Chu Yang looked up in surprise. "Isn't this the same as cancer cells?" Theoretically, yes. Cancer cells are capable of granting a human immortality. The death of a human being, fundamentally, is due to the fact that human cells have a finite number of divisions.

Once the majority of the body's cells reach this state of senescence, a person's life comes to an end.
