Immortality and its Variations

I was looking at the sky 🌌 full of stars, planets, and galaxies... And I ended up having an idea, if a character has type 3 immortality (which is the ability to regenerate practically everything) and I ended up wondering if such a character had the ability to regenerate your cells that prevent all cells from deteriorating over time, wouldn't we get type 1 immortality? The ability to live forever and ever?


Due to all the cells in the body go through a progressive aging process, so we get old and die from old age or virus disease ^⁠⁠_⁠ ^

Don't mind the image, it's totally random to fit with immortality, I'm not talking about DB.
 
Works of fiction have the nasty habit of having a power exist while ignoring all the implications it brings to the table, as well as any theoretical byproducts. In other words, it's possible but we can't assume it is the case by default.
I see, I see a lot of cultivation manga using this to get around old age lol
 
No, it is not immortality type 1 unless it has been stated.

According to this, every immortal type gets automatically type 1

Time travel in a nutshell.

But yeah without further context, it won't automatically get type 1 but this QnA does remind me of a article on certain species of jellyfish that I read a couple years ago, that are functionally immortal due their regenerative abilities.

Since you're here, could you answer me one thing?

Destroying such a character to the last molecule with your energy gains which ability?

Yes.
I'm not talking about erasing, but destroying at that level.
They are the same thing.

you said this:
Destroying such a character to the last molecule
Rather than just reducing something to its constituent parts, this ability leaves absolutely nothing behind ~ Existence Erasure page
You were specifically talking about destroying the character to the point that not even a molecule remained. This is text-book, clear-cut existence erasure.

If the destruction of the character was not to that degree, that would be completely different. Instead, it would be Deconstruction.
