The "strongest immortal" depends heavily on the fictional universe, but contenders include cosmic entities like Dormammu (DC/Marvel), reality-bending figures like Doctor Manhattan, powerful mythological beings like Sun Wukong, or god-tier cultivators like Han Li (A Record of a Mortal’s Journey to Immortality).
