I Am A Corpse Collector In The World Of Cultivating Immortals

Chapter 38: Internal and External Troubles

"Junior brother, I said last time that I would come to celebrate with you after avenging our enemies, but I didn't expect it to happen so soon."

At the dining table, Lu Changqing said with a smile, reminiscing about his decisive battle with Han Jun.

Of course, all of this was thanks to the true interpretation of swordsmanship. With his annotations, he refined his swordsmanship to perfection. With seven layers of Qi Refining, he could be considered invincible, able to push through all the way.

"In that case, congratulations to senior brother for removing that thorn from your heart. Your future cultivation will be smooth without any attachments."

Chen Shen raised his glass to toast and congratulate him, but then he said:

"Speaking of which, Han Jun's backer is Cheng Ren. You have to be careful and not give him any handle to retaliate against you."

Upon hearing this, a hint of helplessness flashed across Lu Changqing's face.

"Junior brother, I'm not saying this to criticize you, but you're being too cautious. Some things don't need to be considered too much. We cultivate immortality to seek revenge and enjoy the process. Cheng Ren is not Han Jun's father. He won't kill the small to get to the big, or kill the big to get to the old. Besides, I am in Yunhai, and Cheng Ren has always been in Cangwu. The heavens are high and the emperor is far away. His reach doesn't extend that far."

"We must be cautious in all matters and consider everything thoroughly."

Chen Shen didn't agree with this. He always adhered to the principle of speaking and acting cautiously. Either don't do it at all, or do it decisively, preventing any possible accidents from happening.

Cut the grass and eliminate the roots, eliminate evil completely!

"You underestimate me, junior brother. I have established a formidable group with Jin Ao senior brother in Yunhai. There are even Foundation Building cultivators among them. Why worry about a newly accepted disciple?"

Lu Changqing waved his hand dismissively.

"Then I wish senior brother a bright future. When we meet again in the future, I hope you will have become a Foundation Building disciple."

After drinking for a while, Lu Changqing took his leave in a hurry.

Chen Shen accompanied him to the spaceship and waved goodbye.

Mid-July, it's time for a breakthrough.

Boom!

A muffled sound echoed, and Chen Shen, who was cultivating, suddenly felt a warm flow surging within his body, feeling a sense of satisfaction.

"I've reached the fifth level of Foundation Building." Chen Shen opened his eyes and said softly.

Since his medium-grade spiritual root reached perfection, his cultivation speed had increased compared to before, allowing him to make breakthroughs in just a few months.

He got up and walked out of the underground palace, planning to have a drink at Manxiang Tower.

Since the deaths of three Gold Core cultivators from both sides more than two months ago, both sides had become more restrained.

The resources in Yunhai had been distributed more or less evenly, but there were still occasional minor conflicts and casualties.

Bodies were constantly being transported back to Cangwu from Yunhai, and Chen Shen naturally accepted them all.

Now, the benefits of collecting bodies were not significant. Apart from deepening his understanding of the Dao Foundation, the most he could do was to replenish his spiritual roots.

Unfortunately, since his medium-grade spiritual root reached perfection, there had been no progress in advancing to a high-grade spiritual root. It would probably take a long time before he could promote to a high-grade spiritual root.

On the other hand, Chen Shen's colleague, who was also at the fifth level of Qi Refining, was no longer as indifferent as before.

He was polite when he saw Chen Shen and listened to the bell for collecting bodies every day. He wasn't as foolish as Meng Bo and was quite cautious.

He was probably scared by Lu Changqing.

Dong!

Just as Chen Shen reached the sky bridge, he saw a huge ship sailing from the sky.

Without much thought, someone must have died in Yunhai again.

Splash!

More than thirty disciples' bodies fell from the sky and piled up together.

Chen Shen didn't show himself and turned back to his courtyard.

At the same time, in the main hall of the First Peak.

"Have they not arrived yet?" Ye Shuang sat at the head of the long table and asked.

Standing beside her was a Foundation Building cultivator.

"Reporting to the young sect master, Elder Moyu said he is in seclusion and cannot come."

"What about the other elders?"

"Many elders said they have matters to attend to and cannot come."

Ye Shuang's eyes turned cold, and she said in a cold voice, "Didn't you tell them what this meeting is about?"

"I said it, but I didn't even get to see those elders. They were all sent away by their disciples."

Bang!

A True Immortal slammed the table: "This is outrageous! Do they still have any regard for my Ye family? Do they still recognize the Young Master?"

In addition to several True Immortals surnamed Ye, there were also many elders from other families in the council hall. One of them spoke frankly:

"I suppose they are dissatisfied with the Young Master's recent actions. To be honest, I also have some reservations about the Young Master's decisions."

Upon hearing this, Ye Shuang's face turned ugly, but he still spoke in a deep voice:

"Since those elders prefer to stay in Cangwu, let them be. We will select three True Immortals to guard Yunhai. Their salaries will be increased fivefold, and if any high-grade spirit stones are produced in the spiritual mine, they will be evenly distributed among the True Immortals stationed in Yunhai. If any divine iron is produced in the iron mine, the True Immortals will have the first choice to exchange for it."

"That's great!" The True Immortals' eyes lit up.

The next day, Chen Shen and his colleagues began to prepare for the burial of the disciples from Yunhai.

From the images of these disciples' lives, he also learned a lot.

"Ye Xun, you're looking for death!"

"Last time we didn't determine a winner, today let me have another go with you, Ye Xun."

From the perspective of a Foundation Building cultivator, there was a conflict between two True Immortals in the sky above Yunhai, and a Gold Core battle broke out again.

"Beast! How dare you harm our Cangwu disciples! You're asking for death!"

This was seen by a Qi Refining cultivator at the seventh level. Originally, a group of Qi Refining cultivators were fighting, and then a Foundation Building cultivator suddenly intervened.

Subsequently, several Foundation Building cultivators from both sides joined the fight, and the situation became chaotic.

"Damn it, Cangwu always bullies the weak. Junior brothers, kill those bastards for me!"

This was seen by a Qi Refining cultivator at the sixth level who was about to provide support.

"What are you looking at?"

"What are you looking at?"

When Chen Shen saw this scene, he was stunned.

Because two Qi Refining cultivators at the third level were still arguing and there was still peace around them.

Then, he heard a group of Cangwu disciples rushing over from behind him. Without saying a word, they all pounced on the Tianmo Sect cultivators who were arguing with the deceased.

Not to mention the cultivators on the other side, even the deceased themselves were confused.

Really! We were just arguing, we never thought of fighting!!

However, the situation escalated, and it eventually turned into a Gold Core battle.

Understanding the cause and result, Chen Shen couldn't help but laugh and cry.

Even the Foundation Building and Gold Core cultivators probably didn't expect it. The cause of this battle was just two small fry arguing.

At the end of August.

A large-scale conflict broke out in Yunhai again. From Qi Refining to Gold Core, both Cangwu and Tianmo sects were engaged in a fierce battle, with blood flowing like rivers.

At night, a disciple urgently reported:

"Elder Wang has fallen!"

The entire sect was in an uproar. Another Gold Core True Immortal had perished, making it the seventh casualty in the Cangwu sect.

"The Cangwu sect hasn't seen so many Gold Core casualties in two hundred years. Ye Shuang is truly despicable!" Mo Yu angrily exclaimed.

At the beginning of September.

Mo Yu and five other Gold Core True Immortals joined forces to force Ye Chen out of seclusion and take charge of the overall situation.

"Do you still recognize me as the Young Master?"

Ye Shuang looked up, his face turning pale as he looked at Mo Yu and the others, whose Gold Core pressure swept across the entire First Peak.

"Ye Shuang, the development of the sect is not child's play. The Cangwu sect is a huge foundation, and you have destroyed half of it. You should practice for a few more years."

Mo Yu showed no respect for Ye Shuang, calling him by his name directly, and stepped forward to Ye Chen's closed-door cultivation place.

"I said my father is in closed-door cultivation. Do you dare to disturb him? Can you bear my father's anger?"

Ye Shuang dared not reveal the truth and could only stand in front of the cave, his face full of anger.

"You should all leave." Ye Teng, a Gold Core True Immortal at the sixth level, sighed. There were several other True Immortals surnamed Ye beside him.

"You can't stop me. No one in the Cangwu sect can stop us. Step aside, or else don't blame us for taking action!"

Mo Yu was very domineering and showed no fear towards the Ye family True Immortals.

"Who said that?" A terrifying aura far more terrifying than all the True Immortals present erupted from a distance.
