I Am A Corpse Collector In The World Of Cultivating Immortals

Chapter 44: I Am the True Sovereign

At night, Heaven Burial Mountain was calm.

The entire Cangwu Immortal Sect appeared peaceful, and no one knew that after tonight, a Gold Core True Sovereign would emerge.

In the underground palace built by Chen Shen, he sat cross-legged in the cultivation room.

All his attention was focused on the transforming Dantian.

The Dantian was majestic, and the vast waves of mana continuously condensed, gradually transforming from liquid to solid.

Boom!

Chen Shen suddenly looked up and saw terrifying heavenly thunder gathering in the sky through the ground, with dark clouds covering it.

"Someone is Transcending Tribulation?"

"Is this the Gold Core Tribulation? It's so terrifying!"

Many experts were awakened and stared at the calamity clouds in the sky with scalp tingling.

However, soon, the thunder tribulation dissipated, and the dark clouds dispersed, as if nothing had happened.

"Is someone Transcending Tribulation, or is there a spiritual treasure or rare treasure being born?" A True Sovereign whispered, his eyes filled with doubt.

At the same time, Chen Shen in the underground palace was startled.

He thought he was about to Transcend Tribulation, but fortunately, nothing happened.

In the Dantian, the mana continued to wash and transform, and a faint golden embryonic form of the Gold Core kept solidifying.

It is said that when cultivating to the highest level, there will be anomalies that cause great chaos.

But Chen Shen's cultivation technique seemed plain, and the mana seemed ordinary. However, he knew deeply that under this seemingly ordinary mana lay a terrifying power.

Everything returned to simplicity, returning to the essence.

Moreover, his body seemed to have lost all signs of life, with every pore tightly closed, like a dead person devoid of all vitality.

This was a way to avoid the thunder tribulation, with no external aura and immense internal changes.

Chen Shen clearly felt that every inch of his flesh and blood was being reshaped by a gentle mana.

His internal organs were rumbling, making a sound like thunder.

His body, which was already like a spiritual treasure, underwent another transformation, and a faint fragrance began to emanate from his body.

Chen Shen felt that his physical body had become holy. Even if he were to pass away at this moment, his body would probably remain immortal and unchanged for thousands of years.

"The Qing Emperor's Longevity Art, such a profound technique. It is not only ranked in the top three in the eyes of that Immortal Emperor, but I think it can be considered the best in the world."

Chen Shen whispered.

The intense changes were not only happening to his flesh and Dantian, but also to his terrifying spiritual power.

He had been cultivating the Longevity Art for a long time, and he himself was not sure how far his spiritual power had transformed.

However, Chen Shen understood one fact: there was no True Sovereign in Cangwu who could match his spiritual power.

He could cover the entire Cangwu with his divine sense, and no one could perceive it. Even if he wanted to peek at the female True Sovereign bathing, there would be no problem.

But spiritual power involved a higher level of manifestation, seemingly only achievable with Soul Formation.

Previously, Chen Shen could only use his divine sense in a rudimentary way, exploring the surroundings and using telekinesis and other small tricks.

However, at this moment, it seemed that he was about to gain control!

With a divine presence three feet above his head, Chen Shen felt a slight itch in the center of his eyebrows, followed by...

He saw a mud-like sculpture in his spiritual sea at his brow, in a dilapidated state.

Crack!

The mud-like sculpture cracked, and golden light seeped out from within.

As his Gold Core solidified and his physical body transformed, his spiritual power followed closely behind.

Bang!

Not long after the cracking sound echoed in his mind, a dazzling golden Primordial Spirit emerged from the clay sculpture.

A mini version of the golden Chen Shen appeared, at the half-step Gold Core realm.

Two realms ahead of cultivators at the same level!

"I refuse to accept it. How can I fall here? I want to become an immortal."

Suddenly, Chen Shen found himself in a vast world, covered in blood, with his vitality about to extinguish.

That sound of unwillingness seemed to have come from him.

Chen Shen suddenly understood.

Yes, this is a breakthrough in the face of disaster, avoiding heavenly thunder and guarding against inner demons.

"I am the hanging scroll, and the evil thoughts of demons and monsters will disperse."

Chen Shen's body trembled, and the illusion shattered.

He had endured for so many years, abstaining from women and not showing off, how could he have inner demons?

Next, the three spirits of vitality, energy, and spirit advanced together, undergoing transformation and evolution.

The Primordial Spirit figure emerged from his brow, and a surging and majestic golden light illuminated the cultivation room.

With a thought, the golden light converged, and the Primordial Spirit figure turned into a flying rainbow soaring into the sky.

Of course, no one noticed this process.

Chen Shen's Primordial Spirit stood in the sky, overlooking the realm of Cangwu.

Then, he traversed the heavens and the earth, wanting to imitate the immortals and travel from the North Sea to the Cangwu region.

But in a certain realm, he discovered five or six strands of golden light from Primordial Spirits. He instantly retreated and blinked back to the depths of his brow.

"The world is crowded and vast, with strong people everywhere. We must endure." Chen Shen opened his eyes and whispered.

Before long, he covered the entire Cangwu Sect with his divine sense.

In a certain cave, a true immortal was meditating and absorbing spiritual energy.

What he didn't notice was that there was a golden sword hanging above his head.

"Forget it, I'll kill him when I leave one day." Chen Shen retracted his Primordial Spirit and focused his mind on the breakthrough.

...

The breakthrough lasted for about three or four hours and it was already late at night.

"So this is the true immortal of the Gold Core stage!" Chen Shen pondered, carefully comprehending the power of the true immortal.

At this moment, he had completed the breakthrough and became a cultivator at the Gold Core stage.

Boom!

Now there was no need to conceal his aura. As his pores expanded, all his energy surged out.

A huge pressure from the Gold Core spread throughout the underground palace, and the entire underground could clearly feel the shaking.

Tearing!

Chen Shen's body shed a layer of dead skin, which was the old skin that had fallen off during the physical transformation.

He tore open this layer of skin, revealing smooth and flawless skin like jade, exuding a vibrant new breath.

Chen Shen took out a high-grade spiritual weapon.

Having become a master of refining through collecting corpses, he casually refined this spiritual weapon.

He aimed the sword at his abdomen and cut directly.

Without any accidents, his body remained unharmed, but the thin sword body became riddled with cracks.

"The flesh becomes holy, leaving a fragrant scent." Chen Shen was pleased with himself.

He went to the bathroom, burned incense, bathed, and changed clothes.

"This Gold Core is bigger than a pigeon egg!"

Chen Shen spread out his hand, revealing a Gold Core Dao Fruit that was slightly larger than a pigeon egg. It had a restrained aura and emitted a faint golden light.

He swallowed the Gold Core, then came out of the wooden barrel and changed into clean clothes.

"Liu Xiong just fell, so I should have a simple meal to show my gratitude. But becoming a true immortal is also a rare event, so there should be food and wine. Liu Xiong would understand."

Chen Shen walked out, ready to celebrate at the Manxiang Tower.

The market in the cultivation world never closed, and everyone was like James Bond, so there was no need to worry about not having food.

He took one step onto the sky bridge, then another step, entering the Cangwu Mountain.

Chen Shen looked back at the disciple on guard duty, and whispered softly:

"I'm still a bit slow. I should visit the scripture pavilion of the Cangwu Sect when I have time."

He had no lack of attack methods, and his cultivation techniques were even more advanced.

The only thing he lacked was an unparalleled footwork technique for escaping.

For example, being able to travel thousands of miles in an instant.

"There are no true immortals in Cangwu Mountain. I'll come whenever I want in the future."

Chen Shen swept his divine sense over every inch of Cangwu Mountain, and then revealed a joyful expression.
