I Am A Corpse Collector In The World Of Cultivating Immortals

Chapter 68: The Destruction of Cangwu

Buzz!

Chen Shen quickly distanced himself, but his divine sense still remained within the range of Cangwu Sect.

Suddenly, a tremendous disturbance arose around Lin Xuan, revealing two indistinct figures.

Shortly after, after flying over a thousand miles, his divine sense could no longer reach the territory of Cangwu Immortal Sect.

However, he could visibly see a terrifying white light shining over there, like the scorching sun.

"Junior brother, what is that?"

"Nascent Soul!"

Mu Xiaojin was dumbfounded, "How is that possible? Didn't they say that Nascent Souls are not allowed to interfere with the Upper Sect?"

"I'm not sure either," Chen Shen shook his head.

"We can look into this later, but for now, let's go to Cang Country."

...

One day later, in the capital city of Cang Country.

This was a secular dynasty, ruled by mortals despite being under the control of the Immortal Sect, just like Cangwu Immortal Sect under the Upper Sect.

Whether it was war or peace in the mortal dynasty, they didn't care.

Therefore, Cang Country had no feelings about the destruction of Cangwu Sect, as always.

It didn't matter which sect ruled.

But if the news spread, there might be a few places where people would be saddened.

After all, most of the cultivators in Cangwu came from various secular countries.

"Junior brother, fortunately, I have experienced many things before and prepared a lot of gold and silver. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to afford to stay in an inn in the capital city this time."

The two of them rented a room in a restaurant.

"Sister, you stay here, I need to go out and do something."

"What is it? Oh, I remember, junior brother is from Cang Country. This time coming to the capital city can be considered a triumphant return. Are you going to visit your family?"

After receiving a nod from Chen Shen, Mu Xiaojin smiled again.

"We have been cultivating together every day, and our future is already set. Why not take sister-in-law to meet your parents? I also hope to gain their approval."

Chen Shen shook his head and said, "It's not to see my parents, but to visit secretly. My heart is set on longevity, and I want to go to a broader place. If we meet and then part again, it will only increase the sadness. When I left that year, my parents cried their eyes out and didn't want them to suffer again."

After speaking, Chen Shen left the restaurant.

He walked through the bustling market, and memories of the original body flooded his mind like a tide.

Along the familiar yet unfamiliar streets, he headed towards the Chen Mansion.

The Chen family had been officials for generations, and if the original body hadn't been chosen, he would probably be an official by now.

Lost in his thoughts, several figures approached from behind, chatting and laughing.

They were all wearing official robes, and Chen Shen turned his head to see one of the old men, his father, who shared the same bloodline. He was in his prime back then, but now his hair was white.

When Chen's father passed by him, he only glanced at him briefly without feeling anything strange.

Chen Shen had changed his appearance, so the other party naturally couldn't recognize him.

Buzz!

A fluctuation arose and subsided, and he followed his father back to the Chen Mansion.

Chen Shen walked through the courtyard of the Chen Mansion like a familiar stranger.

He saw his mother, who had turned gray, and his elder brother, who was filial at home.

After so many years, his siblings should have all gotten married.

He didn't stay long in the Chen Mansion. With his divine sense, he checked on his second brother and several younger siblings.

They were all doing well and had no worries. Even his youngest sister, who was still a child back then, had already married and had children of her own.

However, his fifth sister surprised him. She was in her thirties and still unmarried.

Instead... she was involved with three different men!

Chen Shen saw his fifth sister meeting her lover and then meeting another person, and their relationship was extremely intimate...

Three days later.

"As I wished, I have no more worries. It's time to set off."

Chen Shen stayed in the royal city for three days before leaving.

After some consideration, he expanded his spiritual awareness to its maximum range.

Covering an area of thousands of miles.

Finally, in a small town, he saw Lu Changqing's wife, Yu Panqiu.

She didn't die. She escaped from that disaster and now lives with her child and family.

"Brother Changqing, it's time to rest in peace." He whispered, and then headed north.

...

Lingxi City, the center of the Hundred Nations, is where several powerful immortal sects converge.

It is also the city where the Hundred Nations Immortal Fate event is held, spanning tens of thousands of miles from the Ten Nations of Cangwu.

Chen Shen and the others traveled day and night, finally approaching this magnificent city after more than half a month.

"It's really grand!"

At night, Chen Shen and Mu Xiaojin stood on a mountain top more than ten miles away, looking at the city from a distance.

The lights were bright, and occasionally divine rainbows streaked across the sky, flying towards the city.

"In the Hundred Nations, there are Soul Formation ancestors, but the highest cultivation level when traveling outside is generally Nascent Soul. It's dangerous for me to go directly with my Gold Core cultivation level. I should achieve Nascent Soul before making any plans."

Then, the two of them moved five hundred miles away from Lingxi City and decided to settle in a deserted mountain forest.

"The spirit stones should be enough to sustain us for two or three years." Chen Shen muttered to himself.

He broke the ground in a place overgrown with weeds and dug down a hundred feet, creating a several hundred square meter underground palace.

Because they didn't plan to stay for long, it was relatively simple.

After a few busy days, the two of them concealed their cultivation levels and went to a small town a hundred miles away to eat and drink.

"Have you heard? In the southern corner of the Hundred Nations, there was a sect that was annihilated, and it was said that it was done by an outsider's Nascent Soul."

"This matter has spread throughout the Hundred Nations. The upper sect was originally furious and wanted to find the culprit, but in the end, they let it go."

"Oh? Why?"

"I heard... that the Nascent Soul who destroyed the sect has advanced to Soul Formation. The upper sect can only swallow their anger."

"Finally, the upper sect took back the territories of the Ten Nations and sent cultivators to manage them, but they didn't gain much in return."

Just as they entered the restaurant, the two of them learned about the cause and effect.

"So that's how it is!" Chen Shen thought to himself, exchanged a glance with Mu Xiaojin, and both felt relieved.

One year later.

"My Gold Core cultivation is complete. It's time to prepare for the advancement to Nascent Soul."

After a year of hard work, Chen Shen reached the peak of True Immortal.

Today, one of them had a breakthrough in cultivation, and the other reached the peak. They were ready to celebrate in the small town.

"Let's go!"

As they approached the town, Mu Xiaojin's expression changed, and she suddenly pulled Chen Shen back.

"What's the matter, Senior Sister?" he asked in confusion.

"I saw someone familiar."

"Are you sure it's someone familiar and not an enemy?"

Mu Xiaojin smiled and nodded slightly.

"It is indeed an enemy. This person caused me to suffer from frost poison back then."

She paused for a moment and continued, "Actually, now my cultivation is on par with hers, and with Junior Brother's guidance, my Four Seasons Sword Technique has already reached perfection. Senior Sister is confident that she can kill this old enemy with a single sword strike. However, after spending so many years with Junior Brother, I have learned to be cautious. I have decided to settle the score after I achieve Soul Formation."

"Oh?" Chen Shen couldn't help but look at his companion with admiration.

Mu Xiaojin glared at him and smiled, "Junior Brother, don't underestimate Senior Sister. I'm not foolish. The other party has a Soul Formation ancestor, so revenge won't be easy. Of course, if it were before I met Junior Brother, I would have done it without hesitation, enjoying the pleasure of revenge. But now, Senior Sister understands that staying alive is the most important thing."

"Senior Sister has my full support."

"That's because Junior Brother taught me well."

"Tonight, Junior Brother will teach me some more."
