Immortality: My cultivation Has No Bottleneck

Chapter 266 - 132: The Shadow of Beast Tide, Invincible Under the Golden Core (Seeking Monthly Tickets with 8k Combined Chapters)_4



Many people vanished without a trace after they fell, only a few could preserve their bodies, yet the ratio was sparse.

Like the ashes jar that Xiang Chen was now receiving, it represented a symbolic meaning akin to a tomb of honors, but in fact, there were no ashes in there.

Liang Sheng at this moment also felt discomfort, similar to Xiang Chen, because he had received the terrible news that Xiao Qin and Pei Tianshi had perished on the beast tide battlefield, and hence, were forever separated from the mortal world.

This was the first time that Liang Sheng had witnessed the fall of cultivators under the different races, from this he truly experienced the agony of the beast tide war and his heart became increasingly apprehensive towards it.

Just then, the Disciple from the Internal Affairs Office who was handing over the ashes jar suddenly asked, “Who is Junior Apprentice Brother Yang Cheng?”

Xiang Chen was puzzled upon hearing this and Liang Sheng was at a loss as well, but he stepped forward anyway. The Disciple of the Internal Affairs Office then handed him a jade slip.

“This is a letter sent to you by Daoist Brother Zhou Mo from the Hua Tian Sect. Junior brother, you can check the authentication seal on this jade slip. Rest assured, no one has seen the contents inside.”

While Liang Sheng was feeling strange about this, he didn’t show much on his face. After receiving the jade slip, he thanked the disciple of the Internal Affairs Office repeatedly.

Having completed the handover of affairs, the disciple from the Internal Affairs Office left directly. After all, there was a profusion of matters needing attention in the Dan Ding Sect at the moment, and he could not afford to waste his time.

Although Xiang Chen was slightly curious as to why Zhou Mo from the Hua Tian Sect would write a letter to Liang Sheng, he had no time to attend to such small matters.

Burying the departed for their eternal rest was the significant task.

“All disciples listen to my command, gather behind me and accompany me in sending off the heroes of Green Cloud Peak to their final resting place in Green Cloud Peak Cemetery.”

In an instant, all the Foundation Establishment Disciples looked solemn. Liang Sheng also put away the jade slip and followed behind Xiang Chen, step by step towards the graveyard of the Green Cloud Peak.

Perhaps one day in the future, they would also go to the battlefield. If they fell, would they also have someone to send them off on their last journey?

When Xiang Chen and the others had enshrined the ashes of Xiao Qin and the others into the ground, Xiang Chen rose up with solemn expression and read out the Rebirth Mantra one more time. Only then did he leave the cemetery with the others one after another.

However, at this time, Liang Sheng did not leave. He bowed directly in front of the graves of Xiao Qin and the other, then poured out a cup of wine.

Farewell, dear senior brothers.

After that, Liang Sheng went straight to the graveyard where Chen Xiang had been buried before. He sat down on the ground, took out the remaining Fruit Wine, and began to serve himself.

“Senior brother Chen Xiang, both Xiao Qin and the other senior brother have also fallen. I wonder if you’ve met each other. Like you, I hope there will be another world after death where you all can reunite.”

At this moment, without knowing why, Liang Sheng felt somewhat melancholic. Unconsciously he had reached the ripe age of 724. For ordinary people, Chen Xiang and the others, as cultivators, lived exceptionally long lives. Yet now they become lifeless bones. They no longer existed in this world.

This kind of situation would happen again. The situation where people around him would vanish would continue for a long time. When Liang Sheng was still living in the secular world, he didn’t feel so sentimental, as everyone in the mortal world had limited life spans.

Compared to the secular world, cultivators lived longer lives. But still, not many people could accompany Liang Sheng for a long time.

Solitude would become his life’s theme, as everyone else might become ceaseless travelers in his life, with only himself dancing with time.

After a while, Liang Sheng’s emotional upheaval subsided. He rose and said farewell one last time to Chen Xiang and the others before leaving for his cave mansion.

After sitting down, Liang Sheng took out the jade slip that Zhou Mo had sent through someone else. After verifying that the authentication seal had no issues, he carefully opened it.

Hmm?

Has the situation on the beast tide battlefield gotten so severe?

Zhou Mo even informed him that the immortal-mortal passage has been interrupted, making it impossible even if he wanted to enter the mortal world and escape the beast tide battlefield.

Zhou Mo had sensed something wrong previously and wanted the clansmen in the Qi Training Realm within his Sect to retreat into the mortal world temporarily to avoid calamity.

However, he didn’t expect the previous dense fog to intensify due to the changes in the spiritual tide. Even with the Black Iron Command at hand, they could not locate the entrance to the mortal world.

What’s more terrifying is that they didn’t know what kind of monster existed within the spiritual fog in the immortal-mortal passage. Even for Foundation Establishment Cultivators, accidents were likely to occur in the dense fog.

The reason for Zhou Mo’s letter was simple. For some reason, he and his clansmen saw the current beast tide as more complex than it seemed on the surface. Hence they were warning Liang Sheng to make preparations.

Liang Sheng could generally guess the reason why Zhou Mo warned him. It might be because he considered Liang Sheng as a great fortune omen.

Zhou Mo was making provisions for his own retreat. That’s why he would explain the situation of the immortal-mortal passage to him. It was highly likely that they confirmed this after personal experiments.

As one of the Three Sects and Six Orders, the Dan Ding Sect had its own market and naturally had a designated immortal-mortal passage leading to the mortal world under its jurisdiction.

But from Zhou Mo’s warning, it could be inferred that retreating to the mortal world to avoid disaster through the immortal-mortal passage was indeed no longer the best choice.

If Zhou Mo and his clansmen were unified in the belief that the beast tide has changed, then naturally Liang Sheng was even more worried. What if the beast tide became uncontrollable and invaded the Sect territory, what should he do?

At this moment, Liang Sheng was being extremely cautious. Xiao Qin and the others perished on the battlefield. If the beast tide invades, he couldn’t guarantee his own safety.

However, at this moment, he couldn’t flee irrationally either. As the Dan Ding Sect was seeking to ensure the safety of the Sect at that time, they had invariably made tight surveillance arrangements within the Sect.

Which Sect would allow disturbances to arise in their own rear base? The answer was: absolutely impossible..
