Simplification System: From Perfect Arrow Skill to Immortal

Chapter 415 - 331: World-Ending Buddha, Lightning Thunderclap Eagle, Demon God Tribe

Everyone was trapped in grief and fear, worried that the next time they ran into more Demon Beasts, they would be the ones to die.

"The Path to Immortality is full of crisis—if you don’t even have this bit of courage, you shouldn’t be here at all!"

Lin Chang’sheng looked at the fearful disciples and scolded them harshly.

"Daoist Lin is right, this kind of difficulty is nothing! Everyone, pick yourselves up!"

Zhuo Yijian also cheered from the side.

Only then did everyone come out of their panicked state from before.

Although they were all prodigies from major Sects,

They had not truly faced life and death very often. In the face of mortality, no one is without fear.

Unless that person is truly strong enough.

"Do you know why the magical items in your hands make the Demon Beasts reluctant to approach?"

Lin Chang’sheng continued, looking at everyone.

Everyone looked around in confusion, unable to answer.

"Because in that temple, powerful cultivators once fell. These items absorbed the aura of those mighty figures, so the Demon Beasts fear them. If you can absorb the strong aura within these magical items, it might even help you raise your own cultivation."

Lin Chang’sheng reminded them kindly.

As these magical items left the temple, their aura would gradually fade. It was better for these young ones to seize the chance and absorb them now—it could greatly improve their cultivation.

Hearing what Lin Chang’sheng said, those holding treasures from the temple immediately sat down cross-legged, beginning to absorb the mighty aura within the items.

"There really is a powerful aura!"

Yu Lingfei absorbed some and was surprised.

She had thought it was the Buddhist essence of the temple that scared off the Demon Beasts, not a strong aura.

Even just a wisp of this strong aura meant massive improvement for them.

Watching each disciple sit down and cultivate, the Wine Sword Immortal couldn’t help but smile in relief.

He truly hoped these Seeds, carrying all the hope of the Immortal Relic Land, could keep growing stronger, and eventually take root in the Immortal Realm.

Bzzzz—

As the disciples continued to absorb the powerful aura within their items, some began to break through, their bodies glowing with radiance.

"Hell yeah! I broke through to Golden Core Late Stage! Hahaha—"

Cao De opened his eyes with excitement across his face.

Seeing this, Lin Chang’sheng was quite surprised too. He hadn’t expected Cao De to improve so quickly.

Lin Chang’sheng took out a Flawless Nascent Soul Divine Pill from his Storage Bag and tossed it right to Cao De.

"This Pill will help you form a Flawless Nascent Soul!"

Lin Chang’sheng announced.

Cao De caught the elixir, and upon hearing this, was absolutely overjoyed, "A...A Flawless Nascent Soul? Brother Chang’sheng, from now on you’re not just my bro, you’re my old man! No—next time I see a pretty girl, I’ll let you have first pick!"

As he said this, Cao De wanted to give Lin Chang’sheng a big bear hug, but having just broken through and with his body still reeking from absorbing all that mighty aura, Lin Chang’sheng slapped him flying with one strike.

"Go bathe before you try hugging anyone!"

Lin Chang’sheng waved his hand, dispersing the foul smell.

"Anyone who breaks through to Golden Core Late Stage gets a Flawless Nascent Soul Divine Pill!"

Lin Chang’sheng promised loudly.

He hoped everyone would seize the moment to cultivate.

The nearby disciples were so fired up at these words. Breakthrough to Golden Core Late Stage and you get a Flawless Nascent Soul Pill as a reward?

Everyone instantly cultivated with renewed vigor.

Unfortunately, most of them only managed to reach Golden Core Middle Stage, or at best, Early Stage.

Only Cao De, Yu Lingfei, and Gao Ziyue broke through to Golden Core Late Stage, and Lin Chang’sheng gave each of them a Flawless Nascent Soul Divine Pill in turn.

Even though the ingredients for this Pill were extremely rare,

Lin Chang’sheng had managed to collect enough, and even if he gave them all away, he could still refine more.

After all, he still had plenty of the three main ingredients needed for refining the Elixir.

With the help of the Flawless Nascent Soul Divine Pill, it would be much easier for Cao De, Gao Ziyue, and Yu Lingfei to break through to Nascent Soul, and they could even attain a Flawless Nascent Soul.

Rumble—

Just then, a thunderous boom resounded from the sky.

Lin Chang’sheng immediately went to the cave entrance. Thunder like this was rare.

Every time it happened, it meant something living had shown up in the open sky, drawing thunder down to strike.

When Lin Chang’sheng got to the cave mouth, he saw a massive beast covering the clouds and sun approach in the distance, with more than ten people fleeing for their lives ahead of it.

Some were already escaping through the air, only to be struck by thunder and killed.

"There are actually people here?"

Lin Chang’sheng was a bit surprised to see humans in this place.

Without hesitation, he flashed forward, intending to rescue these people from the Demon Beast’s jaws.

But don’t be fooled by its size—its wingspan stretched over a hundred meters.

Its speed in the air was lightning fast. With one dive, it slaughtered five people, blood spraying everywhere.

In the instant it dove, Lin Chang’sheng saw what kind it was—a massive eagle of interwoven silver and black, crackling with lightning.

Arcs of electricity flickered around its body.

The Thundering Eagle naturally wielded the Power of Thunder, so it had no fear of the lightning in the sky.

"Die!"

Lin Chang’sheng charged forth, summoning the Heaven-Opening Saber and slashing down fiercely in an instant.

The powerful Blade Aura distorted the air itself.

As the Lightning Thunderclap Eagle dived again, ready to slaughter more, the devastating Blade Aura slammed squarely into its body.

Rumble—

Even though this slash was incredibly strong, it wasn’t fatal to the Lightning Thunderclap Eagle.

It simply sent the beast crashing to the ground, knocking loose a few feathers.

"Such strong defenses!"

Lin Chang’sheng’s heart pounded—this Demon Beast was already beyond the Divinity Transformation Stage, completely out of his league.

"Get out of here! This Lightning Thunderclap Eagle can control thunder and lightning, you can’t take it on!"

Among the six people Lin Chang’sheng rescued, one shouted, urging him to flee, before bolting themselves.

Lin Chang’sheng snatched up two Lightning Thunderclap Eagle feathers from the ground, and without pausing, turned and fled as well.

Boom—

The next instant, the Lightning Thunderclap Eagle unleashed a storm of thunder and lightning on Lin Chang’sheng and the others.

Three people were too slow to dodge and were blasted into bloody mist.

"This way!"

Lin Chang’sheng grabbed the survivors and darted straight into the cave where they’d been hiding before.

Even fleeing, another person was struck dead by lightning. In the end only two people were saved.

The Lightning Thunderclap Eagle circled the area for the time it takes an incense stick to burn. Failing to find any trace of Lin Chang’sheng and the others, it finally flew off with its kills.

"Which Tribe are you from?"

The two Lin Chang’sheng had rescued—a man and a woman—stood before him.

The man was middle-aged, around forty, with a scruffy beard.

The girl looked about seventeen or eighteen, just barely an adult, her body thin and underfed, but her eyes were full of resolve, not a hint of innocence or fear.

Obvious at a glance—they must have lived in this kind of place for years, honed on the knife-edge of life and death.

"We’re not from any other Tribe. We just arrived. So—is there a sizeable Human Race here too?"

Lin Chang’sheng was surprised by the man’s words.

He’d thought all the humans here must have perished already. He hadn’t expected anyone to survive.

"Just arrived?"

The middle-aged man scanned the group in the cave, noticing their clothing was indeed unusual.

"Rare visitors indeed! No one’s come to this Land of Evil in years. You must’ve blundered in here by accident!"

The man could tell Lin Chang’sheng and the others were in a tough spot, so he showed a bitter smile.

Trying to survive here wasn’t an easy thing.

"Well then, you all might as well come with me. Why not seek shelter with our Demon God Tribe for now?"

The man, seeing that Lin Chang’sheng had saved their lives, extended an invitation.

Lin Chang’sheng and the others had no other options left, and joining a major Tribe would probably increase their odds of survival, so they didn’t refuse.

"Sorry for the trouble, then!"

Lin Chang’sheng replied.

After waiting a bit longer, making sure the Lightning Thunderclap Eagle was gone, the middle-aged man led everyone toward the Demon God Tribe.

"Don’t trust everything that guy says!"

The Wine Sword Immortal whispered, clearly uneasy. Out here, you can’t believe strangers easily!

Otherwise, by the time you realize you’ve been set up, it’s already too late.

"We have no other choice—let’s give it a shot."

Lin Chang’sheng still didn’t fully trust the man, but if he sensed anything off, he would strike first without hesitation.
