System Bestows me with Immortality, Living on to Eventually Become Invincible

Chapter 29 – We cannot determine this world and this environment

Chen Xun vividly remembered the little girl, her crisp voice thanking him still echoing in his mind.

A shiver ran through Chen Xun's heart as he slowly said, "Your mother's... utterly ruthless, not even sparing children."

"Moo~ Moo!" Black Bull was still nudging the few people, trying to wake them up.

"They're not cultivators; they must be some kind of bandits."

Chen Xun squatted and looked up into the distance. All the corpses here were of the elderly, women, and children; the killer must still be after the locals.

Two water jars and some clothes were left where they were by Chen Xun and Black Bull, as two Mountain-axing axes slowly spun, slicing the falling snowflakes in half.@@@@

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Boom—

The thick snow around them shook, and a fierce sonic boom filled the air. They stood as if on a sea of snow, with great waves of snow surging behind them, their momentum overwhelming.

In the distance, dozens of bandits laughed wildly, their broadswords dripping with fresh blood. Now that Panning City was in turmoil and many warriors had been conscripted, who could stop them!

"Big brother, there are more and more people fleeing to Panning City."

One bandit laughed hideously, "They come with all their belongings, a single haul is all fat meat."

"This is the good life."

The leader laughed maniacally, holding his broadsword, "Finally, the world is ours! Men, kill!"

"Yes, big brother!"

"Yes, big brother!"

......

The bandits raised their broadswords and responded loudly, leaving a trail of corpses behind them. Killing and looting was exhilarating; there used to be soldiers to hunt them down, but now they were all on the battlefield, and life was comfortable.

Screams of agony rose as several helpless locals fell and died, their eyes filled with deep resentment, unwilling to close even in death, as they were so close to safety...

The bandits laughed even louder, looting the gold and silver jewelry from the clothes of the fleeing locals who liked to carry these things.

Suddenly, there was a commotion behind them, and all the bandits looked back, squinting their eyes, wondering why the snow was splashing so high.

"What the hell is that!"

The leader spat, clad in animal skins, standing at the forefront with his sword, the snow too thick to see clearly.

"Huh? Is something running?"

Chen Xun had finally raised his World Soul to level 20, planning to start increasing his mana next year to see if his internal mana would grow.

More and more people were fleeing from the other side of the Cloud Mountains, some starved to death on the road and were eaten by vultures, some were killed by wild beasts, and some were robbed by bandits...

Some people passed by their cave, and it seemed that the outside world was becoming increasingly unstable.

Seeing many locals suffering from hunger and cold, Chen Xun and Black Bull would quietly give them some smoked meat, but they no longer had much contact. Who can truly understand the karma of this world?

In such times, cultivators' desire for strength grew even stronger, clamoring to join the ten great immortal sects rather than living aimlessly in the mortal world.

Compared to the outside world's misery, the ascension conference was in full swing, even more fervent than in previous years, with hearts set higher than the heavens, longing for the vast world of cultivating immortality.

Inside the cave, a man and a bull lived in peace, each doing their own thing, the outside world's turmoil irrelevant to them.

"Bull, I'm going to the ascension conference; wait for me here."

This time, Chen Xun didn't plan to wear a hood or bring Black Bull, to be on the safe side.

"Moo Moo!" Black Bull clung to Chen Xun with its mouth, as they had never been apart.

"I'll be back in a day; if I don't return, come find me."

"Moo?"

"Really, when have I ever lied to you? If it's quick, I'll be back in half a day."

Chen Xun said with a smile, as they had run out of spiritual herbs and pill furnaces, he had to make the trip.

"Moo~"

Black Bull nodded, moved the giant stone from the cave entrance, and waited there for Chen Xun.

Chen Xun dashed out, carrying four medicine cases with four hundred-year-old spiritual herbs inside, no longer using World Soul to conceal his cultivation level.

Hesitating, Black Bull chased after him, escorting Chen Xun a long way until he was about to enter deep into the mountains before leaving, constantly mooing.

Chen Xun looked back three steps at a time, only quickening his pace after Black Bull disappeared from sight.

"There are quite a few more people around."

On the way, Chen Xun encountered many cultivators who, seeing his seventh level of Qi cultivation, all respectfully made way, their eyes filled with reverence.

In a world where strength is revered, the accomplished are always first, and Chen Xun was exceedingly low-key, engaging with no one.

After entering Nine Stars Valley, he moved with ease, hearing about the sale of pamphlets and smiling subtly, his eyes flashing with an indescribable meaning.

There were also more cultivators selling goods in the valley, bartering to increase their chances in the trials.

He walked into a small sect's pavilion, adjusted his emotions, and with a mournful face, Chen Xun stepped into the pavilion.
