I'm Actually a Cultivation Bigshot Chapter 605 - A Hidden Boundary, Chasing Corpses

Chapter 605: A Hidden Boundary, Chasing Corpses

Fallen Immortal Mountain.
It was calm and peaceful.
At the foot of the mountain, a handsome man held a long sword in hand, and was standing completely still in front of a tree, as unmoving as a statue.
He closed his eyes and seemed to be submerged in a strange aura. After a long time, he finally raised his hand, cutting down the three with one slash.
Bang!
It penetrated the tree deeply. That slash was even deeper than the one he did a day ago!
However, he still stopped, and in the same way, only unleashed his second slash after a long time!
Beside him was a book that swayed with the wind.
On the mountain, within the four-part courtyard.
Twang twang twang!
The sound of the zither flowed like water, slowly playing.
Qin Manyun had a white dress on, and her lithe hands were gently playing the zither, the sounds of her music accompanying the slight wind, blowing at the dress. It was a sight of true beauty.
Beside Qin Manyun, Shi Tuqin was holding a brush, touching the book as her beautiful eyes widened, putting her full concentration on copying, her heart was like still water.
She had already finished copying strokes, and had already started with complete words. At some point her body started to exude the aura of scrolls, calm and comfortable, and it made people feel at ease.
On the other end, Daji and Fire Phoenix were practicing yoga. Their perfect figures were shown to the fullest. They looked nimble and flexible, as if they had no bones. Their bodies seemed to be carved out of Jade.
By the side, Blackie wore leather pants, and was exercising his limbs, twisting his put around as he ran hard on the treadmill.
Li Nianfan sat on a pavilion with a cup of tea in front of him, staring into space.
Xiao Bai stood next to him, and awaited any orders like the best of waitresses.
The Food God was cooking.
With a hat on his head and an apron around his waist, he had a hand on the woke, and was working hard cooking. Not only did he not feel a single shred of exhaustion, he also had a happy smile on his face.
Being able to cook for the expert was a form of acknowledgement, and it was also an honor!
Furthermore, if it was not for the expert, would he ever be worthy of cooking with spiritual roots? Was it not way above his station?
“I’m bored.”
Li Nianfan suddenly woke up from his daze, and lamented.
Everything was great there, but it was too uninteresting. There were too few ways to entertain himself.
He did not fight others, nor was he interested in debate. He did not have many goals, and now that he had everything he wanted, there was nothing for him to do.
In his past life, just being on the internet would see a whole day fly by.
Thinking about himself now, he was already immortal. Immortality had been a great wish last time, but if he stayed that bored, what was the point of eternal life?
The internet was a good thing. If the cultivation realm had the internet, it would definitely be extremely interesting. Immortals uploading clips or live streaming would have enough content to last for thousands of years.
It was a pity.
Li Nianfan had just said three words, but everyone in the courtyard stopped everything they did, and took it to heart.
Xiao Bai asked with concern, “My dear master, are you frustrated by something?”
“A little. I just feel bored. TThere are far too few things to entertain myself with.” Li Nianfan cursed.
The Food God hurriedly said, “Lord Saint, would you like to indulge in some song and dance? I’ll get to the Heavenly Palace to prepare for a performance. Chang’e can perform at any time.”
Li Nianfan waved it off, saying wryly, “That’s different, it’s too monotonous. I’m tired of it.”
He suddenly had a flash of emotion, saying, “It would be nice to have newspapers. I could read the news as I drink tea every day, then I could use up some of my time.”
At that moment, he felt like watching a news broadcast would be very interesting.
The Food God paused, asking, “What is a newspaper?”
Li Nianfan explained, “It’s something that records what happens. It records every major event that happens in the world, showing it to the people. That way, even if I’m at home, I can know a lot about what’s happening.”
The Food God said in realization, “Isn’t that a memorial report?”
The emperor and Jade Emperor read memorial reports.
Li Nianfan nodded. “You can say that, it can indeed be understood in that way. However, I just read it for amusement, and to see what’s happening.”
The Food God smiled and said, “Lord Saint, this is easy enough to manage. I’ll let the Heavenly Palace know, and have them send you newspapers every day.”
Li Nianfan smiled. “Hahaha, that would be great, remember to record some interesting things inside.”
In the backyard.
The cows were producing milk, the Golden Bees were collecting honey, and the peacocks were laying eggs.
Nanan was holding a shovel, removing the weeds and replacing the soil for the plants. Dragon was instead holding a wooden pail, watering the plants.
The two of them were very earnest. Their faces were deep in concentration, it was another form of training for them.
Removing the weeds was not a challenge for Nanan, but at the same time, the soil was Chaos Spiritual Soil, renewing them would take a huge amount of energy. Similarly, watering the plants was no easy matter, and could increase Dragin’s control over water and understanding of water.
As for plowing the land, that was even harder, and needed the two of them to work together.
However, ever since they heard about the frustrations of the expert from Old Dragon regarding not having enough people, they threw themselves into their training, wanting to increase their skills as fast as possible to share the expert’s burden.
Dragin walked to the lake to pick up some more water, and he said to Lao Gui who was basking under the sun, “Lao Gui, is my ancestry really gone?”
Lao Gui opened his eyes, pausing for a moment before nodding.”
Dragon smiled. “Haha, it looks like he’s really started to move. Lord Dog really has a way with things, he was so persistent, even I couldn’t bear to watch.”
Nanan nodded thoughtfully. “It’s true, we should have him help brother more!”
At the same time.
In the Chaos.
A group of people were moving within, heading straight for one direction.
The one at the helm was Old Dragon, and behind him were those of Heavenly Palace.
Their expressions were spurious, and their eyes were searching, as if trying to feel something.
At that moment, Yang Jian spoke, “We’ve arrived, it’s here.”
Cultivator Junjun nodded, and with a flick of his wrist, a token appeared in his hand. It was the same token that the old man had given them in the secret border.
He asked them to look for the Soul Master.
When the token was pulled out, it started to glow. It became very active and started to fluctuate.
Everyone could not help but frown.
Since the token reacted, it meant that it must have sensed something. Yet, looking around, it was Chaos everywhere. There was not even a star in sight, let alone anything else.
Nuwa said, “There’s definitely something else here that can’t be found by normal means.”
“It’s obviously a hidden border.”
Cultivator Junjun nodded, saying, “Back then, when the Eldritch World was in a bad state, we erected a hidden border so we would not be easily found by other worlds. However, this border seems much stronger than ours.”
They knew it was right in front of them, but they could not sense it at all. They were not low rank cultivators either.
Their gazes fell on Old Dragon, he definitely had the highest cultivation among them.
Old Dragon was still in his white haired old man appearance, and his eyes were covered by long eyelashes. When he felt their collective gaze, he did not say anything else, and started to chant a smile.
After that, he let out a small smile, and the spell in his hand changed. Raising his hand, a pulse of water shot out of the Chaos, condensing within his hands. After that, he reached out to the Chaos in front of him.
They had not seen anything before, but like waves, sipples started to appear.
“The water channel formed, breaking the door of the world, condense!”
His hands then moved with the ripples, drawing out a small wooden door before drawing a handle on the door.
His hand gripped the handle, and he slowly pulled.
The door opened.
The Jade Emperor and the others gasped, “Amazing.”
He really was a deity that was regularly by the expert’s side, he had casually just installed a door on the hidden border.
Old Dragon said, “Since they created this hidden border, it means that they’re trying to avoid the outer world for some reason or another. So, we shouldn’t send too many people inside, I think that just two will be good.”
The Jade Emperor thought for a moment before saying, “You’re right, other than you, we’ll need to choose another person.”
Old Dragon’s eyes widened. “What do you mean, other than me?”
Nuwa smiled and said, “Old senior, don’t argue, you definitely have to go.”
Yang Jian nodded. “Senior, your cultivation is high and you’re too talented, Lord Dog has said before that you have to be in the front lines.”
Old Dragon shook his head and sighed, “what kind of world is this, no one knows how to respect their elders!”
Cultivator Junjun said, “We don’t know what the situation is like inside. It might be dangerous, so since Old Dragon and I have the highest levels of cultivation, we should go. The rest of you keep watch outside, be ready to react if anything happens.”
The others had no other opinions, so Old Dragon helplessly walked into the hidden border with Cultivator Junjun.
There, it was a grey sky. In the sky, there were no stars or moons.
The air was different from the outer world. They could visibly see streaks of red gasses flowing, and it seemed to be filled with the aura of killing and death. The entire place seemed to be littered with ill-omens.
Looking down from the sky, the ground was black, and there did not seem to be any living things. It felt like a country of the dead.
Old Dragon looked to a direction, his tone was serious as she said, “There’s a very strong aura coming from that direction, it will be very troublesome if it notices us.”
Cultivator Junjun nodded. “It really feels unsafe.”
“Ah, it’s so hard for me. I’m being thrown right into the frontlines the moment I start moving again, I have no rights.”
Old Dragon sighed with indignation before saying to Cultivator Junjun, “Remember this. Don’t even move more than three feet away, or you might get noticed.”
The moment he said that, he raised his hand and cast a spell. A gentle breeze blew over, landing on him and Cultivator Junjun’s bodies, completely concealing their auras.
“Follow me.”
The two of them concealed their auras and flew towards a certain direction.
The world was not that large, and they quickly arrived at a mountain. There were many large temples that looked incredibly ancient. They were all pitch black, and emitted sinister auras.
The temples were already broken down, and had turned into ruins, they were not clear what happened to the temples.
At that moment, Old Dragon and Cultivator Junjun’s expressions changed at the same time, and they flashed behind a pile of rubble.
The next moment, six figures walked out.
The six figures were in two rows. The first three had incredibly stiff faces that revealed no trace of emotion. The most eye-catching thing was their long fangs. Their skins were actually silver in color, and their bodies had fur on them. Their hands had very long, black nails.
They had the aura of corpses around them…
As for the three behind them, they were just as expressionless, but they had a light in their eyes that signified that they were living beings, controlling the three corpses in front of them.
No matter the humans or the corpses, they were all at the Golden Immortal stage.
Looking on as their figures disappeared, a curious glint was on Cultivator Junjun’s eyes, he said, “Is it a spell to control corpses?”
“The token had a reaction, so maybe the Soul Master’s corpse is here as well. It might even be controlled by someone?”
Old Dragon smacked his mouth. “If they really managed to control the corpse of a Wisdom Realm Deity, then it must be very powerful.”
They looked at the palace, and their silhouettes flashed as they infiltrated the place.
They bumped right into a row of corpses that were queuing up to head deeper into the palace. Old Dragon’s eyes glinted before he made his move, soundlessly grabbing the last group of corpses, turning them to ash immediately.
“Quick, put on a disguise and follow them!”
As the Old Dragon said that, he had already turned to look like that cultivator.
Cultivator Junjun frowned, objecting, “Are you asking me to pretend to be a zombie? I feel like it’s a little inappropriate.”
“Of course, do I need to say more? Don’t object, I’ll use my transformation spell on you. It won’t be easily discovered.”
Old Dragon raised his hand and pointed at Cultivator Junjun.
Immediately, Cultivator Junjun turned to look like a corpse.
The two of them hurriedly followed, and soundlessly stood at the end.
The team seemed to be marching underground. As they moved forward, the sinister feeling got more and more dense. There was no trace of light around them, and there was only a pitch black cave. It was unclear which direction they were heading.
“Roar!”
After walking for two hours, a roar could be heard from deep within the grave. It was different from the roar of a beast, it was incredibly horrifying and felt like the roar of an evil spirit. At the same time, it stirred up waves of horrifying sinister winds. The winds blew from deep within the cave, and caused them to feel an unending chill.
Old Dragon and Cultivator Junjun’s expressions froze, and they started to feel a sense of fear toward the owner of that roar, it was a sense of danger.
As they followed the team, after another hour, they finally reached the end of the cave.
Immediately, they saw a large figure within the cave.
The figure was a corpse, but it seemed to be alive as well. The chains that bound it were being dragged along by it, causing a clanking sound.
It’s entire body was a metallic black color, and its hair was like withered grass, messily dispersed on its head. There was fur all over its body, and it looked like a gigantic ape. A horrifying power surged out, filling the entire cave.
Other than that Corpse King, there were other people as well.
An old man looked at Cultivator Junjun’s team, urging them, “Quickly throw in the food!”
Throw…in the food?
The eyes of the corpse that Cultivator Junjun turned into trembled a little, an uneasy feeling crept into his heart.
After that, he saw the person in front start to send the corpse he controlled over, falling in front of the Corpse King.
The Corpse King opened its mouth, swallowing half the corpse in their instant. It munched on the corpse for less than two seconds before swallowing it.
Closely after that, the second person controlled the corpse and sent it over, after that it was the third, and the fourth…
He suddenly panicked, and could not help but look at Old Dragon, communicating with their eyes.
“The corpses were meant to be an offering. D*mn! I knew turning into a zombie was not the move!”
