Simplification System: From Perfect Arrow Skill to Immortal-Chapter 336 - 275-276: Insatiable Greed Leads to Ding Changhai’s Tragic Death
Soon, Bu Tianzhi led Ding Changhai into the strange abyss in Mu City. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
When Ding Changhai saw the Cold Ice Jade Bed, greed immediately flashed in his eyes.
"So it really is the Cold Ice Jade Bed! Training on this bed would make my cultivation ten times faster than in the outside world! If I absorb all the spiritual energy within, I might break through the shackles and become a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator!"
Ding Changhai was elated, not sparing a glance at the woman lying on the Cold Ice Jade Bed.
"Master, caution is best! If you get too close, your magical power and physical body will be sucked away by the corpse!"
Bu Tianzhi spoke up as a warning.
All the Yin Yang Hall disciples had turned to white bone—Bu Tianzhi knew well how terrifying this female corpse was.
"Tianzhi, you’re just making a fuss over nothing! It’s just a woman’s corpse, what’s there to be afraid of?"
Ding Changhai scoffed, then stepped forward. Magical power surged inside him as he prepared to blast the woman’s body off the bed and seize the Cold Ice Jade Bed for himself.
Yet as his magical power struck the female corpse, a ripple suddenly appeared on her body.
Ding Changhai’s attack was blocked by that thin ripple.
And in an instant, the magical power he unleashed was absorbed by the woman’s body.
Even worse, the magical power inside him began pouring out wildly, sucked straight into the corpse.
"What the—"
Ding Changhai panicked at the scene. He’d never encountered anything like this.
Could it be that Bu Tianzhi was right, and that this corpse harbored an unbelievably powerful Divine Soul?
"S-Senior, spare me! I was blind and didn’t mean to offend! Please, have mercy!"
Ding Changhai desperately begged for his life. If he lost any more magical power, his realm wouldn’t just stagnate—he’d be crippled.
Yet no matter how much he pleaded, the draining of his magical power didn’t slow down at all.
In just three heartbeats, Ding Changhai dropped from Middle Stage Nascent Soul Cultivation to Early Stage of Nascent Soul—his cultivation was still draining away like mad.
He tried to run, but his entire body was pinned down by an invisible pressure, unable to move an inch.
"Divine Sense oppression?"
Sweat beaded on Ding Changhai’s forehead, dripping down in fat drops.
The Divine Sense pressure released by this corpse was even more terrifying than what Lin Chang’sheng had unleashed—it surpassed the Early Stage of Divinity Transformation Realm.
It showed just how monstrous the Divine Soul hidden in this woman really was.
"Master—"
Bu Tianzhi saw this and knew for certain: His master was finished.
Serves him right for ignoring all warnings and acting on his own.
"Tianzhi, hurry—find Sect Leader Jiang to save me!"
At that moment, the only person Ding Changhai could think of was Jiang Yuyan.
After all, Jiang Yuyan was a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator—maybe she could save him.
"Alright! I’ll go right away!"
Bu Tianzhi nodded and immediately left.
Yet just after leaving the strange abyss, Bu Tianzhi stopped in his tracks.
He realized that even if he fetched Jiang Yuyan, it’d be like distant water can’t put out a nearby fire.
By the time they arrived, Ding Changhai would be dead for sure.
Then perhaps Ding Changhai’s Storage Bag and Spirit Treasure would end up in Jiang Yuyan’s hands.
Rather than that, wouldn’t it be better to claim them himself once Ding Changhai died—strengthening his own cultivation?
At that thought, Bu Tianzhi’s eyes went cold. He gave up on seeking help.
"Aargh—"
Not long after, shrill, agonized screams from Ding Changhai echoed out from the depths of the abyss.
No doubt his magical power had been drained dry, his flesh beginning to disintegrate—hence such wretched howls.
Bu Tianzhi stood outside, listening to his master’s miserable cries, but was unmoved, quietly closing his eyes.
After a long time, the screams finally faded, leaving not a sound.
Only then did Bu Tianzhi hurry below.
At the bottom of the abyss, there was no sign of Ding Changhai—just a pile of white bones, a Yin Yang Wheel, and a Storage Bag.
Bu Tianzhi approached the Cold Ice Stone Platform, bowing every few steps. After collecting the Yin Yang Wheel and Ding Changhai’s Storage Bag, he left in a rush.
Even Ding Changhai had been drained dry here; Bu Tianzhi wouldn’t dare linger a second more.
Shortly after Bu Tianzhi left, the corpse’s hand twitched ever so slightly—there were hints she was waking up.
...
Immortal Ascension Sect.
Lin Chang’sheng sat cross-legged in the Hidden Immortal Pool, immersed in an epiphany over the Celestial Immortal Godslaying Technique. This enlightenment lasted more than half a day.
Fortunately, having done this before, he handled it with ease this time.
"Celestial Immortal Godslaying Technique, Entry Level!"
The panel finally gave a notification, making Lin Chang’sheng break into a satisfied smile.
"Finally, entry level! After simplifying this, I’ll soon master it to perfection!"
Lin Chang’sheng thought to himself.
"How... how is this possible?"
Right as Lin Chang’sheng grasped the Celestial Immortal Godslaying Technique, countless golden runes vanished, startling the elder hidden in the pavilion.
Someone from the Lower Realm actually comprehended an Immortal Technique from the Immortal Realm?
If word got out, it would stun everyone in the Immortal Realm.
[Celestial Immortal Godslaying Technique detected. Simplify it for 1,000 Immortal Crystals?]
The panel prompted him right after.
This left Lin Chang’sheng wondering; it actually required 1,000 Immortal Crystals?
But Immortal Crystals weren’t to be found in the Immortal Relic Land, so he could only let it go for now.
Anyway, he still had the Dragon Elephant Heaven-Suppressing Technique—it would do for now.
This cultivation technique was also an Immortal Technique—it absorbed spiritual energy at a wild, domineering rate.
"Still, getting entry level in this isn’t bad. Once I get to Burial Immortal Realm and obtain some Immortal Crystals, then I can simplify it!"
Lin Chang’sheng mused to himself.
Then he withdrew his Divine Sense from the Jade Token Space.
"Time to train these three Immortal Techniques!"
Lin Chang’sheng planned to cultivate the Thousand-fold Sword Wave Technique, Myriad Feet Piercing Heart Arrow Technique, and the Celestial Star Venerable Body Technique—boosting his power even more.
[Thousand-fold Sword Wave Technique, Entry Level!]
[Myriad Feet Piercing Heart Arrow Technique, Entry Level!]
[Celestial Star Venerable Body Technique, Entry Level!]
One hour later, Lin Chang’sheng had trained all three Immortal Techniques to Entry Level.
[Detected that Thousand-fold Sword Wave Technique is at Entry Level. Simplify it for 6,000 Spirit Stones?]
[Detected that Myriad Feet Piercing Heart Arrow Technique is at Entry Level. Simplify it for 5,500 Spirit Stones?]
[Detected that Celestial Star Venerable Body Technique is at Entry Level. Simplify it for 6,000 Spirit Stones?]
The system prompted him again in quick succession.
"Yes!"
Lin Chang’sheng instantly chose "Yes" for all of them.
[Great Dao is Simple: Thousand-fold Sword Wave Technique simplification begins... Simplifying... Simplification complete. Thousand-fold Sword Wave Technique == Playing with water!]
[Great Dao is Simple: Myriad Feet Piercing Heart Arrow Technique simplification begins... Simplifying... Simplification complete. Myriad Feet Piercing Heart Arrow Technique == Touching arrows!]
[Great Dao is Simple: Celestial Star Venerable Body Technique simplification begins... Simplifying... Simplification complete. Celestial Star Venerable Body Technique == Looking at stars!]
"Playing with water? Touching arrows? Looking at stars?"
Lin Chang’sheng repeated the names—none of them seemed particularly hard.
He promptly asked Liao Bugui to bring a bucket of water, and after preparing brushes and ink, drew a bunch of stars.
Then, one hand played with water, one hand touched arrows, and his eyes stared at the painted stars.
Thousand-fold Sword Wave Technique Experience Points +1!
Myriad Feet Piercing Heart Arrow Technique Experience Points +1!
Celestial Star Venerable Body Technique Experience Points +1!
...
The experience points for all three Immortal Techniques shot upward like mad.
