"Psy szczekają, a karawana idzie dalej.
It is a proverb that translates to "The dogs bark, but the caravan moves on." which means that despite all obstacles, protests, and negative comments, life goes on at its own pace, regardless of our assessment of the situation...in short fuck all people's opinions!"
In a forest located at the border of Frozen Holy Land, Mortal Realm—a strange scene was unfolding before the eyes of a cultivator. A young man was lecturing a wolf cub as if he was talking to a genuine person.
The name of this particular cultivator was Xioao Gue. He was just passing by on his way to the city of Frozen Holy Land when he met this peculiar young man.
The man Xiao Gue is observing not only acts like a madman, but he also dresses as one!
He is wearing a weird hat that covers his ears, a thick upperwear and bottom wear made from leather, and boots.
It's Xiao Gue's first time ever seeing someone as weird as this guy. Xiao Gue suspects that this guy probably lost his mind while pursuing the path of immortality!
The young man possessed five spiritual roots as his talent. If he were to try and open his meridian, then it would take him roughly months at least to barely begin cultivating. But qi doesn't exist in this lower realm for some unknown reasons. Xiao Gue even has to use his qi reserves just to use his martial techniques.
And if hypothetically there's spiritual qi in this lower realm, with his low talent, no sects would accept him even as the lowest position within a sect—an outer disciple.
Clicking his tongue, Xiao Gue decided to leave the man alone without harming him.
"He's lucky I'm kind enough not to toy with him." Xiao Gue thought to himself. In the world of cultivation, only cultivators like him are treated with respect. People like the young man before him were nothing but ants compared to "heaven-defying" immortals like him!
Even if he were to massacre an entire village, as long as it didn't have the backing of a formidable figure, who would dare raise their head against him? Morality is nothing when facing a strong force.
Xiao Gue was about to accelerate the speed of his flying escape art when his entire senses suddenly warned him about an incoming danger. As a cultivator at the foundation establishment realm, Xiao Gue's senses and instincts were a hundredfold stronger than even the peak mortal of this realm.
For him to feel danger in a world without the presence of qi only meant one thing—a formidable figure has descended.
Xiao Gue looked around for the unknown danger, and a sword light appeared beside him.
"Huh...?"
However something unexpected happened, for a moment he was standing in the air. The next heartbeat, his head twisted at a speed not visible to the eye, and his head was facing the opposite direction—a gruesome sight.
No body-tempering technique could ever match the grandeur of an immortal! To find himself in this situation was nothing but an embarrassing fact. But of course, a corpse was not capable of showing emotion.
The young who was talking to the wolf cub earlier was now in front of Xiao Gue's corpse. After an entire hour passed, something emerged from the corpse of Xiao Gue. It was a deep green sphere object that floats silently at the place and emits a serene aura.
It was the soul of Xiao Gue.
Seeing the soul of the cultivator, the young man was quite amused. It was his first time meeting a cultivator of that level. But he was merely amused.
Shaking his head, he stored the soul in a ramage in the pocket of the man and found a cool-looking ring, which the young man guessed was a storage ring. Although it requires qi to activate, he still places it on the packet of his leather jacket.
Then after finding nothing valuable, he left the body of Xiao Gue and continued his journey. He wasn't afraid that other people would locate his corpse.
And if they do, he would be thankful for it.
...
Alexander Franziech was a transmigrator from the modern era. It's been around a year since he was transmigrated into the body of Xia...Chao... Ger or something like that. "What kinda stupid name is that."
As a transmigrator, he obtained a unique ability the moment he arrived in this world. It was an ability that didn't need qi to activate. It was something unique to him. With this ability, he was able to survive in this world by himself for an entire year.
During this entire year, by socializing with other people, he was able to gather information about the existence of a higher realm, immortals, as well as the cultivation level of this world. When Alexander learned the existence of Cultivation as well as the immortals, he felt his mind and heart boil.
After spending a decade as a worker slave just to survive in his past life, Alexander strive to live a different life this time. An unrestrained and free life. Free from every cage, from the worries of life, and from the shackles of mortality.
However, Alex learned later that the path to immortality is cut off. He tried inquiring about ways someone can become immortal yet he heard of none. All everyone knew was that immortals do indeed exist in the higher realm and that they would sometimes go down to lower realms to keep order and peace around.
But as a transmigrator, Alex knew better than to believe what everyone knew. After an entire year of investigation and dozens of corpses, he was able to find a clue that may help him become a cultivator.
That's the reason he killed Xiao Gue and he was heading towards the capital of Frozen Holy Land. His key to immortality is in there.
