What If I Can't Die? - Chapter 80
80 Fighting to Do Good
“I’m rich! I’m rich!”
Song Shi was overjoyed.
These cultivators were at least Postnatal middle-stage martial artists. They consisted of poor scholars, rich martial artists, and noble immortals. To be able to cultivate to this level, it was impossible to not have some sort of wealth and assets.
Their assets were easily worth more than ten thousand taels of Silver each. Moreover, the higher their cultivation level, the richer they were.
!!
For example, a few Connate and Qi Refinement cultivators had Dharma artifacts and talismans that mortal money could not buy. Song Shi hence casually took them away.
The corpse search went very smoothly, so much so that Song Shi hoped that this kind of thing could happen to him a few more times.
Walking to the other side, Song Shi looked over and realized that Daoist Cai had also fallen to the ground.
“The famous Qi cultivator of Silken City died just like that. I’m really lucky!”
Song Shi walked over and reached out to pull the storage bag sticking from his chest, but he could not pull it out.
Surprised, he looked at the hand that was holding the storage bag tightly. He pulled it harder, but the hand was still holding it very tightly.
“…”
Song Shi was speechless. This guy was still thinking about his storage bag even after he died?
He increased his strength again. With his powerful Physique, Daoist Cai’s entire body was lifted up and dragged on the ground.
“F*ck, was that necessary?”
Song Shi’s face twitched. He reached out to pry Daoist Cai’s hand away, but the moment he touched it, he realized that something was wrong.
Not only was this guy’s hand hot, but there was also Spiritual Energy flowing through him.
It seemed like he was still alive. No wonder he was protecting his storage bag!
The latter suddenly opened his eyes. The horsetail whisk that had fallen to the side suddenly lit up and flew towards him.
Song Shi had no choice but to let go and take a step back. The soft horsetail whisk then left a mark on the ground that was half a foot deep.
“Which brat dared to steal my storage bag? Where’s your etiquette and honor?!”
Daoist Cai jumped up and stared at the empty area where Song Shi was. He cursed angrily, “Believe it or not, I’ll immediately use a Heavenly Lightning Talisman to shatter your soul!”
At this moment, he was very angry. He was originally pretending to be dead and waiting for the situation to be clear before escaping. But in the end, some ghost thing actually tried to snatch his things.
After being discovered by this fellow, Song Shi saw that there was no danger. He curled his lips and said, “You’re the brat. I’m just here to collect the burial fee. Since you’re not dead, there’s no need to pay!”
“It’s you!”
Daoist Cai immediately recognized the voice. He stared at the source of the voice and used his Divine Consciousness to investigate the source of the voice. However, after searching for a while, he still couldn’t find nor see anybody. He asked fearfully, “Are you that kid from the Song family?”
“If it wasn’t me, who else could it be?”
Song Shi clicked his tongue, “You’re really a f*cking genius. You actually pretended to be dead here. Your technique is quite impressive. If I didn’t come into contact with you, I wouldn’t have noticed.”
“Hmph, if I don’t pretend to be dead, would you rather I waste my energy and power to kill my own teammates?”
Daoist Cai grabbed the horsetail whisk and restrained his strength. He sneered, “I don’t have your invisibility technique to protect me!”
“The enemies have all left. You can help them capture Chang Sunji and the others. This is a good opportunity to make a contribution,” Song Shi suggested.
Daoist Cai squinted, “Why aren’t you attacking? Why are you hiding here?”
“Ahem, I saw that my brothers had died too tragically and wanted to bury them.”
Song Shi was thick-skinned, “Besides, I’m only a small Connate cultivator. How can I be qualified to participate in the battle between extraordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivators?”
Daoist Cai felt that he had met a kindred spirit. He said disdainfully, “Don’t you just want to take the opportunity to get rich? Do you think I can’t tell?”
“What do you know? I’m collecting money so that I can bury their corpses in peace. I don’t want to be involved in karma.”
Song Shi said righteously.
Daoist Cai rolled his eyes. “Fellow Daoist Song, you’ve really enlightened me. I should learn from you and do good deeds without leaving behind bad karma.”
He turned around and rushed towards a corpse and quickly took down a package.
“Damn you!”
Song Shi cursed and hurriedly went to touch another corpse.
“Immeasurable Heavenly Venerate, Fellow Daoist Song, you’ve done many good deeds. It’ll be quite difficult to dig a hole. Let me share some of your burden.”
Daoist Cai’s eyes lit up. Now that there was no terrifying Golden Core cultivator, he should do something kind to comfort his frightened heart.
Swoosh!
His movement technique was not bad. After walking around a few corpses, he managed to take out a pile of items.
He caught a glimpse of a Connate cultivator’s flying sword Dharma artifact. Just as he was about to pick it up, the flying sword disappeared into thin air and was picked up by Song Shi.
He shouted, “Fellow Daoist Song, these people had a lot of resentment when they died. You can’t withstand it. It’s better for me to go to hell.”
As he spoke, he hurriedly snatched away a Dharma artifact that looked like a bead from the wall, making Song Shi feel like he had lost a hundred million dollars.
“Shameless old man!”
Song Shi cursed silently. Originally, he could have plundered the wealth of at least forty to fifty people here. Now that Daoist Cai had appeared, he had lost the wealth of at least ten people.
Daoist Cai smiled as he touched the corpse. He did not forget to persuade Song Shi, “Fellow Daoist Song is still young. It’s not appropriate for you to be too rich. Otherwise, you will easily lose control of your mentality and become bad.”
“Song Shi has been rich since he was young and has long been ruined. I think a monk like you shouldn’t be greedy for such vulgar things.”
Song Shi even began to use his Phantom image Steps. Otherwise, he felt that he would not be able to defeat this fellow.
“That’s not true. Money is in the heart, and the heart of the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord is in the heart. These mundane things are like floating clouds to me.”
Daoist Cai shook his head.
“Hmph.”
Song Shi could not be bothered to say anything else. He ran into the house to pick up more things.
Daoist Cai felt that it would be easy to be robbed if he plundered together with Song Shi, so he ran to the other side to loot instead.
Of the two of them, one was in the open, and the other was in the dark. They were fighting to loot the corpses and “do good deeds”.
They quickly looted all the corpses in the courtyard.
“Fortunately, I managed to loot some before him. Otherwise, I would have suffered a huge loss.”
Song Shi rummaged through the things he had found in the few houses lying around the courtyard and realized that there were things belonging to ten people or more that had disappeared where the boat had left.
He guessed that it was taken away by the fishing old fellow. However, why would a Golden Core Realm cultivator be interested in these people’s relics?
If Song Shi had discovered Chen Ming when he was spying while playing dead, he probably would have understood the reason.
Puzzled, he walked around and came to the door again.
The remaining living few were all here. Wuchen Zi and the others had killed a few more. in their dream-like state and were still going on their rampage. He glanced at Daoist Cai, who didn’t dare to come over and walked over generously. He quietly took the things from the corpses that were lying beside Chen Yiling and the others.
“This Invisibility Talisman is really necessary in order to pilfer and philander without being discovered!”
Song Shi thought with mixed feelings. He then saw with his own eyes that a cultivator at the seventh level of Qi Refinement who because of his insufficient Spiritual Energy, had his head pierced by the Dharma artifact of the Extraordinary Invisible Shadow Guard. He screamed and flew to the ground, unwilling to die but still on the verge of death.
“It’s still too hard to win. This is when they’re all sleepwalking too and probably are not using their full strength.”
Song Shi sighed inwardly. He glanced at Daoist Cai, who had secretly gone over to pick up the Dharma artifacts and the storage bag of a seventh-stage Qi Refinement cultivator and narrowed his eyes.
If this fellow joined them again, Chen Yiling and the others would probably be dead by now.
How odd. Wuchen Zi’s team should have all been affected by the strange fog, but yet this guy was not under its control at all.
Moreover without him, this guy would have benefited most from this tragedy. He would have been able to make a fortune just by looting corpses.
He picked up a stone and threw it at Daoist Cai.
Chen Yiling and Elder Dou, who were struggling to resist, immediately noticed and stared at Daoist Cai. They originally thought that this person was going to attack them, but they realized that something was wrong.
This guy was picking up the Dharma artifacts on the ground and he seemed to be awake.
Daoist Cai’s face darkened, “F**k, I was tricked by that kid!”
