I Am A Corpse Collector In The World Of Cultivating Immortals

Chapter 92: The Talent of the Celestial Master (Seeking Subscriptions)

"How could this be?" Xu Wenjing's face was complex.

She had given up on someone she thought was ordinary, but now, the other party was so dazzling.

For a moment, she lost focus, and the engraved formation became somewhat unstable.

"Wenjing!" Song Yucheng lightly shouted.

Upon hearing the call, Xu Wenjing instantly snapped back to attention and focused on setting up the formation.

But she understood that no matter what, her shallow relationship with Chen Shen had already come to an end.

...

At this moment, the crowd below was still discussing, and all their attention was on Chen Shen.

"With his proficiency in formations, I'm afraid he will be the first in the Baiyan Luck Competition."

"That's not necessarily true. There are several grandmasters on the field, and the difference between them is not too great. The key lies in the subsequent competition for Luck. If Chen Shen only seeks speed and neglects the quality of the formation itself, even if he reveals a slight flaw, he may be surpassed by other opponents."

As soon as the words were spoken, Chen Shen on the field completed the formation at an extremely fast speed.

"Look, he's so fast. He completed the engraving so quickly!"

Someone exclaimed in surprise.

However, many people shook their heads.

"Chen Shen is participating for the first time. He's probably too focused on the beginning and neglecting the end. Did you notice? The speed at which his Baiyan formation absorbs Luck is just average."

"Yes, he successfully set up the formation and ranked first in the first stage, but his mentality is ultimately too poor. He fell behind in the second stage."

Several grandmasters and quasi-grandmasters on the field also noticed this scene, and their initially discouraged mentality improved.

"This is my chance!" Female grandmaster Murong Yue saw this and felt delighted. She increased her speed, but she wasn't in a hurry to finish, ensuring that there were no mistakes in the formation.

"There's a chance. This person is participating for the first time in the competition and must want to make a name for himself. Unfortunately, he's too eager. Today, I will defeat the newly promoted grandmaster as a quasi-grandmaster and make a name for myself!"

Zhang Ping's mouth slightly curved upwards. This was his opportunity.

"After all, he's still young."

Above, a noble Luck master spoke. He was Zhang Ping's master, and his gaze turned towards Zhao Decai.

But upon hearing this, Old Zhao just chuckled.

At this moment, a somewhat doubtful voice sounded.

"Huh? Look, why is Chen Shen still making hand seals? Hasn't his formation already been fully engraved?"

Everyone was also surprised. They hadn't been paying attention to Chen Shen from start to finish, so no one knew how many runes he had engraved or whether he had truly completed the engraving.

However, it seemed that the other party couldn't change the result of his first defeat.

"Look, Murong Yue and another grandmaster have already finished engraving their formations. The formations are perfect, and the speed at which they absorb Luck surpasses Chen Shen's."

Murong Yue and the other grandmaster breathed a sigh of relief. Now they just needed to wait for the final result.

The two of them regarded each other as the final opponent.

As for Chen Shen, it would have to be next time.

"Huh, Zhang Ping is impressive. He's actually the first among the quasi-grandmasters to complete the formation. He truly lives up to being taught by Master Zihe. And look at the speed at which his formation absorbs Luck. It surpasses Chen Shen's."

"It seems that the top three this time will be Murong Yue, the two senior grandmasters, and Zhang Ping, the quasi-grandmaster. Although Chen Shen's talent is astonishing, his experience in the Luck competition is lacking, and he didn't consider the overall situation."

"No, look!"

Just as everyone thought the outcome was set, a change occurred on the field.

They saw Chen Shen, who had been making hand seals all along, suddenly stop.

In an instant, on top of the formation, the white geese that absorbed Luck suddenly sucked in purple energy at a speed far surpassing the other grandmasters.

On the solid back of the white geese, there seemed to be an image of a spreading green peacock.

An inexplicable power was loaded onto the white geese, causing the speed at which they absorbed Qi Absorption to increase several times over.

"What is that?"

"Am I seeing things? There's clearly a green bird on top of the white geese."

"How is this possible!"

The green bird masters below were in an uproar, exclaiming one after another.

What kind of operation was this?

A white geese Luck formation mixed with a green bird?

Luck Master, just now, the Green Sparrow was too dim, almost non-existent, but...

Someone said in a deep voice, realizing some mystery, but he himself was speechless and unable to explain what was going on.

This astonishing change amazed everyone present.

"This person is too terrifying." The two masters who originally wanted to compete for first place instantly lost their confidence. Now, the real outcome has been determined.

The other party had absorbed Luck much earlier than them, and now they have performed such a jaw-dropping operation, increasing the absorption speed several times faster than them. They are stronger by a notch, making it impossible to compare. The competition has lost its suspense.

"Chen Shen!" Zhang Ping murmured, slightly bitter.

"The Green Sparrow chapter was created based on the White Goose formation. It is a continuation and improvement. It incorporates several Green Sparrow-level runes into the formation without destroying its integrity, not aiming to engrave the Green Sparrow, but to enhance the attraction of the formation."

At this moment, Master Zhang Ping spoke up to clarify for everyone.

As a Purple Crane-level Luck Master, he naturally could see through it.

"However, Chen Shen is truly deserving of the title of genius. This idea is also quite amazing. It can be said that it adds some interesting content to this competition. Moreover, you can all learn from this operation and apply it in the next competition."

Master Zhang Ping continued.

"Such a talented Luck Master has emerged. I'm afraid that for the next period of time, he will be the one to look up to, surpassing the White Goose level."

Many people admired.

"Not only will he dominate the White Goose level, but I estimate that in a few years, he will be promoted to the Green Sparrow level Luck Master and compete with us."

"That's true. Chen Shen's ability to engrave Green Sparrow runes on the White Goose formation shows that he has already begun to challenge the Green Sparrow level."

"In less than five years, he will challenge the Green Sparrow level. This person is extraordinary."

If the praise from the seniors to Zhang Ping before was to save his face, then the admiration for Chen Shen came from the bottom of their hearts. This is a recognition of a true genius.

...

Time passed, and soon, the White Goose level competition ended.

Almost everyone engraved the formations and absorbed Luck.

Except for Xiao Li.

In the past, he could make the coffins with engraved formations absorb purple energy during the competition.

However, with the arrival of Chen Shen, he almost single-handedly absorbed half of the Luck.

Xiao Li's face didn't look good. He was at the bottom, again.

Just as he finished engraving the formation, he found that there was not even a trace of Luck left in the sky.

He engraved a lonely formation...

"It's so embarrassing." Xiao Li blushed.

"Chen Shen, I am..."

Geniuses are always the focus of attention, no matter what kind of genius they are, they are worth befriending.

Chen Shen was surrounded by a group of people. For the first time in his life, he felt a little uncomfortable and blushed slightly.

His expression was like this:

"Come over here." Old Zhao, who was somewhat proud, called out.

Chen Shen nodded slightly to the crowd, then jogged over.

"I don't want to show off in front of others, but since I've started, I can't hide my abilities anymore. However, being a Luck Master is ultimately a small achievement in the Immortal Dynasty, not enough to be prominent. But Chen Shen, you are my student, and I can teach you!"

Chen Shen sat next to Old Zhao, thinking to himself.

After the White Goose competition, several Purple Crane masters who were hosting the event exchanged ideas and ranked the participating players. However, the results were announced at the end, and now they are going to hold the Green Sparrow level competition.

"If you have any questions about Luck, you can come to me."

Upon hearing this, Chen Shen looked over. The person speaking was Zhang Ping's master, a master who had immersed himself in the Purple Crane level Luck for many years.

"This is my student, I can teach him!"

Before Chen Shen could answer, Old Zhao spoke first.

This disciple is very talented, and now Chen Shen is a genius worth cultivating. How could they let others take advantage of him?

"Hehe." The other party didn't say much, just chuckled lightly.

Boom!

Suddenly, a crane cry sounded from below, and on the field, a purple crane shadow appeared.

"Amazing, to be able to learn and use it on the spot, and Chen Shen didn't explain the details, just gave a direction, and they were able to comprehend it on their own. Truly worthy of being a master-level Luck expert of the Green Sparrow Sect!"

Someone exclaimed in admiration.

Among the Green Sparrow-level Luck experts, those who dare and are able to achieve this level are all master-level figures.

"Another purple crane phantom has appeared, two masters are attempting it."

It's not just one person attempting it, there are two masters learning from Chen Shen, breaking into the purple crane runes within the Green Sparrow formation.

Bang!

But before everyone could be amazed for long, two crisp sounds rang out.

The two masters who learned from Chen Shen took a few steps back, and the coffins in front of them shattered.

"This is a failure, they didn't successfully replicate it."

Someone exclaimed in surprise.

"What a pity, this is a competition, involving the allocation of spots, and these two masters dared to attempt it directly. Now that they have failed, the spots for the Great Mausoleum are lost, a heavy loss."

"Yes, with the attainments of these two master-level experts, the spots were practically guaranteed, but they did this. They could have attempted it after the competition."

While everyone was lamenting, suddenly, the two slightly injured masters looked at each other and both had a look of joy in their eyes.

"Amazing, truly amazing!" One of the masters exclaimed in delight:

"Chen Shen is truly a genius, this is a genius-like idea!

Connecting the past and the future, this is just a preliminary attempt, but it has given me a deeper understanding of the Purple Crane Formation. By engraving the purple crane within the Green Sparrow, I can have a more thorough understanding and view the Purple Crane from different angles!"

"That's right!" Another master also agreed deeply:

"The Purple Crane chapter was created based on the Green Sparrow, but we were only focused on following the steps and studying the Purple Crane chapter diligently.

We forgot to look back, the Green Sparrow and the Purple Crane chapter are connected, and the essence remains the same. We can start from the Green Sparrow and comprehend the Purple Crane from a different perspective.

This sudden realization, I feel that the Purple Crane is not far away!"

As the two masters spoke, they solemnly bowed to Chen Shen amidst the astonished gazes of many Luck experts.

"Indeed, I have also gained enlightenment!" Another master-level expert rejoiced.

He, like the other two masters, attempted to integrate into the purple crane runes, and also gained some understanding.

"I didn't expect Chen Shen to be so amazing!"

Watching this scene, many people were shocked and admired.

"This time, the Purple Garden has produced a Luck prodigy. As long as he doesn't die, he will definitely have the qualifications of a Golden Scale!"

"He is definitely a future Grand Master! Even a Saint Master is possible!"

"Not just a Saint Master, perhaps even a Celestial Master."

"A Celestial Master? Luck experts can reach that level?"

"No."

"Then?"

"It's just bragging, anyone can do that. Don't you think about it, that is such a high level, such a difficult achievement. Don't just praise someone like that when you see a genius rise. It's not praise, it's flattery."

"..." Chen Shen.

Clearly, they were all bowing down to him, and he was even enjoying this atmosphere a bit.

Why does the situation feel more and more off?

...

In the blink of an eye, over an hour had passed, and the Green Sparrow-level Grand Master competition had also ended.

In the White Goose competition, Chen Shen lived up to expectations and won first place, obtaining a White Goose Grand Mausoleum spot.

"Congratulations, congratulations!" Many people congratulated Chen Shen.

There was no suspense in the White Goose-level rankings, with the top three spots all taken by the three masters, and Zhang Ping took fourth place.

On the other hand, in the Green Sparrow-level competition, the three masters didn't have any rankings because of Chen Shen, and ended up at the bottom.

"Xiao Li, you need to work harder. This time, not only did you end up at the bottom, you didn't even absorb a trace of Luck."

Among the White Goose Luck experts, a young man named Xiao Li was once again being criticized, and he felt a bit overwhelmed.

"Be humble and calm, focus your mind on breaking through the Green Sparrow formation."

At the end of the event, Old Zhao gave his caring instructions.

Chen Shen nodded.

In the Luck competition, he chose not to hide his abilities, not just to quickly advance as a high-level Luck master under the name of a genius.

Everything was still for the sake of collecting corpses.

Cultivation was the way of the king.

The only regret was that Old Zhao's wool could no longer be sheared.

The opponent had just become a Purple Crane level master, and was probably not outstanding among the Purple Crane masters, unable to obtain such a position.

"I wonder if I can shear Old Zhao again before I become a Purple Crane level Luck master?"

Chen Shen looked at Old Zhao, who was proudly walking with Master Zhang Ping, and thought to himself.

"Going to the auction house tomorrow?" At this time, Zhang Ping walked over.

Although he was only fourth, he also got a spot, so he asked.

"I have some breakthroughs and ideas that need to be tested when I go back."

Chen Shen shook his head and politely declined.

The former looked at his back and cursed silently, "What a freak!"

In fact, it wasn't. Chen Shen had just become famous today and needed some time to brew.

At least, he had to wait for those wealthy families who needed to buy burial plots to know his reputation.

Only then would there be profit!

...

Five days later, Chen Shen finally walked out of the courtyard and went to the auction house.

In these few days, his doorstep had been trampled by countless Luck masters who came to visit.

Most of them were White Geese and Green Sparrows, and he could still greet them, but only in terms of exchanging ideas.

However, some Purple Crane masters wanted to take him as their disciple, and he couldn't resist some of them.

Fortunately, Chen Shen had informed Old Zhao about this matter early on.

From then on, no more Purple Crane masters came to visit.

"It's been five days, it's time to become famous." Chen Shen walked in the bamboo forest of the Purple Garden.

After a while, he arrived at the auction house and waved his hand, giving all four spots to the other party.

"Remember, my name is Chen Shen!" Chen Shen stood tall and shouted.

"I have seen your portrait, I didn't expect you to be even more handsome than in the painting."

The person he was talking to was a female cultivator, who smiled sweetly.

"Hmm." Chen Shen nodded, indeed, his reputation had spread.

This time, he was not in the main hall of the auction house, but was invited to a private room by the higher-ups.

After all, they were all from the Purple Garden, and they must have heard his reputation and had a good attitude towards him, a genius Luck master with the potential of a Golden Dragon.

Chen Shen sat alone in the private room, watching the powerful people below discussing and competing for burial plots.

Hmm, this time it's quite interesting.

"This time there are four White Goose tombs, I think you should have heard of them. Our Purple Garden has produced a genius who has reached the White Goose Grandmaster level in less than five years, and is only a little short of reaching the Green Sparrow level.

When this genius discusses with others, he combines the White Goose and Green Sparrow formations in a genius-like manner, half White Goose and half Green Sparrow, the absorption effect of Luck is absolutely..."

"I think these powerhouses are not fools. If we exaggerate like this, I'm afraid we will be laughed at and it will affect the bidding!"

Chen Shen was a little speechless.

"I know this. I am acquainted with a Purple Crane master from the Purple Garden. He said that the genius's formation is extremely perfect and the effect far surpasses other White Goose masters. When the Purple Crane master told me, he couldn't stop praising him. I came here specifically for him..."

A Soul Formation ancestor said from below, his face full of admiration.

"..." Chen Shen.

Then, the bidding for the four White Goose tombs became intense, soaring from the starting price of one hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones to one hundred and fifty thousand, and kept rising.

"This shouldn't be a setup by our Purple Garden, right?" Chen Shen felt embarrassed in his heart.

Afraid that everyone was getting impatient, he posted first and then made changes.

Thank you for your votes.
