Chapter 349: The Main God Space (Part 5)

Su Chen sensed an aura that shouldn't belong to the limits of this world.
This piqued his interest.
Normally, that was a power only the highest planes could access.
...
Meanwhile,
In a desolate wasteland.
"Pah! In this chaotic world where life is as worthless as grass, what's the point of pretending to be a good person?"
A wiry man with a scarred face spat at the corpses on the ground.
Looking at the many more corpses of his 'brothers' on the ground.
The scarred man waved his hand.
"Carry them all back, clean them up, and we'll have food for the winter."
Immediately, his henchmen stepped forward, carrying the corpses onto horses one by one. Their eyes were numb; all of this was commonplace for them.
Surviving in this world was already difficult enough; how could they afford to think?
In this world, they were nothing more than a band of outlaws.
"What a pity, those guys still got away..."
The scarred man felt a pang of regret. They had originally targeted four ordinary people, but unexpectedly, two martial arts masters appeared out of nowhere, trying to force them to let the four civilians go.
Under normal circumstances, the scarred man would naturally avoid trouble and making enemies of such martial arts masters.
But now, with winter approaching, without sufficient food, none of them would survive the winter. For both his 'brothers' and others, enough food was essential for survival.
"Boss... there's a child here..."
A thin man suddenly exclaimed. They had found a little girl sleeping soundly under a tree, as delicate as a porcelain doll, untouched by the filth and chaos of this world.
The child the two 'heroes' were protecting was this little girl.
"Kill her,"
the scarred man coldly ordered.
Seeing this, the others dared not disobey the scarred man's orders. Some stepped forward with knives, their numb eyes filled with pity, yet they still swung their knives without hesitation.
Just as blood was about to splatter,
the little girl opened her eyes.
What kind of eyes were they?
Completely devoid of emotion.
The instant she opened her eyes, the surrounding colors faded, leaving only black and white ink.
The large knife, about to strike, stopped in front of the little girl, unable to move an inch further. Everyone remained frozen in their positions, time seemingly standing still.
When everything returned to normal,
the scarred man saw the most horrifying scene.
The dozen or so brothers who had surrounded the little girl were now aged, withered corpses, lying on the ground. This horrifying sight sent chills down the scarred man's spine, and he screamed,
"Monster...a monster!"
This scene was completely beyond his comprehension, and the surviving bandits around him were so frightened that they turned to flee.
Turning back, just as everyone was about to flee, they suddenly saw a white-robed man appear with the speed of the wind, like a ghost.
"Born to grasp the laws of life and death, truly rare."
The white-robed man was none other than Su Chen, who had rushed over the moment he sensed the change.
Born to grasp the laws of life and death—such talent was extremely rare even in the Heavenly Gang Immortal Realm. A prodigy like him, one that might not appear for several eras, possessed a sliver of hope for immortality.
Such a genius had actually appeared in this sparsely populated lower realm.
The scarred-faced man was horrified to discover that their bodies were completely immobilized.
The next second, as if melting away ice and snow, they vanished neatly from their spot.
Su Chen looked at the little girl, who appeared to be about seven or eight years old.
The girl's cold eyes now held a hint of wariness as she looked at Su Chen.
This person is dangerous!
"Don't worry, I mean you no harm."
Su Chen looked at the wary little girl with a kind expression.
"Hmm, this isn't the reincarnation of an old monster."
Seemingly sensing the goodwill emanating from Su Chen, the wariness in the little girl's eyes slowly faded.
Her face was somewhat weary, and leaning against the withered tree, she actually fell asleep.
Seeing this, Su Chen murmured, "The origin of life and death is flawed; she's not the offspring of a supreme god... A variable has indeed appeared in this lower realm."
"Very well, consider it forging a good karmic connection."
With Su Chen's current comprehension and knowledge, even if he couldn't achieve immortality through the path of life and death, creating a life and death cultivation technique that directly leads to the Emperor's realm wouldn't be difficult.
Su Chen casually pointed.
In her sleep, the little girl felt as if many obscure and incomprehensible memories had appeared in her mind.
The uncontrollable power of life and death gradually merged with her small body, plunging her into a deep slumber.
Su Chen didn't give her a cultivation technique that would directly lead to the Emperor level. The highest cultivation method he created could only reach the Nirvana Realm. The path beyond that was for the little girl to walk herself.
Success meant limitless prospects; failure meant death and annihilation.
For Su Chen, this was merely an interesting encounter, a chance he casually bestowed. If it led to a positive outcome, all would be well; if not, there was no loss.
In a hazy state, Gongsun Ling only felt the figure of a mysterious young man in her mind growing increasingly blurry, leaving only one sentence echoing in her mind:
"If you can reach the end, when we meet again, I won't mind bestowing upon you another great fortune."
Su Chen casually set up a magic array to protect Gongsun Ling during her final transformation, then left directly.
His cultivation had already broken through to the Spirit Gathering Realm.
With the cultivation of the Spirit Gathering Realm, he could unleash numerous techniques, making him invincible in the mortal realm, fearless of anything!
...
"My lord...something terrible has happened!"
In a dimly lit, luxurious palace, amidst the antique fragrance and the music and dance of beautiful women, sat a shifty-eyed man with a greenish glint in his eyes, embracing a scantily clad woman.
Accompanied by a terrified voice, a soldier covered in blood rushed in, pushing open the door in a panic.
The sight startled the surrounding beauties, and the air seemed to freeze.
The smile on the man's face slowly vanished, and everyone in the hall fell silent, not daring to utter a sound.
The soldier, his expression terrified, hurriedly said, "My lord, someone has broken in! The soldiers can't hold them off, and even the trained masters are no match for that person!"
As he finished speaking, the soldier touched his neck, his face showing disbelief as he looked at his so-called 'lord'.
Blood splattered, and a jet-black dagger appeared in the hand of the shifty-eyed man. The dagger still bore traces of blood, but strangely, within a few breaths, the blood vanished as if it had never been there.
"Useless! A bunch of useless trash!"
The shifty-eyed man was none other than the Artifact Wielder of the Great Yin Dynasty, wielding one of the Twelve Divine Weapons, the Fang of the Erosion, and helping the Great Yin Dynasty guard a territory.
The shifty-eyed man narrowed his eyes.
Through the open doorway, a striking white figure slowly entered the hall, his silhouette stretching endlessly...
