The Path to Sainthood from Fairy Tail

Li Xuan took a quick look at the dormitory. Although it was just a temporary dormitory, it was small but had everything needed.

In addition to a bedroom with two beds, there is also a living room, a kitchen and a bathroom, which is about the same size as Lan Yi's home.

The three of them sat down in the living room, and the captain began to tell what had happened since they left:

"After we parted ways, my loan was repaid by the team leader, and our team should have had a brighter future. However, my poor decision-making led to our team facing a devastating disaster..."

The captain paused at this point, then continued, "Without the pressure of the loan, we felt more relaxed than ever before. So, when choosing tasks, we weren't so strict.

We shifted our focus from high-priced and dangerous tasks to less dangerous ones. Although we may not make a lot of money, it can provide spiritual nourishment in our lives.

Having said that, Li Xuan understood that what followed was the key to why they became what they are now.

"However, that simple mission was too boring, so our team's attention shifted to an interesting mission - exploring the mystery, codenamed "Xian"."

“Immortal?”

When this name was mentioned, Li Xuan's mind came up with the novel he found in the library, "The Only Immortal in the Universe".

This novel has no other special features except for its novel subject matter. The content is the same old slapping and pretentious story, with at most more description of the characteristics of the "immortals".

Immortal, everlasting, spotless, far exceeding the personal combat power of the tenth level, an all-round and comprehensive collection of abilities.

It is simply the most perfect creature in the universe.

However, the author of this book always briefly describes the battle process, and even the tenth-level extraordinary person is killed instantly. After the battle, the protagonist begins his stud life.

Putting aside the pornographic content, immortals do make people yearn for them.

After all, although people in the main universe live long lives and the power of extraordinary people is strong, their lifespan is limited and their bodies will slowly age over time, even if the aging time has been greatly extended.

The captain confirmed, "Yes, it's immortal. You may be unfamiliar with this term, but in the eyes of employers, it represents eternal life."

"I was so confused at the time that I actually became interested in such a horrific thing."

"Did you see a real immortal?" Li Xuan looked at the two in surprise.

The captain shook his head in denial: "No, we didn't see any real immortals. We didn't even enter the immortal territory. We lost half our men at the entrance."

"So, your mission failed?"

The captain smiled bitterly, "On the contrary, our mission was successful. The employer wanted to determine the location of the immortal tomb, and our mission was simply to explore the way."

Li Xuan just nodded silently. He knew very well that if the captain and Hawkeye encountered such a thing, no matter what he said, his teammates would have left this world.

Hawkeye continued, "The employer has also paid the mission remuneration and pension in full according to the contract. To be honest, we have no right to cause trouble for them."

"So, you guys, are you here..."

The captain sighed, "I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but after that mission, I lost the courage to fight. But I need some money to retire in my hometown, so I came here to do logistics work. The other team members have already left..."

"So, the reason you're so depressed right now is because you want to retire but have to work, so you're experiencing these physical symptoms?"

The captain cleared his cough to hide his embarrassment.

"The workers' resentment is only part of the story. You have to understand that this is human nature. The most important reason why we are so depressed is because our teammates sacrificed and the team disbanded!"

The corner of Li Xuan's mouth twitched.

"Well, it's getting late. I'm glad to meet you today, but all good things must come to an end. It's time for me to leave."

Li Xuan stood up and started to leave, but Hawkeye stopped him and said, "Wait a minute!"

He took out a piece of parchment filled with a mysterious atmosphere and said solemnly: "This is one of the rewards for completing our mission, the star map of the Immortal Tomb."

"Star map? I remember star maps were supposed to be 3D. This parchment..."

Li Xuan's hesitant voice and questioning eyes all showed that he didn't believe that this parchment was the star map.

Hawkeye said directly, "This is indeed a star map. With my knowledge, it's basically impossible for you to understand the principle behind it, so I won't explain it in detail. Anyway, the employer of that mission gave us this star map as a reward, and they must want us, the living, to enter the Immortal Tomb again."

But the captain and I have decided to retire. If we take this thing and become depressed in the future, we will definitely want to go and take a look, and then completely lose our lives. Rather than letting this thing rot in our hands, it is better to give it to you. At least, it will give you an extra option when your strength reaches its limit. This is our gift to you.

Although Li Xuan was full of doubts, he still took the parchment scroll and prepared to open it to see why this thing was called a star map.

Hawkeye stopped him: "No, you are not strong enough now, it is not appropriate for you to know the location of the immortal tomb."

The captain also agreed, "That's right. The matter of the Immortal Tomb is of great importance. With your current strength, even entering that planet would be difficult."

The two tried their best to stop him, and Li Xuan couldn't open it in front of them, so he could only put the parchment scroll away first.

"I'll do as you say. When you find a place to retire, remember to let me know and I'll give you a big gift."

Seeing the two people's reluctant eyes, Li Xuan ran to the reception desk as fast as he could and finally found Jie Li in the self-service area.

Originally, the buffet at the reception desk only required five people to run, but until Jie Li showed up, the number of staff suddenly increased to fifteen.

But even with so many people, they could only barely catch up with the speed at which Xu eats.

Originally, the director of the reception desk wanted to come out to mediate, but after seeing Tian Le's token, he waved his hand and joined in the work.

Li Xuan easily passed by the busy crowd and came to Jie Li.

Excitedly said: "I have a good place here, do you want to go?"

“Where?”

The two of them each held a chicken leg and walked towards the teleportation array at the reception desk while talking.

Seeing this, the employees in the self-service area shed tears of emotion.

……

"Immortal Tomb?" Jie Li was very unfamiliar with this term and had never heard of it before.

"That's right. 'Immortal' represents immortality and a carefree life. It's a romantic term."

Jie Yu was puzzled: "But if immortals are truly immortal, why do immortal tombs exist? Doesn't this mean that immortals can also die?"

This question stunned Li Xuan. To be honest, he subconsciously thought that the Immortal Tomb was the tomb of immortals. After all, in his world, immortals would also die if they encountered a stronger immortal.

However, the only traces of immortals in this universe are in a novel and an immortal tomb that has never been seen. Logically speaking, even if there really are immortals in this universe, there should be no power that can kill them.

"Now that you mention it, the name 'Immortal Tomb' is indeed problematic. It may not be the tomb of immortals, but the tomb of outsiders like us!" Li Xuan felt that he had found a blind spot.

"In that case, why don't we go somewhere else first and talk about the Immortal Tomb later?"

Jie Li: "Such a good opportunity, why should we miss it? Although I can't wait to go to the Immortal Tomb, this matter really needs to be considered in the long run. At the very least, we need to use the teleportation array to travel to other planets first. After purchasing a suitable spaceship, we can travel more flexibly in the universe and search for the Immortal Tomb!"

“Okay.”

After determining the target, the two left Li's home planet through the teleportation array.

Their target is a planet relatively close to the human heartland, called Alsa.

This star is just a transit planet they chose, and generally they will not stay there for long.

It’s just that Jie Li said that he wanted to see more of the scenery of the main universe, so he stayed here for a few more days.

This planet is not a tourist planet and has no iconic buildings. It is a planet developed after humans entered the interstellar age.

The architecture on the planet is full of pragmatism, which is why there is nothing outstanding about the planet. Even in the distant Xingqi Empire, you can see an architectural style similar to that of the planet Alsa.
