Immortals Step into Heaven

As the monsters retreated like a tide, Zheng Yuan and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, the atmosphere at the moment was extremely heavy. The original group of five people was now reduced to only three. They felt a pity for the two who had unfortunately died in the fierce battle just now.

Zheng Yuan, Xu Wen and Tang Shishan stood in place. All three were injured, but the blood on their bodies made the wounds less obvious.

After several people looked at each other, their eyes were filled with complicated emotions. Xu Wen chuckled and said, "Junior Brother Zheng, I didn't expect your strength to be so high. I didn't realize it before!"

Zheng Yuan shook his head slightly, a bitter smile etched across his face, one tinged with endless sadness and exhaustion. "Brother Xu, you're too kind! If it weren't for everyone's concerted efforts, we wouldn't have been able to withstand the monster's attack. It's a stroke of luck that I'm still alive this time."

Xu Wen nodded slightly upon hearing this, but said nothing more. His eyes were somewhat empty as he recalled the thrilling battle, feeling a wave of fear in his heart. He had nearly lost his life several times during the battle, and each brush with death left him terrified.

The ferocious monster pounced on him like a flood, and he fought with all his might, each move carrying a life-or-death decision. Now, although the battle was temporarily over, the tragic scene was deeply imprinted in his mind, lingering.

Tang Shishan's gaze lingered on Zheng Yuan for a long time, his heart aching with complex emotions. He hadn't expected Zheng Yuan to grow so quickly. Recalling his youthful, immature self when they first met, and now, still standing tall after such a fierce battle, he marveled inwardly. Zheng Yuan's current prowess was probably comparable to his own! Tang Shishan shook his head slightly, trying to collect his scattered thoughts.

Tang Shishan said slowly, Junior Brother Zheng, are you okay?

Zheng Yuan smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for your concern, Senior Brother Tang. I only have minor injuries, they are nothing serious."

Tang Shishan looked at Zheng Yuan's expression. After such a brutal battle, he was still so calm. This junior brother was truly extraordinary.

"Two junior brothers, let's quickly clean up these monster corpses!" Xu Wen looked at the monster corpses scattered around, a glint of greed in his eyes.

For them, these monster corpses are not only the fruits of the battle, but also the resources for them to continue moving forward. They must clean them up as soon as possible to avoid being snatched away by others.

Zheng Yuan and Xu Wen exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with tacit understanding. They nodded, and immediately took action with Tang Shishan.

The three of them skillfully collected the monster carcasses into their storage bags, their movements swift and methodical. These monster carcasses were not only the fruits of their battle, but also a vital resource for their future survival.

At the same time, the monks on the city wall also came down and began to excitedly collect the spoils. Everyone's face was filled with the joy of victory. Although the battle was very brutal, the harvest at this moment made them feel a little relieved.

While busy, Zheng Yuan also picked up several storage bags of fallen monks. He felt a little complicated. On the one hand, he felt sorry for the monks' passing, but on the other hand, he understood that in this cruel world, survival is the most important thing.

Zheng Yuan looked at the storage bags of several fallen monks in his hands, and gently stroked the surface of the bags with his fingers.

Not far away, some cultivators were arguing fiercely over monsters and storage bags, some even engaging in physical combat. The sounds of shouting and fighting intertwined, adding to the chaos of the battlefield, already filled with blood and tension.

Zheng Yuan just shook his head slightly after seeing this, feeling helpless. In this cruel world, they were all united against the same enemy just a moment ago.

But everyone was desperate for survival and cultivation resources, their greed and desire exposed at this moment. He knew that he could not change all this and could only stick to his original intention.

He put away his storage bag, not intending to stay here any longer, and turned to walk towards Xu Wen and Tang Shishan. The three of them seemed particularly small in the bustling battlefield.

But they are full of determination, because they understand that the road ahead is still long.

Zheng Yuan and his two companions avoided the noisy and chaotic crowd and headed towards the market. Along the way, they all felt a bit heavy-hearted. The fierce battle they had just experienced and the various scenes before them had given them a deeper understanding of the cruelty of the world of immortal cultivation.

The group quickly arrived at the Law Enforcement Hall, but what they saw was a deserted scene. The once majestic Law Enforcement Hall was now empty, with only cold tables and chairs and a silent atmosphere. This made them feel a sense of unease, as if they had lost something to rely on.

Without further delay, Zheng Yuan, Xu Wen, and Tang Shishan each returned to their rooms in silence. The moment they closed the door, the surroundings seemed to fall silent.

They began to focus on healing, sitting cross-legged, circulating their mana, recovering from the wounds they had sustained in battle. A tranquil atmosphere permeated the room, as they knew only by recovering their strength as quickly as possible could they respond to any unexpected situation.

A day later, Zheng Yuan's injury was almost healed.

Zheng Yuan sat in the room, a look of curiosity on his face as he took out the storage bags and began to examine them. When he saw six corpses of mid-stage first-order demon beasts among them, his heart was slightly moved.

If these monster corpses are used properly, they can play a huge role whether in refining elixirs or creating magical tools.

He then discovered a staggering twenty early-stage demon beast carcasses, a number that truly surprised him. Then, he looked at the four late-stage first-order demon beast carcasses, especially the three that were perfected late-stage first-order demon beasts, whose value was inestimable.

Afterwards, Zheng Yuan checked the spirit stones in his storage bags. When he counted the spirit stones in the three storage bags, which totaled over two thousand, a flicker of joy flashed in his eyes. Spirit stones were an extremely important resource. With these spirit stones, he could purchase more cultivation resources and improve his strength.

Then, he found two top-grade flying swords and several other magical instruments. Now he had over 10,000 low-grade spirit stones.

These magical instruments could greatly enhance his attack and defense in battle. Finally, there were dozens of bottles of medicinal pills. Zheng Yuan looked at this bountiful harvest, feeling both moved and excited.

The cultivators who survived the beast tide this time probably gained a lot of benefits. He also understood that such an opportunity is worse than nothing, after all, it is too dangerous!

After leaving the room, Zheng Yuan noticed that the Law Enforcement Hall had indeed become more crowded. As he'd expected, everyone had probably returned from the battlefield. The hall was bustling with voices, some sharing battle experiences, others discussing their future plans.
