System Bestows me with Immortality, Living on to Eventually Become Invincible-Chapter 80 – Others strive for success day and night, while we sit back and watch the changing times

They sat directly on the grass. Chen Xun lay down, feeling the breeze on his face, lost in thought.

"Moo?" Black Bull nudged Chen Xun.

"Bull, you want to hear my answer?"

"Moo~"

"My thought is, if it's about family and friends, there's no need to distinguish between immortals and mortals."

Chen Xun said softly, "Mortals live for a hundred years, experiencing countless separations and reunions, yet they live happily. Pain is temporary; even ordinary people don't dwell in the past forever."

"Moo~" Black Bull nodded heavily. They had seen many people off in the small village, and those who remained lived well afterward.

"But the lifespan of a Foundation Establishment cultivator is only four hundred years. If their mindset is too affected, their masters might worry it would hinder their cultivation."

Chen Xun smiled slightly, looking at the vast, clean sky with drifting white clouds like sails on the sea.

He continued to murmur, "Cutting off mortal ties... Ah, what are mortal ties? Aren't we all human? The world of immortals is no different from the mortal world in terms of human relationships."

"Moo!" Black Bull nudged Chen Xun hard, clearly wanting to hear something else.

"What are you doing!" Chen Xun feigned anger, pretending to be confused.

"Moo!" Black Bull snorted and nudged Chen Xun again.

"I still have a batch of pills to refine. Ximen Black Bull, we'll meet again." Chen Xun lay on the ground, clasped his hands, and disappeared in a flash.

"Moo!" Black Bull roared and hurriedly chased after him, feeling that Chen Xun was brushing him off again.

In the distance, a man and a bull started tussling, with occasional loud shouts:

"Bull, we're different. We seek longevity. Do you think I want to play with dolls in the mortal world, sending people off every day and then sighing like you? Do I look like I have nothing better to do?"

"Moo!" Black Bull roared, and Chen Xun exclaimed as he was sent flying into the sky.

"Damn you!" Chen Xun shouted angrily, "I know what you want to hear. Fine, I'll tell you!"

"Moo moo!"

Black Bull grinned. He loved hearing Chen Xun tell stories. He quickly stood obediently next to Chen Xun, no longer causing trouble.

"The matter with Senior Brother Ji is a matter of life and death. It's different. If handled well, it's a small matter and won't affect much."

Chen Xun did things his way, never reaching the height of a saint. He never sought cause and effect with friends and never asked for anything in return.

Cause and effect were for strangers. Even if something happened to Ji Kun now, they would have no regrets, having done all they could without interfering with others' paths.

"But with Senior Sister Liu and Senior Brother Shi, can I speak recklessly? My advice is never to give life advice to others."

Chen Xun said irritably, "We seek longevity. Can our mindset be the same as others'? Others seize the day, but we don't compete. We're not from the same world."

"Feeding others chicken soup recklessly could poison them. We just need to live well, like Le Feng. Should we force-feed him a Foundation Establishment Pill?"

"Moo moo~~"

Black Bull kept nudging Chen Xun affectionately, understanding but puzzled about the chicken soup they made. It wasn't poisonous...

"Bull, let's cultivate. In the future, we'll head to the imperial city. I'll buy you some good fabric to make clothes."

"Moo? Moo moo moo?"

"Of course, it's true. The best things in the world are in the imperial city. We'll broaden our horizons then, haha."

"Moo~~~!" Black Bull jumped up in joy. Chen Xun was the best at making clothes. They then continued with their cultivation plan.

...

...

Seasons passed—spring deepened, summer lightened, autumn cooled, and winter chilled.

Time flew by in cultivation. Thirty years had passed since they parted with Shi Jing and Liu Yuan.

After returning, they were sad for a while. Chen Xun comforted them and made a good meal. Then they bid farewell and prepared for secluded cultivation.

Chen Xun and Black Bull understood that cultivators spent most of their time cultivating and seeking opportunities. Their lives might not be as exciting as a mortal's hundred years.

Meanwhile, in the Five Aggregates Sect, a genius youth emerged, reaching the late Foundation Establishment stage in less than a hundred years!

But no one suspected a Heavenly Spirit Root because the sect claimed it was a girl.

However, this person was arrogant and looked down on peers, even challenging senior cultivators, only to be taught a lesson by the peak masters, becoming much more subdued.

Yet, wherever he went, there were exclamations, and junior brothers and sisters pursued him closely.

Many Foundation Establishment cultivators in the sect frowned secretly, not fond of him.

From his demeanor, Chen Xun and Black Bull thought he was like a child, untested by the world.

The difference between being worldly and not was significant. Living longer didn't mean more maturity. A child cultivating for a thousand years might still have an unchanged mindset and experience.

But this was a minor matter for them. Chen Xun was known as the weakest in duels among Foundation Establishment cultivators, using Qi cultivation spells.

Their techniques were common, and ordinary people wouldn't be targeted by geniuses and strong cultivators. They quietly did their duties in the Five Aggregates Sect.

The longevity points accumulated over thirty years were initially intended to enhance mana, but after reaching 51, no warm flow circulated within them. They realized Foundation Establishment had a threshold.

They had to allocate the remaining points to defense, crucial for improving techniques and spells to protect their meridians.

Their current longevity points: Strength 21, Speed 21, World Soul 20, Mana 51, Defense 32.

Chen Xun and Black Bull never thought of themselves as strong or sought to hone themselves through battles. Even though their spell enhancements had reached a terrifying level...

They walked the world, content with mediocrity, not provoking others, and having the ability to protect themselves. They didn't seek the invincible Dao heart; their ambitions lay elsewhere.

Today, in the Spiritual Medicine Garden.

Chen Xun's face was calm. He stepped out of his cave abode, and ripples of void energy surged behind him, with shadows appearing as if an invisible roar was rising.

A breeze swept the surrounding grass, and in the blink of an eye, he was at the garden entrance, merging with the elements, a step spanning worlds.

"Moo~" Black Bull called softly, appearing silently beside Chen Xun, moving swiftly without a sound.

"Bull, let's go." Chen Xun smiled faintly.

"Moo~" Black Bull handed a rope to Chen Xun with his mouth.

Their bodies surged with immense mana, their spiritual senses greatly enhanced. They were now mid-Foundation Establishment cultivators!

But Foundation Establishment Pills were no longer effective for further advancement.

Chen Xun and Black Bull exchanged a glance. Their mana was slowly diminishing, their realm gradually falling, their cultivation only slightly better than when they first broke through.

Walking along, Chen Xun said, "Bull, after years of summarizing, I've finally determined a direction."

"Moo?"

"A spell, a body refining technique, a movement technique, a cultivation method, three mountain-axing axes, and a few detection techniques. That's enough for now."

Chen Xun's lips curled into a mysterious smile, "Greed leads to failure. For example, using the Fireball Technique as a starting point, infinitely enhancing it!"

He had tried fusing various small spells to create new ones for years without success. He hadn't reached that level yet.

But through enhancement, practicing many spells, and exploring their routes, he had grasped a hint of inspiration and begun to implement it.
