Record of the Immortal Corpse

In the cultivation world, there is a piece of common knowledge everyone knows: the higher your cultivation, the closer you are to the Heavenly Dao, and the clearer your state of mind becomes, until all fear fades away.

But no one tells you this: those who stand at the very top have not stopped feeling fear. They simply no longer dare to show it.

Because the moment they reveal even the slightest trace of fear, "that thing" will crawl over from the end of the path to immortality.

Inside a dilapidated hall, a pockmarked Daoist told a group of children, "Humans are the most intelligent of all creatures. If I drain your life force and fortune, you can replace the main ingredient in an elixir of immortality. Who is willing to sacrifice themselves and help your master become an immortal?"
