I have Immortality In The Cultivation World

Sun Changsheng suppressed the sorrow in his heart and let out a long howl.

“My children, come here.”

The sound traveled a hundred miles, and monkey troops gathered from all over the mountain, tens of thousands of them, densely perched on the trees.

“I have traveled overseas to seek immortality and have cultivated the technique of everlasting life. Today, I return to transmit it to you all, so we can roam the world in joy and freedom.”

Chatter chatter chatter…

The monkey crowd burst into a noisy clamor, quite receptive to this bearded and thunder-mouthed Daoist.

The current chieftain of Monkey Mountain stepped forth from the crowd, a silver-backed giant ape over ten feet tall. He thumped his chest, booming like a drum, then gestured at Sun Changsheng to bring it on.

The monkey troop revered the strong, for the one who defeated the chieftain could take his place.

The silver-backed giant ape, an extraordinary breed that had also fortuitously consumed spirit grass, possessed boundless strength, enough to tear tigers and leopards apart.

Sun Changsheng nodded slightly and said, “You have good talent. In the future, I will teach you the Body Refinement Technique, and you can become a patrolling general!”

Still harboring anger from before, the silver-backed giant ape charged forward on all fours, and with a giant leap, threw a fist at Sun Changsheng.

“Freeze!”

As soon as Sun Changsheng spoke, the spell followed, trapping the silver-backed giant ape in mid-air, its eyes the only thing that could move, making its expression quite comical.

Chatter chatter chatter…

The monkeys had never seen such a mysterious spell and let out exclamations of wonder, all kneeling and bowing to Sun Changsheng, hailing him as the Great King.

“Well done, well done, well done!”

Sun Changsheng was born a monkey and had lived on Monkey Mountain for hundreds of years; the belief in his supremacy had thoroughly become part of his core identity.

To Sun Changsheng, Innate qualities and an indestructible body were just peculiarities of some monkeys.

Time had passed, but now, receiving the adulation of the monkey crowd once again, Sun Changsheng felt an excited agitation reminiscent of the time when he first burst forth from the stone, scratching his ears and cheeks in his exhilaration.

After a long while, he calmed his emotions. Sun Changsheng waved his hand, calling forth a great expanse of five-colored clouds to the mountain peak.

Then with a point to the ground, the earth and rocks transformed, and in an instant, a Daoist temple was erected, with three characters inscribed on the signboard above the entrance.

Longevity Temple.

Auspicious clouds veiled the temple, imparting a somewhat ethereal and immortal air.

Satisfied, Sun Changsheng nodded. His master had forbidden the propagation of his name but had not prohibited Sun from making the name of Longevity Temple known. He said to the crowd of monkeys,

“Your king will chant scriptures every morning; remember to come and listen!”

The next morning.

The crowd of monkeys came to pay their respects.

Sun Changsheng manipulated a stone platform into existence, sat on it in an imitation of meditation, and began to recite the Daoist scriptures.

The first one was the “Supreme Life-Extending Seal.”

“This technique is the first Cultivation Technique I acquired after seeking immortality for a hundred years. I pondered over it the longest. Though it seems simple, its implications are profound. Remember, the pursuit of immortality is not for strife and battles, but for everlasting life!”

“A thousand Cultivation Techniques, ten thousand Divine Skills, all for this alone!”

The monkeys nodded with enthusiasm, sitting on the ground, perching on trees, and lying on the grass, listening intently as Sun Changsheng imparted the Immortal Law.

The wisdom of ordinary monkeys was simple and their understanding couldn’t compare with that of Sun Changsheng. But as they listened day after day, they inevitably learned something and gradually came to comprehend the Qi Refinement Technique.

The intelligence of the monkey race was already far superior to other wild beasts, and as they transformed into monkey demons, their intellect grew immensely, and their behavior became no different from humans.

Near Longevity Temple, they built their own dwellings and temples, imitating Sun Changsheng’s morning and evening rituals, worshipping an idol labeled Patriarch of Longevity.

In the mountains, time flowed differently; spring passed and winter returned.

A century slipped by.

Houses spread out over Monkey Mountain, each and every monkey donning Daoist robes, reciting Daoist scriptures, their speech and behavior devoid of any coarse or feral traits.

“The master often spoke of enlightenment; perhaps this is what he meant.”

With this realization, Sun Changsheng’s cultivation of the heaven-mending secret techniques and the cycle of reincarnation sutras improved significantly. His Primordial Spirit grew to four or five feet in length, harmonizing with his body, initiating the early stages of fusion.

If a Divine Transformation Heavenly Monarch knew of this, they would be astounded. They, who had groped and pondered for hundreds or thousands of years, couldn’t match Sun Changsheng’s sudden enlightenment.

At this time.

Monkey Mountain already harbored four Golden Core Demon Kings, one of which was the former chieftain, the silver-backed giant ape, whom Sun Changsheng had named Sun Dali.

The other Golden Core and Foundation Establishment monkey demons also took the surname Sun and chose their own names.

In the secluded lands of the Eastern Sea, seldom passed by Heavenly Court Righteous Gods, the changes on Monkey Mountain went unnoticed.

Knowing the severity of the heavenly laws, Sun Changsheng had set rules at the outset of his teachings: the monkey demons were forbidden from descending the mountain on their own, lest they encounter Mountain Gods and land spirits, as well as the ruling Taisui. He also arranged mysterious arrays and prohibitions on Monkey Mountain, cloaking it in year-round clouds and fog, obscuring the details within from outside view.

Even if someone were to accidentally pass by and see, they would only assume someone was in secluded cultivation.

On this day.

The sky was clear and blue.

A crimson trace of light flew over, cutting across the firmament straight toward Monkey Mountain.

Seeing the mist ahead, it collided without dodging, creating a booming sound that shook the surroundings.

The trace of light recoiled several miles, revealing its form—a bear demon over thirty feet tall.

With a fierce face and bloodshot eyes, red fur covered its entire body, and even its claws were red, appearing from afar like a floating blood cloud in the sky.

A lightning strike from its left shoulder to its abdomen had almost split the bear demon in two. Nearby the wound, lightning flickered, with tiny sparks expanding in every direction.

“Damn it! Who has occupied this Monkey Mountain?”

The bear demon cursed angrily, recognizing that he couldn’t breach the formation in a short time, and thus decided to seek elsewhere for a place to cultivate in stealth.

Just as it was about to leave, more than a dozen traces of light flew from all directions, encircling the bear demon in the air.

The lights revealed their forms, all heavenly soldiers clad in golden armor with the word Taisui engraved on them.

The leader, who had the body of a human and the head of a dragon, held a lightning-flecked Treasure Bead in his hand. He looked coldly at the bear demon and scolded,

“Blood Bear, surrender at once! Go to the Immortal Slaying Stage and accept your fate. Wouldn’t it be better to be reincarnated sooner?”

“The dragon race truly brings shame to its ancestors!”
