Cultivating immortality relies on spatial abilities; defying fate to become the protagonist.

Chapter 79: Robbery and Murder
Gu Shihan escorted the cultivators to the outskirts of the Soul Devouring Forest and said, "You may all leave now. I have other things to do!"

After everyone thanked them and took their leave, Wen Yimo asked timidly, "Junior Grandmaster Uncle, may I follow you?"

"Yi Mo, go back to your sect. I can take you to the city ahead and use the teleportation array to go back and have a proper seclusion," Gu Shihan said kindly.

"Yes!" Wen Yimo's eyes darkened. This time, her cultivation level had dropped instead of increased during her training. She had lost her primordial yin and almost lost her life.

These days, I've clearly felt a slight blockage in my cultivation, which is a sign that my foundation is damaged.

Seeing Wen Yimo looking somewhat dejected, Gu Shihan sighed, patted her on the shoulder and said, "Since you've embarked on the path of cultivation, you might encounter any kind of crisis. You'll learn from your mistakes. Just be more careful in the future."

Your spiritual root aptitude is not bad. As long as you cultivate more, your path to immortality won't change much. Here, take this jade bottle. After returning to your sect, go into seclusion and recover your cultivation."

"Grandmaster Uncle, I understand! I will definitely not let you down. You are my idol." Wen Yimo raised her head and said with a firm look in her eyes.

Seeing that she had cheered up again, Gu Shihan breathed a sigh of relief. She still had a good impression of Wen Yimo and did not want her to lose her ambition.

After seeing Wen Yimo off, the next task was to send those dozens of ordinary people home.

Things went relatively smoothly, and they were settled in three days, leaving with peace of mind.

When the last person returned home, the "ding-dong" sound rang out, and Gu Shihan finally felt completely relieved, because her luck had increased after this incident.

Although it's not quite top-grade, the color has changed somewhat, with a hint of blue in the green.

In the world of cultivation, luck is very important. If a person has good luck, they can turn danger into good fortune.

"Sister, where are we planning to go?" Yu Tong asked.

"Back to the Soul Devouring Forest. I haven't collected all the quest items yet. The Soul Devouring Forest is so vast, there must be plenty of good stuff. Everything went too smoothly this time; it didn't really serve as a training exercise. I want to find a few monsters to practice on. Yu Tong, you go back to your space too; I'll go alone."

"Okay! Sister! If there is any danger, be sure to contact me immediately! Don't put yourself in danger!" Yu Tong gave a few instructions, then turned and entered the Moon Bracelet.

Gu Shihan flew on her sword to the vicinity of the Soul Devouring Forest and landed on the clouds.

This is the northern part of the Soul Devouring Forest. Five hundred miles away is Soul Devouring City, a place where all sorts of people mingle. Murder and robbery are common occurrences in this area.

Seeing the deep, lush forest, Gu Shihan's eyes flickered slightly, and suddenly she felt as if she were being locked onto.

Gu Shihan plunged into the dense forest, becoming wary. If someone could make her feel a sense of urgency, then the person watching her must be more powerful than herself.

Gu Shihan was puzzled. She hadn't offended anyone, so who wanted to harm her?! Was it a robbery?

This is the first time Gu Shihan has felt like she's been targeted since she came to this world.

Secretly on guard, he pretended not to notice and continued walking forward without making a sound.

With a measured pace, he spotted a large tree, quickly affixed an invisibility talisman to his body, and leaped onto a branch, holding his breath and concentrating on finding the source of the lock.

Sure enough, a few breaths later, the three male cultivators came into Gu Shihan's line of sight.

Gu Shihan clicked her tongue. One of them was an acquaintance; she was that person's savior, Wu Xun! It seemed she had saved a thankless wretch! "Wu Xun, is the person you're talking about really a disciple of Venerable Danhua?" the tall male cultivator asked.

The tall male cultivator was quite powerful, at the peak of the late Golden Core stage, just one step away from reaching the Nascent Soul stage.

However, this person seemed to be shrouded in an aura of death. "Is this resentment?! It seems this person is not a good person; he has many wronged souls on his hands."

There was another person Gu Shihan didn't recognize. He was in the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, and he didn't look like a good person at all; he had a fierce look on his face.

Needless to say, that acquaintance was quite something. Although he was handsome, Gu Shihan had already experienced his mean-spirited and cunning nature.

Gu Shihan didn't move, but decided to listen to what they were saying.

Wu Xun said somewhat ingratiatingly, "Brother, yes! I noticed that she had two Qiankun Houses, and I stayed in one of them."

She must have had a lot of her elixir; with so many of us, she didn't even blink before giving each of us a small bottle.

Although it was only a few drops, it was spiritual liquid! And the pills she used were all top-grade pills. When have we ever used top-grade pills?

I'm sure there are plenty of other good things. If we can get our hands on them, we brothers won't have to worry about cultivation resources anymore. The taste of that spiritual liquid is still unforgettable to this day..."

Wu Xun sighed with satisfaction, which made Gu Shihan realize that it was her kindness that had made people covet her belongings.

Gu Shihan sighed, "The old saying is true, money really does tempt people! It seems I was too naive and forgot that this is a world where people kill without shedding blood, a thousand times more bloody than my previous life."

Indeed, in Gu Shihan's memory, although she was not a good person in her previous life, she never harmed any innocent people except for those on missions, and most of the time she was on the path of saving people from suffering.

For example, the purpose of robbing and killing drug dealers is to save people, a large number of people.

Furthermore, ordinary people in their previous lives didn't have to worry about being killed. Everyone lived ordinary lives, following the path of birth, aging, sickness, and death. Thinking about it now, I still yearn for that kind of peaceful and tranquil life.

Gu Shihan shook her head and continued listening to their plans.

Another male cultivator analyzed, "Brother! Wu Xun, what you said is true. These are the chosen ones of heaven, and they have many life-saving items on them, and even divine imprints. We have to be careful, because if we make a mistake, disaster will befall us."

“Liu Hai, you’re right. We must be careful. However, now that she’s entered the Soul Devouring Forest, which is a hundred and eight thousand miles away from the Five Flowers Sect, there’s a lot more room for maneuver. Huh! She’s disappeared?” the tall male cultivator asked in surprise.

"What should we do? Did she discover something?" Wu Xun asked anxiously.

"It's possible. Maybe we should give up. The disciples of a Nascent Soul True Venerable are not so easy to deal with!" The cultivator named Liu Hai became somewhat uncertain.

"Liu Hai, you want to give up? We finally found a fat sheep, and you're just going to give up like this? Don't be envious of what we get later!" the tall male cultivator sneered.

"Brother, do you have a foolproof plan?" Liu Hai asked hesitantly.

"Hmm, Wu Xun has to step up. Wu Xun! Didn't she save you before? When the time comes, you go and approach her, put this on her, and she'll collapse in less than three breaths. Then she'll be at our mercy, won't she?" The tall male cultivator smiled sinisterly.
