Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

In Vegetable Basket Village, Erwa's mother's condition had greatly improved, and she no longer needed to stay in town for treatment. So, on this day, Erwa's father brought her back home.

This was a great joyous occasion, so the villagers of Vegetable Basket Village spontaneously prepared a simple feast to celebrate Erwa's mother's return.

As the great benefactor of Erwa's family, Chen Tian was naturally among those invited. So, from noon until evening, Chen Tian was urged to drink by different people for different reasons. Chen Tian had been in the village for several years and had long since integrated into it, so he didn't decline. He accepted all toasts and drank them clean.

Seeing Chen Tian so generous, the villagers became even more enthusiastic, taking turns to challenge Chen Tian to drinking contests.

However, after drinking until night, Chen Tian didn't get drunk, but the men in the village were all staggering drunk and unconscious. This included Erwa, who couldn't hold his liquor but was too happy and got himself drunk.

Those left to clean up the mess were naturally the women of Vegetable Basket Village.

After washing the dishes and cleaning the floor, they helped their respective men back home.

Chen Tian didn't stay long either. After chatting with Erwa's father for a few words, he returned to his own dilapidated house.

The moonlight was like water, projecting through the wooden window onto the bed. Chen Tian lay in the silvery moonlight, quietly spacing out.

It had been more than two years since he came to Vegetable Basket Village. In these two years, Chen Tian had not used any spiritual power. He did everything himself.

And in the evening, Chen Tian didn't breathe in and out as usual, but went to sleep like an ordinary person.

He worked at sunrise and rested at sunset.

For two years, Chen Tian had been living this kind of life.

It could be said that Chen Tian had gradually become just like a real mortal.

However, this didn't mean that Chen Tian had been doing useless work for the past two years. In fact, while living the life of a mortal, Chen Tian vaguely sensed many details and subtleties that he had previously overlooked.

Especially when interacting with the simple villagers of Vegetable Basket Village, Chen Tian seemed to gradually forget the scheming and extremely treacherous life of the past, and his heart became as bright as a clear spring.

Here, Chen Tian no longer had to worry or be wary of deceit. He could open his heart to embrace the world. And the world was also embracing him in another way.

A state of mind like still water gradually arose in Chen Tian's heart.

However, after a whole day of excitement, Chen Tian suddenly felt sleepless. He tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.

So he simply sat up from the bed and quietly gazed at the moon hanging in the sky through the window.

But after looking around the blacksmith shop, the two couldn't help but feel a little depressed, because the shelves were filled with kitchen knives, hoes, and other household items.

Although these utensils were extremely sharp, they were not something they valued.

"Huh, could it be that this isn't the place?" After scanning the blacksmith shop, one of the thin men asked suspiciously.

This person was the leader of the Gale Tiger Gang.

"No, this is the place. Look at these kitchen knives, they are exactly the same as the previous one."

The other person was the old man in purple shirt and white hair. He stroked a kitchen knife on the shelf and said in a firm tone.

"Then could it be that we guessed wrong? There aren't any good treasures here as we expected?" The thin man asked again.

However, upon hearing this, the purple-shirted old man's face suddenly turned gloomy: "What, are you doubting me?"

Seeing the purple-shirted old man's sinister appearance, the thin man was immediately startled and hurriedly said in horror: "No… I definitely don't mean that."

"Hmph, then shut your mouth and search everywhere."

The purple-shirted old man scolded him unhappily, and then began searching in the small blacksmith shop.

The thin man seemed quite depressed by this scolding, but he didn't dare to argue, so he had to follow along and search in the blacksmith shop.

But just as he turned around, he seemed to suddenly discover something and exclaimed in horror: "Immortal Master… Immortal Master… look here…"

"Shh, why are you so loud? What if you disturb someone?" The purple-shirted old man scolded as he walked over.

However, the thin man's face was full of joy. Ignoring his scolding, he pulled the purple-shirted old man over and said excitedly: "Immortal Master, look at that corner!"

Following the direction of the thin man's finger, the purple-shirted old man immediately discovered that in the southwest corner of the blacksmith shop, there was a thick layer of debris piled up.

In addition to iron filings and residue left over from smelting iron, there were also several scattered magical treasures of various styles.

Some of these magical treasures were bronze cauldrons, some were ancient mirrors, and there were countless weapons in the shape of knives and swords!

However, it was unclear what had happened, but these magical treasures all had some cracks or gaps, making them seem not so perfect.

However, after seeing these magical treasures, the purple-shirted old man's eyes suddenly burst out with endless greed, and he couldn't help but shout: "We're rich, we're rich, there are so many good treasures, we've made a fortune!"

After being happy for a while, the purple-shirted old man no longer delayed. He took out a cyan storage bag and squatted down, picking out those strangely shaped magical treasures from the scrap iron and waste residue and putting them into the storage bag.

The thin man on the side seemed to have woken up as well. He also took out a blue cloth bag and, together with the purple-shirted old man, picked out all the magical treasures from the pile of garbage.

There were a large number of magical treasures here, stacked one on top of another, distributed in a tower shape.

The magical treasures on the top layer were the least damaged. The purple-shirted old man and the thin man easily swept them out and put them into the storage bags.

And just after cleaning up this layer, a bronze bell with a crack appeared in front of them.

Although this bronze bell had a crack, it was condensed with thick spiritual power, and it looked like an item with considerable power.

Seeing this, the purple-shirted old man and the thin man's eyes became even more greedy. They stretched out their hands and simultaneously pressed on the bronze bell.

But at this moment, an unexpected phenomenon occurred!
