Who Let Him Cultivate Immortality

Chapter 507: Late Golden Elixir stage

Chapter 507: Late Golden Elixir stage

If it were Lu Yang, he figured that if he ever became an immortal, he might be even lazier than the fairy, sunbathing every day, flipping from front to back and back to front, and sleeping on the sun at night.

There are realms above immortals, and even higher realms beyond those. When will this endless cultivation ever end?

"Fairy, you once said that replacement is a form of forgetting. So, if your recipe's authorship changes from you to Heavenly Immortal Ying, wouldn't that be a form of replacement too?"

The Immortal Fairy's eyes lit up, patting Lu Yang's shoulder. "Hey, you have a point. If someone killed me and erased all traces of my existence, turning all my achievements into Heavenly Immortal Ying's, I would have thought it was that bastard Ying's jealousy, impersonating me while I was away."

"You're quite teachable!"

"It's 'a promising young man.'"

Lu Yang thought to himself that Heavenly Immortal Ying must have been brain-damaged from food poisoning to forcibly take over her authorship.

"Is there anyone among the Four Immortals who could erase your existence?"

The Immortal Fairy frowned, thinking through the methods of the Four Immortals but couldn't find a match. "No, none of their methods can achieve that."

After discussing for a while, they couldn't come up with anything more useful.

It wasn't necessarily Heavenly Immortal Ying who killed the fairy; it could have been Kylin Immortal or others who took over her authorship.

Immortal items are rare, and the Immortal Fairy's possessions are even rarer.

Unless they could find the legacy she mentioned buried in the North Star, which would surely have records of ownership, they might deduce something from it.

As they were talking about what to do after the acting sect master term ended, the eldest senior sister returned with the national teacher.

Although they couldn't hear any sound, judging by the national teacher's twisted expression and heart-wrenching look, it seemed the curse hadn't been lifted.

"Eldest senior sister, can't the power of the nation's fate lift the curse?"

"It can, but the Emperor of Xia doesn't want to lift it." The eldest senior sister casually tossed the national teacher aside.

"Why? Didn't Old Meng and Sect Master Qiu's curses get lifted?" Lu Yang was puzzled.

"To be precise, it wasn't lifted but distributed."

"Distributed?"

"Yes, using the power of the nation's fate to distribute the curse to everyone. The result is that everyone would get married fifteen minutes later than their original timeline, which is acceptable."

"But the national teacher's curse is too severe. If distributed to everyone, the consequences would be unimaginable."

Lu Yang understood. No wonder the Emperor of Xia didn't want to lift the curse for the national teacher; he wouldn't either.

"So now..." Lu Yang glanced at the national teacher, who was still rolling around persistently.

"Let him scream for now. We'll think of a solution later."

"Alright."

They couldn't just leave him be, and soul-searching wouldn't work since the national teacher was in the Seven Hardships and Eight Sufferings stage, with chaotic thoughts, making it impossible to extract anything.

If they directly refined him into a spirit tool, not to mention that the Fifth Elder couldn't refine a half-immortal level immortal treasure, even if he could, given the national teacher's state, it would only result in a cursed immortal treasure, greatly reducing its effectiveness.

"The yin energy at Prison Peak is too heavy. Staying too long isn't good. You should go back."

Yun Zhi then said to the Immortal Fairy, "Senior, you did a good job as the acting sect master this time. I'm very satisfied."

The Immortal Fairy touched her nose, feeling a bit smug. "It's just a sect. With my talent, I could be an emperor. Watch me catch a few more Tribulation Crossing stage cultivators and continue being the acting sect master."

"I'll visit the base that the Black and White Venerable mentioned. According to him, there's another Tribulation Crossing stage cultivator in a dormant state that the national teacher hasn't awakened. Only the national teacher knows where this cultivator is sleeping. I'll see if I can find any clues at the base."

The eldest senior sister asked the two to leave first. After they left, she called out the master who was suppressing Prison Peak.

"Master, this is Jin Buqun, the second national teacher of Great Yu. We'll imprison him here for now. Be careful; he has condensed the embryonic form of the Dao fruit of causality."

The master used to think that as a Tribulation Crossing stage cultivator, suppressing Prison Peak was more than enough and considered it a contribution to the sect after retirement.

Now he felt he had overestimated himself; suppressing Prison Peak was too difficult for him.

"Master, don't worry. He's deeply trapped in the Seven Hardships and Eight Sufferings, struggling to protect himself, let alone escape."

To reassure the master, Yun Zhi set up a layer of formations in the cell where the national teacher was imprisoned.

Then she headed to the secret hideout of the national teacher's group.

Leaving Prison Peak, Lu Yang felt a huge burden lifted off his shoulders.

The celebration ended smoothly, the Heavenly Court Sect's prestige was established, the Great Yu national teacher's group was captured, and the fairy's two-month sect master experience voucher expired.

Time to cultivate!

...

Three months passed.

Lu Yang sat cross-legged, with the Qingfeng and Mingyue swords floating on either side of him, emitting faint sword energy.

The Invincible Elixir slowly rotated, continuously absorbing external spiritual power, creating a vortex of spiritual power in his dantian that spun faster and faster.

He pointed two fingers towards the sky and shouted, "Break!"

With this command, Lu Yang's aura burst forth like a flood, unstoppable.

The Qingfeng and Mingyue swords clashed, intertwining their sword energy, leaving marks on the grass.

The sword energy was sharper and more unstoppable than ever before.

"Late Golden Elixir stage."

Two years in the sect, and he reached the late Golden Elixir stage.

Lu Yang smiled as he stood up, feeling the changes in himself. Now, he could easily defeat his former self from three months ago.

For the past three months, he had focused on cultivation, not stepping out of the sect once. Even when Meng Jingzhou invited him out, he refused.

After the celebration, his fame soared. Everyone knew of Lu Yang from the Seek Tao Sect, the first in the mid-Golden Elixir stage to fight the young sect master of the Heavenly Court Sect to a draw.

Some even disregarded the fact that he was Bu Yu Taoist's disciple and came to propose marriage, showing their determination.

Lu Yang had another reason for not going out. If he encountered another Tribulation Crossing stage cultivator, wouldn't the fairy have to be the acting sect master again?

The task of looting the Great Yu cultivators' legacy was proceeding in an orderly manner. The eldest senior sister first went to the base and brought back all the valuable items.

Then, various sects, based on the locations disclosed by the Great Yu cultivators, started their actions. Two or three sects would explore a Great Yu cultivator's treasure trove together.

The Seek Tao Sect sent the Great Elder to lead the team to excavate the treasure trove disclosed by the Black and White Venerable.

As a late Tribulation Crossing stage expert, the Black and White Venerable had so many good things that Lu Yang was dazzled.

Just a few days ago, Lu Yang received news that the Great Yu national teacher, after enduring the Seven Hardships and Eight Sufferings for three months, finally tortured himself to death, his soul scattered, in an extremely tragic scene.
