Who Let Him Cultivate Immortality

Chapter 508: In theory, I am now in the Elemental Infant stage

Chapter 508: In theory, I am now in the Elemental Infant stage

"Congratulations, congratulations! You've finally reached the late Golden Elixir stage." Immortal Fairy clapped her hands, beaming with joy.

"Your cultivation speed is quite impressive, just a bit slower than mine. It's almost on par with Jiuchong Immortal and Kylin Immortal."

The speed of cultivation isn't the most crucial factor in becoming an immortal, but it does indicate one's potential for immortality.

"Seeing you work so hard reminds me of how Jiuchong Immortal and the others used to train like their lives depended on it, always in a rush, as if their pants were on fire. Truly diligent."

Lu Yang nodded. In ancient times, the competition was fierce. Falling behind even a step meant lagging in every aspect. The rigorous training of Jiuchong Immortal and the others was a reflection of that intense competition.

In contrast, although it's said that a grand era is approaching with talents emerging, the zeal for cultivation now is not as strong as in ancient times. People like Meng Jingzhou, who waste their days idling and doing tasks outside, are looked down upon for delaying their cultivation.

"Unfortunately, no matter how diligent they are, their cultivation speed can't match mine. I always defeat them in battles beyond my level."

"Speaking of which, although they can't beat me, their escape speed has improved. There were a few times I almost couldn't catch them."

Lu Yang thought to himself that Jiuchong Immortal and the others were probably training so hard to match his cultivation level and avoid getting beaten up.

"At my current cultivation speed, I'll reach the Elemental Infant stage in at most six months." Since Lu Yang began his cultivation, he had never encountered any bottlenecks. With his sword spiritual root, his cultivation was swift and unstoppable, breaking through any obstacles and bottlenecks.

"Actually, you can already be considered at the Elemental Infant stage," Immortal Fairy said with a knowing smile.

"Why?"

"What is the hallmark of reaching the Elemental Infant stage?"

"Training a spiritual soul in the dantian, manifesting as an infant." This was the definition of the Elemental Infant stage in the cultivation world, something Lu Yang had memorized long ago.

The eldest senior sister had a belly full of Golden Elixirs. She chose one to shatter and form an infant, while the rest remained in the Golden Elixir state. According to the hallmark of the stage, she was considered at the Elemental Infant stage, not the Golden Elixir stage.

"Exactly. Now, this Immortal is in a spiritual soul state. As long as I stay in your dantian, doesn't that make you at the Elemental Infant stage?"

"Moreover, you can already challenge higher levels outside the Seek Tao Sect. You have the true combat power of the Elemental Infant stage."

"You have the hallmark of the Elemental Infant stage, and you have its combat power. If you aren't at the Elemental Infant stage, who is?"

Lu Yang: "..."

I don't have a problem with it, but I'm afraid other Elemental Infants might not agree.

"Don't doubt it. When the ancient forebears were exploring cultivation stages, this was the original Elemental Infant stage."

"When they reached the Golden Elixir stage and found no way forward, someone refined a beast's spiritual soul into their dantian, gaining unparalleled power, enough to crush all Golden Elixir stages. The ancient forebears named this stage the Elemental Infant stage."

"But this Elemental Infant stage came with a price: a short lifespan, and the beast's spiritual soul was incompatible with the human body, leading to sudden death."

"Gradually, someone shattered their Golden Elixir and discovered a small person emerging from it, which was their own spiritual soul."

"Thus, the current Elemental Infant stage was established."

Just as the initial Golden Elixir stage used beast cores as substitutes, the human race relied on the power of beasts when exploring the Elemental Infant stage.

The method of using beast cores as substitutes for Golden Elixirs still exists today. In the cultivation world, this Golden Elixir stage is called the pseudo-core stage.

"So that's how it is."

Lu Yang suddenly understood. The Immortal Fairy had finally told a story that, while not immediately useful, was indeed an orthodox ancient secret.

Suddenly, Lu Yang vaguely heard the sounds of fighting in the distance.

"That direction... is it the mountain gate?"

Lu Yang was surprised. How could there be fighting at the mountain gate? Is someone attacking the Seek Tao Sect?

Such a blatant attack, even the national teacher wouldn't dare to do it.

"Let's go take a look." Immortal Fairy suggested excitedly, eager for some excitement.

Lu Yang descended the mountain and ran into Meng Jingzhou, who was also heading to check out the situation.

"What's going on?"

"No idea, I'm just going to see."

"Let's go together."

"Alright."

The sounds of fighting were intense. It wasn't just Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou; many senior brothers and sisters were heading to the mountain gate to see what was happening. The place was crowded with people.

The closer they got to the mountain gate, the more intense the fighting sounds became.

When they arrived, they saw several Body Fusion stage cultivators fighting in the air. Their moves were ruthless and swift, showcasing the prowess of the Body Fusion stage.

Lu Yang recognized one of the Body Fusion stage cultivators—it was Bu Yu Taoist.

"Hey, what's going on? I just returned to the sect, and now you're ambushing me at the gate?" Bu Yu Taoist shouted, dodging attacks nimbly. Despite his disheveled appearance, his movements were agile, and none of the attacks hit him.

"Who would waste their time ambushing you? You walked right into our trap!" The other Body Fusion cultivators coordinated their attacks seamlessly, giving Bu Yu Taoist no chance to catch his breath.

"A great wind arises!"

A hurricane roared, lifting immense clouds of dust and even blowing huge rocks into the sky.

The tornado of dust and sand rushed towards Bu Yu Taoist.

Bu Yu Taoist swept his whisk, cutting through the tornado.

"Then why are you here at the Seek Tao Sect?"

"We originally came to propose marriage for your disciple Lu Yang, but seeing you at the gate, we decided that proposing wasn't important. Beating you up was."

The other Body Fusion cultivators nodded in agreement.

Lu Yang understood. His master had finally returned to the sect and coincidentally ran into the marriage proposal party. Upon seeing Bu Yu Taoist, they couldn't contain their anger and attacked him together.

Well, Lu Yang had no intention of helping his master.

The other senior brothers and sisters were also watching the fight, showing no signs of intervening. Perhaps because Body Fusion stage battles were rare, everyone was engrossed in learning from the fight.

Especially Tao Yaoye, who was studying the battle intently. This was a real Body Fusion stage fight, with moves more ruthless than usual magic fights, making it perfect for her "Dreamlike Mirage."

Tao Yaoye had showcased "Dreamlike Mirage" during a celebration, receiving much praise. After the celebration, with the sect's support, she was vigorously promoting "Dreamlike Mirage," which was already gaining traction.

The target audience for "Dreamlike Mirage" was mortals and low-level cultivators. The ticket prices weren't high, but overall, it made more money than Lu Yang's flying car patent fees.

Among the younger generation, Meng Jingzhou had the most spirit stones, followed by Tao Yaoye, with Lu Yang in third place.

Man Gu, being a treasured member of the barbarians, had plenty of pocket money and ranked fourth.

Fifth was Li Haoran, but that was only temporary. Once he married Su Yi and they had joint property, his wealth ranking would quickly rise to second.

Eventually, Bu Yu Taoist found an opening in the attacks, transformed into a sword light, and flew into the sect. The marriage proposal party of Body Fusion cultivators gave up the chase, leaving with some regret.

Covered in dust and looking disheveled, Bu Yu Taoist tried to catch his breath.

He had just passed by the sect to take a look. Who would have thought there would be enemies at the entrance?

"Master, what's the grudge between you and them?" Lu Yang asked curiously.

"Hard to say."

"Hard to say?"

"Too many enemies, can't remember."

The second update will be at eleven o'clock.
