Who Let Him Cultivate?! (WX)-Chapter 340: The Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s Dilemma

The scripture library of the Dao-Seeking Sect housed more cultivation techniques than the Great Xia Dynasty’s imperial palace. A multitude of cultivation techniques, spanning the ages and written by generations of sect elders, were stored within the scripture library.

Here, Lu Yang also discovered the Pure Yang Cultivation Technique, which Meng Jingzhou practiced.

Compared to Lu Yang, Meng Jingzhou had it much easier in terms of cultivation technique. Generations of Single’s Spirit Root predecessors had paved a bright and unobstructed path for him. All he needed was to follow it, and the destination would be the glorious Transcendent Tribulation Stage.

However, Lu Yang didn’t know whether Meng Jingzhou could still tread on this preordained path after breaking the lower limits of his Single’s Spirit Root predecessors and pioneering the Double Single’s Spirit Root.

“Why is it so thin?” Lu Yang was puzzled. The Pure Yang Cultivation Technique I’m holding includes both the cultivation methods of the Golden Core and Nascent Soul Stages. No matter how concise, it can’t be this thin, right?

When he opened the book, only one sentence greeted him.

Jiayou! Don’t lose your virginity. Your cultivation has only just begun!

Lu Yang, “...”

Indeed, many cultivators with a Single’s Spirit Root had reached the Fusion or Transcendent Tribulation Stages. Compared to these two major realms, the Golden Core Stage is merely the starting line.

“So the secret to your Single’s Spirit Root Lineage is just to keep your virginity?”

Lu Yang had heard of a Single’s Spirit Root senior who had reached the Transcendent Tribulation Stage after toiling through countless hardships. In celebration, he booked out every brothel in the imperial city and indulged himself for one full month, single-handedly inflating the pricing standards of the capital’s brothels.

The very definition of “revenge spending.”

But those with a Single’s Spirit Root still differed from those in the Buddhist sects.

Buddhist sects emphasized dispelling desires. To them, beautiful women were female skeletons, ultimately turning into a pile of bones; they were ephemeral illusions unworthy of attachment.

On the other hand, those with a Single’s Spirit Root were unable to eradicate such desires. In fact, these desires would intensify along with their advancement in cultivation stage. Faced with such situations, the only recourse was endurance. If they reached a breaking point, they might even start viewing female skeletons as beautiful women.

Lu Yang also stumbled upon an unusual cultivation technique—Body-Sacrificing Spell. As the name implied, it was a cultivation technique that involved sacrificing oneself. It stemmed from the philosophy that all things originated from nature and must ultimately return to nature.

Since everyone originated from nature, why not let oneself return to nature?

Practitioners of this cultivation technique must sacrifice a part of their body in exchange for a boost in cultivation talent and realm. Therefore, these people often became blind, mute, or had their bodies horrifically maimed, with some even reduced to near-empty husks.

Though this cultivation technique was somewhat extreme, it did not yet fall under the diabolic path.

Lu Yang knew of a senior brother who practiced it.

At the Qi Training Stage, he offered his appendix. At the Foundation Establishment Stage, he offered his body fat. At the Golden Core Stage, he offered his hair. At the Nascent Soul Stage, he offered his eyesight. He was now nearsighted and had to wear spectacles.

“All things originate from nature and must ultimately return to nature—what a familiar saying. The Epoch Immortal once said something similar. He told me that all things prosper and decline, and that prosperity and decline are like transient blossoms in the face of nature. Only by emulating nature and returning to the primal state can one attain eternal strength.

“The Epoch Immortal’s words resolved my longstanding question. Imbued with inspiration, I wrote the Everlasting Immortal Art and ascended to an immortal.”

“Immortal Fairy, with how smart you are, what question could have possibly troubled you?”

Though the Everlasting Immortal Fairy was delighted to hear such praise from Lu Yang, she felt that she had to maintain some decorum and appear aloof in front of Lu Yang. I can’t smile so widely just because Lu Yang praised me with a few words.

“Although my talent stands unparalleled throughout the ages, surpassing even the Heaven Mandate Immortal and the others, I still encountered challenges concerning immortal ascension.”

Lu Yang nodded. Immortal ascension is key for cultivators. It’s understandable that the Everlasting Immortal Fairy encountered some difficulties in this aspect. “Was it about how to form your Dao Fruit?”

“It was about which Dao Fruit to form.”

Lu Yang, “...” ƒгeewёbnovel.com

“Back then, I had numerous options: the Heaven Mandate Immortal’s 'Tribulation Mandate Dao Fruit,' the 'Void Dao Fruit' which was proficient in mysterious spatial wonders, and the 'Time Passage Dao Fruit,' similar to the Epoch Immortal’s. However, I wasn’t satisfied with any of them because they couldn’t showcase my brilliance.

“Based on my progress, I should have been the first to become an immortal, ahead of the Nine-Layers Immortal and the Epoch Immortal. Unfortunately, I struggled when choosing a Dao Fruit because I couldn’t decide which to form.

“And that was how I got delayed just a tiny bit—I swear, it was just a tiny bit!” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy stressed how short a delay it was by gesturing with her thumb and forefinger pinched together.

Lu Yang had no idea about her definition of “a tiny bit.” Was it a few days, months, or years?

Given the Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s claim of being sixteen years old, Lu Yang was distrustful of her concept of time.

“Later, the Nine-Layers Immortal, Epoch Immortal, Heaven Mandate Immortal, and Qilin Immortal ascended one after another, leaving me behind!” Her nose wrinkled in displeasure.

“When the Qilin Immortal ascended, the Epoch Immortal gave me that piece of advice, which sparked my epiphany. Finally, I formed the Everlasting Dao Fruit, which all of them envied!” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy exulted in her proud Dao Fruit.

To thank the Epoch Immortal for helping me with my enlightenment, I specifically prepared a feast for him. He was so moved that he wept profusely, muttering something about “regretting his actions.”

Lu Yang brooded over what he had heard. The Epoch Immortal’s words clearly concealed profundities. But my current realm is too low to comprehend the mysteries hidden within. Then again, if someone says it out bluntly, it will severely diminish the impact.

He committed the Epoch Immortal’s words to memory and resumed studying cultivation techniques.

In addition to the mainstream cultivation techniques, the scripture library also stored cultivation techniques that slightly deviated from those in the market. These were contributed by the senior disciples. Although they couldn’t create new cultivation techniques, making innovative modifications to existing ones wasn’t a problem for them.

For example, Lu Yang was learning the Great Sun Dharma Body Art. By comprehending the sun and sensing the immense power it contained, one could manifest the “Great Sun Dharma Body” that incinerated everything. When the sun was up, the Great Sun Dharma Body would reach its peak, but after the sun set, the Great Sun Dharma Body’s power would wane.

Hence, a senior female disciple adapted it into the Luna Dharma Body Art. By comprehending the moon, one could manifest the “Luna Dharma Body,” which was as gentle as water and possessed remarkable restorative powers.

More importantly, these two cultivation techniques were compatible, allowing seamless transitions between the Great Sun Dharma Body and the Luna Dharma Body during the day and night respectively.

And this was merely the first level, accessible only to Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators. At the second level, one could summon both dharma bodies simultaneously, achieving the 'Shining Sun and Moon' state, thereby doubling their power. At the third level, the two dharma bodies could fuse into one, and the new dharma body “Taiji Transformation Dao” would combine the advantages of both dharma bodies, a balance of offense and defense.

Lu Yang found this cultivation technique extremely terrifying.

On the first floor of the scripture library, he had seen the Sun Observation Art. At the end of the book, it was mentioned that when one reached the Golden Core Stage, they could proceed to the second floor to learn the follow-up cultivation techniques—the Great Sun Dharma Body Art and Luna Dharma Body Art.

At that time, he never anticipated the follow-up cultivation techniques to be so ferocious.

“The senior sister who created this cultivation technique is so impressive! Who is it?”

Lu Yang looked at the author’s name.

Yun Zhi.

He looked up, realizing that he had inadvertently wandered into the legendary “Yun Zhi Section.”
