Who Let Him Cultivate?! (WX)-Chapter 635: Meng Jingzhou’s New Move

A simple mind was not without its advantages. Simple-minded individuals could withstand mental attacks effectively.

Lu Yang seriously doubted whether his own mental attacks could harm Man Gu when the latter was bolstered by his ancestor.

The average person resisted mental attacks through direct confrontation, contesting whose mental power was stronger and who could utilize it better. However, those with simple minds were different. They were like a piece of cotton, able to absorb and cushion the impact of a mental assault.

While Man Gu’s nascent soul sounded impressive based on his description, its practical application had a major flaw—Man Gu could not recognize all his ancestors. This wasn’t Man Gu’s fault. Given the cultural level of the Ancient Barbarian Tribe, extremely few portraits had been passed down. The existing portraits were usually the work of painting cultivators who had passed by.

Hence, Man Gu could remember the characteristics of all his ancestors, but he couldn’t match them to their specific appearances. This made using his nascent soul highly unpredictable.

“The true name of this ancestor has been lost to time, but the stories of his deeds were passed down. It is said that although this ancestor had a simple mind, he also had great luck. Even if his actions took him in the complete opposite direction of his goal, he would still manage to reach it. Furthermore, this ancestor once touched upon the Dao of Life. It was a pity that he was interrupted just as he was about to achieve enlightenment.” Man Gu’s eyes shone with reverence. This was one of the most ancient of the Ancient Barbarians, one who had followed an ancient immortal; his status within the tribe spoke for itself.

“Immortal Fairy, do you recognize the ancestor Man Gu is worshipping?” Lu Yang eyed the Everlasting Immortal Fairy skeptically, suspecting that this prematurely aged nascent soul ancestor was one of her first victims.

“Man Ergou,[1] right? I know him well. This kid was very earnest about my lectures, always asking questions after class, like why demons need to wear clothes after taking human form if they don’t do so in their true forms. His attitude toward learning was far better than the other Barbarians.

“It’s just that his innate intellectual talent was lacking; he could never reach heights like mine.” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy shook her head regretfully. He had been a highly promising student, but his natural aptitude was insufficient, and not even diligence could fully compensate for it.

Lu Yang thought, Just as I suspected, another victim.

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy continued, “This kid was always getting lost. Once, he wanted to return to the Barbarian Tribe, but he ended up going in the opposite direction. He flew a complete circle around the North Star before finally making it back, and he was even late for class.

“He remembered me mentioning in class that cultivators should have a pioneering spirit and a drive for exploration. Thus, he was bent on drinking a few mouthfuls of water from the Mother-Child River to see if he could get pregnant. Qing He was beside him and stopped him, escorting him back to the tribe.

“Another time, he stumbled into a pond where a female cultivator was bathing and inadvertently saw her. The female cultivator screamed and insisted that Ergou compensate her, refusing to let it go. Then, two male cultivators jumped out, saying something like, ‘If you don’t give us a proper explanation today, this matter won’t be over.’

“How could Ergou have encountered a situation like that before? He was at a loss for what to do. Fortunately, he remembered my teachings: act with fairness, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, and correcting one’s mistakes is a great virtue.”

“What happened after that?”

“After that, he said, ‘I saw your body, so it’s only fair if you see mine. This way, it’ll be fair. Then, he started taking his clothes off.

“Those three people also didn’t know what was good for them. Seeing that Er Gou wasn’t offering spirit stones, they charged toward him at once to rob him. In the end, they still couldn’t beat Ergou.”

Lu Yang, “...”

This Ancient Barbarian ancestor is truly fearless and reckless like a tiger.

“Why is everyone here? Having a meal gathering without inviting me?” Meng Jingzhou swaggered into the barbeque shop as casually as if he was returning home.

He was passing by the barbeque shop and had a serious craving. As soon as he entered, he spotted Lu Yang and the others as well as Man Gu’s nascent soul, which shocked him. “Oh man! Junior Brother Man, this nascent soul of yours is very mature-looking, eh?”

And it also doesn’t look like you. Meng Jingzhou struggled to swallow the last few words, keeping them to himself.

Man Gu retracted his nascent soul and ate the tribute skewers on behalf of his ancestor before explaining the origin of his nascent soul.

Meng Jingzhou clicked his tongue in amazement as he listened. “Borrowing your ancestors’ power—as expected of the last Ancient Barbarian. Blessed by your bloodline, you have a very distinctive nascent soul. Junior Brother Man, I reckon you’ll surpass Lu Yang in no time and become the world’s number two Nascent Soul cultivator.”

Lu Yang shot a glance at Meng Jingzhou. “And who is the world’s number one Nascent Soul cultivator?”

Meng Jingzhou pointed at himself, speaking matter-of-factly. “Me, of course.”

“Aren’t you at the Two Infants Stage? Why are you pretending to be a Nascent Soul cultivator?”

Meng Jingzhou flared with anger. Lu Yang, you brat really don’t know how to speak properly. If the Phoenix Ancestor weren’t here, I’d definitely challenge you to show who’s better.

Although Lu Yang was also at the Two Infants Stage, no one knew about it, allowing him to masquerade as a Nascent Soul cultivator as he pleased.

“Two Infants Stage?” Man Gu rummaged through his memory of cultivation knowledge but couldn’t find a corresponding cultivation realm.

“Old Meng is a trailblazer. He has two nascent souls.”

“Two nascent souls?!” This time, it was Man Gu’s turn to be shocked. He had never heard of it, and neither had he read about any cultivator in history possessing dual nascent souls.

Becoming a trailblazer and creating a precedent... This is Brother Meng’s power!

Man Gu had been learning from Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou for two years, but until now, he still felt that the sea of knowledge was boundless. The depths and ideas of my two senior brothers are realms I can never dream of reaching in my entire life.

One should learn for as long as they live.

Just as Meng Jingzhou was about to flare up again and assert his position, Lu Yang seized the chance to cut off that line of thought. “Two months have passed; your cultivation realm should be stable now. What’s different about having two nascent souls?”

Sure enough, the moment the topic shifted to cultivation, Meng Jingzhou’s attention was diverted, and he grinned. “A huge gain. Let me demonstrate for you.” He chuckled smugly and activated his two nascent souls.

Two plump and fair-skinned babies, looking exactly like a younger version of Meng Jingzhou, sat on his shoulders.

“Merge!” Meng Jingzhou commanded softly.

The boundaries between the two nascent souls and himself blurred, and they gradually fused into one entity. Large bumps swelled on Meng Jingzhou’s neck, and two more appeared under each of his armpits.

“Ha!” Meng Jingzhou exerted force, and the bumps on his neck transformed into two additional heads, while four extra arms sprouted from under his armpits. “I just learned it, so I’m still not very proficient. Hehe, what do you think?”

“Dang, Three Heads Six Arms?!” Lu Yang was genuinely astonished. This is a move all physique cultivators dream of mastering. Based on what I know, among the Fusion cultivators, only a few like Third Elder know this move. Aside from them, only Transcendent Tribulation cultivators can perform this move. And they had guidance from predecessors.

On the other hand, Meng Jingzhou had learned it through self-study, equivalent to being the creator. His talent and comprehension are so high, second only to mine.

Isn’t this much more remarkable than my Unbeatable Nascent Soul?

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy patted her chest reassuringly. “If you can defeat the Unbeatable Nascent Soul, I guarantee it will prove more powerful in a fight than his Three Heads Six Arms.”

Jiang Lianyi was also slightly stunned. Is this the talent exchanged from lifelong singlehood?

The human race is indeed formidable. No wonder only one of the ancient immortals was a demon. None of the demon prodigies at the kingdom-founding ceremony possessed this kind of talent.

Meng Jingzhou noticed Lu Yang’s expression and secretly brimmed with smug satisfaction.

Man Gu felt that Meng Jingzhou was truly amazing and praised him sincerely from the bottom of his heart. “Twins really are built different.”

1. “Er Gou” translates to something like “second dog.” ☜
