Who Let Him Cultivate?! (WX)-Chapter 770: You Toss, I Toss

“Immortal Fairy, can you discern anything else?” Lu Yang hadn’t expected to encounter the remnant battleground of the Qilin Immortal and the Ember Legacy Dynasty immortal.

“Judging from the combat situation, it seems the Qilin Immortal was at a disadvantage. Most of his moves were defensive... Wait, could he be protecting someone?” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy scrunched up her brows slightly, feeling the fighting style demonstrated by the Qilin Immortal wasn’t as fierce as she remembered.

“Let’s not care about that for now. This mist is very dangerous to you all. Escape first, then we’ll talk.” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy released her spiritual consciousness, enveloping the entire mass of dense mist.

“Which way do we go?”

“This dense mist is constantly shifting position. You are already near its center and are surrounded.”

Lu Yang was startled. “What’s inside the mist?”

“Most likely those who were trapped in the mist before. This place bears traces of the Qilin Immortal activating his Dao Fruit in battle. The residual power of those traces can control those within the mist, ranging from Foundation Establishment to Fusion cultivators. Fortunately, there are no Transcendent Tribulation cultivators; otherwise, we would have to call Lass Yun for help.

“First, run in the direction I tell you.”

“Alright.”

~~~

“Everyone, I have a secret treasure bestowed by my sect. It can point us in the right direction and help us escape,” Lu Yang declared solemnly. Following the Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s instructions, he pointed north. This direction had the fewest enemies and was the easiest to break through.

“This way!”

The group didn’t doubt Lu Yang and followed him, running toward the mist’s edge.

“Also, be prepared for battle. The secret treasure informed me that we are surrounded!”

Just as the words left Lu Yang’s mouth, a water spear shot toward him, fast and accurate.

Bang!

Su Yiren appeared in front of Lu Yang, meeting the water spear with a palm strike. It carried the momentum of raging tides, dispersing the surrounding mist. But soon after, the mist churned and enveloped them once more.

In that fleeting moment that the mist dispersed, the group saw their opponent clearly—a crab over three meters tall, holding up two claws. Its body was decayed, and its back was covered in moss. It was unclear how many years it had been dead.

“It’s a Fusion cultivator from the Tyrant Crab Tribe!” Su Yiren recognized its origin and cultivation level.

It wasn’t just the Tyrant Crab. Countless other seafolk and humans surrounded them, all dead yet still moving.

Li Haoran watched the mist warily, various meticulously refined magical treasures hovering around him. Cold sweat beaded on his forehead. “Next time, we should invite a fellow Daoist from the Corpse Driving Sect for a trip to the East Sea.”

The Tyrant Crab Fusion cultivator suddenly raised its claws and flung them forward. The two claws detached and flew out, aimed straight at Su Yiren’s waist, attempting to slice her in half!

“Spirit Pivot Marrow-Cleansing Mantra!” Su Yiren uttered. Her fair skin contained inexhaustible power as she directly met the giant crab’s attack. Despite the crab shell being renowned for its defense, it was dented by her two punches.

Those long-dead seafolk and humans followed the Tyrant Crab Fusion cultivator’s lead in the assault. They came in sundry aggressive forms: a leaping blue whale, a soaring storm petrel demon king, and a towering thousand-year-old turtle demon... Among them were aged monsters and once-peerless geniuses. However, their eras were too distant. Xiao Xinghai had only heard their names and couldn’t match them to their appearances.

“Form the array!” Lu Yang yelled.

The five once again executed the Five-Elements Combat Tactic, interlinking their spirit energy, allowing their combat power to multiply several times over.

“One Sword Into Ten Thousand Swords!” Lu Yang summoned the Sword-Cleansing Pond. Countless Sword-Cleansing Ponds filled the sky, descending like meteors. Be it seafolk or human, all below the Divine Transfiguration Stage were smashed into pulp. Even Divine Transfiguration cultivators were severely injured, their combat power sharply reduced.

“Heaven-Shaking Six Forms!” Meng Jingzhou performed Three Heads Six Arms. His body appeared to be cast from bronze and iron, and his muscles were like intertwined Qiu-Dragons. His fists stirred abounding, majestic momentum, each punch seemingly capable of shaking heaven and earth.

Man Gu swung his ten-thousand-jin heavy hammer, facing a blue whale head-on. Each collision caused violent sea waves, creating enormous whirlpools.

“Thousand Mechanisms Transformation!” Nine different types of magical treasures materialized around Li Haoran: a jade gourd, a precious cauldron, a small hammer, a wooden sword... The nine treasures ignited with true fire, forming a small array that blocked attacks from all sides.

“Metamorphic Immortal Physique!” Faced with jiangshi, the illusions Tao Yaoye was adept at were of little use. She resolutely decided to activate her Metamorphic Immortal Physique. She was shrouded in a milky-white light that transformed into pure white feathers, and her aura surged abruptly.

Basic Divine Transfiguration Stage!

She had borrowed power from her future self, temporarily reaching the Basic Divine Transfiguration Stage. The cost was that her future self at the Basic Divine Transfiguration Stage would regress to the Intermediate Nascent Soul Stage at one point.

Tao Yaoye’s spirit energy grew exponentially like a breached floodgate. Even the four others within the array felt an unending stream of power.

Watching Lu Yang and the others display their mighty abilities, Xiao Xinghai was full of envy.

“Kunpeng Nine Transformations! Dragon Transformation Mantra!” Xiao Xinghai simultaneously performed two mighty abilities, transforming into a golden dragon that was a hundred zhang long and had four claws. The golden dragon sprouted a pair of golden wings, and each flap could stir boundless hurricanes.

“Roar!” Xiao Xinghai clashed with the thousand-year-old turtle demon valiantly. His strong dragon claws carved three deep gashes into the turtle’s shell.

This turtle demon was a famous Divine Transfiguration old devil in the East Sea a thousand years ago. Although it was of mixed blood, it had once defeated a Xuanwu Tribe member of the same level, eliciting a huge uproar at the time.

Meng Jingzhou glanced up at Xiao Xinghai in surprise. This kid’s cultivation does have some substance.

“Don’t get entangled with them. Keep running!” Lu Yang was deeply aware that wasting time here would only lead to their deaths. According to the Everlasting Immortal Fairy, more Fusion cultivators were continuously converging toward them.

Lu Yang wielded the Qingfeng Sword and Mingyue swords, using sword qi to cleave a path, though it was quickly swallowed by the mist again. Sitting in the Sword-Cleansing Pond, he charged recklessly. “Run this way!”

The group fought their way out through a path of blood.

As they ran, Lu Yang inquired with the Everlasting Immortal Fairy. “Doesn’t the Qilin Immortal have the Survival of the Fittest Dao Fruit? How does he have the means to control others?”

“You forgot. Lianyi’s Law of the Jungle Incipient Dao Fruit can control others, and the superior version of that is the Survival of the Fittest Dao Fruit. A higher Dao Fruit possesses all the abilities of its lower Incipient Dao Fruits.

“However, the relationship between the Everlasting Dao Fruit and the Longevity Incipient Dao Fruit doesn’t work like that.

“...The great array has shifted position again. There are quite distinct immortal traces ahead. Those immortal traces encompass fairly dense law comprehensions. Never mind you all, even a Transcendent Tribulation cultivator can’t withstand such information overload at a glance and would go insane. That’s how people went mad before. Run east!”

The remnant immortal battleground was riddled with lethal dangers. Few who strayed into it managed to escape. Fortunately, the Everlasting Immortal Fairy was here to assist, pointing out a clear path for Lu Yang.

The bloodstained group ran out of the mist, escaping with their lives. They had endured three bloody battles along the way. Although they were injured, they suffered only minor wounds.

“This immortal has already marked that remnant site. After your group settles down, Second-in-Command, you can return here. We’ll study this place carefully.” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy had long tossed Yun Zhi’s warnings to the back of her mind.

“Alright.”

Coincidentally, Lu Yang had also tossed them.
