Who Let Him Cultivate?! (WX)-Chapter 791: A Nascent Soul Old Monster Defies A Half-Immortal

Chapter 791: A Nascent Soul Old Monster Defies A Half-Immortal

“Old Ancestor, help me out.” Lu Yang stealthily transmitted an auditory message to the Vast Sea Daoist Lord.

Everyone’s gaze converged on Ao Ling and the Three Mountains Daoist Priest, so no one noticed this Nascent Soul old monster here.

The Vast Sea Daoist Lord had learned about the Heavenly Court from Yun Zhi. “Since I said I’d protect you once, you can act as you please. I’ll be your backup.”

Lu Yang requested the Vast Sea Daoist Lord to open a portal to teleport him away secretly.

Upon reaching his destination, Lu Yang used the Tree-Planting Mantra to create a clone and made it wear a mask, preparing to make an appearance as Young Creed Leader Lu.

Back then, the Dijiang Tribe’s Transcendent Tribulation cultivator had given him this monk when he impersonated Young Creed Leader Lu. Without a half-immortal with the Insight Incipient Dao Fruit, no one could see through the identity beneath the mask.

~~~

An ethereal voice resounded throughout the Dragon Palace.

“Heh, a mere half-immortal dares to provoke the Four Regents of the Heavenly Court? Do you really think our Heavenly Court can be trifled with?”

Under the Vast Sea Daoist Lord’s assistance, Lu Yang’s voice had passed through several spatial transfers before echoing in the Dragon Palace. This was a half-immortal technique. The voice was also processed, preventing anyone from detecting its source.

“The Heavenly Court!”

“It’s someone from the Heavenly Court!”

Humans and seafolk alike were flabbergasted and grew restless. They hadn’t expected someone from the Heavenly Court to come so soon after Ao Ling had awakened. What reaction speed! They must have left some contingency on the Dragon Ancient Ancestor, detectable once she awakens.

Accompanied by the opening of a spatial rift, a figure emerged from the other side.

It was none other than Young Creed Leader Lu, who had been away from the public eye for a long time.

A sword hung at Young Creed Leader Lu’s waist, and his smile was as gentle as a spring breeze, his demeanor as elegant as ever. He cupped his fists toward the figure behind the door. “Many thanks for your assistance, Junior Uncle. You need not accompany me further.”

Then the door closed, with no guardian dispatched, as if Young Creed Leader Lu’s safety was not a concern... Or perhaps, it was a display of absolute confidence in Young Creed Leader Lu.

“Penglai Island Lord, Three Mountains Daoist Priest?” The corners of Young Creed Leader Lu’s mouth curved into a smile, though it carried a hint of coldness.

He narrowed his eyes. “It’s merely an Incipient Dao Fruit condensed from faith power, yet you have the audacity to shout and clamor here. Why trouble my junior sister to deal with a vermin like you? I can handle it on her behalf.” As he spoke, he deliberately glanced in a certain direction.

The Three Mountains Daoist Priest’s face darkened. The legendary Heavenly Court has two immortals presiding over it—Dou Heavenly Sovereign and Creed Leader Yun. I’m absolutely no match for them.

But I am a dignified half-immortal! So what if the other party is Young Creed Leader Lu? He’s only at the Nascent Soul Stage, yet he has the nerve to talk big and claim he could deal with me?

The Three Mountains Daoist Priest was so angry that he burst out laughing. “In that case, I should indeed seek to learn about the ancient Heavenly Court’s methods—” Before the Three Mountains Daoist Priest could finish, Young Creed Leader Lu pressed his palms together and gave the Three Mountains Daoist Priest a sincere bow.

In an instant, the Three Mountains Daoist Priest’s face turned deathly pale, and a mouthful of heart’s blood surged to his throat. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Cough! The Three Mountains Daoist Priest directly vomited a gout of old blood, staining the nearby sea waters crimson.

He staggered back two steps. The look he gave Lu Yang was no longer one of scorn or rage, but of terror.

A Nascent Soul cultivator bowed, and a half-immortal spat blood!

Witnessing this, the crowd was flabbergasted. This overturned all cultivation theories. “What technique is this?!”

Even the Vast Sea Daoist Lord wore a peculiar expression. What kind of technique is this, making someone spit blood with a bow?

~~~

“How is this possible? A Nascent Soul cultivator could make a half-immortal vomit blood? How did he do it?”

“The fact is right before your eyes. Do you still not believe it?”

“Perhaps the ancient Heavenly Court has another expert here.”

“No, there should be another reason. I think I’ve seen records about this somewhere before...

“I remember! I recall reading it in an ancient text from the Great Qian era. Cultivators who cultivate with faith power most fear encountering opponents whose fate profile is superior to their own.”

That person mumbled to himself excitedly, speaking rapidly. “That’s it! The Heavenly Court ruled antiquity. Young Creed Leader Lu is the future leader of the Heavenly Court and has taken an immortal as his shifu. His fate profile naturally far surpasses the Three Mountains Daoist Priest’s!”

“Young Creed Leader Lu is so terrifying!”

“No, what’s truly terrifying is the Heavenly Court!”

Everyone discussed in hushed tones, growing increasingly alarmed as they gradually approached the truth.

~~~

Ao Ling cupped her fists and bowed to Young Creed Leader Lu. “Senior Brother Lu, there was no need for you to intervene. Your junior sister could have dealt with him.”

Young Creed Leader Lu returned the salute, his genuine smile as warm as a spring breeze. “Junior Sister Little Ling, it’s been three hundred thousand years since we last met. Has everything been well?”

“Thank you for your concern, Senior Brother Lu. Everything is well. It’s just that after slumbering so long, I didn’t expect the world to have forgotten the Heavenly Court and the Underworld.”

~~~

“What is the Underworld?”

The crowd noted the other term that Ao Ling mentioned.

“Never heard of it.”

~~~

“The river of time is long and can erase the memories of all beings. When I first awoke, I also didn’t expect that the Heavenly Court, which once ruled for eons, would have faded from fame.”

Young Creed Leader Lu appeared deeply rueful and shook his head with a wry smile. “The mark left by Shifu was triggered. I thought something had gone wrong there. I didn’t expect you to have truly awakened. My original plan was to awaken you in another ten years. I never thought Lu Yang would beat me to it.

“Never mind. This is an internal matter of your Dragon Tribe after all. It’s not my place to interfere.

“Speaking of which, Lu Yang and I are quite fated. We once sparred and actually fought to a draw.”

“A draw?” Ao Ling was astounded. “Senior Brother, your talent was even praised by Shifu and the Creed Leader, who said your future could rival theirs. Is Lu Yang actually that strong?”

~~~

“Young Creed Leader Lu is the Dragon Ancient Ancestor’s senior brother?”

The crowd remembered that Jiang Lianyi had also addressed Young Creed Leader Lu as “senior brother.”

To think this Young Creed Leader Lu is actually the senior brother of both the Dragon and Phoenix ancient ancestors!

Just this fact alone means he could roam the ancient world unimpeded!

Young Creed Leader Lu spotted the Three Mountains Daoist Priest glaring fixedly at him. The latter was extremely nervous, his muscles tensed, as if he was ready to flee at the slightest sign of trouble.

Young Creed Leader Lu chuckled. “Relax. The matter between you and Junior Sister Little Ling has nothing to do with the Heavenly Court. If I meddle further, I’m afraid Junior Sister Little Ling will get angry with me.

“I came here simply to check on Junior Sister Little Ling’s condition. Since she is fine, I can rest assured. Whether you defeat Little Ling or she defeats you, the Heavenly Court will not intervene. My promise represents the Heavenly Court’s stance.” With that said, Young Creed Leader Lu walked to the side.

Just when everyone thought Young Creed Leader Lu was going to observe from the sidelines, he walked up to Lu Yang.

“Sect Leader Lu, it’s been a long time. I see your cultivation has advanced. Why don’t you and I spar?”

Lu Yang was taken aback. He was sitting here peacefully and avoiding the spotlight, yet the other party had come to him.

Though he didn’t go looking for trouble, he wasn’t afraid of trouble either. He turned to seek the Vast Sea Daoist Lord’s opinion with a glance.

The Vast Sea Daoist Lord huffed and puffed, almost slamming the table. “Why do you have to ask me? You should let him properly understand the strength of our Dao-Seeking Sect’s prodigy, of course!”

Having obtained the Vast Sea Daoist Lord’s consent, Lu Yang heaved a sigh of relief that there were no qualms about him acting boldly.

Nearby, Meng Jingzhou watched coldly as the two people staged an act for three characters, regretting that he hadn’t thought of doing something similar!
