Who Let Him Cultivate?!-Chapter 799 - 798 Vast Sea Daoist Lord: What did I come to the East Sea for?
Chapter 799: Chapter 798 Vast Sea Daoist Lord: What did I come to the East Sea for?
The people of the East Sea watched as the two immortals disappeared from sight, exhaling deeply.
“They’re gone, they’re gone,” they thought to themselves. The pressure from the Immortal Battle was overwhelming; even the aftermath could have shattered them to pieces.
The divide between mortals and immortals was clear to behold.
“Since the ancient times, this might be the first Immortal Battle to ever occur,” even the Transcendence Tribulation stage elders felt fortunate to have survived such an ordeal, and they couldn’t help but recognize the historical significance of the battle.
What kind of bizarre luck was this? A once-in-300,000-year event happened, and they were the ones to witness it.
Ao Ling secretly felt grateful that Yun Zhi stood on her side. The power that Yun Zhi displayed was the kind of invincibility that could rival figures from ancient times, a level of strength that made her comparable to Immortal Sister Eternity.
Man Gu marveled at the spectacle—traveling alongside Brother Lu and Brother Meng truly opened one’s eyes to remarkable scenes.
True Monarch Ma regretted ever attending the birthday banquet. Or more precisely, when he spotted Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou at the celebration, he should have turned around and fled immediately.
After tens of thousands of years of tranquility in the East Sea, Lu Yang and his companions arrived and flipped the heavens and earth upside down. First, it was the resurrection of Ao Ling, the Dragon Clan Ancestor; then the appearance of the immortals.
“Given how things are now, whether or not I cultivate doesn’t seem to matter much,” True Monarch Ma muttered to himself. He had initially believed he needed to work hard in his cultivation to reach the Transcendence Tribulation stage and become a qualified Protector.
But now, it seemed even those at the Transcendence Tribulation stage were unqualified to be Protectors.
The Old Dragon Emperor, the birthday celebrant, stepped forward and cupped his hands toward the crowd. “Ladies and gentlemen, today’s events were sudden and unexpected. Regrettably, we can no longer host you properly. I ask for your understanding.”
The Dragon Clan truly couldn’t accommodate their guests anymore. After witnessing battles between several Semi-Immortals and two immortals, the Dragon Palace was reduced to ruins. Treasures of gold and silver scattered across the deep trenches of the seabed, and there was no telling how long it would take to rebuild the palace.
However, this didn’t affect the Dragon Clan’s position as the dominant force of the East Sea. With Ao Ling’s return, their standing would only grow stronger.
Many had initially hoped to pay their respects to Ao Ling, but since the Old Dragon Emperor had personally come forth to dismiss them, they figured staying longer would be futile and reluctantly let go of the idea.
Even the aloof Black Feather Venerable, who had been solely there for the entertainment, was dragged away by Clan Leader Xiao.
As the crowd dispersed, only the Dragon Clan, Seek Dao Sect, and Young Master Lu were left on the scene.
“Ancient Ancestor, I didn’t expect you to be a member of the Heavenly Court,” Ao Ya exclaimed excitedly, her admiration for Ao Ling vividly apparent.
This was the number-one Semi-Immortal in battle prowess, the pride of their Dragon Clan.
“Ao Ya pays respects to the Ancient Ancestor and Senior Lu.”
“Allow me to introduce you two. This is my Daoist couple, Vast Sea Daoist Lord Fang Wuya,” Ao Ya said, her informal nature evident. She didn’t care for traditional wedding rituals—since Vast Sea Daoist Lord had undergone Intercourse Cultivation with her, he was her Daoist couple.
Vast Sea Daoist Lord cupped his hands respectfully. “Junior Fang Wuya greets the Dragon Clan Ancestor.”
Though Vast Sea Daoist Lord and Ao Ling were both Semi-Immortals and could technically address each other as Daoists, the current situation placed him firmly in the junior category. Despite this, Fang Wuya internally brimmed with pride.

Meng Jingzhou cast a disdainful glance at Fang Wuya. Ancestor, the grin on your face is so difficult to suppress, yet you claim you envy me for being a Single Body Spiritual Root?
“Wuya, you haven’t fully performed the necessary bow yet,” Ao Ya whispered discreetly to Fang Wuya.
Fang Wuya looked confused. Who else was he supposed to bow to?
Ao Ya gestured toward Young Master Lu with her lips. That man was the Ancient Ancestor’s Senior Brother, and from the perspective of lineage, their superior.
Fang Wuya’s face darkened.
Me, bow to him?
With Ao Ya persistently urging him, Fang Wuya eventually caved under the pressure and adopted a forced smile while bowing. “Junior Fang Wuya greets Young Master Lu.”
Lu Yang felt that he would undoubtedly enjoy favorable times once he returned to Seek Dao Sect.
“Ancient Ancestor, our clan still has two Transcendence Tribulation stage elders. Would you be willing to meet them?” The Old Dragon Emperor cautiously asked, carefully observing Ao Ling’s reaction.
The opportunity to meet Ao Ling was rare. Those two elders had missed out while in hibernation, and the Old Dragon Emperor couldn’t help but feel sorry for them.
“You have additional Transcendence Tribulation stage cultivators? Impressive, seems like you’re doing well in the East Sea,” Ao Ling remarked in mild surprise. Although the Dragon Clan didn’t have any Semi-Immortals, the presence of five Transcendence Tribulation stage cultivators already marked them as a top-tier power.
In Lu Yang’s estimation, only the Great Xia Court had more Transcendence Tribulation stage cultivators compared to the Dragon Clan.
Wait, scratch that—they’d also need to count the Demon Nation now.
With Ao Ling’s consent, the Old Dragon Emperor hurried to the depths of the palace and began waking the two hibernating elders, who had fallen into slumber twenty thousand and thirty thousand years ago respectively. They were among the clan’s most vital reserves.
The Old Dragon Emperor cleared the ruins and entered an underwater chamber, where three crystal formations were arranged. One was empty, previously occupied by Ao Ya.
The other two crystals housed the two dormant human-formed dragons.
The Old Dragon Emperor activated a secret technique, synchronizing with the runes on the crystal surfaces.
Buzz, buzz, buzz—
As the resonance harmonized, the crystals bloomed like flowers, and the two elders slowly awakened.
“Who dares awaken us? Has the Dragon Clan fallen into a dire life-and-death crisis?”
According to their ancestral teachings, they were only to be awakened under circumstances of grave danger threatening the clan’s survival.
The Old Dragon Emperor respectfully explained, “Honored elders, the Dragon Clan is not facing a crisis. There’s simply someone who wishes to meet you, which has prompted your awakening.”
Infuriated, the elders roared, “Absurd! Do you understand our standing?! We are not summoned on mere whims!”
“It’s me,” Ao Ling quietly remarked, her gaze fixed on the two Transcendence Tribulation stage True Dragons.
“Who are you…” The two elders began chastising her instinctively but froze, their expressions turning ashen when they recognized Ao Ling.
“Ao-Ao-Ao-Ao-Ao-Ao Ling, Ancient Ancestor?!”
Honestly, if it weren’t for the latter half of the exclamation, Lu Yang would have thought they were howling.
“Do you have any objections?” Ao Ling asked.
The two elders scrambled out of their crystals, flashing ingratiating smiles. “Ancient Ancestor, it’s an honor to be summoned by you. If anyone has objections, we’ll personally beat them senseless!”
Seeing her descendants so lively, Ao Ling was quite pleased.
The Old Dragon Emperor beamed at the elders. “Honored elders, the Ancient Ancestor merely wished to meet you. There’s no other reason; you may return to your rest.”
The elders glared at the Old Dragon Emperor, thinking, “Who could sleep now, knowing the Ancient Ancestor has awakened?”
“I’ll return to the Heavenly Court for some time. Once I’ve visited my acquaintances, I’ll be back.” Ao Ling didn’t linger long with the Dragon Clan and departed with Young Master Lu.
Vast Sea Daoist Lord reluctantly bid farewell to Ao Ya before departing with the Seek Dao Sect members.
Two groups split up at the Dragon Palace, only to regroup later after leaving it. Lu Yang withdrew his clone.
Ao Ling listened as Immortal Fairy Eternity recounted numerous matters, many of which involved the Seek Dao Sect. She grew curious and desired to visit the sect that Immortal Sister Eternity so highly praised.
A graceful figure returned, prompting Lu Yang to rush forward to pay his respects. “Eldest Senior Sister, you’ve returned. This person…”
Yun Zhi, her tone calm, replied, “Gravely injured. Escaped.”
“Junior Brother and Senior Ao Ling, you two come with me. Explain in detail the person I clashed with.”
She wanted to know the origins of this Yellow Bean.
As the trio’s silhouettes faded into the distance, Vast Sea Daoist Lord looked bewildered.
Reflecting on his East Sea experience, he realized that he had aided Lu Yang’s charade, suffered a strike from an immortal, and somehow ended up as Lu Yang’s junior?
“Wasn’t I supposed to dominate the East Sea?” he muttered incredulously.
