Who Let Him Cultivate?!

Originally, he was wondering if the Immortal Eternity had successfully possessed Lu Yang, and all his previous actions were just an act.

Now it seemed that the Immortal Eternity was probably finished as well.

“So, you, Meng Jingzhou, and Man Gu are all from the Seek Dao Sect!” The master was an intelligent person and quickly figured out what had happened.

It was not him who had sent Lu Yang and the others to infiltrate the Seek Dao Sect. Instead, it was the Seek Dao Sect that had sent Lu Yang and the others to infiltrate the Eternity Sect!

The despicable Seek Dao Sect!

He glared at Lu Yang intently. As a Righteous Path, they disguised themselves as Demon Path, and their words and actions were flawless.

What deep scheming!

Ming Ge waved his hand, signaling for the Master to be taken away.

“Thanks to Yun Zhi for providing the intelligence for this operation. Otherwise, we wouldn’t know when we could finally capture the Eternity Sect. After I return, I will propose to the monarch to reward Yun Zhi.”

“This was a trifling matter. It was you who bore the brunt of the operation. I didn’t contribute much, so please forget about the reward.” Yun Zhi spoke indifferently.

She then added, “There’s no need to report to Emperor Xia either. I’ll go see him later.”

Seeing Yun Zhi’s resolute attitude, Ming Ge didn’t insist. He bid everyone farewell, “Now is the time to act swiftly and capture the entire sect. We must strive to locate the branches as soon as possible and try to catch all members of the Eternity Sect. Time is of the essence. If the branch members have time to react, that would be bad. I’ll take my leave first!”

After Ming Ge hurriedly said these words, he left to continue dealing with the Eternity Sect, Yun Zhi didn’t say much else.

Yun Zhi took out the Immortal Eternity again, which made him quite nervous, thinking that Yun Zhi was going back on her word.

“You’re an important witness. Follow me to meet Emperor Xia and the leaders of the other four Great Immortal Sects.”

The easiest way to explain the situation of the Eternity Sect is to take the Immortal Eternity along.

Immortal Eternity heaved a sigh of relief. So, it wasn’t a case of refining him into a magic artifact.

He had just heard Lu Yang mention in the spiritual space that the Seek Dao Sect had a tradition of refining powerful souls into magic artifacts.

This didn’t sound like the Righteous Path at all.

The Immortal Eternity began to doubt the reliability of his followers’ memories. Wasn’t it said that the Five Great Immortal Sects were united in defending the Righteous Path?

“You, Meng Jingzhou, and Man Gu should go back first. Dai Bufan is waiting for you outside.” Yun Zhi said this and then carried off the Immortal Eternity as if he was no more than a chick.

Lu Yang, Meng Jingzhou, and Man Gu met up. Meng Jingzhou said with a giddy giggle, “Finally, we’ve dealt with the Eternity Sect. This is another big contribution.”

Man Gu hesitated before saying, “Did we act too quickly? We just joined the Eternity Sect less than two months ago, and now it’s already been eradicated by us.”

The Eternity Sect has been around for fourteen thousand years. It’s a huge disaster. How is it that when Brother Lu and Brother Meng joined, the Eternity Sect was taken down all at once?

Even if we are defending the Righteous Path, isn’t this efficiency a bit too high?

Lu Yang said in a serious tone, “Man Gu, you need to understand one thing. Was it us who destroyed the Eternity Sect? No, of course not!”

“Everything that happened today is due to the Eternity Sect’s own evil deeds. We’ve only made minor contributions.”

Meng Jingzhou nodded vigorously. The Eternity Sect should never have recruited them. What did that have to do with them?

Man Gu suddenly understood, “I see.”

The three of them chatted and laughed as they left the sect’s headquarters. As expected, Dai Bufan was waiting for them outside.

“You guys are out? Well done!” Dai Bufan spoke cheerfully, giving each of them a pat on the shoulder. He was clearly very pleased.

With one less demonic sect around, it was equivalent to having one less major threat. This would undoubtedly make his life a lot easier.

Dai Bufan casually picked a leaf from a tree. Through some unknown means, the leaf grew to the size of a small boat.

“Get in.”

Using the green leaf as a vessel, Dai Bufan brought the three of them back to the Seek Dao Sect.

Lu Yang looked down tremulously, feeling as though he might fall at any moment. Seeing this, Dai Bufan laughed heartily: “Lu Yang, so you’re afraid of heights. How will you be a swordsman with this?”

…

Back at the Task Hall, Dai Bufan and the trio calculated their rewards for this mission.

“Eldest Senior Sister told me before she left that although the maximum reward points for a Foundation Establishment Stage mission is one thousand, in this case, your contributions in eradicating the Eternity Sect are significant. Each of you will receive an exceptional reward.”

“Meng Jingzhou and Man Gu, you two will receive two thousand contribution points each.”

“Lu Yang, you made the greatest contribution in the competition against the Eternity Sect, so you will receive two thousand five hundred contribution points.”

With a considerable number of contribution points from last time, and now gaining these many, the three were elated.

At the Foundation Establishment Stage, they had the most contribution points among all!

“Elder Brother Dai, can this sword be exchanged for contribution points?”

Lu Yang pulled out a demonic sword and asked Dai Bufan to appraise it.

Dai Bufan examined the demonic sword, lightly flicked it to gauge its resonance, and opined, “It’s indeed a rare and excellent sword. You sure you don’t want to keep it for yourself?”

“Oh, right, you have the Green Peak Sword given by Eldest Senior Sister; you won’t need this demonic sword.”

“The material of this sword is good, but the refining method is poor. Also, the excessive killings have deposited karmic sin and contaminated blood on it, ruining the original properties of the material. I’ll value it at one thousand seven hundred contribution points.”

After tallying up their respective contribution points, they decided to call it a day. The trio was unimaginably exhausted mentally and physically from the excursion.

“Let’s go back and get some sleep. We can exchange the rewards tomorrow,” Meng Jingzhou suggested, yawning excessively and almost unable to keep his eyes open.

Man Gu was similarly fatigued, almost collapsing and falling asleep on the spot.

Lu Yang wasn’t in great shape either. The battles all happened in the Spiritual Space, taking a huge toll on his mental strength.

However, his lack of focus now had another reason.

“Why don’t I have any contribution points! It must be because that Yun Zhi was scared I would become Sect Leader again!”

“Why don’t I have any congratulatory points! It must be because that Yun Zhi was scared I would become Sect Leader again!”

While Fairy Eternity was clamoring in the Spiritual Space,

“Fairy, can you please be quiet? I’m going to sleep now,” Lu Yang mumbled sleepily after reaching his Abode.

Fairy Eternity obediently stayed quiet in the Spiritual Space, not uttering a word.

…

After the three left, Dai Bufan held the demonic sword, contemplating what to do with it.

“Let it be. I’ll put it in the storage for now and consult Fifth Elder later.”

Dai Bufan casually held the demonic sword, putting it into the corner of the storage room.

The storage room was dark, barely showing various magic artifacts. The demonic sword, emanating an ominous aura, was conspicuous.

No matter where the demonic sword was, it was supremely domineering, flashing a dark red glow, proclaiming itself the boss of the storage room and threatening to sever anyone who disobeyed!

A precious lamp hovered in the air, emanating the aura of a superior magic artifact, enveloping the demonic sword.

Then came the Jade Ruyi, shedding a green light, encapsulating the demonic sword.

A paper fan opened with a swish, gently fanning the air.

A sickle, writing brush, gourd, chessboard… various magic artifacts seemed to come alive, surrounding the demonic sword.

The demonic sword trembled, voluntarily retracting its ominous aura, appearing harmless.

Where is this place? It’s so scary.
