Who Let Him Cultivate?!

The spiritual essence Lu Yang possessed was naturally higher than others at the same level, thanks to consuming tofu. After forming a golden core, his spiritual essence saw a tremendous change.

“At the very least, my spiritual essence has increased tenfold. The rate at which I absorb external spiritual energy has also increased. If I don’t use powerful moves like ‘Decapitation Word Technique’ or ‘Destruction Word Technique’, I can balance the spiritual essence I use and absorb during regular battles, ultimately saving money on Great Recovery Pills.”

During the fight with Herbal Celestial Grass, he swallowed Great Recovery Pills as if they were free, leaving him with only a few pathetic ones. It pained him to even think about it.

“In addition to this, my physical strength, speed, and reaction have exceeded the late stage of Foundation Establishment. I can now confidently challenge body cultivators of my level!” Lu Yang said, brimming with self-confidence.

His physical condition had always been his weak spot – he never stood a chance against body cultivators like Meng Jingzhou, let alone against Confucian cultivators like Man Gu.

Now, he had finally managed to catch up and fill this gap.

Lu Yang was very proud. After all, he had the same type of Golden Core as an Immortal, which ranked second only to the Harem Golden Core in the First-Grade Golden Cores!

The Harem Golden Core was formed by concentrating the strength of a harem onto one person, which is something borrowed, and isn’t a single individual’s strength.

In the strictest sense, the strength of the Harem Golden Core is the combined strength of a group. If singled out, it would be weaker than the Invincible Elixir.

In the truest sense, his Invincible Elixir was the number one Golden Core!

According to Fairy Eternity, it was even more powerful than the Golden Core of Eldest Senior Sister!

Lu Yang felt invincible like he could defeat anyone.

It could be described as him ‘floating’.

“My Spiritual Sense has also increased.”

The most evident change was Lu Yang’s spiritual space. If it was a single room in a hotel before, now it was equivalent to a spacious house with four bedrooms, two living rooms, and two bathrooms!

Fairy Eternity was the first to notice the change in the spiritual space, and she adapted – enlarging the area of her bed three times before comfortably going to sleep.

Lu Yang released his Spiritual Sense. The entire ship was now within his Spiritual Sense range, which was something impossible before.

Lu Yang noticed something wrong with the flying ship’s Suspension Formation. The accompanying Array Repair Master tinkered with it for ages, ultimately ruining the Suspension Formation. Worried about getting caught and losing his annual bonus, the Array Repair Master directly flew to the bottom of the ship, lifting the entire ship to fly.

“…Did I just witness something extraordinary?”

“The distance and number of Clones I can control should have also increased, I just don’t know by how much,” he pondered.

It wouldn’t be good to create a clone on the ship using a flowerpot, as it would look bad.

“I’ll test it when I get back.”

“I wonder what other functions my Golden Core has,” Lu Yang wondered. He had spent half the day studying it but didn’t understand anything.

“I’ll wait until Fairy Eternity wakes up and ask her directly.”

The journey of the flying ship was eventful yet without mishap. At the next stop, the Array Repair Master asked for help, and the Suspension Formation was finally fixed before takeoff.

Several major cities later, the flying ship landed in front of the Seek Dao Sect’s gate, and Lu Yang stepped off.

Suddenly, Lu Yang realized his Dantian was empty with no trace of his Golden Core. He didn’t know when that had happened.

“Where’s my Golden Core?”

Just as Lu Yang was about to enter his Spiritual Space to question Fairy Eternity, he saw her lying on the bed, holding the Invincible Elixir, sleeping sweetly.

Lu Yang was helpless and woke Fairy Eternity: “Fairy, could you please not hold my Golden Core while sleeping? I thought I had lost my Golden Core.”

She quickly came up with an excuse using her vast knowledge: “You probably don’t know about this, do you know about the Ancient Martial Way?”

Fairy Eternity gently pushed the Invincible Elixir.

Lu Yang nodded: “I remember it to be a type of martial way from the ancient times, right?”

“Yes, this type of martial way doesn’t use spiritual energy but merely refines the physical body. Once it is cultivated to the extreme, the body can rival the Nascent Soul Stage!”

“Ancient Martial Arts can be categorized into Explicit Power, Hidden Power, Converted Power, and Holding Elixir.”

“So?”

“So now that I am holding your Golden Core, it means you have entered the Holding Elixir realm.”

Lu Yang: “…”

Fairy Eternity had a similar habit to Lu Yang, she loved to hold things while sleeping. The invincible elixir, which was an object she hadn’t seen for a long time, made her feel more attached. However, she couldn’t say this out loud because it would damage her dignity as an immortal.

“Fairy, do you believe that our intelligence is on the same level?”

“How can you be as smart as this Fairy?”

“Fairy, you ‘ve been sleeping for two days now.” Lu Yang hinted at Fairy Eternity, asking her to sleep less.

“What do you know? I am sleeping to recover my strength. If I don’t recover my strength, how will I defeat that little girl Yun Zhi?”

“If it was in ancient times, I would die and resurrect on the spot, and the power that disappeared would be regained by me.”

“Now I have been dead for more than 300,000 years, and the strength in my body at the time of death has long disappeared without a trace. I can only rely on sleep to slowly recover strength.”

“So how much have you recovered now?”

“It feels like I have recovered about 10% – 20%. If there is no other way to speed up, I can fully recover after sleeping for another hundred or so years.” She said it lightly, but for Fairy Eternity, who was newly sixteen years old, a hundred and so years was just a moment in time.

“How does it feel to have the Invincible Elixir? Don’t you feel like you are invincible? The Invincible Elixir will make you indomitable and victorious. It is the first class Golden Core that this fairy is proud of!” Fairy Eternity patted Lu Yang’s shoulder as if she saw herself in him rising high and brightening an era.

“So, what should I do exactly?”

Fairy Eternity giggled: “When I first produced the Invincible Elixir, I put a lot of effort into researching what this Golden Core can do. Now with me here, you can skip the research stage and directly know the function of the Invincible Elixir.”

“Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you be undefeated in all battles. The first function of the Invincible Elixir is to see the opponent’s flaws, so that you can formulate tactics against the opponent’s weaknesses during the battle, thus, won’t victory be certain?”

“When I was in the Golden Core Stage, I defeated Yingtian Immortal and Qilin Immortal thanks to this function!”

Lu Yang’s heart was pounding, the Invincible Elixir was worthy of being a pill of the immortals, and it was indeed powerful.

“Come on, I’ll teach you how to use it.”

“Alright!”

The method of using the Invincible Elixir wasn’t complicated, but Lu Yang didn’t manage to find the way on his own. With Fairy Eternity as a guide, Lu Yang easily mastered the use of the Invincible Elixir.

“Try it on somebody.”

As per Fairy Eternity’s instructions, Lu Yang set his sights on a Senior Brother. He remembered this Senior Brother; he had joined the line to beat him at the end of the Five Elements Sect exchange meeting.

Indeed, he could not beat him in the past, carrying the black pot on behalf of Fairy Eternity. Now that he had obtained the Invincible Elixir, he must wash away his past shame and prove his strength.

The Invincible Elixir slowly spun, analyzing the Senior Brother’s weaknesses. Soon, a line of text appeared in front of Lu Yang.

“You can’t defeat him, choose someone else.”
