Who Let Him Cultivate?! (WX)-Chapter 321: The Everlasting Immortal Fairy Suppresses the Little Herb Kings
Chapter 321: The Everlasting Immortal Fairy Suppresses the Little Herb Kings
Under the night sky, Grandpa Ba guarded the herb garden in the Dao-Seeking Sect as usual. Splitting off a clone, he sat across from himself and played a game of chess.
“Grandpa Ba.” A familiar voice streamed into his ears.
“Little Lu? It’s so late. What brings you to the herb garden?”
Cultivators’ activities weren’t bound by day or night, but most disciples rarely visited the herb garden at night.
Lu Yang looked somewhat embarrassed. “I was wondering, do you have any particularly precious...”
“Medicinal herbs?”
“Mud.”
“What do you need mud for?”
“To eat.”
Grandpa Ba, “...”
I’ve long heard about Yun Zhi being out of touch with worldly affairs and often unintentionally tormenting people. Has she finally tormented Lu Yang to this point?
“No, I’ve been practicing a cultivation technique that allows me to eat dirt, so I wanted to find some soil to see what it tastes like.”
Grandpa Ba rubbed his chin as he sized up Lu Yang. “Young fellow, I remember the last time you came to the herb garden, you had mastered the Shrinking Earth technique. This time, you come to the herb garden, and you have learned to eat dirt. Did you inherit some earthworm legacy?”
Shrinking Earth and eating dirt—these are the specialties of the Silver-Ringed Monarch Earthworm.
Lu Yang stressed seriously, “This is an ancient legacy.”
“Ancient earthworm?”
Grandpa Ba didn’t dig deeper into the matter. Nothing is too strange for disciples of the Dao-Seeking Sect; this was the case for me too. “Never mind. It’s not the first time you’ve come to the herb garden. One earthworm couple is resting, and the other is on their honeymoon. Go find the dirt yourself. It’s near the Little Herb Kings.”
Just as Lu Yang was about to enter the herb garden, Grandpa Ba called out. “By the way, have you ever been in a relationship?”
“No.”
“Oh.” Grandpa Ba nodded and asked again, “Then do you know what girls like to hear the most?”
Lu Yang asked the Everlasting Immortal Fairy in his mental space. “What do you like people to say to you?”
“Complimenting me on being beautiful and smart.”
Lu Yang turned back to Grandpa Ba. “Complimenting her on being beautiful and smart.”
Grandpa Ba mulled over the answer. “Got it. Go on in.”
~~~
Although it had been a long time since he last visited the herb garden, Lu Yang effortlessly found his way to the Little Herb King's dwelling.
Under the Dao Enlightenment Tree, the Little Herb Kings held hands, singing and dancing around a bonfire.
“What’s that smell? So fragrant...”
“Ginseng King, your root hairs are on fire!”
“Quick, help me put it out!”
The Little Herb Kings swarmed in, stomping and kicking the Ginseng Doll, finally beating it up before the fire was extinguished.
“Lu Yang, you’re here?” The Dao Enlightenment Tree was the first to notice Lu Yang’s arrival and greeted him with a smile.
“It’s Lu Yang?”
The Little Herb Kings heard the Dao Enlightenment Tree and spotted Lu Yang. They hopped around Lu Yang’s feet, looking elated.
Lu Yang shrank himself and swept his eyes over the Little Herb Kings he hadn’t seen in months: Ginseng Doll, Three-Leaf Starry Herb, Time Terminus Flower, and Qilin Immortality Herb.
Seeing that Lu Yang was still willing to shrink down to their size, the Little Herb Kings were all the more delighted. “So, how’s it going? Which step of the she-devil counterattack plan are you at?”
The last time they parted, Lu Yang had deceived the Little Herb Kings, claiming that he also detested the “she-devil” Yun Zhi and would join forces with them to counterattack her.
At the time, Lu Yang didn’t know the full extent of Yun Zhi’s strength, assuming she was only at the Apex Fusion Stage. He thought that after cultivating for a few thousand years, he might have a chance to surpass her.
But now, even if I cultivate for thousands of years and have the resurrected Everlasting Immortal Fairy as my ally, I might still not be a match for Big Senior Sister.
“I knew you also had the idea of teaching Lass Yun a lesson, Lu Yang!” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy felt like she had found a like-minded ally, leaving his mental space in excitement.
“Huh, a soul body, a human. Who are you?” The Ginseng Doll crossed its root-like arms with a confident demeanor. I’ve heard of and seen the souls of powerful individuals residing within human cultivators. At most, those souls are at the Transcendent Tribulation Stage.
So what if they’re at the Transcendent Tribulation Stage? Can they live as long as us Herb Kings?
“Little Herb Doll, show this immortal some respect! Do you know who I am?!” As the leader of the five ancient immortals, what have I not seen? They’re just Herb Kings. I can have as many as I want at any time. Countless Little Herb Kings willingly followed me, but I was just too lazy to raise them.
The Everlasting Immortal Fairy released her aura slightly, but it was enough to startle the Little Herb Kings so much that they fell to the ground on their buttocks. It felt as though the person before them exerted a natural suppression over them.
“You...you...you...who are you?!”
The Dao Enlightenment Tree was also shocked. It didn’t know who this soul body was, but an inexplicable fear toward the Everlasting Immortal Fairy welled up from its instincts.
Beneath the fear and panic, there was also a faint hint of longing.
The Little Herb Kings could live for a long time, but ultimately, they couldn’t break free from the constraints of their lifespans. One day, they would reach the end of their lives.
On the other hand, the Everlasting Dao Fruit was eternal and perennial, synonymous with eternal life. It was the lifelong pursuit of the Little Herb Kings and had a natural suppressive effect on them.
For instance, when the Herding Sky Grass had dragged Lu Yang into a rough battle in the jungle, the Everlasting Immortal Fairy couldn’t take it lying down. Seeing Lu Yang bullied, she intended to teach the Herding Sky Grass a lesson and then release her Everlasting aura to suppress it. However, Lu Yang later entered a state of enlightenment, so the Everlasting Immortal Fairy didn’t follow through with it.
“I am the leader of the Five Ancient Immortals from three hundred thousand years ago. Now, I am the sole guest elder of the Dao-Seeking Sect, invited with deference by Lass Yun herself!
“I was also the first to become an immortal in the ancient era. As the founder of the Heavenly Court, I am the Supreme Grand Heavenly Sovereign—Dou Heavenly Sovereign!”
“Wah, so amazing!” The Little Herb Kings were astonished by the Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s various identities and titles, gazing at her with admiration.
“Hehe, now you know how amazing I am, right?
“I haven’t fully recovered yet, but once I regain my strength and return to my peak, I’ll lead you to attack Yun Zhi and show her who’s the strongest!”
The Little Herb Kings clapped enthusiastically, finding the Everlasting Immortal Fairy incredibly powerful and confident.
“So, Immortal Fairy, are you currently recovering your strength while residing within Lu Yang?”
“You’re partially correct. Not only am I recovering my strength within Lu Yang, but I have also set all kinds of trials for him. Once he completes them, I’ll take him as my successor!
“I also let Lu Yang experience the joy of wielding power by making him the sect leader of the Dao-Seeking Sect for three days, where he commanded absolute authority and enjoyed unparalleled glory.
“In addition, I guided him in his cultivation, shared ancient secrets with him, taught him mighty abilities such as Close Horizon From Cliff and Swallowing Heaven Devouring Earth, used his body to challenge opponents beyond his level, and nurtured his Unbeatable momentum!
“Lu Yang successfully formed the number one Unbeatable Golden Core of all time thanks to my excellent guidance!”
The Little Herb Kings were dumbfounded, thinking how lucky Lu Yang was to become the successor of an immortal who had imparted everything to him.
What a great fortuitous opportunity this is!
Although we have never heard of the Unbeatable Golden Core, if an immortal calls it the number one golden core of all time, nothing more needs to be said about its formidable power.
Lu Yang opened his mouth, wanting to say that the Everlasting Immortal Fairy was spouting nonsense. But upon closer thought, it felt like everything she said was true.
Who did she learn this from?
Lu Yang interrupted the Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s self-praise session. “We came to the herb garden to ask if there’s any particularly precious soil here for cultivation purposes.”
