I Might Be A Fake Cultivator

Chapter 500: Hong Dou Concedes to No One

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Atop a certain mountain within the White Lake Realm, two black figures were floating in the air.

They both had crimson eyes and black horns and boundless auras radiated from their bodies. Both of them were powerful cultivators from the Demon Realm.

“What do you think, Zhong Lixing? Should we chase them down?” A female true demon with an extremely voluptuous body in a black veil dress, which revealed a large section of her snowy white back, asked in a soft voice.

An extremely brawny male true demon nodded at her suggestion. “The mystic realm at the bottom of the lake must house extremely valuable treasures to have such a powerful guardian beast. We can’t miss an opportunity like this.”

“But… there’s only two of us…” The female true demon was a little hesitant.

The earth-shattering event that had just ended had attracted them to this location.

It was here from their vantage point that they witnessed just how powerful those people were. Even though the two true demons were both at the Soul Formation Pinnacle Stage, they did not have much confidence that they would be able to defeat those people that had just enter the mystic realm.

A slight smirk appeared on Zhong Lixing’s face. “Who said we would engage in direct combat with them, Kong Ge? Our target is whatever treasures that lie within the mystic realm. This mystic realm must be quite a huge one, we can just grab some treasures and run… We have that item anyway, so we’ll be able to escape even if we can’t beat them.”

Kong Ge nodded upon hearing this. Everyone on the path of cultivation had to strive for opportunities, and seeing as there wasn’t too much risk to their lives, there really was no reason for them to pass up this chance.

Thus, the two true demons transformed into black mist as they flew toward the center of the White Lake.

An Lin passed through the vortex, and the space around him warped before settling again.

A faint white light entered his eyes, and he looked around the mystic realm to find that he was situated within a huge stone hall over a hundred feet wide. There were four Phosphorescent Orbs embedded into the walls, each of which was around the size of a soccer ball. The Phosphorescent Orbs exuded a soft glow, which lit up the entire hall.

Liu Chuchu immediately brought out a sharp sword and began to pry the Phosphorescent Orbs out from the wall.

“All these pretty Phosphorescent Orbs are mine! Don’t fight over them with a girl like me!” She issued words of warning to everyone around her as she sprang into action.

Everyone was speechless after seeing what Liu Chuchu was doing. Was she really going after the Phosphorescent Orbs in the mystic realm? Just how poor was she?!

An Lin heaved a resigned sigh. Phosphorescent Orbs this large were quite a rarity, but people who tried to pry Phosphorescent Orbs out from the walls of mystic realms were even rarer!

Shouldn’t she be worried about pissing off the mystic realm?

What if the mystic realm became enraged and increased the difficulty of their trials?

One couldn’t blame An Lin for thinking like this. After all, he had explored both the Purple Star ruins as well as the Shou Yang Tomb, and he knew how important it was to keep the mystic realms happy…

In any case, Liu Chuchu was absolutely determined to pry the Phosphorescent Orbs from the walls, and she succeeded in the end before stowing the orbs away into her storage ring. The entire stone hall was then plunged into darkness.

In order to light up their surroundings, Hong Dou increased the brightness of the flames in his chest with a resigned expression.

“All done! Let’s continue!”

A cute smile appeared on Liu Chuchu’s face as she looked around at everyone.

There was a passageway within the stone hall that appeared as if it were leading to another world. The passageway was extremely wide and long, and everyone made their way forward slowly in case any mishaps arose.

After walking for a long time, they saw a film of rippling blue light at the end of the passageway.

There was a dark slab of rock above the film of light, upon which was inscribed a few bold characters.

“Huh… what does it say?” Liu Chuchu looked up at the characters with a confused gaze. The scripture was quite unfamiliar, but she could sense that it was quite an ancient text.

“Mainland Dragon Valley Sanctuary…” An Lin and Tina read the characters out loud at the same time.

They both turned to look at each other with surprise in their eyes.

“The characters are from the Ancient Man Language,” An Lin explained to everyone else.

Liu Chuchu, Hong Dou, and Ling Ying nodded upon hearing this, but their expressions were a little peculiar.

“Which means that the creature wasn’t guarding any treasure, but a sanctuary instead?” Hong Dou asked with a hint of disbelief in his voice.

“Does that mean there are still normal creatures on this crumbling continent?” Ling Ying exclaimed in shock.

“Of course! I’m a normal creature!” Tina waved her tiny fists as she protested in rage.

“What! You’re from this Ancient Tai Chu Realm?!” Hong Dou was quite startled upon hearing this.

Ling Ying also began to wave her tentacles around with excitement. “I thought you were from the Tai Chu Continent, but you’re actually from the Ancient Tai Chu Realm instead? Where did you come from?”

“I’m not telling you!” Tina felt as if she was being discriminated against, and she pursed her lips as she ducked into An Lin’s ear.

“Alright, let’s leave this conversation for another time. We should continue onward for now,” An Lin suggested.

The existence of this sanctuary was actually quite easy to understand. When a world became uninhabitable, some mighty figures would often create a new space for other creatures to live in. The Ancient Tai Chu Realm was a crumbling continent, so it was quite possible that everyone would encounter the native inhabitants of this continent within this Mainland Dragon Valley Sanctuary.

Everyone became a little bit nervous when they thought about this.

If there really were native inhabitants of the continent within the sanctuary, then they would be considered aliens, and they might run the risk of being attacked…

“Hong Dou, you look quite sturdy, you should go in first,” An Lin suggested.

The flames in Hong Dou’s chest flared up brightly as he retorted in rage, “Don’t even think about screwing me over like that! An Lin! You’re the strongest among everyone here, so you should go in first!”

“Hehe, you admit that I’m the most powerful one here, so it appears you do know your place after all…”

“Hmph, don’t try to goad me, I ain’t falling for it! I’ll admit I’m just a tiny little bit weaker than you, but so what?” Hong Dou harrumphed coldly.

Tina instantly sprang out from An Lin’s ear with a scathing retort, “A tiny bit? Aren’t you embarrassed to say that? You’re clearly miles behind An Lin! Not only are you weak, but you’re also a coward! You’re a useless rock whose only strong point is durability, and you’re not even willing to use that to your advantage. You truly have zero redeeming features!”

Tina’s Tai Chu Language mastery was growing more and more proficient, and her scathing tirade instantly made Hong Dou begin to doubt his own existence.

He was completely rooted to the spot, and the fact that he was being looked down on by a tiny little female fairy made her remarks sting even more, to the extent that he was seriously starting to wonder what was the purpose for his existence.

Could it be… that he really was a useless rock?

He recalled back to the battle against the Thousand-Eyed Demonic Dragon where he tried to flex to An Lin but was saved by the latter instead.

And now, he was standing at the entrance to a mystic realm, but he didn’t even dare to be the first one to enter…

Was he really just a useless rock compared to everyone else?

No! I, the great Hong Dou, refuse to concede to anyone!

After a brief mental conflict, the flames in his chest began to burn with his renewed determination.

“Hmph! You bunch of scaredy-cats, let me show you what a real warrior looks like! Follow Papa Hong Dou!” Hong Dou gritted his teeth as he stepped through the blue film of light.

Just you watch, the great Hong Dou will show you the way!

Hong Dou’s valiant actions instantly inspired awe and respect from everyone else.

“Well done!” An Lin transmitted his voice in praise.

“It was so-so,” Tina replied smugly.

A minute later, Ling Ying pulled out Hong Dou’s presence talisman. “Hong Dou is still alive, so it should be safe for us to enter.”

Everyone heaved a collective sigh of relief, and they stepped through the gate one by one.
