Who Let Him Cultivate Immortality

After hearing Barbarian Bone’s imaginative idea, an image involuntarily appeared in Lu Yang’s mind:

Under the night sky, a pitch-black silence enveloped the lonely dense forest. The bonfire, crackling and popping, was the only source of light, highlighting the eerie stillness of the woods.

A goat, with its belly slit open and its organs removed, was smeared with bizarre herbs and stood atop the bonfire, dancing a meaningless dance as if it were a sacrifice to an evil god.

The scene was indeed quite strange, surpassing the current human race’s capacity for artistic appreciation.

“What a great idea! As expected of the barbarians, their thinking is very close to their ancestors!” Everlasting Fairy exclaimed excitedly, slapping her thigh. She vaguely saw the shadow of an old acquaintance in Barbarian Bone.

“You have to admit, though the barbarians might be muscle-brained and not very sharp, they have a lot of innovative ideas when it comes to food!”

“The key is their high degree of self-motivation and creativity. Of course, not to brag, but I contributed a bit to that as well,” Everlasting Fairy said, making a small gesture with her thumb and forefinger.

Lu Yang thought Everlasting Fairy was being too modest, considering she was the enlightenment teacher of the ancient barbarians.

“Fairy, do you know any corpse-controlling spells?”

Everlasting Fairy thought for a moment. “Does playing dead count? It’s an immortal technique that both the dragon and phoenix clans scrambled to learn. Conservatively, it can be used up to the Tribulation Crossing Stage.”

“…That doesn’t count.”

“Then no, I don’t.”

Lu Yang thought of another question. “Fairy, did you use the playing dead technique after becoming an immortal?”

He thought playing dead was something Everlasting Fairy would use when she was weaker. After becoming immortal and claiming to be the leader of the five ancient immortals, she shouldn’t need to use it.

“Yes, I did.”

“Huh? You used it even after becoming an immortal?”

Talking about this topic, Everlasting Fairy rarely blushed, giggling embarrassedly.

“You know, I couldn’t save money. I spent it lavishly, and at that time, I quickly ran out of spirit stones, leaving me penniless.”

“I was too embarrassed to ask my followers for spirit stones since I was their object of faith.”

“So, what did I do when I ran out of money? I soon thought of a way.”

“I used the playing dead technique to fake my death. Then, Ying Tian Immortal and the other three would come to mourn me and give me spirit stones. That way, I had money again.”

“I used this trick several times, and it worked pretty well.”

Lu Yang: “…”

There were so many points to criticize about this that he didn’t know where to start.

“There’s another matter. Can Barbarian Bone’s ancient barbarian bloodline be temporarily sealed? This time we were lucky; only Golden Core Stage monsters were attracted. Next time we might not be so lucky. If a Nascent Soul Stage monster gets drawn, it will be disastrous.”

Lu Yang was worried. If they encountered a Nascent Soul Stage monster, even the Yellow Bean Fist might not save them. They would have to use a directional teleportation talisman to return to the Demon Subjugation Pass.

“It’s fine, Barbarian Bone doesn’t need to seal his bloodline temporarily. Didn’t you notice towards the end of the battle? Barbarian Bone was already able to suppress the armored beast with his bloodline.”

“This means Barbarian Bone’s ancient barbarian bloodline can suppress Golden Core Stage and below monsters. Golden Core Stage monsters would flee from Barbarian Bone, while Nascent Soul Stage monsters won’t be affected by his bloodline.”

“However, if Barbarian Bone advances to the Golden Core Stage, it will be a different story.”

Everlasting Fairy analyzed everything meticulously. In terms of professionalism, she had never faltered, especially considering she single-handedly created the ancient barbarian tribe.

Lu Yang sighed with relief, feeling a weight lifted from his mind. Otherwise, he would have to be on edge for the next few months in the dense forest.

“Do you want long hair? I have a way,” Everlasting Fairy said with a cheeky smile.

“What way?”

“I have a set of ginger boxing techniques. Once you learn them, you can grow a head of shiny, black hair!”

To be honest, Lu Yang was tempted, but considering Everlasting Fairy’s unreliability, combined with the dubious name of the technique, he had his doubts.

“Forget it, my hair will grow back in ten days or so.”

Ordinary hair wouldn’t grow this fast, but Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou stimulated their scalps with spiritual energy every night to speed up hair growth, and the results were significant.

In the real world, the four of them were eating the freshly roasted lion meat, with Barbarian Bone gnawing on the lion’s head.

“As expected of Golden Core Stage lion meat, it’s tender and juicy.”

“Lu Yang’s True Fire technique is also excellent. Generally, this kind of roasting would char the exterior while leaving the inside undercooked, but under Lu Yang’s precise control, the True Fire simultaneously roasts the outer layer and the interior, ensuring uniform doneness. He’s better than me in this regard,” Meng Jingzhou analyzed, admitting that in terms of using True Fire, he was inferior to Lu Yang.

Meng Jingzhou hadn’t mastered even one type of True Fire, so he was definitely no match for Lu Yang.

Actually, Single Spirit Roots naturally come with a type of True Fire called Pure Yang True Fire, which can subdue all ghosts and demons. Once they reach the Golden Core Stage, they automatically master it.

This is a pretty heaven-defying talent, but compared to Lu Yang, it didn’t seem all that extraordinary.

After they were full and satisfied, they prepared to rest.

“Peach Blossom Leaf and I will take the first half of the night, Meng Jingzhou and Barbarian Bone will take the second half. How about it?”

“Sounds good.”

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou had experience spending the night in the dense forest, so they had to split the night watch shifts.

If Peach Blossom Leaf and Barbarian Bone were on watch together and an unexpected situation occurred, like an attack by beasts or humans, they might not react in time.

In the dense forest, the dangers weren’t limited to beasts; humans could be just as dangerous.

During a night in the forest with the Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain, Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou had encountered a human ambush.

Luckily, the opponents were of average cultivation and were quickly dealt with by Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou.

As they started their night watch, Lu Yang saw Peach Blossom Leaf immediately spread her divine sense to scout the surroundings and reminded her, “Don’t keep your divine sense spread out all the time. Using it like this will soon exhaust you.”

“The night is long. How long do you think you can maintain this?”

“It’s not just Peach Blossom Leaf that cannot use divine sense in this way; even Lu Yang, whose divine sense rivals that of the Golden Core Stage, doesn’t dare to use it like this.”

“What should I do then?” Peach Blossom Leaf obediently retracted her divine sense.

“Use your eyes to look, your ears to listen, and engage your five senses to observe your surroundings.”

“At first, it might feel uncomfortable, but try it a few times. With your talent, you’ll easily master this method.”

“Once you learn it, it will be very useful in battles too.”

“Don’t overly rely on your divine sense. Over-reliance can easily lead you into the opponent’s traps.” This was a lesson Everlasting Fairy had taught Lu Yang, and now Lu Yang passed it on to Peach Blossom Leaf.

Peach Blossom Leaf nodded and began focusing on observing the surroundings as Lu Yang had instructed.

The two sat quietly, not saying another word.

When it was time to switch shifts, Peach Blossom Leaf jumped up onto a tree, lay flat, and fell asleep in a relaxed position.

Seeing this, Lu Yang couldn’t help but recall the first time he and Peach Blossom Leaf undertook a task dealing with a Paint Skin Ghost, staying at the Shang residence, where Peach Blossom Leaf had complained that the bed wasn’t as comfortable as the one at Dao Seeking Sect and couldn’t sleep.

“I’m not the only one growing.”
