Who Let Him Cultivate?!

Chapter 458: Chapter 457: How Many Sect Leader One Day Experience Coupons Can This Immortal Exchange For?_1

Having earned the approval of Fairy Eternity verifies that this magic skill is genuinely valuable – a rare item indeed.

Lu Yang successfully borrowed “Eternity Technique”, and returned to Sky Gate Mountain to study. He reached his usual training spot and started reading Eternity Technique, taking in each word and sentence with grave seriousness.

“The elder, continuous and unending. The living, ceaselessly reproducing…”

The Eternity Technique begins by defining the word “eternity” and warns those studying the skill that if it falls into the hands of deceitful cultivators, it could cause trouble and become a self-inflicted disaster.

Lu Yang thought about it. Seeing as he manages himself with integrity, he doesn’t consider himself a deceitful cultivator, so he begins to learn the skill with enthusiasm and confidence.

Lu Yang took two breaths, exhaled twice, relaxed his mind, and easily slipped into a meditative state, giving his unabated attention to learning the skill.

Perhaps Lu Yang truly possesses a natural talent in learning magic skills, or perhaps this skill is easy to learn. Either way, as Lu Yang learned while reading, he surprisingly grasped the basics very quickly.

“It’s so easy to cultivate?” Lu Yang wondered, realizing he must indeed have a deep connection with eternity.

“But how do I demonstrate that I have mastered it?” Lu Yang found himself in a quandary. He can’t wait for his theoretically assigned lifespan to see if he’s near death by then.

The cost of this proof seemed simply too high.

“Never mind, let’s just try it out first. Perhaps there will be other sensations.”

Lu Yang decided to act on this thought and silently started practicing Eternity Technique. Soon, he felt an itch on his scalp.

A spot Lu Yang couldn’t see was causing his hair to grow at a rapid pace.

Lu Yang subconsciously touched his head and exclaimed, “My hair has grown so long!”

Why would Eternity Technique affect the hair?

“In Buddhism, the hair is referred to as ‘Three Thousand Strands of Worry’. Could it be that the writer of the magic formula is trying to tell me that eternal life is lonely and ultimately filled with worry? Loneliness accompanies the seeker of eternity throughout life. Is it possible that eternal life is a curse, thus implying not to seek it?”

Lu Yang’s thought process was clear. He tried to speculate on the probable intention of the writer of the magic skill, resulting in him gaining profound insight.

Fairy Eternity couldn’t resist giving a hint: “Why not look at the last page of the book, on the backside?”

“What do you mean? There’s writing on the back?”

Lu Yang flipped to the back of the last page as Fairy Eternity suggested.

He found the last page displaying a message: This magic skill causes extraordinary hair growth. It’s specifically designed to combat baldness, and it should never be used on Buddhists as it can provoke havoc.

Lu Yang: “….”

“‘Hair growth’ and you wrote ‘Eternity’, what’s the deal with that?”

Is this some kind of abbreviation?

Who wrote this magic skill?

Lu Yang angrily closed the book and saw the author’s name on the cover: Tang Shengyi.

Tang Shengyi, the master of the nine disciples of the Seek Dao Sect, and Lu Yang’s grandmaster, who is currently retired.

Lu Yang calmed down, his anger subsiding significantly, “Grandmaster, is this how you name things… wait, Fairy, did you already know about this skill?”

“Yes, while you were reading in the Scripture Pavilion, I was too. I used my immortal perceptions to read, and I’ve read this book.”

“Then why did you say this magic skill was suitable for me, and that I would need it in the future?”

“Isn’t your Eternity Technique very compatible with your Arhat Fist?”

Lu Yang: “….”

So Fairy’s brain only works at times like this, huh?

Alright then, may Emperor Xia have good fortune. I’ve done my best.

Just as Lu Yang was preparing to bicker with Fairy Eternity, the Eldest Senior Sister returned to Sky Gate Mountain from her visit with the Elders.

The Eldest Senior Sister looked at Lu Yang with a hint of confusion. She didn’t recall Lu Yang’s hair being so long when she left?

After seeing the Eternity Technique in Lu Yang’s hand, Eldest Senior Sister understood.

“Eldest Senior Sister, have you found a way to extend Emperor Xia’s lifespan?”

The Eldest Senior Sister shook her head, “Only the clues from Fairy Eternity about the Spirit Root seem plausible. The Elders’ methods are a bit…”

Without even hearing her finish, in light of his firm impression of the Elders, Lu Yang could roughly imagine their suggestions.

Possibly even proposing something like “Transform Emperor Xia into a living corpse and pretend he’s still alive”.

“Miss Yun, surely you remember that I just did you a favor and secured three Transcendence Tribulation Stage souls!” Fairy Eternity suddenly recalled something as she saw the Eldest Senior Sister and crawled out from inside Lu Yang.

“Of course, the souls Fairy Eternity caught are very valuable.”

“In that case, shouldn’t you give me some contribution points?”

“You should.”

“Then, how many ‘One-day Sect Leader Experience Coupons’ can I exchange with my contribution points?” Fairy Eternity didn’t bother to hide her intent.

Lu Yang looked at Fairy Eternity in shock. Is it too late to get a new golden hand now?

The Eldest Senior Sister quickly calculated, “Approximately enough for two months as Sect Leader.”

“That much?” Fairy Eternity grinned from ear to ear. Last time, she got to be the Sect Leader for just three days and it wasn’t enough. Now she could be Sect Leader for two months. Now that should be fun!

“I want to be the Sect Leader for two months!” Fairy Eternity, fearing the Eldest Senior Sister would change her mind, made a hurried decision.

Lu Yang hurriedly interrupted, “Eldest Senior Sister, this cannot be allowed. Fairy Eternity has always used my body to interact with others. Last time when I was the acting Sect Leader for three days, I found my master who had been missing for ten years, which counted as a major achievement. But what about this time? I can’t possibly claim to have found my master who had been missing for ten years twenty times, right?”

The Eldest Senior Sister frivolously replied, “No problem at all. We can simply say that Master was impressed with your successful stint as Acting Sect Leader last time and wants to nurture you by letting you serve as Acting Sect Leader for another two months.”

As a Sect Leader, Daoist Buyu can appoint anyone as Acting Sect Leader whenever he wishes.

As a disciple, Yun Zhi can manipulate her Master’s words as she pleases.

“Any more questions? If not, I shall become the Sect Leader!” Fairy Eternity was overjoyed, looking as happy as if it were the New Year.

“Coincidentally, the Sect will hold a celebration for its 120,000th anniversary two months from now. Fairy Eternity, you can carefully plan during these two months and show the world the elegance of an ancient Immortal at the celebration.” The Eldest Senior Sister revealed a faint smile, which quickly faded.

“A Sect celebration?” Lu Yang and Fairy Eternity looked at each other, both full of doubt.

Following the Eldest Senior Sister’s simple explanation, they finally understood. Everyone says the Seek Dao Sect has a history of 120,000 years, but strictly speaking, the Seek Dao Sect was still two months shy of its 120,000-year anniversary.

The founding of the Seek Dao Sect happened on the sixth day of November.

The day Daoist Xiantian, the founder of the Sect, got lost.

The Sect’s celebration attracted visits from various powers and was a grand event.

Fairy Eternity was obviously showing signs of regret at having to organize the celebration.

“I guess the work of the celebration should be better off left to your people from the Seek Dao Sect. I’d rather not participate.”

The Eldest Senior Sister looked at Fairy Eternity with a slightly surprised expression, “Fairy Eternity, as a guest official of this Sect, how can you count as not being one of us? If you’re not a guest official, you won’t have any contribution points.”

“Hmm~~”

Fairy Eternity pursed her lips and found herself caught in a dilemma, trying to make a decision.

“Or are you suggesting that Fairy Eternity feels that there are too many details involved with the celebration and it’s too difficult to handle, so is considering quitting?”

“Absolutely not, it’s just a matter of organising a celebration. I shall be the Acting Sect Leader for two months!” A surge of fighting spirit ignited behind the fiery eyes of Fairy Eternity.

“Then we appreciate Fairy Eternity’s efforts.”

“No problem!”
