Who Let Him Cultivate Immortality

Chapter 449: How strong must Lu Yang's master be, when even the eldest senior sister is so powerful?

Lu Yang wiped the tea from his face and looked innocently at the Great Elder. "Great Elder, what's wrong?"

The Great Elder stared at Lu Yang as if he were seeing a ghost, thinking his old age might have affected his hearing.

He had lived for over two thousand years, as the eldest of the nine disciples of the Seek Tao Sect and a half-step Tribulation Crossing stage expert, yet this was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

As far as he knew, Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou had gone to the Wild State, at most accompanied by that Dragon Horse demon king.

Even with this lineup, even if it were ten times stronger, it would be impossible to capture three Tribulation Crossing stage souls.

"Who did you capture?"

"Wu Youdao, Venerable Xuanlei, and Venerable Wuji," Lu Yang counted on his fingers for the Great Elder.

The Great Elder took a sharp sip of tea. These three were all renowned Tribulation Crossing stage experts of the Great Yu Dynasty, especially Wu Youdao, who had the natural aura of a dragon and tiger emperor, often praised by historians of Great Yu.

"The old horse ran fast, so we arrived first. The news probably hasn't spread yet. Great Elder, you have no idea how dangerous it was in the Wild State. We almost lost our lives there; it was extremely perilous."

"First, explain how you managed to capture these three Tribulation Crossing stage experts."

Lu Yang replied mysteriously, "Great Elder, there's no one else here, and we're all from the Heavenly Court Sect, so I won't hide it from you. We have a great figure in our sect, the supreme leader of the ancient Heavenly Court, the Supreme Heavenly Venerable, Dou Heavenly Sovereign!"

"I captured these three Tribulation Crossing stage experts with the help of Dou Heavenly Sovereign!"

The Great Elder was momentarily stunned, then smiled knowingly.

It seemed Yun Zhi had intervened.

Although Junior Niece Yun's position in the Heavenly Court Sect was that of the leader, it didn't prevent her from having multiple identities.

For instance, she was both the eldest senior sister among the disciples and the acting sect master.

"Alright, alright, since it's Junior Niece Yun's matter, you should discuss it with her."

The Great Elder threw Lu Yang out of the mission hall.

Lu Yang shook his head helplessly and said to the Immortal Fairy, "See, I told you, we need to find the eldest senior sister for this. You can't just bypass her and come to the mission hall to exchange contribution points. It's impossible."

"Alright," the Immortal Fairy said dejectedly.

Just as Qiu Jin'an had said, the eldest senior sister had already completed the paperwork for their master's release and returned to the sect.

When Lu Yang returned to Tianmen Peak, the eldest senior sister still maintained her ethereal demeanor, sitting cross-legged at the mountain's peak, her eyes containing countless stars, mysterious and unfathomable.

Just looking at her from afar, one could feel immense pressure.

Wu Youdao and the other two felt their scalps tingle at the sight. Lu Yang couldn't understand the significance of this scene, but as Tribulation Crossing stage cultivators, they knew exactly what it meant.

Because they knew, they felt fear deep in their hearts.

During the Great Yu era, the stars in the sky were remnants from ancient times, with almost no real stars left.

Because of this, when Wu Youdao and the others awoke from their slumber, they quickly noticed the anomaly in the starry sky.

The stars, originally just remnants, had been silently filled in by someone, with no records of it.

What kind of immense power was this?

And what realm must one reach to achieve such a feat?n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

They had always wanted to know who had rekindled the stars in the sky, and now they finally knew.

They wished they didn't.

"Eldest Senior Sister, I'm back," Lu Yang said obediently in front of her.

"What did he call this immortal? Eldest Senior Sister?" Venerable Xuanlei exclaimed, losing his composure.

The other two had similar reactions. This woman was actually Lu Yang's eldest senior sister?

Then what kind of powerhouse must Lu Yang's master be?

What a terrifying Seek Tao Sect.

"You're back?" The eldest senior sister stood up, the stars in her cold eyes flashing briefly before disappearing, her black and white eyes quietly observing Lu Yang.

"What's the deal with the three Tribulation Crossing stage experts inside you?" She casually glanced at him, seeing the bustling activity in his mental space.

"Alright, come out," the Immortal Fairy said, pulling the three out.

In her hands, the three Tribulation Crossing stage experts were no different from chicks.

"Their cultivation foundations are quite ordinary, making it difficult for them to become immortals. Explain the situation."

The eldest senior sister recognized all the current Tribulation Crossing stage experts, having visited them for guidance. She didn't recognize these three, indicating they were ancient cultivators.

In her view, their foundations were too weak to achieve immortality.

Lu Yang recounted the events, skipping over his romantic encounters, and only mentioned going to the Corpse Driving Sect, discovering the haunting in Hanshui City, encountering Huang Ming, a Great Yu Body Fusion stage cultivator starting over, and being saved by Qiu Jin'an when Lord Mengtian intervened.

"Lord Mengtian and Huang Ming escaped and haven't been caught. Wu Youdao appeared with a look of having his plans exposed, executing them ahead of schedule."

Wu Youdao: "..."

So, you didn't capture Lord Mengtian and Huang Ming!

Venerable Xuanlei and Venerable Wuji looked at Wu Youdao with resentment. Why did you jump out so eagerly?

Their original plan was to wait for Venerable Wuji to successfully cross the tribulation, activate the grand array, and seize the power of the nation's fate.

Even though they followed the original plan, the result was still the Immortal Fairy using the power of the nation's fate to deal with the three of them.

Lu Yang then described the battle between Wu Youdao's side and Governor Lu's side, emphasizing the possession of Sect Master Lu and the man in the white paper hat who appeared to help, suspected to be the Jiuyou Sect's leader.

"Possessed Sect Master Lu?" The eldest senior sister's eyes narrowed, space rippling, causing Venerable Wuji's soul to tremble as if being watched by an extremely terrifying presence, unable to escape.

When she went to the Corpse Driving Sect for exchange and study, she mainly sought guidance on the corpse-driving technique from Sect Master Lu.

"Sect Master Lu's soul lamp hasn't extinguished, indicating he wasn't fully possessed, but it's still unforgivable."

She stepped forward, coldly pressing down on Venerable Wuji's head, causing him to scream in agony, as if his three souls and seven spirits were being forcibly torn apart, his consciousness rapidly dissipating.

"Why have you disappeared? Why can't I see you?" Venerable Wuji's vision went black, stumbling around blindly.

"Venerable Wuji, you..." Venerable Xuanlei hesitated, wanting to say it wasn't them who disappeared, but that he had lost his ability to perceive the outside world.

"Is someone speaking? Louder, I can't hear you," Venerable Wuji had lost his hearing.

His consciousness faded, his mouth opening and closing without making a sound, and he collapsed to the ground.

His soul was cleansed, and from then on, Venerable Wuji ceased to exist.

"Use him as an artifact spirit," the eldest senior sister said, tossing Venerable Wuji aside and looking at the trembling Wu Youdao and Venerable Xuanlei.

A Tribulation Crossing stage artifact spirit, even Tribulation Crossing level artifacts might not have such a powerful spirit.

Refining a cultivator's soul into an artifact spirit was second only to complete soul annihilation in terms of brutality.

"If you two hide anything, you'll also be refined into artifact spirits."
