Who Let Him Cultivate Immortality

“That was a good fight. I initially thought that after you advanced to the Golden Core Stage, your swordsmanship fundamentals would not keep up with your current realm and intended to remind you. It seems I was overthinking.”

“It’s all thanks to Eldest Senior Sister’s excellent teaching.”

Lu Yang dared not slacken in his fundamental training. Recalling when he first started cultivating, Eldest Senior Sister had him practice his basics relentlessly, playing with tofu during the day and soaking in hot baths at night. If not for the ample supply of elixirs, whether he could have survived was uncertain.

If Eldest Senior Sister found his basics lacking and put him through that again… Lu Yang shivered at the thought.

He couldn’t go through that again!

“Little Peach, comprehending the yin-yang transformation from the Twin Stem Lotus and integrating it with your illusions is a good thing, but don’t forget you also have the Feathered Immortal Physique. Don’t neglect its development.”

“Yes, Eldest Senior Sister!”

“Alright, you two can review this battle after you return. For now, let’s watch Little Meng and Little Barbarian’s fight.”

“These two have been fighting for this long?” Peach Blossom Leaf was surprised. She and Lu Yang had fought long enough, yet Meng Jingzhou and Barbarian Bone were still at it.

“Both of them are body cultivators, making it hard to determine a winner,” Lu Yang was not surprised. Meng Jingzhou’s Golden Core was highly effective against demons and ghosts but not as much against Barbarian Bone, who was also a body cultivator.

Barbarian Bone wielded a beast leg bone, a trophy from the forest taken from a Nascent Soul Stage beast he and Peach Blossom Leaf had jointly defeated.

Barbarian Bone swung the beast leg bone, howling like a wild man, his eyes filled with madness and savagery.

Lu Yang was puzzled. He had never seen Barbarian Bone in this state, and this manner didn’t seem to match Barbarian Bone’s usual demeanor.

Barbarian Bone fought with brute strength but had never been this frenzied, like hunting beasts in the wild.

Meng Jingzhou was startled by Barbarian Bone’s appearance, losing the initiative and being suppressed from the start, spending most of his energy on defense and rarely attacking.

Despite Barbarian Bone’s wild fighting style, a closer look revealed it to be a refined combat method, both offensive and defensive, honed through countless tests and improvements.

“Hmm, this fighting style looks familiar, just like the barbarians I encountered. They wield stones and bones, swarming their enemies and smashing their brains out!” Everlasting Fairy, seeing something familiar, was quite excited.

Lu Yang was curious, “Is this the ancient barbarian fighting style? But I heard that the ancient barbarian combat techniques have been lost.”

The barbarian lineage had severe discontinuities, with few records of ancient events.

“Did you forget? Barbarian Bone’s bloodline is blessed by me. Just as beasts can pass on their innate abilities through their bloodline, so can I!”

When beasts reach a certain realm, the hidden power in their bloodline unlocks, allowing them to learn their innate abilities.

The Taotie clan’s “Devour” and the nine-tailed fox clan’s “Charm” are examples.

The purer the bloodline, the earlier the inheritance power is unlocked.

“By the way, what kind of Golden Core did Barbarian Bone form?” Lu Yang turned to Peach Blossom Leaf, thinking there was no need to keep it a secret now.

“It should be a completely new type of Golden Core, like mine. I think it’s called the Ancestral Spirit Golden Core, allowing him to summon the spirits of his ancestors to possess him and aid in battle.”

“That’s amazing!” Lu Yang was astonished, “Does this mean the souls of the ancient barbarians still exist?”

Yun Zhi shook her head slowly, “It’s not as you think. Souls that last three hundred thousand years without dissipating are only within the realm of immortals.”

“Then what’s going on with Barbarian Bone?”

“Although Barbarian Bone’s ancestors’ souls dissipated and returned to heaven and earth, they had a bloodline connection with Barbarian Bone. Sensing the existence of their descendant, the ancestors reassembled parts of their lost souls from heaven and earth, channeling them through the ancient barbarian bloodline into Barbarian Bone’s body. However, this possession is more instinctive and lacks true consciousness.”

Lu Yang thought of Everlasting Fairy. This was somewhat similar to Everlasting Fairy’s method, but not nearly as miraculous.

“So Meng Jingzhou’s opponent isn’t just Barbarian Bone, but an entire ancient barbarian tribe?” Lu Yang realized Meng Jingzhou was in for a tough fight.

The ancient barbarians were a race that had fought alongside Everlasting Fairy, engaging in battles as often as eating. Their combat experience was incredibly rich, making Meng Jingzhou no match.

On the arena, Meng Jingzhou was being steadily pushed back. Neither Arhat Fist nor Heaven Shaking Six Forms were effective.

Barbarian Bone’s eyes were vacant, completely taken over by the ancestors of the ancient barbarians, fighting purely on instinct.

In terms of physical strength, Meng Jingzhou was slightly stronger than Barbarian Bone, but Barbarian Bone’s vast combat experience made up for it.

The ancestors of the ancient barbarians had hundreds of thousands of years of combined combat experience, a formidable challenge for Meng Jingzhou.

Although Barbarian Bone had the upper hand, pressing Meng Jingzhou hard, he couldn’t defeat him quickly.

“Doesn’t Meng Jingzhou look a bit off?”

Meng Jingzhou felt himself entering a strange state. Inside his body, his two single Golden Cores sensed Barbarian Bone’s Golden Core, spinning uncontrollably like two small suns, warming his body and making his acupoints open, each one absorbing spiritual energy.

As the two Golden Cores spun, Meng Jingzhou’s mind went blank, with past experiences flashing through his mind.

Those memories condensed to an extreme before suddenly exploding in his mind with a thunderous roar.

Meng Jingzhou’s head shook, and he found the world clearer than ever before.

“Did I just have an enlightenment and comprehend a new set of fist techniques?”

Meng Jingzhou clenched his fists, incredulous.

He had heard that enlightenment was rare and often unattainable for most cultivators in their lifetime. Yet, he had achieved it at the Golden Core Stage?

And from the recent experience, it seemed the two single Golden Cores were helping him reach this enlightenment?

“I knew my single Golden Cores were unbeatable!”

Meng Jingzhou mentally rehearsed the newly comprehended fist technique, his expression becoming odd.

“This fist technique seems…”

“Hold on!” Meng Jingzhou extended his hand, stopping Barbarian Bone’s attack.

“I just comprehended a new fist technique. If your ancestors insist on fighting, don’t blame me for using it!”

Barbarian Bone paused, seemingly curious about what Meng Jingzhou would say next.

“The fist technique I comprehended involves the power of karma, curses, and carries the grievances of my single lineage!”

“Anyone hit by my fist will be cursed to remain single like me for life. This is a karmic curse!”

“I have named it the Single Curse Fist!”

“This should be the innate fist technique of the Twin Single Golden Cores!”

“If you’re willing to let Barbarian Bone get hit by this fist, go ahead and keep attacking me!”

The ancestors of the ancient barbarians hurriedly used Barbarian Bone’s body to jump off the arena and concede defeat.

Their instincts told them that Meng Jingzhou was telling the truth!
