Who Let Him Cultivate?!

Chapter 63: Chapter 62: Position of the Base 1

Ten minutes later, Qin Yuanhao and the tall, thin man left the brothel with expressionless faces, completely lacking the excitement they had before entering the brothel.

Lu Yang scratched his temples. They left so quickly?

At the door, the madam handed Qin Yuanhao and the tall, thin man each a note. The two men opened them, read them, and then destroyed them.

“Brother Qin, the Rudder Master needs me for something and wants me to go to the sub-rudder. I will leave first.”

“Hmm, the Rudder Master also asked me to do something, so let’s part ways here. Don’t forget to publicize that I went to the brothel.”

“No problem.”

The two men split up outside the brothel. Lu Yang’s heart stirred and he decided to follow the thin, tall man.

The thm, tall man and Qin Yuanhao were evenly matched in their cultivation levels and did not notice Lu Yang hiding underground.

The pedestrians and buildings around them gradually dwindled until they came to a desolate wilderness. The thin, tall man seemed very familiar with the place and walked leisurely up the twisty mountain path. After about fifteen minutes, he stopped in front of a rock wall.

The place was located at the border of Yanjiang County and another county. Theoretically, it belonged to Yanjiang County. But due to historical factors, both parties had reason to claim jurisdiction.

Because both had reason, neither party managed the area.

After all, there was no valuable commodity here, thus there was no need to dispute the territory.

He knocked on the rock wall three long times and once short. As he chanted, the wall began to ripple like water.

The thin, tall man took a step and disappeared into the wall.

Lu Yang heard his chant, “Immortal Eternity, rise from the dead, pierce the clouds, eternal in the world”.

“Could this be a Blessed Cave?” Lu Yang’s eyes gleamed with surprise.

A Blessed Cave is a space opened by a cultivator who is highly skilled in space magic. The higher their cultivation level, the more complete the space they can open.

Generally speaking, cultivators at the Divinity Transformation Stage can open their own spaces.

Some cultivators prefer to use their Blessed Caves as a dwelling place, living a solitary life, while others turn them into tombs, also living solitary lives.

There have been countless cultivators at the Divinity Transformation Stage throughout history, let alone the Refining the Void, Unification, and Pass Tribulation stages above it.

Cultivators may pass away, but their Blessed Caves remain. This has resulted in numerous Relic Blessed Caves scattered across the Central Continent. Most cultivators do not disclose the locations and methods to open their Caves before their death, leaving others to rely on luck when searching for them.

Nobody knows how many Blessed Caves remain undiscovered.

The Eldest Senior Sister said that as the Great Era approaches, more and more Blessed Caves are being discovered, providing many people with opportunities to suddenly rise to prominence.

This Blessed Cave should be one left by an ancestor and discovered and utilized by the demonic sect.

Lu Yang did not rashly follow. Instead, he chose quietness, staying underground, waiting for the tall, thin man to come out.

Lu Yang felt uneasy about this. After all, this was Yanjiang Rudder, a stronghold of the demonic sect. Who knows how many experts were in there? Just hiding in the ground wasn’t covert enough.

With this thought, Lu Yang moved to a position where he could just see the entrance to the stronghold. He made himself small using the “inch shrink” technique, and hid using the stealth technique provided by Man Gu’s barbarian tribe.

After about an hour, a man wearing a mask came out of the stone wall, followed by the thin, tall man.

From appearances, the masked man held a higher rank than the thin, tall man. “Hmm?” The masked man noticed something was off and released his Spiritual Sense to scan the surroundings, even including underground.

“Come out, I’ve already found you. Don’t think you’re hiding so well. If you come out now, I might spare your life!” The masked man said indifferently.

“Still not coming out? Don’t think that the Rudder Master is a soft-hearted person. I’ll count to three, and if you still don’t come out, don’t blame me for not giving you a chance!”

“Three!”

“Two!”

“One!”

“Die!”

The Rudder Master condensed a burst of power in his palm and struck it in one direction, creating a loud rumbling sound.

“Rudder Master, what happened?” the tall, thin man asked respectfully.

The Rudder Master shook his head: “I just felt like someone was watching me. I tried to frighten them, but got no response. Maybe it was just my imagination.” Cold sweat broke out on Lu Yang’s forehead. He just had the impulse to jump out of the soil and confront the Rudder Master in order to gain a glimmer of hope for survival.

Luckily, his strong willpower suppressed this urge. He believed that the Barbarian stealth technique would not reveal his identity.

Lu Yang sensed the Rudder Master’s Spiritual Sense scanning over him, but he believed that the Rudder Master took him for a stone and didn¹1 take any notice. If the Rudder Master had really found him, he wouldn’t have bothered counting down and would have attacked directly.

‘Luckily the Barbarian stealth technique is brilliant. As long as I don’t move I won’t be discovered,” Lu Yang thought to himself, “This Rudder Master must be at the Golden Core Stage.”

“How is the preparation for the selection in ten days?”

Everything is ready. All we have to do is wait for the peers to come here in ten days. After passing the selection, they will join us.”

“Excellent. I hope we can recruit several gifted individuals from the Demon Path this time. That way, the headquarters will start paying attention to Yanjiang Rudder.”

The two man talked as they walked and soon disappeared from Lu Yang’s field of view. Lu Yang remained motionless, fearing that any movement could expose him.

A cultivator at Golden Core Stage is indeed not simple.”

Lu Yang waited for another half hour. He worried that the Rudder Master was so suspicious that he might suddenly return.

Half an hour later, the Rudder Master did not reappear.

“He’s gone.”

Lu Yang tunneled away from the scene.

This had been a fruitful visit. He had not only discovered the location of Yanjiang Rudder but also confirmed that the selection venue was here.

“Tell me, Mr. Trouble, what’s the deal with your hair? I heard you pull out a strand of hair every time you kill someone?” Guard Captain Wei, with his legs crossed, asked. The thieves were lined up, sitting scared on the other side.

“No, no, it’s just that being the boss is hard. My men cause trouble everywhere. My hair fell out because of stress.”

“How about you, Desperate ErLang? I heard you had a fight with a cultivator at the late stage of Foundation Establishment. You blinded both his eyes, and he blinded one of yours?”

“My, my eye is fine. I wear the eyepatch because it looks imposing. When you’re living by the sword, you need a story to tell.”

“And you, Flying on the Grass, I heard you were caught stealing in the palace. You’re looking at a life sentence, at worst, execution by being cut into pieces.” The Third Brother of Thieves quickly refuted, “That’s a misunderstanding, Officer. I was beaten and had a leg broken by my creditor because I couldn’t pay my debts.”

Guard Captain Wei yawned. He thought each of them carried a serious case on their backs. Who would have thought they were all so trivial?

“Captain Brother, I confess. I confess. I robbed sixteen houses…”

Guard Captain Wei waved his hand, “Let’s not rush. Firstly, tell me, why did you guys all rush to Yanjiang County?”

“Well…” The thief’s boss was hesitant, weighing the pros and cons of telling. Guard Captain Wei pointed to the torture room behind, “Did you see the torture instruments in the room? If you guys don’t confess, we’ll have to use those to help you.”

Seeing the blackened blood on the torture instruments, which looked particularly horrifying, the thieves swallowed hard and rushed to confess.

“I admit…”

The thieves had just uttered two words when they suddenly fell silent.

If anyone came behind them, they would find a cow hair-like needle lodged in their necks, the needle tipped with extreme poison!

“Assassins!”

Guard Captain Wei, being the most experienced constable, immediately realized what was happening. He rushed out, searching for the assassin. But, was there anyone out there?

Inside the interrogation room, the shadow moved as if alive, apparently chuckling a few times before disappearing.
