Who Let Him Cultivate?!

Chapter 498: Chapter 497 Lu Yang’s Three

Lu Yang had three trump cards that he didn’t use lightly.

The first was Eldest Sister’s Form Boxing, which would summon Eldest Sister.

The second was invoking the Fairy Eternity, asking her to possess him.

The third was the Invincible Elixir, used to strategize a winning plan.

Any one of these trump cards could deal a fatal blow to a Cultivator of the same realm.

Lu Yang would only reveal a card if the opponent was too strong or initiated covert moves. Kong Hao was an example of the latter.

The power Kong Hao exhibited clearly wasn’t his own. Lu Yang suspected that a powerful soul was dwelling within him—a tactic Lu Yang was all too familiar with, since he had one within him as well.

This made fighting practically impossible.

The powerful soul within Kong Hao was likely from someone of Unification realm at the very least. Lu Yang couldn’t possibly compete with that using his own power.

He decisively used the Invincible Elixir. The answer it provided was clear and in line with his speculations: he should report Kong Hao to the referee.

“So this is the so-called genius, fighting me with external help?” Young Master Lu scoffed. “If you’re going to ignore him breaking the rules like this, I might as well use the magic artifact bestowed by the Sect leader and my mentor, which can even withstand a hit from someone at the Pass Tribulation stage.”

“Considering that the magic artifact is greatly beyond regulations, I decided not to use it in the fight. But if Kong Hao is allowed to break the rules, then I see no reason to hold back.” @@novelbin@@

“Defeated party, Kong Hao.”

Just as Kong Hao was about to fight with his newfound power, he heard the referee declare the results and went off stage in disappointment.

The first people he encountered after descending the stage weren’t from the Flying Waterfall Sect, but venerable senior Cultivators of the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.

“Make way, I want to see who is inside this lad.”

“I created the Possess Art, let me examine him first, I am an expert in this.”

“I am the highest in cultivation level, let me do it.”

The Sect Leader of the Flying Waterfall Sect wanted to approach, but these big shots had already crowded him out.

“This aura resembles one of the Four Fierce Beasts.” The One Qi Venerable, who was most sensitive to spiritual force, was the first one to make a judgment.

“Young man, do not resist, let me visit your Lingtai.”

As the One Qi Venerable finished speaking, a small figure flew out from his Lingtai and into Kong Hao’s Lingtai.

“Ho, this is a big one.”

Kong Hao’s Lingtai was much larger than those of the same realm, not as a result of his training, but it had been stretched by the enormous entity inside him.

An iron fence divided his Lingtai into two parts. The smaller part was Kong Hao’s activity space, and the larger part was where the colossal entity was sealed.

hu’s cultivation level and identity, he was shocked.

He initially thought Old Taozhu was at the unification stage, but he turned out to be the incredibly terrifying transcendence-tribulation stage.

Being an orphan, as far as he could remember, Old Taozhu had been residing inside his body, sealed by someone unknown.

Kong Hao had always been afraid to reveal the existence of Old Taozhu, fearing that the Great Powers would covet him. This was why he chose to join the Flying Waterfall Sect, an insignificant second-rate sect.

Unexpectedly, the truth was still exposed in the end.

How would these Great Powers treat him?

There was no use hoping that Old Taozhu would tell the truth. The transcendence-tribulation cultivators inquired about what Kong Hao knew and combined it with the information they had about Old Taozhu. They deduced the big picture:

After Old Taozhu failed in competing for the Clan Leader position, he was hunted down, his flesh destroyed, and his soul damaged. He managed to escape to the Great Xia Territory, where a cultivator specialized in sealing magic, who was at the peak of unification, sealed Old Taozhu within Kong Hao’s body.

Judging from the degree of the seal, that peak unification cultivator had shown kindness to Kong Hao. As Kong Hao’s strength continuously increased, he could gradually unseal and utilize the power of Old Taozhu.

“You have two choices.” One Qi Venerable guided Kong Hao.

“Release the seal, and we will capture Old Taozhu. Correspondingly, we will provide you with suitable rewards, including treasures and spirit elixirs. It’s as if we’re buying it from you. This is the safest plan.”

Old Taozhu being hard to deal with at the transcendence-tribulation stage is true, but isn’t everyone present at the same stage? If they all attacked at once, Old Taozhu would have no choice but to resist passively.

“Or you can continue sealing Old Taozhu. As your strength increases, you can gradually unseal it. However, you run the risk of backlash in the process.”

“Which will you choose?”

…

While all the transcendence-tribulation cultivators were observing Old Taozhu as if he was an exotic animal, the competition was proceeding in an orderly manner.

Feeling threatened by Meng Jingzhou’s Single Curse Fist, Lan Ting became defensive and was defeated by Meng Jingzhou.

Meng Jingzhou earned the qualifications for the final round.

Following his master’s instructions, Yan Tianzhi fought for his life when he encountered someone from the Five Elements Sect. He defeated Bai Ming and advanced smoothly into the semi-finals.

“Pri evaluation of the founded master of the Prison Suppressing Sect.

In the judging panel, Qiu Jin’an and Luo Hongxia looked at Yang Ding in surprise.

You hadn’t mentioned this before, this Lu Yang nearly praised your founding sect master to the skies.

Scratching his head in embarrassment, Yang Ding said, “I thought it would be a good opportunity to promote our Prison Suppressing Sect.”
