“Did Dai Bufan give you some contribution points for your undercover mission?” Yun Zhi asked after dinner.
“Yes, quite a few.” Lu Yang replied, beaming. Among his peers, he had the most contribution points.
“In three days, the sect will hold a market where most of the people will participate. If you’re interested, you can go and check it out. You might encounter something you like.”
Lu Yang nodded. He had already heard about the internal object swap within the sect, which took the form of a market. Previously, Yun Zhi had been insistent on him focusing on cultivation, hence not allowing him to attend.
Now that Lu Yang had established his foundation and made some progress in cultivation, he needed not interfere more than necessary.
Every three months, the Seek Dao Sect would host a market where items would be bartered, brought by contribution points, and it included everything from food to entertainment.
The sect’s disciples would travel all around to complete their tasks, always encountering some local special products or novel items. Some decide to use them for themselves while others would take them to the market to exchange for items they needed.
“Also, Master is currently meditating. Don’t go to him recently.” Yun Zhi cautioned.
Lu Yang didn’t understand why she said that, but since he hadn’t planned to visit his Master and his Master would definitely appear in three days, he approved with “Oh”. Regardless, following Senior Sister’s instructions could never go wrong.
Three days later, as expected, the market took place. The Seek Dao Sect set up a fighting ring where disciples could freely duel.
The fighting ring was made from a special rock, indestructible. It was also enveloped in an Array Method to ensure that the effects of the fights would not impact the observers.
At this moment, two Senior Brothers at the Golden Core stage were fighting in the ring. Their golden cores were full and flawless, completely natural, making it a superior golden core that many in the outside world yearned for.
“Moon Slashing Chop!” A Golden Core stage Senior Brother shouted. His wide blade, like half a moon being driven by brute force, vertically chop down, causing Lu Yang’s eyes to twitch.
If Master Chu had had the strength of this Senior Brother back then, their danger would have been great.
The other Golden Core stage Senior Brother would not be outdone. His body radiated a golden glow and converted a thin layer of it to cover his body: “Buddhist Golden Body!”
The other Senior Brother, who had learned the Buddhist Golden Body and had apparently perfected it, managed to bear the strike head-on.
Both employed their sword skills and magic skills so fabulously, and ease of changing skills got Lu Yang’s undivided attention. He had a rare opportunity to wtiness a battle between top Golden Core stage powers.
In fact, Lu Yang had seen fights at even higher level before- the cultivation Great Powers battling against Immortals.
Unfortunately, Eldest Senior Sister was too aggressive and recently awakened Fairy Eternity was incapable of resisting, making it a one-sided fight and Lu Yang couldn’t learn anything from it.
“Fairy Eternity really can’t be depended on.” Lu Yang sighed. If he could learn one or half of Eldest Senior Sister’s skills, wouldn’t he be invincible among his peers?
“Wait, it seems like Eldest Senior Sister taught me Shrinking Ground Into Inches and Samadhi True Fire.”
“Kid, I advise you to watch your mouth! What do you mean ‘I can’t be depended on’!” A woman’s voice sounded in Lu Yang’s mind.
“Senior, you’ve woken up?” Lu Yang was surprised. Fairy Eternity had been asleep for several days, and she had finally awoken?
“The way you say ‘Senior’ is quite pleasant.” Fairy Eternity spoke in a relaxed way, making Lu Yang felt as though she was stretching.
“Let me tell you, right now I’in far from my full strength and need to slowly recover. Yun Zhi can only beat me now because of this. Once I get my strength back, she won’t even be able to defeat me with one hand.” Fairy Eternity spoke fiercely; she had enjoyed a high reputation in ancient times. How could she not beat a youngster?
Having thought it over, Lu Yang felt like Fairy Eternity made a solid point, “I’ll make sure to convey this to Eldest Senior Sister.”
“Wait, let’s not be hasty, we can talk things out.” Fairy Eternity’s tone softened instantly.
Lu Yang: “…Senior, are you reliable or not?”
He was supposed to be invincible having the essence of an ancient fairy in his body. Fortunes should have flowed to him constantly while he easily levelled up as if he was drinking water. No one at the same level could stand against him; even if he exceeded his own level, everything was still under his control.
However, Fairy Eternity’s displayed such a feeling of unreliability that holding onto Eldest Senior Sister’s thigh seemed much better.
“Humph. You think I’m who? I am Fairy Eternity Yellow Bean!”
“Wiry do I remember you referring to yourself as ‘this seat’ before?” Lu Yang still remembered the time when Fairy Eternity acted high and mighty.
Fairy Eternity paused and then said: “This seat is Fairy Eternity Yellow Bean… no wait, referring to oneself as ‘this seat’ is too awkward.”
Fairy Eternity explained: “Mainly, I heard other people say that calling oneself ‘this seat’ seems very powerful. Having just awoken, my mind was not clear, so I wanted to see what it felt like. Now I find it too awkward and better to refer to myself as ‘me’.”
Lu Yang curiously asked, “Who did you hear this from?”
“From those at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage or Immortals. It’s very rare for those who’ve reached the highest realm of cultivation to resort to fighting. How can they know who is strong and who is weak without fighting? So someone started to speak in a very arrogant way to intimidate others.”
“Everyone found this way of speaking very good, and sentences likes ‘This seat has been born in response to the heavens’, ‘Whoever doesn’t heed this fairy will be beheaded’, ‘How dare you, a mere mortal, defy a fairy’ and ‘This seat holds powerful forces in my body, do not force this seat to break the seal’ started being used.”
“I’m trying to remember who started it… ah right, it was Yingtian Immortal!”
“I felt the way they spoke was interesting at that time, so I had put down everything they said into a booklet called “Quotes of the Immortals”. I have no idea where that book is now.”
Lu Yang: “…”
He felt that he found the reason why Fairy Eternity had been backstabbed by others.
“Let me show you some of the skills of an Immortal, lest you think I’ve just muddled my way through.” Fairy Eternity felt the need to display her actual strength to make Lu Yang perceive her in a high light and show respect for her.
“Let me gain control of your body and experience the feeling of defeating someone of a higher level.”.
This was Seek Dao Sect’s territory, Lu Yang wasn’t afraid that Fairy Eternity would seize the opportunity to possess him, so he voluntarily relinquished control of his body.
At this moment, the fighting ring was empty. Fairy Eternity, controlling Lu’s body, went up to the stage, and addressed the crowd: “Esteemed friends and brave warriors, I’ve had some insights into my cultivation today. Is there any fellow Golden Core Stage Early Junior here I can spar and learn from?”
“It’s common among the geniuses of the ancient times to challenge everyone publicly and etch their legendary name with their fists, laying a strong foundation for their invincible future. Let me show you today. Learn well!” Fairy Eternity commented to Lu Yang.
“I’m in!” A bald Senior Brother jumped onto the stage, his whole body radiating a merit-golden light.
Fairy Eternity drew a sharp breath, and recognized the monk: he had a top quality golden core, a blessing merit, his body protected by an Arhat and had made small progress in the Immeasurable Golden Body. She was going to pit her head against that?
“Let’s… let’s switch.”
The bald Senior Brother didn’t take offence, he just hopped off the stage cheerfully whilst another Confucian cultivator Senior Brother hopped on.
The Confucian cultivator Senior Brother was dressed in grey robes, and held a bamboo book in his hand, wearing a composed smile.
Fairy Eternity froze again; he naturally had a Confucian temperament, was blessed by a Great Power, with a heavenly constitution in his mouth and held a treasure. How was she supposed to fight this?
“Let’s switch again!” Fairy Eternity gritted her teeth and said.
“I’ll go.” As the Confucian cultivator Senior Brother yielded the stage, a homely and chubby Senior Brother hopped on.
At a glance, Fairy Eternity noticed the elder brother’s golden core was ripe and of top quality. He was also protected by a good fortune merit, and a body of pure bloodline. His cultivation method was top tier, and it had absolutely no flaw.
Only then did Fairy Eternity realized she could not beat any of the Golden Core Stage cultivators present.
