Who Let Him Cultivate?! (WX)-Chapter 150: That Bastard Heaven Mandate Immortal
Chapter 150: That Bastard Heaven Mandate Immortal
Unfortunately, some of the natural treasures had lost their medicinal properties due to improper storage and were now reduced to ordinary goods, while some were no longer as valuable due to time. For instance, the Blissful Union Powder had expired. The Dragon Transformation Grass was another example. Two thousand years ago, the Dragon Tribe had found a stable way to grow it, causing its price to plummet.

“They still have archaeological and commemorative value. We can sell it to the Dragon Tribe’s museum,” Yun Zhi murmured. It’s rare to have wild Dragon Transformation Grass so well-preserved. I didn’t see a wild Dragon Transformation Grass when I visited the Dragon Tribe’s museum.
Huang Doudou scoffed, “These junk? Back when I was alive, I wouldn’t even bother picking these things from the ground! Wait until you find my treasure trove. I’ll show you what real treasures look like!”
Lu Yang rolled his eyes, pretending he didn’t hear the Everlasting Immortal Fairy as he continued rummaging through the treasures with Yun Zhi.
The Everlasting Immortal Fairy stomped her foot angrily. Back in ancient times, countless cultivators lost their entire fortune just for a chance to meet me and hear me say a few words! What I say are immortal words that can benefit people for a lifetime!
This boy really doesn’t know what’s good for him. Hmph, I shall ignore him!
Suddenly, Lu Yang uncovered a thick book that was packaged exquisitely and soft to the touch, clearly not an ordinary item. Perhaps this thick book was really not ordinary, for the Blood Devil Venerable Lord had even specially left a note on the book’s origins.
Lu Yang read out loud, “I acquired this book on immortal spells from a black-market stall. According to the stall owner, its origins, material, and contents are unknown. What is certain is that it is sealed by a powerful array and is an item from ancient times.
“I laughed at the vendor's ignorance and for not recognizing the treasure he possessed. Opening my heavenly eye, I spotted the word ‘immortal’ below the seal. This is not just an ancient item but an item belonging to one of the four ancient immortals. Since this book was written by an immortal, it could likely be the immortal spells in the legends!
“Alas, the ancient seal was formidable. Despite dedicating my whole life to it, I still could not open it.”
Lu Yang exclaimed, “Immortal spells!” His heart raced. I didn’t expect the legendary immortal spells to be hidden here! What a fortuitous opportunity! What’s more, this is such a thick book. It either contains an overly complex immortal spell or several immortal spells. Regardless of which, this book is extremely valuable!
He tried to open the book but was unable to do so, just like the Blood Devil Venerable Lord.
“Hmm? This thing looks familiar.” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s strong willpower had enabled her to ignore Lu Yang for a full twenty seconds.
“Have you seen this before, Immortal Fairy? Can you open the seal?” Lu Yang asked.
“Of course, this kind of small seal can be broken with a finger.”
Following the Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s instructions, Lu Yang carefully infused his spirit energy inside, and the seal really did come undone.
He restrained his excitement and opened the ancient text. The bottom right corner had the author’s name written—Heaven Mandate Immortal.
It’s really written by an immortal! Lu Yang was delighted. The Heaven Mandate Immortal must be a reliable immortal. If the four other ancient immortals were like the Everlasting Immortal Fairy, wouldn’t the ancient era have been doomed?
Shifting his eyes upward, he saw the book’s title—Comprehensive Culinary Compendium.
“Huh?” Lu Yang flipped through a few pages and found that the contents matched the title exactly—it was a detailed guide on how to cook myriad demon beats.
To hell with your damn immortal spells! Heaven Mandate Immortal, you’re not reliable at all! Why do you have to put a seal on something like this? What, are you afraid that the human race will cause the demon beasts to go extinct by eating them?
At this point, the Everlasting Immortal Fairy had also sensed that something was wrong and knitted her brows. “Wait a minute, I have eaten all kinds of demon beasts out there and compiled my culinary experiences into a book. It’s supposed to be my proud work. How did it become the Heaven Mandate Immortal’s?” She gnashed her teeth. “That bastard Heaven Mandate Immortal stole my work after I died?”
“So you were the one who wrote it. That makes a lot more sense.” Lu Yang finally rationalized everything.
“What did you say?” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s expression looked like the lull before a storm.
“Ah, no, I meant that the Heaven Mandate Immortal must have had a lot of time on his hands to write his name on a book like this.”
The Everlasting Immortal Fairy felt that Lu Yang was severely underestimating her. “Kid, you don’t have a discerning eye, belittling my work like that. If you can master this book of mine, you can become a Transcendent Tribulation spirit chef. There will be no lack of people outside fighting over this book. It’ll be utter chaos and madness!
“When I cooked for the other four back then, they felt unworthy to partake of my food. They would come up with all sorts of excuses and didn’t dare to come over!”
“Are you sure it’s not because your cooking was awful?”
“Nonsense! The food I made radiated golden light. How could it be awful?!”
As the human and immortal bickered, they circled back to the matter of the Heaven Mandate Immortal and couldn’t reach a consensus even after half a day. Lu Yang informed Yun Zhi about it, but she simply frowned and made no comments.
On the other hand, Meng Jingzhou had discovered some cultivation techniques. Although some were lost to time and some had been modified, it was overall a satisfactory outcome.
When Yun Zhi was sifting through the treasures, she suddenly revealed an astounded expression. “This is the cultivation takeaways of someone with the Immaculate Celestial Physique?” I didn’t expect to find something like this here, and it even belongs to a Basic Fusion cultivator at that.
Cultivation insights of those with celestial physiques were rare, and cultivation insights suited for the Dao-Seeking Sect were even rarer.
Lu Yang asked inside his mental space, “Immortal Fairy, did you have celestial physiques in your time? Can they become immortals?”
From what Lu Yang knew, there were twenty types of celestial physiques in the world. They were constitutions even rarer than Single Spirit Roots. Whenever a cultivator with a celestial physique advances to the Fusion Stage, they would automatically develop “Rules” with terrifying and unpredictable power that would be difficult to defend against.
He had heard that there were two people in the Dao-Seeking Sect with celestial physiques—Tao Yaoye and her shifu, Sixth Elder. Tao Yaoye had a Metamorphic Celestial Physique while Sixth Elder had an Immaculate Celestial Physique.
Huang Doudou was still seething over “the shameless Heaven Mandate Immortal stealing her intellectual property,” but her fury dissipated quickly. I, Huang Doudou, am a magnanimous person.
She shifted her attention upon hearing Lu Yang’s question. “Celestial physique? We had them back in my era. The history of celestial physiques goes back much further than you can imagine.
“The concept of celestial physiques can be traced back to the most ancient era. At that time, humans still didn’t know how to cultivate and could only rely on trial and error. Foundation Establishment, Nascent Soul, and Divine Transfiguration were attained by relying on the special characteristics of celestial physiques.
“I only know of one immortal with a celestial physique, and that was the Nine-Layers Immortal. He was a formidable opponent with strength comparable to mine!” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s expression grew solemn at the mention of the Nine-Layers Immortal, acknowledging his power.
“The Nine-Layers Immortal was the first to become an immortal among us. According to him, his celestial physique played a significant role in helping him ascend to an immortal!”
Lu Yang sneakily asked, “So, does Big Senior Sister have a celestial physique? What exactly is her cultivation level?”
The Everlasting Immortal Fairy giggled. “Guess.”
Lu Yang’s face darkened. How am I supposed to guess?
“Lu Yang, when you return to the sect, hand this cultivation record to Sixth Elder. The insights fit her best.”

And thus, the three returned to the Dao-Seeking Sect with a substantial harvest.
Yun Zhi went to Incarceration Peak to interrogate the Blood Devil Venerable Lord, Meng Jingzhou returned to the Physique Refinement Peak to train, while Lu Yang headed to Speckless Peak to pass the book on cultivation insights to Sixth Elder.
