Who Let Him Cultivate?! (WX)-Chapter 193: Fusion!

To develop his own cultivation techniques, Lu Yang had spent several months studying on the first floor of the scripture library. Apart from the Comprehensive Xiangsheng Comedy Compendium, the books contained numerous cultivation techniques and spells that broadened his horizons.

For instance, a cultivation technique could reveal one’s location to another party when one cultivated it. Records indicated that a pair of married cultivators wrote it to monitor each other's whereabouts. Then, the husband discovered that his wife often went to brothels, and the wife also discovered that her husband often went to brothels.

Other than this cultivation technique, Lu Yang also came across a cultivation technique for sleeping with one’s eyes open, which would be especially useful during lessons.

There was also a cultivation technique that could make oneself very ugly, though Lu Yang still hadn’t figured out what purpose such a technique could serve.

Another cultivation technique for winter hibernation was modeled after animals, allowing one to eat and sleep for an entire season. Lu Yang still couldn’t fathom how it could come in useful.

Later, Lu Yang finally understood. This is how the senior brothers and sisters rack up their contribution points.

By submitting cultivation techniques without a backup to the Great Mission Hall, one could earn contribution points. Yun Zhi used to only take on this mission, forcing the Great Mission Hall to set up a new column for her. She no longer had to submit her cultivation techniques every single time. Once she had finished writing them, she could just place them in the scripture library and use contribution points however she wished.

Other senior disciples lacked Yun Zhi’s level of capability, yet they still desired contribution points. As a result, the scripture library contained numerous techniques that seemed impressive but were ultimately worthless.

Lu Yang suspected that if he were to also write such cultivation techniques, Yun Zhi would likely hang him up and give him a beating.

Oh, she probably doesn’t even need to do it herself. The puppet can do the job.

“Six Directions Eight Corners Immortal Art?” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy seemed to have been reminded of something when she heard the name Lu Yang had randomly fabricated.

“The name sounds very similar to the Nine-Layers Immortal’s cultivation technique!”

“Nine-Layers Immortal?” Lu Yang repeated; the Everlasting Immortal Fairy hardly mentioned this immortal. He had only learned from her that the Nine-Layers Immortal possessed a celestial physique and was the first among the five ancient immortals to ascend to an immortal.

Lu Yang was puzzled. “What was his cultivation technique called?”

Yun Zhi was also intrigued, which was a rare occurrence. She put down her book and waited for the Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s reply.

“The Nine-Layers Immortal also wrote his own cultivation technique, and he named it Primal Chaos, One Qi, Two Origins,[1] Four Divisions,[2] Six Directions, Eight Corners, Nine Lands, Ten Heavens, Only I Reign Supreme Immortal Art.

“I usually just call his cultivation technique Numbers Immortal Art. Sometimes people also call it the Four Six Immortal Art, Eight Ten Immortal Art, or they’ll just go with whatever sounds pleasant. In any case, the Nine-Layers Immortal himself can’t even remember the full name of his own cultivation technique.

Lu Yang, “...”

Does the Nine-Layers Immortal have some obsession with numbers?

Yun Zhi was also somewhat speechless. Originally, she had hoped to deduce the other party’s strengths and weaknesses based on the name of their cultivation technique. However, it now seemed like she had been overly optimistic.

While Lu Yang was listening to ancient tales inside his mental space and going around killing people with Meng Jingzhou and Man Gu outside, he suddenly heard the Flying Swallow’s shout.

“Lu Yang, Meng Jingzhou, and Man Gu are in cahoots!” The Flying Swallow had done it on purpose. The pressure from Lu Yang and the other two was too much for him. No matter how strong I am, I won’t be able to defeat these powerful and devious bastards. I must rally everyone’s strength to get rid of these three. That’s the only way I have a chance to win!

“We’re exposed this early?” Meng Jingzhou had thought it would take a while more; he didn’t have enough fun yet.

The trio opened their palms to check on their numbers. Even the lowest among them, Man Gu, had 350 points, to say nothing of Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou. They were unrivaled devils killing people like flies.

Man Gu asked, “What do we do now? Fight or run?”

“Let’s just run. Based solely on our scores, we already occupy the top three positions; now all that's left is to wait for the competition to end,” Meng Jingzhou suggested. Despite being a descendant of the Meng Family’s main branch, he felt no shame in saying the word “run.”

This was a result of his father’s training. When Meng Jingzhou was young and mischievous, his father had herded them like ducks.

“They’re here!” Someone left a cave and saw the trio. These three are indeed in cahoots! If Flying Swallow hadn’t grown suspicious, no one would have noticed!

This is such a disgrace! As diabolic cultivators, we have always been the ones deceiving others. Since when has it been our turn to get deceived? And we were even completely duped and wrapped around their fingers! My cultivation journey will not go smoothly if I don’t kill these three to vent my anger!

“Time to run~” Meng Jingzhou chirped happily as he took the lead.

“After them!”

“They’re here!”

“Kill them!”

Diabolic cultivators usually fought alone and rarely acted in groups. This large-scale operation of diabolic cultivators was all the more unprecedented.

But now, they were united—bent on capturing the trio!

~~~

When the higher-ups of the Everlasting Creed saw the scene unfold, they couldn’t help but click their tongues in amazement. Even they didn’t wield such influence in commanding the masses.

The creed leader secretly nodded. These three are naturally suited to go undercover in the Dao-Seeking Sect. However, he then found it regretful that the other two vice creed leaders were incompetent to have let such pivotal pawns leave the Dao-Seeking Sect.

~~~

Lu Yang told Meng Jingzhou, “If they really catch up with us, you’ll be the bait.”

“Why me? You came up with all these layers of schemes. You go!”

“I was the one who came up with ideas, and you added the details. You’re more important than me, so you go!”

“The ideas are more important than the details. You go!”

The two kept modestly declined each other, encouraging the other party to be the bait. All this time, Man Gu watched by the side, finding no chance to interject.

I’m just an actor.

“I’ve caught up with them!” Someone with excellent tracking abilities and light footwork was about to touch the hem of Lu Yang’s clothes.

Right then, an invisible attack struck the person. Unable to dodge in time, they were sent flying, a large dent forming in their chest. Before his eyes closed, he saw that his original spot was empty except for a talisman hovering in the air.

“What’s that?”

The talisman seemed to have a consciousness of its own as it floated around, knocking away all the contestants who tried to approach the trio.

Finally, someone saw what kind of talisman it was. “It’s an Invisibility Talisman! These three have help!”

This Invisibility Talisman was drawn by Lu Yang. Its effect was so great that even those with keen senses couldn’t detect anyone in invisibility mode.

The person who hollered soon realized that something was wrong. Whose Invisibility Talisman only conceals the person but leaves the talisman visible?

Lu Yang yelled at the Invisibility Talisman. “Flying Swallow, quickly beat them to death!”

“Flying Swallow is in this with them too?!” The crowd was astonished. Could Flying Swallow’s discovery of the trio’s scheme be a part of the trap too?

The real Flying Swallow was fuming as he watched in safety by the sidelines. I’m at least eighty zhang away! How can the person with the Invisibility Talisman be me?!

“I know! The one with the Invisibility Talisman is your clone!” Flying Swallow suddenly remembered that Lu Yang could create wooden clones.

An astute person with deft hands swiftly removed the Invisibility Talisman, revealing the true identity of the person behind it.

It was a bald Lu Yang—the Bodhi tree clone!

Lu Yang’s Invisibility Talisman could only conceal the person but not the clothing. Since his wooden clone only used tree leaves as cover, they were considered part of the wooden clone.

In other words, the wooden clone was not wearing clothes—perfect for Lu Yang’s Invisibility Talisman!

The Bodhi tree clone wore a leaf garment, resembling someone from the wild. Lu Yang made the clone explode, releasing poisonous gas.

Having anticipated this, Flying Swallow summoned a north wind to blow away the poisonous gas.

“Kill!”

The trio was surrounded. Countless weapons were thrown at them, determined to pierce them until they became hedgehogs, while some directly tried to kill them. There was no blind spot among the attacks, and there was no way they could defend themselves!

Lu Yang sighed. “Now that things have come to this, fusion is the only way left.”

The trio exchanged glances with one another, resolution settling in their eyes. We’re going to fuse and fight!

“Fusion?” Although Flying Swallow didn’t know how they intended to fuse, that didn’t stop him from having an ominous feeling.

“Don’t let your guard down! They’re going to fuse!” Flying Swallow shouted to warn everyone.

Even the higher-ups of the Everlasting Creed were completely bewildered. We’ve never heard that cultivators can fuse together?

As Man Gu let out a loud roar, his muscles swelled. With his left hand, he grabbed Meng Jingzhou’s ankle, and with his right, he seized Lu Yang’s ankle.

Meng Jingzhou activated the cultivation technique, his body emitting a faint golden glow that grew incredibly tough.

Lu Yang clasped his hands together above his head, and sword qi enveloped him.

The three of them fused together!

Flying Swallow, “...?”
