Who Let Him Cultivate?! (WX)-Chapter 242: Lu Yang, I Want to Go Out and Play

Arhat Fist was one of the supreme fist techniques of the Golden Buddhist Kingdom. When cultivated to its pinnacle, one could attain the Arhat Fruit Realm. However, this purely existed in theory; Lu Yang had never heard of anyone mastering such a technique.

Arhat Fruit Fist was a fist technique invented by an immortal. Judging by the name, it seemed related to the Arhat Fruit Realm, differing by just one word, and its effects included clearing heat, moistening the lungs, easing the throat, and enhancing one’s voice.

Judging by the origins, the Arhat Fruit Fist was definitely the superior one.

But the problem is that this was invented by the Everlasting Immortal Fairy.

“There’s no need to practice this. Just from the name, I can already guess what this fist technique is for.”

“Hey hey hey, what kind of look is that? I am the creator of the Arhat Fruit Fist, so it’s a legitimate immortal-tier fist technique. That Arhat Fist isn’t even worthy to be compared to my fist technique!” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy stomped her foot, feeling that Lu Yang was underestimating her.

“It’s not that I’m underestimating you, but the name of your fist technique...I don’t really have words for it... It doesn’t sound formidable at all.”

“What do you know? Are you learning fist techniques just for showing off and fighting with others? No, the most important thing about fist techniques is Yangsheng—health maintenance.” [1]

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy educated Lu Yang to correct his misconceptions. “Isn’t the purpose of cultivation to live better? And what’s most important for a better life? It’s the body.

“To achieve that end, I specifically invented health maintenance fist techniques, including Arhat Fruit Fist, which clears heat and benefits the lungs and throat, as well as Fennel Seed Fist, which dispels cold, relieves pain, rectifies qi, and harmonizes the stomach. There are more than a thousand types in total.

“If you nourish your body properly, what will hinder you from becoming an arhat? If you can master these thousand sets of fist techniques and integrate them, you will be able to learn my supreme fist technique—Immortal Fairy Fist Technique!”

Immortal Fairy Fist Technique was what the Everlasting Immortal Fairy had used to beat up the Everlasting Immortal. Its power was astounding, pummeling the Everlasting Immortal until he scurried away while clutching his head.

“So, what do you think? Wanna learn?” It’s about time to showcase some of my skills to Lu Yang, lest he keep wondering whether my becoming an immortal was a fluke.

I’m the leader of the Five Ancient Immortals. How could it have been a fluke?

“Not interested at all,” Lu Yang flatly declined.

In the real world, Old Turtle had just crawled out of the lake, still dizzy from the blow. One punch already contained so much power. If they had gone all out, I’m afraid few Golden Core cultivators would be able to defeat them. The other person has yet to make a move, but their combat prowess should not be inferior to that of Junior Meng.

Which faction produced these geniuses?

Old Turtle no longer held them back, agreeing to assist them with finding opponents. He broke off a tree branch and began drawing on the soft soil, starting with an irregular oval. “This is our current position, by the small lake. Ten li south of here is a black panther with a white spot on its forehead. It’s extremely ferocious and carries an ancient bloodline. Although it is at the Basic Golden Core Stage, even Intermediate Golden Core cultivators would suffer when fighting with it.

“Further south of the black panther is a pack of Moon Shadow Wolves. Most of them are at the Advanced Foundation Establishment Stage, while the wolf king is at the Apex Basic Golden Core Stage. They never act alone. If you encounter one Moon Shadow Wolf, it indicates that a whole pack is hiding nearby. You have to be very cautious.

“Toward the east is...

“Toward the west is...”

True to its status as one of the five hegemons ruling the lake, Old Turtle held considerable intelligence. “Little Eagle and the others know the exact locations; they can take you there.” He still needed to guard the small lake, worried that if he was gone for half a month, his territory would be cleanly divided up by the other four Half-Step Golden Core overlords. It’s not easy to have a small lake as my territory in the jungle.

“These demon beasts with fixed territories are still manageable since you know what to expect. What you really need to watch out for are the nomadic ones. They are extremely cunning and can even transform into human form. They love ambushing and hunting you humans. I’ve seen no fewer than fifty people die under the fangs of such demon beasts.”

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou thanked the Old Turtle and set off with the Eagle Mountain Five Heroes toward the black panther’s territory.

“Lu Yang, Lu Yang, can we discuss something?” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s tone contained a rare trace of cajolery.

“What is it?”

“How many days do you plan on staying in the jungle?”

“At least five days,” Lu Yang calculated. I have to fight various demon beasts and battle during the night; the training results won’t show if it’s too short a time.

He and Meng Jingzhou planned to battle nonstop in the jungle to improve their combat experience and consolidate their cultivation. If they could find an opportunity to form their Golden Core, that would be even better.

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy counted with her fingers. “Look, I stay in the mental space all day long. Apart from eating and sleeping, all I do is watch you fight. It’s quite boring. It’s said that the meaning of life lies in moving about. Don’t you think I should go out and explore a bit?”

“So, Immortal Fairy, what you want is...”

“Let me use a Bodhi tree clone,” the Everlasting Immortal Fairy requested with a fawning smile. “Of course, if you really don’t want to give me one, there’s nothing I can do. But it would be amazing if you could!”

Seeing the Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s hesitant yet expectant visage, Lu Yang couldn’t help but chuckle.

“What are you laughing at?!”

“Nothing, nothing.” Lu Yang tried his best to put on a solemn expression. “I can give you a Bodhi tree clone, but you have to behave in the jungle and not cause any big trouble. Also, you must come back before Meng Jingzhou and I return to the city.”

“No problem at all!” the Everlasting Immortal Fairy vowed. “My immortal consciousness has a massive range; I can find you anytime.”

“That’s good then.”

In the real world, Lu Yang had suddenly stopped walking.

“What’s the matter?” Meng Jingzhou and the Eagle Mountain Five Heroes were bewildered, thinking Lu Yang had sensed some kind of danger.

“Nothing much. I just want to send a clone to explore other parts of the jungle.”

“Clone?” The Eagle Mountain Five Heroes exchanged glances in confusion. Only Meng Jingzhou understood what was going on.

Pinching a Bodhi tree seed, Lu Yang shrank into the earth and cast the Tree-Planting Mantra. A Bodhi tree sprouted from the ground, bearing two Lu Yangs. After both Lu Yangs broke free from the Bodhi tree, the original remained in place, while the Everlasting Immortal Fairy took over the clone and took to her heels, just like the description of the legendary Ginseng Fruit—vanishing the instant it hit the ground.

The Eagle Mountain Five Heroes were dumbfounded, their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets and their mouths agape for a long while.

“C-clone?!” Never mind Foundation Establishment cultivators; even we Golden Core cultivators have never heard of anyone capable of this technique.

“It's just an unpresentable minor spell not worth mentioning.” Lu Yang deliberately displayed a modest expression, earning the admiration of the Eagle Mountain Five Heroes.

“Young Hero Lu, can you control this clone of yours?”

Lu Yang waved his hand. “No need for that. The clone can act on its own.”

“Then your clone better be careful. I heard that some cultivators like to ambush lone cultivators. Quite a few have gone missing.”

“That...that shouldn’t happen, right?” At the thought of the Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s simple-minded countenance, Lu Yang suddenly felt uneasy.
