Who Let Him Cultivate?!-Chapter 646 - 645
"If you want to increase deterrence, you can also do this!"
Huo Ying displayed its might once again, and Li Haoran’s body and head were coated with a layer of flames. If he were to suddenly appear at night, he could make a bunch of people cry in fright.
Lu Yang seriously contemplated the uses of Li Haoran’s Nascent Soul.
"If the body is completely disassembled, there will be six parts attacking. If controlled properly, the enemy will face attacks from six directions, making it hard to defend against."
"If only the head flies out, with the remaining body forming a headless corpse to attack, it would be first-rate in saving one’s skin."
"Senior Brother Lu, I have more than just this one way to save my skin!" Hearing Lu Yang’s analysis, Li Haoran burst into laughter.
"Unify!"
His head reattached to his neck without a single flaw, showing no indication that just a second earlier, he had been in a headless corpse form.
"Come on, Senior Brother Lu, attack me!"
Lu Yang didn’t hold back. His two fingers came together, and he directed an invisible Sword Qi at Li Haoran.
With a slight shake of his body, Li Haoran’s right arm detached, and the invisible Sword Qi flew between his torso and right arm.
"How about that?" Li Haoran reattached his right arm, spun around, and his body was unharmed, intact.
"Interesting, what if it’s like this?"
Lu Yang didn’t give Li Haoran time to react, striking out over ten Sword Qis in quick succession—a barrage Li Haoran definitely couldn’t dodge with his dismemberment trick!
Li Haoran’s expression changed, as his reaction speed truly wasn’t quick enough to dodge so many Sword Qis.
However, he soon revealed a slight smile.
It wasn’t without a solution.
He took off his head, held it by the hair, swung his arm around, and with a swish, he threw his head out.
Thump thump thump thump.
Li Haoran’s body solidly withstood all the Sword Qis, while his head turned into a streak of light and fled far away—if the Sword Qis had been a certain death attack, he could use this method to escape with his life.
Lu Yang couldn’t help but applaud. This Red Child’s Nascent Soul was indeed useful and versatile, all depending on one’s imagination.
Not long after, Li Haoran’s head flew back, reuniting with his body, restored as before.
"Hiss, Senior Brother Lu, you really don’t hold back."
Upon reuniting with his body, Li Haoran felt the pain from the Sword Qi wounds.
Meng Jingzhou watched Li Haoran’s Huo Ying and fell into deep thought. His own Nascent Soul could transform into three heads and six arms, but could Junior Brother Li’s Nascent Soul allow his three heads and six arms to fly everywhere?
Unlike Li Haoran, who used magic skills as his means of attack, he was a Body Cultivator, heavily relying on the integrity of his body. Breaking his body apart to strike the enemy was nowhere near as powerful as assuming a stance and throwing a couple of punches...
"Wait a minute, it actually could be done..."
Suddenly, Meng Jingzhou had an idea and approached Li Haoran.
"Junior Brother Li, I’d like to discuss something with you. I have some insights about cultivating at the Nascent Soul Stage and need your cooperation."
"What insights?"
"My physique is a bit special, I can borrow other people’s Nascent Souls. Here is a cultivation technique for you to study—it would enable you to lend me your Nascent Soul."
Li Haoran had an odd look on his face; it was the first time he had heard that Nascent Souls could be borrowed.
Could it be that the Meng Family didn’t just lend money, but also Nascent Souls?
"I’ll study it."
Li Haoran quickly learned the cultivation technique Meng Jingzhou handed over—a mere sheet of paper, extremely simple, faster even than learning Man Gu.
The two sat cross-legged, resonating with each other. Huo Ying flew out of Li Haoran’s body and into Meng Jingzhou’s Dantian.
Meng Jingzhou felt the power of Huo Ying, a force only present in the stage of three Nascent Souls, extraordinary and peerless.
He let out a loud shout, initiating the process of Nascent Soul Unification, and once again became a divine being with four heads and eight arms.
Next, Meng Jingzhou severed four of his arms, allowing the remaining four arms to hold them. This transformed him into a divine being with four heads and four arms, as well as four weapons!
Meng Jingzhou "ha" and "heied" as he swung the detached arms, whipping up a wind, using them as if they were the most suitable weapons for him, perfect and natural.
"Success!"
Li Haoran watched, the corners of his eyes twitching slightly, feeling that Senior Brother Meng resembled not so much a cultivator of the Righteous Path, but more like a leader of the Demon Path.
Eldest Senior Sister, who had kept silent until now, spoke up. Her voice was soft, yet it carried the power to quiet the entire scene, "Junior Brother Li, we’ve just returned from the Jiuyou Sect. They shared with us the origins of their sect. Do you have memories regarding this part?"
As soon as it came to serious business, Meng Jingzhou promptly returned the Nascent Soul to Li Haoran.
Hearing about the origins of the Jiuyou Sect, Li Haoran paused, then nodded sincerely, "Indeed, but it’s not very complete."
"Qin Haoran said to Senior Yi Ren that he was in his eighth Reincarnation, and I am in the ninth."
"The reason he could ascertain he was in his eighth lifetime was because he carried the memories of his previous seven lives."
"However, I have not yet fully inherited Qin Haoran’s memories, they are intermittent regarding the earlier lives."
"But, it does not matter."
Li Haoran nodded, sifting through the vast memories of Qin Haoran for relevant information.
Qin Haoran possessed nearly two thousand years of memories, a voluminous quantity that Li Haoran could not bear. In order not to lose himself in the sea of memories, Li Haoran asked his master to seal away those memories, to be unsealed only when needed, bit by bit.
"The memories from my first three lives are quite vague, I can’t recall what happened."
"About eighty thousand years ago, in my fourth life, due to a fortunate coincidence, ’I’ awakened, gaining some past life memories. From those memories, ’I’ learned about cultivation and embarked on the path of cultivation."
"As the cultivation level increased, other parts of the memories from the first three lives surfaced, such as ’Nine Nether’ and ’Reincarnation,’ something Mu Baiyi should have already discussed with you." Experience tales with novelbuddy
"Relying on the fragmented memories of the past lives, the fourth life established the Jiuyou Sect to delve into the true meaning of Reincarnation."

"Of course, nothing substantial was gained, and to add insult to injury, the sect’s den was raided by two constables. Because he was a man of great integrity, allowing his subordinates to flee while he covered for them, he failed to escape and was caught and sentenced to life imprisonment."
"In the fifth life, I reincarnated in the Buddha Country and renounced worldly desires to become a nun. Then, I fell in love with the abbot of the neighboring temple, and we both left our orders to marry under the witness of Buddha."
"In the sixth life, I joined the Jiuyou Sect, and relying on past life memories, rose to the position of Master. Driven by greed for the sect’s wealth, which I appropriated for myself, failing to pay the monthly dues on time, I was assassinated."
"The seventh life was that of a woman, who served as a palace maid, engaging in daily scheming and intrigue within the royal harem." At this point, Li Haoran’s expression turned somewhat ugly, as he recalled some unpleasant matters.
"The eighth life, you all know him, was that scoundrel Qin Haoran, who also had the highest cultivation level. He wanted to Pass Thunder Tribulation to advance to the Transcendence Tribulation Stage to dodge his debtors and ended up struck dead by lightning."
"The ninth life is me."
Such were the tumultuous lives I’ve led.
Eldest Senior Sister, having listened to the tale, asked calmly, "The fourth life came into being eighty thousand years ago, and after Qin Haoran died, he immediately reincarnated as you. This means that there was not an immediate reincarnation from the fourth life to the fifth, there was a gap in time, correct?"
Li Haoran nodded, "Yes, the further back, the longer the temporal gap between lives, but in my case, there was no gap."
"Based on this timeline, your first three lives weren’t part of Great Xia, but rather belonged to Great Yu or Great Qian, right?"
"That would be correct."
Eldest Senior Sister continued, "The decreasing gap between reincarnations, leading up to no gap at all, may be a kind of countdown or a method of accumulation. This life might be your last, or perhaps something will happen in the tenth after you die."
"Indeed."
After some thought, Eldest Senior Sister turned to ask Jiang Lianyi, "I’m fine now, Senior Jiang, do you have any questions?"
Jiang Lianyi nodded, "Could you elaborate on your experiences of scheming and plotting in the royal harem?"
"...I cannot."
"Then I have no further questions either."
