Who Let Him Cultivate?! (WX)-Chapter 259: Activating the Ancient Barbarian Bloodline

The four ancient immortals had visited the Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s immortal estate many times at her invitation, enjoying rare and exquisite delicacies.

Due to the Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s unique way of cooking, she held extremely high standards for her food and utensils, including chopsticks, bowls, and tablecloths. Each had survived countless tribulations and remained intact, standing both the test of time and the world. They were, without a doubt, precious beyond measure, having inevitably absorbed the aura of the five immortals.

“This also indirectly reflects how invincible we five ancient immortals were. By just sitting around, the tableware could absorb our auras and persist for over three hundred thousand years!” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy tooted her own horn ardently. Perhaps it was simply because she was in a brightened mood from encountering an old item of hers.

Lu Yang, “...”

On second thought, it’s not so bad after all. Obtaining an immortal’s item for four thousand spirit stones is quite the bargain. Besides, this cloth can’t be damaged; it’s certainly a great item.

“Unfortunately, you can’t use this cloth,” the Everlasting Immortal Fairy said regretfully, causing Lu Yang to choke on his saliva.

“Why’s that?”

“I have refined this tablecloth before. Even if I die, the effects of its refinement won’t disappear, so only I can use it.”

“So you’re saying I spent four thousand spirit stones and requested Junior Sister Tao to bid for this just to buy you a tablecloth?”

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy said sincerely, “Second-In-Command, I will remember your favor.”

In the real world, after Tao Yaoye handed Lu Yang the red silk, she saw his expression shift from excitement to disappointment, then ignited with hope before it extinguished, featuring a rich assortment of emotions.

“Senior Brother Lu, is anything the matter?”

Lu Yang sighed. “It’s nothing. I was suckered into having more money than sense.” As he spoke, he tried to put away the tablecloth into his identity jade pendant.

He failed.

“Immortal Fairy, could you please let your tablecloth enter my identity jade pendant?”

“Oh.” Since the tablecloth belonged to the Everlasting Immortal Fairy, it couldn’t be directly stowed away in Lu Yang’s identity jade pendant.

After the attendant gave Meng Jingzhou the spirit stones from the auctioned Twin Lotus Flower, he handed over three talismans, each stored in a jade box. These were Divine Transfiguration Targeted Teleportation Talismans with sundry uses, including allowing one to escape from a Divine Transfiguration demon beast’s attack or sending the demon beast to the Demon Suppression Gate to meet its demise.

“Let’s go. It’s time for our training in the jungle,” Lu Yang beckoned to the others.

The four hadn’t forgotten their purpose for coming here. They set off and headed straight into the jungle.

This time, the Eagle Mountain Five Heroes didn’t follow along.

Lu Yang had discussed with them and learned that most of the Basic Golden Core demon beasts on the outer edge of the jungle posed no threat to Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou. If they wanted to achieve their true training goals, however, they would need to venture deeper inward into areas populated by Advanced Golden Core demon beasts. In that case, the Eagle Mountain Five Heroes’ cultivation wasn’t sufficient to ensure their own safety. Moreover, since they had been active only on the outskirts, they knew little about the deeper parts of the jungle and would be of limited help.

“Senior Brother Lu, aren’t we being too hasty by jumping straight into fighting Advanced Golden Core demon beasts? Shouldn’t we start with Advanced Foundation Establishment ones?” Tao Yaoye was slightly concerned. Man Gu and I have just reached the Advanced Foundation Establishment Stage. We should progress steadily and begin battling with those of the same level.

Her opponents of the same level had either been Lu Yang or the strongest Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Five-Elements Sect, and she had never won a single round. Furthermore, with a Metamorphic Immortal Physique, her talent was supposed to be stronger than those with a Single Spirit Root, yet she only ranked third in her cohort. This severely diminished her confidence in her combat abilities.

Lu Yang smiled. “Be more confident, Junior Sister Tao. As a prodigy of the current era, few at the Foundation Establishment Stage can beat you. Fighting above your level isn’t as difficult as you think. Let alone Foundation Establishment demon beasts, even against Basic to Intermediate Golden Core demon beasts, you’ll surely win. That means that our training won’t be effective.”

Man Gu was enlightened. “I thought Brother Lu wanted to venture deeper into the jungle to avoid running into the enemies he’d shaved bald. I was too shallow in my thinking!”

Lu Yang, “...”

Don't blurt out the brutal truth like that!

The periphery of the jungle was now filled with Lu Yang’s enemies. The moment he dared to show his face, numerous people would come after him.

“By the way, Junior Sister Tao, could you set up an illusion?”

“What kind of illusion?”

Lu Yang scratched his newly grown hair, smiling bashfully. “You know, an illusion to make us think that our hair is still the same as before.”

Meng Jingzhou was also nodding.

Tao Yaoye gave in. “...Fine.” She cast an illusion over the four, with the only difference from reality being that Lu Yang’s and Meng Jingzhou’s hair now had thick, lush hair.

“I’ll find an Advanced Golden Core demon beast first so that Junior Sister can practice,” Lu Yang suggested.

In his mental space, he asked the Everlasting Immortal Fairy to extend her immortal consciousness and locate the nearest Advanced Golden Core demon beast. “Please, Immortal Fairy.”

“I can help, but first, I’d like to activate the Ancient Barbarian bloodline in this little barbarian fellow.” It was rare for the Everlasting Immortal Fairy to see her masterpiece, and she wanted to lend a hand.

The Barbarian Tribe lacked detailed records about the Ancient Barbarian Tribe, or else Man Gu would have known about the existence of the Everlasting Immortal Fairy. Man Gu also didn’t know how to activate the Ancient Barbarian Bloodline and was still in the phase of gradual exploration.

In the past, the Ancient Barbarians had gradually activated their bloodline as their cultivation increased, which was very inefficient. With the assistance of the Everlasting Immortal Fairy, the process of activating the Ancient Barbarian bloodline would be greatly accelerated.

“Once the Ancient Barbarian bloodline is activated, this little barbarian fellow will have an overwhelming advantage against demon beasts. It will be extremely helpful to you all!”

Lu Yang contemplated it and agreed with her reasoning.

“Man Gu, I will now tell you how to activate your Ancient Barbarian bloodline. Get ready.”

Man Gu replied, “Alright, I’m ready.” Although I don’t know why Brother Lu knows how to activate my bloodline, I know that he won’t lie to me.

Lu Yang began to relay every line the Everlasting Immortal Fairy said to Man Gu. “The Ancient Barbarian bloodline originates from the Everlasting Immortal Fairy, and it is an immortal’s blessing. You have to stretch out your arms and shout, ‘May the Everlasting Immortal Fairy last on for eternity.’ After shouting it three times, your body will heat up. This is the initial sign of the bloodline awakening.”

Man Gu was astonished. I didn’t expect our Ancient Barbarian Tribe to have originated from the Everlasting Immortal Fairy.

Lu Yang continued, “Next, you must sing the praises of the Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s status, calling her the supreme existence and the leader of the five immortals, incomparable and irreplaceable.

“You also have to sing the praises three times.

“Do you remember everything?” Lu Yang now understood that the “awakening ritual” was essentially flattering the Everlasting Immortal Fairy.

“Uh...what was the first phrase again? ‘May the Everlasting Immortal Fairy pass on for eternity?’”

“It’s ‘May the Everlasting Immortal Fairy last on for eternity!’”

Man Gu stretched out his arms and shouted to the sky,

“May the Everlasting Immortal Fairy last on for eternity!

“May the Everlasting Immortal Fairy last on for eternity!

“May the Everlasting Immortal Fairy last on for eternity!”

His three heartfelt shouts startled the birds in the trees, causing them to fly away.

As the “awakening ritual” progressed, Man Gu felt his bloodline boiling inside him as if it were burning. His skin turned bright red, and his face contorted in pain. He gritted his teeth and grimaced, sweat the size of yellow beans pouring from his forehead. It felt like his body was about to explode.

“Whew...whew...” Man Gu’s bloodline slowly returned to normal, and the excruciating pain also faded away.

“How do you feel?”

“I feel pumped with strength!”

“Then that’s...” Before Lu Yang could finish saying “good,” he heard the sounds of demon beasts from not too far away.

The sounds were coming from more than one place. To be more accurate, they were coming from all directions, all heading toward them.

Boom!

Trees were knocked down as a demon beast covered in scales charged forward, its red eyes glaring intently at Man Gu.

Boom!

Another demon beast appeared behind the four of them, its eyes fixed on Man Gu, as though it had seen an enemy.

One after another, Golden Core demon beasts showed up, encircling the four. Their target was clear—it was Man Gu.

“Senior Brother, is this what you meant by finding an Advanced Golden Core demon beast for me to practice first?” Tao Yaoye whispered, never having seen a situation of such grand scale before.

“Immortal Fairy, what on earth is going on?!” Lu Yang realized something had gone wrong with the Ancient Barbarian bloodline in Man Gu.

“Hmm, it looks like the activation of the Ancient Barbarian bloodline wasn’t complete, so it couldn’t suppress the demon beasts and instead enraged them...But that’s not a problem. This is all within my expectations!”

“Immortal Fairy, look into my eyes and say it again.”

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy averted her gaze guiltily. “This is a trial from an immortal.”
