Who Let Him Cultivate?! (WX)-Chapter 339: Ancient Immortals’ Cultivation Techniques

Truthfully, Lu Yang couldn’t be blamed for being incapable. Crafting a cultivation technique at the Foundation Establishment Stage was simply too demanding. Without sufficient knowledge and experience, how could one possibly create a work like that?

Not only was Lu Yang unable to achieve that, but even the Everlasting Immortal Fairy couldn’t manage it back then.

On the way to the scripture library, Lu Yang chatted idly. “Immortal Fairy, what cultivation technique did you practice back then?”

“Extreme Profundity Art. It was quite an ordinary cultivation technique, but it suited me back then. I relied on it to cultivate until the Transcendent Tribulation Stage. Then, I realized it had limitations; I couldn’t become an immortal with it. Thus, I had an epiphany and comprehended the Everlasting Immortal Art, altering my approach and changing my cultivation technique to ascend to an immortal. freewёbnoνel.com

“When you reach the Transcendent Tribulation Stage, you’ll realize that the limit of every cultivation technique is the Transcendent Tribulation Stage. After all, that’s the pinnacle of living beings. Ascending to an immortal defies the heavens. Only by breaking past limits can one become an immortal. Hence, existing cultivation techniques never work. If you want to attain the Dao and ascend to an immortal, you can only rely on yourself to comprehend and craft a cultivation technique tailored to your circumstances.

“That was the case for me, and so was it for the Nine-Layers Immortal and the other three immortals.

“However, I encountered some challenges when writing my cultivation technique and was slightly slower than them, so I ended up being the last to become an immortal.”

Lu Yang grumbled under his breath, “I thought you’d name your cultivation technique Unbeatable Immortal Art.”

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy waved her hand, acting very magnanimously. “That wouldn’t do. It was the Heaven Mandate Immortal’s cultivation technique. I couldn’t steal his position.”

Lu Yang, “...”

Heaven Mandate Immortal, what happened to you? Were you converted by the Everlasting Immortal Fairy?

Compared to the Nine-Layers Immortal’s Primal Chaos, One Qi, Two Origins, Four Divisions, Six Directions, Eight Corners, Nine Lands, Ten Heavens, Only I Reign Supreme Immortal Art and the Heaven Mandate Immortal’s Unbeatable Immortal Art, the name of the Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s cultivation is actually the most normal.

Of course, maybe it’s because the Everlasting Immortal Fairy wasn’t cultured. While thinking about attaining the Everlasting Dao Fruit, she simply named her cultivation accordingly as Everlasting Immortal Art.

“What was the Qilin Immortal’s cultivation technique called?”

“Even More Unbeatable Immortal Art. Actually, I wanted that name too, but the Qilin Immortal outmaneuvered me and claimed my name.”

Considering the Qilin Immortal and the Heaven Mandate Immortal’s frequent debate over who had closer ties to Heaven, giving the cultivation technique such a name is somewhat justified... Lu Yang tried his best to make excuses for the Qilin Immortal.

“What was the Epoch Immortal’s cultivation technique called?”

“Eternal Verdancy Art.”

Lu Yang gasped. As expected of the eldest. The Epoch Immortal’s naming sense far surpassed those four illiterates.

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy shook her head. “I felt that the name the Epoch Immortal came up with was the worst. It sounded like some common cultivation technique you could find anywhere on the streets.

“Back then, cultivation techniques like Undying and Indestructible Scripture, Heaven Evolution Dao Codex, and Five Elements Cycle Art were all the rage among Transcendent Tribulation and Fusion cultivators. The Epoch Immortal’s cultivation couldn’t stand out among them at all. How did it resemble an immortal’s cultivation technique in any way?”

Lu Yang thought wryly, So because you four had horrible naming sense, you wanted to drag the Epoch Immortal down the water with you?

Hold on, the Heaven Mandate Immortal valued his face and prestige. Why would he choose such a name?

“Did the Heaven Mandate Immortal’s cultivation technique have another name?”

“Of course. To the public, he called it the Innate Wuji Immortal Art.”

As Lu Yang listened to the ancient secrets, he entered the scripture library.

His first task inside the scripture library was to locate the book that recorded the senior disciples' golden core formation experiences.

It’s time for me to add my golden core in there.

Lu Yang.

Unbeatable Golden Core: First-Grade Golden Core.

A person with this golden core can distinguish between the strong and the weak. In their heart, a conviction of invincibility will arise, leading them to believe they are unbeatable, capable of overcoming all obstacles, securing victory in every battle, and standing unbeatable in the world.

Initially, he listened to the Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s devious advice and added “This golden core is the number one golden core in the world.” However, on second thought, he realized that the entry for Yun Zhi’s golden core was right in front.

I should probably not.

Cultivation Method: Challenge beyond one’s level. Remain undefeated in a hundred battles and generate an unbeatable momentum. Leverage this momentum to condense qi in your dantian to form the golden core.

Precaution One: ‘Challenge beyond one’s level’ refers to higher levels, not lower levels.

Precaution Two: This core may induce blind confidence.

Precaution Three: This golden core’s name is for reference only. Results may vary in actual battles.

“Settled!” Lu Yang closed the book with satisfaction.

“Let’s check out the Golden Core cultivation techniques.” Lu Yang went up to the second floor.

The first floor displayed a collection of folk books and various prominent cultivation techniques for the Qi Training and Foundation Establishment stages. The subsequent sections of cultivation techniques were on the second floor, which housed Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivation techniques.

“Mundane World Heavenly Art.

“When one is in the mundane world, their heart is in the Pure Land. Only by immersing oneself in the mundane world and experiencing mortal hardships and the seven emotions and six desires can one achieve true enlightenment and shatter the golden core to achieve a nascent soul.

“Didn’t expect this book to be the first cultivation technique I find.”

“You’ve read it before?” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s era predated concepts such as secular cultivators and secluded cultivators.

“Big Senior Sister told me about this before. Weren’t the Great Xia streets teeming with elderly beggars back then? Many cultivators who practiced this cultivation technique disguised themselves as beggars and blended in with them. After all, being beggars was the most effective way of experiencing mortal hardships.”

“Back then? Is it no longer the case?” The Everlasting Immortal Fairy caught on to the keywords.

Lu Yang rolled his eyes. “As the Great Xia Dynasty developed, they increased crop yields and built welfare systems. There are no more beggars. Nowadays, the old beggars on the streets are all Golden Core cultivators.

“I reckon it won’t be long until these Golden Core cultivators have to search for new methods to experience the mundane world. Big Senior Sister even mentioned that the imperial court plans to open a few mines and have these Golden Core cultivators work as miners.”

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy, “...”

“Hundred Flowers Art.

“In every phase, collect thirty-three rare flowers of distinct species. Upon reaching the Great Perfection Golden Core Stage, merge ninety-nine rare varieties of flowers into a single flower bud. When it blooms, that will be when the golden core shatters to form a nascent soul.

“Many female cultivators like this cultivation technique. It is simple to master and harbors immense beauty.

“However, as this cultivation technique grew popular, several rare flowers were on the brink of extinction. One individual hoarded the last few specimens and auctioned them at astronomical prices.

“Some time passed, and he announced he had more flowers, auctioning them again.

“Some time passed again, and the same thing happened.

“Later, people finally found out that he was the author of the cultivation technique. He had stockpiled those flowers beforehand and drip-fed them to the market periodically for profit.

“The True Insight to Sword Dao. This is the cultivation technique Shifu practiced. Similar to the Qi Training and Foundation Establishment stages, as long as one continuously comprehends the Sword Dao, there will be no cultivation bottlenecks. It’s the most suitable for our Sword Spirit Root lineage.

“Back then, I wanted to directly cultivate with this cultivation technique. Unfortunately, only one person in the world can cultivate it at any time. Since Shifu has cultivated it, I couldn’t anymore.”

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy brooded over it. Based on my observation of the Taciturn Daoist Priest’s Sword Dao, he doesn’t seem like someone hindered by the Transcendent Tribulation threshold though.
