Who Let Him Cultivate?!-Chapter 1011 - 1110: Specialty of the Buddha Country

"So it seems, indeed it can be done." Yun Zhi nodded slowly after careful consideration.

"Right?" Seeing Eldest Senior Sister supporting his idea, Lu Yang became more and more excited. "We only knew before to use prisoners’ bodies for Refining and their souls to create Spirit Devices. But in recent years, there have been more and more prisoners in Captive Peak, and our Sect’s magic artifacts are plentiful enough; we don’t really need to refine any for the time being."

"Just right, we can make use of the remaining physical bodies of the prisoners in Captive Peak and refine their blood into Elixirs."

"Moreover, they are all at Integration Period and Transcendance Tribulation Stage, with exceptionally strong self-healing abilities. Inhale a couple of breaths of Spiritual Energy, and the blood that flowed out will return."

The main source of income for the Seek Dao Sect is Refining Pills, but even so, the Sect could not mass-produce Elixirs for Integration Period Cultivators to use; they were all refined by the Seventh Elder and a few of his disciples.

Now, thankfully, making the Oblivion Pill doesn’t even require the use of a Pill Furnace, just feeding the medicine and drawing blood—quite convenient.

Depending on the dilution degree of the blood, it can be used by anyone ranging from Body Integration Great Powers to ordinary people.

"There’s one more thing, Meng Junzi encountered the Grey Immortal while searching for the untraceable Yingtian Immortal in Buddha Country."

"Ah?" Lu Yang exclaimed in surprise. He had heard that Meng Junzi had fought with an Immortal in Buddha Country, but he thought it was with the Mid-heaven Emperor Lord or The Controller of the Great Yu Dynasty. It turned out to be with Ashy Bean.

"He’s still alive?" There was no doubt about Ashy Bean’s fighting strength. Even the alliance of the Four Ancient Immortals might not find it an easy fight, and going solo would be even more life-threatening. Didn’t the Yingtian Immortal have to abandon his body to escape death? The Qilin Immortal and Immortal Jiuchong have yet to show up probably because they too are hiding from Ashy Bean.

"Still alive. From Meng Junzi’s description, it seems that the Grey Immortal intentionally let him go.

Yun Zhi recounted Meng Junzi’s encounter with Ashy Bean, primarily for Fairy Eternity, with Lu Yang just listening in.

Fairy Eternity emerged from behind Lu Yang, wrapped her arms, and nodded, "Those who have seen her forget about her existence; I have not yet seen any Immortal with such a characteristic. It doesn’t sound like any Divine Ability or magic skill. It’s probably a sign that she is approaching ’Transcendence.’

"It seems that the path she’s taking is the right one—achieving Transcendence is about severing Causality and erasing one’s sense of existence."

"She forged an identity and deceived that Meng guy, so does that mean ’faking one’s identity’ won’t generate Causality with others?"

This was also unknown to Fairy Eternity. The Realm that Ashy Bean is in has never been achieved by any Immortal from antiquity to the present. This method of avoiding Causality is most likely something Ashy Bean figured out on her own.

"Then I will go and talk to the Seventh Elder first, to discuss the specifics of refining the Oblivion Pill."

Watching the silhouette of Eldest Senior Sister, carrying three empty space cages, walking away, Lu Yang frowned.

"Strange, I feel like I’ve forgotten something."

That shouldn’t be right. He found Tang Chuanwu, captured the Vice Sect Hierarch of the sect without an invitation, this trip to Buddha Country was very successful.

"Second-in-command, you’re back from Buddha Country?" Yun Mengmeng heard about Lu Yang’s return and immediately ran over.

Lu Yang inwardly cursed—bad luck, finally realizing what he had forgotten; he forgot to bring back specialties from Buddha Country!

But then again, it seems like there really wasn’t anything worth bringing back from Buddha Country as a specialty.

Doudou?

"Where are the specialties?" Yun Mengmeng asked with excitedly wringing hands.

Lu Yang broke into a cold sweat, trying to phrase his words delicately, "Well, Sister Mengmeng, I had intended to bring back some local specialties for you, but there was a bit of an accident..."

Fairy Eternity, ever so understanding, stepped up to provide cover for Lu Yang, "Of course, there are specialties, but it’s not something specific. It’s a special cooking method from Buddha Country—Doudou."

"Little Yang specifically requested that I learn this cooking method to impress you with my skills, Third Boss."

"Immortal, I..."

"Little Yang, there’s no need to explain. I understand your concerns. Don’t worry, you know full well my learning abilities. I assure you the Doudou I make will be authentic in flavor."

"Second-in-command, really?" Yun Mengmeng’s eyes sparkled as she looked at Lu Yang when she heard both the Chief Housekeeper and the Second-in-command care so much about her.

Facing Yun Mengmeng’s innocent gaze, Lu Yang couldn’t bring himself to deny it and could only nod his head.

At that moment, no matter how unpalatable the Buddha Country gruel might be, Lu Yang was hoping that the Fairy would keep it authentic.

May the Worldly Venerable bless... oh no, I mean may Eldest Senior Sister bless me.

Sky Gate Mountain had a kitchen used by Fairy Eternity during Ancient Times, and Eldest Senior Sister had kindly stocked it with plenty of ingredients.

Fairy Eternity told Lu Yang and Yun Mengmeng to wait outside as she marched into the kitchen, ready to strut her stuff.

Her soul was strong enough to touch physical objects.

"Second-in-command, what all did you do in Buddha Country?" Yun Mengmeng asked out of boredom as they waited for Fairy Eternity to cook.

Lu Yang said earnestly, "On the surface, my trip to Buddha Country was for pleasure, but in reality, I received intelligence about Wu Qing’s presence there. I used that as a cover to carry out a thorough and detailed investigation in Buddha Country..."

Yun Mengmeng listened attentively, not expecting the Second-in-command’s trip to Buddha Country to involve so much consideration. When she heard about the Second-in-command’s exquisite plans, she could not help but exclaim admiringly, "That’s amazing!"

"Here we go, my specially-made gruel is ready." Fairy Eternity floated out two plates of gruel with her mind.

"It smells so good!" Yun Mengmeng sniffed, and though she had tasted many delicious foods over the three years since she arrived in the outside world, none were as fragrant as the Chief Housekeeper’s gruel.

"Of course, this is made by me, even Yingtian Immortal and the others have praised my cooking skills."

"Little Yang, you eat too." Fairy Eternity handed the other plate of gruel to Lu Yang.

She was always fair in her actions, not favoring anyone. Since she had made gruel for Yun Mengmeng, she couldn’t neglect the Second-in-command.

Lu Yang shivered, Why do I have a share too?

Lu Yang was inwardly torn and didn’t dare to eat right away, stealthily glancing at Yun Mengmeng beside him.

Yun Mengmeng ate a spoonful of the gruel with a smile, making satisfied noises and continuing to eat spoonful after spoonful.

Lu Yang was utterly astonished; could it be that Fairy Eternity outperformed herself this time, and it was actually delicious?

He finally made up his mind, ate a spoonful of the gruel, and immediately felt sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty flavors overwhelm him, his head becoming dizzy.

With a bang, Lu Yang’s head hit the table. He saw Yun Mengmeng, who looked as if she was drunk, stand up unsteadily, giggling and pointing at Lu Yang.

"Eh, why are there three Second-in-commands?"

Sister Mengmeng, you were poisoned, why didn’t you say so earlier? If I had known, I wouldn’t have eaten it...

After an unknown amount of time, Lu Yang woke up from his deep slumber, his head foggy and aching fiercely: "What just happened?"

Fairy Eternity kindly looked after the Dynasty’s senior official: "Little Yang, you’re too tired from your trip to Buddha Country; you fell asleep halfway through your meal."

"Oh, then I’ll continue eating..."

…

"What just happened?"

"Little Yang, you’re too tired from your trip to Buddha Country; you fell asleep halfway through your meal."

"Oh, then I’ll continue eating..."
