Survival of the fittest—perhaps this is the brutal cultivation world… what nonsense.

Lu Yang couldn’t continue the narration halfway through.

Shouldn’t the brutal cultivation world be about the strong plundering the weak? Why did it turn into a financial investment scam here?

What happened to strength being the ultimate rule?

The thousand-year-old mystery of the Nine Nether Sect was solved today, leaving Li Haoran speechless.

Although the previous Sect Leader had nothing to do with him, and his immediate predecessor Qin Haoran had little connection with him, he felt that he should express something.

He began to applaud.

Everyone despised the Nine Nether Sect, and tricking them was well done!

The Fifth Elder coughed lightly: “In any case, I agree to your invitation to become the protector of the Heavenly Court Sect.”

“According to your description, the external base of the Heavenly Court Sect is at a barbecue shop in Yanjiang County. When shall we depart?”

“Better sooner than later. How about we leave tomorrow?” Lu Yang suggested.

“Agreed.”

“Also, please remember to disguise yourself, Elder. It wouldn’t be good if someone from the Nine Nether Sect recognizes you.” Lu Yang reminded, as they had used fake names and faces when they met with people from the Nine Nether Sect before.

“That’s easy. Although my disguise skills are not as proficient as Old Ninth’s, it’s more than enough to deal with the Nine Nether Sect people. This time, there might be someone at the Unity level from the Nine Nether Sect. In front of someone at the Unity level, your current disguises will be easily seen through.”

“Before we set off, I’ll give you all a disguise.”

It seemed the Fifth Elder had considerable experience in this regard.

After bidding farewell to the Fifth Elder, Lu Yang did not forget to expand the membership of the Heavenly Court Sect. He wanted to invite Peach Blossom Leaf and Barbarian Bone to join the Heavenly Court Sect and pose as ancient geniuses in Yanjiang County.

Unfortunately, when Lu Yang arrived, he found that Peach Blossom Leaf and Barbarian Bone were in seclusion.

Senior Sister told Lu Yang that Peach Blossom Leaf and Barbarian Bone were consolidating their Golden Core stages and couldn’t be disturbed for a while.

“By the way, Fairy, can you teach me some spells or divine powers that look very ancient, ones that would clearly be from ancient times?”

Lu Yang explained, “Think about it. My current identity is that of an ancient genius. If I use modern techniques, it would be suspicious and easy to expose.”

Everlasting Fairy silently looked at Lu Yang, thinking to herself that none of his techniques looked modern—was it Shrinking Earth into Inches or the Tree Planting Technique?

However, as a kind and understanding fairy, she didn’t say anything discouraging: “Sure.”

“I have an ancient Qi Training technique here. It gathers the spiritual essence of heaven and earth, the morning and evening glows, and if consumed and refined, can extend life and maintain youth. The Qi Training Stage is derived from this ancient Qi Training technique.”

“Nonuple Immortal, when proving he was the first immortal, reviewed many ancient texts, which mentioned this ancient Qi Training technique. He used celestial techniques to deduce that if practiced to the extreme, it could cultivate Hongmeng Purple Qi, extremely powerful. But this is just theoretical; I’ve never seen anyone actually achieve it.”

Lu Yang shook his head: “This won’t do. There’s no opportunity to demonstrate it to the Nine Nether Sect people, and they wouldn’t be able to tell it’s an ancient Qi Training technique.”

“How about the Dragon Transformation Technique? The dragon clan is incredibly strong in physical body, and mastering the Dragon Transformation Technique can allow parts of your body to ‘dragonize’ and gain some of the dragon clan’s innate abilities, such as summoning wind and rain, and controlling rivers and seas.”

“Ying Tian Immortal practiced the Dragon Transformation Technique and achieved the highest accomplishments with it to date. He could fully transform into a dragon, and the dragon clan even called him ‘Dragon Ying.’”

Lu Yang’s eyes lit up: “Hey, this sounds great. How do I learn it?”

“Let me think. First, you should soak in dragon blood for three days. Although it might cause your body to swell like Ying Tian Immortal’s, with my guidance, it shouldn’t be a problem. But, right, isn’t dragon blood hard to obtain in your era?”

In ancient times, to get dragon blood, you either had to force the dragon clan to hand it over with strength, kill a lone true dragon, or, like Ying Tian Immortal, have the dragon clan see your potential and be willing to invest in you.

“We do have dragon blood.”

The Dao Seeking Sect certainly isn’t lacking in dragon or phoenix blood. But the problem is that they are leaving tomorrow, and he can’t soak in dragon blood on the way, especially not for three days.

Everlasting Fairy had just mentioned the possibility of ending up like Ying Tian Immortal.

“Is there anything else?”

“How about the Swallowing Heaven Devouring Earth technique from the Taotie clan?”

Lu Yang was taken aback. The Swallowing Heaven Devouring Earth technique from the Taotie clan was famous. He had heard about it from storytellers even before he started cultivating.

It’s said that this technique can devour souls, spiritual energy, sun, moon, stars, space, and all things in the world!

If he could learn it, it would naturally be beneficial.

“But isn’t this supposed to be an innate divine ability only the Taotie clan can learn? Can I learn it too?”

Everlasting Fairy, as confident as always, patted her chest and said, “Look at you. With my guidance, what can’t you learn?”

“Then I’ll learn this one!” Lu Yang made up his mind, full of joy at finally being able to learn a new skill.

Lu Yang found an open space far from the kitchen on Heaven’s Gate Peak, and Everlasting Fairy appeared to guide him.

“To learn Swallowing Heaven Devouring Earth, the most important thing is to have the desire to devour. This is fundamental.”

“Why is the Taotie clan particularly good at eating? It’s because their desire to devour is instinctual and uncontrollable!”

“Close your eyes and imagine yourself being very hungry, wanting to eat.”

Lu Yang followed Everlasting Fairy’s instructions, imagining himself as a mortal with an empty stomach, feeling very hungry and wanting to eat, so hungry that he was drooling.

He imagined a plate of delicious food in front of him… like stir-fried tomatoes with eggs.

Lu Yang instantly wasn’t hungry anymore.

He opened his eyes to see Everlasting Fairy tilting her head and looking at him.

The fairy looked at him innocently: “What’s wrong?”

“…Nothing, I just made a mistake. Let me imagine again.”

Lu Yang pushed the stir-fried tomatoes with eggs out of his mind and replaced it with plates of mouth-watering dishes:

Red and tender braised pork knuckle absorbing the juices after being fried, spicy and firm river snails, noodles with oil and chili poured over them…

Lu Yang wiped his saliva, feeling truly hungry.

The fairy’s voice came at the right moment: “Remember the mantra I’m reciting. Don’t try to memorize it; understand it. Think about the deeper meaning of the mantra.”

Then came the esoteric and obscure ancient language.

Perhaps Lu Yang’s hunger and the mantra were a good match. Although he still couldn’t understand it, Lu Yang didn’t find it difficult to understand.

From noon till dusk, Lu Yang kept himself in a state of hunger to understand the mantra. Gradually, he became more familiar with it and seemed to grasp its meaning—the desire to eat.

He opened his eyes again, the mantra echoing in his mind. He looked down at the soil under his feet and felt an impulse.

He wanted to eat dirt.

“Wait, why do I want to eat dirt?!” Lu Yang realized something was wrong.

Everlasting Fairy lay on her side on the ground, propping her face with her arm, and said matter-of-factly: “Congratulations, you’ve mastered ‘Devouring Earth.’”
