Who Let Him Cultivate?! - Chapter 329
Chapter 329: Chapter 328 Not a Single False Word_1
Shi Huagu has a distinctive secret method that can discern whether someone is telling the truth or lying. With this, he has exposed countless subordinates planted by other deputy masters.
Although this technique can’t always correctly determine if someone is telling the truth or lying, it does have an 89% success rate.
This technique demands immense spiritual and physical energy. Even someone as powerful as Shi Huagu can’t sustain it constantly, but he has no problem maintaining it during his conversation with Lu Yang.
Moreover, he is an expert at observing people’s expressions. He knows that when a person lies, they undergo various subtle changes.
With these two factors combined, almost no one can lie to him.
This is exactly why the master sent him here.
Before cooperating with Heaven’s Court, the first thing to confirm is whether the other party really belongs to Heaven’s Court.
Lu Yang revealed a confident smile, took a sip of his tea, and said with a hint of pride, “I wonder if Master Shi knows Yingtian Immortal and Qilin Immortal?”
“Of course, I have heard about the honorifics of these two ancient immortals.” The Nine Nether also possesses many ancient books detailing the honorifics of the Four Immortals of the Ancients.
“I have heard that nowadays, people like to call certain geniuses ‘Young Immortals’. You all consider them unbeatable and invincible, but I am here to tell you that even during the Golden Core Stage, my master had defeated both Yingtian Immortal and Kirin Immortal face-to-face. Despite the ingenious methods of the two Young Immortals, they still couldn’t defeat my master!”
“During the Golden Core Stage, my master was considered invincible!”
The representatives from Nine Nether were deeply moved, their pupils shrinking.
To be a Young Immortal means being unbeatable in one’s realm, peerless. They had already reached the pinnacle of this stage without further room for advancement.
Two Young Immortals fighting would indeed have to exhaust their spiritual essence and reveal their most potent methods to narrowly determine a victor, because the gap between the two is too minimal.
Amazingly, during the Golden Core Stage, the master single-handedly defeated two Young Immortals, what incredible talent!
Dwarfing all immortals!
No wonder he was the first immortal of ancient times!
Zhou Shan calmed himself and asked, “Has young master Lu ever heard of the final battle between the ancient Dragon and Phoenix Tribes?”
Lu Yang pondered for a moment, asking, “Are you referring to the battle where they used the Phoenix Rebirth technique?”
“No, the Dragon and Phoenix Tribes’ prodigies battled numerous times on their journey towards becoming immortals. This series of battles is historically known as the Dragon & Phoenix Wars. The battle you mentioned was the penultimate one. I am talking about the very last battle.”
Lu Yang laughed, “I see, I’m not familiar with the terminology used in later generations. Please do elaborate.”
Zhou Shan still trembled at the thought of that battle. Just reading the description from the book allowed him to imagine the terrifying scene.
“Records show that there were two demon beasts during ancient times. Both were just a half-step away from becoming immortals, one Dragon and one Phoenix, major foes of Qilin Immortal. Even after Qilin Immortal achieved immortality, the Dragon and Phoenix continued to battle.”
“This was the last recorded battle, triggered by an Immortal Fruit of unknown origin.”
“Presumably, that Immortal Fruit contained an immense chance of a lifetime, leaving no room for compromise.”
“For this Immortal Fruit, the Dragon and Phoenix went into a fierce battle. The terrifying strength released made the world lose its radiance, the space roiled, runes filled the sky, their True Flames collided, causing even stars to shudder.”
“At that time, Qilin Immortal, Yingtian Immortal, Immortal Jiuchong, and Time Immortal were present. Yet, even with these four Immortals at the scene, the Dragon & Phoenix war was unstoppable!”
“The Kirin Immortal was the foremost to preside over the law. He did not favor either party, attempting to mediate the conflict, but the Dragon and Phoenix didn’t listen and even drove Kirin Immortal away.”
“Ultimately, the Dragon & Phoenix War ended in a stalemate, and it remains unknown who obtained that Immortal Fruit.”
Inside the Spiritual Space, Fairy Eternity found the storytelling style familiar: “I remember now. Ying Tian Xian liked to talk this way, saying it enhances an Immortal’s prestige!”
Shi Huagu heard this tale for the first time. He could sense the power of this dragon and phoenix from the few spoken words.
No wonder the Dragon and Phoenix Tribes are still so powerful today. Their foundation is truly deep.
Shi Huagu observed Lu Yang and found his expression unaltered. There was even a hint of amusement in his eyes. It shocked him greatly.
Could it be that even a battle of this magnitude seemed “ordinary” to him?
Could the disciples of the Immortals truly be this terrifying?
Lu Yang laughed softly, “So, this battle was called the Final Battle of the Ancient Dragon and Phoenix in subsequent generations.”
At the Kirin Immortal’s wedding, Fairy sent an Immortal Fruit, stating that it was for the most beautiful person. All the geniuses of the Dragon and Phoenix Tribes wanted this fruit. The Kirin Immortal was in a dilemma and couldn’t prevent it. The three Yingtian Immortals tried to mediate and transformed the battle into a cooking contest, with the three of them being the judges.
What the Yingtian Immortals didn’t know was that the culinary skills of the Dragon and Phoenix geniuses were inherited from Fairy Eternity…
“I know some secrets about this battle. To put it, it all started with a casual move by the master.”
“At that time, the Kirin Immortal held a banquet and invited numerous friends, including countless Transcendence Tribulation Stage cultivators and the three Yingtian Immortals. Due to their fear of my master, they did not extend an invitation to him.”
“After learning this, the master didn’t get angry. Instead, he gifted them an Immortal Fruit with a blessing.”
“The magic of the Immortal Fruit blessed by the master is numerous.”
“Four Immortals don’t need to fight over it; the final competitors for this fruit happen to be that dragon and phoenix.”
“This Immortal Fruit is of great significance. Even the mighty Kirin Immortal dared not rashly declare who should receive this Immortal Fruit.”
“Therefore, the Dragon and Phoenix had to fight. But since it was the Kirin Immortal’s banquet, a martial battle was inappropriate. So they agreed upon a True Flame showdown.”
Zhou Shan was surprised. This was what he deliberately left out earlier. According to ancient records: After the Kirin Immortal withdrew from the field, Yingtian Immortal, Immortal Jiuchong, and Time Immortal—the three Immortals—took charge of maintaining justice, suggesting a True Flame showdown.
The process of the True Flame showdown is unknown, but what is known is that, during the showdown, even the three Immortals of Yingtian were injured.
A True Flame showdown!
Everyone knows that the final war between the ancient Dragon and Phoenix started because of an Immortal Fruit, but only a few know that their method of confrontation was a True Flame showdown!
Zhou Shan obtained a rare ancient book. This was recorded in the book, its author was Yingtian Immortal, the content was absolutely real and reliable!
Lu Yang didn’t know what Zhou Shan was thinking and continued: “The True Flame showdown contained aspects like the degree of torture on living creatures, the control level of True Flame, the proficiency level of using kitchen utensils, etc.”
“In the end, the three Immortals tasted the results of the True Flame showdown, they were subjected to spiritual attacks and their spirits were shaken.”
“One Immortal Fruit ultimately made the Kirin Immortal withdraw, the three Yingtian Immortals’ spirits were shocked. How terrifying is Master’s scheme!” exclaimed Shi Huagu, shocked by the master’s scheme.
Absolutely cannot be enemies with him!
Inside the Spiritual Space, Fairy Eternity frowned slightly. She felt as if Shi Huagu was talking about her and yet not. “Am I really like that?”
Seizing the opportunity, Lu Yang said, “Fairy, your wisdom is profound and unfathomable. Commoners like Shi Huagu are stunned by your wisdom, so they speak recklessly!”
Fairy Eternity nodded in understanding: “That’s right, after all, I am very intelligent!”
In reality, Zhou Shan sent a message to Shi Huagu: “Sir, the fact that the other party knows so many ancient secrets, undoubtedly proves that they are from ancient times!”
Shi Huagu nodded: “I think so too.”
