Chapter 104: Still Relying on Eldest Senior Sister

“What’s happening!” The three men looked at each other in alarm, none knowing what to do next.

“Can we really rely on the Undying Sect? Weren’t we supposed to call for the Undying Being? Why is there a reaction when I call for the Undying Maiden!” Lu Yang loudly criticized the unreliability of the Undying Sect, questioning their own faith—whether it’s the Undying Being or the Undying Maiden, they couldn’t even get their story straight. What kind of religion is this!

“Stop talking nonsense, let’s run!” Meng Jingzhou shouted, realizing now was not the time for complaints.

The figure congealing in the sky was like a mirage, extremely unstable. Sensing the cause and effect relationship with Lu Yang and realizing he had called out her true name, she transformed into a beam of light, entering Lu Yang’s body.

“Just at the Foundation Building stage, such a weak existence.” The figure arrived in Lu Yang’s spiritual space, which he had yet to develop, containing only a small area.

As the figure entered the spiritual space, Lu Yang also arrived there.

The spiritual space was dark all around, as if invisible walls stood there, with only a small area in the middle illuminated. Lu Yang and the figure stood in this light.

Lu Yang watched the figure warily: “Who are you!”

The figure chuckled, amused by Lu Yang’s reaction, her voice melodious, but to Lu Yang, it sounded like a verdict from hell: “Ah, you’ve already called out my name, yet you still don’t know who I am?”

Lu Yang, who had been hoping for the best, felt his heart sink at the worst-case scenario. The figure was indeed the Undying Sect’s deity.

She was an immortal, a true, resurrected immortal!

Just the act of uttering her name could bring her back to life, a terrifying existence!

“What do you want to do?”

The figure didn’t deign to answer Lu Yang’s question, instead asking: “What year is it now, and who controls the universe?”

“It’s the era of The Great Xia dynasty, and the highest ruler of humanity is Emperor Xia. Ten thousand years ago was the era of the Great Yu dynasty. The Great Yu dynasty lasted for ten thousand years, and I don’t know about the dynasties before that.”

“Emperor Xia? The Great Xia? The Great Yu? These are dynasties I’ve never heard of.” The figure shook her head, then asked, “How long have I been dead?”

This question was beyond Lu Yang’s knowledge: “As far as I know, you were an immortal from the ancient times, protecting humanity when the Nameless One refined the stars into the land.”

Lu Yang hinted that she had performed such great deeds as protecting humanity and was a righteous immortal, hoping she wouldn’t act dishonorably towards someone as insignificant as him.

“Nameless One? Refining stars into land? Protecting humanity? What is all this nonsense?” The figure was confused, not understanding what Lu Yang was talking about.

Lu Yang almost cursed out loud, suspecting the Undying Sect’s reliability. Was there a shred of truth in what the Undying Sect said, given her complete ignorance of these matters?

The figure realized her era had long passed, so much so that humanity had completely forgotten her deeds, her immortal name. If there had been even one person in the world who spoke her title and immortal name, she would have been resurrected long ago, not oblivious to even the existence of the Great Yu and The Great Xia dynasties.

Well, since the world has forgotten her name, she decided to use this young man’s body to let her name, Undying Maiden Yellow Bean, resound through heaven and earth once more.

The Undying Maiden looked at Lu Yang with a mix of appreciation and amusement.

Lu Yang had a bad feeling as he heard the Undying Maiden scoff: “I see you are at a low level of cultivation, just having established your Foundation, but you have an excellent spiritual root and a good foundation. I will possess you and show you the splendor of this world!”

Possession!

Things were progressing in the direction Lu Yang least wanted.

Unwilling to be possessed so easily, Lu Yang prepared to confront the Undying Maiden, launching a series of moves that seemed to mimic a woman’s style.

“Don’t think you’re something special just because you’re an immortal!”

The Undying Maiden scoffed. What could such feeble punches do?

She had already surveyed the surroundings: two ghosts, two Foundation Building cultivators, and a dragon horse—none could stop her from possessing him!

If Meng Jingzhou or Barbarian Bone had been there, they would have recognized that Lu Yang was executing the ultimate move of the Shape-Imitating Fist, the Eldest Senior Sister Shape-Imitating Fist.

At the Dao Seeking Sect, Yun Zhi was in the council hall, discussing various matters with the eight elders.

“I think we should allocate more spirit stones to our Pellet Cauldron Peak. We are on the verge of a major breakthrough in the way of the pill. Just a few more spirit stones, and we will reach a historic moment. No amount of spirit stones would be too much for this!”

“Allocating spirit stones to your Pellet Cauldron Peak would be less useful than giving them to our Herb Garden. It’s the perfect time to replace the foundational array, which would make the herbs grow even stronger!”

The elders expressed their own views on where the spirit stones should go, unwilling to yield to each other. Yun Zhi was about to speak when the eight elders saw her about to talk and fell silent.

Suddenly, Yun Zhi’s body shuddered. That sensation from before was back again. Was Lu Yang borrowing her power again?

A sliver of power appeared at Yun Zhi’s fingertips. Should she give it to him?

Last time, Lu Yang easily borrowed power from Yun Zhi because she was unguarded. This time, Yun Zhi was prepared and didn’t let a trace of power leak out.

After a moment’s thought, Yun Zhi retracted her power, deciding to personally check on what Lu Yang was doing.

“Please continue discussing, elders. I’ll be right back.”

Yun Zhi’s soul left her body, traversing the heavens and earth, leaving the elders looking at each other in confusion.

Her soul flew into the air, making a profound leap, and then sped off at an incredible speed, finding Lu Yang’s location and entering his body.

Just as she entered Lu Yang’s body, she heard the Undying Maiden scoffing, “Just give up and let me possess you.”

Yun Zhi immediately recognized that the Undying Maiden was an immortal soul, albeit a weak one, but a complete immortal soul nonetheless.

“How dare you attack my junior brother?” Yun Zhi extended her slender hand, striking towards the Undying Maiden.

“Who!” The Undying Maiden was surprised, as she had no awareness of Yun Zhi’s arrival. Though this was related to her recent resurrection and the weakness of her soul, it was still quite remarkable.

The Undying Maiden was somewhat relieved. During the years she had been dead, humanity had produced such an outstanding figure.

“Dao Seeking Sect, Yun Zhi.”

The Undying Maiden tried to block Yun Zhi’s hand, but the attack seemed weak yet contained the universe, indescribable, as if it exhausted all the principles of magic, impossible to resist.

“Wait, there might be a misunderstanding. I was just joking with the junior!” The Undying Maiden’s face changed drastically, trying everything she could to block the attack, but Yun Zhi’s strength far exceeded her expectations.

Yun Zhi didn’t listen to what the Undying Maiden had to say, hitting her with a palm and suppressing her.

The Undying Maiden was furious, struggling fiercely: “You’re going too far, girl. Don’t think I, the Undying Maiden, am afraid of you!”

“An immortal cannot be humiliated!”

Seeing the Undying Maiden still trying to resist, Yun Zhi frowned, threw Lu Yang out of the spiritual world, and said, “It’s inconvenient for me to exert my full strength with Lu Yang here.”

“Huff—” Lu Yang finally left the spiritual world, returning to reality, taking a deep breath, feeling lucky to have survived the ordeal.

Meng Jingzhou and Barbarian Bone, seeing Lu Yang come back to his senses, hurriedly asked how he was.

Just moments ago, Lu Yang had been staring blankly ahead, causing Meng Jingzhou and Barbarian Bone to panic, not knowing what to do. Then, a soul that looked like Eldest Senior Sister descended from the sky and entered Lu Yang’s body.

“I don’t know.” Lu Yang shook his head. It wasn’t that he didn’t have confidence in Eldest Senior Sister, but the opponent was an immortal, an ancient one at that. Eldest Senior Sister had said there were no immortals in the world, indicating she definitely wasn’t one.

He didn’t know who would win or lose if the two of them fought.

“If Eldest Senior Sister is here, there shouldn’t be a problem.” Meng Jingzhou said this without much confidence. He knew Eldest Senior Sister was strong, but how strong, he didn’t know.

“Come in.” Soon, Lu Yang heard Eldest Senior Sister’s voice inside him, as cold as ever.

Lu Yang re-entered the spiritual space to find the high and mighty Undying Maiden Yellow Bean being beaten miserably, trying to convince Eldest Senior Sister that she was a good person.

“I just resurrected and wanted to joke with the junior. I’m a woman; how could I possess a male cultivator? I, Yellow Bean, also have my pride and wouldn’t do such a disgraceful thing.”

“Besides, I am an immortal soul. A Foundation Building stage body couldn’t bear my power anyway.”

Eldest Senior Sister quietly watched Undying Maiden Yellow Bean, and after an unknown amount of time, finally responded.

“Oh.”

Accepting the Undying Maiden’s explanation.
