Chapter 275: The Function of the Invincible Core



Traslator: yikaii Editor: yikaii

(I’m changing Everlasting Celestial’s real name from Shame Less to Don’t Wants Face with his name being Don’t and Want Face his surname meaning he, the person named “Don’t” wants face)

Lu Yang was silent for a long time before asking, “Fairy, why does this function seem different from what you mentioned?”

“This brings us to the second function of the Invincible Core: if you can’t win, it will clearly tell you not to fight.”

“Think about it, why do you sometimes win and sometimes lose in battles? The reason for failure is that you couldn’t beat the opponent!”

“Now the Invincible Core directly tells you that you can’t win, which prevents you from being defeated.” Everlasting Fairy’s reasoning was clear and logical.

This time, Lu Yang was silent for even longer, mainly because he felt the fairy’s argument made a lot of sense.

Lu Yang used the Invincible Core to check each of his senior brothers and sisters, and the answer was the same: he couldn’t win against them.

“Your senior brothers and sisters are at least in the late Golden Core stage and can all fight above their level. You, a Golden Core early stage cultivator who hasn’t even stabilized, want to defeat them? If I controlled your body, maybe it would be possible,” Everlasting Fairy advised Lu Yang not to aim too high and to wait until Meng Jingzhou formed his Golden Core to fight him instead.

“When you fought Ying Tian Immortal and Qilin Immortal, what weaknesses did the Invincible Core tell you they had?”

“Oh, the Invincible Core told me they were just at the Foundation Building Stage and to use my discretion.”

“……”

It wasn’t until Lu Yang reached the commercial street that he regained some confidence.

Not all the shops were run by retired cultivators; there were also some visiting Golden Core Stage cultivators running businesses here.

These Golden Core Stage cultivators were formidable, but they paled in comparison to Lu Yang.

“The meat sandwich vendor is at the early Golden Core stage, with weak divine sense, suitable for mental attacks.”

“The waiter at Hundred Fragrances Pavilion, can’t beat him, choose another.”

“Six-winged duck, ingredient, early Golden Core stage, weak to fire, can use Three Flavours True Fire to fight or order a roast duck for the kitchen to handle.”

“The tea stall owner, can’t beat him, choose another.”

“The tailor shop owner, mid-Golden Core stage, no weaknesses, can forcefully win.”

The essence of the Golden Core was the integration of Lu Yang’s energy, spirit, and mind, meaning that the Invincible Core was essentially a part of Lu Yang’s body. It could formulate effective strategies based on Lu Yang’s understanding, effectively giving him an extra brain.

“Barbecue shop Master Liu, can’t beat him, choose another.”

“Barbecue shop Master Gao, can’t beat him, choose another.”

“Hmm?” It was only then that Lu Yang realized he had unknowingly arrived at the headquarters of the Undying Sect.

The barbecue shop was bustling. The sect leader and the Everlasting Celestial were delivering meat, moving freshly slaughtered beef and lamb from storage rings.

“Lu Yang!” The Undying Sect’s Sect Leader saw Lu Yang and had a complex expression, a mix of regret, remorse, and relief.

Master Liu and Master Gao had similar reactions.

If not for Lu Yang, how could the Undying Sect have ended up like this?

Who would believe that this kid, after joining the sect for only two months, had brought down the entire Undying Sect!

“Lu Yang? Come, come, have a seat!” The Everlasting Celestial’s expression was entirely different from that of the Undying Sect’s sect leader and vice leader, showing genuine warmth.

He had to be hospitable. Aside from the fact that this kid had Everlasting Fairy residing in him, making him a direct descendant of the Everlasting lineage, he also had a naturally superior status.

Not to mention that this kid was highly favored by both Everlasting Fairy and Yun Zhi, either of which was enough to be cautious about.

He had to curry favor.

“It’s a pity it’s still morning, the meat hasn’t been marinated yet. Otherwise, I’d grill some skewers for you.” The Everlasting Celestial said regretfully, clearly wanting to grill some for Lu Yang.

Having the Everlasting Celestial grill skewers for you was a privilege comparable to having a strongman remove your shoes in his past life.

Lu Yang also felt a bit uneasy. All the high-ranking members of the Undying Sect were here. If it weren’t for the fact that the Undying Sect’s Sect Leader, Master Liu, and Master Gao had been refined into wraiths by Eldest Senior Sister and couldn’t harm any disciples of the Dao Seeking Sect, Lu Yang felt he wouldn’t be able to leave the barbecue shop alive.

The Undying Sect’s Sect Leader was from the same era as the elders of the Dao Seeking Sect and had reached the peak of the Unity Stage.

“I have urgent matters to discuss with Eldest Senior Sister, so I won’t be coming in,” Lu Yang declined. As soon as Everlasting Celestial heard that Lu Yang was going to see Eldest Senior Sister, he quickly released his hold and stopped trying to keep him.

After Lu Yang left, Everlasting Celestial narrowed his eyes. “Lu Yang has formed his Golden Core. Did you see what kind it is?”

The Undying Sect’s Sect Leader shook his head. “From its appearance, it’s a first-grade Golden Core, but I can’t tell exactly which type.”

“It must be a new kind of Golden Core, which aligns with the Dao Seeking Sect’s style.”

Having stayed in the Dao Seeking Sect for so long, the high-ranking members of the Undying Sect had picked up on some of the Dao Seeking Sect’s patterns. For instance, the disciples of the Dao Seeking Sect never followed conventional paths in forming their Golden Cores, resulting in a variety of types.

“Should we initiate the plan targeting Lu Yang?” The Undying Sect’s Sect Leader set up a barrier and asked softly, fearing someone might overhear.

Everlasting Celestial nodded. “Since he has already formed his Golden Core, let’s proceed with the plan and catch him off guard. Remember, the plan must be executed when Yun Zhi is not around!”

“If Yun Zhi shows up, all plans will go to waste, and we’ll be in big trouble!”

“This matter must be kept confidential. If successful, we’ll have a future ahead of us!”

Everlasting Celestial said gravely, “Even though we don’t know the exact type of Golden Core Lu Yang has, knowing that he’s formed it is enough. We can use this opportunity to send him gifts and try to win his favor!”

“Remember, the gift-giving plan must be flawless. This determines whether we can open a branch outside the Dao Seeking Sect!”

“We understand!”

Lu Yang returned to Heaven’s Gate Peak, where Eldest Senior Sister was, as usual, meditating.

Sensing Lu Yang’s arrival, she slowly opened her eyes and carefully scrutinized him.

“You’ve formed your Golden Core?”

For once, Eldest Senior Sister showed a rare expression of puzzlement, unable to identify the type of Lu Yang’s Golden Core. “What type of Golden Core did you form?”

Lu Yang honestly replied, “It’s the same type as Everlasting Fairy’s, called the Invincible Core.”

Yun Zhi nodded. “It seems to be a Golden Core that vanished in the long river of history. The name of the Golden Core is quite fitting for the fairy. As for its power, since it’s the same as the fairy’s, it should rank among the top three first-grade Golden Cores.”

“What are its functions?”

“It can see through the opponent’s weaknesses and formulate targeted strategies to achieve victory.”

“Oh?” Eldest Senior Sister became interested, her tone softening, no longer cold as ice. “If I were your opponent, could your Invincible Core see my weaknesses?”

Lu Yang broke out in a cold sweat upon hearing this.

“I-I’ll try.”

Lu Yang activated the Invincible Core to probe Eldest Senior Sister’s weaknesses. Unsurprisingly, the Invincible Core’s response was the same as before: “You can’t win, choose another.”

Lu Yang conveyed the result to Eldest Senior Sister, who then asked, “What if I insist on fighting?”

Since a battle seemed inevitable, the Invincible Core quickly provided a follow-up answer:

“Commit suicide now, and you’ll maintain your record of a hundred victories.”

Lu Yang: “…Is it too late to form a new Golden Core?”

Despite the saying that there’s no regret in forming a Golden Core, Lu Yang wasn’t sure about others, but he was definitely regretting it.

To hell with this “immortal-grade” Golden Core!
