Who Let Him Cultivate?!

Chapter 113: Chapter 112: The Reason Daoist Buyu was Imprisonedi

Translator: 549690339

Ignoring the identity of the Five Great Immortal Sects, Seek Dao Sect, is also a notorious existence in the cultivation world. Like parents warning their children not to play with bad kids, the elders often advise their disciples not to associate with Seek Dao Sect.

However, there are always some stubborn disciples who insist on engaging with Seek Dao Sect, causing great distress.

Such as Lan Ting.

Fortunately, the higher-ups in the cultivation world know that Seek Dao Sect is not beyond saving. Since the disappearance of the previous sect leader, the new sect leader, Yun Zhi, has made noticeable improvements in Seek Dao Sect – mainly in the sense that Seek Dao Sect only brings disaster upon itself, not others.

If you view Seek Dao Sect as a mental hospital, then Yun Zhi would be the director, one of the few “normal” people.

It is much better to have Yun Zhi knocking on your door than anyone else.

A hearty voice came from underneath the grounds of the Heavenly Strategy Sect, and in the blink of an eye, there was an old figure standing in front of Yun Zhi.

“Master Daoyan,” Yun Zhi greeted with a bow.

Master Daoyan, the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Strategy Sect, is an ancient figurine in the cultivation world; very few people have lived longer than him. He is low-key and has never revealed his true cultivation level.

“What is the purpose of your visit, Fellow Daoist?” Master Daoyan respectfully addressed Yun Zhi, considering absolute no room for slackening.

“I have some questions about the immortals.”

“Please, proceed.”

“Please, proceed.”

Master Daoyan invited Yun Zhi into a private room within the sect and poured her some tea.

“What aspects of the immortals would you like to ask about?”

“How much do you know about Immortal Eternity?”

Master Daoyan showed a troubled expression and chuckled bitterly: “Immortal Eternity? You do ask some challenging questions. Immortal Eternity is the most mysterious of the five ancient immortals. If it weren’t for the firm belief of the Eternity Sect that they had found his remains, and that there were records of Immortal Eternity within those, I wouldn’t have even known about his existence.”

“Even if there are ruins, it doesn’t necessarily mean they are genuine. I still have reservations about the existence of Immortal Eternity.”

“How so?”

“A relic discovered over ten thousand years ago, while ancient to us now, does not mean it’s authentic, does it?”

“I heard the ruins are from the era of Great Qian, but so what? We are in a new era now, tens of thousands of years removed from the ancient times.”

“It’s entirely plausible that someone during the time of Great Qian concocted an incomprehensible relic, and then after dozens or hundreds of thousands of years, someone happens upon it and because of its ‘ancient’ status, assumes the record of it to be true.”

“If there truly were an Immortal Eternity, then why is there no other evidence aside from this relic to confirm it?”

“Several holes from the era of Great Qian have been unearthed, so why haven’t we encountered any records of Immortal Eternity?”

Yun Zhi nodded in agreement. Master Daoyan had a point: “I have recently located the headquarters of Eternity Sect. Unfortunately, they escaped before I could capture anyone. However, I did manage to find some information from the files they left behind.”

In reality, Yun Zhi hadn’t obtained any information from the headquarters. For safety reasons, she didn’t want to reveal any details about Lu Yang.

“I am keen to hear the details.”

“According to the Eternity Sect, the Dao fruit of Immortal Eternity could be described as ‘immortal’. As long as someone recites the name and immortal moniker of Immortal Eternity, he can be resurrected.”

Master Daoyan’s pupils shrank slightly, greatly taken aback. This type of attribute was incredible, practically impossible to kill.

“Every immortal’s Dao fruit has different characteristics, this is definitely the truth.”

After expressing these sentiments, Master Daoyan added, “However, this is solely the opinion of the Eternity Sect. I maintain my viewpoint that this is a fabrication of an Immortal.”

“The method is similar to how the Great Xia Dynasty became immortal through state destiny. Some hidden manipulator concocted a non-existent immortal, using the faith in the Eternity Sect to slowly manifest the image of Immortal Eternity. When the power of faith accumulates to a certain degree, Immortal Eternity will appear from nothingness.”

Yun Zhi did not refute him; she simply listened quietly to Master Daoyan’s theory. Since Immortal Eternity had already resurrected, it was definitely not immortal fabrication. However, the idea of immortal fabrication had its merits, as it is possible that the other three demonic sects are creating immortals.

After thanking Master Daoyan, Yun Zhi took her leave.

The leader of Heavenly Strategy Sect went to talk to Master Daoyan, recalling the scene where she had effortlessly torn the Array Method apart, he was still shaken, “Master, just how strong is Yun Zhi? Has she become an immortal?”

“Don’t ask, I don’t know anything.”

Yun Zhi had visited many people, and Master Daoyan was the last one. After finishing her business, she went straight back to Seek Dao Sect.

At this time, Lu Yang returned to Sky Gate Mountain to find his master.

“So, what did the senior brothers have to say? Did they all say that under my leadership, Seek Dao Sect is becoming more prosperous?”

Daoist Buyu was brimming with pride, his contribution to the development of Seek Dao Sect was undeniably significant.

Lu Yang looked at his master with a complex expression: “Indeed, your contribution is significant, but everyone prefers Eldest Senior Sister to manage the sect.”

Daoist Buyu slumped, his face a picture of utter desolation: “So it is indeed the case? Fine, let her be the sect leader then. The new generation replacing the old is only natural.”

“As disciples fighting for power and imprisoning their masters, the news would tarnish the reputation of Seek Dao Sect when it gets out.”

“If you let me go, I’ll disappear and never bring up the sect leadership again, and I will never return to Seek Dao Sect. What do you say?” Daoist Buyu proposed.

Lu Yang hesitated, thinking Daoist Buyu had a reasonable point. His master did not seem like a power-hungry person. Just as he was contemplating whether or not to release his master, a cold voice rang out from above.

“Master, you really want to go out?”

Upon hearing the voice, Daoist Buyu’s face changed dramatically.

Lu Yang looked up, pleasantly surprised to see his Eldest Senior Sister had returned, “Eldest Senior Sister!”

Yun Zhi responded with a faint acknowledgment, descending gently without a speck of dust on her.

“Master, you would deceive Junior Brother to get out?”

Yun Zhi’s words, although delivered without fire, echoed like an about-to- erupt volcano in Daoist Buyu’s ears, exuding an overwhelming sense of dread.

Deceive? Lu Yang was taken aback; were all the things the master had told him lies?

What then, was the truth?

Lu Yang’s mind raced, quickly arriving at a highly likely possibility. The master had suffered a qi deviation, and Eldest Senior Sister, in her righteous indignation, had imprisoned him here. Considering it was not proper to air one’s dirty laundry in public, she had not revealed that the master had suffered a qi deviation to the elders.

In the absence of Eldest Senior Sister, the master relayed a message to Lu Yang, using flattery and crafty words to get him to unlock the seal, intending to cause havoc in the world?

That was close, very close. Luckily, Eldest Senior Sister arrived in time.

Then he heard Eldest Senior Sister continued to speak.

“Look at the other sect leaders, they are all diligent in their spiritual cultivation. But look at you, idling all day. Have you completed the daily cultivation exercises I set for you? Have you broken through to the next realm?”

“You’ve accomplished nothing, and yet you want to go out and play?”

Daoist Buyu stammered, unable to utter a word.

Lu Yang: “…”

What the hell was I just thinking? How could such a cliched plot happen in the Seek Dao Sect?
