Fantasy Stage (Thanks to Shen Ying Lei Ming for the alliance reward)_i
Including Daoist Buyu, no one expected Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou to successfully leave the small town.
There’s an Unification stage cultivator in Buyi Town, not to mention the town-open and hidden rules that are too complex for ordinary people to understand. Surviving in Buyi Town, let alone leaving, is a challenge in itself.
How did they manage to accomplish this?
Daoist Buyu didn’t think too much about it. When the other four Unification cultivators coughed up blood and their momentum weakened, he seized the opportunity to strike with sudden force.
A deep blue Sword Qi enveloped him, lightly fluctuating like a pond of clear water. The Sword Qi, agile as a snake, drew a beautiful arc in the air, sending two heads flying.
Fairy Eternity sighed, “Your master is impressive; his skills are comparable to the peak sword cultivators of our era. With a single sword stroke, he’s severed their physical bodies and souls, killing two Unification cultivators completely.” Lu Yang was amazed. Facing four alone, he’d killed two unawares. His master certainly lived up to his reputation.
The first appearances of Fairy Eternity and Daoist Buyu had been too disastrous: one being suppressed, and the other trapped in his abode for ten years. As a result, Lu Yang had subconsciously overlooked their identities. 𝒂ll new st𝒐ries at n0ve/lbi/𝒏(.)c𝒐m
One is an Immortal from ancient times. One of the five individuals who became Immortals during the chaotic ancient era. They were the strongest five individuals.
The other is the Sect Leader of one of the Five Great Immortal Sects. Even the current emperor would treat him with the highest etiquette. He is the youngest among the Seek Dao Sect’s nine sons, started cultivation the latest, yet possesses the highest battle strength.
Any regular cultivator associated with these two would have an untroubled and successful life. But Lu Yang didn’t feel that way at all.
“Is it really because of Eldest Senior Sister?” Lu Yang felt he’d found the root of the matter.
These two had struggled during their debut because of Eldest Senior Sister.
Now that Eldest Senior Sister is not around, they finally have a chance to show their abilities.
Daoist Buyu is gathering strength around his sword, looking radiant, preparing to strike again.
The other two sensed the danger, and without even grabbing their companions’ bodies, they turned and ran.
Daoist Buyu did not pursue them. Though he could strike again, the two had gone on guard. They might withstand the attack, and if they did, their counterattack, though nothing to him personally, would be too much for Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou to bear.
“Are you two alright?” Daoist Buyu hurried to check on them and found they were unhurt, having apparently fared well these past few days in Buyi Town. “We’re fine.” They waved, soaking in the spiritual energy, feeling a sense of awe, leaving Buyi Town and regaining feeling of harnessing spiritual essence felt great.
Not being able to use magic skills in Buyi Town had considerably limited their talents.
That’s good, that’s good,” Daoist Buyu sighed in relief, “just that the two got away.”
“Speaking of which, isn’t there also an Unification cultivator in Buyi Town? How did you handle them?” Daoist Buyu looked at Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou with curiosity, wondering if Xiao Yun had given Lu Yang a life-saving tool or the Meng Family had given Meng Jingzhou one.
Feeling that Daoist Buyu was trustworthy, Lu Yang explained, “Actually, there’s an ancient Immortal sealed inside me who guides my cultivation and boosts my strength at critical moments, even to the point of slaying Unification cultivators.”
Daoist Buyu looked at Lu Yang with pity, touched his head, thought about his age, and finally understood.
That made sense; a sixteen or seventeen-year-old was in a phase of fantasy. When he was sixteen, he too had imagined having an ancient beast sealed within him; when people angered him, the seal would loosen, and the energy of the beast would leak out, hurting innocent people. He needed to maintain a cold attitude to ensure the beast remained sealed.
After all, didn’t everyone go through this phase?
An ancient Immortal? He had lived for two thousand years and had never seen an ancient Immortal. Lu Yang was so lucky to not only meet an ancient Immortal but also to have one inside his body?
It must have been the life-saving measure Xiao Yun had left Lu Yang with. “Is this ancient Immortal you mentioned an old man or a beauty?” Daoist Buyu asked.
Remembering the appearance of Fairy Eternity, Lu Yang found she was comparable to the Eldest Senior Sister in terms of beauty when she was calm, so he said, “A beauty.”
As Daoist Buyu expected, the Immortal adolescents of his age fantasize about is either an old man or a beauty-it certainly wouldn’t be a boy, a middle-aged man, or an old lady.
He looked at Buyi Town, still shrouded in rules, paused for a moment, and said, “Let’s first visit the nearby government office and leave them the follow-up affairs.”
The citizens in Buyi Town were too numerous. Despite his superior cultivation when dealing with things that couldn’t be solved with cultivation alone, he preferred to leave it to the professionals.
The issue at Buyi Town involved five ancient Unification cultivators, which exceeded the handling capacity of a County Magistrate. Thus, Daoist Buyu needed to find the Governor responsible for this province.
The Great Xia Dynasty divided the Central Continent into seventeen areas, commonly known as the seventeen states. Under each state were counties and townships.
Since Daoist Buyu was unfamiliar with the road, he enquired about the situation at the nearest county. He discovered they were located in the Qingzhou of the west part of the Central Continent.
“Wait, why are we in the west of the continent?” Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou suspiciously looked at Daoist Buyu. Weren’t they supposed to fly south from the Seek Dao Sect?
Daoist Buyu just grinned, didn’t explain much and told them to follow him.
After enquiring all the way and determining their location, the three finally found the Qingzhou Governor.
On hearing that the Seek Dao Sect Leader was paying a visit, the Qingzhou Governor instantly dropped all his tasks to greet Daoist Buyu personally.
As the Qingzhou Governor, he managed countless resources and was highly respected and flattered. But in terms of position and cultivation level, he was far inferior to Daoist Buyu.
Daoist Buyu didn’t exchange pleasantries. He stated the situation of Buyi Town directly. On the details, he let Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou add to it.
On hearing about the incident in Buyi Town, the Qingzhou Governor broke out m cdd sweat– Five ancient Unification cultivators had awakened. It was a good thing that the incident was discovered and handled in time by the Seek Dao Sect’s Sect Leader. If those five completely recovered and hid somewhere in the dynasty, they could wipe out several counties at any time, which would result in countless deaths.
The Qingzhou Governor made a decision right away to mobilize the local Spirit Transformation and Unification level officials. He wrote letters to the garrison in Qingzhou and the court, alerting them about the resurrection and escape of two ancient Unification cultivators and to stay vigilant.
As for reporting to the court and requesting a commendation for the Seek Dao Sect, he had no time for that now. He needed to resolve affairs concerning the citizens of Buyi Town first.
Lu Yang noticed that the Qingzhou Governor did not mobilize the cultivators at the Refining the Void stage.
Daoist Buyu explained, “The Refining the Void stage is distinct. The strength of cultivators at this stage can be unpredictable: highs could reach the peak of the Unification stage, and lows could drop to the Qi Refinement stage. Therefore, such cultivators tend to stay in a stable place and rarely act.”
“And no one would ever lightly provoke a cultivator in the Refining the Void stage. After all, you wouldn’t know what Realm they’d reach at the next moment.”
