Who Let Him Cultivate?!
Chapter 1119 - 1118: Creating Laws

On Sky Gate Mountain, most members of the Immortal Lineage and the Great Bean Dynasty gathered together, joyfully mingling.

The once deserted Sky Gate Mountain had now become the secret base of the Immortal Force.

The Dragon and Phoenix ancestors used the chessboard to represent the world, and the black and white pieces to represent their respective forces, contending for supremacy over the world.

Three heads of the Immortal Lineage watched while a historian from the Great Bean Dynasty recorded.

Only Jin Caiwei, though one of the three Great Generals, didn't participate in the Dynasty's struggles and instead concentrated on researching new uses for the Recording Orb.

"Universal Move!" Jiang Lianyi cautiously made her move, and as the white piece dropped, it transformed into a beam of light that shot into the sky.

"Separate Yin and Yang!" Ao Ling, unwilling to show weakness, intercepted the path of the white piece, erupting in a dazzling light, contesting equally with the white piece.

"The Great Dao Blossoms!"

"Step by Step Lotus!"

The chessboard was not only filled with beams reaching the sky but also dual-colored lotuses blooming, making the entire chessboard resemble a pond on all four sides, displaying countless possibilities; even Lu Yang couldn't keep his eyes open because of the brightness.

Finally, Jiang Lianyi seized Ao Ling's weakness; her last piece landed, connecting five white pieces in a line that transformed into a pristine white phoenix soaring into the sky, declaring her victory.

"Another round?" Ao Ling, discontented, wanted to regroup and fight again.

"Bring it on!" Jiang Lianyi, riding high with momentum, was full of confidence.

"Hold on, the new pieces are baked, the old ones can be eaten now," Yun Mengmeng suddenly said, scurrying over to a nearby oven.

This was Yun Mengmeng's recently assembled oven, inside which blazed the Three Flavored True Fire.

She brought out a baking tray filled with small round cookies in black and white colors, which were also the chess pieces used by Ao Ling and Jiang Lianyi just moments ago.

The cookies contained mint, offering a unique refreshing fragrance.

The cookies from the last game were divided and eaten by everyone present; the freshly baked ones were quickly placed on the chessboard for another fierce battle.

"This game of Go is quite fun," commented Yun Mengmeng, who hadn't grown tired of watching it for so long.

"Of course, this was created by Immortal Jiuchong, founded on the principles of Yin and Yang, after putting in great effort and thought. Once created, it was widely praised and revered as 'the respected ninety-five,'" said Fairy Eternity.

Even Lu Yang was hearing this nickname of Immortal Jiuchong for the first time.

Just as Lu Yang was watching the game with his hands behind his back like a retired elder, Meng Jingzhou came climbing up Sky Gate Mountain, looking for Lu Yang with great enthusiasm.

"Old Lu, up for a duel?"

"Oh? That confident, learned some new tricks?" Lu Yang raised an eyebrow; if Old Meng dared to challenge, how could he not accept?

"Try me and find out!"

"Then let's give it a try!" Lu Yang tore himself away from the game; dueling with Old Meng seemed much more interesting than watching.

Coincidentally, others thought the same.

All the Semi-Immortals put down what they were doing to watch the two Divine Transformation Stage Great Powers battle.

The two positioned themselves, and without needing an announcement, simultaneously made their move.

"Three Flavored True Fire, Golden Bird True Flame!"

"Nirvana True Fire, Pure Yang True Flame!"

The collision of four types of True Fire was merely a prelude as both were unafraid of each other's flames, engaging in close combat at the heart of the fire.

Separated by a veil of fire, silhouettes of the two collided and interwove, the intensity of the fire exploding rhythmically with the severity of their clashes.

Lu Yang had anticipated that Old Meng must have learned some new skills. Knowing that he couldn't match him in physical strength, he didn't hold back, drawing the Green Peak Sword and slashing down, releasing a burst of Sword Qi.

"Ha!"

Facing the Sword Qi, Meng Jingzhou neither dodged nor flinched. His gaze intensified, and with his fist clenched at his waist, he ferociously launched a punch that directly shattered the Sword Qi.

"Well struck!"

Lu Yang laughed heartily, stepped forward boldly, and sent multiple streaks of Sword Qi towards Meng Jingzhou. Meng responded with punches, exuding an unmatched aura.

Soon, Lu Yang noticed something amiss. His Sword Qi flowed endlessly, and narrowing his eyes, he saw shades of various fist techniques in Meng Jingzhou's style yet none fit perfectly, "What kind of fist technique is this?"

Seeing that Lu Yang had finally noticed his creation, Meng Jingzhou laughed excitedly. His punches grew sharper, "You wouldn't have guessed, Old Lu. This is the Supreme Fist I developed during my retreat. I'm testing it out on you now!"

"Out of the blue, impressive, Old Meng. Let's see if your fist can withstand my sword!"

With a thought, Lu Yang spread out the embryonic form of his Swordmanship Domain, transforming countless Sword Qi into the semblance of the Green Peak Sword, merging them with the sword in his hand.

"Ten Thousand Swords Returning to Origin!" Lu Yang roared, chopping downwards at Meng Jingzhou.

"Supreme Fist!"

Meng Jingzhou's hair flew about, his fist turning golden, crashing down on the Green Peak Sword like raindrops, carrying an overwhelming momentum. The clash was so intense that it could astonish any Divine Transformation Stage Cultivator.

Crack—

The gold encasing the fist shattered and Meng Jingzhou staggered back two steps before stabilizing.

"Hmph, don't be smug. My Supreme Fist technique has eleven layers, and I've only used the first layer, the Ten Realm."

"Wait until I create the remaining ten layers, then I'll challenge you again!"

With those words, Meng Jingzhou turned and left. This match was merely to test the power of his fist technique; losing was inconsequential.

Although Lu Yang won, he wasn't pleased. His victory came from leveraging ancient techniques, whereas Old Meng had used his own creation.

"Creating techniques is nothing new; I can do it too!"

With determination, Lu Yang decided that only winning with his own techniques would count as a true victory against Old Meng.

Lu Yang consumed two chess pieces and began his retreat.

In terms of sword techniques, Lu Yang's were unmatched in realms, even formidable practitioners in the Body Integration Realm like the Sword Tower Master were only slightly better than him.

But whether it was One Sword Becomes Ten Thousand or Ten Thousand Swords Returning to Origin, they were pre-existing techniques. He lacked something of his own.

He morphed into a Swordmanship furnace, with basic moves, One Sword Becomes Ten Thousand, and Ten Thousand Swords Returning to Origin flashing through his mind, along with all formidable enemies he had faced so far.

As Lu Yang secluded himself in his abode to delve into his studies, the noise from Ao Ling and others playing chess quieted, fearing they might disturb his thoughts.

In reality, they worried too much; at that moment, Lu Yang was completely focused on Swordmanship, undistracted by the outside world.

He was like swimming in the ocean of Swordmanship, searching for a Sword Technique unique to himself.

Suddenly, an inspiration struck, and he grasped it, immediately finding a direction.

This spark of inspiration, like a seed, took root and sprouted in Lu Yang's heart; he nourished it with all his knowledge of Swordmanship, allowing it to grow strong.

Time was untraceable; when Lu Yang opened his eyes, they seemed to hold two Immortal Swords, too dazzling to behold, "It's done!"

"Old Meng, thinking you're the only one who can create techniques?"

"Fairy, what do you think I should name this set of sword techniques?" Lu Yang wasn't good at naming and sought Fairy Eternity's opinion.

"Um~ Since this is the dynasty's first self-created Sword Technique, call it Soy Sword Techniques!"

"Alright, I'll listen to the Fairy. Let's name it Immortal Sword Technique!" Though he wasn't adept at naming, any name that came after Fairy Eternity's suggestion seemed perfect.
