Who Let Him Cultivate?!
Chapter 1206 - 1205 Yun Zhi's Path

Lu Yang was utterly stupefied; even in the face of Heart Tribulation, he couldn't utter such an outrageous statement.

"Eldest Senior Sister, do you mean that although you can scare away the Mid-heaven Emperor Lord, defeat Emperor Wu Yao of Yu, overcome the Four Ancient Immortals, and prevail over Ashy Bean and the Fairy, your path is wrong?"

Yun Zhi nodded, assuring Lu Yang he hadn't misheard.

"Hey, hey, hey, Immortal like me is on par with Miss Yun!" Immortal Fairy, dissatisfied with Lu Yang's last remark, pointed out the mistake, questioning what her affairs had to do with Miss Yun.

"Miss Yun, if your path is not the Dao Fruit path, then your ultimate realm isn't 'Omniscience' or 'Transcendence,' right?"

Yun Zhi hadn't expected Immortal Fairy to discern so much; should she say it was worthy coming from the founder of the Dao Fruit path?

"Xiao Zhi, is it so?"

Yun Zhi initially didn't want to reveal so much. It was better to be aware of one's mistaken paths privately—it wasn't something to be proud of—but relentless questions from close ones compelled her to speak.

"Immortal Fairy Senior is correct, my realm cannot be measured by Dao Fruit. One step further, and it's 'Harmonization.'"

"Harmonization?" Lu Yang heard this term for the first time.

"Harmonization is to replace Heaven with the heart," Yun Zhi said with a complex expression.

"To unify the body with the Dao, to replace Heaven with the heart, it sounds nice, but Heaven is heartless. After Harmonization, I would become the supreme Heaven, devoid of personal desires and distractions, and would also lose all desires."

"At that time, you all, to me, would be nothing more than the myriad beings under Heaven."

Lu Yang stared blankly, not expecting such an outcome: "Is this, is this still human?"

After finishing, Lu Yang wanted to slap himself twice; wasn't this cursing?

Yun Zhi gave a bitter smile: "Of course not human. Haven't I told you? After Harmonization, I become Heaven, how can Heaven be human?"

"Why did you choose this path?" Immortal Fairy curiously inquired, wasn't the Dao Fruit path good? With Miss Yun's talent, taking the Dao Fruit path, she could also become a being comparable to her.

Yun Zhi invited everyone to sit and poured each a cup of Enlightenment Tea before explaining the reasons.

"Originally, I also wanted to follow the Dao Fruit path."

"At that time, I had cultivated to the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, and the next step was to consolidate the Dao Fruit Outline. At that time, I didn't know a single Semi-Immortal, and I only learned about Vast Sea Ancestral Master through Grandmaster."

"It so happened that during that period, Vast Sea Ancestral Master was in seclusion, and I had no one to consult."

"I thought, before the Ancestor comes out of seclusion, why not ponder over it myself, and then bring my questions to him when he emerges, which would also facilitate my learning."

"Unexpectedly, Vast Sea Ancestral Master's seclusion lasted too long, and he did not emerge."

"How long did he seclude himself?" Immortal Fairy couldn't help interrupting.

"…That's not important. During the Ancestor's seclusion, I deduced a completely new path, but at the time, I was unaware."

"After the Ancestor emerged, I requested to spar with him, and after defeating him cleanly, I then realized I was not on the path of Dao Fruit."

"…"

Lu Yang felt that the Vast Sea Ancestral Master was quite unfortunate; after all the hard work of his long seclusion, just as he emerged, Eldest Senior Sister came asking about the Dao Fruit path and then routed him completely.

What did the Ancestor achieve through his seclusion, after all?

No wonder Vast Sea Daoist Lord kept to his seclusion later, who wouldn't be depressed?

"My path is incompatible with the Dao Fruit path. Initially, I didn't think there was anything to it. The Dao Fruit path was created by predecessors; if predecessors could create a path, so could I. No matter what kind of path, as long as it makes me stronger, it's fine."

"Later, I continued cultivating in this direction, until reaching the end of this path, which I named 'Harmonization.'"

"The end was right before my eyes, there was no reason not to approach it. Once the end was confirmed, I proceeded to attempt, and the stars as the Golden Cores you see today are the results of those attempts."

"It was precisely during that attempt that I realized the issues with Harmonization; it's a path where one ultimately loses their humanity to become Heaven—this is an impassable road."

"Fortunately, that was my first attempt, and Harmonization was shallow. I hadn't truly become Heaven and was able to break away, but it also deterred me from making a second attempt."

Yun Zhi earnestly said to Lu Yang: "That's why I said, my path was wrong, Junior Brother, you shouldn't follow my example."

Lu Yang nodded, indeed, if he were to mimic his Eldest Senior Sister, he, too, would end up with Harmonization, becoming the heartless Heaven—not at all the outcome he desired.

… Wait, thinking this, didn't it imply that he could cultivate to Harmonization? Had he always been this confident?

Lu Yang suddenly recalled what Immortal Fairy had mentioned.

"After the Body Integration Realm, the Invincible Primordial Spirit will truly integrate with you, and then you will become extremely confident."

Lu Yang quickly inspected his own body secretly, searching for the Invincible Primordial Spirit, and saw no trace.

Damn, it indeed merged during the Pass Tribulation.

…

Lu Yang's promotion to the Transcendance Tribulation Stage was such a significant event that the Cultivation Monthly printed at breakneck speed, with Guan Shanhai and The Controller working overtime.

Soon, Cultivation Monthly successfully spread the news throughout the entire Cultivation World, causing a worldwide stir.

The last time Lu Yang challenged a higher realm like Yang Kongdong, it seemed commonplace to those unacquainted with the matter. This time, even ordinary people were shocked.

In the streets, taverns, tea houses, flying boats, large ships… wherever there were people, there were discussions about Lu Yang.

"Gosh, unbelievable, one hundred and sixty-two heavenly thunders—who but Talent Lu could endure it?"

"That's why he could directly advance to the Transcendance Tribulation Stage."

"I knew he was extraordinary when Talent Lu single-handedly defeated a Divinity Transformation Stage contender at the Foundation Establishment Stage. You all said it was fake news, but this is coming from the Seek Dao Sect, how could it be fake!"

Jiang Pingan, tilling in the Imperial Palace Forbidden Land, learned of Lu Yang's promotion and slapped his thigh in regret. Such talent, he was destined to become an Immortal, and probably at an incredible pace too.

The contention for Lu Yang in the Great Era was indeed accurate, as he had guessed.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have feared Daoist Yun Zhi back then; I should have forcefully dragged this lad to our Jiang Family to marry in!"

"At the very least, we should have sent a few princesses to the Seek Dao Sect to bond with the lad!"

Thinking of Meng Jingzhou, Jiang Pingan grew indignant: "How come the descendants of Meng Junzi are so promising!"

The more he thought, the more he felt his own descendants were disappointing, and he threw down his hoe and woke the sleeping Emperor Xia as if he were driving a donkey.

"You're in the Divinity Transformation Stage, what are you sleeping for? Get up and cultivate, look at Lu Yang, how young he is, and he's already at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage."

"Ah?"

Emperor Xia groggily woke up; was it too late for him to start striving now?

The happiest upon hearing this news had to be Lu Baqian, Master Ru of the Corpse Chasing Sect.

His loud, triumphant laughter could be heard throughout the entire Corpse Chasing Sect.

"Ha-ha, my title of the number one under the Pass Tribulation remains secure!"
