Who Let Him Cultivate Immortality

Chapter 245: One Punch

Everlasting Fairy was startled for a moment and instinctively slapped downward, a reflex left over from ancient times when fighting, as her combat methods had long since become second nature.

Lu Chang had just gotten up when his head felt like it was struck by a giant stone, and he collapsed to the ground with a thud.

“You are the bad guys. Monk Fruit Fist,” Everlasting Fairy said, hearing that they wanted to rob her storage ring, which triggered unpleasant memories. She slapped each of them.

Her delicate pink hands concealed tremendous power. Coupled with a special force technique, the four early Golden Core stage demonic beasts couldn’t even block a single slap. They fell to the ground again, spitting black blood.

Demonic beasts have more vigorous vital energy than humans. After being slapped by Everlasting Fairy, their previously boiling blood quickly cooled, even the blood flow slowed down, and finally, it stopped completely, turning hot blood into dead silence.

Monk Fruit Fist, has the effect of clearing internal heat and moistening the lungs. (TL Note: Internal heat is a traditional chinese medicine concept. Some foods are considered “heaty” and will lead to an excess of yang energy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eight_principles#Full_heat)

Combined with the pufferfish’s deadly poison, the four demonic beasts breathed their last.

In less than half an hour, five Golden Core stage demonic beasts were dead.

“Even Qilin Immortal doesn’t dare bully me. You four little demons think you can bully me?” Everlasting Fairy snorted coldly, putting her hands on her hips, feeling very proud as she spoke.

“In ancient times, there were people like you who loved to bully me. It’s really annoying, and it hasn’t changed even after 300,000 years.”

Everlasting Fairy muttered to herself as she left, soon putting the matter behind her, humming a cheerful song, leaving four corpses behind.

In ancient times, some people saw that she was a woman, beautiful and easily deceived, and wanted to trick her. The result was always the same: she, being smart, saw through them and killed them all.

“Gathering mushrooms, gathering mushrooms, picking a little mushroom…”

…

“Human bodies are really fragile, getting poisoned so easily. If everyone could learn my health-preserving boxing techniques and turn their bodies into great medicines, no poison would be effective.”

“That Lu Yang too, I was kind enough to offer to teach him, why didn’t he want to learn? Ying Tian Immortal and the others knelt and begged me, but I didn’t teach them,” Everlasting Fairy walked leisurely, breaking a branch, refining it into a Spiritual Treasure, and swinging it around in the dense forest, like holding a peerless sword.

A strange force radiated from her, and no insects dared to come near her.

This forest gave her a familiar feeling. Before she became an immortal, she often traversed the forest, looking for herbs to enhance her cultivation level or facing sneak attacks from various prodigies.

She was very famous at the time, not only because of her beauty but more so for her terrifying combat prowess and mysterious thoughts.

No one could understand what she was thinking or what she would do.

But one thing was certain: she was definitely a nightmare on everyone’s path to immortality. She was the biggest obstacle to becoming an immortal.

At that time, Ying Tian Immortal and Qilin Immortal had not yet made a name for themselves. The world knew nothing about them. Their greatest wish was to defeat the powerful Everlasting Fairy, become famous in one battle, and gain the attention of the world.

But this wish was never fulfilled.

As a result, Everlasting Fairy became very adept at facing various dangers and challenges. It was impossible to ambush her in the forest.

Roar—

An angry beast roar came from not far away, catching Everlasting Fairy’s interest.

Before she could get closer, she noticed the ground shaking, the epicenter getting nearer, like some huge creature was running.

Boom—Boom—

Everlasting Fairy jumped onto a large rock, stood on her tiptoes, and placed her right hand on her brow, looking into the distance: “What is that…”

Trees toppled, dust filled the air, and a huge body, taller than the forest trees, revealed a rough back.

It was a raging elephant chasing a few people, its body completely white like jade, with six long tusks.

Those people were highly skilled, all at the middle or late Golden Core stage, but facing the raging giant elephant, they had no thoughts of resistance, only focusing on running forward.

Everlasting Fairy jumped down from the rock.

When those people saw Everlasting Fairy appear, they were shocked and desperately shouted at her: “This is a Nascent Soul early-stage elephant king, a purebred ancient bloodline, a six-tusked white elephant. We don’t know why it went mad. Little girl, you must run!”

The six-tusked white elephant, although not as prestigious as dragons, phoenixes, taotie, or qiongqi in ancient times, was still a famous demonic clan, second only to them. Their clan produced at least three great masters at the Tribulation Crossing Stage.

The people being chased by the six-tusked white elephant could tell at a glance that Everlasting Fairy’s cultivation was only at the late Foundation Establishment stage. Facing the raging elephant king, even those at the early Nascent Soul stage dared not confront it head-on. If this little girl didn’t leave, her fate would be predictable.

They didn’t want to see this little girl die tragically.

The little girl seemed petrified, standing motionless.

One person exerted force, trying to pick up Everlasting Fairy and run with her, but to his surprise, Everlasting Fairy seemed fused with the ground.

The man was astonished. Despite being at the late Golden Core stage, he couldn’t lift this little girl.

What’s with this little girl?

The others also tried to move Everlasting Fairy, all to no avail. The six-tusked white elephant was right behind them, so they couldn’t afford to delay and had to keep running.

“Elephant, you’re being naughty. Your chieftain swore to me long ago not to harm humans,” Everlasting Fairy revealed a secret unknown even within the six-tusked white elephant clan.

Unfortunately, the white elephant had gone berserk and couldn’t understand any words.

Everlasting Fairy sighed. If she didn’t stop this white elephant, those people would surely perish.

It was a pity for this body.

She took a deep breath, assumed a stance, and clenched her right fist, placing it at her waist.

“Fairy Fist Technique.”

She slowly threw a punch.

…

“Young Master Song Hua, and the other young masters, are you all right?”

“We noticed some commotion here earlier. You didn’t accidentally enter the six-tusked white elephant’s territory, did you? That’s a place you absolutely mustn’t go!”

The bodyguards came running, panting. These young masters were from the Song family of the imperial capital, coming to the Demon Subjugation Pass to gain experience for future promotions.

For safety reasons, the Song family had also hired several bodyguards for them.

At first, they were obedient, but later, these young masters found the bodyguards increasingly annoying, forbidding them from doing this or that.

If they did nothing, what was the point of coming to the Demon Subjugation Pass? Was it just for sightseeing?

So, they sneaked away when the bodyguards weren’t looking. They hadn’t gone far when they accidentally entered the six-tusked white elephant’s territory and inexplicably provoked it.

Seeing Song Hua and the others sitting on the ground, dumbfounded, not knowing what to say.

The bodyguards followed their gaze and were equally stunned, lost in thought.

There was a terrifying trench, as if some enormous creature had slid through, knocking down countless giant trees.

At the end of the trench, a white elephant the size of a small mountain lay on the ground, unconscious.

“What happened?”

Song Hua and the others couldn’t answer or didn’t know how to describe what had just happened.

A petite girl, about sixteen or seventeen years old, at the late Foundation Establishment stage, faced the rampaging Nascent Soul Stage giant elephant and knocked it down with a single punch.

That punch seemed to drain all the girl’s strength. She collapsed weakly to the ground, merging with the soil, disappearing.

…

“Are you saying there’s a six-tusked white elephant at the Nascent Soul Stage nearby?” After a long battle, Lu Yang was panting, sitting on the ground to rest, listening to the Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain introduce the extremely dangerous demonic beasts in the vicinity.

“That giant elephant is said to be at the early Nascent Soul stage, it’s extremely territorial. If anyone enters its territory, they will be trampled to death without mercy.”

“Moreover, it has a violent temper. It treats other early Nascent Soul stage demonic beasts the same way. If anyone dares to intrude without greeting, it attacks. It once fought another early Nascent Soul stage demonic beast for this reason. The result was a pyrrhic victory for the white elephant, with the other beast dying tragically.”

“Hiss—” Meng Jingzhou took a deep breath. Was it really that fierce?

“Indeed. Although I know the two young heroes have remarkable combat power, having defeated several Golden Core stage demonic beasts with ease, even so, facing that six-tusked white elephant would not end well.”

“So we must absolutely avoid the six-tusked white elephant’s territory,” advised the Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain.

“I understand.” Lu Yang nodded. He was always receptive to advice.

“Lu Yang, I’m back.” Everlasting Fairy’s immortal soul floated into the mental space, unnoticed by anyone.

“You’re back so soon? It’s not even three days yet,” Lu Yang was surprised. Based on his understanding of Everlasting Fairy, he thought she would play for at least three days.

“Well—your wooden clone wasn’t sturdy. I broke it while playing,” Everlasting Fairy said pitifully.

“What did you do?”

Everlasting Fairy stuck out her tongue, feeling it was quite embarrassing to have broken the wooden clone: “Not telling you.”

If she used Lu Yang’s main body to fight, Everlasting Fairy was confident she could knock down the white elephant with one punch without damaging Lu Yang’s body.
