Chapter 243: Chapter 242: Lu Yang, I Want to Go Out and Play_1
Arhat Fist, one of the supreme martial arts of the Golden Buddha Kingdom, could theoretically reach the state of Arhat by practicing to the extreme. However, Lu Yang had never heard of anyone being able to practice this martial art.
The Arhat Fruit Fist, a martial art created by the immortals, was very close to the state of Arhat judging by its name, differing only by a single character. The effect of practicing it was to cool and moisten the lungs, benefit the throat, and improve one’s voice.
If we consider the origins of the martial arts, Arhat Fruit Fist was undoubtedly superior.
However, the problem was that Fairy Eternity created it.
“No need to practice, I can guess what this martial art is for just from its name.”
“Hey, hey, hey, what’s with that look? The Arhat Fruit Fist was created by this immortal. It’s a dignified Immortal-class martial art. That Arhat Fist doesn’t even qualify to be compared with my martial art!” Fairy Eternity stamped her foot, feeling that Lu Yang was belittling her.
“It’s not that I’m belittling you, it’s just that the name of your martial art is unspeakable. It doesn’t sound powerful at all.”
“What do you know, do you think you learn martial arts just to show off, fight and battle others? No, the most important element of martial arts is health preservation.”
Fairy Eternity lectured Lu Yang, correcting his misconceptions: “Isn’t cultivation about living better? And what’s the most important thing about living? It’s the body.”
“For this reason, I specifically created the Health Preservation Boxing, with over a thousand variations including the Arhat Fruit Fist that cools and moistens lungs and benefits the throat, the Little Fennel Fist that dissipates cold and relieves pain, regulates the qi, and harmonizes the stomach.”
“If you take good care of your body, why wouldn’t you become an Arhat?”
“If you can master these thousands of boxing techniques and further integrate them, then you’ll learn this Immortal’s supreme martial art — the Fairy Fist!”
The Fairy Fist, is the martial art that Fairy Eternity used to beat Immortal Eternity to a pulp. Its power is astounding, sending Immortal Eternity scurrying away in a highly disgraceful manner.
“How about it, want to learn?” Fairy Eternity felt it was the right time to impress Lu Yang, so he would stop presuming that she had scammed her way to being an immortal.
As one of the Five Immortals of the Ancients, how could she be a fraud?
“I don’t want to learn at all.” Lu Yang refused outright.
Meanwhile, in reality, Old Turtle crawled out of the lake, his head still spinning.
If just one punch possessed such power, if they were to fight seriously, probably not many could withstand their attacks even among those at the Golden Core Stage.
Although the other person hasn’t taken action, his combat prowess seems to be on par with this youngster named Meng.
Which power produced such a prodigy?
With this thought, Old Turtle stopped obstructing and agreed to help the two find opponents.
The Old Turtle broke off a tree branch and began to sketch a map in the soft mud. He first drew an irregular oval.
“This is our current location, by the small lake. If you go south for 10 miles from here, there’s a black leopard with a white spot on its forehead. It’s incredibly fierce and possesses the bloodline of the ancients. Even though its realm is at the early phase of the Golden Core Stage, it can give a mid-stage cultivator a run for his money.”
“If you head further south from the black leopard, there’s a pack of Moon Shadow Wolves. The wolves generally are in the late stages of the Foundation Establishment Stage, and the Wolf King is at the peak of the early Golden Core Stage. They never act alone. Meeting one Moon Shadow Wolf implies that a large pack is hidden nearby. You must be very careful.”
“To the east, there is…”
“To the west, there is…”
As one of the five rulers of the lake, Old Turtle was surprisingly knowledgeable.
“The Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain know the exact locations. They can take you there.” Old Turtle still needed to guard the small lake, otherwise, he would be worried that his territory would be completely partitioned by the other four half-step Golden Core Stage creatures within ten days to half a month.
Having a small lake as a territory in the dense forest was quite hard-earned.
“The demon beasts with fixed territories are not difficult to deal with since we know their foundations. What you need to be particularly careful of are the demon beasts that roam the dense forest without a fixed location. These demon beasts are very cunning. They can transform into humans, and they love to ambush and hunt your human race. I have seen no less than 50 people die under these demon beasts’ fangs.”
Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou thanked Old Turtle and set off with the Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain to the black leopard’s territory.
“Lu Yang, Lu Yang, can we discuss something?” Fairy Eternity unusually was ingratiating.
“What is it?”
“How many days are you planning to stay in the dense forest?”
“At least five days, I guess.” Lu Yang calculated, fighting various demon beasts, as well as night battles, wouldn’t show off the effect of training if the time was too short.
His and Meng Jingzhou’s plan was to continuously fight in the dense forest to gain fighting experience and consolidate their cultivation levels. If they could find an opportunity to form a golden core here, that would be even better.
Fairy Eternity counted with her fingers to Lu Yang: “Look, I spend my days in the spiritual space doing nothing but eating and sleeping, and watching you two fight when I’m bored. It’s quite boring.”
“They say the meaning of life lies in movement. I feel like I should get out and move around, shouldn’t I?”
“So Fairy, you want to…”
“Can you create a Bodhi tree clone for me to use?” Fairy Eternity smiled ingratiatingly.
“Of course, if you really don’t want to let me use it, I can’t help it, but it would be great if you could make a clone for me!”
Seeing Fairy Eternity indecisive yet looking very expectant, Lu Yang couldn’t help but laugh.
“What are you laughing at!”
“Nothing, nothing.” Lu Yang tried hard to make a very serious face.
“I can create a Bodhi tree clone for you, but you have to be on your best behavior in the dense forest and not cause a big mess. Also, you must return before Meng Jingzhou and I return to the city.”
“Definitely no problem!” Fairy Eternity promised earnestly, “I have a broad range of divine sense and can find you at any time.”
“That’s good.”
Back in reality, Lu Yang halted.
“What’s wrong?” Meng Jingzhou and the Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain were confused. They thought Lu Yang had sensed some danger.
“Nothing much, I just want to use a clone to wander around other parts of the dense forest.”
“A clone?” The Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain looked at each other, only Meng Jingzhou understood something.
Lu Yang held the Bodhi seed, used Earth Escape to retract into the soil, and then used the “Tree Planting Sutra”. The Bodhi tree rose from the ground and grew two Lu Yangs.
The two Lu Yangs simultaneously broke free from the Bodhi tree’s restriction. The original stayed in place, while Fairy Eternity took control of the clone. As soon as she hit the ground, she took off running. She disappeared as soon as she landed, much like the ginseng fruit in legends.
The Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain watched this scene, their eyes nearly popping out. They hadn’t closed their gaping mouths for a long time.
“A… clone?!”
Whether it was during the Foundation Establishment Stage or even the Golden Core Stage, neither of them had heard of anyone who could perform such skill.
“These are just trivial magic skills that aren’t worth mentioning.” Lu Yang put on a humble expression on purpose, causing the Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain to admire him to the extreme.
“Young Hero Lu, can you control your clone?”
Lu Yang waved his hands: “No need to control, the clone can move on its own.”
“Then your clone needs to be careful. I heard that some cultivators like to ambush solitary cultivators. Quite a few people have gone missing.”
“There… there shouldn’t be any encounters, right?” Thinking of Fairy Eternity’s carefree face, Lu Yang felt a bit uneasy.
