Chapter 276: Unbeatable Momentum

“It’s said that there’s no option for regret when forming a golden core. How can you go back on it?”

The earnest teachings of the Everlasting Immortal Fairy echoed in Lu Yang’s ears. “This is the Unbeatable Golden Core. It can help you become an immortal second only to me. What more could you possibly want?!”

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy walked out from the mental space and manifested in the real world. “I’m not finished yet—this golden core has a third function.”

“What is it?”

“Do you know that the most important thing in cultivation is not talent but an indomitable Dao heart?

“I have seen too many cases of people whose cultivation journey was smooth sailing, only to lose their fighting spirit at the slightest setback and sink into despair.

“The Unbeatable Momentum I told you about is a kind of Dao heart. The Unbeatable Momentum you formed in the jungle condensed into the Unbeatable Golden Core, which is a manifestation of your Dao heart. The third and main function of the Unbeatable Golden Core is to stabilize one’s Dao heart!

“And how important is the Unbeatable Momentum? Since ancient times, there has been a saying: when enemies meet on a narrow path, the braver one prevails. When you fight with an enemy, the outcome of a battle is often the difference of a split second. With the Unbeatable Momentum, you can seize an overwhelming victory in battle!

“Take me as an example. Back when I was at the Golden Core Stage and faced the Heaven Mandate Immortal and Qilin Immortal, I prepared with all my might and relied on the Unbeatable Momentum to defeat them both in one go!”

Lu Yang questioned, “...But why do I remember that they were only at the Foundation Establishment Stage then?”

“So what if they were at the Foundation Establishment Stage? Battles are consequential matters; one must never let one's guard down. Even a lion uses all its might to catch a rabbit. You need to understand this principle!

“Aren’t there plenty of examples of Foundation Establishment cultivators going against the tide to defeat Golden Core cultivators? You and I—we are all living examples. What if the Heaven Mandate Immortal and Qilin Immortal could also defeat Golden Core cultivators?”

“You make a good point, Immortal Fairy.”

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy continued, “Let’s take a step back. Even if you lose miserably, the Unbeatable Golden Core can keep you brimming with confidence and let you believe you are unbeatable!”

Lu Yang, “...”

Isn’t that just having an inflated ego?

“Immortal Fairy, have you ever lost when you were at the Golden Core Stage?”

“You must be joking. How could I lose? When I was at the Golden Core Stage, I beat up the Heaven Mandate Immortal, Qilin Immortal, and Nine-Layers Immortal. I mean, who could have defeated me?”

“What about the Epoch Immortal?”

The Everlasting Immortal Fairy waved her hand dismissively. “The Epoch Immortal was a Jianmu World Tree that gained sentience. His strength cannot be measured by cultivation realm. It was meaningless for me to duel with him.”

Yun Zhi listened quietly by the side, not showing any signs of surprise. She had long known that the Epoch Immortal was originally a Jianmu World Tree, as it was recorded in ancient texts from the Great Qian Dynasty.

“By the way, Big Senior Sister, I found a Herding Sky Grass that has developed spirit sentience in the jungle.” Lu Yang pulled out the still-struggling Herding Sky Grass from his burlap sack.

When Yun Zhi’s frigid gaze landed on the Herding Sky Grass, it felt a chill, as if it had fallen into an icy cellar.

“I already knew about this matter. Good job on noticing that there was someone behind the Herding Sky Grass.”

Lu Yang was stunned. Based on what Big Senior Sister said, does it mean that our entire training in the jungle had been under her watch?

“Then what about this Herding Sky Grass?”

“Consuming humans isn’t the only way for a Herding Sky Grass to mature, yet it chose the most radical method, so it should receive the harshest punishment. Take this grass to the Pill Cauldron Peak and inform Seventh Elder about everything it has done. Seventh Elder will know how to deal with it.

“Come find me after you are done. I have something else to tell you.”

“Understood.”

Lu Yang was burning with curiosity to learn what “something else” was, but Yun Zhi had no intention of elaborating now, and he didn’t dare to ask. He could only head to the Pill Cauldron Peak.

~~~

The first thing Lu Yang did upon arriving at the Pill Cauldron Peak was to hold his breath and complete an internal circulation to avoid being poisoned by some unknown toxin.

Even at the Golden Core Stage, one is still no match for the poisons on the Pill Cauldron Peak.

Fortunately, after one advanced to the Golden Core Stage, they could control their organs to some extent, such as shifting the positions of the internal organs and performing internal circulation, achieving the true meaning of soaring into the skies, diving into the seas, and burrowing beneath the ground.

“Excuse me, where can I find Seventh Elder?” Lu Yang approached a familiar-looking senior male disciple.

He’s probably one of those who had lined up to beat me up before.

“Ah, it’s Junior Brother Lu. Are you looking for Shifu? He should be in the pill room writing articles.”

“Writing articles?”

The senior male disciple explained while leading the way for Lu Yang, “That’s right. The Pill Cauldron Peak’s style of concocting pills isn’t mainstream in the cultivation world, and the outside world is envious of our talents. To expand our influence, Shifu encourages us to write and publish articles to let the outside world understand the real us.”

The Pill Cauldron Peak was lush with vegetation. Plants cast ample shade, and spirit herbs covered the ground. Materials for crafting Great Rejuvenation Pills and Fasting Pills were scattered everywhere. If one wasn’t careful, they might trample on some spirit herb. Although these spirit herbs were not as precious as those in the herb garden, they could still fetch a high price outside the sect.

“We’re here.”

Pill-concocting masters often enjoyed flaunting their special status with luxurious decorations in the outside world. In contrast, Seventh Elder’s pill room looked like a simple thatched cottage, truly matching the description of “humble.”

However, the interior of the pill room was far different from its appearance on the outside.

Lu Yang could feel the rich medicinal properties overflowing from the room. These could greatly benefit even Nascent Soul cultivators, slowly improving their constitution.

After the senior male disciple left, Lu Yang knocked on the door gingerly, not wanting to disturb Seventh Elder’s line of thought.

“Come in.”

“Greetings, Seventh Elder.” Lu Yang bowed respectfully.

Seventh Elder had a head full of white hair, but his face was untouched by wrinkles. He bore the appearance of a youth in glowing spirits. It made one wonder whether this was due to his long-term dedication to concocting pills.

“I heard you’re writing an article?” Lu Yang wanted to learn the latest trends in the pill-concocting community, so that he could show off if he met a pill-concocting master in the future.

“Yes, I’m researching an ancient pill formula discovered by the chief pill-concocting master of the Great Xia Dynasty. He couldn’t decipher the mystery of the formula, so he publicly offered a reward, inviting renowned pill-concocting masters to solve it. If we can unravel the mystery, it will vindicate our Pill Cauldron Peak.

“The ancient pill formula came from a pill-concocting expert from ancient times. It records a pill that can make someone pregnant, but it doesn’t give the pill a name. After some discussion among us pill-concocting masters, we decided to name it the Child-Gifting Pill.

“However, this formula is too old, and it is incomplete. Based on the discernible herbs on the pill formula and my own understanding, I’ve been trying to reconstruct it. Although I kept failing, I’ve ruled out most of the possibilities. Up to now, I haven’t heard of anyone successfully reconstructing the pill formula.

“However, what puzzles me is that the herbs listed on the pill formula are all for enhancing one’s beauty and complexion, with no effects related to pregnancy. I suspect the missing parts of the formula involve herbs that existed in ancient times but are now extinct.”

“Can I take a look?” Lu Yang felt that the effects of the Child-Gifting Pill sounded familiar.

Seventh Elder took out a copy of the formula, which was written by a pill-concocting master called Qing He.

The start of the formula described the effects of the Child-Gifting Pill: When taken with river water, it can induce pregnancy.

Lu Yang fell silent for a moment. “Is it possible—and I’m just asking whether it’s possible—that it’s not the Child-Gifting Pill that makes women pregnant but the river water?”
