Who Let Him Cultivate Immortality

Chapter 470: Immortal Fairy uproots the laurel tree

"Bring it on," Immortal Fairy eagerly accepted Luo Hongxia's challenge without a hint of fear.

Since her debut, she had roamed the ancient world for sixteen years, winning battle after battle, often defeating opponents above her level. She was also the creator of the Invincible Elixir. When it came to fighting, she feared no one!

Not even Yun Zhi!

The crowd did not intend to stop them; instead, they found the situation quite amusing and made space for Luo Hongxia and Immortal Fairy to showcase their skills.

Everyone was curious to see Lu Yang's true strength, including Qiu Jin'an.

Back when Lu Yang fought Huang Ming, Qiu Jin'an had felt that Lu Yang hadn't shown his full capabilities and must have other hidden cards.

Luo Hongxia opened a small circular box, a supreme treasure crafted from the horn of a Xiezhi, named the Light Confining Box.

Luo Hongxia recited an ancestral incantation to activate the Light Confining Box. The box emitted two beams of light, one falling on herself and the other on Immortal Fairy.

Just as Immortal Fairy was about to dispel the light, Luo Hongxia said, "Don't resist. The box will adjust our realms to the same level."

With a swoosh, both were sucked into the box.

Inside the box was a vast, boundless space that could change its environment according to the caster's will—mountains, rivers, lakes, oceans, all could be transformed, making it perfect for environmental battles.

The moment they entered the box, Luo Hongxia's realm began to change, continuously dropping from Body Fusion, to Void Refinement, to Divine Transformation, and finally to Mid Golden Elixir stage.

Her physical strength and mental power were also adjusted accordingly.

"Mid Golden Elixir stage... how nostalgic," Luo Hongxia smiled. She had once been a peerless genius, unmatched in her era, with opponents in the same realm lacking the courage to fight her.

Now, armed with Body Fusion level experience, she returned to the Mid Golden Elixir stage. Who could stand against her?

"Begin!"

Luo Hongxia threw out a seed and cast the Tree-Planting Technique. The seed took root and sprouted into a tall laurel tree, its leaves shaking with vibrant life!

The laurel tree could provide her with a continuous source of power.

"Bright Moon High in the Sky!"

Luo Hongxia raised her hand, and a bright moon hung high in the sky. Moonlight transformed into beams of light, raining down on Immortal Fairy.

Each beam was powerful enough to severely injure an ordinary Golden Elixir stage cultivator, rendering them incapable of fighting.

Immortal Fairy deftly dodged, her steps light and agile like a cat. With slight movements, she evaded the moonlight attacks.

This was a technique she had developed after observing Kylin Immortal's agile movements during their battle. Kylin Immortal could barely dodge her attacks, which was quite impressive compared to Heavenly Immortal Ying, who would only take the hits head-on, lacking in footwork.

Inspired, she had carefully observed Kylin Immortal's movements and deduced the "Kylin Step."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Seeing that she couldn't hit Immortal Fairy, Luo Hongxia changed her hand gestures, causing the light beams to fall like endless rain.

Facing the unavoidable attack, Immortal Fairy stomped her foot. The yellow earth beneath her rippled like waves, forming a tsunami of earth that surged forward, threatening to engulf her before the light beams could hit.

She extended a finger and gently tapped the yellow earth, instantly hardening it to an unbreakable state, blocking the rain of light beams.

"Turning Earth to Steel?!" Luo Hongxia exclaimed, surprised that Lu Yang could use such a technique.

She then sneered. So what if he could use ancient spells?

"Moonfall to Earth!" The moon crashed down with a thunderous roar, colliding with the steel-like yellow earth, raising a cloud of dust!

As the dust settled, Luo Hongxia searched for Lu Yang but found nothing.

"He's underground!" Luo Hongxia's rich combat experience kicked in. She had often been ambushed by Qiu Jin'an using this trick in her younger days and had become adept at countering it.

Immortal Fairy had used a proper Earth Escape technique, similar to Lu Yang's "Shrink Earth."

Luo Hongxia leaped into the air, ready to dodge any attack from any direction.

"Bright Moon High in the Sky."

A bright moon hung in the sky again. If Lu Yang dared to show himself, he would be attacked by moonlight once more!

Bang.

Immortal Fairy emerged from the ground, not to attack Luo Hongxia but to target the laurel tree she had planted at the start of the battle.

The power needed for Luo Hongxia's attacks was beyond what a Mid Golden Elixir stage could sustain, even for Lu Yang. The answer was obvious: the laurel tree was providing Luo Hongxia with continuous power.

This was a common battle technique of the Moon Laurel Immortal Palace, mastered by Elemental Infant stage disciples. Even Lan Ting couldn't perform it, but Luo Hongxia, with her rich experience, could use it at the Golden Elixir stage.

Luo Hongxia tensed for a moment, surprised by her opponent's sharp insight in identifying the weak point so quickly, but she soon calmed down.

The laurel tree had no offensive capabilities. Its two main features were providing spiritual power to the caster and having an incredibly strong defense!

Even if Lu Yang knew several powerful attack spells, breaking through the laurel tree's defense in a short time was impossible!

"Pretty tough," Immortal Fairy casually punched the laurel tree. The tree merely shook, not losing a single leaf.

"Looks like I'll need to use some tricks... Withering Herb Fist!"

To master the Immortal Fairy's fist techniques, she had studied thousands of herbal fist techniques. From these, she derived a specialized fist technique to counter plant-based beings. This fist caused all plants to wither and die, hence the name Withering Herb Fist.

The laurel tree withered instantly, its leaves turning yellow and branches drying up, dying in a blink!

Pfft—

Luo Hongxia spat out a mouthful of blood, her face pale from the backlash of the laurel tree's death.

She hadn't expected her opponent to kill the laurel tree with one punch. What kind of fist technique was that!?

But so what? Even without the laurel tree, could she lose to a junior?

Luo Hongxia dove from the sky, while Immortal Fairy uprooted the laurel tree and swung it at her, knocking her senseless.

...

In the palace, a group of righteous experts gathered around the treasure box, discussing animatedly.

"Who do you think will win?"

Those outside couldn't see what was happening inside the box and could only guess.

"Probably Hongxia. She has rich combat experience, unlike those Body Fusion stage cultivators who started over after dispersing their cultivation. Lu Yang is just a junior; how could he win?" Yang Ding speculated, stroking his chin.

"I think so too," Emperor of Xia agreed.

"Lu Yang also has a chance to win," Qiu Jin'an cautiously added. After all, Lu Yang was Yun Zhi's junior disciple, and who knew what techniques he might pull off.

"Look, the box is glowing. The winner is about to be decided!"

Boom—

Luo Hongxia flew out of the box, stars in her eyes and her mouth full of leaves.

The second update will be at eleven o'clock.
