"The 'Immortal Slaying Secret Technique'?" The Immortal Lady squinted her eyes, she had never heard of a secret technique with such an arrogant name before.
Immortals are the pinnacle of cultivation, unable to be challenged by those of lower levels. If immortals could be slain, then what would be the meaning of cultivating to become an immortal?
"Yes, yes." The Immortal Slaying True Man nodded repeatedly and presented the 'Immortal Slaying Secret Technique'. His Daoist title was also derived from this technique.
"When I was young, I accidentally entered a secret realm. It was a realm opened by an ancient powerhouse, filled with countless treasures. It was with the help of these treasures that I was able to cultivate to the Unity stage."
The Immortal Slaying True Man continued, "The most precious thing in the secret realm is this 'Immortal Slaying Secret Technique'. According to the book, immortals are the kings of all spirits, possessing unmatched power. To defeat an immortal, one must take a different path. The book mentions that one can combine all the advantages of various spirits. If a person possesses the transformation ability of the Kunpeng, the water control ability of the Dragon Clan, the fire control ability of the Phoenix Clan, the wisdom of the Human Clan… all the advantages, then they can slay immortals with mortal power!"
The Immortal Lady flipped through the secret technique and threw it to Lu Yang. "So this is just a bunch of nonsense. It's actually a beast transformation cultivation method."
The Immortal Lady had just introduced the beast transformation cultivation method, which was abandoned by people in the ancient times due to its flawed bloodline, unable to become immortals.
As for the power of slaying immortals mentioned in the secret technique, the Immortal Lady sneered at it.
If it was really as powerful as they claimed, would it have been abandoned by them?
"Are you saying that everything written here is fake?" Lu Yang flipped through the contents, finding them too complicated to understand for a moment.
The Immortal Lady scratched her chin. "I guess the person who created the beast transformation cultivation method was unwilling to let his technique be abandoned. But in ancient times, everyone knew that this cultivation method was unreliable, and no one would fall for it."
"He just changed the cover of the beast transformation cultivation method, added a few prefaces, changed the name, and threw it into a hidden realm. After a long time, when there were fewer people who knew about the beast transformation cultivation method, he would let some fool obtain it and believe in the words inside, thus passing down the beast transformation cultivation method."
The Immortal Lady disdainfully said, "It's just bragging. Anyone can do it. I even said I could defeat that Yun Zhi girl."
Lu Yang suspected that the Immortal Lady was deliberately acting weak.
She continued to educate Lu Yang, "Don't think that everything written in some ancient books is true. At that time, we were experts at fabricating things, and there were more fake things than real ones."
"At that time, we even created a complete Heavenly Court system, where one could ascend to the immortal realm and there were human immortals, earth immortals, and heavenly immortals. There were even Five Heavenly Emperors. If you ever come across it, don't believe that nonsense. It was all made up."
Lu Yang: "…"
It's already difficult to verify what happened in ancient times, and you guys even fabricated things?
Lu Yang felt sorry for those old cultivators who liked to study what happened in ancient times. They spent a lot of effort researching what happened in ancient times, only to find out that it was all made up by them.
Can the hearts of those old cultivators handle it?
Fortunately, so far, Lu Yang hadn't heard of the Heavenly Court system. It was probably lost in the river of time, luckily not poisoning future generations.
The Immortal Slaying True Man trembled as he knelt on the ground, listening to the Immortal Lady's words. He felt like he had learned something incredible.
Recalling the events of ancient times so easily, and with her self-proclaimed title of "this Immortal," the situation had developed to the point where he no longer doubted his luck.
And this young man in the Foundation Establishment stage, although his cultivation level was low, he could communicate with ancient immortals on an equal footing. Could he also be an ancient immortal?
Was he reincarnated or possessed?
The Immortal Slaying True Man wanted to slap himself twice. Why did he have to choose the name "Immortal Slaying"? Was he asking for trouble by rushing into the spiritual space?
Tired of living?
The Immortal Slaying True Man cautiously retreated. He felt that the pressure on him had lessened, indicating that the Immortal Lady's attention was no longer focused on him. He wanted to take the opportunity of their conversation to slip out of the spiritual space and escape.
But then he realized that the spiritual space was as solid as a coffin, and he couldn't escape at all.
The Immortal Lady sneered. Lu Yang's spiritual space was like her home. How could an immortal's home be entered and left at will?
"You want to leave? Then leave your life behind."
The Immortal Lady despised the Immortal Slaying True Man's cultivation method. When the rules were first established, countless people died under those rules. And looking at the Mayor's physical body, it was the result of killing hundreds or even thousands of people.
As an immortal of the Human Clan, the Immortal Lady didn't dare to claim how great she was or how many people of her clan she had protected, but she dared to say that she had never harmed anyone.
When killing.
The Immortal Lady pointed her finger, and the Immortal Slaying True Man desperately tried to move his body, attempting to avoid this finger. But no matter how he moved, he couldn't escape.
This was an unavoidable finger!
The finger landed on his forehead, and the Immortal Slaying True Man's soul shattered.
…
"This person is difficult to deal with!" Outside of Buyi Town, the four Unity stage cultivators faced the Silent Daoist and felt the situation was extremely tricky.
They had finally found the sword that merged with the Silent Daoist from the myriad of swords, hoping to have a fair fight, but the Silent Daoist once again displayed the technique of transforming one sword into myriad swords and merging with them.
Could this technique be used continuously?!
"If you don't come out, we will go to Buyi Town and kill those two kids!" One of the Unity stage cultivators threatened. It wasn't an empty threat, they were capable of doing such a thing.
Suddenly, the myriad of swords formed a large sphere, with the sword tips facing inward, enveloping the four cultivators.
The myriad of swords attacked, slashing towards the four cultivators. They didn't expect the Silent Daoist to suddenly exert such power and suffered a great loss.
The Silent Daoist revealed his true form, holding his lifebound sword, staring at the four cultivators intently. "I dare anyone to harm them!"
Facing the gaze of the Silent Daoist, the four cultivators felt an intense chill. They knew that at least two of them would perish if they fought against a supreme swordsman with their lives on the line.
One of them sneered, "Bluffing. The Mayor of Buyi Town is our companion. Do you really think those two juniors will be safe if they obediently follow the rules?"
"When our companions take those two juniors as hostages, I'd like to see what you'll do. Will you risk the lives of your juniors and kill us, or will you drop your sword and obediently let us kill you?"
The Silent Daoist gritted his teeth, gripping his sword tightly. If things really turned out as the other party said, he would risk his lifespan and cultivation level to kill the four of them before anything happened!
As the two sides faced off, a teleportation array appeared outside the Cloth Village. The four Unity Stage cultivators were about to provoke the Silent Daoist, claiming that they had captured his two juniors, but their faces suddenly changed, and they spat out a mouthful of blood.
"How is this possible? Someone used the rules to leave the Cloth Village?!"
If someone left the Cloth Village, they would suffer a backlash.
The teleportation array disappeared. Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou successfully left the Cloth Village. Lu Yang, holding the village chief's head, waved at the people in the sky with a smile, his provocative intent undisguised.
"Pfft—" The four Unity Stage cultivators spat out blood again.
