Who Let Him Cultivate?!

Chapter 313: Chapter 312: Tao Yaoye’s Golden Core_1

On the martial arts field, Lu Yang stood with his hands behind his back, the red tassel on his sword hilt fluttering in the wind. A faint smile played on his lips, as if he had already completely mastered the direction and outcome of this battle.

In stark contrast to Lu Yang was Tao Yaoye, looking as if she was facing a formidable enemy.

The Golden Core gave her the courage to challenge Lu Yang, but that was all it was—courage. She wasn’t sure if her Golden Core could defeat Lu Yang.

“Invincible Elixir, how can I defeat Tao Yaoye?” Lu Yang felt it was necessary to show Tao Yaoye the power of his Golden Core.

The Invincible Elixir quickly provided a brief and effective answer.

“Use the Arhat Fist.”

Lu Yang suddenly realized that he had this secret technique at his disposal.

The Lu family’s Arhat Fist, guaranteed to defeat a person, worked especially well on women.

Tao Yaoye saw the confident smile on Lu Yang’s face and turned pale, as if she had thought of something.

“Senior Brother Lu, you and I are siblings in the martial arts world. Please don’t use the Arhat Fist!”

“… Okay.” Lu Yang thought about it and felt that she was right. They were all from the same martial arts family, there was no need to be so ruthless.

“Arhat Fist? Is it the Arhat Fist from Buddhism that turns the user into an Arhat when practiced to mastery?” The other disciples were whispering underneath the stage, puzzled about why Tao Yaoye was so afraid of the Arhat Fist.

“It should be. As far as I know, there isn’t a second type of Arhat Fist in this world.”

“Even though the Arhat Fist is powerful, with Junior Sister Tao’s talent, she shouldn’t be this afraid, should she?”

“I’m not sure.”

Despite their extensive knowledge, the disciples remained unclear about the situation.

Qin Yanyan was also confused and asked the Eldest Senior Sister, “Sister, do you know why?”

She and Li Haoran were related as father and daughter in their previous lives; her mother hadn’t married yet, so she and Li Haoran were of the same generation.

Since Yun Zhi was Li Haoran’s Senior Sister, there should be no problem calling her ‘sister’.

Perhaps, she was just imagining it, but Qin Yanyan felt that Yun Zhi revealed a faint smile, as if knowing what would happen. “Compared to the usual Arhat Fist, Lu Yang’s tends to cause hair loss.”

“What?” Qin Yanyan was taken aback, wondering if she had heard wrong.

She had never heard of such a fighting technique before.

Was this the talent of the top-notch youth of this generation?

On the stage, Lu Yang held the sword tightly, the sword light flickering, as if stars were rotating around it.

Tao Yaoye opened her red paper umbrella, which gently rotated, ripples distorting the space around it.

Lu Yang was surprised to realize that the audience around had disappeared, and the platform under his feet seemed to extend infinitely without boundaries.

He took a deep breath, realizing that he had entered Tao Yaoye’s illusion.

If he mistakenly believed that the platform was truly boundless and fought carelessly, it was very likely he would inadvertently step off the platform and lose the match.

Lu Yang thrust his sword towards Tao Yaoye, while activating the “Mind Seeing Method” to break the illusion.

Tao Yaoye felt the force transmitted from the Green Peak Sword through her closed red paper umbrella. She knew she couldn’t compete directly with Senior Brother Lu. Taking a light step, she retreated.

Lu Yang seized the opportunity and pursued continuously.

The red paper umbrella made of unknown material surprisingly withstood the continuous attacks of the Green Peak Sword.

Tao Yaoye tried every means to handle Lu Yang, hoping that he would inadvertently step off the platform. However, no matter how hard she tried, Lu Yang hovered around the edge of the platform without taking an extra step.

“You’ve seen through my illusion again!”

Tao Yaoye said hatefully. She was very confident in her illusion. Golden Core Stage cultivators could not see through it even if they knew they were caught in it. Only Lu Yang had managed to break through it in an instant.

“You’re doing very well, Junior Sister Tao. In the past, when you cast illusions, my technique would automatically start to break them. This time, I activated my technique consciously to break it.”

While Lu Yang praised her, his sword technique became more aggressive. Even though the red paper umbrella was made of special materials, Tao’s body couldn’t withstand the high-intensity combat. Each collision made her arms numb.

“Slash!”

The sword light converged and exploded in an instant, forming an arc in the air. Unable to withstand this move, Tao Yaoye was thrown sideways.

Tao Yaoye took the opportunity to distance herself from Lu Yang. As she opened the red paper umbrella and swung it in front of her, another Tao Yaoye appeared in its place.

Two Tao Yaoyes appeared on the scene, both holding red paper umbrellas, their smiles captivating yet indistinguishable.

“Senior Brother Lu, you wanted to know what kind of Golden Core I’ve formed, so please don’t use your magic skill.” Tao Yaoye sighed helplessly, her trick should have given her an advantage against anyone, but Lu Yang’s magic skill naturally countered hers.

Her sophisticated illusion skills were child’s play in the face of Lu Yang.

“I won’t use it then!”

True to his words, Lu Yang took out the Twin Lotus seeds, executed the Tree Growing Spell, and two of him appeared as the lotus bloomed.

The crowd was in an uproar. It was their first time witnessing such a Clone technique.

Lu Yang’s Junior Brothers and Sisters looked at him admiringly. True to his reputation, Senior Brother Lu’s magic skills were indeed not ordinary.

Both Lu Yangs attacked the two Tao Yaoyes simultaneously.

One of these two Tao Yaoyes must be an illusion clone, capable of using magic skills but unable to partake in physical contact. Hence, as soon as they engaged in combat, Lu Yang would know which one was the real Tao Yaoye, and which was fake.

“Thud–”

“Thud–”

Two collision sounds rang out, Lu Yang was slightly surprised. These two Tao Yaoyes were both capable of close-quarters combat.

Could it be that Junior Sister Tao learned the real Clone technique?

No, what Junior Sister Tao uses must be illusion magic, otherwise, she wouldn’t have asked me not to use my magic skills.

But if it’s an illusion, how could one explain the solid feel of both Juniors Sister Tao during their combat?

The Eldest Senior Sister, who had been watching the battle, nodded slightly, thinking that Tao Yaoye’s Golden Core was truly interesting as it was an unprecedented kind in history.

“One of them must be fake!” Lu Yang made the judgement, his sword dance echoing within the empty space, the sword light was like a dragon, and pierced towards one of the Tao Yaoyes.

Lu Yang’s Clone also attacked the other Tao Yaoye.

“Break!”

Lu Yang let out a loud shout, executed the Break spell, both Tao Yaoyes felt a flash of white before their eyes, followed by a cold sensation at their necks.

The Green Peak Sword was held against their throats.

Lu Yang frowned, even until the end of the battle, he couldn’t figure out which one was the real Tao Yaoye.

Having no choice, he could only use his absolute power to defeat both Tao Yaoyes.

A daring guess started to form in Lu Yang’s mind.

“So, Senior Brother Lu, have you figured it out?” Tao Yaoye, unperturbed by her loss, admitted that she couldn’t win against Lu Yang with his magic skill.

“A kind of Golden Core that has the ability to transition between reality and illusion?”

Tao Yaoye’s mouth opened slightly, not expecting that Lu Yang could roughly guess it.

“Close enough, this is a completely new kind of Golden Core.”

“When I use illusion, the biggest problem is that people can probe to see which is real and which is an illusion.”

“My Golden Core solves this problem.”

“For example, just now, both clones could either be real or fake, the key lies in how the opponent perceives them.”

“If you think both are real, then both are real, if you think both are fakes, both are fakes.”

“You weren’t sure which was real and which was fake, repeatedly probing, without a decisive answer in your mind, therefore both of them were me just now.”

“The only way is for you to decide one is real, the other is fake, and attack the one you think is real with all your might, only then will the illusion break.”

“This is my Golden Core, the Illusion-Reality Wish Pill.”

“Junior Brother.”

Lu Yang looked up, only to realize that the Eldest Senior Sister had also been watching the match.

Lu Yang jumped off the stage, stood obediently in front of the Eldest Senior Sister, with a flattering smile on his face: “Eldest Senior Sister, you’re back.”

Qin Yanyan was surprised, it was her first time seeing Lu Yang so tame.
