Who Let Him Cultivate?!

Chapter 412: Chapter 411: It seems that the power of Seven Emotions Valley is not mediocre_1

“Why haven’t I encountered these sorts of things!” Meng Jingzhou regretted, feeling like he missed a golden opportunity.

I despise you, Lu Yang, for robbing me of it, a grudge that cannot be resolved!

“It’s all destiny, just accept it.” Lu Yang consoled.

“Get lost!” Meng Jingzhou snapped, wondering why all the good things happened to Lu Yang.

Neither Lu Yang nor Meng Jingzhou had any intention of fighting, all of Zhao Po’s worries were for nothing.

“Who’s this person you brought back?” Meng Jingzhou asked, pointing his lips at Zhao Po.

Fearing that Lu Yang would mock him again, Zhao Po hastily introduced himself: “I am Zhao Po, runner-up in the Corpse Chasing Sect competition, at the early stage of the Golden Core.”

Meng Jingzhou was surprised, Zhao Po seemed similar in age and at most just a year older, but such talents could only rank second in Corpse Chasing Sect?

If Zhao Po came to their Seek Dao Sect, he could achieve the sixth place.

“You’re only the second in the Corpse Chasing Sect with your skills?”

On this topic, Zhao Po smiled bitterly: “I hate to admit it, but Senior Brother Huang Ming is indeed slightly better than me, especially in terms of combat awareness. In that battle, I used all my tricks, but Senior Brother Huang Ming was still unfazed, he was always prepared.”

“Senior Brother Huang Ming has always been more outstanding than me, every time we complete a mission, he always takes the lead. When others are still looking for clues, he has already killed the hidden enemies.”

“Senior Brother Huang Ming has no parents since he was a child, he’s an orphan with a solitary personality, unwilling to interact with others.”

Zhao Po shook his head in regret, he wanted to share cultivation insights with Senior Brother Huang Ming for mutual progress, but alas, Huang Ming didn’t like to talk much even to him who ranked second.

“Senior Brother Huang Ming has taken the Sect Leader as his master, it will be even harder to see him in the future.”

“Is he that strong?” Lu Yang’s evaluation of Huang Ming went up a notch. He thought that Huang Ming and Zhao Po were on the same level, but from what Zhao Po said, it seemed they were far apart in strength?

“Not to mention me, I heard that Senior Brother Meng is cursed and can’t be near women?”

Meng Jingzhou hesitated for a moment: “It seems I couldn’t be close to women even before I was cursed.”

Zhao Po consoled: “Don’t be disheartened, Senior Brother Meng. A sage once said, ‘To become a great tool, one must first suffer his mind, his muscles and bones, his body skin, empty his body, and act against his will. Therefore, he motivates his heart to endure his nature, and aids what he cannot do.’

Meng Jingzhou laughed, the more he looked at Zhao Po the more he liked him: “Good, a genius from the Corpse Chasing Sect sure knows how to speak. I’ll consider you my friend. If you ever find yourself in trouble in the Imperial City, just mention my name, Meng Jingzhou!”

Zhao Po: “…”

He had a feeling that something was not quite right in the last sentence. Did he mishear it?

“To be precise, my curse prevents me from getting close to women. I heard that many cultivators in the Wild State are skilled in curse arts, and the Corpse Chasing Sect is a major sect there. I plan to ask your sect for possible solutions.”

Zhao Po thought for a moment and earnestly said, “In that case, I would recommend you to visit the Seven Emotions Valley instead.”

“Seven Emotions Valley?” Like Lu Yang, Meng Jingzhou’s understanding of the Seven Emotions Valley was restricted to knowing that such a sect existed.

“Our Corpse Chasing Sect is indeed proficient in the orthodox corpse-driving technique, but when it comes to curses, we are far less accomplished than the Seven Emotions Valley. In our Wild State, whenever someone is cursed, the first suspicion usually falls on the people of the Seven Emotions Valley.”

“But the Seven Emotions Valley is in a semi-concealed state, so people from other places know very little about it.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Lu Yang nodded, confirming his thoughts: “It seems that the strength of the Seven Emotions Valley is extraordinary and can be compared with your Corpse Chasing Sect.”

Zhao Po was amazed. How did Senior Brother Lu know this? Even he only learned it from the Elder after he became second in the sect competition and got promoted.

“A sect of lesser strength might have been annihilated long ago.”

Zhao Po admitted that Lu Yang was quite right.

“Let’s go to the Seven Emotions Valley then. It’s close by anyway.” Lu Yang looked at the map. By Old Horse’s speed, they could reach in less than half a day.

“It’s here.” Lu Yang pointed to the location on the map and Old Horse snorted in response.

Zhao Po was very surprised. To him, Old Horse is just an ordinary horse. How could it understand human feelings so well?

Perhaps this involved the secrets of the two senior brothers, so he didn’t ask further.

He’s not someone who likes asking too many questions. It’s normal for a cultivator to have secrets. For example, during the journey, he felt that something was off about Brother Ye and Brother Wenren. But he didn’t question them and ended up witnessing the scene where the two disguised as men, fell in love with each other and took advantage of the unsuspecting.

The trio rode on the horse cart while Zhao Po had the living corpse squat on top to observe the surroundings and deter petty thieves.

Corpse-drivers hold a high status in the Wild State. Those who die away from their hometown need corpse-drivers to drive their corpses back home for peace. Bandits and aggressive robbers, upon seeing a living corpse here and realizing there’s a corpse-driver on the cart, would voluntarily abandon their target.

On the horse cart, Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou asked several questions about the corpse-driving technique.

“I’ve been wondering for a long time, living corpses do not have consciousness and essentially are just objects, so why not transport them in storage rings instead of having to stay in inns?”

“In practice, living corpses indeed can be considered objects and can be put in storage rings. But as corpse-drivers, we believe that they are alive, just existing in a state that cultivators cannot perceive. Since they are alive, we should treat them as living beings. We eat, sleep and travel together. When asking them to fight, we use the word ‘please’.”

Zhao Po smiled bitterly, “It’s because our corpse-drivers have a unique view of life and death that there are rumors out there saying that the founder of Nine Nether Sect was from our Corpse Chasing Sect.”

Zhao Po explained various things about corpse-drivers to the others, giving a much more authentic account than others.

In less than half a day, the trio and the living corpse arrived at the Seven Emotions Valley smoothly.

“I have a friend in Seven Emotions Valley who is an official disciple and very good at breaking curses. When I was cursed, I went to my friend. Your curse, Senior Brother Meng, as long as it’s below the Nascent Soul level, my friend can handle it. It can be a bit uncertain at the Divinity Transformation level. But even if he can’t break it, he can at least alleviate it.”

Meng Jingzhou hesitated for a moment, then said, “Conservatively estimated, it’s at a half-step Pass Tribulation level.”

After all, he shared the curse with Sect Leader Qiu, reducing its power.

Zhao Po leaned slightly backwards in surprise and respect.

When he had troubles outside, he usually clashed with seniors in the Golden Core stage, and rarely met Nascent Soul stage enemies. He never encountered Divinity Transformation stage even once.

Should I say, the peerless genius of the Seek Dao Sect, even the curse you’re afflicted with is at half-step Pass Tribulation level?

What did you do to be cursed at this level?

Even if you slapped the Valley Master of Seven Emotions Valley twice, you shouldn’t receive such a high-level curse.

Lu Yang thought to himself, that’s just the start, the enemies we two brothers deal with are all at the Unification stage at the very least. We don’t even bother with anyone below that level.
