Who Let Him Cultivate?!

Chapter 291: 290: The Art of Equivalent Exchange_1



Two single golden cores, even Shi Dudao did not dare to have such a thing, it was truly unprecedented.

He organized his words in his heart, expressing gently, “Two single Golden Cores, are you sure it won’t make your singleness more intense?”

Meng Jingzhou nonchalantly waved his hand, “You don’t understand, it’s like when something reaches the extreme, it turns to the other extreme. My golden core has reached the extreme of singleness, now it should turn towards a good direction, become more lucky with women. This was apparent when I was flying back on the flying ship.”

“What happened then?”

“While on the flying ship, there was an upstart from a small place bullying others just because he has some spare change. I didn’t like it. I flashed my identity as the Young Master of the Meng Family, which scared him so much that he knelt and begged for mercy. At that moment, several decent-looking women gathered around me, attracted by my charm.”

“…you’ve hypnotized yourself quite intensely.”

As if he hasn’t heard Lu Yang’s sarcasm, Meng Jingzhou’s eyes were glowing, as if a bright future was right before him, “Anyway, I have broken the curse of being single in every generation of Single Body Spiritual Root and I’m about to start a new life!”

“Eh, this little guy’s golden core is interesting.” Fairy Eternity’s voice rang out at just the right moment, successfully drawing Lu Yang’s attention.

“Fairy, what do you mean?” Lu Yang wondered if Meng Jingzhou had indeed broken the curse of Single Body Spiritual Root from previous generations?

“Have you heard of a kind of curse magic skill?” Fairy Eternity asked mysteriously.

Lu Yang shook his head. Besides the curse Fairy Eternity put on the Ancient Barbarian Tribe, he hadn’t heard of any curse magic skill.

“This magic skill, although called a curse, is essentially an exchange, or a rule. Some people call it the ‘Equivalent Exchange Spell’. Using this type of magic skill, you lose something and gain something else.”

“For instance, you, Lu Yang, are very smart, right? So, you can use the Equivalent Exchange Spell, reduce your intelligence to gain unmatched combat power!”

“That’s amazing!” Lu Yang was quite astonished.

Fairy Eternity was very pleased with Lu Yang’s astonishment: “Hehe, now you know how knowledgeable I am. I presume no one in your era knows this spell, you’re the first!”

“Fairy, do you know this spell?” Lu Yang showed great interest in the spell. If he could learn it, wouldn’t he be able to exchange whatever he wanted and thus be invincible?

Fairy Eternity shook her head, pouring cold water on Lu Yang: “No one can learn this spell. Or rather, anyone aiming to learn it will never succeed.”

Lu Yang was puzzled by this strange logic. So if someone doesn’t want to learn the spell, can they master it?

“Yes, the ones who don’t want to learn this spell will master it.”

Fairy Eternity continued: “The ‘Equivalent Exchange Spell’ doesn’t require learning. When the opportunity comes, one naturally grasps it.”

“And the practitioners often don’t realize they have used this spell.”

“This is like the first person in the Human Race’s history to use a spell. They didn’t deliberately learn or use it, but due to a combination of various factors, the spell was naturally unleashed.”

“I see.” Lu Yang was clearly a little disappointed, as he thought he could learn a new spell.

Suddenly, Lu Yang realized something was wrong. The topic had strayed a long way off: “Wait, weren’t we discussing Meng Jingzhou’s Golden Core? How did we end up discussing the Equivalent Exchange Spell?”

“We haven’t deviated. I didn’t think about it earlier as it wasn’t very obvious. But now that I look at it, this Meng kid has already used the Equivalent Exchange Spell.”

“How?”

Fairy Eternity carefully analyzed, unravelling the secret of the Single Body Spiritual Root: “Why is the Single Body Spiritual Root strong? It’s because it sacrifices its singleness to gain incredible cultivation talent and strength, which is a bona fide Equivalent Exchange Spell!”

“If a typical Single Body Spiritual Root has a relationship with a woman, the price is losing its pure Yang body and its Cultivation Level will no longer increase. But if it undergoes enhancement by two single Golden Cores as this Meng Kid did, then if he has a relationship with a woman, his Cultivation Level will plummet!”

“This Meng kid strengthened the ‘singles’ property of his spiritual root, exchanging his resolve with an unbeatable power blindly. Among all Single Body Spiritual Roots in previous generations, he should be the strongest!”

Lu Yang’s eyelid twitched in consideration. If Meng Jingzhou knew about this, he would be regretting it deeply. He kindly asked, “Is there a solution?”

“Yes. The Equivalent Exchange Spell cannot manifest in an Immortal. If the Meng kid became an Immortal, it would solve the problem.”

“…”

Regardless of whether Meng Jingzhou could become an Immortal, if he could, it would still take a monkey’s age to cultivate into one, right?

Dating back to the Great Era, only five immortals emerged. No one knows how many there have been in the past 300,000 years and the Eldest Senior Sister did not tell him.

Reaching Immortality was harder than reaching the sky.

Lu Yang pondered, “So, Meng Jingzhou exchanged the happiness of his lower body for powerful strength for the rest of his life.”

Impressive.

“Hmm, why are you looking at me with such eyes?” Meng Jingzhou felt Lu Yang’s gaze towards him was strange, hard to describe… was it pity?

Meng Jingzhou stretched lazily, “I’ve just formed the Golden Core, and haven’t had enough fighting in the forest. Watch me go to the arena.”

Having formed an unprecedented pair of single Golden Cores, he naturally had to show off a bit.

Before Lu Yang even reacted, Meng Jingzhou settled the bill and left, heading towards the bustling arena not far away.

At this time, the fight on the arena had just ended. Both fighters stepped down, and Meng Jingzhou jumped onto the stage, radiant like a small sun, “Haha, I’ve just formed the Golden Core. Which senior brother or sister wants to have a match?”

Meng Jingzhou felt that being at the Foundation Establishment Stage before, he couldn’t beat his senior brothers and sisters. Now that they were all at the Golden Core Stage, he couldn’t still possibly lose, right?

“I’ll come.” A bald senior brother, who appeared to have partially formed a Golden Body in the Buddhism Sect, jumped onto the arena, smiled kindly, “Senior Brother Meng, please show mercy.”

The bald senior brother was named Zheng Jing, whose Cultivation Level was at the late Golden Core Stage, not standing out among the numerous Golden Core Stage senior brothers.

“Haha, Senior Brother, don’t hold back. I’m not the same person anymore.” Meng Jingzhou laughed heartily.

Soon, Lu Yang used his Wooden Avatar to lift Meng Jingzhou down from the stage with a stretcher.

“A perfectly good person, why insist on inviting death?” Lu Yang sighed, feeling glad he had the Invincible Elixir, which allowed him to know who he could beat and who he couldn’t.

Otherwise, he could end up like Meng Jingzhou, being carried off the stage.

If Meng Jingzhou was still in the Foundation Establishment Stage, Senior Brother Zheng wouldn’t have been so harsh. Now that Meng Jingzhou had formed his Golden Core and had increased strength and recovery rate, Senior Brother Zheng naturally hit harder.

As Lu Yang was about to carry Meng Jingzhou away, three figures blocked their way.

Lu Yang looked up and recognized these familiar faces: Master Liu and Master Gao from the barbecue shop.

“Please come with us.”
