Who Let Him Cultivate Immortality

Chapter 481: Why are there so many people in the treasure chest?

"Grandpa Ba, this old book of yours..."

Lu Yang's expression was peculiar. He had overheard the conversation just now; the old book contained information about the King of Hundred Medicines.

Isn't the King of Hundred Medicines you, Grandpa Ba?

Are you writing an autobiography?

Grandpa Ba didn't feel embarrassed at all and openly admitted, "I'm just thinking about the battle in Hanshui City where we showcased the might of our Heavenly Court Sect. It's a good opportunity to promote myself."

He thought the Dou Heavenly Sovereign who appeared in Hanshui City was orchestrated by the eldest senior sister.

"I planned to leak some information to the outside world, so they would know the mystery and power of our Heavenly Court Sect."

"Look at this book, it's old enough, right? I specifically borrowed an artifact related to time magic from the Fifth Elder to make this book look old."

As one of the notorious Nine Sons of Seek Tao Sect, Grandpa Ba was cautious in his actions, always going the extra mile to deceive others.

Time magic is extremely difficult to cultivate; without enough comprehension, it's impossible to learn.

"No, the Fifth Elder isn't that capable. He accidentally refined a piece of cloth that can alter the time of the things it wraps around. He treasures it a lot. If it weren't for me and the Great Elder stepping in together, he wouldn't have lent it!" Grandpa Ba grumbled, dissatisfied with the Fifth Elder's stinginess.

He didn't consider that when he was guarding the herb garden, he was even stingier than the Fifth Elder. If someone picked a couple of herbs, it was like taking his life.

"The Great Elder is involved too?"

What can I say? After learning this news, Lu Yang wasn't surprised at all.

He even felt it was only natural.

"Let's go, capture everyone we don't recognize."

The eldest senior sister didn't mind Grandpa Ba's actions. His behavior wouldn't cause any danger or tarnish the reputation of Seek Tao Sect, fitting the criteria for holding an event.

Moreover, there were more important things to do now.

She decided to capture everyone and figure out what these unfamiliar cultivators were up to.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Let's go!" With the eldest senior sister around, Lu Yang felt emboldened. As the agent of the acting sect master, capturing a few Body Fusion stage cultivators was no big deal.

The senior sister and brother duo, holding the Light Confining Box, rampaged through Seek Tao Sect, capturing all the unfamiliar cultivators into the box.

Even those in the Tribulation Crossing stage were no exception.

The Light Confining Box was a supreme treasure passed down for a hundred thousand years in the Moon Laurel Immortal Palace. Empowered by generations of Palace Masters and Great Elders, it was incredibly powerful, capable of containing even those in the Tribulation Crossing stage.

However, those in the Tribulation Crossing stage could easily escape from the box.

...

The Black and White Venerable was enveloped in a beam of light, thinking his identity was exposed. His eyes turned fierce as he struggled desperately, but in front of the Light Confining Box, he could only obediently go inside.

As soon as he entered, he saw Great Xia cultivators beating up his subordinates. Although they weren't hitting hard, the humiliation was intense. His subordinates fought back desperately, only to receive heavier punches in return.

Seventeen or eighteen Great Yu Body Fusion stage cultivators were beaten, lying on the ground, their fates unknown.

"Damn it, we were exposed after all!"

This couldn't possibly be the hospitality of Seek Tao Sect.

Most of the notable figures from Great Xia were here. Their information must have somehow leaked, allowing Seek Tao Sect to catch them off guard and set up an ambush in the box to capture them all!

"What a brilliant scheme." The Black and White Venerable's voice was icy. The national teacher was right; Seek Tao Sect was indeed an obstacle to Great Yu's restoration.

But so what? He, a dignified late-stage Tribulation Crossing cultivator, couldn't possibly be trapped in this broken box, could he?

He flipped his hands, and black and white orbs appeared in his palms, slowly rotating, containing infinite destructive power.

Qiu Jin'an and Yang Ding, who were about to make a move, quickly retreated upon seeing the black and white orbs.

This person was definitely not in the Body Fusion stage!

The Black and White Venerable's lips curled into a cold smile. A few Body Fusion stage cultivators dared to surround him, not knowing their limits?

Suddenly, he felt a sense of danger. An old monk approached slowly, with a compassionate expression, radiating a great Buddha light.

Another elder sat up from the ground, with purple energy coming from the east for three thousand miles, like a ribbon, held in his hand. He was the ancestor of the Qi Control Sect, the One Qi Venerable.

Pieces of wood scattered on the ground floated in the air, assembling into a wooden figure. He was the Supreme Elder of the Puppet Sect, the Puppet Venerable.

One by one, powerful figures stood up, exuding an aura beyond the Body Fusion stage.

For the 120,000-year celebration of Seek Tao Sect, they naturally invited Tribulation Crossing stage seniors to observe.

They all came to mock Master Jie Sha. Unable to find him, they went to find Luo Hongxia, only to be captured into the box and beaten by Master Jie Sha.

There were only so many Tribulation Crossing stage cultivators. A sudden appearance of an unknown Tribulation Crossing stage cultivator naturally warranted a thorough interrogation.

"Everyone, attack!" Lu Baqian called out, and several Tribulation Crossing stage cultivators attacked simultaneously.

The Black and White Venerable showed a look of despair.

Seek Tao Sect was indeed well-prepared!

He had fallen into their trap!

...

"We've captured almost everyone." Yun Zhi and Lu Yang walked around a few times. Now, only familiar faces were outside.

"Let's go in and interrogate them."

Yun Zhi was confident. She had captured so many people; even if one or two didn't tell the truth, could they all lie?

A beam of light enveloped the two, and they entered the box.

"Dao friends, more people have come in. Attack!" Lu Baqian shouted as soon as he saw someone enter, calling everyone to attack together.

He charged at the front, not noticing that the people behind him seemed to recall something unpleasant, showing slightly fearful expressions, and stopped in their tracks.

"Yun, Yun Zhi?" Lu Baqian also realized, abruptly stopping.

"Why are there so many people?" Yun Zhi was also surprised. She thought the box was filled with unfamiliar cultivators.

Lu Yang's eyes darted around, observing his surroundings.

The unfamiliar cultivators were all tied up, even the three Tribulation Crossing stage cultivators they had captured.

One of the Tribulation Crossing stage cultivators was honestly recounting the events.

"I confess, I confess everything."

"We are Great Yu cultivators, following the national teacher's orders. Taking advantage of the celebration, we infiltrated Seek Tao Sect to kill Lu Yang and then destroy the entire sect."

"Our companions are all here, captured by you."

Lu Yang's expression was peculiar, unsure what expression to show.

So these unfamiliar cultivators were Great Yu cultivators. That was somewhat expected, but why were they suddenly trying to kill me?

Has my identity as the young sect master of the Heavenly Court Sect been exposed?

"Why are you all here?" Yun Zhi was puzzled.

Lu Baqian stepped forward to explain, with an expression as if he had anticipated this scene, "It's a long story. We received information that Great Yu cultivators would infiltrate Seek Tao Sect, so I gathered dao friends here to ambush them!"

"Yes, yes, that's exactly what happened."

"We've been ambushing for a long time, finally catching them."

Everyone nodded, proving Lu Baqian was telling the truth.

What else could they say? That they traveled thousands of miles to mock the sect masters of the four major immortal sects, only to be caught and beaten?

They couldn't afford to lose face like that.

Apparently, they still thought the Great Yu cultivators were let in by Luo Hongxia.

Out of respect for the seniors, Yun Zhi didn't expose their lies.

Qiu Jin'an and the others also didn't expose the lies, having already beaten them, they decided to give them some face.

The Great Yu cultivators were filled with regret upon hearing this.

I knew it was an ambush!

The Black and White Venerable, with the highest cultivation, was very unconvinced. Things hadn't reached a dead end yet: "So what if you have more people? Once the national teacher makes a move, you're all finished!"
