Do You Still Need to Fake Your Death After Becoming an Immortal?

After listening to Man Gu's vision, an image involuntarily surfaced in Lu Yang's mind:

Under the dark, silent night sky, the campfire was the only source of light in the desolate forest, crackling and emitting sounds that only accentuated the stillness of the woods.

A goat, gutted and gutted, its body smeared with strange herbs, stands on a campfire, dancing a nonsensical dance, like a sacrifice to an evil god.

This scene is truly bizarre, exceeding humanity's current ability to appreciate art.

"What a brilliant idea! No wonder they're barbarians; their way of thinking is already very similar to their ancestors'!" The Immortal Fairy exclaimed excitedly, slapping her thigh. She vaguely saw the shadow of an old friend in the Man Gu.

"You know what, those barbarians may be all muscle and not very bright, but when it comes to food, they have a lot of ideas!"

"The main reason is that the barbarians have a high degree of autonomy and initiative, and are full of creativity. Of course, I'm not taking credit for this, but I did contribute a little bit." The Immortal Fairy gestured with her thumb and forefinger.

Lu Yang felt that the Immortal Fairy, as the mentor of the Ancient Barbarian Tribe, was being too modest.

"Fairy, do you have Law Technique to control corpses?"

The Immortal Fairy pondered for a moment, "Does the Feigning Death technique count? This is a celestial technique that the Dragon and Phoenix clans are vying to learn; it's conservatively estimated to be useful until the Tribulation Transcendence stage."

"... It doesn't count."

"No, that won't happen."

Lu Yang thought of another question, "Fairy, have you ever used the art of feigning death after you became an immortal?"

He felt that the art of feigning death was something the Immortal Fairy used when she was weak; after becoming an immortal, she claimed to be the head of the Five High Antiquity Immortals, so she shouldn't need to use it.

"I've used it."

"Huh? You've become an immortal, why are you pretending to be dead?"

When this topic came up, the Immortal Fairy blushed slightly, and chuckled shyly twice.

"You know I can't save money; I spend it all recklessly. I quickly ran out of Spirit Stone stones and became destitute."

"I'm too embarrassed to ask the believers for Spirit Stone, after all, I'm a believer."

"What if we run out of money? I quickly came up with a solution."

"I'll use the art of feigning death to pretend I'm dead, and then Ying Tianxian and the other three will come to mourn me and give me Spirit Stone, which will make me rich."

"I've used this trick several times, and it works quite well."

Lu Yang: "..."

This whole thing is so ridiculous, he doesn't even know where to begin complaining.

"There's one more thing. Can the Ancient Barbarian Tribe bloodline of Man Gu be temporarily sealed? We were lucky this time, only attracting Golden Core stage Demon Beast. We won't be so lucky next time. If we attract Nascent Soul Realm Demon Beast, it will be terrible."

Lu Yang was deeply worried. If they really encountered Nascent Soul Realm Demon Beast, even Huang Doudou's fist might not be able to hold them off. The four of them would have to use a teleportation talisman to return to the Demon Suppression Pass.

"It's alright, Man Gu doesn't need to temporarily seal his bloodline. Didn't you notice at the end of the battle that Man Gu was already able to suppress the armored Demon Beast with his bloodline?"

"This means that Man Gu's Ancient Barbarian Tribe bloodline can suppress demonic Demon Beast at the Golden Core stage and below. Golden Core stage demonic Demon Beast will not even have time to run away when they encounter Man Gu, while Nascent Soul Realm demonic Demon Beast will not be affected by Man Gu's Ancient Barbarian Tribe bloodline."

"However, if Man Gu advances to the Golden Core stage, that would be a different story."

The Immortal Fairy's analysis was very logical and insightful. In terms of professional expertise, she never faltered, after all, she was the one who created the Ancient Barbarian Tribe.

Lu Yang breathed a sigh of relief, relieved of a worry; otherwise, he would have been living in constant fear in the dense forest for the next few months.

"Do you want your hair to grow back? I have a way," the Immortal Fairy said with a grin.

"What method?"

"I have a ginger-based martial art. Once you learn it, you'll grow a head of thick, black hair!"

To be honest, Lu Yang was tempted, but considering the unreliability of the Immortal Fairy, and the unreliable name of her fist technique, he hesitated.

There's something wrong with how I look at it.

"Never mind, my hair will grow back in ten days to two weeks."

Normal hair doesn't grow this fast. Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou stimulate their scalps with Spiritual Qi every night to increase hair growth, and the effect is remarkable.

In reality, the four were eating freshly roasted lion meat, Man Gu was gnawing on the lion's head.

"As expected of lion meat from Golden Core cultivator, it's so tender and juicy."

"Lu Yang's technique with real fire is also excellent. Usually, this kind of barbecue will result in a charred outer skin while the inside is still raw. However, under Lu Yang's precise control, the real fire simultaneously sears the outer skin and the meat inside, ensuring that the inside and outside are cooked at the same degree. He is better than me in this respect," Meng Jingzhou analyzed. In terms of using real fire, he is not as good as Lu Yang.

He hasn't even mastered a single type of true fire, so he's definitely no match for Lu Yang.

In fact, single Spirit Root come with a kind of true fire called Pure Yang True Fire, which can suppress all ghosts and demons, and can be automatically mastered after reaching the Golden Core stage.

This was originally an extraordinary talent, but compared to Lu Yang, it didn't seem so extraordinary.

The four of them, having eaten and drunk their fill, prepared to rest.

"How about I take the first half of the night shift with Junior Sister Tao, and Meng Jingzhou and Man Gu take the second half?"

"Good."

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou had experience spending the night in dense forests, so they would definitely have to take turns on night shifts.

If Tao Yaoye and Man Gu were placed together, and an unexpected incident occurred, such as an attack by Demon Beast or a human, the two of them might not be able to react in time.

In the dense forest, dangers lie not only with Demon Beast, but also with humans.

While spending the night in the dense forest with the Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain, Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou encountered a sneak attack by humans.

Fortunately, the opponent's cultivation level was mediocre, and Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou quickly dispatched him.

As Lu Yang began his night shift, he noticed that Tao Yaoye immediately used her Divine Sense to probe the surroundings and reminded her, "Don't keep your Divine Sense constantly open. If you use it like that, it will quickly become depleted."

"The night is still long, how long can you keep this up?"

Don't even mention that Tao Yaoye can't use her Divine Sense like this; even Lu Yang, whose Divine Sense is comparable to that of the Golden Core stage, wouldn't dare to use it like this.

"Then what should we do?" Tao Yaoye obediently withdrew her Divine Sense.

"Use your eyes to see, use your ears to hear, and engage all five senses to observe your surroundings."

"You might not get used to it at first, but with your talent, you'll learn this method very easily after a few tries."

"Once you learn it, it will be very useful in battle."

"Don't rely too much on Divine Sense, or you'll easily fall into the opponent's trap." This was a saying that the Immortal Fairy taught Lu Yang, and now Lu Yang is passing it on to Tao Yaoye.

Tao Yaoye nodded and, following Lu Yang's instructions, focused on observing the surrounding movements.

Neither of them spoke again; they simply sat quietly.

As night fell, they took turns sleeping in pairs. Tao Yaoye jumped onto a tree, lay down, and fell asleep in a very leisurely posture.

Seeing this scene, Lu Yang couldn't help but recall the first time he and Tao Yaoye did the Painted Skin Ghost mission and stayed overnight at the Shang family's house. Tao Yaoye even complained that the Shang family's bed was not as comfortable as the bed at the Ask Dao Sect, and that she couldn't sleep.

"I'm not the only one growing up."

The second update will be posted before 11 PM.
