"I see." Lu Yang had learned new knowledge he couldn’t use for the moment.

"So there’s only one Dao fruit that has similar traits. That means if there is an immortal fairy like you, something like Immortal Dao fruit, Indestructible Dao fruit, or Eternity Dao fruit, they can only take the form of a seed, unable to mature into a full Dao fruit?"

"If Time Immortal is present, the mature Dao fruit related to time would also be just one?"

"That’s the principle"

Only then did Lu Yang realisze. No wonder they had to battle for ascension. This was like a fruit occupying the finish line, hueveryone aspired to reach that endpoint. The early bird gets the worm, and the latter ones who want to become immortals have to find another endpoint.

Because the immortals are powerful, semi-immortals could never risk offending the immortals or rebel against them.

"When I was a semi-immortal, there were four or five semi-immortal Dao fruits similar to mine, like the immature Immortal Dao fruit, immature Indestructible Dao fruit and so on that you mentioned."

"They heard that I could potentially pose a threat, so they called a group of people to strike, that was quite imposing, so frightful."

"Luckily I don’t bluff, defeating this bunch was a piece of cake."

Lu Yang though, "The fairy is potent. Even though she usually enjoys bullying lower ranking cultivators, when meeting the same level, she becomes an invincible existence just like me."

Otherwise, she couldn’t have produced the Invincible Elixir.

Generally speaking, the higher the Cultivation Level, the harder it is to determine the winner among the same rank.

Fairy Eternity, being able to confront four contenders at the semi-immortal stage, this battle power is definitely against the heaven.

"Fairy, how did you defeat them? Did you sacrifice yourself?"

Fairy Eternity waved her hand triumphantly: "No need for such trouble, I called over Yingtian Immortal and the other three to help me, all four of them had become immortals."

The result of four immortals fighting four semi-immortals is self-evident.

Lu Yang:"..."

Fairy, didn’t you use Invincible Elixir even after becoming a semi-immortal, did you?

"So Fairy, you were the last one to become immortal?" When it came to the time Fairy Eternity was a semi-immortal, Lu Yang recalled that she once mentioned that she was the last one to become an immortal.

Using the fact that Fairy Eternity, with her Golden Core Stage cultivation, stooped to conquer Yingtian Immortal and Immortal Jiuchong who were at the Foundation Establishment Stage, it can be deduced that Fairy’s cultivation progress was slightly faster.

"Originally, I should have been the first to become an immortal, but comments made by Time Immortal enlightned me I discarded my original immature Dao fruit, changed my plans, and began forging a brand new immature Dao fruit – it was the Immortal Dao fruit immature form, which delayed my process a little bit and allowed the other four to surpass me."

While Lu Yang was pondering this, Eldest Senior Sister’s cold voice reached his ear, startling him and making him feel an icy sensation running down his spine.

"Senior, were you once again talking about the Dao fruit with our Junior Brother?"

Lu Yang just realised that during his conversation with Fairy Eternity, Meng Jingzhou and the rest had left, and now only he and Eldest Senior Sister remain.

And Eldest Senior Sister was staring at him with an unhappy expression.

Fairy Eternity waved her hands vigorously, pointing at Lu Yang and replied: "Nope, it was Lu Yang who started asking me!"

Regardless of whether that was the truth, she had to clear herself of the responsibility first.

Lu Yang couldn’t possibly let Fairy Eternity tarnish his reputation, "Fairy started telling me. She said that looking at the Five Elements reminded her of what Immortal Jiuchong’s Dao fruit was. She then shared that knowledge with me!"

Arguments break out within the Indestructible Sect.

Eldest Senior Sister was momentarily stunned and asked: "What is Immortal Jiuchong’s Dao fruit?"

Eldest Senior Sister gained her knowledge about ancient times mainly from ancient books. Due to the immortality characteristic, although explicit records of the battles between immortals exist, any parts referring to the methods used by those immortals would be automatically erased. Eldest Senior Sister could only make conjectures based on the clues available.

𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Of course, those won’t be as accurate as the accounts of Fairy Eternity, who was involved in the events.

"Immortal Jiuchong has Yin Yang Dao Fruit; Qilin Immortal has Survival of the Fittest Dao Fruit."

Eldest Senior Sister gave a nod of approval, "This is almost akin to what I had speculated. This means out of the Five Immortals of the Ancients, you have the Indestructible Dao Fruit; Yingtian Immortal has the Tribulation Dao Fruit; Immortal Jiuchong has the Yin-Yang Dao Fruit; Time Immortal has the Time Dao Fruit, and Qilin Immortal has the Survival of the Fittest Dao fruit."

There were five people who attained immortality in a relatively short period, showing how flourishing that era was. No wonder in the current Great Era, people compare the Great Era to the Ancient times.

"Additionally, pay attention when you talk to the Senior. You are only in the Golden Core Stage and learning too much about Dao fruit in advance may not be too beneficial. Now, knowing about the cultivation methods during the Unification Stage, and Transcendence Tribulation Stage should be enough."

Lu Yang felt that even knowing the methods of the Unification Stage and Transcendence Tribulation Stage was not very beneficial, as these weren’t things that a practitioner at the Golden Core Stage should know about.

....

Two days later, with Meng Jingzhou leading the way and Lu Yang bringing up the rear, the five Seek Dao Sect’s new generation disciples headed 蜎 the Five Elements Sect.

Considering the dangerous nature of the Five Elements Sect, Old horse lacked the strength for this mission. Meng Jingzhou chose not to travel by carriage and decided to travel with Lu Yang and the others on a flying boat.

"I didn’t expect to ride the flying boat again so soon."

It’s been less than half a month since Lu Yang last rode a flying boat.

"Sorry I am late," Tao Yaoye was the last one to gather and managed to board just before the flying boat took off.

The Promotion Fantasy Realm of Stone Bone has been prepared earlier. She retrieved the Promotion Fantasy Realm and the remaining forty million Spirit Stones from the main branch of the barbeque shop with the Sixth Elder.

The Spirit Stones were for her, and the Sixth Elder handled the fusion of the Promotion Fantasy Realm and Dream Mirage. Sixth Elder located Uncle Ba and the Eighth Elder to handle it.

She almost missed the departing time due to the round trip.

Li Haoran watched all this play out, with jealousy burning in his heart. His peers were not only stronger in cultivation and had better natural talents, but they were also successful in their endeavors. If they were not directly successful, they still had inherited wealth, like Meng Jingzhou and Man Gu.

But if he looked at himself - having nothing to his name - if he were to recover his previous identity and become the Master of the Nine Nether Sect, it might turn out to be even worse.

As his Cultivation Level increased, Li Haoran retrieved half of Qin Haoran’s memories. And the more memories he retrieved, the harder he realized Qin Haoran’s life had been.

It was inevitable that within these memories, there were instances of Qin Haoran’s passionate encounters with Su Yiren....

At this point, Li Haoran didn’t feel that Qin Haoran’s life was difficult at all.

Hearing Li Haoran’s complaints, Lu Yang comforted him sincerely: "Junior Brother Li, don’t underestimate yourself. Your potential is no less than mine. If one day you could inherit Qin Haoran’s identity, there is one aspect where you could me."

Li Haoran ignited hope and looked at Lu Yang expectantly : "What is it?"

"Your enemy is roughly equal to mine. Qin Haoran’s enemies are at the Unification Stage, and whenever I go out, I often encounter those at the Unification Stage as an opponent."

Li Haoran: "..."

Please no. Lu Yang, you have a way with trouble and ironically, troubles seem to turn out to be blessings for you. I am not as capable as you.

Fortunately, nothing major occurred during the journey, and the group safely reached the Five Elements Sect.

They hadn’t even disembarked from the ship when they noticed that the members of the Five Elements Sect had lined up at the gate to welcome them. Especially outstanding were the ones that looked like elders, clenched magic artifacts in their hands, possessed a fierce expression, and watched the landing ship with intense focus.
