Lu Yang even suspected the Senior Brother who shouted Tai Chi Diagram was a shill hired by Old Meng.

Jiang Lianyi watched in amazement, she had witnessed many geniuses in Ancient Times and their cultivation philosophies, yet it was her first time hearing about the Tai Chi Diagram of Yi Yang, was this the cultivation philosophy of thirty thousand years later?

No wonder the current Phoenix Tribe wasn’t doing as well as the Human race, their thinking wasn’t as advanced as humans’.

The other phenomena were bought by Meng Jingzhou with money, but the Pure Yang Tai Chi Diagram formed by the two Nascent Souls was an authentic and genuine phenomenon.

Lu Yang felt relieved that he hadn’t had any intentions when he formed his Nascent Soul, if there really had been a phenomenon, it probably would have been the Invincible Nascent beating himself up.

That would have been embarrassingly humiliating.

Oh no, wait, that would be Young Sect Master Lu making a fool of himself, nothing to do with him.

Jiang Lianyi pondered thoughtfully, noticing another difference in Meng Jingzhou, "It’s my first time seeing someone with two Nascent Souls."

Lu Yang was curious, "Weren’t there cultivators who refined two Nascent Souls in Ancient Times?"

Jiang Lianyi shook her head slightly, "During the Golden Core Stage, there were a few people who refined two Golden Cores, but those two Golden Cores had different properties. By the time they cultivated to the Nascent Soul Stage, according to the law of Yin and Yang conservation, they would merge into one Golden Core, then break the core to reach Nascent, achieving a Nascent Soul."

"Do you know why the Nascent Soul Stage is not called the Baby Stage, but has ’Nascent’ prefixed to it?"

"Please enlighten me, Elder."

"’Nascent’ means beginning, first, or foremost. Simply put, Nascent Soul Stage means the initial phase of an infant."

"So?"

"So this little guy named Meng isn’t at the Nascent Soul Stage, he’s at the Dual Nascent Stage."

Lu Yang’s eyes twitched slightly, Elder Lianyi’s naming skill was on par with Fairy Eternity.

Fairy Eternity nodded in the Spiritual Space, "Dual Nascent Stage is a good name, perfectly fitting the reality!"

Lu Yang: "..."

At the very least, call it the Repeated Nascent Stage.

What realm Meng Jingzhou was called didn’t matter to him, but he himself was a Dual Nascent.

The two Nascent Souls whooshed into the Abode, various phenomena transformed into petal flurries, raining down petals in a stunningly beautiful display.

Meng Jingzhou’s lips curled into a smile as he pushed open the door of the Abode, looking refreshed and clearly happy about his breakthrough into the Nascent Soul Stage.

Only Lu Yang knew he was happy about the perfect conclusion of his performance.

"Congratulations, Junior Brother Meng, breaking core to reach Nascent—your future is boundless!"

"Dual Nascent Souls, unheard of! Junior Brother Meng, you have pioneered a historical first, you really stand out!"

"Congrats to Senior Brother Meng for achieving Nascent Soul, we will all look up to Senior Brother Meng as our idol and strive forward courageously!"

"You’re all exaggerating, dear Senior Brothers, Senior Sisters, Junior Brothers, and Junior Sisters. I’m merely at the ordinary Nascent Soul Stage, I don’t deserve such excessive praise."

While he verbally declined, Meng Jingzhou’s heart was almost blooming with laughter.

Once most of the crowd had left, Lu Yang and Jiang Lianyi approached.

"Old Lu, you’re here. Did you see my performance just now? Bet you regret advancing earlier and missing out on this kind of treatment," Meng Jingzhou boasted to Lu Yang with pride.

Calls you an ungrateful brat for advancing first.

When he saw Jiang Lianyi next to Lu Yang, his expression slightly changed, and he quickly greeted her, "I have seen Elder Lianyi."

Even though Jiang Lianyi had changed her appearance, Meng Jingzhou wasn’t stupid; the person beside Lu Yang must be Jiang Lianyi.

Hearing Meng Jingzhou say this, Old Ma ran over, spouting human language, "I have seen the Phoenix Ancestor!"

The legendary Phoenix Tribe, the first under the Demon Immortals, he thought he would never meet the Phoenix Ancestor in his life, only to encounter her here!

"Damn, Old Ma, you can talk?" Meng Jingzhou was surprised, as it was the first time he had heard Old Ma speak, although they had known each other for years.

Jiang Lianyi glanced at Old Ma, "A Demon King level, is this youngster your Protector?"

Old Ma dared not hide anything, confessing everything, "By my brother’s trust, before he returns home to be killed by our brother, I must not let others kill him."

Meng Jingzhou: "..."

Old man, are you holding a grudge for too long? I’ve almost forgotten what I did.

Luckily, Meng Jingzhou wasn’t one to hold grudges. He quickly pushed aside the old man’s resentments and started discussing his Nascent Soul Stage breakthrough with Lu Yang.

"Old Meng, congratulations, Elder Lianyi said she’s never seen anyone with dual Nascent Souls before. It’s unprecedented, so instead of calling it the Nascent Soul Stage, we should call it the Dual Nascent Stage."

Meng Jingzhou really wanted to say what a terrible name that was, but considering it was named by the Phoenix Ancestor, and the Phoenix Ancestor was right there, he wouldn’t dare criticize it even if he borrowed courage from someone else.

"...Good name."

"How is it, what unusual changes have you felt after reaching the Nascent Soul Stage?" Lu Yang asked, excited. With two kids now, it must be different from the ordinary Nascent Soul Stage.

"Let’s not talk about strength, that’s certainly increased, but the most important thing is I feel a change in my blood."

"A change in the blood, what kind of change?"

Meng Jingzhou said sternly with a straight face, "It can invigorate yang."

"...Any other changes?" Lu Yang looked at Meng Jingzhou oddly; Old Meng wasn’t too far from becoming Monk’s Meat.

"There should be, but I haven’t found them yet, it requires gradual exploration."

The Invincible Nascent Soul had Fairy Eternity as a reference, so Lu Yang could directly understand the function of Invincible Nascent. With Meng Jingzhou’s situation having no reference, he could only research gradually.

"What about you, what’s your Nascent Soul like?"

Lu Yang perked up when this topic came up: "My Nascent Soul was personally guided by an Ancient Immortal, known as Invincible Nascent. It can automatically battle on my behalf, deploying the most appropriate moves with the most suitable power to defeat the enemy at the most suitable time, even surpassing me as an opponent!"

Meng Jingzhou took a deep breath. Old Lu’s Nascent Soul sounded incredibly powerful, not in the same league as his own.

"Okay, you’ve just made your breakthrough, you need to stabilize your realm. Elder Lianyi and I won’t bother you any longer."

"No need to see us out."

Lu Yang said goodbye and left with Jiang Lianyi towards the Scripture Pavilion.

At the entrance of the Scripture Pavilion was Zhou LuLu, the Senior Sister he hadn’t seen in a long while. She was, as always, engrossed in reading a book, with her head tucked down.

"Senior Sister Zhou, reading again?" Lu Yang greeted her with a smile.

"Junior Brother Lu, long time no see," Zhou LuLu said with a sigh of relief upon recognizing Lu Yang.

"I heard you’ve been in the Demon Territory for the past six months?" Zhou LuLu looked at Lu Yang enviously. She had always wanted to venture out but, because she was shy, rarely left the Sect, let alone going to a completely unfamiliar place like the Demon Territory.

"Senior Sister Zhou, you could actually take a walk around the periphery of the Demon Territory. It would be good for building confidence."

"No, no, I’ll just stay in the Sect. That’s...," Zhou LuLu noticed the unfamiliar yet imposing Female Cultivator next to Lu Yang.

By regulation, outsiders weren’t allowed inside the Scripture Pavilion.

"This is a guest invited by Eldest Senior Sister who said she wanted to have a look around the Scripture Pavilion. This is a pass from Eldest Senior Sister," Lu Yang introduced.

Seeing there was a pass from Eldest Senior Sister, Zhou LuLu didn’t say anything more.

"Then you go inside, just remember not to damage the books."

"Of course."

The two entered the second floor of the Scripture Pavilion, where the Cultivation Techniques for the Golden Core Stage and Nascent Soul Stage were kept. When Lu Yang was writing the Golden Core section of the "Mind Seeing Method," he had lived there for a whole month to complete it.

"Take your time looking around, Elder Lianyi. I’m off to study the Cultivation Techniques," Lu Yang temporarily parted ways with Jiang Lianyi.

After Lu Yang left, Jiang Lianyi took interest in these Cultivation Techniques she had never heard of before and could feel the rapid changes with the times.

"’Great Sun Cultivation Skill,’ ’Crane Cry Skill,’ ’Farming Skill’... Hmm, why is this book hidden away?"

She noticed that at the lower shelf on the eastern side, the Cultivation Techniques were rarely sought after, possibly because they were common in the market and were covered with a layer of dust.

Pushing aside these techniques, she discovered a hidden compartment behind them, which was very hard to detect.

Jiang Lianyi opened the compartment and found a book hidden within.

"Dragon and Phoenix Transformation?"
