Chapter 1089: The Local Natives Think You Are Very Pitiful

After bidding farewell to those Great Xia official cultivators, Lu Yang piloted the small boat into the Cultivation Realm.

"Mr. Lu, you don't seem surprised that those people are moving planets?"

"Surprised? I didn't expect there to be a show during the New Year; it's quite creative."

"No, that's not what I meant. I mean, are there many cultivators who can move planets?"

"Whether there are many or not, how should I put this? When you came over, you saw people rowing boats and flying in the universe, right?"

"I saw them."

"Everyone you saw can move planets at will."

Dean Gao couldn't help but gasp.

The moment he entered the Cultivation Realm, Dean Gao couldn't help but shiver, as if he had eaten a mint; his mind was clearer than usual.

He thought of the mysterious energy Lu Yang always mentioned: "Is this spiritual energy?"

Lu Yang smiled: "Do you feel the difference? If you possessed your original body, it would be even more comfortable."

The spaceship sped along and landed at the gate of the Wendao Sect. He took out the Green Edge Sword and released the entire aid team.

After one shock after another, they no longer had the arrogance they had before setting out; all that remained was excitement.

"Is this the Cultivation Realm?"

"Finally arrived at the destination."

"Can everyone here fly?"

"This is the sect I belong to, the Wendao Sect," Lu Yang introduced to everyone, his tone filled with a hint of pride.

"Greetings, Senior Brother Lu!"

The two junior brothers responsible for guarding the mountain gate saw that the visitor was Lu Yang, and their tone was somewhat excited.

"These are guests I invited; let them in."

"Yes."

The two junior brothers opened a door in the sect-protecting array and gestured for everyone to enter.

Passing through the mountain gate, they walked past a bamboo forest. The bamboo forest was quiet and secluded, most suitable for a master to live in seclusion. A river meandered, surrounding the bamboo forest, nourishing it with spiritual water.

Water mist steamed on the river surface, gradually condensing into a human figure, blocking their path. Everyone was startled—what kind of monster was this?

"Senior River Spirit, these are guests," Lu Yang said, cupping his hands.

"Hmm, I heard what you said at the mountain gate," the River Spirit's gaze fell on the Ether extension Lu Yang was carrying.

"What kind of thing are you carrying? I feel like it has some connection to me," the River Spirit's tone was somewhat uncertain.

"What are you?!" The Ether extension was even more surprised than the River Spirit. Water mist condensing into a human form—what was the principle behind this?

It also had a strange feeling, but this feeling was hard to describe; it was something it had never experienced before.

"This is something I brought from the outside world. It is an innate spirit clone. Perhaps it is an innate spirit like you, Senior, and a resonance has been generated between you."

"An innate spirit clone? So that's how it is."

Innate spirits are extremely rare; even the River Spirit had never seen another of its kind.

Of course, this was also because it could not leave the river.

In fact, most innate spirits cannot leave their original bodies; the Ether computer is a special case.

"Bring it over when you have time; let the two of us have a chat," the River Spirit was very interested in the Ether computer.

"Alright. By the way, Senior River Spirit, have Senior Sister and the others returned?"

"As far as I know, you are the only one who has returned from this exploration of the outside world."

"I'm the first one back?" Lu Yang was surprised. He had returned early and hadn't seen anyone.

He had wanted to bring Dean Gao and the others over so that Senior Sister would know he had racked his brains to develop the Cultivation Realm, and Sister Mengmeng would surely admire him too.

Now it seemed he had thought too much.

"Senior Brother Dai is here, right?"

"He is."

"That's fine then."

Anyway, he was back at the sect; he would let Senior Brother Dai see that he didn't cause trouble every time he went out.

Seeing that they were far away from the River Spirit, Dean Gao asked in a low voice: "Mr. Lu, who was that just now?"

"That is Senior River Spirit, our sect's guardian spirit. Don't look at him as fierce and menacing; he's actually quite a nice person. When I first met him, there was a small misunderstanding, and he even chased me with an axe. Look, he doesn't hold it against me anymore."

"Sect guardian spirit? Is he very strong?"

"Remember those cultivators who moved planets? Senior River Spirit could deal with them with one hand."

Dean Gao gasped. This River Spirit was actually this powerful?

Wouldn't that mean the entire Interstellar Alliance was no match for the River Spirit?

(Note: This line is a garbled placeholder in the source text.)

And this was only a part of the Cultivation Realm.

Wait, Mr. Lu said there were very few people in the Cultivation Realm stronger than him. Then just how strong is Mr. Lu?

Dean Gao suddenly realized that what Lu Yang had shown in the Interstellar Alliance was merely the tip of the iceberg of his true strength!

Entering the core area of the Wendao Sect, the aid team noticed Wendao Sect disciples fighting on the arena. Two disciples exchanged blows briefly, and it was like the sky collapsing; space itself was shaking.

This was not an adjective; space was truly shaking. What kind of power was this collision?!

The Wendao Sect disciples all noticed the aid team brought by Senior Brother Lu and looked curiously at these foreigners in strange clothes. Out of courtesy, they didn't stare, switching to peeking with their spiritual sense instead.

"Clothes I've never seen before. Are they people Senior Brother Lu brought from the outside world?"

"Their body structure is so strange; they are covered in iron lumps from head to toe, only their brains are like ours."

"Is it that demonic cultivators refine puppets by stuffing human brains inside, so that the magic treasure effectively possesses intelligence?"

"Wow, how pitiful. They must have encountered a demonic cultivator. No wonder Senior Brother Lu brought them back; he's looking for someone to save them."

Thinking of this, the Wendao Sect disciples cast pitying glances at them, making the aid team feel very strange.

They were very familiar with the look in the Wendao Sect disciples' eyes; usually, they were the ones looking at the local natives with such eyes.

They couldn't all be brought to Dai Bufan, so Lu Yang let Dean Gao follow him into the Mission Hall, while the others waited outside for a while.

With a group of cultivators out exploring, the workload of processing intelligence increased day by day, and the once leisurely Dai Bufan returned to his initial state of busyness.

"Is Senior Brother Dai here?"

Senior Brother Dai was stunned when he heard this voice, subconsciously feeling his heart jump into his throat.

How did this kid Lu Yang come back? Could he have caused some new trouble for me?

"Enter."

Lu Yang revealed a well-behaved smile, carrying the Ether extension and bringing Dean Gao into the room.

"Senior Brother Dai, I'm back."

Dai Bufan looked at Dean Gao vigilantly. Judging by his aura, the other party was just a mortal, but based on experience, the other party definitely had a great background: "Which immortal is he?"

Lu Yang: "..."

Senior Brother Dai, what exactly am I like in your eyes?

"Senior Brother Dai, while traveling, I encountered a force called the Interstellar Alliance. This Dean Gao Huanyu is a guest I invited."

Having said this, Lu Yang paused and added: "He is not an immortal."

"So it's a guest. Please, sit down." Senior Brother Dai breathed a sigh of relief, having worried for nothing for so long.

"It seems you have gained a lot this time?"

Lu Yang recounted everything he had seen and heard in the Interstellar Alliance, as well as inviting the aid team back to help build the Cultivation Realm.

"Good, good, good! Junior Brother Lu, you've done well!"

Dai Bufan's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he said "good" three times in a row, slapping his thigh in joy.

Miraculous technology, an Ether computer loaded with the knowledge of the entire Interstellar Alliance, and talents from all walks of life—just listening to it, Dai Bufan could imagine how prosperous the Cultivation Realm would become after obtaining these things!
