Chapter 275: The Function of the Invincible Pill

Lu Yang was silent for a long time before asking: "Fairy, how is this different from the function you described?"

"This involves the second function of the Invincible Pill: it will clearly tell you not to fight if you can't win."

"Think about it, why do you sometimes win and sometimes lose in battle? What is the reason for failure? Isn't it just because you can't beat the other person?"

"Now the Invincible Pill directly tells you that you can't beat them, doesn't that prevent you from being defeated?" The Decayed Fairy was articulate, logical, and well-argued.

This time, Lu Yang was silent for even longer, mainly because he actually felt that what the Fairy said made a lot of sense.

Lu Yang used the Invincible Pill to look at his Senior Brothers and Sisters one by one, and the answers he got were all the same: he couldn't beat them.

"Your Senior Brothers and Sisters are all at least at the late Jin Dan stage, and each of them can fight above their level. You, a Jin Dan early-stage cultivator who hasn't even stabilized, want to defeat them? It would be about the same if I controlled your body." The Decayed Fairy advised Lu Yang not to be overly ambitious and to just wait for Meng Jingzhou to return from forming his core and beat him up.

"When you fought the Ying Tian Immortal and the Qilin Immortal back then, what did the Invincible Pill tell you their weaknesses were?"

"You're talking about that? The Invincible Pill told me they were both at the Foundation Establishment stage and told me to play freely."

It wasn't until he reached the commercial street that Lu Yang regained a little confidence.

The commercial street wasn't just for retired Body Integration stage cultivators to spend their old age; there were also Jin Dan stage cultivators from outside doing business here.

These Jin Dan stage cultivators had extraordinary combat power, but compared to Lu Yang, they seemed much inferior.

"Meat sandwich boss, Golden Core early-stage cultivation, weak spiritual sense, can perform mental attacks."

"Baixiang Tower waiter, can't beat him, try another one."

"Six-winged duck, ingredient, Jin Dan early-stage cultivation, weakness is fear of fire, can use Samadhi True Fire to fight, or order a roast duck and let the kitchen handle it."

"Tea shop owner, can't beat him, try another one."

"Tailor shop owner, Jin Dan mid-stage cultivation, no shortcomings, can be forcibly defeated."

The essence of the Jin Dan is the unity of Lu Yang's essence, energy, and spirit. In other words, the Invincible Pill is part of Lu Yang's body and can formulate effective countermeasures based on Lu Yang's cognition, equivalent to Lu Yang having an extra brain.

"Barbecue shop Master Liu, can't beat him, try another one."

"Barbecue shop Master Gao, can't beat him, try another one."

"Hmm?" Lu Yang only then realized that he had unknowingly arrived at the headquarters of the Decayed Sect.

The barbecue shop was busy, and the Sect Master and the Decayed Immortal were delivering goods, moving freshly slaughtered beef and mutton out of their storage rings.

"Lu Yang!" Seeing Lu Yang, the Sect Master's eyes were complex, three parts conflicted, three parts remorseful, and four parts fortunate.

Master Liu and Master Gao had similar reactions.

If not for Lu Yang, how could the Decayed Sect have ended up like this?

Who could believe that this kid had only joined the sect for two months and had already destroyed the Decayed Sect!

"Lu Yang? Come, come, come, come in and sit!" Seeing Lu Yang, the Decayed Immortal's expression was completely different from that of the Sect Master and Vice Sect Master, appearing quite enthusiastic.

He had to be enthusiastic. Not to mention that this kid had the Decayed Fairy living in his body, who was the source of the Decayed lineage and naturally a level higher than him.

Just talking about this kid's status, he was a favorite of both the Decayed Fairy and Miss Yun Zhi; neither identity was one he could afford to offend.

Of course he had to curry favor.

"It's a pity it's morning and the meat hasn't been marinated yet, otherwise I would have grilled skewers for you." The Decayed Immortal said regretfully. It could be seen that he really wanted to grill skewers for Lu Yang.

The Decayed Immortal grilling skewers—this treatment, if placed in his previous life, would be at the same level as a strong man taking off his boots.

Lu Yang also felt a bit uncomfortable. The high-level members of the Decayed Sect were all here. If it weren't for the fact that the Sect Master, Master Liu, and Master Gao had all been refined into ghosts by the Senior Sister and couldn't harbor hostility toward Profound Heaven Sect disciples, Lu Yang felt he wouldn't have walked out of the barbecue shop alive.

The Sect Master was of the same generation as the Profound Heaven Sect Elders and was at the peak of Body Integration.

"I have important matters to find the Senior Sister, so I won't go in." Lu Yang declined. As soon as the Decayed Immortal heard that Lu Yang was going to find the Senior Sister, he quickly let go and no longer blocked Lu Yang.

After Lu Yang left, the Decayed Immortal narrowed his eyes: "Lu Yang has formed his core. Can you tell what kind of Jin Dan he formed?"

The Sect Master shook his head: "Judging from the quality, it is a First-Grade Jin Dan, but as for which specific type, forgive my poor judgment, I can't tell."

"It should be a brand-new Jin Dan, which is also in line with the style of the Profound Heaven Sect."

Having stayed in the Profound Heaven Sect for so long, the high-level members of the Decayed Sect had grasped a bit of the Profound Heaven Sect's patterns. For example, Profound Heaven Sect disciples never took the usual path when forming their cores, and the Golden Cores they formed were all sorts of things.

"Should we start that plan against Lu Yang?" The Sect Master opened a barrier and asked softly, as if afraid of being discovered.

The Decayed Immortal nodded: "Since he has already formed his core, then proceed according to the plan and catch Lu Yang off guard. Remember, you must execute the plan when Miss Yun Zhi is not around!"

"If Miss Yun Zhi appears, all plans will be in vain, and none of us will have a good end!"

"This matter must be kept secret. Only if we succeed will we have a future!"

The Decayed Immortal said in a deep voice: "Although I don't know the variety of Lu Yang's Jin Dan, I know he has formed it. We can use this as an excuse to give him gifts and try our best to curry favor with him!"

"Remember, the gift-giving plan must not have any leaks. This relates to whether we can open branches outside the Profound Heaven Sect!"

"We will keep it in mind!"

Lu Yang returned to Heaven Gate Peak, where the Senior Sister was meditating and cultivating as usual.

She sensed Lu Yang's arrival, slowly opened her eyes, and scrutinized Lu Yang carefully.

"Formed your core?"

A rare look of confusion appeared in the Senior Sister's expression; she didn't recognize Lu Yang's Jin Dan variety: "What kind of Jin Dan did you form?"

Lu Yang confessed honestly: "It's the same Jin Dan as the Decayed Fairy's, named the Invincible Pill."

Miss Yun Zhi nodded: "It seems to be a Jin Dan that has disappeared in the long river of history. The name of the Jin Dan is quite in the Fairy's style. As for its power, since it is the same type of Jin Dan as the Fairy's, I imagine it can also rank in the top three among First-Grade Golden Cores."

"What are the effects of this Jin Dan?"

"It can see through the opponent's weaknesses and formulate targeted tactics, thereby achieving victory."

"Oh?" The Senior Sister became interested, and her tone softened, no longer as cold as ice. "If I were your opponent, could your Invincible Pill see my weaknesses?"

Lu Yang broke into a cold sweat after hearing this.

"I, I'll try."

Lu Yang activated the Invincible Pill to peek at the Senior Sister's weaknesses. Unsurprisingly, the Invincible Pill's response was the same as before: "You can't beat her, try another one."

Lu Yang informed the Senior Sister of the result, only to hear the Senior Sister continue to ask: "What if I insist on fighting?"

Since the battle was unavoidable, the Invincible Pill quickly gave the follow-up answer:

"Commit suicide now, and you can still guarantee your record of winning every battle."

Lu Yang: "..." Is it too late for me to reform my core now?

They say there is no regret in forming a core. Lu Yang didn't know what others thought, but he certainly regretted it.

To hell with your Immortal-style Jin Dan!
