Chapter 393: Lu Yang’s Patent Fee
Yun Zhi, known as the most proficient in Daoist techniques of her era, wasn’t just talented in Daoism but had also spent countless hours in the Scripture Pavilion studying and comprehending ten thousand different kinds of Daoist methods.
Logically, even if she hadn’t mastered a technique, she should at least have heard of it.
Yun Zhi looked at the spinning arm in silence, trying to recall everything she’d seen and heard but couldn’t figure out what technique her junior brother was cultivating.
With a soft sigh, she stepped forward, grabbed Lu Yang’s wrist, and pulled him out from his own palm.
“Huff—huff—ugh—”
After emerging, Lu Yang swayed unsteadily, seeing double and feeling the world spin around him. His mind was foggy, and he could barely stand. He leaned against a knobby dragon tree trunk, retching.
At the Golden Core Stage, cultivators could adjust their organs to avoid dizziness caused by spinning, but that required training. Unlike Lu Yang, who had spun himself into a frenzy without any time to adapt.
“A self-contained space within the palm... Are you learning a divine ability similar to the Buddhist Kingdom in the Palm technique?” Yun Zhi observed some similarities.
Lu Yang closed his eyes, steadied himself, and pressed his forehead against the tree. It made him feel a lot better.
“Yes, yes. It’s a technique called Universe in the Palm that the Fairy taught me. I’ve only grasped the basics.”
Given Lu Yang’s learning ability, Yun Zhi quickly deduced what had just transpired.
“Mid-stage Golden Core, not bad. It seems junior brother has been diligently cultivating while I was away.”
Whoosh—
Yun Zhi gently blew on Lu Yang’s face, like a spring breeze brushing past, instantly clearing his mind and returning him to normal.
“Eldest Senior Sister, you’re back?”
“Yes.”
Lu Yang glared at the Everlasting Fairy in his mental space, who was simply watching for entertainment. He compared her with Yun Zhi, who had helped him escape the dizzying spin as soon as she returned. “Look at you,” he thought. “How long did you laugh while I spun around?!”
Everlasting Fairy guiltily turned her head away.
She had initially wanted to stop Lu Yang, but once she saw how amusingly he spun, she couldn’t help but watch the show.
Why did this True Lord Tomb Bone sound so familiar?
Everlasting Fairy hesitated for a moment before asking, “What does this True Lord Tomb Bone look like?”
The Sovereign of Calamities had already described all of his subordinates in detail. Yun Zhi snapped her fingers, and a puff of smoke appeared, slowly forming into the image of a face that both Lu Yang and Everlasting Fairy found very familiar.
A shriveled old man, looking as if he hadn’t eaten in days, holding a tattered banner.
“It really is him!” Lu Yang and Everlasting Fairy exclaimed in unison.
“You know him?” Yun Zhi was confused. True Lord Tomb Bone was a Great Yu cultivator who had remained hidden, and they hadn’t even confirmed which province he was in. How had these two encountered him?
Everlasting Fairy, acting as if she were a great mastermind, confidently made some hand gestures, as if she were calculating something. In reality, it looked more like she was having a fit.
“This immortal foresaw a demonic cultivator stirring trouble in Liangzhou, so I had my subordinate, the Netherworld Heavenly King, join forces with the Nine Nether Sect to eliminate the demon. We located him, captured him, and gifted him to the Nine Nether Sect as a gesture of goodwill between our two sects!”
Yun Zhi translated the boastful claim in her mind: In short, the Great Elder and Vice Sect Leader Petrified had, for reasons unknown, already captured True Lord Tomb Bone, and Lu Yang and Everlasting Fairy had simply watched.
The details didn’t matter, as long as the capture was successful.
Yun Zhi clasped her hands in a salute, “Venerable Bean’s planning is truly extraordinary.”
Everlasting Fairy, feeling proud, gave a smug glance at Lu Yang.
“There is one more small matter regarding Lu Yang that I need to ask about,” Everlasting Fairy continued.
“Go ahead, senior.”
“Lu Yang applied for a patent on a flying car, and Fifth Elder mentioned that the patent fees had already been handed over to you. Why haven’t you given the patent fees to Lu Yang yet?” Everlasting Fairy, as the Head of the Heavenly Court, was not shy about confronting the Heavenly Court Sect Leader.
Yun Zhi seemed to remember something and responded with a calm tone.
“Oh, that matter.”
“Why didn’t you give the fees to Lu Yang?”
“I forgot.”
