Chapter 189: Prototype of the Immortal Dao Fruit

"You... you are truly an immortal, the Undying Immortal?" Lu Yang's body trembled, his hands restless, and a smile he couldn't suppress crept onto his lips. He was incredibly excited.

"Child, calm yourself. I am right here," the Undying Immortal said with a gentle expression. "You are the first-place winner in this competition. While the top performer in the Qi Cultivation group had commendable aspects, they couldn't compare to you. You are truly the undisputed champion."

"As a reward, I shall grant you one wish.""A wish? Are there any conditions?"

"Speak freely. I am omnipotent.""I wish for eternal world peace."

"Choose another?" the Undying Immortal tentatively suggested, admitting to himself that his previous statement had been somewhat exaggerated.

To possess Lu Yang, he would need to obliterate his soul. However, Lu Yang's soul was deeply rooted in his physical body. Even if it were to be extracted, roots would remain, leading to an incomplete possession that would hinder future cultivation. The best method was to fulfill Lu Yang's deepest desire. This would cause the soul's roots to naturally detach, allowing for a perfect possession. He assumed Lu Yang, being only at the Foundation Establishment stage and a rogue cultivator, wouldn't have grand wishes. At most, he might ask for an immortal treasure, which he could easily grant since he would retrieve it after the possession anyway.

"I wish for everyone to become an immortal.""..."

This was even worse than the last one.

"I wish for a massive development in productivity, where people can acquire resources without labor and are free to choose their preferred activities.""...Choose another."

Is this kid here to become a demonic cult leader, or is he planning to overthrow the Great Xia Dynasty and establish a new one?

Lu Yang looked at the Undying Immortal with some disappointment. Could this immortal actually deliver? His words were grander than Huang Doudou's, yet he couldn't fulfill a single one of three wishes.

The Undying Immortal felt provoked by Lu Yang's gaze, but he knew he couldn't rush things.

"Child, all your wishes are related to the world. Do you not have a wish for yourself?" the Undying Immortal patiently guided, knowing that if Lu Yang wished to become an immortal, he would have a valid reason to possess him. Becoming an immortal using your body would still count as fulfilling the wish!

"Of course. I wish to cultivate to the realm of creating heavens and earth, reshaping the cosmos.""..."

Could your wishes be a little less ambitious? If I had such power, would I be here painstakingly trying to trick you? Seeing that the Undying Immortal seemed to lack real ability, Lu Yang had no choice but to settle for something less.

"I have a senior sister whose cultivation is unparalleled. I wish to be able to defeat her."

"Hahaha, that's child's play! I can suppress her with a flick of my wrist!" The Undying Immortal burst into laughter, thinking, "Finally, a simple wish!" How powerful could a senior sister at the Foundation Establishment stage be? For him, the grand Undying Immortal, suppressing such a young girl would be effortless.

"Once I possess you, I will naturally suppress that young girl for you!"

"Possession?!" Lu Yang's pupils constricted. He never imagined the promised immortal's blessing would turn into an immortal's possession. He immediately turned and ran, desperate to escape the demonic lair.

"Give up! If you could escape from me, where would my dignity stand?" Lu Yang felt the terrifying, mountain-like pressure from the Undying Immortal and fell into despair. If he hadn't won, would the outcome have been different? If he hadn't won, would the outcome have been different? If he hadn't made a wish, would the outcome have been different? If he hadn't joined the Undying Sect, would the outcome have been different?

Panic, regret, fear... numerous emotions surged within him, but it was too late.

Seeing Lu Yang's expression, the Undying Immortal couldn't help but sneer. He transformed back into a wisp of smoke and flew into Lu Yang's spiritual space.

Then, he was immediately met with a slap. *Smack!*

A crisp slapping sound rang out, and the Undying Immortal was sent flying by the blow.

"So you're the brat impersonating me?" A fiesty woman immediately started kicking and punching the Undying Immortal. To an uninformed outsider, it would have looked like a delinquent girl beating up an old man.

"Let me tell you, in ancient times, even Ying Tian and the other four wouldn't dare do this. Who do you think you are?!" "Impersonating me? Did you pay your respects at the docks? Offer tribute? Did I even nod in approval?"

"Who are you?!" The Undying Immortal was bewildered. He hadn't even understood what was happening before he was slapped. Why was there someone else in the spiritual space? Was this kid so popular that everyone was queuing up to possess him?

"You don't even recognize your great-grandmother, and you dare roam around outside?" The Undying Fairy had long been annoyed by him. He was out there swindling and cheating under the "Undying" name, while she, as the true entity, was either scorned by Lu Yang or bullied by Yun Zhi. Her life was utterly miserable. Finally, the Undying Immortal had entered, and she could properly deal with him!

She had never seen the Undying Immortal's appearance before; he was not someone she recognized.

"Fairy Fist Art!" The Undying Fairy concocted a name, and her pink fists rained down, pummeling the Undying Immortal. The fist art appeared haphazard, yet it was exquisitely profound, with each strike being unpredictable.

The Undying Immortal felt every strike landing on his vital points and weaknesses. Even though he was in a soul state, he felt as if he were about to spit blood and collapse to his knees. He felt his soul on the verge of scattering into nothingness. Where did this demon come from?

"This is too much!" The Undying Immortal roared in fury. He commanded the Undying Dao Fruit, and ever since his resurrection, he had been revered as an ancestor by the Undying Sect, getting whatever he desired. Everything had gone smoothly; when had he ever suffered such humiliation?

"Eternal Undying!"

The Undying Immortal bellowed, and a golden light emerged from his palm, ethereal and dazzling to the point of blinding. This golden light was neither physical matter nor a soul; it was something beyond them. It possessed a peculiar power, making him feel indestructible, impervious to all methods. Any attack aimed at the Undying Immortal would turn into nothingness.

"An embryonic Undying Dao Fruit?" The Undying Fairy was surprised. She finally understood the source of the faint, familiar aura she had sensed from the sect leader.

This imposter actually had some capabilities.

"You, woman, indeed have some discernment. This is the Undying Dao Fruit! Before it, I am undying, unaging, deathless, and indestructible, the sole existence through all ages. All destinies vanish into nothingness, and all attacks turn to naught. What can your attacks do to me?!" Having summoned the Dao Fruit, the Undying Immortal felt confident.

Huang Doudou revealed a disdainful smile: "What's there to be proud of in such a clumsy imitation of me?""Fairy Fist Art!"

Huang Doudou swung her pink fist again, shattering the Undying Immortal's proud barrier with a single punch. The pink fist's force undiminished, it landed directly on his face.

"This embryonic Dao Fruit is quite interesting." The Undying Fairy casually snatched the embryonic Dao Fruit. The golden substance appeared in her hand, and she observed it with keen interest.

Inside the golden substance, countless runes and rules appeared and dissolved, intermittently revealing themselves as if narrating the changes of countless ages, elucidating the true meaning of immortality.

Lu Yang looked over curiously, but the Undying Fairy pushed him aside. "Go away, go away. Your cultivation level isn't high enough to look at such things."

"W-what did you do?!" The Undying Immortal was panic-stricken. The embryonic Undying Dao Fruit had originally been intimately connected to him, even more closely than a soul fusion. Logically, no force should have been able to separate it.

But now, he could no longer feel the connection to the embryonic Undying Dao Fruit! The embryonic Undying Dao Fruit was completely out of his control!

Who exactly was this person?! And how did they do it?!

"Boasting about a Dao Fruit in front of me is like teaching a fish to swim," the Undying Fairy said with a proud smile. At that moment, another ethereal, immortal voice reached the Undying Immortal's ears, echoing: "I heard you want to suppress me?"

Only then did the Undying Immortal notice that, apart from Lu Yang and the mysterious woman who had snatched his Dao Fruit, there was a third person in the spiritual space!

Just how many people are in this spiritual space of yours?! Does possession require queuing up these days?
