Chapter 448: How Many Sect Master One-Day Experience Coupons Can This Immortal's Exchange Points Exchange For?

Immortal Fairy's approval indicated that this spell was authentic and a rare treasure.

Lu Yang successfully borrowed "Everlasting Life Art" and returned to Tianmen Peak to study. He went to his usual cultivation spot, flipped through the book, and read it word by word, very diligently.

"Everlasting, continuous; Life, unending..."

The opening of "Everlasting Life Art" clarified the meaning of "everlasting life" and warned practitioners that if this spell fell into the hands of ill-intentioned cultivators, it could easily cause disaster and self-immolation.

Lu Yang pondered, deciding that since he always acted upright, he couldn't be considered an ill-intentioned cultivator, so he proceeded to learn it with confidence.

Lu Yang took a couple of deep breaths, exhaled stagnant air, and, feeling relaxed, quickly entered a meditative state. With an undivided mind, he diligently studied the spell.

Perhaps Lu Yang truly had a talent for learning spells, or perhaps this spell was simply easy to master. As he read and practiced, he quickly grasped the basics.

"So easy to cultivate?" Lu Yang exclaimed in surprise, thinking he must truly be destined for everlasting life.

"But how do I prove I've learned this?" Lu Yang wondered, frustrated. He couldn't possibly wait until his theoretical lifespan was up to see if he was dying.

The cost of verification would be far too immense.

"Never mind, I'll try cultivating it first. Maybe there will be other sensations."

Acting on his thought, Lu Yang silently activated "Everlasting Life Art." Soon, he felt an itching sensation on his scalp.

Unseen by Lu Yang, his hair began to grow rapidly.

Lu Yang instinctively touched his head and exclaimed, "Why is my hair so long?!"

Why would "Everlasting Life Art" affect hair?

"In Buddhism, hair is often referred to as the 'three thousand threads of vexation.' Could the spell's creator be telling me that everlasting life is lonely and ultimately a source of trouble, that solitude accompanies immortals throughout their existence, and that everlasting life is a curse, so one should not pursue it?"

Lu Yang's thoughts were clear. He put himself in the creator's shoes, guessing the true meaning of the spell, and felt a profound realization.

Immortal Fairy, standing nearby, couldn't help but interject, "Why don't you check the back of the last page of the book?"

"What do you mean? There's writing on the back?"

Following Immortal Fairy's suggestion, Lu Yang turned to the back of the last page.

There, on the back of the last page, it read: "This spell promotes rapid hair growth, specifically treating hair loss and baldness. Do not use on Buddhist practitioners, as it may cause trouble."

Lu Yang was speechless.

If it's "rapid hair growth," you should write "rapid hair growth"! What's with just writing "everlasting life"?!

Is that how you abbreviate sentences?!

Who wrote this spell?!

Lu Yang angrily closed the book, seeing the author's name on the cover: Tang Shengyi.

Tang Shengyi, the master of the Nine Sons of Dao Seeking Sect and Lu Yang's grand-master, was now retired.

Lu Yang calmed down, his anger significantly diminished. "Grand-master, is this how you name things... Wait, Fairy, you knew about this spell?"

"Of course. When you were reading in the Scripture Repository, I was also reading, using my divine consciousness. I've read this book."

"Then why did you say this spell was suitable for me and that I'd need it later?"

"Doesn't 'Everlasting Life Art' pair well with your Arhat Fist?"

Lu Yang was speechless.

So, Fairy, your mind only works well at times like this, huh?

Fine, Emperor Xia, may you find your own blessings. I've done my best.

Just as Lu Yang was about to argue with Immortal Fairy, he saw Senior Sister return to Tianmen Peak from the elders.

Senior Sister looked at Lu Yang with a slight hint of confusion. His hair hadn't been this long when she left earlier, had it?

Seeing the "Everlasting Life Art" in Lu Yang's hand, Senior Sister understood.

"Senior Sister, have you found a way to extend lifespan?"

Senior Sister shook her head. "Only the clue about the spiritual roots of heaven and earth provided by the Fairy seems feasible. The elders' methods are a bit..."

Senior Sister didn't elaborate, but based on his stereotypical impression of the elders, Lu Yang could roughly imagine their proposed solutions.

They might even suggest something like "refining Emperor Xia into a living corpse and pretending he's still alive."

"Yun, do you remember that I just captured three Tribulation Stage souls?" Immortal Fairy, seeing Senior Sister, seemed to recall something and emerged from within Lu Yang.

"Of course, Senior Fairy, the souls you captured are very useful."

"Then shouldn't I be given contribution points for them?"

"Indeed."

"How many 'one-day sect leader experience vouchers' can I get with my contribution points?" Immortal Fairy made no attempt to hide her intentions.

Lu Yang stared at Immortal Fairy in shock. Was it too late to switch to a different cheat ability now?

Senior Sister calculated briefly. "Roughly enough to be sect leader for two months."

"That much?" Immortal Fairy beamed, unable to contain her delight. Last time, she only got to be sect leader for three days, which wasn't nearly enough. This time, two months would surely be satisfying!

"Then I want to be sect leader for two months!" Immortal Fairy said, fearing Senior Sister might go back on her word.

Lu Yang quickly interjected, "Senior Sister, you mustn't! The Fairy always uses my body when she appears to outsiders. Last time, when she was acting sect leader for three days, we could attribute it to me finding my master who had been missing for ten years—a great accomplishment. But this time, I can't possibly claim I found my master, who was missing for ten years, twenty times, can I?"

Senior Sister replied casually, "It's fine. We'll just say Master saw how successful you were as acting sect leader last time and wants to cultivate you, letting you be acting sect leader for another two months."

As the Sect Leader, Taoist Buyu could appoint anyone he wished as acting sect leader.

As his disciple, Yun Zhi could dictate what her Master would say.

"Any other issues? If not, I'm going to be the sect leader!" Immortal Fairy was overjoyed, as happy as if it were the New Year.

"Coincidentally, in two months, the sect will be holding its 120,000th anniversary celebration. Senior Fairy, you can diligently plan during these two months to let the world witness the splendor of an ancient immortal." A faint smile appeared on Senior Sister's lips, quickly vanishing.

"Sect celebration?" Lu Yang and Immortal Fairy exchanged confused glances.

After Senior Sister's brief explanation, they finally understood. Although the Dao Seeking Sect was said to have a history of 120,000 years, strictly speaking, it was still two months shy of that milestone.

The Dao Seeking Sect was founded on the sixth day of the eleventh month.

The day Patriarch Innate Daoist got lost.

During the sect celebration, various major powers would visit the Dao Seeking Sect, making it a lively affair.

As soon as Immortal Fairy heard about the celebration, she clearly showed signs of regret.

"I think it's better to leave sect celebrations to you, the Dao Seeking Sect members. I won't participate."

Senior Sister looked at Immortal Fairy with a slightly surprised expression. "Senior Fairy, you are an honored guest elder of this sect. How can you not be considered one of us? If you're not an honored guest elder of this sect, you won't get any contribution points."

"Hmm."

Immortal Fairy pouted, caught in a dilemma, weighing her options.

"Or perhaps Senior Fairy finds the celebration too much trouble and too difficult to manage, choosing to retreat when facing difficulties?"

"How could that be? It's just organizing a celebration! I'll be the acting sect leader for these two months!" Immortal Fairy declared with soaring ambition, her eyes blazing with fighting spirit.

"Then I wish Senior Fairy good luck with the hard work."

"No hard work at all!"
