Chapter 1055: An Immortal Can Adapt to Any Circumstances

Yun Mengmeng recalled the actions of the second-in-command over the years, and it could be said that wherever he went, things went wrong.

When the second-in-command returned to the Wendao Sect, the Wendao Sect remained safe and sound.

"That is not right. I heard that something happened to our Wendao Sect as well. The second National Teacher of Great Yu and the Myriad Law Daoist Master both sneaked into our sect. Is our Wendao Sect's destiny not strong enough either?" Yun Mengmeng had heard Yun Zhi mention these two incidents.

"Just two ignorant half-immortals, and you call that an incident?" The Immortal Fairy was dismissive of the two half-immortals. The former could not beat the fourth-in-command, and the latter could not beat the Hanhai Daoist Master; they could not make even the slightest wave.

"It really seems to be the case." Yun Mengmeng was fiercely loyal, believing whatever the chief-in-command said.

"Second-in-command, what are you thinking about?" Yun Mengmeng noticed that Lu Yang's mind was wandering and he had not chimed in from beginning to end.

Lu Yang came back to his senses: "I was thinking, it is such a grand matter that I, the dignified Tofu Heavenly Venerable, foiled the Great Qian conspiracy and saved the West Heaven Temple. Is it not a bit too inefficient to rely solely on rumors and storytelling to spread the word?"

"Furthermore, the cultivation world is ever-changing and major events happen frequently. The common people have no official channel to understand these matters, which is not conducive to enlightening the public."

Yun Mengmeng blinked, waiting for the second-in-command to reveal the answer. She really wanted to say that before the second-in-command appeared, the cultivation world did not seem to have so many changes, but saying such words now would likely spoil the mood.

"Have you ever heard of a 'newspaper'?"

"Yes, it is a kind of paper with recent events in the cultivation world written on it." Lu Yang made the concept of a newspaper as simple as possible for Yun Mengmeng to understand.

"But many people cannot read, right?"

"It does not matter if they cannot read. We can add a recitation formation to the newspaper."

"But the cultivation world is so vast. It would take a lot of time to sell newspapers everywhere, right?"

"We can ask Grandmaster Hanhai for help and have his elderly self set up a few spatial channels."

The more Lu Yang spoke, the more feasible he found this method. He immediately set off, dragging Yun Mengmeng to find Hanhai Daoist Master.

Unfortunately, Hanhai Daoist Master was not in the sect. According to the guess of the founding master, Xiantian Daoist, he had gone to the East Sea to enjoy the company of his old flame, Ao Ya.

In fact, without Xiantian Daoist's guess, Lu Yang also felt that Grandmaster Hanhai had gone to the East Sea to find his old lover.

With Yun Mengmeng leading Lu Yang, the two had a smooth journey, riding across the surface of the East Sea. No sightless members of the sea race came out to stop them, claiming this was their territory and flying was forbidden.

It was Yun Mengmeng's first time at the East Sea Dragon Palace. She saluted the shrimp soldiers and crab generals with drool. The shrimp soldiers and crab generals did not know what Yun Mengmeng was thinking, but they felt a deep fear from the bottom of their hearts.

Ao Ling was not in the East Sea. Knowing that Lu Yang was an honored guest of Ao Ling, the Old Dragon King warmly received Lu Yang.

With the help of the Old Dragon King, Lu Yang waited for two whole days before finally seeing Grandmaster Hanhai emerge from Ao Ya's bedroom, supporting himself against the wall with light steps.

Seeing it was Lu Yang, Hanhai Daoist Master forced himself to straighten his back and maintain a stern face.

Lu Yang pretended not to know what the grandmaster had been up to and explained his purpose. Realizing this was a good deed that benefited the people, Hanhai Daoist Master readily agreed.

"Establishing spatial channels is easy, and paper is not an issue either." Great Xia did not lack paper. The imperial court had a specialized paper-making institution that did not even require cultivators; mortals could accomplish it.

"The problem lies in how you plan to mass-produce this newspaper item. Will you use printing techniques? And how will the sound be replicated?"

"I know how to do this." Yun Mengmeng raised her hand excitedly and pulled out a row of writing brushes from her storage ring, all spaced equally apart.

"When I was a child, Grandma punished me by making me copy books, and this is what I used. It can be ten times faster!" This was a precious treasure that accompanied her through a happy childhood.

Lu Yang had a solution long ago: "Guan Shanhai, the Great Yu National Teacher, possesses the Rubbing Dao Fruit. With his ability, replicating mere newspapers should not be a problem."

"It is a bit dangerous to let him regain control of the Rubbing Dao Fruit, but since he could comprehend it, it proves he must be proficient in such spells. Just give him a tiny bit of spiritual energy and let him use spells to replicate it."

"Guan Shanhai has nothing to do all day in the Prisoner Peak. Our Wendao Sect was worried he would be lonely by himself, so we specially captured a group of prisoners to keep him company. He ought to contribute to our sect too."

Hanhai Daoist Master looked at Lu Yang with a strange expression. Was our sect really that good to Guan Shanhai? Why did I hear that he still had things he had not confessed, and Yun Zhi would whip him from time to time?

"Then Grandmaster, please attend to your business first. Oh, by the way, if you lack yang energy, I suggest you train Old Meng more. His blood contains a very abundant amount of yang energy. The only problem is that his cultivation is too low. Once his cultivation goes up, your problem will be solved." As a close friend, Lu Yang did not forget to speak highly of Meng Jingzhou in front of the grandmaster.

"That is right." Hanhai Daoist Master's eyes lit up. He pressed the Danding Peak to refine pills every day, so how could he forget the Meng family boy?

Hanhai Daoist Master directly opened a spatial channel and brought Lu Yang and Yun Mengmeng back to the Wendao Sect.

After returning to the Wendao Sect, he immediately went to find Meng Jingzhou to see how the Meng family boy's cultivation was progressing.

Lu Yang and Yun Mengmeng, on the other hand, came to the Prisoner Peak.

As soon as they entered the Prisoner Peak, they heard a group of prisoners heatedly discussing something.

"Hey, hey, hey, can this part of the cultivation method be written like this? At most, this only allows one to cultivate to the early stage of the Tribulation Transmutation Realm."

"The cultivation method should be written according to this old man's way, guaranteeing cultivation to the mid stage of the Tribulation Transmutation Realm."

"Does your cultivation method even match Mo Xiaochou's constitution? Why should we listen to you?"

"That is simple. When he goes out, he just needs to take medicine according to the method I described, which guarantees his constitution will rise by a level."

Mo Xiaochou never expected in his life that he would be surrounded by a group of Tribulation Transmutation cultivators discussing how to make him cultivate better. No, it was not just Tribulation Transmutation cultivators; there were even half-immortals among them.

At the end of the Prisoner Peak, there was also a legendary immortal. The immortal rarely spoke, but once he did, it carried the weight of a final verdict.

Suddenly, the prisoners of the Prisoner Peak shut their mouths simultaneously. Although Lu Yang had not yet entered the Prisoner Peak, they all developed a premonition at the same time that Lu Yang was coming.

Sure enough, Lu Yang really came to the Prisoner Peak again.

"Why are you here again, kid?" The child-like Grandmaster-Uncle was startled. Had he not just come by a few days ago? Had the speed of catching people now increased to a daily basis?

"I came to find Guan Shanhai."

"Oh, just walk straight to the end and you will find him." The child-like Grandmaster-Uncle trusted Lu Yang deeply and did not even ask what Lu Yang wanted to do.

Lu Yang and Yun Mengmeng walked to the end and saw Guan Shanhai, who had fallen to the status of a prisoner.

"Lu boy, what business do you have with me?"

Lu Yang did not hide anything and explained his idea to Guan Shanhai.

Guan Shanhai let out a cold snort, his eyes turning sharp. He stood up and stared intently into Lu Yang's eyes.

"Do you know that when my Rubbing Dao Fruit is cultivated to the extreme, it can be used to create worlds? Influenced by the Dao Fruit, the people created do not even know how they were brought into existence!"

"Now you want me to use the Rubbing Dao Fruit for such trivial chores? Where does that leave the dignity of an immortal!"

Lu Yang said seriously: "Then how about I have Eldest Senior Sister speak with you instead?"

"But then again, helping others brings joy and benefits the people; it will not tarnish the dignity of an immortal."
