I Might Be A Fake Cultivator

An Lin opened his bleary eyes to find that there was something sitting on his stomach.

He slapped the thing away, only to find that it was warm and furry, as if he had slapped away a warm ball of fur.

“How dare you attack Papa Zhantian you ignorant, weak trash…” a clear and crisp voice mumbled, as if it was sleep talking.

An Lin: “…”

An Lin was a little speechless as he looked down upon Xue Zhantian before kicking it awake.

“Oh… Giant An Lin, where are we?” Tina also woke up before looking around with confusion on her face.

They were situated on a massive black mountain.

She raised her head to find that the black mountain had no end in sight, as if its peak were piercing directly into outer space. There were specks of light sprinkled across the surface of the mountain, as if they were ethereal stars shining in the night.

“So pretty… Is this a star mountain?”

Tina looked around the mountain in amazement as she muttered to herself.

An Lin’s body trembled upon hearing this. Star mountain…

Could this be the Huge Starry Mountain that Emperor Ziwei was talking about!?

His eyes widened as he looked around the massive mountain, and his heart surged when he discovered that its outward appearance was exactly the same as the description Emperor Ziwei had provided him with.

An untraceable, otherworldly mountain. Wasn’t that exactly what he was standing on right now?

And wasn’t this the mountain that had saved his life when he was in complete despair because the world was crumbling around him?

An Lin felt like he needed to think about this situation as he looked around his surroundings.

Aside from Xue Zhantian and Tina, Liu Chuchu, Ling Ying, Hong Dou, and Xue Mengmeng had all disappeared.

Could it be… that they were teleported to another place because he wasn’t in physical contact with any of them?

To him, this was the most viable explanation. All four of them were directly behind him, so there was no reason why they would be rejected by the mountain. As for the other possibility that they had been destroyed as the continent crumbled, that was not something he wanted to think about…

An Lin turned around and was greeted by the sight of a series of mountain ranges. All these mountains were pitch black in color and extremely tall in their own right, but they were still a long way from being able to compete with the Huge Starry Mountain.

The sky above them was filled with countless dazzling stars.

Wait… something wasn’t quite right…

He looked up at the sky above to find that the stars were extremely clear and realistic, as if there was no barrier between himself and the sky, and the light of the stars was able to shine directly into this world.

“Why do I get the feeling that the sky here is different…” An Lin murmured to himself.

An Lin shook his head and abandoned this train of thought. He then nudged Xue Zhantian awake before pulling out three Golden Immortal Fruits from his storage ring, two of which he handed to Xue Zhantian and Tina.

After enduring the calamity they had just escaped from, all three of them were severely wounded. Their musculoskeletal structure, meridians, organs, and even their seas of vital energy had been heavily injured. If they were to recover naturally, it would perhaps take them up to a month to do so.

Hence, the eighth-grade immortal fruits that were imbued with powerful life-force energy were extremely important to them at this moment. The fruits would be able to drastically shorten the timeframe required to facilitate a full recovery.

An Lin already considered Xue Zhantian and Tina as his friends, so he brought out all three of his Golden Immortal Fruits before sharing them without any hesitation.

Xue Zhantian and Tina were extremely touched by his gesture as both of them munched on their respective immortal fruits with elation and gratitude in their hearts.

An Lin also began to consume his own immortal fruit; rich life-force energy spread throughout his entire body, healing all his injuries at an extremely quick rate in conjunction with the Evergreen Technique.

Xue Zhantian immediately lay down on the ground after consuming the immortal fruit. There was excitement on its face as its body pulsed with different shades of blue light, as if it was engaging in expiration.

“This fruit truly is a miraculous medicine; not only is it extremely delicious, my whole body feels at ease after consuming it. Master is such a good person, you are the epitome of benevolence, kindness, compassion…” Xue Zhantian rattled off a relentless stream of praise.

An Lin: “…”

Tina was tiny, so she ate quite slowly and was the last one to finish her fruit.

Thankfully her digestive system was quite strong, otherwise, it would take her a full day to eat such a large fruit!

Tina also lay down with satisfaction on her face after consuming the Golden Immortal Fruit, and she patted her tiny stomach as a slight smile appeared on her face.

“Huh? Wait! I can feel a new power appearing within my body!” Tina’s eyes widened in amazement.

An Lin and Xue Zhantian both turned to look Tina to find that her body was suddenly glowing with an extremely dazzling golden light. This was an extremely holy and pure energy.

“Little Na, how do you feel? Are you feeling ill?” An Lin asked in a slightly panicked voice.

Tina shook her head as she blinked with a slightly vacant expression. “I’m fine. On the contrary, my body feels fantastic and light, as if some shackle had just been broken. I feel like I’m about to fly away…”

About to fly away? An Lin grew even more concerned upon hearing this.

Right at this moment, a resounding boom erupted in the starry night sky above Tina’s head. After that, a massive white vortex covering several kilometers in radius appeared overhead as the vital energy in a radius of several dozen kilometers surged in a spectacular display!

Both An Lin and Xue Zhantian’s eyes widened in shock as a thought occurred to them.

“Ding Ling…”

A crisp ringing reverberated through the air as a tall, gallant white projection slowly flew out from the vortex before appearing in the air above.

The projection was a male fairy with a head of golden hair, pointy ears, a pair of emerald-like eyes, and indescribably handsome features. His entire body and face appeared as if it were the manifestation of everything that was good in this world.

“Holy Fairy Leader…” Tina stared up at the projection in the sky as she murmured to herself while being in a daze.

The projection that had been referred to as the Holy Fairy Leader looked down upon Tina before pointing a finger at her and uttering an unknown language.

An Lin couldn’t understand what the projection was saying, but his voice was like the most heavenly music in the world and just listening to it filled him with bliss and relaxation.

After some time had passed, the projection of the Holy Fair Leader began to dissipate, and the white vortex also disappeared with his departure.

An Lin came to his sense from his entranced state, and a hint of disappointment appeared on his face after seeing that the Holy Fairy Leader had disappeared.

“Little Na, are you feeling bett…”

An Lin turned to look at Tina, but he faltered before finishing his sentence.

Xue Zhantian also came to its senses before turning its eyes toward Tina, upon which it received quite a fright. “Unbelievable, this is incredible!”

The two of them stared at each other before turning to look at Tina again as both of them unconsciously swallowed…

A white ball now sat in the place where Tina had been standing. The ball seemed to have been constructed from some sort of silver strands, which glowed with a faint light.

“Did Tina regress to become an egg again?!” Xue Zhantian exclaimed in shock.

An Lin’s lips twitched. “Fairies aren’t oviparous ¹ creatures!”

He carefully picked up the white ball before placing it into his pocket and enveloping it in a spell technique to provide further protection. “I don’t know what just happened to Tina, but it should be something good.”

The Holy Fairy Leader that had just appeared was simply far too perfect…

Surely such a beautiful fairy couldn’t be capable of doing anything bad!

An Lin was a serial judge of books based on their covers, so this was the immediate conclusion he came to.

He was more inclined toward believing that Tina had received some sort of inheritance, or she had made some sort of breakthrough on her cultivation base.

After all, Tina had been at the pinnacle of holy rank, which was the equivalent of the Soul Formation Pinnacle Stage on Tai Chu Continent.

Fairies were extremely sensitive to life-force energy, and she had once mentioned that she could feel her cultivation base stirring after consuming a spirit pill. The Golden Immortal Fruit contained significantly more life-force energy than that spirit pill, so it wasn’t too far-fetched to think that consumption of the fruit might have helped Tina make a breakthrough.

However, shouldn’t a breakthrough like this require tribulation transcendence? Why did she turn into a silver ball instead?

An Lin was starting to doubt himself.

He heaved a long sigh before shaking his head to dispel this train of thought and looking ahead at the massive mountain before him. “Whatever. Let’s explore this mountain first.”
