Invincible Starting from Max Level Attributes

Chapter 729: Chapter 735: 123! (2 more updates)

Only after hearing Yang Zhen express his interest again did Little Witch let out a light snort: “That’s more like it.”

Then, her face showed even more disdain, mumbling to herself, “Men are all the same, unable to resist the allure of the Third Saintess.”

Yang Zhen looked at Little Witch in a confused state. He had seen plenty of extraordinarily beautiful women, but when had he ever been interested in a woman he had never met?

However, it was impossible for Yang Zhen to explain this to Little Witch, so instead, he shrugged it off, just like the exact number of “Heavenly Brilliances” he had cultivated—he simply didn’t deign to explain.

Even so, Yang Zhen felt a bit strange deep inside. If cultivating twenty Heavenly Brilliances was enough to shock the Third Saintess, then they were too easily shocked. If the Yaochi Holy Land found out that he had accidentally cultivated one hundred Heavenly Brilliances using the Nameless Heart Method, wouldn’t that shock all the ancestors of the Yaochi Holy Land?

One hundred Heavenly Brilliances was too exaggerated. Not to mention the others like Little Witch, even Yang Zhen himself found it somewhat absurd. So he decided to go along with the mistake and agreed to the Little Witch’s claim of twenty Heavenly Brilliances. After all, they had heard that the maximum that could be cultivated through the Nameless Heart Method was limited to ten, and Cheap Cat had only heard of a maximum of thirteen. Who knows, maybe the Third Saintess knew more and had even cultivated a hundred Heavenly Brilliances—was Yang Zhen really the only one?

Touching upon this kind of matter with limited knowledge and experience couldn’t unravel the truth since they could not reach that level and therefore couldn’t know more.

However, Yang Zhen considered that though thirteen Heavenly Brilliances might not be the limit, a hundred Heavenly Brilliances, considering past and present, he might be the only one who ever achieved it.

Damn it, it’s better to keep this kind of thing a secret. Who knows if the cultivation world has a precedent for seizing and dissecting people for research purposes?

For a while, Yang Zhen was significantly harassed. Little Witch, Wu Tao, and even that Little Fatty repeatedly came to his thatched hut.

This was beyond the proverbial “Three Visits to the Thatched Cottage”—these people came countless times. Particularly Little Witch, whose name Yang Zhen now knew was Mo Shuiyan, asked him each time how he accomplished it, and if he had cultivated the twenty-first Heavenly Brilliance.

Every time, Yang Zhen would claim he had reached his limit and could no longer cultivate any more Heavenly Brilliances, and dismissed it like that.

As for Wu Tao, every time she came, she would challenge Yang Zhen to a strength contest. God have mercy, Yang Zhen dared not compete with this violent little loli now. If a punch landed, wouldn’t little loli cry for a long time?

Being asked incessantly, Yang Zhen finally said seriously, “From now until I find a cure for your dark disease, you mustn’t use your strength at all. Otherwise, once the dark disease erupts, even Jesus can’t save you.”

“Who is Jesus?” Wu Tao asked curiously.

Yang Zhen thought for a moment and then said solemnly, “An old man in our village, said to be miraculous in saving lives and bestowing blessings, everyone goes to him in case of need.”

“Where is he? Can I visit him?” Wu Tao asked excitedly.

Yang Zhen glanced at Wu Tao and said, “He died!”

“Oh!” Wu Tao seemed a little sad, “A man like that would live in many people’s hearts, right?”

Yang Zhen was immediately astounded by the little loli. Beneath her brash exterior lay a very sensitive soul.

“Mmm, he is in many people’s hearts, like a god. Now, don’t worry about the dark disease. Once I have a solution, I’ll come to you. But remember, don’t engage in casual fights from now on.”

Yang Zhen seemed very wolf-like.

Little Loli Wu Tao nodded solemnly and said, “I understand.”

As the two of them walked down the street, countless people were smiling and greeting Yang Zhen.

“Hello, Boss Yang!”

Yang Zhen always returned the greeting with a pleasant smile. Such reciprocity was something Yang Zhen did well, even if the other party was just an ordinary person, Yang Zhen held no contempt.

On the cerulean planet, the greatest are always these common folk. There can be no denial of this fact.

Little Witch Mo Shuiyan jumped down from the roof. She seemed to enjoy squatting on the roof and watching life’s myriad dramas. After coming next to Yang Zhen, she curiously asked, “Why are you so nice to these ordinary people?”

Yang Zhen took a deep breath and asked, “Do you want to know why?”

Mo Shuiyan nodded with haste, saying, “Of course I want to know. I’ve noticed this for several days now, every time you appear, everyone seems so happy.”

Yang Zhen grinned, saying, “That’s it, if you want to know the answer, treat them like I do. You’ll find out in a couple of days. Of course, unless you’re too slow…”

“Yang Zhen!!”

Mo Shuiyan glared at him, puffing her cheeks like an angry squirrel. “Look who’s talking, I’ll figure it out within half a day!”

With that, Mo Shuiyan strode angrily toward a shop selling cold noodles.

The noodle shop owner immediately shut up, smiling respectfully at Mo Shuiyan. He asked, “Miss Mo, to what do we owe the pleasure?”

Mo Shuiyan slapped the table and ordered, “Boss, give me a serving of cold noodles, the kind that Yang Zhen loves to eat.”

“Alrighty!” As the shop owner bustled inside, Mo Shuiyan shot a glance at Yang Zhen in the street, murmuring, “What a weird man.”

Wu Tao watched the tension between the two with amusement. She was used to it by now. She looked up at Yang Zhen and asked, “Yang Zhen, do you spend every day like this?”

Yang Zhen blinked, “What do you mean?”

Wu Tao hesitated for a moment, then said, “At the sect, we must cultivate day and night without any slack. Because once any of us slack off, we’ll definitely be surpassed and may never catch up again. But you… it seems like you don’t like to cultivate at all.”

Yang Zhen waved his hand dismissively and said, “I’m different from you guys, so don’t imitate me. However…”

Wu Tao tilted her head with a puzzled look, “‘However’ what?”

Yang Zhen looked up at the azure sky of the planet, a sight rarely seen, and spoke, “Have your elders ever told you about the principle of balancing work and rest?”

Wu Tao chuckled, “Are you trying to find excuses for your laziness?”

Yang Zhen shook his head and said, “This isn’t about making excuses for laziness. Once you have rested well, and you look at this world again, you’ll find that it’s different from before. You can give it a try. Don’t cultivate or use any True Essence for five days. Even stop all the automatic operation of the Cultivation Method in your body. Look back at the world then, and you might find it different.”

Wu Tao’s eyes widened, her face a picture of shock. After a long while, she asked, “Can it really be done that way?”

Yang Zhen laughed heartily, ruffled Wu Tao’s hair, and said, “With your talent, even if you don’t cultivate for five days, you won’t fall behind your peers too much. You can certainly catch up.”

Wu Tao pouted, fixed her hair, and then said cheerfully, “Then I’ll give it a try!”

Oh dear, I’ve misled another one!

Yang Zhen sighed, looked up at the sky, and murmured, “The girls in this world are really easy to fool. One, two… three…”

“Yang Zhen, what are you counting?” Wu Tao asked with curiosity.

“Sneeze!” Yang Zhen winked at Wu Tao.

“Plop!” Mo Shuiyan spat out all the cold noodles in her mouth and slapped the table, “Boss, what kind of lousy noodles are these? Why are they so spicy?”

The shopkeeper chuckled, “Miss Mo, these are Boss Yang’s favorite, made from his own recipe. Do you want me to make you a non-spicy one?”

“Forget it, I’ll eat this one. Right, I have a question. You don’t have to answer it, but… forget it, you really should answer it.”

“What question?”

“Why is Yang Zhen so kind to all of you?”

“Well…I don’t know. Boss Yang is a man of high principles. He never discriminates against us, and we all respect him greatly. As for why he treats us mortals so well, we have no idea.”
