Cultivation: Starting with Sterilizing My Own Father

Patrolling the perimeter of the forbidden area only requires checking whether the surrounding barrier is intact and whether there are any suspicious people loitering nearby.

"Who's there? This is the outer perimeter of the sect's forbidden area. Unauthorized personnel are not allowed to approach!"

Hearing a sound, Long Aotian looked up and around, but saw no one. He then wondered if he was hallucinating and turned to go inside to practice against the monsters.

"If you go any further, you'll reach the edge of the restricted area. Second warning!"

Long Aotian silently gripped the sword at his waist, feeling like he was trapped in a maze.

The next second, Long Aotian felt a piercing pain in his foot: "Ouch!" Looking down, he realized that the one who had just reminded him was a five or six-year-old child who looked somewhat familiar. Long Aotian's face immediately showed 4 parts disdain, 3 parts mockery, and 3 parts arrogance.

"Where did this kid come from? Go away, go play somewhere else. You're not even fully grown yet, and you already want to be a supporting character." Long Aotian crossed his arms and looked down at the little kid. "Do you know who I am? Don't you even know? I, Long Aotian, am the eldest disciple of Floating Peak!"

Wei Zhiying rolled her eyes at her without any politeness: "Go away! You just entered the inner sect last year, what kind of senior disciple are you?"

Upon hearing this, Long Aotian's lips curled into a smug smile. He tossed his bangs with what he considered a dashing air: "Don't be obsessed with me. I'm just a legend. I, Long Aotian, am truly known to all, my deeds have been passed down for thousands of years!"

Wei Zhiying felt that she couldn't keep talking to people with mental problems, as it was easy to infect herself. Then, she nodded behind Long Aotian. Upon seeing this, Tu Ming immediately looked at Long Aotian with hostility. In a second, Tu Ling's body slowly turned yellowish-brown, then cracks appeared, and it exploded with a bang. The scattered stones were blown in all directions. Because Tu Ling was only tall and short, it was a different story.

With a roar from Long Aotian, Wei Zhiying silently stood up straight and put her legs together. It had been a long time since she had empathized with her father since she had sterilized him. At the same time, she thought to herself: It should be... that he hit her butt, right?

"Ahem, anyway, disciples are not allowed to go to the forbidden area. Go back now, or I'll drag you to the Enforcement Hall." Zhi Ying directly took the Enforcement Disciple's token, practically shoving it onto Long Aotian's face as he lay on the ground clutching his genitals: "See? I'm from the Enforcement Team! Get out of here!"

"You brat!" Long Aotian, covered in sweat, struggled to his feet and drew his sword the next second: "You asked for this!"

Wei Zhiying was taken aback, then an uncontrollable smile appeared on her lips, and her black almond-shaped eyes suddenly became bright. Now that she had broken through to the Golden Core stage, she had heard that the other party was also a prodigy back then. Although she still did not know where the other party ranked in the competition, since the other party was so capable, if she did not challenge him now, when would she?

Tu Ling immediately understood Wei Zhiying's idea and thrust his poisonous needles into the ground. The next second, countless scorpion stingers emerged from all around, trapping Wei Zhiying and Long Aotian in this small, square area.

Wei Zhiying drew her iron sword from her waist: "This is the rock spike tail of my earth spirit. Be careful not to get pricked, or you won't be able to move for a full half hour. How about we use this place as our arena?"

"I'd be happy to oblige!" Before he could finish speaking, a ball of blazing flame appeared in Long Aotian's palm: "Taste my lava fireball!"

Wei Zhiying's smile vanished. She raised her hand, not to defend, but tossing her sword aside. Then, she manipulated earth elements in her hand, conjuring a drill-shaped gauntlet: "This move is called Mountain-Splitting Rock-Piercing Cone!"

Seeing that his opponent did not take a defensive stance but instead chose to withstand the attack, Long Aotian, who already disregarded Wei Zhiying, became even less concerned.

The fireball in Long Aotian's hand was twice the size, flying straight towards Wei Zhiying like a cannonball. Wei Zhiying directly met it head-on with the drill bit made of clay in her hand. At the moment of contact, like practicing Tai Chi, she used the tip to change the trajectory of the fireball, making a circle around it and returning the attack to her opponent. Not only that, but also the power of Wei Zhiying's mountain-splitting and rock-piercing cone itself, not only sent Long Aotian flying, but also made blood spill from the corner of Long Aotian's mouth.

"How could that be?! You're cheating!"

"Why not?" Wei Zhiying raised her hand and shook it, the hard stone in her hand crumbling like dust. Finally, she turned around and picked up the iron sword she had thrown aside. The smile on her lips returned to her face: "You should be wary when the other party isn't smiling. After all, the fact that the other party isn't smiling doesn't mean they're going to lose. It could also mean that the person who is about to win won't smile at all."

Tu Ling removed the poisonous thorns from the ground, returned to Wei Zhiying's side, and turned to wiggle his buttocks at Long Aotian.

Wei Zhiying tapped the little guy's head: "It's your own fault for not testing the opponent's cultivation level before the battle. Although I didn't test it either, I've seen you before, and I guessed that you might have a fire elemental root. Sure enough, I have an earth elemental root. Haven't you learned about the Five Elements? Fire generates earth. When the strengths are equal, the stronger your fire burns, the harder my earth will be."

Wei Zhiying was only now preparing to check the other party's cultivation level. In order to see more details, she directly retrieved the panel in her mind.

Name displayed: [Long Aotian]

Cultivation level: [Foundation Building Level 9]

Physique: [Saintly Sword Body]

Talent: Fate and Fortune

Root bone: Immortal bone

Wei Zhiying's eyes lit up. Good heavens! If he could get ahead of this guy, wouldn't there be opportunities everywhere?

Long Aotian got up and asked, "You've seen me before? Could you be one of those enemies who once plotted to assassinate me?"

Wei Zhiying's lips twitched: "On the Lantern Festival, during the sacrificial rites, you flirted with my sister."

Long Aotian frowned deeply. Wei Zhiying thought the other party had forgotten, after all, she had splashed a basin of water on him back then, and almost a year had passed. But the next second...

"So it was you! Fine, with old and new grudges combined, I'll remember you! Fortune changes every thirty years. Don't underestimate a young man's potential; one day I'll make you beg me for mercy!" With that, Long Aotian turned and left.

Watching the other person's retreating figure, Wei Zhiying couldn't help but sigh, "It's a bit melodramatic, but they're lucky! As for Floating Peak..."

Before she could even think about what would happen next, a stone fell beside her, bringing Wei Zhiying back to her senses. "Fighting among disciples is forbidden within the palace gates. Although the other party entered the forbidden area first, if they are highly regarded by Venerable Fukong, things will become very troublesome. Quick! Tu Ling, let's check carefully and make sure to restore the surrounding area to look as if nothing happened."

"Um!"

The human and the scorpion used their spiritual power to carefully examine the barrier in the vicinity, worried that the vibrations might cause some problems underground. If a demonic beast were to escape, they would be doomed to die. However, due to the strong magnetic field near the ground, or in other words, the strong gravity, they could not fly on their swords.

The earth spirit's two large pincers gripped the wall tightly. You grabbed its tail and began inspecting the cliffs, repairing the cracks caused by the recent tremors. But as you repaired, you realized the area was quite hollow. Wei Zhiying assumed it contained magical beasts, but then discovered that this angle completely outside the forbidden zone. Was there a cage around the outer perimeter of this forbidden zone?

My task is to inspect the outer perimeter of the restricted area, which means I should also be able to inspect this place, right?

Thinking of this, Wei Zhiying walked in quietly with a grin: "Hehe, it's not against the rules, it's not against the rules."

The deeper Wei Zhiying went, the more familiar she felt. When she reached the deepest part, the first thing she saw was a "pillar" covered in white hair. Upon closer inspection, she found that the "pillar" was moving slightly, and that's when she realized it was a person.

"My God, there's a white-haired demon locked up here."

Upon hearing the familiar voice, the man turned around, and Wei Zhiying instinctively knelt down with a thud: "Master?!"
