I Might Be A Fake Cultivator

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

As a Dao Integration Stage mythological beast, it wasn’t difficult for Dongfang Zhuangshi to disguise himself as a human below thirty years of age. No one would be able to detect his true identity and age.

After training diligently in the art of pill refinement for so long, it was finally time for him to show off his skills, so he was quite excited. Most importantly, he was fighting for that promise she had made to him!

At the pill refinement competition.

The middle-aged man’s skills were quite exceptional, even among all the pill refinement prodigies.

There were over ten thousand competitors present, and yet he was able to secure the twenty-sixth position, thereby earning him an invitation to become a disciple of the Pill Tower.

No one would have ever thought that the almighty Emperor Kirin, who was renowned across the entire continent, would enter a pill refinement competition of this level. And never would anyone have thought that he would be smiling to himself like a fully grown infant just because he had become a disciple of the Pill Tower.

“Haha, I’m a disciple of the Pill Tower now!

“I can go to Ling Gu City…”

Dongfang Zhuangshi’s heart rate was beating a little quicker than usual as he grasped tightly onto a yellow talisman, which indicated his status as a disciple of the Pill Tower.

At Ling Gu City.

It was still raining.

For this small city, which was located on the southeastern border of the Kingdom of the Nine States, rain in the summer was quite commonplace.

Ling Gu City was very quiet with only the sound of the rain breaking the deathly silence.

Even before he had even entered the city, Dongfang Zhuangshi was already panicking.

His extremely powerful divine sense told him that the entire city was already devoid of life.

No, this can’t be…

You must have already left, you’re no longer in this city…

Dongfang Zhuangshi muttered to himself in a low voice as his body trembled in fear.

He was soon greeted by the sight of a city in ruins. The city wall had been shattered, and the entire city itself had been reduced to rubble.

Corpses littered the ground, some of which were human, others were creatures from the Black Hand Clan, which had inky-black bodies, no facial features, four arms, and two legs.

The rain had washed away all the blood, but there was still a faint metallic smell in the air.

He wandered aimlessly through the city and encountered many familiar faces. All of them lay silently on the ground, some of which wore ferocious expressions, while others wore expressions of despair and horror…

Dongfang Zhuangshi didn’t dare to use his divine sense. He was like an idiot who was trying to blind himself.

The sky was extremely gloomy, and white shadows slowly fluttered through the city, as if they were wandering spirits.

After a long time, his footsteps finally faltered.

He knelt to the ground and slowly cradled her cold body in his arms.

He held on extremely tightly, as if he was trying to repress something, but it was also as if he was trying to recover something.

“You told me you would wait for me. Why didn’t you run…” The man’s voice choked up with sobs.

No one answered him.

The woman’s eyes were tightly shut, and her body was completely devoid of vitality. A series of ghastly wounds were visible through her cream-colored dress.

Her body had curled up into a ball. It was as if her death had been very painful and that she had been quite fearful of the cold.

Slap! Slap! Slap!

A series of loud slaps erupted amid the sound of falling rain.

“I’m sorry, it’s all my fault that I couldn’t protect you! Hit me! Slap me!”

Dongfang Zhuangshi roared as he gripped onto the woman’s cold wrist and slapped himself repeatedly with her hand.

Tears streaked down his face, which was twisted with grief and pain.

An object clattered to the ground from the woman’s other hand.

From it, Dongfang Zhuangshi detected a familiar energy fluctuation.

He picked up the object with trembling hands, only to discover that it was an intricately crafted red jade pendant that had clearly been nurtured for quite a while, as evidenced by the strong energy fluctuations emanating from within.

There were characters inscribed onto the jade pendant, which read Mengjie on one side and Zhuangshi on the other.

“Hehe, hahaha…

“I’m so stupid! I really am an idiot! Why didn’t I confess earlier?

“I really don’t like drinking tea. It’s so bitter and bland, how could I enjoy something like that? But I like you, I love you! I love being together with you. When I’m with you, anything I drink tastes delicious.”

The man smiled like an idiot as his clear eyes slowly glazed over with bloodlust. A violent aura erupted from his body, and the very heavens trembled as if it were about to collapse under the weight of his ferocious killing intent.

“The Black Hand Tribe, right? Be reasonable… They killed the woman I love…

“So I’ll hunt them into extinction!”

Boom!

A pillar of red light soared into the sky as heaven and earth began to tremor and split open.

The dark clouds in the sky dissipated, only to be replaced by a boundless sea of surging blood.

A red shooting star crashed into the Black Hand Tribe continent, which was situated outside of the Kingdom of the Nine States in the southeastern direction.

The Demonic Blood Kirin descended with an earth-shattering killing intent, and what ensued was a ghastly act of mass genocide. Blood stained the entire continent, and the bloodcurdling cries of billions of Black Hand Tribe inhabitants erupted into the clouds above. Countless living beings were slaughtered, and even the heavens were lamenting their loss as a rain of blood fell for over a hundred days.

Many Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures who witnessed the scenes that took place in the Black Hand Tribe continent were in complete and utter shock.

They had only one explanation for this, and that was that the Demonic Blood Kirin had gone insane!

The Demonic Blood Kirin had indeed gone insane. Dongfang Mengjie was his medicine, and she transformed him into a cultured human who liked to be reasonable. But now, the medicine was gone, and he could only revert back to become the ferocious, bloodthirsty monster he once was.

Thus, a large force in the Tai Chu Continent, which consisted of a population that numbered in billions, was completely erased off the face of the continent in the most brutal manner. Even the Dao Integration Stage Black Hand Emperor had been torn into pieces by the Demonic Blood Kirin.

No one knew why this had happened.

These were two forces that had never even encountered one another, so how had they become sworn enemies? This bizarre and bone-chilling event instantly created a massive stir across the entire Tai Chu Continent.

Dongfang Zhuangshi’s entire body was drenched in blood as he returned to that small city. As he half-knelt before the woman, he said softly, “Mengjie, I have avenged you.”

He pulled out a crimson bead, within which boundless life energy surged.

He then pulled out another dreamy, rainbow bead. This was the divine tool, the Divine Bead of Time, within which the river of time surged, seemingly containing infinite possibilities.

“I have sacrificed the entire Black Hand Tribe and am now sacrificing the Divine Bead of Time. Is this enough to turn back time?” Dongfang Zhuangshi muttered to himself as he crushed the Divine Bead of Time without any hesitation.

Boom!

The crimson bead flew into the sky and arrived at above the center of the city before glowing with a radiant light.

A paramount power enshrouded the entire city.

After sacrificing the Divine Bead of Time, time really did begin to reverse. Black and white lights erupted across the entire city as a vast power descended.

All the rainwater on the ground materialized into droplets of rain before returning to the sky.

As time reversed, Dongfang Zhuangshi witnessed many things.

He saw the Black Hand Tribe setting up a formation around the city. He saw the Black Hand Tribe slaughtering all the soldiers and cultivators within the city. He saw Dongfang Mengjie trying to protect the citizens of the city with all her power, only to be surrounded and killed by several Black Hand Tribe powerful beings.

Time continued to reverse.

Dongfang Zhuangshi saw the small, peaceful city under the warm light of the sun.

He saw the woman in the Miracle Healing Clinic, nurturing a jade pendant in her hands as she looked up into the sky with anticipation in her eyes.

The image finally settled on the woman sorting through medicine with a gentle smile on her face and an expression that suggested that she was thinking about something.

The power within the Divine Bead of Time had been exhausted.

“Mengjie…” Dongfang Zhuangshi extended a hand toward the woman’s beautiful features as his heart thumped with excitement and anxiety…

His hand passed through the woman’s face, but he could not touch it.

A bitter expression appeared on his face. “Time has been reversed and life has also returned, but it appears that this cannot fuse into the flow of time.

“But that’s alright, I’ll definitely find a way to save you from this world!”

Dongfang Zhuangshi stowed this frozen city into his crimson bead.

He flew into the air toward the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool.

On the way back, a pair of massive eyes suddenly appeared in the sky.

“Demonic Blood Kirin, why did you massacre the entire Black Hand Tribe?”

Each and every one of the spoken words contained the wrath of the Heavenly Dao, and Dongfang Zhuangshi trembled involuntarily in the face of its insurmountable might.

“They killed the woman I love, so why can’t I massacre their entire race?” Even as his body and soul trembled, Dongfang Zhuangshi looked directly into the pair of massive eyes with an unyielding expression.

“A conflict between two tribes should never result in genocide. Why are you so unreasonable?”

“Heh, I’ve always been an unreasonable wild beast.”

“What you have done has severely impacted the balance of the entire continent. For that, you will suffer the cruelest torture.” The voice in the sky was extremely cold and unforgiving. It was as if it were delivering God’s decree.

Boundless heavenly might rendered Dongfang Zhuangshi completely immobilized.

“Then come fight me! If I was scared of you, then I wouldn’t have…”

Boom!

A violent boom erupted.

A power that was like the strike of a meteorite instantly tore Dongfang Zhuangshi’s body apart.

Everything descended into darkness.
