Who Let Him Cultivate?!

Seeing Lu Yang’s strong reaction, it was now Yingtian Immortal’s turn to be surprised.

"You don’t know? Fairy Eternity’s personality was different from what it is now."

"I remember the time when Fairy Eternity defeated me and Kirin during the Foundation Establishment Stage with her Golden Core Realm and said with a cold face, ’So-called geniuses are no more than this.’

At that moment, I thought that attitude was incredibly cool, and I often tried to emulate that feeling."

Yingtian Immortal was drawn back to memories from over four hundred thousand years ago, in a bamboo forest, where he and Qilin Immortal lay defeated on the ground. Fairy Eternity stood in her green attire and bamboo hat, her demeanor indifferent and icy, her eyes full of contempt for all living beings.

He believed that was how a true master should look!

"Fairy Eternity challenged those beyond her level with an invincible might, forming the Invincible Elixir. Then, wielding the Invincible Elixir and Invincible Nascent Soul, she roamed the world unchallenged, defeating all challengers and earning a great reputation. Back then, everyone’s legs would go soft at the sight of her."

Lu Yang imagined the scene described by Yingtian Immortal: Fairy Eternity challenging numerous Golden Core Stage cultivators while at the Foundation Establishment Stage, her coolness biting, and in full view of everyone, forming the Invincible Elixir, defeating her enemies, and striding away with pride.

Pretty cool indeed.

"Afterward, she cut herself with one strike, severing the Annihilation Dao Fruit Embryo from her body, heeding the advice of Time Immortal, and rediscovering her childlike innocence."

Yingtian Immortal looked up wistfully, "We four were all so envious to see that. Who would have thought that even after experiencing such a dramatic change in her tribe, she could return to the innocence of a child, revert to her original self, and become Immortal by seeking the most natural state? That’s how she became who she is today."

A dramatic change in her tribe?

Lu Yang recalled the phrase. The Fairy had once mentioned that she was born in a small tribe, which was destroyed by the residual forces of a battle between a man and a beast. When she talked about this topic, the Fairy was clearly melancholic, and Lu Yang, considering her feelings, did not ask further.

From what Yingtian Immortal said, the Fairy’s original personality was similar to her current one. It was only after the destruction of her tribe that she became detached.

That was to be expected, it would be odd if someone remained optimistic and cheerful after such a catastrophe.

Lu Yang understood that the original Fairy Eternity was naively romantic. After the destruction of her tribe, she became aloof and cold. After forming the outline of the Annihilation Dao Fruit, she let go of her past with the guidance of Time Immortal and reverted to her true self, achieving Immortal status.

"But are you sure, Yingtian Immortal senior, that when the Fairy beat you and Qilin Immortal at that time, she was cold-faced?"

Fairy, you were a mighty Golden Core Stage cultivator, yet you had an air of ’do not disturb’. Could you really have executed such a cross-level challenge?

The more Lu Yang thought about it, the stranger the scene seemed.

Fairy Eternity blushed listening to Yingtian Immortal recount her past, staring down and fidgeting with her big toe, too shy to see Lu Yang’s current expression.

When Little Yang asked his question, she lifted her head bravely to look at Lu Yang, pouting and poking his arm.

"What does my expression have to do with it? They were the ones who provoked this Immortal first. With the opponents coming at me, why would I avoid the battle?"

"Besides, back then, Yingtian and Kirin were both capable of defeating Golden Core Stage cultivators while at the Foundation Establishment Stage. So when I fought the two of them at the Golden Core Stage, it was essentially a two-against-one scenario. If anything, I was at a disadvantage!"

Lu Yang: "..."

So you really think defeating them both is a matter of pride, Fairy.

Lu Yang still had one more question, "That’s not right either. Didn’t Grey Bean destroy the Fire Dynasty? Even the past Fairy wouldn’t do such a thing."

Given the harshness of ancient struggles, it was rare for Fairy Eternity to have overcome Yingtian Immortal and Qilin Immortal without silencing them permanently.

Especially the Qilin Immortal, a naturally born and bred Kirin, whose value far surpassed that of any heavenly material or earthly treasure. Even so, Fairy Eternity had not dealt a killing blow.

Lu Yang figured that if it were Ashy Bean, he would have taken out both the Yingtian Immortal and the Qilin Immortal long ago.

Hearing this, the Yingtian Immortal also more or less understood that the "Ashy Bean" Lu Yang spoke of was none other than the Master of the Heavenly Court from the Fire Dynasty.

"Yes, that’s the strange part."

"Although the previous Immortal Eternity was cold and indifferent, her actions were not extreme and she was always restrained. My true body and the other two from Suiyue also believed this, deeming that although the resurrected was in the stage of the Annihilation Dao Fruit Embryo, the problem wasn’t significant."

"After resurrecting as the Master of the Heavenly Court, she couldn’t remember her original name, the reason for which is unknown."

"The resurrected Immortal Eternity was on the verge of proving her Dao and becoming an Immortal, so after her resurrection, once she acquired a physical body, she quickly attracted the Immortal Ascension Tribulation and proved her Dao as an Immortal with the Annihilation Dao Fruit."

"But no one expected that after her ascension, she revealed her true nature, starting a mass slaughter and aiming to destroy the entire Fire Dynasty."

"At first, her strength was only average, but as she killed more and more people, her strength grew increasingly formidable."

"Although the power of the Master of the Heavenly Court was increasing, it wasn’t yet to the extent that it couldn’t be suppressed by a combined effort of my true body, Suiyue, Jiuchong, the Kirin, and the Left Historian Immortal from the Five Immortals."

At this point, the Yingtian Immortal paused, his tone growing even heavier, "But then, at that moment, Suiyue died."

Fairy Eternity and Lu Yang both remembered the damaged Firmament Tree beneath the Five Elements Sect, symbolizing that the Time Immortal had once been through a great battle.

"How did he die!" Fairy Eternity asked urgently.

The difficulty of killing Time Immortal was second only to her own. The Time Immortal wielded the Time Dao Fruit, which allowed him to reverse time and foresee the future. How could he have been killed?

The Yingtian Immortal shook his head, "I don’t know. At that time, it was when the Master of the Heavenly Court was starting the rebellion. This thought of mine was also on the Heavenly Court Master’s hit list. The situation was urgent, and I could only hide."

"I know very little about that battle."

"However, the one capable of killing the Time Immortal can only be the ’sixth Immortal’ who has always remained hidden."

"After the death of Time Immortal, my true body and the other Immortals did not join forces again; each fought their own battles."

"And as you probably all know by now, the Fire Dynasty was overthrown."

"To prevent the Master of the Heavenly Court from finding my true body through me, I had to sever contact."

"To avoid the Master of the Heavenly Court, I used the Thunder Tribulation as a cover, never revealing myself again, hiding from causality. Only when a cultivator was passing the Thunder Tribulation could I, through the cultivator’s Inner Demon, guess what changes had taken place in the outside world, all the way until today."

"Is Time really gone?" Fairy Eternity was still reluctant to believe this, as she herself had a way to resurrect, but the Time Immortal had no means of resurrection.

When the topic turned to this, the Yingtian Immortal seemed somewhat hesitant, "This might not necessarily be the case."

"As far as I know, after that battle, the Reincarnation Dao Fruit Outline that formed in the Underworld also disappeared. If Time possessed the Reincarnation Dao Fruit Outline, even if he fell, he could potentially be reborn through reincarnation and return in a completely new form."

"!!!"

Hearing this, both Lu Yang and Fairy Eternity were startled.

It seemed they did indeed know a cultivator who possessed the Reincarnation Dao Fruit Outline.
