Who Let Him Cultivate?!

Chapter 552 - 551: Shield_1

Upon detection of someone peering into their time, the atmosphere in the Immortal Realm tensed up instantly.

"Could it be Time Immortal wanting to see when we would finally use Time Dao Fruit in this chess game?" Qilin Immortal wore a peculiar expression, although he too felt that taking several months to make a move in Go was a bit excessive.

The three immortals fell silent, feeling that this possibility was indeed real.

"Fairy, can they see us?" Lu Yang was really taken aback. Being thirty thousand years apart from the three immortals, he was viewing a reflection of the past. The fact that they could detect his presence under such circumstances was a bit too horrifying, wasn’t it?

Fairy Eternity glanced at Lu Yang, "Don’t flatter yourself. They’ve sensed my presence, not yours."

If Lu Yang’s cultivation level was enough to alert the three immortals, they should have noticed him right from the start of viewing the reflection of the past.

Not to mention, Mister Tiankui, whose cultivation level is far superior to Lu Yang’s, didn’t elicit any reaction from the three immortals either.

"If you’re talking about ’seeing’, only Time Immortal can see ’us’ in the future from the past. Yingtian Immortal and the others can only vaguely sense it, they can’t even tell who is watching them."

Even so, Lu Yang still found the immortals terrifying.

Not all immortals are like Fairy Eternity.

Fairy Eternity suspected that Lu Yang had disrespectful thoughts about her, but she had no proof.

Immortal Jiuchong pondered for a bit and came up with another possibility.

"It’s not necessarily Time Immortal. It could be an immortal from a future generation looking at us across the vast river of time. After all, given your pace of playing chess, we three will have to stay here for a hundred years, which is enough to generate a reflection of the past."

"You mean an immortal saw our historical reflection?"

"Indeed, this is a possibility. Right now, there are only four of us immortals. There are plenty of semi-immortals, all of them are incompetent and none of them can become immortals. It’s quite normal for a few immortals to appear in the lengthy epochs of the future."

The three of them laughed heartily. If a few more immortals emerged in the future, they could possibly share the pain brought by Fairy Eternity.

"Hey, Jiuchong, Yingtian, Qilin, can you hear me?" Fairy Eternity shouted, releasing her aura, trying to send her aura over.

At the beginning, when she started viewing the historical reflection, Yingtian Immortal didn’t notice her. It was when she unconsciously leaked her aura while saying she wanted to punish the mastermind that Yingtian Immortal was able to sense her presence.

"This aura…"

The three immortals, Yingtian, immediately became alert. This aura was on and off, like a dying candle, almost non-existent, yet they could sense the presence of the other party based on this faint aura.

"This aura is from ???!"

The three of them reacted simultaneously.

Fairy Eternity had been beating them since they were young. They have been constantly blasted ever since they became immortals. Even now, they were hiding here because of Fairy Eternity.

This aura was all too familiar to them!

It was definitely Yellow Bean!

Then they broke into a cold sweat, hoping they didn’t say anything bad about Yellow Bean just now, did they?

Phew, they didn’t.

"Can you three hear me?"

Fairy Eternity tried a few times, seeing that Immortal Jiuchong and the others didn’t respond, she shook her head and regretfully gave up.

It seems that they can’t hear her.

Lu Yang furrowed his brows. After Immortal Jiuchong and the others noticed the future’s Fairy Eternity, they should have said the name of Fairy Eternity, but he only saw Immortal Jiuchong open his mouth, there was no sound, and the lip movements didn’t match what Fairy Eternity was saying.

"Such a strong shield."

Replacing Fairy Eternity with Time Immortal under this situation is a glaring flaw. Even a fool could see the issue. It’s simpler to just brutally block it out.

"Don’t you find it strange that ??? has been releasing her aura, is there something she wants to tell us?"

Yingtian Immortal frowned, playing with the chess piece in his hand. He thought Fairy Eternity accidentally saw their historical reflection and wanted to tease them, hence she released her aura.

If that were the case, releasing the aura once would be enough. Why release it so many times?

Had she become addicted to it, or was she trying to convey some information, but couldn’t because of the gap in time?

If it were the latter, why let Fairy Eternity convey the message? Wouldn’t it be better to have Time Immortal do it?

Wait, could it be that something unexpected happened in the future and Time Immortal couldn’t convey the message?

"Jiuchong, go get Time Immortal, let him see what’s happening. I suspect ??? is looking for us!"

"Also, don’t let ??? know about this." Qilin Immortal added. They didn’t know what would happen if the Fairy Eternity from the past and the future met. Whether it would open a time tunnel, or annihilate the spot, causing a massive explosion, no one knew.

"Alright."

Without Yingtian Immortal and Qilin Immortal saying anything more, Immortal Jiuchong could also think of such things.

Turning into a stream of light, Immortal Jiuchong tore through space, covering thousands of lightyears in a single step. He crossed numerous galaxies to reach the North Star, ruled by Fairy Eternity.

On the North Star, immortal auras twirled around. Even a breath taken by a mortal could prolong life and cure diseases.

He saw many cultivators kneeling by the river, bowing three times and kowtowing nine times to the statue of Fairy Eternity by the river before respectfully scooping out a bowl of river water.

This was a special product of the North Star, the Mother-child River and Twin River.

Upon reaching Fairy Eternity’s fairy mansion, he saw Fairy Eternity in the kitchen interacting with Qilin Immortal’s couple of wives about cooking skills, while Time Immortal was restless, probably looking for an excuse to escape.

"Huh, Jiuchong is back. Have you finished chopping the Phoenix Tree wood?" Fairy Eternity poked her head out from the kitchen with flour on her face, and looked over cheerfully.

Immortal Jiuchong was frightened and froze in place.

He tried his best to suppress his aura, but he never expected that Fairy Eternity would discover him anyway.

"I’ve finished. It was quite tough though," he quickly reacted, being someone who had also experienced many storms, he placed the Phoenix Tree wood he was carrying on his shoulder down on the ground.

"Big brother Jiuchong, you worked hard." The phoenix tribe’s geniuses cheerfully moved the Phoenix Tree wood into the kitchen, following which the sounds of dragons and phoenixes resonated tirelessly from the kitchen, as if some kind of dish was being prepared.

Immortal Jiuchong said loudly, "Yingtian and Qilin, those two rotten chess players were arguing about who made what move during their game. Time Immortal, can you go over there and rule on this?"

Time Immortal gratefully looked at Immortal Jiuchong, good brother, it was worthwhile to let him be the first to become an immortal.

"Alright, I’ll go now."

Immediately afterwards, Time Immortal noticed that something was amiss. He saw Immortal Jiuchong with a solemn expression, not looking like he was helping him escape, but rather that he needed his help with something else.

What could be so important that they needed his help, and had to go around Fairy Eternity to ask him?

Time Immortal had a faint idea that something was happening.

The two immortals who first achieved immortality traversed an infinite number of galaxies and returned the same way they came. They moved faster than when Immortal Jiuchong was travelling alone.

On the way, Time Immortal listened to Immortal Jiuchong’s account, his expression heavy, he didn’t say a word.
