Who Let Him Cultivate Immortality

Chapter 181: People Who Don’t Belong Together, Will Not Live Together

Regarding the Immemorial Immortal, Lu Yang only knew of his revered title, with everything else about him shrouded in mystery. However, Lu Yang could still infer some information.

Just as the Everlasting Fairy uses “Everlasting” as a prefix, indicating immortality as her trait, it could be deduced that the Immemorial Immortal’s trait is related to the distant past or time.

The technique taught to the Everlasting Fairy by the Immemorial Immortal, and then passed on to himself, is akin to receiving favors from two immortals, enough to prove the power of this technique!

Moreover, time-related techniques are among the rarest of all techniques, even rarer than those related to space, causality, and other concepts.

“Why did the Immemorial Immortal teach you this technique?” Lu Yang wondered if perhaps the fairy had poisoned the Immemorial Immortal into a delirious state and tricked it out of him?

The more Lu Yang thought about it, the more plausible it seemed.

The Everlasting Fairy feigned anger: “What are you saying? With my personal charm, isn’t it normal for the Immemorial Immortal to beg me to learn the technique?”

So, he was poisoned into stupidity.

“What really happened?”

“One time, I complained to the Immemorial Immortal that I had gone to the trouble of preparing a lot of nutritious food and invited you all over, but you didn’t come, wasting the food. I asked if he could teach me a technique that would let me know in advance whether you would come or not, so I could prepare accordingly.”

“The Immemorial Immortal seemed reluctant, I guessed he thought that if I learned this technique, he’d be out of a job, which is understandable.”

“Seeing him in a dilemma, I didn’t press him to teach me.”

“And then?”

“You know I’m a gentle, considerate, generous, and appropriate fairy,” said the Everlasting Fairy, using adjectives that hardly seemed relevant to her.

“At the time, I considerately said, ‘You’re managing so many planets, it’s understandable if you’re too busy to come over for meals.’”

“So, I reluctantly offered door-to-door service, preparing meals and delivering them to your tables. That way, the food I made wouldn’t go to waste, and you’d save time.”

“The Immemorial Immortal probably felt my time was too valuable to be spent on these trivial matters, and immediately offered to teach me ‘foreseeing the future,’ so I could predict who would come and who wouldn’t.”

“I said the technique sounded difficult, and I’d rather not learn it, preferring to continue delivering food. The Immemorial Immortal enthusiastically said the technique was very simple and easy to learn.”

“Seeing the Immemorial Immortal’s enthusiasm, I reluctantly learned it.”

“Did you learn it?”

The Everlasting Fairy nodded with a proud expression: “Who do you think I am? I am the Everlasting Fairy! There’s no reason for me not to learn it! I can predict events three days in advance, without any errors!”

Lu Yang was sincerely impressed; being able to know events three days in advance was truly worthy of one of the ancient five immortals.

“Let me demonstrate for you!”

As she spoke, the Everlasting Fairy’s soul floated out of her body, and a wind from nowhere blew her pale green skirt, as if she had stepped out of a painting.

The Everlasting Fairy raised her right hand, chanting ancient and difficult-to-understand words. Accompanied by the chant, countless golden runes appeared, floating around and hiding in the void. As the chant reached its climax, the golden runes returned, converging into the Everlasting Fairy’s eyes.

Her eyes shone bright gold, radiant and lively.

“I see…”

“What did the fairy see?”

“I see that from tonight to tomorrow during the day, there will be moderate rain turning clear, with temperatures from fifteen to nineteen degrees, and a southeast wind…”

Lu Yang: “???”

The Everlasting Fairy continued, “I can also see that the day after tomorrow will be clear, turning to partly cloudy, with temperatures from seventeen to twenty-four degrees…”

As the Everlasting Fairy went on to give a weather forecast for the day after tomorrow, Lu Yang quickly interrupted.

“Wait, fairy, is this what you learned about foreseeing the future?”

Did the Immemorial Immortal dare to let you graduate with such skills without fearing tarnishing his reputation?

The Everlasting Fairy solemnly said to Lu Yang, “Your perspective is too narrow. Do you think foreseeing the future only involves predicting what you or I will do?”

“I once shared your doubts, and the Immemorial Immortal solemnly told me, how is predicting the weather not a part of foreseeing the future?”

“Rather, predicting the weather is even more challenging than predicting human actions.”

“What does weather represent? It represents the changes in heaven and earth. Heaven and earth come before humans. Predicting the changes of heaven and earth is definitely much more difficult than predicting human behavior.”

“My ability to predict the weather precisely demonstrates that I have mastered this technique to a great extent! Even if others wished to achieve what I have, they couldn’t!”

The Everlasting Fairy repeated to Lu Yang what the Immemorial Immortal had said to her, feeling pleased with herself for lecturing a student—ah, no, for feeling like a teacher.

Lu Yang suspected that the Everlasting Fairy was deceived by the Immemorial Immortal, but he couldn’t defeat the Immemorial Immortal, so he dared not question it.

“Can you predict anything else?”

“Only the weather.”

Lu Yang was certain that the Everlasting Fairy was deceived by the Immemorial Immortal, but he couldn’t defeat the Immemorial Immortal.

The ancient era was so cruel. Even immortals lacked basic humanity, deceiving even fools, which is despicable!

“Is your weather forecast reliable? The Dao Seeking Sect experiences spring all year round, with rare rainfall.” Lu Yang looked at the Everlasting Fairy skeptically, doubting the success rate of the technique.

“My weather forecasts have never been wrong!”

“So, you’re teaching me to forecast the weather?” Lu Yang’s eyes twitched, retracting his initial thoughts.

This golden finger indeed wasn’t very useful.

“What I’ve learned is the highest realm of foreseeing the future, predicting the weather. Your talent for techniques is good, but it still falls short compared to mine. Besides, you’re only at the Foundation Building stage. How could you learn to the extent I have?”

Lu Yang didn’t quite understand where the Everlasting Fairy’s pride was coming from.

“So, you’re actually teaching me the normal way of foreseeing the future, but you yourself ended up with weather forecasting?”

“Right.”

Lu Yang felt this was probably what “People who don’t belong together, will not live together ” meant.

As his Nascent Soul, it was normal for the Everlasting Fairy to share some similarities with him.

“Will you learn?”

“Yes!”

“Since you’re going to learn, you must start from the very basics of the ancient language. The gap between the ancient language and the current language is vast. You won’t learn it immediately. To see quick results, you just need to learn the ancient words used when casting the foresight technique.”

The Everlasting Fairy paused and then repeated the ancient words she had just said.

“What does that mean?” Lu Yang was curious.

The Everlasting Fairy translated, “What I just said was, ‘Spirit of heaven and earth, Immemorial Immortal you wretched turtle grandson, show your spirit!’”

Lu Yang instinctively stepped back two paces, fearing that Immemorial Immortal would descend and pinch him to death with one finger.

Lu Yang felt that learning techniques from the Everlasting Fairy didn’t even ensure basic survival. Eldest Senior Sister was more reliable.

“Repeat after me.” fr𝙤m ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com.

“Hmm, just to be safe, I have to ask, is it necessary to say ‘wretched turtle grandson’?”

“That’s not necessary. It’s just a modal particle; it can be included or omitted.”

(TL Note: In linguistics, modal particles are always uninflected words, and are a type of grammatical particle. They are used to indicate how the speaker thinks that the content of the sentence relates to the participants’ common knowledge or to add emotion to the meaning of the sentence.)
