Chapter 183: Chapter 182: Knowing the Future 1
Lu Yang felt that Fairy Eternity’s inability to predict the future was primarily due to the lack of serious teachings from Time Immortal.
Lu Yang was learning the ancient language from Fairy Eternity, and the unfamiliar vocabulary was jumping out one after another.
After a few recitations, Lu Yang was able to fluently speak the sentence.
“By the way, to resurrect you, Fairy, wouldn’t it still work whether I used the ancient language or the current language to pronounce your name?” asked Lu Yang, recalling that he spoke the present language when he resurrected Fairy Eternity.
“To think, my Dao Fruit is called ‘Eternity’ and with it, I endure through the ages. How can I be bound by the distinctions of language? But Yingtian Immortal and the others do not know this,” Fairy Eternity giggled, sounding quite mischievous” as she shared this little secret with Lu Yang.
“Don’t go telling anyone about this. I only told you because you resurrected me and let me reside in your body for such a long time!” Fairy Eternity warned.
“Absolutely!” Lu Yang patted his chest and promised.
Lu Yang started to earnestly learn how to predict the future. He sat cross- legged, quietly pondering this renowned magic skill and Divine Ability told in ancient legends.
Lu Yang hardly sought guidance from Fairy Eternity, for fear that she might lead him astray. But still, he had to ask when he encountered something he couldn’t understand.
Fairy Eternity watched as Lu Yang gradually touched on the core of predicting the future and secretly marveled. This indicated that Lu Yang was not far from mastering it.
She claimed that Lu Yang’s gift for magic skills was inferior to hers because she was too shy to admit that Lu Yang’s talent surpassed hers.
She could not learn time magic skills during her Foundation Establishment Stage.
For a mid-stage Foundation Establishment stage cultivator, who had mastered Heaven and Earth in an Inch, a spatial magic skill, and was about to learn a time magic skill like predicting the future, calling Lu Yang a genius would not be an exaggeration.
Fairy Eternity quickly brushed this off. After all, she wasn’t very skilled in magic skills. So, why compare her weak point with Lu Yang’s strength?
Lu Yang solemnly recited the ancient language. With his middle and index fingers together, he bellowed, “Predict the future!”
“Did it work?” Fairy Eternity was surprised. He learned so quickly.
Golden runes appeared around Lu Yang, dissolving into the void. About three minutes later, the golden runes escaped the void and returned to Lu Yang’s body.
Lu Yang’s eyes glowed brightly, much like gold; he had successfully seen the future!
“I see… myself two minutes ago?!”
Seeing the picture of himself from two minutes ago, Lu Yang was dumbfounded. He was lifting his arm, waiting for the golden runes’ feedback, looking rather silly.
The corner of his eye twitched. Theoretically, he had mastered predicting the future, able to foresee events one minute after casting the spell.
But in reality, he had to wait three minutes to know the result.
“What’s the use of this?” Lu Yang complained.
Lu Yang figured it’s probably because he hadn’t perfected his skills yet.
“Let’s practice again.”
Lu Yang reflected on his actions to identify potential mistakes, fill in the gaps, and tried again.
After casting the magic skill and waiting for three minutes, he saw the events one and a half minutes after casting the spell.
“… I guess that’s some progress.” Lu Yang comforted himself and cheered up.
“You can do it!” Fairy Eternity also encouraged him from the side.
“Let’s go again!”
After the Five Elements Sect left, his Senior Brothers and Sisters took turns fighting with Lu Yang until dawn and then buried him in the small woods of Sky Gate Mountain.
Lu Yang passed Fairy’s test and started to practice diligently from dawn.
Time passed from morning to evening. The sun turned to the moon. The moonlight poured over the Seek Dao Sect like a tide, casting a mysterious veil over it.
The heaven rewarded the diligent. After continuously practicing, finding and solving the issues he encountered, the length of the future he could predict was getting longer and closer to the three-minute mark.
Suddenly, Lu Yang felt a thunderous explosion in his mind like something had been unlocked, and he stepped over the three-minute mark, successfully predicting the future.
Lu Yang s eyes shone brilliantly, like two glowing candles in the night, extremely noticeable.
“What did you see?” an excited Fairy Eternity asked.
Lu Yang had a strange expression: “I saw a scene. Eldest Senior Sister was leaving Captive Peak. I ran to her and said I wanted to learn from my master, how to lay around, do nothing but eat and play ah day, refusing to cultivate or do anything useful. Eldest Senior Sister smiled faintly, held me in her arms and patted my back, saying that she would support me in the future.”
“Really?” Fairy Eternity was shocked. What a strange future.
“It feels real!” Lu Yang was also puzzled.
“Why do I feel there’s something strange about this?” Fairy Eternity pondered before suggesting, “Time Immortal once said that the future couldn’t be changed. Since you saw it, it’s certain to happen.”
“The only way to verify the truth is to test it!”
Lu Yang felt that Fairy Eternity made a valid point and rushed towards Captive Peak.
Right then, Yun Zhi had just come out from Captive Peak, leaving traces of blood on her fists. Although she still wore a poker face, anyone familiar with her knew that she was in a good mood.
She had successfully obtained a vast amount of information about the Eternity Sect from the two deputies, including the location of the Eternity Sect’s headquarters.
Upon seeing the excited Lu Yang ran towards her, Yun Zhi asked, “Junior Brother, what’s the matter?”
Lu Yang answered with a brilliant smile, “I definitely need to learn from master, being idler, spending all day eating or playing without cultivating or doing anything productive,”
Rumble- – Crack–
Unexpectedly, the otherwise clear sky abruptly became overcast, filled with lightning and thunder, and heavy rain began to pour.
“Oh, it’s raining. I knew it would rain tonight!” Fairy Eternity felt proud. Her weather forecast was incredibly accurate.
Lu Yang noticed that once he finished speaking, Eldest Senior Sister went from expressionless to a faint smile. But combined with the thundering sky and his own intuition, this smile was pressuring Lu Yang greatly.
It was a matter of life and death!
Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Lu Yang hurried back into his Spiritual Space, secretly asking, “Fairy, will emotional changes due to a high cultivation level manipulate the weather?”
“Yes.”
Lu Yang finally understood why it was raining in the usually dry Seek Dao Sect.
He just provoked Eldest Senior Sister!
“Your weather forecast is so accurate, Fairy Eternity!” Lu Yang gritted his teeth.
In reality, Yun Zhi gently patted Lu Yang’s shoulder, asking in a soft voice, “Junior brother, have you been pushing yourself so hard with cultivation that you started talking nonsense?”
Lu Yang shuddered, automatically shaking his head. Realizing his mistake, he hastily started nodding like a pecking chicken, unable to voice a single word.
He finally figured out what spell he had concocted.
Predicting the Future—foreseeing things that will never happen.
