Who Let Him Cultivate?!
Chapter 1147 - 1146 One of the Behind-the-scenes Manipulator's Methods

"Where is Bone Layman?" The Life-bound Magical Treasures of the two Tribulation Cultivators activated, but they lost their target.

They had been worried about being detected by Bone Layman and didn't dare to use their Spiritual Sense to probe, and now, after all the trouble, they didn't know where the person had gone.

"Big brother, is your information accurate?"

"Of course it's accurate, Bone Layman was definitely here before!" Big brother asserted confidently, his source of information was absolutely reliable, "It seems he has moved locations!"

"If he's not here, then he's not here. Let's go, big brother." The little brother had a chilling feeling, regardless of whether Bone Layman had been here before, he found the place to be eerily strange.

Although they were Divine Transformation Stage Cultivators, they were far from invincible, and there were many unknowns in the world; the more you know, the faster you died.

Big brother, skeptical of superstitions, explored the cave inside and out, and couldn't find a single trace; he couldn't help but curse, "Damn it, cleaned up so thoroughly, nothing left behind, let's just go."

On the way back, the little brother saw that big brother was in low spirits and kindly tried to cheer him up, "Big brother, let's think positively. It's lucky that Bone Layman wasn't here. If he had been, with his curse techniques and other wicked methods, we would have fallen right there."

Even though they were both Divine Transformation Stage Cultivators and numerically had the advantage, it didn't necessarily decide the outcome.

For example, people like Lu Yang, who had extraordinary talents and could fight above their level, or those Cultivators who mastered unusual magic skills like time or causality.

Big brother waved his hand impatiently, "Get lost, you're just trying to comfort me. Curse techniques, those aren't so easy to come by."

...

Spiritual Space.

Lu Yang pondered for a moment, then looked up and asked, "Time Immortal, who is stronger between you and Senior Ying Tian?"

The Time Immortal was taken aback, then quickly understood Lu Yang's meaning, and said with an odd expression, "Although I always say I'm stronger than the three of them, when it really comes down to understanding the Dao Fruit, Ying Tian and I aren't much different."

"Are you saying Immortal Fairy and Daoist Yun Zhi sensed something because they are strong enough, and I sensed something because this matter is related to 'time'?"

Lu Yang nodded, "That's what I mean."

To understand the root of this matter, the first thing was to find the differences between Eldest Senior Sister, the Fairy, and the Time Immortal.

And the biggest difference was that the Time Immortal wasn't strong enough.

Since the Time Immortal wasn't strong enough but still sensed the change, while Ying Tian Immortal and others didn't, it suggested that the problem lay with "time."

The Time Immortal was about to nod, then suddenly realized something was off, "Wait, didn't you also sense something vaguely?"

Although you're an Immortal Body, you're not stronger than me.

Lu Yang frankly admitted, "I have the blessing of Immortal Fairy."

The Time Immortal: "..."

Lu Yang then remembered another thing, "And Time Immortal, you were ambushed at the end of the Fire Dynasty, and you suspect that the unseen hand's ability is related to time, right?"

"Yes, that's what I think."

The Time Immortal continued, "I've checked with Time Dao Fruit, and there was no occurrence of time reversal, which means it wasn't time reversal."

The Time Immortal had great confidence in his Dao Fruit; no matter how powerful the unseen hand was, it couldn't have tampered with it and still deceived him.

Having said that, the Time Immortal stood up, hands behind his back, and circled the three, his thoughts somewhat stuck.

Related to time, yet not time reversal, yet feeling like something was forgotten, what exactly was the method used by the unseen hand?

"Maybe what Zuo Shi Immortal saw in the past is also related to the method used by the unseen hand now," Lu Yang murmured to himself.

Hearing Lu Yang's murmuring, the Time Immortal suddenly stopped walking, his eyes lighting up, "Wait, could it be..."

"What is it?"

"Time line! The unseen hand can manipulate the time line!"

"Time line?" Yun Zhi repeated, a term she had never heard before.

Lu Yang had actually meant to guess the time line, but he wasn't sure if the Time Immortal would describe the phenomenon as "time line," hence he hinted through murmuring.

The Time Immortal squatted on the ground and used a branch to draw a straight line with no beginning or end.

"This line represents time."

He could have demonstrated with magic skills, but his true form being the Firmament Tree, he preferred to use branches to draw and explain principles, it was in his nature.

He then selected a point on the line, "This is the present."

Using this point as the starting point, he drew a semicircle back towards the past, "This is called Time Retrospection."

"The other end of the semicircle where it meets the time line is the 'past'."

"Tang Chuanwu was just in this situation; after he went back to the past and did something, the future would change."

The Time Immortal erased the line from "past" to "future" and drew a new line from the "past," slightly deviating from the original future.

"After changing the future, the original future disappears; this is the fundamental principle of Time Retrospection."

The Time Immortal then pointed at the time point representing the "past," with an unprecedentedly solemn tone, "I suspect the unseen hand's method is to change the past directly without going through Time Retrospection, causing the future to change!"

"That's why Immortal Fairy and Daoist Yun Zhi experienced the phenomenon of feeling like they forgot something!"

"Lu's words reminded me, do you still remember the past that Zuo Shi Immortal saw? Our four personalities changed significantly, and Immortal Fairy alone deduced the path to becoming immortal through Dao Fruit."

"Maybe this is a false world line created by the unseen hand, deliberately shown to Zuo Shi Immortal!"

"Yes, it all makes sense this way!"

The Time Immortal grew more excited as he spoke, and after four hundred thousand years, he was finally able to confirm one of the unseen hand's methods, or at least one of them.

"No, I can't conclude so recklessly, maybe there's something I haven't guessed yet."

The Time Immortal quickly calmed down again; the assassination three hundred thousand years ago made him cautious, and the unseen hand still had many mysteries unexplained, making rash conclusions could lead them further astray on the wrong path.

Still lacking proof of the method.

And the abilities of Time Dao Fruit couldn't verify it.

Seeing the atmosphere turn somewhat awkward, with the Time Immortal remaining silent, Eldest Senior Sister and Immortal Fairy also not speaking, pondering methods, Lu Yang cautiously raised his hand to make his presence felt.

"Maybe I have a way."

"What way do you have?" The Time Immortal was very surprised; he couldn't think of a way to prove it, and you have one?

Eldest Senior Sister and Immortal Fairy also looked towards Lu Yang, wanting to know his method.

Being watched by them, especially with Eldest Senior Sister and Immortal Fairy's eyes seemingly revealing unreasonable trust and expectation, put a lot of pressure on Lu Yang.

"Maybe, I just mean maybe, I've never tried it."

"I can predict the future."
