Who Let Him Cultivate?!
Chapter 1149 - 1148: Modifying the Constraints of the Timeline

"Was it really about altering the timeline? Such a troublesome ability," the Time Immortal frowned. This ability was truly indefensible.

"And that's just one of the abilities," Lu Yang said, "The Fairy's downfall should be unrelated to the alteration of the timeline."

"How so? Is it because when the Immortal Fairy fell, the world forgot about her, but the four of us still remember? If it's about altering the timeline, shouldn't the four of us be unable to remember her as well?"

"Not just for that reason. From what has been shown so far, the mysterious manipulator behind the scenes does not alter the timeline at will."

"During the ten thousand years from the disappearance of the Immortal Fairy to the fall of the Fire Dynasty, he did not alter the timeline to one where the 'Four Ancient Immortals' did not exist, which suggests that there are restrictions on altering the timeline. As for what those restrictions are, it's still unknown; it could be that they cannot erase beings that are too powerful or they cannot modify time nodes that are too far apart."

If even the Four Ancient Immortals could not be erased, how could the Immortal Fairy be erased?

"How did you conclude that time nodes too far apart cannot be modified?" The Immortal Fairy was a bit confused.

"Let me give you a simple example. What would be the easiest way for the manipulator behind the scenes to erase the Yingtian Immortal by altering the timeline?"

"Senior Ying Tian was once buried as a sacrificial offering and later escaped. The easiest way would be to alter the timeline to prevent his escape, making him die in the tomb."

"But the manipulator behind the scenes didn't do that."

"That's why I said that the manipulator behind the scenes probably can't modify time nodes that are too far apart."

"As for why the manipulator behind the scenes can alter the timeline, I suspect it's due to the ability of the Cause and Effect Dao Fruit to reverse cause and effect."

Everyone nodded; Lu Yang's counterstrategy was quite reasonable.

"However, I still haven't figured out why the manipulator behind the scenes would want to alter the timeline this time."

Lu Yang's gaze fell on the segment of time involving Jin Caiwei and Mr. Shi.

...

"Jin Cuoshi, are you sure the bizarre legends in the black market originated with you?" Lu Yang once again found Mr. Shi, causing him to tremble with fear.

Although he didn't know Lu Yang's identity, the fact that he could even calm a furious ancestor spoke volumes of the terrifying presence he was.

"It really was me." Mr. Shi shook like a sieve. Wasn't this matter already in the past? Why was it being brought up again?

Lu Yang was certain Mr. Shi was not lying. He had also visited the black market; the bizarre legends there were exactly the same as Mr. Shi's actions.

However, in the original timeline, Mr. Shi had denied this, meaning the original bizarre legends of the black market weren't his doing, but someone else's, and the manipulator behind the scenes wanted to conceal this person.

Had the manipulator behind the scenes transferred the cause onto Mr. Shi?

"Are these bizarre legends only present in this city, or do they exist in other cities as well?"

"Of course not," Mr. Shi said confidently. He used the Recording Orb to hide a female ghost to boost the sales of the Recording Orb. He wasn't in charge of other cities; boosting the sales of the Recording Orb in other cities had nothing to do with him.

Lu Yang lowered his head in thought, then shook his head with a sigh. It seemed he really couldn't ask anything more; the current clues could only lead to this point.

Plus, if he truly could deduce the hidden matters the manipulator behind the scenes wanted to conceal, he feared the manipulator would continue to alter the timeline.

Unable to trace the next step in the clues, there was no need for Yun Zhi and the Time Immortal to stay any longer.

"Junior Brother, you must cultivate diligently and strive to reach the Body Integration Realm soon," Yun Zhi advised before leaving, her cold eyes darting back and forth between Lu Yang and the Immortal Fairy, somewhat worried that her Junior Brother might one day succumb to temptation and join the Immortal Fairy.

But since the Junior Brother in the impossible future had joined the Immortal Fairy, that meant this future wouldn't happen...right?

"Use methods like predicting the future sparingly," Yun Zhi cautioned again, fearing her Junior Brother's curiosity might lead him to watch the blocked segments.

"Alright!"

"Then I'll be leaving too; if you encounter any difficulties in the Buddha Country, feel free to seek me out," the Time Immortal said, not having known until now that Lu Yang had come to the Buddha Country.

After Yun Zhi and the Time Immortal left, Lu Yang returned to the Ancestral Temple.

At the entrance of the Ancestral Temple, Yun Mengmeng and Jin Caiwei were planting trees, with dirt on their faces, probably from the planting.

"This way, we can cultivate the Immortal Spirit Fruit. How amazing," Yun Mengmeng was learning how to cultivate the Immortal Spirit Fruit from Jin Caiwei.

"Definitely, that's how I cultivate the plane Spirit Fruit. I just wonder what it would taste like to add the Immortal Spirit Fruit to cookies."

"Second-in-command, you're back!" Yun Mengmeng looked up, saw Lu Yang returning, and happily wiped the dirt from her face with her arm, smearing it more.

"I'm back. Just now my Time Magic had some advancement, but this Ancestral Temple is too small for proper casting, so I had to step out for a while," Lu Yang boasted casually.

"Time Magic, that's amazing!" Yun Mengmeng was astounded, having never seen Time Magic in her life.

Sitting on the Lotus Platform of the Ancestral Temple, Lu Yang's thoughts were a mess, continuously recalling the impossible futures he had seen.

"Fairy, can you really not use the Power of Faith to gather an Immortal Body?"

"Sh-shouldn't be able to?" The Immortal Fairy's eyes darted anxiously. What to do, what to do, she was not good at lying.

"Right, Little Lotus, come here for a moment." Inspiration struck the Immortal Fairy, and she called Qinghe in from outside the Ancestral Temple.

"Greetings, my lord." Qinghe flicked her sleeves, curling them around her arms, slightly bending her body, hands overlapped blocking her face, demonstrating that the holy face should not be seen.

"Just now, Little Yang said that I could use the Power of Faith to gather an Immortal Body. Little Lotus, you are most proficient with the Power of Faith, what do you think?"

Qinghe's eyes brightened, and she couldn't hide the smile on her face. Had the lord finally come to her senses, about to leave Lu Yang?

"Reporting to my lord, of course it is possible..."

"Hmm?" The Immortal Fairy questioned with a nasal tone.

"Is it possible...?" Qinghe hesitated, unsure of her lord's intentions. Having served the Immortal Fairy for so long, she hadn't encountered this type of situation before.

"I'm asking you." The Immortal Fairy avoided Lu Yang's gaze and made faces at Qinghe.

"...Of course it is not possible," Qinghe stated seriously.

"The lord's Immortal Body is noble beyond words. Even a glance is an affront, let alone using the Power of Faith, which would defile the lord's precious body. Lu Guozhu, refrain from mentioning this matter again!"

"Really? It's not possible?" Lu Yang looked at Qinghe skeptically, "Qinghe, you seem to be in a bad mood?"

He had a feeling that Qinghe was holding back tears while speaking.

Qinghe swallowed hard, determined not to show weakness in front of Lu Yang: "No, I'm not in a bad mood. I just feel sad thinking that the lord can't gather an Immortal Body."
