Who Let Him Cultivate?!-Chapter 1051 - 1050: Past Buddha, Present Buddha, and Future Buddha

"Has your immortal body been fully shaped?" Lu Yang asked, aware that the immortal body the Time Immortal had been condensing for three hundred thousand years felt much stronger than the one he temporarily condensed.

"It was completed over a decade ago," replied the Time Immortal with a smile, indicating his current peak state.

"Do you know Tang Chuanwu?"

"Tang Chuanwu? Oh, he’s the kid to whom I granted the ability of Time Retrospection after foreseeing the possibility of him encountering a deadly calamity in the future."

"To test the reaction of the hidden enemy behind the scenes?" Lu Yang asked again.

The Time Immortal looked at Lu Yang with surprise and revealed a smile, "Exactly."

"Although I wasn’t able to clearly see who ambushed me back then, the hidden enemy also isn’t sure whether I saw them or not. So, I gave Tang Chuanwu the ability of Time Retrospection to inform the hidden enemy that I am still alive. They will surely want to find me and might reveal their flaws in their haste."

Lu Yang thought to himself that it indeed was as he suspected. When he had previously speculated about the user of the Time Dao Fruit, he wondered if the user was using Tang Chuanwu to send a message to the hidden enemy.

What message to shout? It was the Time Immortal informing the hidden enemy, "I am still alive."

Later on, Lu Yang also learned the origin of the Time Seeking Immortal Order, which used the oppression of a Dao Fruit over an immature Dao Fruit to locate the Time Immortal.

The suppression of a Dao Fruit over its immature form is not something you can simply escape by hiding in a Small World; otherwise, the Qilin Immortal would have long ago hidden in a Small World, allowing the outsiders Ao Ling and Jiang Lianyi to become immortals.

The fact that the Great Qian Dynasty was able to create the Time Seeking Immortal Order indicates that the user of the Time Dao Fruit existed during the Great Qian Period.

Both of these facts imply the possibility that the Time Immortal is still alive.

Thus, when Lu Yang saw the Time Immortal in the Mahavira Hall, he wasn’t too surprised.

But this gives rise to another question—just who is the reincarnation of Li Haoran?

If Li Haoran is not the reincarnation of the Time Immortal, then could he be the reincarnation of the immortal who was possessed by the hidden enemy?!

As long as Li Haoran continues to improve his cultivation level, he will be able to revive his memories and thus learn who he was in his first life.

If that’s the case, then the fact that Junior Brother Li is a reincarnation must not become known to others.

If the hidden enemy finds out about Junior Brother Li’s existence, they will certainly stop at nothing to kill him!

"Young friend Lu Yang, since you’ve brought up Tang Chuanwu, does that mean you’ve met him?"

"I have. The hidden enemy has made a move, but they didn’t act directly, leaving few clues," Lu Yang replied.

"I see," sighed the Time Immortal with a hint of regret. The hidden enemy indeed is very cautious.

Suddenly, a knocking sound came from outside the door of the Mahavira Hall.

"Junior Brother, are you in there?"

"Who is it?!" The Time Immortal was startled.

"Hey, just a little girl," the Immortal Fairy said casually, waving her hand, "Little Yang, go open the door."

While Lu Yang went to open the door, Immortal Fairy quietly sent a message to the Time Immortal.

"Hey Time, did you say before that the future is not set in stone?"

The Time Immortal paused for a moment, then nodded, "I did say that, what about it?"

"The Nian Beast carried us here to Buddha Country, and on the way, we entered the Time Torrent. We saw things from the past, as well as a glimpse of the future."

"So what did you see?" The Time Immortal’s expression turned curious; he had never seen the Immortal Fairy acting so hesitantly before.

"What I saw, it was me reluctantly saying goodbye to Little Yang, saying ’I really can’t bear to leave you.’"

The Time Immortal was immediately taken aback.

"What?"

"That’s why I’m asking you, can the future I saw be changed?"

Time Immortal’s expression became serious, as he realized this was an extremely important matter, "What time in the future did you see?"

...

Lu Yang pushed open the door of the Mahavira Hall, where outside stood a swordswoman in a long white robe, wearing a bamboo hat covered with white cloth, concealing her face.

Upon seeing Lu Yang, the swordswoman took off her hat, revealing her delicate face, it was the Eldest Senior Sister.

"Eldest Senior Sister, why did you come?" Lu Yang was pleasantly surprised as he clearly hadn’t called for her.

"Your Second Senior Brother contacted me with a relay paper, saying something happened at the Western Paradise Temple."

Lu Yang felt he had everything under control, and indeed it was so, but clearly Ye Zijin didn’t think the same.

"Relay paper?" Lu Yang remembered that the Third Senior Sister used such paper to contact the Eldest Senior Sister while she was in the Demon Territory, it seems the Second Senior Brother also had one.

"Then why don’t I have it?"

"I was worried about the safety of the Second Disciple and the Third Junior Sister, so I gave them relay papers. Of course, you don’t need such a thing."

Yun Zhi studied her junior brother, whom she hadn’t seen for months, and rarely showed a hint of a smile.

"After the Nian Beast took you away, Mengmeng was quite worried about you. It seems you did well in Buddha Country, even condensing an Immortal Body," she said.

Touching the back of his head, Lu Yang smiled sheepishly, "I just took a shortcut. Please come in, Senior Sister. Fairy and Time Immortal are inside."

"Oh, you found Time Immortal too?" Yun Zhi knew that her junior brother could take care of himself. He could handle situations on his own while traveling and even encounter such fortunate adventures afterward.

"Come here, Miss Yun, let me introduce you. This glowing Buddha statue is Time Immortal," Fairy Eternity said, patting Time Immortal’s shoulder.

"Junior Yun Zhi pays respect to Time Immortal," she greeted.

"Immortal, who exactly is this person?" asked Time Immortal upon meeting Yun Zhi for the first time, feeling there was something extraordinary about her but couldn’t pinpoint what it was.

He seemed to have heard the name Yun Zhi from Ming Yu, describing her as the true Sect Leader of the Seek Dao Sect.

Fairy Eternity stood proudly between Lu Yang and Yun Zhi, pointing at herself: "I am the strongest from Ancient Times."

Then she pointed to Yun Zhi on her right: "Miss Yun is the strongest of the present day."

"Little Yang is the strongest of the future."

Embracing both to her left and right, Fairy Eternity chuckled happily, "We three are the strongest cultivators of the past, present, and future!"

"Isn’t there something in Buddhism about a Past Buddha, Present Buddha, and Future Buddha? Time, when you look back, you should include the three of us," she suggested.

"The strongest of the present?" Time Immortal was startled. It wasn’t easy to earn such high praise from someone as proud as Eternity.

But given that Lu Yang was dubbed "the strongest of the future," he couldn’t help but feel that the "strongest of the present" title was somewhat inflated.

"What, you don’t believe it? If you don’t believe it, why don’t you spar with her?" Fairy Eternity egged on.

Time Immortal truly didn’t believe it, as if not for an accident along the way, he would have been the first to become an immortal. And afterwards, he came into possession of the mysterious Time Dao Fruit; besides Fairy Eternity, he really feared no one.

"Then, let’s try!" Having not had the chance to flex his muscles since condensing the Incense Immortal Body, this was the perfect opportunity!

Yun Zhi and Time Immortal faced each other, the atmosphere tense. Time Immortal used the Time Dao Fruit to examine all future possibilities!

"Please enlighten me, senior," Yun Zhi said calmly.

"Wait a moment." Just before the battle started, Time Immortal suddenly spoke, "Immortal, what did you say just now?"

"Spar with her?"

"The sentence before that."

"What, you don’t believe it?"

"I believe it."
