I have Immortality In The Cultivation World

The terrifying pressure suddenly descended as Zhou Yi spoke, and sweat poured down his face, while his legs trembled and he nearly fell to his knees.

Having lived for thousands of years, the strength of the immortals was unparalleled. Their moods, arbitrary and fickle, a single misplaced word could lead to soul disintegration!

The so-called undercover scouts seemed important to the Severing Heaven Sect, but in reality, they were insignificant to the elder ancestors of the immortals.

The mood of the ancestor was what truly mattered!

"Master, please calm your anger, your disciple..."

Zhou Yi's mind, with its 3,600 core perceptions, spun at its limits. Ever since he encountered the Crimson Feather Immortal, he replayed each moment in his head, until a moment of epiphany prompted him to exclaim.

"Master's wife?"

The pressure vanished in an instant, and Crimson Feather Immortal spoke with a smile tugging at the corner of her mouth.

"What did you say? Speak up, I didn't hear you clearly!"

"Master's wife, master's wife, master's wife..."

Zhou Yi called out several times in a row, his face a picture of humble respect, but inwardly a tumultuous wave was surging.

This world was too crazy!

Who could have imagined that two immortals, who had been at odds for thousands of years, would have such a complex relationship? Judging by the Crimson Feather Immortal's manner, it seemed like a case of a woman chasing a man. Add to that the fundamental doctrinal dispute between the Mend Heaven Sect and the Severing Heaven Sect...

"Excellent, excellent, indeed you are a clever one!"

Crimson Feather Immortal praised him repeatedly, then took a flying shuttle artifact from her sleeve and said, "I heard your Master gave you the Yellow Dragon Bell, and naturally, as Master's wife, I should not be outdone. This Nine Heavens Mystic Shuttle shall serve as your conveyance."

"Thank you, Master's wife. I will indeed serve Master well so that he may soon appreciate the depths of Master's wife's thoughtful intentions."

Zhou Yi took the Nine Heavens Mystic Shuttle, and as his Divine Sense scanned over it and saw the shape of the Artifact Spirit—a strange bird with four wings, eight tails and no feet—a message entered his mind.

Great Wind!

A primordial ferocious beast, said to be a descendant of the divine phoenix, naturally harnessing the wind to travel at unparalleled speeds.

Spiritual Artifacts were rare in the world and were mostly used for defense and combat; those specifically designed for escaping were even rarer. The value of the Nine Heavens Mystic Shuttle was a few points higher than that of the Yellow Dragon Bell.

Given such a generous gift upon their first meeting, and unable to refuse it, Zhou Yi started to ponder how to persuade the Iron Crown Immortal, braving the cold and obstructive society to valiantly achieve a fine romance with a wealthy woman.

A woman of great talent and immortal status!

"Master, all of this is for your own good!"

Moreover, if the two became Daoist partners, Zhou Yi would transition from being a clandestine informant of the Two Sects to truly inheriting their teachings—his status would be invaluable!

Perhaps he would become a figure remembered in the Cultivation World, and thousands or even tens of thousands of years later, Zhou Yi could read the historical records about himself.

Crimson Feather Immortal seemed to see through Zhou Yi's thoughts, her face smiling as she asked, "Do you know why I want to become Daoist partners with your Master?"

"Your disciple wouldn't dare to speculate," Zhou Yi responded.

Zhou Yi listened intently, expecting to hear a story of poignant love and yearning but was completely surprised by what came next.

"My Master, and your Grandmaster, predicted my ascension before he passed away and sacrificed his life to calculate my fate," Crimson Feather Immortal said slowly. "From the heavenly secrets he gleaned, my path to Immortality was bound to your Master. All we need is to perform Dual Cultivation as Daoist partners, and both of us could ascend to the Immortal Realm, stable and secure!"

Such fortuitous events truly existed in this world!

Zhou Yi showed an envious look, marveling at the fortune of the Iron Crown Immortal, who had effortlessly gained an invincible wealthy woman as his wife, and asked.

"Master's wife, is it because of the rules and enmity of the Two Sects that you couldn't become Daoist partners?"

"In this Dongsheng Divine Continent, there are no rules that can stop me!"

Crimson Feather Immortal's gaze swept over everything, her confidence virtually unassailable. As an immortal atop the mortal realm, she was bound by nothing.

The dispute between the Two Sects was also in accordance with the will of the immortals!

"Alas, affairs of the heart are not tied to realm or strength. Love blooms, but the river flows on uncaring. Even if your Master is as cold as Mysterious Ice, after thousands of years, it should have melted. Yet, he remains unyielding like a chunk of iron!"

"I understand," said Zhou Yi as he bowed. "I will surely find a way to matchmake Master and Master's wife. Should both ascend as Daoist partners, it would indeed be a beautiful tale!"

The Iron Crown Immortal's thoughts were fixed on slaying demons, protecting his disciples, and saving lives. It was said that despite thousands of years of cultivation, he had never dallied in pleasure quarters, and any female cultivator expressing affection was either sent down the mountain or treated as a demon trying to corrupt his Daoist heart!

In Zhou Yi's view, this was no longer about being a straight-forward man but rather having an iron will!

Crimson Feather Immortal nodded slightly and took a jade slip from her sleeve, saying, "This is the Severing Heaven Technique, a secret teaching of my sect that can glimpse the opportunity for ascension. Peruse it at your leisure."

Zhou Yi accepted the jade slip, his Divine Sense scanning over it to reveal tens of thousands of densely packed words.

It was not just the complete Severing Heaven Technique, but also included many annotations by previous experts.

Compared to the minor Severing Heaven technique, the complete version's effect was much stronger.

Similarly costing life-span as the price, divining one day would cost a year of life-span, but it could consume more life-span at once. For example, by divining tomorrow's fortune or misfortune during New Year's greetings, one could significantly increase the chances of avoiding a deadly calamity.

A Nascent Soul Daoist could use up five hundred years of life-span to divine even a celestial immortal's tribulations.

In the eyes of ordinary cultivators, this practice was akin to a suicidal form of divination; yet for Zhou Yi, it was merely a mere five hundred years of life-span.

"Thanking the Teacher's Wife for bestowing the method upon me, I shall cultivate diligently!"

"Your teacher must have mentioned that our Sect's rise and fall are both due to Severing Heaven," she said.

Crimson Feather Immortal spoke, "As cultivators attempt to predict the Heavenly Secrets in advance, they naturally think about changing the Heavenly Secrets. Hence, the Heavenly Secrets also evolve accordingly. What you're doing may not be the right choice, and perhaps a fall into an abyss lies just ahead!"

The changes in Heavenly Secrets were unpredictable and beyond human control.

Though celestial immortals were powerful, they still belonged to the Mortal World and could only glimpse a corner of the Heavenly Secrets.

The reason why the Severing Heaven Sect's cultivators chose to follow the Heavenly Secrets was due to the fear of unpredictable changes in the cosmic situation.

If the Cultivation World were thriving, that would be a great merit; but if it were to perish, that would be a colossal karmic entanglement!

"I will bear in mind the Teacher's Wife's guidance," said Zhou Yi.

Zhou continued, "I have always been cautious and prudent, never divining for breakthrough opportunities on my path, only forecasting fortune and misfortune to avoid being schemed against unknowingly." Enjoy exclusive adventures from empire

"Go now."

With a sigh, Crimson Feather immortal swept Zhou Yi out the door, and the palace gate thundered shut behind him.

"Farewell to the Teacher's Wife!"

Zhou Yi, not daring to presume any further, pondered for a long while. Deciding not to linger in the Severing Heaven blessed land, he manipulated his escape light and flew toward the Heavenly Mountain.

"If before the Divine Enthronement happens, Bu Tian and Jie Tian could become one family, then what could possibly stand in the way of the overwhelming trend? The so-called Divine Enthronement would just be a matter of the two Sects' ancestors discussing and casually determining all the divine positions..."

With these thoughts, his escape light flew out of the blessed land, heading south.

He had only flown a few thousand li when he encountered a bald monk coming toward him.

Wearing a moon-white monk's robe, with palms pressed together, his face bore a compassionate smile. As the five-colored escape light approached, he was about to speak.

"Misfortune..."

Zhou Yi cursed under his breath, shifted the direction of his escape light, and detoured dozens of li.

"Benefactor, please halt!"

The monk called out, "I am Fa Ming, sent here on my teacher's orders, to request that the benefactor come to Spirit Mountain to listen to the Buddhist Law!"

Zhou Yi completely ignored the monk's words and continued flying east. However, he ran into an invisible wall and, having no other choice, turned back to ask.

"Great Master, who is your teacher?"

"I am a disciple under Arhat Yin Guang!"

Fa Ming said, "My master was preaching in Da Heng Capital and returned to Spirit Mountain, saying that the benefactor has a destined connection with Buddha. He has been waiting on the mountain for decades, unable to meet you, so he sent me to invite you."

"So it's Senior Yin Guang..."

Zhou Yi reached out with his Divine Sense to probe in all directions, vaguely perceiving a Buddhist light revolving, having already sealed off the void, and said coldly, "Is this how the esteemed Buddhist monks invite people?"

"Benefactor is indeed a remarkable person!"

Fa Ming spoke, "The legend says you have no concern for face and have cultivated the unmatched Great Five Elements Immortal Technique. If I did not employ some methods, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to invite you..."

Before he could finish his words, a crack appeared in the void, and the five-colored escape light darted into it.

A few breaths later, it emerged a hundred zhang away, already beyond the range of the Formation's seal. Zhou Yi spat out the Nine Heavens Mystic Shuttle, and after infusing it with mana, the Artifact Spirit manifested.

The great wind bird flapped its four wings and swayed its six tails, whisking Zhou Yi away, disappearing into the horizon in an instant.

"Amitābha Buddha!"

Fa Ming watched, dumbfounded, and involuntarily declared a Buddhist chant, having only heard that this fellow would rather abandon his innate talent than not cultivate Immortal Techniques. He had not expected him to be so well-versed in such numerous mysterious Escape Skills, even able to flee from the Buddha light restriction set up by an Arhat.

"Everything in the world cannot escape from cause and effect, why does the benefactor seek troubles for himself..."

Fa Ming shook his head slightly and turned into Buddhist light, disappearing without a trace.

As for Zhou Yi,

Immediately after the Void Shield Technique evaded the Buddhist Law's ban, he burned his life-span Qi-Blood and stacked the Great Five Elements escape light with the Innate divine wind, fleeing back to the Heavenly Mountain without stopping.

He arrived at the Mystic Iron temple in a state of panic and cried out loudly.

"Master, save me!"
