The Unlucky Immortal Fairy
"Is your name really Huang Doudou?" Lu Yang asked, still somewhat skeptical.
The Immortal Fairy's face hardened. "Junior, how dare a mortal address me by my immortal name? You must address me as the Immortal Fairy!"
"So, Immortal Fairy, your real name is Huang Doudou?"
The Immortal Fairy's face fell. "My parents gave me this name, I can't just change it."
Yun Zhi interrupted their pointless conversation, "Tell me, what have you been doing? You've been away for two months and you've already been entangled with a fairy."
The Immortal Fairy corrected Yun Zhi's grammatical error. "Watch your words! I'm not clinging to him; you're making me sound like a lovesick fool!"
The only response the Immortal Fairy received was Yun Zhi's indifferent gaze. The Immortal Fairy thought for a moment, realizing that she had just been resurrected, her immortal soul was weak, and she knew nothing about the outside world. There was no need to provoke an enemy.
But as a dignified immortal who once dominated the High Antiquity times, I should still maintain my integrity. I should be firm and warn them that I am not someone to be trifled with.
Please feel free to do as you please.
Lu Yang glanced at the honest Immortal Fairy, met his senior sister's indifferent gaze, and honestly recounted his gains over the past month.
"We didn't do anything special. Meng Jingzhou and Man Gu came to me and said there was a tiger demon in the mountains of Yanjiang County that was causing havoc in the area. They said we could get contribution points by killing the tiger demon. The three of us discussed it and thought it was a sure-fire way to make money, so we went."
"The tiger demon was killed without much trouble. When we were taking stock of the supplies, we discovered that the tiger demon had connections with the Demonic Cult. So we followed the clues to find the Demonic Cult and saw if we could kill a few of its members and rid the people of this scourge."
"Later, we heard that the Demonic Cult was recruiting, so we decided to join in and test the waters. Unexpectedly, we were quite lucky, and all three of us got in."
"After we went in, the local leader of the Demonic Sect valued us highly and appointed us as deacons."
"Though we were on the demonic path, our hearts were on the righteous path. During our time with the demonic sect, we discovered, through subtle clues, that the local leader of the demonic sect had secretly set up a reverse lifespan formation to break through the core and form a nascent soul. After a heroic battle and some cunning tricks, we successfully killed him."
"It just so happens that the Demonic Sect sent people to inspect us. They thought the three of us had good foundations and quick minds, so they promoted us to be branch leaders and even sent us to our Ask Dao Sect as undercover agents."
The Immortal Fairy listened from the side and chuckled, "What a stupid demonic sect! They even sent you back as spies. What's the name of this demonic sect? I'll make them laugh when I run into them."
"The Immortal Cult worships you," Lu Yang said.
The immortal fairy's smile froze on her face.
Lu Yang continued, "The Immortal Cult told us that when High Antiquity nameless ancient beings refined stars into continents, the Immortal Immortal saved humanity. As long as you recite the name of the Immortal Immortal along with his name, you can resurrect him and save humanity once again."
"On the way back, the three of us were bored, so we started guessing what the Immortal Immortal's name was. We were worried that if we really resurrected the immortal, things would get messy, so we changed the Immortal Immortal to Immortal Fairy. As you saw, Senior Sister, I brought her back to life."
Yun Zhi hummed in agreement. "The three of you have quite a lot of experience. Successfully entering the Immortal Sect and rising to the rank of leader is indeed a great achievement. The Demonic Sect's selection process has many merits, such as the ability to distinguish between righteous and demonic forces. It is truly remarkable that you were able to enter the Immortal Sect."
"I've also heard about the Immortal Cult's attempt to resurrect the Immortal Immortals, but I didn't know the specific methods. I never expected that you would succeed by accident."
Yun Zhi turned her gaze to the immortal fairy who was frowning in thought, "And you, do you have anything to say?"
The Immortal Fairy shook her head. "I've never heard of any Immortal Cult, nor do I know of any High Antiquity nameless person refining stars, and I don't recall ever saving humanity."
"The era I live in is known as the Golden Age of Destiny, meaning that Heaven has shown mercy and my destiny lies in my own hands. I was born of the human race and attained the Dao Fruit of Immortality during this golden age, becoming an immortal. Due to the special abilities of the Dao Fruit, I am known as the Immortal Immortal."
Yun Zhi explained calmly, "The prosperous era of destiny is what we often refer to as the High Antiquity times."
The Immortal Fairy continued, "Besides me, there were four other people who became immortals at that time. Later, I don't know who attacked me from behind and killed me completely. I then died."
"Just like the Immortal Cult said, as long as I call out our title and immortal name, I can be resurrected. I just don't know why I was mistakenly told that I was an immortal immortal, and I was only resurrected now. I still don't know how long I've been dead."
The Immortal Fairy was also aggrieved. She had just been resurrected and wanted to show off her power in front of the junior and scare him so that he would obey her. However, the other party directly called over his senior sister. And that wasn't all. This senior sister was ridiculously strong and directly suppressed her.
Who can she turn to for justice?
Why did I encounter such a strong opponent right after respawning?
After listening, Yun Zhi analyzed, "It might not be a misrepresentation. It's possible that someone with ulterior motives wants to resurrect you but doesn't want to have any karmic connection with you. So they used the Immortal Sect to call out your title and immortal name, intentionally calling you 'Immortal Immortal.' Once the Immortal Sect tries all the names and finds that it's still wrong, they'll wonder if they've remembered the title incorrectly. In that case, it would be the Immortal Sect resurrecting you and having a karmic connection with you, unrelated to the person behind it all."
The higher a person's level of cultivation, the more they value cause and effect, believing that cause and effect control everything in the Unseen.
At this point, Yun Zhi frowned slightly. It wasn't that the Immortal Sect and the Immortal Fairy had a karmic connection now; Lu Yang had inadvertently taken on this enormous karmic burden.
"As for how long you've been dead," Yun Zhi paused, then asked, "You don't know who refined the stars?"
Her tone was still calm, but Lu Yang detected a hint of seriousness in it, indicating that his senior sister took this matter very seriously.
The Immortal Fairy shook her head, looking completely bewildered. "I don't know. What's going on? When I was alive, everyone lived on stars. Did someone refine the stars into continents?"
Yun Zhi nodded. "Before the Great Xia Dynasty was the Great Yu Dynasty, before the Great Yu Dynasty was the Great Gan Dynasty, and before the Great Gan Dynasty was the so-called 'Golden Age of Mandate,' which we are referring to as the High Antiquity era."
"The Da Gan and Da Yu dynasties both existed for 100,000 years before being overthrown. The Da Xia dynasty also existed for 100,000 years. Some say this is a High Antiquity Curse, that each dynasty can only exist for 100,000 years. After 100,000 years, the dynasty will inevitably collapse, and a new dynasty will rise and establish itself on the ruins."
"At the end of High Antiquity times, immortals refined stars into continents, and the entire world changed its appearance, becoming the Central Continent we know today."
In other words, you've been dead for at least 300,000 years.
The Immortal Fairy exclaimed in surprise, "So long? I should have deposited the Spirit Stone in a bank; how much interest could I have earned?"
Lu Yang: "..."
Fairy, isn't your focus a bit off?
