Four Immortals' Analysis
Why didn't we resurrect immortals in the future?
When Ying Tianxian asked this question, the fairyland fell silent, and the four immortals remained silent.
Yes, that's the biggest problem. If others can't resurrect the Immortal Fairy, can't any one of them just resurrect her?
It's just a matter of saying a name; if they want to say it, who can stop them?
"Not just immortals, but all four of us might be in trouble!" Nine Heavens Immortal said coldly, this was the only possibility.
Although the previous question has been answered, an even bigger problem lies before the Four Immortals.
What exactly happened that even the Five Immortals of High Antiquity are in trouble?
"Could it be that the four of us are all gone too?" Qilin Immortal suddenly said, a chill running down his spine.
After all, this is a possibility. Even the Immortal Fairy perished, so theoretically, it's feasible for the four of them to be eliminated.
"You're talking about the worst-case scenario, but that's unlikely," Fairy Time shook her head in analysis.
"The fact that the Immortal was assassinated means that the opponent might be weaker than the Immortal, or stronger, but only by a limited margin, not by an overwhelming margin. Under these circumstances, as long as the four of us unite, the person in the shadows probably won't kill all four of us."
"By the way, Suiyue, since you said that the other party used the Dao Fruit to sever our connection with the future, could you confirm exactly how far into the future they severed our connection?"
Fairy Time frowned. "We can try, but the chances of success are slim. Wait a moment."
The Immortal of Time activated the Dao Fruit of Time once more, his chaotic aura surging and surging. His true form completely transcended time and space, looking down upon the entire space-time continuum and discovering a clear future without any barriers or obstacles.
"How about it?"
"Just as I predicted, it won't work. The future is all too clear."
"Where's the partition you mentioned?"
The Immortal of Time looked at the Immortal of Qilin as if he were an idiot. "You never listen to my lectures during our usual gatherings and discussions."
Qilin Immortal was furious. He had been tricked twice by Time Immortal using the Time Dao Fruit, so he was no longer afraid of Time Immortal's methods. Did he really think he couldn't beat him?
Although the Immortal of Time mocked the Immortal of Qilin, he still said, "The future is uncertain. The future I see is only the most likely one. The closer the future is to the present, the higher the probability; the farther away it is, the lower the probability."
"Let's assume the future I see is 'Future A,' the most likely future where the immortals haven't been assassinated."
"The one who was assassinated by the Immortal was 'Future B'. When I was talking to the Immortal just now, I had the Dao Fruit of Time establish a connection with Future B. The so-called severance only severed my connection with Future B, not Future A, Future C, or Future D."
"Does that mean immortals aren't necessarily assassinated?"
"No, the future is a straight line, it won't fork. The immortals will definitely be assassinated, but from the perspective of the Dao Fruit of Time, this possibility is very low and cannot be observed."
"Only when I cultivate the Dao Fruit of Time to the point where I can observe all the future will I discover the point in time that was interrupted."
The path of the Time Immortals was not feasible, but the immortals were not discouraged and continued to analyze the situation.
"Only immortals can harm other immortals. To assassinate an immortal means the other party is an immortal. Now, besides the five of us, are there any other immortals?"
The Nine-Headed Immortal is the most qualified to speak on this matter, "According to my research, I was the first to become an immortal, followed by the four of us in turn. The Immortal was last; there was no sixth immortal."
"So, there are two possibilities for the assassin who killed the immortal." Ying Tianxian held up two fingers.
"One possibility is that someone in the future will become an immortal, and possess extremely high talent."
"Another possibility is that there aren't just five immortals like us now, but a sixth immortal!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned.
"This is impossible! The phenomena of becoming an immortal are terrifying. How could the sixth person becoming an immortal be hidden!" Everyone has experienced the tribulation of becoming an immortal. It is a cataclysmic calamity that destroys the world. Even a blind person can see the existence of the calamity. It is absolutely impossible to hide it.
"The tribulation of becoming an immortal cannot be hidden, but if the opponent has attained a Dao Fruit of cause and effect or a Dao Fruit of destiny, what's wrong with using the power of the Dao Fruit to conceal one's own existence!"
By concealing and forgetting oneself, one can also forget the terrifying tribulation to become an immortal that occurred before.
Immortals who govern cause and effect and the Dao cannot rise above the level of immortals, but that does not mean they cannot become immortals.
"This explains what the Immortal of Time meant by 'severance'—using the Dao Fruit of Cause and Effect to sever the cause and effect between the present and the future."
"Or perhaps the Destiny Fruit severed Huang Doudou's fate of survival, changing her from life to death. If we know too much about the future, Huang Doudou's fate of death will be affected, which is why the severance occurred, preventing us from knowing too much!"
"At the very least, there are other Dao fruits that we don't understand; the possibilities are numerous."
They actually don't understand much about cause and effect, or destiny and its consequences; these are all theoretical concepts.
Without condensing a complete Dao Fruit, no one knows its exact power.
For example, in the early stages of the Immortal Dao Fruit, Huang Doudou was merely using the nascent form of the Immortal Dao Fruit to complete his own state, or darting around inside the statue.
Who could have imagined that after Huang Doudou achieved her immortal Dao fruit, she could self-destruct at any time and be resurrected by someone who uttered her name?
"Or there might be a third possibility for the assassin, but I can't think of any right now." Ying Tianxian shrugged, realizing that it was no easy feat to come up with two possibilities in such a short time.
The other three immortals also shook their heads, unable to think of a third possibility for the time being.
"Should we tell the Immortal about this?" Qilin Immortal asked, while Yingtian Immortal and Suiyue Immortal were both considering the feasibility.
"Absolutely not!" Nine Immortals was the first to stand up and stop it.
"Given his immortal nature, knowing he'd be assassinated in the future, he might just say, 'If I commit suicide first, I won't be assassinated,' and then kill himself on the spot, waiting to be resurrected in the future!"
"She might do something else amazing!"
Qilin Immortal: "..."
Ying Tianxian: "..."
Timeless Immortal: "..."
It definitely seems to be Huang Doudou's style.
Ying Tianxian stretched and said, "Let's prepare slowly. I don't think anything will happen to the Immortals anytime soon. You came out under the pretext of being a referee, so it's time for you to go back. Otherwise, the Immortals will get suspicious and come looking for us, which would be terrible."
Thinking of the meals cooked by his two wives, the Immortal Fairy and the Qilin Fairy, the Time Immortal even felt like he wanted to die with them.
"Fine, what can I do? I'm just unlucky." Time Fairy sighed, resignedly dragging her body back to Polaris.
"By the way, it will probably be a hundred years after the three of you finish your game of chess. That will definitely create a historical reflection. Delete the part of the reflection where we see the future immortal. If the assassin of the immortal sees the historical reflection, wouldn't that expose the fact that the future immortal can be resurrected?"
"You're still the most cunning and treacherous one," Ying Tianxian exclaimed, giving a thumbs-up.
"That's called meticulous calculation!" the Time Immortal roared in fury.
