Who Let Him Cultivate?!

"Should we break off a branch from Time Immortal to craft a zither?" Fairy Eternity suggested, of course, through mental transmission. She didn’t say it out loud—Gan Tian was still unaware of Fairy Eternity’s existence.

Time Immortal’s body was vast, with even a single branch being five or six chi thick.

"Wouldn’t this be disrespectful to Elder Time?" Eldest Senior Sister hesitated.

Fairy Eternity didn’t care at all: "Oh, what’s all this about respect or disrespect? Time Immortal often uses parts of his own body to refine tools."

"Branches and leaves are just like Time Immortal’s hair, using one to refine a tool is nothing."

"He uses parts of his own body to refine tools even when there’s nothing else to do."

When it comes to the best refining materials, there’s nothing better than Time Immortal, the oldest being in existence. What material could possibly compare to his body?

"Immortal Jiuchong also considered using his own body for refining."

"Doesn’t he wield the power of the Yin-Yang Dao Fruit, which represents change? Yin and Yang complement each other, spawning endless creation and shaping fate. He can create life through the power of the Dao Fruit."

"Originally, he wanted to pull out one of his ribs to create life, but then he started to wonder whether the result would be his sibling or his son or daughter, and that troubled him so much that he ultimately gave up on the idea."

Lu Yang: "..."

Are the customs of you ancient folks all so fierce?

"Eh, speaking of which, I might have a way to improve little Meng’s situation," Fairy Eternity mused, suddenly inspired by a spark of ingenuity.

"Improve what?"

"Have you ever heard of reversing Yin and Yang, defying the heavens to change fate?"

Lu Yang had a vague impression—it seemed to be an incredibly powerful Great Divine Skill.

"Right, it’s a Great Divine Skill that can defy the heavens and change fate, but it can only be used on oneself, not on others."

"If little Meng knew this skill, perhaps he could change his Single Body Spirit Root constitution and even possibly improve his luck."

"Fairy, you know this skill?"

"Of course I do. Here, I’ll teach it to both of you. Whether you can learn it depends on your own ability."

Lu Yang couldn’t close his grinning mouth at the prospect of learning such an impressive Divine Ability.

Lu Yang shared Fairy Eternity’s idea with Eldest Senior Sister, who also thought it feasible. The only issue was that the skill was so difficult to learn that it couldn’t be mastered in the Nascent Soul Stage.

"We can try it."

"Senior, tell us how you perform this skill, and we’ll compare notes." Eldest Senior Sister also knew this skill but hadn’t thought it could be used on Meng Jingzhou.

"Okay."

They communicated their knowledge quickly through Spiritual Sense, and after confirming that they both understood the same Divine Ability, Eldest Senior Sister felt reassured.

After Gan Tian entered the Body Integration Realm and went into seclusion to consolidate her realm, only Eldest Senior Sister, Lu Yang, and Meng Jingzhou—who had been carried away by the crowd but later called back by Lu Yang—were left on Sky Gate Mountain.

Upon learning the news, Meng Jingzhou was overjoyed.

Had the heavens finally taken pity, allowing him the chance to turn his luck around and defy destiny? Explore more stories at NovelBin.Côm

Lu Yang spoke earnestly, "If you’re grateful, you can kowtow twice to me, and I’ll accept it on Fairy’s behalf."

"Get lost."

Fairy Eternity floated out from within Lu Yang’s body, her expression serene and peaceful, just like an Immortal imagined in fantasies.

Fairy Eternity, with her fingers poised like an orchid, said leisurely, "I see that you are extraordinarily gifted and will surely achieve great things in the future. Today, I bestow upon you a chance at Immortal fortune. Whether you can seize it depends on your own destiny."

"Meng Jingzhou thanks the Immortal!"

At the peak of Sky Gate Mountain, Eldest Senior Sister did not return to Captive Peak to continue the interrogation but instead observed Fairy Eternity’s teaching process.

"Reversing Yin and Yang can disrupt the order of heaven and earth, make the sun and moon lose their regularity, equatable to reversing right and wrong, blurring black and white. It ranks among the top few incredibly powerful moves even within Great Divine Skills. If you two intend to learn it, be mentally prepared..."

"The key to mastering this move lies in the Spiritual Sense within your heart. To overcome fate, you must first believe in fate..."

"After learning the superficial aspects of Reversing Yin and Yang, you can only transform a part, just enough to change your Pure Yang Spirit Root into a Yin and Yang Spirit Root..."

"When using this move, avoid exerting too much force, or else you will change from a Pure Yang Spirit Root to a Pure Yin Spirit Root..."

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou were incredibly well-behaved, sitting on the ground attentively, eagerly remembering every word Fairy Eternity said.

"In fact, if you wish to learn Reversing Yin and Yang, you have the best reference right before your eyes."

"What is it?" they asked in unison.

Fairy Eternity pointed overhead: "The sun."

"Daytime is yang, nighttime is yin. Whether it’s the interchange of Taiyin and Taiyang from our past or the present variations, they all exemplify Reversing Yin and Yang very well. Unfortunately, few people can comprehend this," Fairy Eternity sighed, as if lamenting the ignorance of ordinary people.

Meng Jingzhou seized the opportunity to flatter: "That’s why they say a predecessor is an Immortal, able to perceive what ordinary people cannot."

"Oh, I haven’t grasped it myself. It was the Time Immortal who told us this," the Fairy responded.

Meng Jingzhou: "..."

It took a full day for Fairy Eternity to clarify the principles of this Great Divine Skill.

"I’ve explained the principles; whether you can comprehend them or not depends on your own fate."

"I suggest that you observe closely during the transformation of the sun and moon. It will help you learn this Divine Ability."

"Yes," they replied in unison.

In the following days, they did nothing but focus on studying, pondering over Fairy Eternity’s method wholeheartedly.

Reversing Yin and Yang, defying destiny, is indeed a Divine Ability powerful enough to rank in the top few, and even with Lu Yang’s talent, he couldn’t learn it in a short time.

On the fifth morning, during the transition of the sun and moon, they looked up at the sky, watching the silver moon that represented the Power of Taiyin lose its original color, draped in a red veil that deepened, completely dyeing the moon red and transforming it into the blazing sun, the symbol of the sun’s power.

At that moment, Lu Yang felt an epiphany, as if a layer of paper in his heart had been pierced through.

He gradually closed his eyes and continued to evolve the magnificent and splendid scenes of the morning and evening transitions of the sun and moon in his mind.

Lu Yang revealed a confident smile.

He had learned it.

He sensed a change in his fate.

Meng Jingzhou scratched his head in frustration; his talent for magic skills was top-notch, but learning such an overpowering Divine Ability was still too difficult.

He turned to ask his good brother, "Lu Yin, have you learned it?"

The confident smile on Lu Yang’s face froze: "…Wait, what did you just call me?"

"Lu Yin. Is there a problem?"

Lu Yang quickly turned to ask Fairy Eternity and Eldest Senior Sister, "What’s happening to me?"

Unlike Meng Jingzhou, Fairy Eternity and Eldest Senior Sister both noticed the change in Lu Yang. A magical force had blessed Lu Yang, changing his name to "Lu Yin," as if he had been born with that name; even the name on his Identity Jade at his waist read "Lu Yin."

Fairy Eternity scratched her head in consternation: "Reversing Yin and Yang, defying heaven to change one’s name?"

"Does this count as having learned it?"
