Chapter 1277

Are all the techniques I have learned simply the original forms of those techniques?

The words of Immortal Jiu Chong made Lu Yang more certain of his speculation.

"What were the Samadhi True Fire, Shrinking Land to an Inch, and Measuring the Sky and Earth like in ancient times?" Lu Yang asked.

Immortal Jiu Chong was bewildered: "What what like?"

"I mean, were these techniques in ancient times different from the ones now?"

Immortal Jiu Chong found Lu Yang's question rather amusing, but seeing everyone's reaction, it didn't seem like a joke, so he dared not easily draw a conclusion.

"It's hard to say; records of ancient times are too scarce. What we now know of ancient history is what I have carefully discerned from the legends passed down by various tribes, separating truth from exaggeration."

Moreover, most legends are difficult to verify as true or false, such as the legend left by the now-extinct Kuafu tribe,

which says that the Kuafu tribe were all giants, ordinary clothing could not cover their bodies, so they researched a technique to make ordinary clothes enlarge, such as Xiangxing Quan and Fa Tian Xiang Di sharing the same origin, etc.

"Ah, I see. Thank you for your guidance, senior." Lu Yang clasped his hands in thanks.

Immortal Jiu Chong waved his hand: "These are just baseless rumors; I often used to joke about them with Ying Tian and the others, but they weren't interested."

"Since Little Friend Lu has emerged from seclusion, and the Immortal has also arrived here, does that mean the seal can be broken?"

Immortal Jiu Chong was eager to try; for this day he had made many preparations, promising to be more splendid than the heavenly and earthly phenomena of transcending the tribulation to become an immortal.

The Immortal was about to say yes, but Lu Yang interjected: "We still have some matters to confirm,

After confirmation, may the Immortal and the four seniors gather at the palace?"

"That works."

Seeing this, Immortal Jiu Chong no longer argued with these illiterates from the Tai Xue Academy about who was the leader of the Four Ancient Immortals, and went to the palace to wait for everyone.

After Immortal Jiu Chong left, the Immortal was puzzled: "What else do we have to do?"

"Immortal, you taught me the 'Divine Foresight' technique, which you learned from the Senior of Time, right? I would like to ask the Senior of Time how this technique came about."

According to Xia Di's words, the Senior of Time is currently at the headquarters of the Landing Gold Money Merchant Guild.

Everyone left the Tai Xue Academy and came to the headquarters of the Landing Gold Money Merchant Guild.

Besides Miss Miss Miss Miss Miss Yun Zhi, everyone was visiting the merchant guild headquarters for the first time; as expected of the number one merchant guild in the world, it was extravagant, with two Pixiu carved from spirit stones guarding the entrance, the ground paved with red warm jade, warm in winter and cool in summer,

the entire complex built upon a great Tranquil Mind Formation, which not only aids cultivation but more importantly keeps people calm, and each floor has Harmonious Body stage cultivators stationed year-round to protect the headquarters completely.

Those coming and going are either wealthy merchants worth millions, or cultivators at the Spirit Transformation stage or above.

"Old Meng, have you never been here before?" Lu Yang noticed Meng Jingzhou also looking around, just like himself, as if he were new here.

"Never been here; when my family comes to the merchant guild headquarters, it's to discuss business, they can't possibly bring me along,

After I started cultivating, I haven't returned to the imperial city several times; when I am in the imperial city, I go home, so there's no need to come here."

"That is also true."

Yun Mengmeng had a bland expression: "This is the headquarters of the number one merchant guild in the world? It doesn't feel as good as our Tianmen Peak."

She had long heard people say the Landing Gold Money Merchant Guild headquarters possesses all the wealth in the world, and how luxurious it is; now seeing it, it's just like this.

The things here are not as valuable as those of our Tianmen Peak, and the people here are not as highly cultivated as those of our Tianmen Peak.

"Where is the Senior of Time?"

"Probably on the top floor." Miss Miss Miss Miss Miss Yun Zhi said, roughly guessing why the Senior of Time would appear here,

and went straight upstairs, with everyone following.

Normally, outsiders are not allowed to enter the upper floors of the headquarters, but Miss Miss Miss Miss Miss Yun Zhi's aloof aura, keeping people away by a thousand miles, is so strong that those trying to stop her are frightened into not moving.

An attendant with great courage wanted to dissuade, but was held back by the supervisor.

"This is Miss Miss Miss Miss Miss Yun Zhi, no need to stop her."

"Miss Miss Miss Miss Miss Yun Zhi?" The attendant was unfamiliar with this name.

"Miss Miss Miss Miss Miss Yun Zhi is the eldest senior sister of the Wen Dao Sect, and also an important client of our merchant guild; the guild president specially instructed that she may freely enter and exit the merchant guild headquarters, and must not be stopped."

"Can it really be like that?"

"It's normal you don't know; she hasn't come here for over a hundred years."

Miss Miss Miss Miss Miss Yun Zhi led everyone to the guild president's room at the end of the top floor.

Before she could knock, the door opened automatically, and the Senior of Time sat in the guild president's seat giving a lecture, with two students seated before her.

One of the students Lu Yang recognized was the King of Thieves.

The other student was an old man with only one leg, presumably the Ancestor of Thieves.

Besides Miss Miss Miss Miss Miss Yun Zhi, everyone was puzzled as to why the two founders of the Thieves' Gate would be in the merchant guild headquarters.

Upon seeing Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou, the King of Thieves recalled the terrifying experience in Zhongshan Jun and involuntarily trembled.

"Are you giving a lecture, senior?" Miss Miss Miss Miss Miss Yun Zhi asked.

The Senior of Time stood up and chuckled: "In cultivation, there is some karmic connection, and I am just casually lecturing them.

Alright, I have some matters here; you may go first."

The King of Thieves and the Ancestor of Thieves bowed: "Yes."

They have condensed the embryonic form of the Speed Dao Fruit; the superior Dao Fruit is the Time Dao Fruit, and knowing that the Senior of Time has appeared in the imperial city, they earnestly requested her to impart the Dao.

Miss Miss Miss Miss Miss Yun Zhi nodded, she also thought so; the Senior of Time appearing in the merchant guild headquarters must be related to the King of Thieves and the Ancestor of Thieves.

"Little Friend Lu has emerged from seclusion? You seem to have gained much; is it for breaking the world's seal?"

Lu Yang clasped his hands: "Previously, thank you, Senior of Time, for imparting the Dao; this time I come, first to break the seal, and second, there is something I do not understand, I beg the senior to clarify."

"Oh? What matter?"

"Senior imparted to the Immortal a divine ability called Divine Foresight; is this a technique you created yourself?"

"Rather than saying it is a self-created technique, it is more like a technique I was born knowing."

"Born knowing?" Everyone was startled, even the Immortal was no exception; she had thought this was the fruit of the Senior of Time's comprehension of the Time Dao Fruit.

"It is similar to the bloodline divine abilities of the demon race."

"You also know that my true form is the Jianmu, and after gaining spiritual awareness, I vaguely felt that I would master a certain technique. As my spiritual awareness gradually improved, this technique became clearer. After trying to use it, I found I could see future events, so I named this technique 'Foreknowledge of the Future'."

The answer of the Immortal of Ages surprised Lu Yang; he had thought he learned this technique from somewhere.

Since it is innate, there is no question of misunderstanding.

But if that is the case, why would I be able to use the 'Foreknowledge of the Future' that can read the timeline?

Suddenly, Lu Yang had a flash of inspiration and recalled something: "By the way, senior, you said that the Jianmu once suffered a great calamity, was severed at the waist, and lost all vitality. Did you grow the new Jianmu from the old Jianmu?"

"Not bad."

"Do you know what kind of calamity it was?"

The Immortal of Ages shook her head: "I don't know. At that time, I had not yet gained spiritual awareness; I merely made a guess based on my physical condition after gaining spiritual awareness."

Lu Yang frowned. Innate foreknowledge of the future, the old Jianmu being severed at the waist, and his own use of a foreknowledge of the future with completely different effects.

Is there any connection between these three?

Just as Lu Yang was pondering, a pair of eyes gazed at him gloomily, but no one noticed.
