Chapter 282: The Last Battle Before the Four Ancient Immortals Became Dao

"Did the prisoner confess?" Lu Yang asked subconsciously.

The Decayed Fairy was confused by Lu Yang's question: "How would I know if the prisoner confessed? It must be that the Jiu Chong Immortal was too tired from interrogating the prisoner and needed to eat to refresh himself."

"Let's see what ingredients are left in storage." The Decayed Fairy hummed a light tune, wandered around the kitchen, and finally stopped in front of a pool.

"Taiyi Holy Water?" Miss Yun Zhi softly read out the origin of the water in the pool. It was not an ordinary product, but a rare one that had never appeared even at auctions.

It is said that Taiyi Holy Water has the ability to purify all things and wash the soul. A drop of water can pull a cultivator back from the state of qi deviation.

If Miss Yun Zhi remembered correctly, only a few drops of Taiyi Holy Water remained today, scattered among various major forces, as a foundation, and would not be used easily.

The Profound Heaven Sect once had three drops, all used on those elders who had qi deviation during cultivation. Now the Profound Heaven Sect didn't have a single drop of Taiyi Holy Water.

There was actually a pool of Taiyi Holy Water here.

The water surface was calm, reflecting the Decayed Fairy's exquisite face.

"Why is there a pool of water here?" Lu Yang didn't know what Taiyi Holy Water was, but he was strange why a pool of water would appear in the kitchen.

"A vegetable washing pool. Don't you wash your vegetables when you cook?" The Decayed Fairy showed an expression of 'Lu Yang, you are really unhygienic,' which made Lu Yang's eyes twitch.

Taiyi Holy Water can purify all things, so it can be explained that it is used to wash vegetables... maybe.

The Senior Sister was a bit hesitant, feeling that she was worthy of being an ancient Immortal, quick-witted, and able to find another way.

I saw the Decayed Fairy stretch out her index finger and tap lightly on the water surface, and the calm water surface rippled.

The water surface seemed to be summoned by the order of some kind of existence, separated from the middle, revealing the space under the water.

There were no water droplets or water vapor in the underwater space. Strange power isolated the water pool from the underwater space. If the water pool and the underwater space were seen as a jar, then the water pool was the lid.

The things in the underwater space shocked Lu Yang: unknown but vibrant beast meat, immortal fruits that had long since disappeared in the long river of history, spherical stones that were incredibly regular, flowers spitting out five-colored rays of light... all kinds of items revealed their extraordinary origins.

These were not the key. The most critical question was—

"300,000 years have passed, and these things are preserved so well?!" Lu Yang was surprised. Even if the Tribulation Transcendence stage lived by way of a relay race, 300,000 years would have been several batches of deaths.

Miss Yun Zhi raised her eyebrows. In her perception, the time in this underwater space was completely frozen.

The Decayed Fairy first determined that her treasures were fine, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then said in a tone of showing off: "This is a space created for me by the Sui Yue Immortal!"

"He used the power of the Sui Yue Dao Fruit to completely imprison the time of this space. Whatever it looked like when it was put in, it would look like when it was taken out!"

Lu Yang gasped. Imprisoning local time, the Sui Yue Dao Fruit could actually do such a thing?!

"The Sui Yue Immortal couldn't do this when he first became an Immortal and condensed the Sui Yue Dao Fruit. It was only after my help that he practiced this move. To thank me for taking action, he built a time-stagnant space for me to use."

"Is the Fairy also proficient in the power of time?" Lu Yang recalled the supernatural powers related to time mastered by the Decayed Fairy.

A feigning death technique, which can regulate one's own time and accelerate the degree of corpse decay.

A weather forecast, which can accurately predict future weather.

No matter how you look at it, the Decayed Fairy doesn't look like she has the ability to guide the Sui Yue Immortal.

"The Sui Yue Immortal said that only facing threats can stimulate the power of the Dao Fruit, but for Immortals, there are almost no things that can be called 'threats'."

"So he asked me to cook for him. He wanted to imprison his own time while eating. After practicing for a few days, he succeeded."

Lu Yang: "..."

"Maybe it was because he remembered the experience of being pressed to the ground and beaten by me when he was in the Tribulation Transcendence stage while eating, and felt a sense of 'threat'. The Jiu Chong Immortal taught me that this is called a conditioned reflex."

"Tribulation Transcendence stage?" Miss Yun Zhi heard the keyword and remembered a story she had seen in ancient books, "Does the Fairy know that the four people, Ying Tian Immortal and others, experienced a large-scale battle before they became Immortals, that is, when the four were still in the Tribulation Transcendence stage?"

"The last battle before becoming an Immortal?" Lu Yang was shocked after hearing this. This sounded very story-like, making people have many hot-blooded associations.

Miss Yun Zhi nodded gently, recalling the content in the ancient books: "It is said that before the four ancient Immortals became Dao, they had a decisive battle."

"The Ying Tian Immortal, the Qilin Immortal, and the Jiu Chong Immortal, these three arrogant geniuses joined forces to deal with the Sui Yue Immortal. According to those who watched the battle at that time, during the battle, the Ying Tian Immortal also sternly asked the Sui Yue Immortal 'Who can become an Immortal!'. Facing the Ying Tian Immortal's questioning, the Sui Yue Immortal did not dare to answer, and fell into a disadvantage in his state of mind."

"The world speculated that among the four ancient Immortals, the Sui Yue Immortal's body was Jianmu, which existed for I don't know how many years, and his foundation was terrifyingly rich, making him the most likely to become an Immortal. The three of them joined forces to prevent the Sui Yue Immortal from becoming an Immortal first."

At first, the Decayed Fairy frowned tightly, not remembering any last battle before becoming an Immortal. Hearing the end, she suddenly realized: "Oh, you are talking about this, then you asked the right person, I know this."

"I tell you, the Sui Yue Immortal was always looking up with his nostrils before he became an Immortal, and he looked down on everyone. At that time, we were both in the Tribulation Transcendence stage, and the Sui Yue Immortal asked me, among the many heroes in the world, who can become an Immortal?"

"I asked if the Ying Tian Immortal could do it. He said that the Ying Tian Immortal took his identity too seriously and was a burden on the road to becoming an Immortal."

"I asked if the Qilin Immortal could do it. He said that the Qilin Immortal was a vulgar martial artist, relying on his innate luck, and his cultivation path was too smooth to pass the test of becoming an Immortal."

"I asked if the Jiu Chong Immortal could do it. He said that the Jiu Chong Immortal had mediocre talent. If it weren't for his Immortal body, he would have been defeated by other geniuses long ago. Such a person couldn't become an Immortal."

"I asked if I could do it myself. He said that I was sharp-edged, my momentum was too fierce, although I walked the invincible path, I was too rigid and easy to break, and he also said that my mind was delicate, not in harmony with the natural Dao, and my state of mind was inferior, so it was impossible to become an Immortal."

"I asked him who could become an Immortal. He said that it was a pity that the world was so big, only he could become an Immortal, and it was lonely through the ages."

"At that time, I couldn't hold back my anger and pressed him to the ground and beat him up, and then he became honest and said that I could also become an Immortal."

"Later, I was still angry and felt that beating him once wasn't enough to vent my anger, but I had already beaten him once, so it wouldn't look good to beat him again. I told the Ying Tian Immortal, the Qilin Immortal, and the Jiu Chong Immortal about the conversation."

"Then the three of them joined forces to teach the Sui Yue Immortal a lesson."

"In a one-on-one battle, the Sui Yue Immortal was not afraid of anyone, but in a three-on-one, the Sui Yue Immortal could only be beaten."

"The Ying Tian Immortal asked the Sui Yue Immortal 'Who can become an Immortal', and the Sui Yue Immortal knew he was in the wrong and didn't dare to answer."

Miss Yun Zhi: "..."

So this is the truth of the legendary last battle of the four ancient Immortals before they became Dao?

Lu Yang secretly glanced at the Senior Sister's reaction, thinking to himself, do you know what kind of ancient stories I listen to every day now?
