Chapter 625: Twin River
The two Great Supremes knelt on the ground, silent, but the more they listened, the more wrong it felt.
Does the Ancient Heavenly Court understand the law this well?
And shouldn't they be addressing her as "Sect Leader"? Why call her "Senior Sister"?
Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou were using their true faces. As noble Half-Immortals, they mainly kept track of major factions that could pose a threat to them today; a mere Nascent Soul stage cultivator naturally wouldn't catch their eye, let alone the fact that Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou were only famous back when they were in the mere Golden Core stage.
After listening to Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou's back-and-forth explanations, Senior Sister confirmed that the battle between the two Great Supremes indeed had nothing to do with her two Junior Brothers.
"Little Junior Brother, you just mentioned that these two Supremes wanted to steal an ancient artifact. May I ask what they were trying to steal?"
"Hehe, the Second-in-Command doesn't know much about this. Let this Immortal explain." The Immortal Fairy emerged from Lu Yang's body.
The two Great Supremes looked at the Immortal Fairy in shock and uncertainty; none of them had noticed that someone was living inside Lu Yang's body!
This was impossible!
Even if a Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator were living in Lu Yang's body, they wouldn't have escaped their discerning eyes!
Is this woman a Half-Immortal?
"Remember the Fuling sisters those two little ones mentioned?"
Senior Sister nodded; the experiences of those two sisters were quite bizarre.
"Actually, these two sisters weren't born of their parents, but were born only after their mother drank water from the Twin River."
"What is the Twin River?" Senior Sister had never heard of it.
"This brings us to the greatness of this Immortal."
"Back in the ancient times, this Immortal had countless believers. Some prayed to me for children, and others prayed for twins. I readily agreed, using my supreme magic power to create the Child-Mother River and the Twin River."
"Anyone who drinks water from the Child-Mother River will become pregnant."
"Anyone who drinks water from the Twin River will give birth to twins."
The Nightmare Supreme widened his eyes in disbelief, looking at the Immortal Fairy in horror, his voice trembling: "You... no, are you the Ying Tian Immortal?!"
He had come here to find the Twin River, never expecting the real owner to be right here!
The legendary Ying Tian Immortal is actually a woman!
Lu Yang: "..."
Needless to say, this must be another case of historical revisionism where the Immortal Fairy's belongings were attributed to the Ying Tian Immortal.
Senior Sister was stunned after hearing this, recalling certain things. She looked at the Immortal Fairy with a strange expression, her feelings complex. She couldn't believe what she had just heard, and her tone was different from usual.
"You mean... you created the Child-Mother River, and anyone who drinks its water will become pregnant?"
The Immortal Fairy was naive by nature and didn't notice Senior Sister's oddity, nodding sincerely: "Yes, what's wrong with that?"
"Then where is the Child-Mother River now?"
The Immortal Fairy shook her head: "I don't know. When the Ying Tian Immortal and the others reshaped the continent, the terrain changed, and I don't know where they moved the Child-Mother River."
Senior Sister's expression grew increasingly strange. She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately didn't.
Lu Yang noticed the change in Senior Sister's expression. Since joining the sect, Senior Sister had always maintained a look of neither joy nor sorrow; Lu Yang had never seen her expression change so dramatically.
Lu Yang didn't dare to ask what Senior Sister was thinking.
"Although we can't find the Child-Mother River, we can find the Twin River. I had the Second-in-Command secretly pull two hairs from those two little girls, and I can trace the source through their hair to find the Twin River."
Lu Yang spread his hands, two hairs lying in his palm.
The Immortal Fairy pinched an obscure and difficult ancient seal, a seal only she knew, which none of the four Ancient Immortals could perform.
The moment the seal touched the two hairs, they turned into a wisp of curling blue smoke, drifting into the distance.
"Let's go, follow this smoke and we'll find the Twin River!" The Immortal Fairy waved her hand and rushed to the front, beckoning everyone to follow.
Everyone followed.
The blue smoke drifted for half a day, slowing down after passing a temple.
As Lu Yang passed by, he saw the temple's name: Gu Lin Temple.
Gu Lin Temple was nestled at the foot of a mountain, with endless mountains behind it.
The blue smoke flew over a dozen peaks, lingering in a maple forest.
"Why did it stop?"
The Immortal Fairy explained: "The Twin River is in a secret realm. The smoke cannot reach the secret realm directly; we need to find the entrance."
"Judging by the smoke's circulation, the secret realm should be here."
The Immortal Fairy walked forward two steps, pointing at an inconspicuous large rock in the maple forest.
The blue smoke kept circling nearby, and the center of the circle was this giant rock.
Senior Sister flicked her finger, injecting a wisp of spiritual power into the rock, and the smoother side of the rock turned into a black vortex.
"This is it."
Senior Sister didn't hesitate, throwing the two Half-Immortals into the vortex before stepping in herself. The Immortal Fairy, Lu Yang, and Meng Jingzhou entered one after another.
As everyone entered, the black vortex disappeared, and the giant rock returned to its original appearance; no one could tell that the Immortal-made Twin River could be found through it.
"Such rich spiritual energy!"
Lu Yang was surprised. He stepped onto the lawn; a wide river meandered, its source unknown. The river surface radiated abundant spiritual energy, irrigating this secret realm. The vegetation by the river was lush—ancient trees, shrubs, green grass... all were spiritual plants that had gone extinct in the present day.
Moreover, these spiritual plants grew in pairs, and due to the Twin River's irrigation, their medicinal efficacy was far stronger than the original.
On the river surface grew the Twin Lotus, which could help people reach the first-grade Golden Core.
The Twin Lotus was originally a product of the Twin River, originally named "Sister Flowers," later renamed by the Ying Tian Immortal.
The two Supremes felt it even more clearly; they sensed the great power contained in the river. This was the purest Dao rhyme; just meditating by the river would be of great help to their condensation of Dao fruits.
"Yes, this is the Twin River created by this Immortal."
The Immortal Fairy pointed at the river happily, saying the environment here was exactly the same as in ancient times, making her very nostalgic.
"I didn't expect it to be so well-preserved." The Immortal Fairy was slightly surprised; this was almost an entire Twin River. It was hard to imagine it being preserved so intact during that battle to reshape the continent.
"Fairy, is that your cave dwelling over there?"
Lu Yang pointed to a stone chamber by the river, with "Immortal Mansion" written in ancient language on it. Judging by the scale, it should only be a part of the Immortal Mansion.
"It really is. But that shouldn't be; this Immortal shouldn't have built an Immortal Mansion by the Twin River."
The Immortal Fairy muttered to herself, then suddenly realized: "I understand, it must have been that girl Qing He who helped me preserve it!"
"It's just that it was too chaotic at the time, and she didn't preserve it all!"
Whether it was the Twin River or the Immortal Mansion, they were all preserved by Qing He at a critical moment.
"Let's see what's inside."
The Immortal Mansion gate was locked tight. The Immortal Fairy used her soul as a key to open it.
The interior of the Immortal Mansion was like time had stopped, spotless, as if the owner hadn't left long ago. Various books were displayed on the bookshelves, their covers brand new.
"This is where this Immortal read books."
Lu Yang noticed a small booklet on the bookshelf that was very conspicuous, titled "Immortal Quotations."
Out of curiosity, he took it down to read. Profound ancient language came into view:
This seat was born in accordance with Heaven!
Those who defy this Immortal, behead!
How dare mortals defy Immortals!
This seat contains powerful strength; do not force this seat to break the seal!
The Immortal Fairy had even thoughtfully noted down who said these words: Ying Tian Immortal, Jiu Chong Immortal, Qilin Immortal, Sui Yue Immortal—the whole group was there.
Lu Yang silently closed the book, put it back in its original place, and pretended he hadn't seen it.
