Chapter 1344: Chapter 1343: Meng Semi-Immortal

After a noisy fuss, the matter finally settled down with Fairy Eternity sternly warning Yun Mengmeng not to call her that way.

"Why shouldn’t I..." Yun Mengmeng didn’t understand; she felt that she hadn’t called her incorrectly.

"And don’t ask why either!" Fairy Eternity said fiercely.

Fairy Eternity felt that nothing had gone right since she left the Peach Blossom Secret Realm, with Xia He and Bai Shuang flirting and competing for Little Yang’s attention, followed by Yun Mengmeng calling her ’big mom’.

It must have been Miss Yun, that naughty girl, secretly casting minor curses on her, causing her such misfortune.

"Let’s go, time to settle the score with Miss Yun!"

Fairy Eternity spoke angrily, dragging Lu Yang off to find Yun Zhi.

Yun Zhi had already heard the noise when Lu Yang arrived; it would have been strange if she hadn’t heard such a commotion.

"Miss Yun, not even a welcome for our return!" Fairy Eternity stormed into the Yun Zhi Cave Mansion with what she thought was a formidable gait that was actually unrecognizable to even her closest relations.

Yun Zhi’s eyes twitched. She thought that her junior brother’s visit home could be extended a bit, perhaps for another ten or eight years.

Primarily because Fairy Eternity had teased her too ruthlessly in the Peach Blossom Secret Realm, and she still felt emotional fluctuations upon seeing Fairy Eternity.

"Big mom..."

"You’re not allowed to call me that either!" Fairy Eternity jumped in anger; this wasn’t like the time when she controlled Yun Zhi in the Peach Blossom Secret Realm. Now, she’d get irritated with anyone who called her that.

"Eldest Senior Sister, please come to the Spiritual Space for a moment," Lu Yang said.

Yun Zhi’s primordial spirit left her body and entered Lu Yang’s forehead.

"What’s the matter?" Yun Zhi knew that entering the Spiritual Space meant there was something they needed to discuss without letting the mastermind behind the scenes know.

"In fact, we have found the home of Fairy Eternity, the North Star, which is also my home..."

Lu Yang explained everything about discovering Fairy Eternity’s Cave Mansion on Blue Star, how Fairy recovered some of her memories, and their speculations about the mastermind’s realm.

"Is he Transcendence?" Fairy Eternity was very surprised; this was a thorny issue.

"Transcendence, indeed. This would explain most of the matters," Yun Zhi nodded, her expression turning serious. This was a significant discovery as they had underestimated the mastermind’s realm before.

"Omniscience, Transcendence, Harmonization, the three great realms above Immortals. Judging from the results, Transcendence and Harmonization do not interfere with each other, while Omniscience can cause those in the Transcendence realm to fall and those in Harmonization to retain their humanity." Yun Zhi pondered, realizing the extraordinary nature of Omniscience after considering the three realms together, which she hadn’t done before, until her junior brother pointed it out.

"However, it doesn’t affect the overall plan. Continue with the original plan," Yun Zhi said. The realm of Transcendence was indeed powerful, but she firmly believed there is a hierarchy within the three realms, with Harmonization being stronger than Transcendence.

From the methods they used, it appeared so.

To achieve Transcendence, one needed to sever ties with history, conceal oneself, and create endless killings.

Her path of Harmonization, however, didn’t rely on external forces and was detached from worldly matters, and she could reach the Harmonization Realm on her own abilities.

If they were pure Seekers who viewed the realm as everything, they would have already achieved Harmonization.

Although Yun Zhi was a Seeker and passionate about cultivation, that was her hobby.

She had her junior brother, Fairy Eternity, and the Seek Dao Sect... all things she couldn’t bear to lose or forget. Blindly pursuing realms was to neglect the essentials for the sake of trivialities and to confuse priorities.

"Can Fairy Eternity not remember how to break through the All-Knowing Realm?"

Fairy Eternity shook her head decisively: "I don’t remember."

"Since only those who have come into contact with Cause and Effect Dao Fruits can achieve Omniscience, this realm must be related to causality. Junior Brother, you might as well go and see Junior Brother Meng."

"Find Old Meng? Where is he now?"

"Selling divinations on the streets of the Imperial City."

...

"Take a look, the Iron Mouth of the Imperial City—double your money back if the prediction is wrong."

On the streets of the Imperial City, the fortune teller occasionally called out. Behind him stood a conspicuous white flag with the words "Meng Semi-Immortal" written in large characters.

The little chubby boy walked down the street, carrying a basket of freshly baked buns that were glistening with oil. His attire seemed ordinary but was in fact all high-grade defensive magic artifacts.

Little Fatty noticed the fortune-teller, his interest piqued. He found a little stool to sit on, and asked in a very casual tone: "Hey fortune-teller, are your predictions accurate?"

The fortune-teller pointed his thumb back at the gold-lettered sign: "See that? ’Iron-mouthed Fortune-teller of the Imperial City’. Could that be fake?"

"How much?"

The fortune-teller sized up Little Fatty: "Seeing as you haven’t started your cultivation, a single low-grade Spirit Stone will do."

Little Fatty opened his cloth pouch, revealing just a few pitiable low-grade Spirit Stones, and hesitantly took one out.

𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

As the grandson of the Minister of Justice, he was raised with strict discipline and had very little pocket money.

"Here, you better make an accurate prediction."

The fortune-teller accepted the Spirit Stone: "So, what do you want me to predict?"

"Can you predict the final exam questions for my Sacrificial Officer teacher?" Little Fatty’s eyes gleamed with the idea that if he scored well on the final exam, his allowance might increase.

The fortune-teller silently returned two Spirit Stones to Little Fatty; this question was beyond his abilities.

"Before you go, let me give you a warning. You may face a disaster of bloodshed in the near future."

Little Fatty didn’t buy this at all, recognizing it as a scam to make money.

After Little Fatty left, the fortune-teller called over the housekeeper hiding nearby: "Go tell Master Xu, the Minister of Justice, that his grandson is on the streets asking fortune-tellers about final exam questions."

"Yes, sir."

Soon another customer sat down. It was the fortune-teller’s good friend: "Meng the Semi-Immortal, you can’t figure out anything and still you do fortune-telling?"

Meng the Semi-Immortal snorted coldly: "What does that brat know? I specialize in predicting marriage fortunes."

"Back from your hometown?" Meng Jingzhou noticed that Lu Yang appeared lively, probably having enjoyed himself there, perhaps even playing the saint in front of others every day.

"Why the heck are you setting up a stall and playing the charlatan?"

Meng Jingzhou glared: "What charlatan? Choose your words. This is a legitimate business!"

"Isn’t fortune-telling the business of the Heavenly Strategy Sect? Does the Heavenly Strategy Sect owe the Meng Family so much money that they taught you their specialty as a debt repayment?"

"You don’t understand." Meng Jingzhou pointed at the flag behind him, "See these four characters? I am now a Semi-Immortal!"

"You’ve really become a Semi-Immortal? What kind of Dao Fruit Outline have you formed?"

Meng Jingzhou smiled smugly: "The Outline of the Cause and Effect Dao Fruit. Do you think I’m just setting up a stall for fun? I’m cultivating the Outline of the Dao Fruit through fortune-telling!"

The Cause and Effect Dao Fruit Outline, a Dao Fruit Outline once possessed by the second Imperial Teacher of Great Yu, and Guan Shanhai knows the key to its formation.

Naturally, Meng Jingzhou also has a talent for this. He mastered the Causality Divine Ability sooner than Lu Yang, with the Single Curse Fist being an example.

"Right now, I’m mainly focusing on cultivating the marriage fortunes," Meng Jingzhou said.

"But I’ve encountered a little problem."

"What problem?"

"I can only predict marriage fortunes for others, not for myself." This baffled Meng Jingzhou quite a bit.

"...Is it possible that you have no marriage fortune in this lifetime?"

"Are you joking? What status do I hold, how can I have no marriage fortune? Old Lu, you’re just jealous because I have the Outline of the Cause and Effect Dao Fruit. Don’t believe me? I’ll show you."

"How will you show me?"

"Let’s look at your causality."

"Oh? Let’s try it then." Lu Yang became interested, now understanding why Eldest Senior Sister suggested he find Old Meng.

Meng Jingzhou put on a pose, activated the Outline of the Cause and Effect Dao Fruit, and mana converged in his eyes as he could see all causality in the world.

"Causality, appear!"

He suddenly opened his eyes, caught a glimpse of the dazzling and dense causality around Lu Yang, and screamed in pain.

"Ah, my eyes!"
