Chapter 472: Impending Disaster

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Five days later, An Lin bade farewell to Da Bai with a heartfelt expression. “Da Bai, I’ll wait for you on the outside.”

The university enforcement team members bade farewell to An Lin with tears flowing down their faces. They had been tortured to the brink of insanity by the terrifyingly alluring scent wafting from his detention room every day. They could only pray to their lucky stars that An Lin could be a good law-abiding citizen who would never come back!

An Lin walked out of the detention facility and was a little disappointed to find that Xu Xiaolan hadn’t come to pick him up.

He was instead greeted by the sight of a cute little dog, wait! No, it was Little Lang.

The snowy white wolf wagged his tail with his big, watery eyes wide open while waiting obediently for An Lin.

“Welcome back, Master! Even though you failed in your glorious endeavor, Little Lang is still willing to follow in your footsteps and lay his life down at a moment’s notice for Master!” The White Scale Wolf God announced with a fawning expression.

An Lin: “…”

Is Little Lang cultivating in the way of flattery?

An Lin returned to his dorm to find an unexpected guest waiting outside his door for him.

“Hey there! Student An Lin, I knew you would be back today, so I’ve been waiting for you here.” A handsome man with a refreshing disposition was waving to An Lin with a smile.

“Teacher Ming Yuan!” An Lin exclaimed in surprise before a pleasantly surprised smile appeared on his face. “You broke through to Return to Void Stage?”

“Haha, it’s all thanks to Student An Lin that I was able to make the breakthrough.” Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan smiled lightly with a calm expression.

“I can’t take credit for this; you were able to make the breakthrough because of your extraordinary aptitude.” An Lin waved his hand.

He then sat down across from Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan before pulling out a steamer full of stuffed buns from his storage ring.

“No… it was all thanks to you… From a more profound perspective, this was all fate!” Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan picked up a stuffed bun and took a bite before his whole body trembled while an expression of shock surfaced on his face. “I can tell that I have an affinity with these stuffed buns…”

An Lin: “… Then feel free to eat some more!”

Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan quickly cleaned out a whole steamer full of stuffed buns before getting down to business.

“I told you prior to making my breakthrough that I would give you a present should I break through to Return to Void Stage. I am a man who delivers on my promises, so I must ask you to accept this bead.” Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan presented a white bead to An Lin.

“This is…” An Lin couldn’t detect any clear energy fluctuations from the bead, so this was clearly a special item that wasn’t a spirit tool or immortal tool.

“This is something I crafted after condensing my Dao of fortune-telling. I named it the Ming Yuan Bead. You can inject your vital energy within the bead and it will be able to tell you your fortune within the next ten days,” Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan explained.

An Lin’s interest was immediately piqued. This was quite a useful item.

“This bead can only be used once per day. It drains a lot of vital energy, so you must be cautious when you use it!” Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan injected his vital energy into the Ming Yuan Bead.

The Ming Yuan Bead then began to glow yellow.

“The colors represent your fortune, yellow represents neutral fortune, green represents good luck, and red represents terrible luck. You have a go too.” Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan passed the Ming Yuan Bead to An Lin as he spoke.

An Lin accepted the bead with a smile. “Red, yellow, and green? It feels like a traffic light.”

Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan chuckled in response. “Well, actually, I really did draw inspiration from the traffic lights of the mortal world!”

An Lin: “…”

An Lin injected his energy into the Ming Yuan Bead and an extremely powerful suction force began to draw more of his energy into the bead. A ripple then began to radiate outward from the bead before merging into heaven and earth.

The Ming Yuan Bead began to glow with a purple light!

Weren’t there only three colors?

An Lin blinked with a confused expression. “Teacher, what does purple mean?”

Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan took a deep breath and his expression suddenly became sympathetic as he turned his gaze on An Lin. “This is just an extremely deep shade of red…”

An Lin: “…”

“Does… does that mean I’m screwed?” An Lin suddenly felt a little cold.

“It’s ok, Student An Lin, fate isn’t something that’s set in stone. You can change your own future!” Celestial Immortal said in a solemn tone.

“How?” An Lin asked hurriedly.

Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan fell silent for a moment before replying, “That’s a little complicated to elaborate on. Let me give you an example; say you’re destined to die tomorrow.”

“Can we use another example?” An Lin grimaced.

“Alright, then let’s say you’re destined to die tomorrow.” Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan amended.

An Lin: “…”

“Let’s say there is a gargantuan meteorite that is going to descend upon the entire United University of Cultivation and destroy the entire floating continent, leaving no one alive. In that case, it doesn’t matter if you work hard and cultivate in the days leading up to the meteor strike, or if you ditch classes and stay in your dorm, or if you hide somewhere within the university that you think is safe. Regardless of what you do, you will inevitably die!

“This is the inertia of the flow of fate. When death becomes the ultimate point where everything converges, nothing you do can change the result as all your actions will lead you to the same, inevitable result.

“If you want to escape this inevitable result, you have to make a drastic change in order to completely break the shackles of fate.

“For example, if you’re very conservative and you are planning to attend class, but you suddenly decide to go for a holiday to the East Sea, and you go immediately without telling anyone, thereby completely acting against your conservative personality. In that case, the drastic change would have allowed you to escape your original fate as you manage to avoid the meteor strike.

“Or perhaps you suddenly progress drastically in your cultivation base from Soul Formation Stage to Dao Integration Stage, you would then be able to survive the meteor strike…

“The more drastic and unreasonable the change you make, the more likely it is to change your fate!”

An Lin nodded as he took in Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan’s words.

For a fortune like his, which was red to the extent of becoming purple, he would probably need to make an extremely extravagant change to avoid his original fate…

“Do your best, Student An Lin! You are the most unpredictable person I’ve ever met, I’m sure you’ll be able to escape your fate!” Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan suddenly grabbed An Lin’s hands and offered words of encouragement.

An Lin nodded. “Don’t worry, I’ll go to the Moon Palace right away.”

“What… what are you planning to do?” Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan stared at An Lin in shock.

“Hehe, Chang’e is an invincible being at the Moon Palace, I’ll just go there to hide for ten days and she’ll protect me from any ill fate I might encounter!” An Lin replied.

Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan: “…”

Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan fell silent.

An Lin’s plan sounded like it was feasible, but he couldn’t help but feel that there was something wrong.

“Take care of yourself then, Student An Lin.” Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan stood up and joined his hands in a farewell salute.

An Lin stood up to accompany Celestial Immortal Ming Yuan to the door before returning to his dorm.

He paused for a moment before bringing out his Vermilion Bird Mirror. “Mirror mirror in my hand, please tell me my fortune for the next few days…”

“Master, I’m a mirror knowledgeable in events of the present and past, I don’t know how to tell fortunes,” the Vermilion Bird Mirror replied in a disdainful voice.

“Sigh… I heard that Chang’e’s strength is amplified in the Moon Palace, can you tell me how powerful Chang’e is when she is at the Moon Palace?” An Lin asked.

“With the power of the moon to enhance her strength, she would have no fear of even Dao Integration Stage mighty figures,” the Vermilion Bird Mirror replied.

An Lin nodded with satisfaction. “Sigh, I haven’t seen Sister Chang’e and Yue Tu for a long time, I think it’s time for me to pay them a visit!”

Vermilion Bird Mirror: “…”
