Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 269

Chapter 269 Meteorites Fall from the Sky

“Feeling better?”

“Feeling better.”

Yu Feng cleaned the blood from his face and walked out of the bun shop.

“Since your rebirth, when has your longest life been?” Jiang Li asked curiously.

“The time I broke through to the Nascent Soul stage before that, I lived for seven years.”

“Break through to the Nascent Soul stage in seven years?” Jiang Li was surprised. He wasn’t surprised that Yu Feng had broken through to the Nascent Soul stage. What was surprising was that Yu Feng only had three spiritual roots and no personal guidance. Seven years was too fast.

Unless he neglected his foundation and recklessly pursued realms.

Yu Feng explained awkwardly, “After all, the higher the realm, the fewer fatal disasters you encounter. I just want to become a powerful person as soon as possible and never be reborn again.”

Each time he was reborn, he tried to change the deaths of his parents, villagers, and friends, but he always failed. Over time, he stopped trying to change and simply avoided things, avoiding them whenever possible. He finally reached the Nascent Soul stage, then suffered an unfortunate accidental injury and started over.

Yu Feng thought he would be trapped in an endless cycle of reincarnation, experiencing death over and over again until the end of time. But Jiang Li’s appearance taught him that there was no need to run away; things could be changed.

He was sincerely grateful to Jiang Li.

The old woman was the Foundation Establishment cultivator who was supposed to hold off the beast tide. Now that the beast tide had vanished, so too had the Foundation Establishment cultivators. The bandits vanished, and the village was saved. Yu Feng’s memory of the future had been drastically altered.

“You can’t do this. If you don’t focus on the fundamentals and rush to break through, you’ll find your cultivation increasingly difficult, and you’ll eventually stop at the Spirit Transformation stage.”

“Isn’t the Spirit Transformation stage strong enough?”

“Guess how many Fusion stage cultivators will harbor ill will towards you with your luck?”

Yu Feng didn’t even think to guess. Even if a Fusion stage cultivator took offense, let alone a few, he’d have to start all over again.

Six months passed, and under Jiang Li’s guidance, Yu Feng’s realm rose rapidly, successfully reaching the Foundation Establishment stage.

During those six months, Yu Feng faced numerous crises and dangers.

For example, if thirsty, one must never drink well water rashly. Monsters inhabit the well, and anyone who attempts to draw water will be devoured by them.

Yu Feng poisoned the well water, killing the monster, then sealed the well mouth, saving the passersby behind him.

Another example: Yu Feng was passing through a forest and sleeping in a tree at night when a Jindan-stage swordsman, awake at night, slayed monsters in the forest and nearly killed Yu Feng.

Seeing Yu Feng nearly die at the hands of his sword, the cultivator offered no apology, but instead, dismissed him as a nuisance, snorted, and left the forest.

“Senior Jiang, is this the direction?”

“Yes.”

Yu Feng was heading to a perilous area shrouded in perpetual miasma. Within it lay a wealth of rare treasures beneficial to those in the Foundation Establishment and Qi Training stages.

Unfortunately, while valuable, these treasures were also dangerous. Without proper technique, a Foundation Establishment cultivator entering here would be doomed.

Having recently broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage, Yu Feng needed herbs to consolidate his realm, and this perilous place held what he needed.

A graceful figure passed by Yu Feng, leaving him stunned for a moment before blurting out a question.

“Senior Sister?”

The woman, thinking Yu Feng was calling her, turned to look, but realizing she didn’t recognize her, she continued on her way.

“Wake up, wake up.” Jiang Li waved his hand before Yu Feng’s eyes, calling him for a long time before he regained his composure.

“Do you know her?”

“Yes, her name is Wu Lian. She was once my

Senior Sister.” Yu Feng introduced himself. He had once studied under a master, and there was a senior sister in the sect, Wu Lian.

Wu Lian loved this younger disciple the most, always leaving her good things for him. Seeing Yu Feng’s constant gloom, Wu Lian approached him like an older sister, offering him comfort, deeply touching him and offering him warmth.

Unfortunately, the good times didn’t last. The sect was ravaged, and the master died a tragic death. Neither Wu Lian nor Yu Feng escaped that calamity.

Yu Feng tried to change his fate, but found that he couldn’t alter the fate of both his master and Senior Sister Wu Lian.

“If possible, I hope Senior Sister Wu Lian survives,” Yu Feng said firmly.

Jiang Li pondered for a moment. “Do you like her?”

“Ahem, admiration, that’s called admiration.”

“Oh.”

“Wait, don’t go any further.” Jiang Li suddenly called out to Yu Feng.

“What’s wrong?” Yu Feng was puzzled.

Jiang Li pointed to the sky, then pointed ahead. “There are cultivators in the Fusion Stage fighting in the universe, causing a meteorite to fall from the sky and hit that place.”

“What? This has never happened before!” Yu Feng was shocked.

Although he had never been here, he had heard of the reputation of this dangerous place. It would always be here in the future, so how could a meteorite fall?

“It must be something we did that triggered a series of reactions, culminating in a meteorite falling here.”

Jiang Li was speechless. Being killed by a meteorite was something he could actually encounter.

He saw two Fusion Stage cultivators fighting, one practicing the Blood River Method, the other possessing extraordinary poison skills.

“Then let’s run… No, Senior Sister Wu Lian is still there!”

Yu Feng was about to flee when he remembered Senior Sister Wu Lian was just ahead. Facing the meteorite, Senior Sister Wu Lian would surely die!

Go save her!

“Senior Jiang, can we go save Senior Sister Wu Lian?”

“Of course we should.” Jiang Li nodded. They were responsible for the meteorite incident. Even if they weren’t directly responsible, they were indirectly responsible. Yu Feng would feel guilty for the rest of his life because his beloved senior sister died because of it.

Upon hearing this, Yu Feng hurriedly sped up.

“Wulian… Senior up ahead, please wait a moment.” Yu Feng wanted to call out to Senior Sister Wu Lian, but then remembered that he hadn’t yet accepted a disciple and didn’t know her. So he changed his tone and called her Senior.

Senior Sister Wu Lian was at the Jindan stage.

Seeing Yu Feng calling her, Wu Lian stopped, unsure what this young cultivator was doing.

Jiang Li became invisible.

“What’s the matter?” Wu Lian had excellent hearing. Hearing Yu Feng call her name and then change his words mid-sentence, she thought Yu Feng was peculiar.

“Senior, a meteorite is about to fall. Please leave this place immediately.”

“Meteorite?” Wu Lian looked up. The sky was clear, no sign of a meteorite falling.

The meteorite was too far away for Wu Lian to see.

“Yes, I’ve cultivated a technique that allows me to sense fortune and misfortune, predict the future, and turn misfortune into good fortune. Now I sense a meteorite falling.”

Unexpectedly, someone telling her she was facing a disaster, someone whose realm was lower than hers, Wu Lian naturally doubted Yu Feng’s words.

Seeing his sister’s disbelief, Yu Feng gritted his teeth and said, “A quarter of an hour. If there’s no meteorite falling in a quarter of an hour, I’ll be punished by you, senior.”

Yu Feng’s words were sincere, and Wu Lian, half-believing and half-doubting, left with Yu Feng, fleeing far away.

Ten minutes later, Wu Lian saw a meteorite, ignited by friction, streak across the sky, heading their way.

Seeing this, Wu Lian grabbed Yu Feng and sped away.

“Senior…”

“Don’t talk, you’ll bite your tongue!”

Five minutes later, a meteorite, carrying light and fire, crashed to the earth, rumbling and roaring, stirring up a huge wave of dust.

Wu Lian cast a spell, enveloping herself and Yu Feng. Disregarding etiquette, they hugged each other, the huge rocks and dust whizzing past them, making them particularly creepy.

“Senior…”

“I know you’re right, no need to keep saying it!”

“No, what I want to say is, why don’t we dig a hole and hide there?”
