Chapter 865: 448 Cat and Mouse
[Prison Suppressing Tribulation Skill · Full Level Conditions for Seeing Yourself:
1. Predict your own future more than three tis and accomplish all (unfinished)
2. Confront a Calamity once (unfinished)
3. Refine one hundred Middle Grade Immortal Jades (unfinished)]
“Oh ho, finally brushed it out!”
Fang Zhixing’s heart was filled with joy, having anticipated it for a long ti, he imdiately took a closer look at the three conditions.
Xigou also saw it, feeling that these three conditions didn’t seem too difficult to achieve.
“Condition 1, requires predicting the future three tis, but doesn’t specify the difficulty level.
This ans, no matter how you predict it should be fine, right?”
Xigou thought he found a bug and suggested: “For example, you predict that you’ll drink a bowl of tea in one minute, wouldn’t that be easily accomplished?”
Fang Zhixing, however, felt it wasn’t that simple and asked the screen: “Is there a difficulty requirent for predicting the future?”
The screen replied: “No, but note that predicting future difficulties that are too high or too low carries risks.”
“No way, both high and low have risks?”
Fang Zhixing was surprised and asked: “How so?”
The screen: “If you predict a future with too high difficulty, causing it to be unachievable, you’ll inevitably suffer a backlash from Fate, with significant consequences.
At worst, your Cultivation falls, at best it turns into a Calamity, like tying a rope around your neck, endless troubles.”
Fang Zhixing instantly understood: “What about if it’s too low?”
The screen answered: “The risk primarily cos from other Fate Realm experts.
If you predict a future that is very simple, for example, predicting yourself to control the rain in one quarter hour, for soone who has mastered the Water Manipulation Technique, it’s effortless.
However, when you predict the future, it won’t be silent, inevitably causing so unusual commotion, as if you’re loudly declaring a vow in a crowd.
Such unusual commotion will draw the attention of other Fate Realm experts.
So, if your predicted future is too simple, seen through by other experts, they might seize the opportunity to predict a ‘blocking your success’ future.
Once you’re targeted, and then defenseless, failing to achieve the future as desired, your losses would be great.
And the expert who blocks you, it’s equivalent to successfully ‘casting a Calamity’ on you, gaining far more than a regular future prediction.
This is why the Fate Realm is also called ‘fighting with humans’!
Only if you fight and win against others, can you be superior, can you be an Immortal, thereby truly changing, controlling Fate.”
Hmm, the joy of fighting with people.
Fang Zhixing took a deep breath, clicked his tongue and said: “Sounds like a cat-and-mouse ga!”
The screen: “Yes, you can see it that way, but who is the cat and who is the mouse, will only be revealed at the last mont.”
Fang Zhixing couldn’t help but glance at the System Panel.
Interestingly, condition 2 is precisely confronting a Calamity.
In other words, Fang Zhixing can first predict a simple future, luring in a Fate Realm expert, then defeat the opponent.
Thus achieving two objectives at the sa ti, eting conditions 1 and 2.
The problem is…
Doing this kind of thing can easily get out of hand.
For instance, what if a powerful expert with formidable Cultivation is lured in, wouldn’t Fang Zhixing be shooting himself in the foot?
Thinking of this, Fang Zhixing lightly sighed, saying: “Eh, better be cautious.”
Xigou couldn’t help asking: “How to be cautious, no matter what kind of future you predict, there’s a chance of being interfered by other experts.”
Fang Zhixing laughed: “So, I have to wait, wait for other Fate Realm experts to predict the future.”
Xigou imdiately shivered, clicked his tongue and said: “Right, rather than worrying about others spoiling our plans, why not spoil theirs, hahaha, good idea!”

anwhile, sowhere in Tingchao Dock.
The Dock Master, Elder Sun, accompanied by a handso young man, arrived at a deep and serene cave residence.
“Master!”
“Ancestor!”
The three respectfully saluted, looking serious.
Soon, a weathered voice ca from inside the cave residence: “Huh, why are all three of you here?”
The Dock Master glanced at the handso young man, and said repeatedly: “Master, Wenji was beaten.”
The handso young man is Zhu Wenji, descendant of Zhu Tingchao, the founding Ancestor of Tingchao Dock.
At this mont, Zhu Wenji bared his teeth, revealing two rows of incomplete teeth, lanting: “Ancestor, Wenji was beaten by a bad guy, almost lost his life.”
Zhu Tingchao remained silent for a mont, then with anger said: “What happened, who dares to hit you?”
Elder Sun spoke quickly: “Wenji and three peer companions went drinking at a tavern in the city, encountered two patrons, due to a verbal conflict, the opponents brazenly attacked, severely injuring all four of them.
Afterwards, we imdiately traced the whereabouts of those two, capturing one nad ng Changgeng as he was trying to escape the city.
Then we perford a Soul Search on ng Changgeng, unexpectedly found that his mories were altered, he actually didn’t know the assailant at all.
This alerted us, suspecting the assailant might be part of a hostile force, infiltrating the city with ill intent.
Unfortunately, the assailant vanished without a trace, making it impossible to find any leads.”
At this mont, the Dock Master picked up the conversation, carefully saying: “Master, I can only See Yourself, but we don’t know who the assailant is, I cannot predict ‘I will et the assailant at a certain mont’ such a future.
To find the assailant, I’m afraid it’s necessary for you to personally take action, since you can See Heaven and Earth!”
Zhu Tingchao quickly understood, nodded and said: “Hmm, I can predict a future where ‘you and Wenji will encounter the assailant within three days’.”
