Without waiting for Ling Mo Xie to find Zhou Xinyi, she came to him herself, though her expression was somewhat strange.
After not seeing each other for a long time, Ling Mo Xie didn't know what to say at first. After a long silence, he finally asked, "Are you... doing well?"
Although there were many questions in his mind, Ling Mo Xie only managed to say this one sentence. Zhou Xinyi nodded and replied, "The Senior Brothers and Sisters in Azure Cloud Valley are all very kind, and the Master is also very good. Aside from not being able to go out freely, everything else is fine."
Ling Mo Xie nodded but hesitated to speak. Naturally, he wanted to ask why Zhou Xinyi was out if she couldn't go out freely. Did something happen in Azure Cloud Valley?
Seeing the puzzled look on Ling Mo Xie's face, Zhou Xinyi sighed and said, "Follow me; let's find a quiet place to talk. The Cultivation World is bound to be in chaos, but there are even more serious matters that we in Azure Cloud Valley cannot resolve without you."
Zhou Xinyi's words left Ling Mo Xie even more confused. What did this have to do with him? If Azure Cloud Valley couldn't solve it, how could he?
With countless doubts in his heart, Ling Mo Xie set aside their past interactions and followed Zhou Xinyi to a secluded spot, eagerly waiting for her explanation.
Zhou Xinyi didn't beat around the bush and directly said, "The chaos in the Cultivation World is insignificant compared to what I need to tell you. Right now, the Immortal Realm is at a critical juncture of life and death."
Upon hearing Zhou Xinyi's words, Ling Mo Xie's expression turned incredulous. From what he understood about the Cultivation World, the Immortal Realm seemed like an omnipotent place. How could it be at such a critical point? How could Azure Cloud Valley, as a Hidden Sect in the Cultivation World, know about the Immortal Realm's survival? What did it have to do with him?
Zhou Xinyi's explanation not only failed to resolve Ling Mo Xie's confusion but also deepened it. Zhou Xinyi looked at Ling Mo Xie with a strange expression and said, "This matter can only be resolved by you."
Ling Mo Xie opened his mouth and finally said with frustration, "Xinyi, you really overestimate me. I'm just a cultivator who hasn't ascended yet; what ability do I have to resolve issues in the Immortal Realm?"
"Don't be so quick to refuse; let me explain the background first!" Zhou Xinyi knew that Ling Mo Xie must have many questions upon suddenly receiving such news.
"Alright then, I want to see what reason could possibly require someone like me to resolve a crisis in the Immortal Realm."
Ling Mo Xie pouted and said to Zhou Xinyi, now almost convinced that she was joking with him.
Zhou Xinyi could tell that Ling Mo Xie didn't believe her words, but there was no way around it; she could only explain. So she began, "Let me first tell you about the situation in the Immortal Realm! Our Azure Cloud Valley is called the Valley of Immortals for a reason; there are indeed real immortals here who oversee the passage between the Cultivation World and the Immortal Realm."
Ling Mo Xie nodded; there were many legends about Azure Cloud Valley, most of which were related to immortals.
Seeing Ling Mo Xie nodding, Zhou Xinyi continued, "This time, the calamity facing the Immortal Realm is unprecedented. No! Perhaps it can be compared to that great calamity from many years ago when nearly the entire Immortal Realm vanished. However, this time seems less severe than that."
"In the Immortal Realm, each direction has its own Celestial Emperor overseeing it. For countless years, they have been engaged in constant conflict. Over these years, many Celestial Emperors have changed hands, yet nearly every one of them has shown no intention of stopping their battles."
"But the Celestial Emperors each have their own complex relationships. Although they are at odds, various concerns prevent them from openly fighting."
"One day, the Southern Immortal Emperor grew tired of this situation and secretly reincarnated without telling his subordinates. In the Immortal Realm, time is of little value; decades pass like a day. Even if he disappeared for several decades, nothing significant would happen. If something did arise, he could choose to awaken and reclaim his cultivation. It all seemed fine, just a whim of the Celestial Emperor wanting to play around."
"Wait, you’re not saying that I am the reincarnation of that Southern Immortal Emperor, are you?" Ling Mo Xie interrupted Zhou Xinyi with a hint of helplessness.
"Giggling!" Zhou Xinyi covered her mouth and laughed, saying, "Of course not! Let me tell you directly: that damn childish Celestial Emperor is your father. His sudden rise is not without reason; it’s because the power within him is gradually awakening. He just didn’t have the memories of his time as a Celestial Emperor back then."
"Ah!" Ling Mo Xie breathed a sigh of relief. "Then you should go find my father. Since he is a Celestial Emperor, he shouldn’t have died so easily back then, right?"
"Right now, the chaos in the Immortal Realm cannot be resolved by any Celestial Emperor," Zhou Xinyi narrowed her eyes and said to Ling Mo Xie.
Ling Mo Xie opened his mouth wide: "If even a Celestial Emperor can’t solve this problem, why are you looking for me? You think too highly of me! I’m just the son of that so-called Southern Immortal Emperor, and since I was left in the Cultivation World, I probably wasn’t valued much."
Zhou Xinyi glanced at Ling Mo Xie and said, "You’re mistaken. It’s precisely because the Southern Immortal Emperor cares about you that after he returned to the Immortal Realm, he didn’t bring you with him but let you stay in the Cultivation World."
"When he returned to the Immortal Realm, it was already at the beginning of great chaos, with hostile Celestial Emperors. Leaving you in the Cultivation World was the safest option. Moreover, to ensure your safety, he sent your Soul to another realm. Originally in your body was a Soul that should have died. This way, if you were killed by someone from another Celestial Emperor, he could retrieve your Soul and recreate a body for you."
Ling Mo Xie was speechless for a long time. So it turns out he didn’t cross over but was originally from here, and Earth is referred to as another realm by them?
Zhou Xinyi didn’t notice Ling Mo Xie’s strange expression and continued speaking: "The other realm is a special existence where even powerful beings from the Immortal Realm cannot interfere. The Southern Immortal Emperor put in a lot of effort to send you there; your Soul would be very safe there."
"As for later on, calling you back was because the Southern Immortal Emperor obtained a treasure that could change the structure of the Immortal Realm. This treasure is said to be left behind by the only Celestial Master who ever appeared between heaven and earth."
"In today’s Immortal Realm, there is no longer any mention of a Celestial Master, but legends about them still remain. It is said that the Celestial Master was the first immortal born between heaven and earth, embodying the essence of heaven and earth. One could say that heaven was his father and earth his mother; born with supreme power, he upheld the will of heaven and earth and managed the Three Realms and Six Paths. The things he left behind are undoubtedly highly coveted."
Ling Mo Xie vaguely guessed something but remained silent, waiting for Zhou Xinyi’s explanation.
"And perhaps it’s true that the Southern Immortal Emperor loved your mother too much. At that time, his memories and cultivation had not yet recovered; he could only watch helplessly as he separated from Qiu Ye Ling. By the time he returned to the Immortal Realm, Qiu Ye Ling had already died, and Qiuye Qing replaced your mother. Regardless, in the end, he gave this treasure to you."
Ling Mo Xie nodded; this treasure might be that Immortal Master System, right?
"This current chaos?" Ling Mo Xie, having almost believed what Zhou Xinyi said, asked about this turmoil in the Immortal Realm.
Only then did it seem like Zhou Xinyi came back to her senses; she stuck out her tongue and said, "Right! We were talking about this chaos; how did we get so off track? It’s all your fault!" She shot a glare at Ling Mo Xie.
Ling Mo Xie was taken aback, but then he smiled. This demeanor was reminiscent of the Zhou Xinyi from before, who had previously appeared completely detached from the world, which made Ling Mo Xie feel quite awkward.
"Alright, alright, let's get down to business. It's because of this treasure that we don't know when it was discovered by other Celestial Emperors. Naturally, they are secretly coveting it. The Western Celestial Emperor has allied with the Northern Celestial Emperor to attack the Southern Immortal Emperor. As for the Southern Immortal Emperor, he has been a close friend of the Eastern Immortal Emperor for a thousand years, so a conflict broke out between them. That's not all; once the Demonic Path learned about the turmoil in the Immortal Realm, they also got involved. Now, the Western Celestial Emperor has already lost more than ten cities in his territory."
"Stealing a chicken only to lose the rice, although the Western Celestial Emperor regrets it now, at this point asking him to ally with the Southern Immortal Emperor? He would never agree to that. Not only is the Demon Realm stirring, but the Monster Realm is also restless. It is said that the Azure Peng Great Sage, who dominates one side of the Monster Realm, has already gathered a million monster soldiers, and their intentions are clear."
"Both the Demon Realm and the Monster Realm are not weaker than the Immortal Realm. Now that there is infighting in the Immortal Realm and the four Celestial Emperors are at odds with each other, even though they all know that if this continues, the entire Immortal Realm may be destroyed, none of them are willing to reconcile with one another. Moreover, even if they appear to reconcile on the surface, it would be ineffective if their hearts are not aligned. They cannot fend off both the demons and monsters."
"So what now?"
"So the Southern Immortal Emperor thought of the legend of the Celestial Master. The treasure he gave you is said to be a relic of the Celestial Master’s legacy. The Celestial Master back then was tormented by an incredibly long life and chose to die voluntarily, leaving behind this legacy. Whoever is fated to obtain it can inherit his position and manage the Three Realms and Six Paths."
Ling Mo Xie fell silent: "Isn't it Three Realms and Six Paths? Adding in the Cultivation World should make it four realms, right?"
Zhou Xinyi seemed a bit helpless. "What time is it? You shouldn't focus on that. The Cultivation World isn't considered a realm; it's just a world under the jurisdiction of the Immortal Realm. There are quite a few such worlds; when we say Three Realms, we are referring specifically to the demon, monster, and immortal realms."
"Even if I have a treasure left by the Celestial Master, I'm still only at the Great Ascension stage; it wouldn't be much use, would it?" Ling Mo Xie still appeared very calm. Although he had suddenly learned that he possessed a treasure capable of making him a supreme being in heaven and earth, which would leave anyone else unable to remain calm, he at least managed to maintain his composure.
"You don't need to worry about that. Since we've come to find you, we naturally have a plan," Zhou Xinyi said with a smile.
