To achieve the fastest speed, one must use Light Escape, but it consumes a lot of Awareness. Therefore, Li Hong chose to summon Yue Que for the journey, as this consumes less Awareness than using Light Escape. During breaks, they could use the Eight Formation Flag. Although the speed of the Eight Formation Flag is only half that of Yue Que, it allows them to rest while still making progress.
At first, Fuxi was able to keep up with Li Hong's speed, but after three days of continuous travel, Fuxi clearly began to lag behind. Li Hong had no choice but to dismiss Yue Que and switch to the Eight Formation Flag, pulling Fuxi into the Yin Yang Platform Anti-Space.
Fuxi was instantly dumbfounded; in the blink of an eye, they had changed locations. Here, the Five Elements Spiritual Energy was abundant beyond imagination. In the center, there was actually a pond formed from Five Elements Spiritual Energy, with many colorful stones at the bottom radiating rich Five Elements Spiritual Energy. Upon closer inspection, it turned out they were condensed from pure Five Elements Spiritual Energy. Moreover, the entire expanse of Gorge was filled with top-quality immortal herbs, with the least being over a thousand years old. Near the mountain top, some seemingly unremarkable low shrubs bore crystal-clear fruits. Upon closer inspection, Fuxi couldn't help but exclaim, "Crimson Fruit! Various Crimson Fruit trees!"
Seeing Fuxi's astonished expression, Li Hong felt a sense of pride and pointed to a nearby Jade Palace, saying, "That's where we can rest. Fuxi Ancestor, feel free to gather any immortal herbs here to replenish your spiritual energy. Just call me when you're ready."
"Wait, I want to see my daughter. Can you bring her here?" Fuxi urged anxiously.
Li Hong shook his head: "Xi He has no cultivation; those without cultivation cannot enter here. The Spiritual Energy is too intense and could overwhelm a mortal. Once this is over, I'll give Xi He a Frosted Jade Vermilion Fruit; she will surely establish her foundation smoothly then you won't have to worry."
"No, you're mistaken; Xi He does have cultivation," Fuxi insisted firmly.
Now it was Li Hong's turn to be surprised; he had checked multiple times and confirmed that Xi He indeed had no cultivation.
Fuxi explained: "My daughter was born from my marriage for appearances' sake. Her mother was a mortal but had ancient celestial bloodline. Unfortunately, she passed away during childbirth. When Xi He was very young, I used special methods to awaken her celestial bloodline; her potential is astonishing—she advanced to Refining Heart Stage overnight, which even I didn't expect! But you know that our Xu Yang Immortal Palace has tens of thousands of celestial beings like Xu Shiwann and others. To prevent them from discovering her, I had no choice but to seal her cultivation with secret methods. If she could enter here, she would break through to Golden Core in less than three days. This is a great opportunity! My daughter will gain thousands of years of life; she has always been obedient and understanding. She is my only daughter and has always been my good helper—Chu Hongzi..."
Before Fuxi could explain further, there was a flash before him and his tall daughter appeared, though she was unconscious. Fuxi quickly supported his daughter and cast a grateful glance at Li Hong.
Li Hong felt a pang in his heart; this was Fuxi, the ancestor of humanity and one of the Three Sovereigns. For his daughter’s sake, he was so humble towards someone like him—a testament to the hardships faced over countless years. Li Hong cast an improved Fire Shield around the father-daughter duo to isolate them from the overwhelming Spiritual Energy and bowed deeply: "Fuxi Ancestor, please don't be polite with me; just let me know what you need in the future. I'll wake her up right now."
A wave of Awareness entered perfectly—neither too much nor too little—just enough to disperse the medicinal effects. Xi He murmured softly and gradually awakened.
Upon seeing her surroundings, she immediately widened her eyes and sat up in shock: "Dad, where is this?!"
"Daughter, this is also your brother Chu Hongzi's Yin Yang Platform. No time for explanations now; I'm going to lift your seal right away—sit cross-legged quickly."
"Wait," Li Hong took out a small Jade Box from the Cosmic Bag, opened it, and inside was a bright red, translucent fruit. The fruit was covered in a thick layer of Spiritual Energy, looking very appealing.
"Taking this after unsealing will yield twice the result with half the effort. You two can rest here; I will continue on my way. Fuxi, if you really can't find your way, I'll call for you again."
"Okay, thank you," Fuxi said sincerely.
Li Hong quickly exited the Yin Yang Platform, put away the Eight Formation Flag, and summoned Yue Que to continue his journey.
This time, Li Hong flew at full speed. After about ten days without rest, on the tenth day, he felt somewhat fatigued. He then switched to the Eight Formation Flag and entered the Yin Yang Platform's Anti-Space.
As soon as he entered, Li Hong's face lit up with joy.
Xi He was sitting cross-legged on a treasure couch, having already formed her Golden Core and was consolidating her cultivation.
Fuxi looked spirited. Upon seeing Li Hong enter, he gestured for silence with his finger to his lips, and the two of them entered the Eight Formation Flag together.
While taking out spiritual herbs to recover his Awareness, Li Hong said, "By the way, Fuxi, I..."
Before he could finish, Fuxi interrupted him: "Chu Hongzi, don't keep calling yourself 'this kid' anymore, and don't call me 'Ancestor.' Actually, I've been thinking these past few days. My daughter Xi He has exceptional talent; her future achievements will surely exceed Dingyuan. If you don't mind, I would like to propose my daughter..."
At this point, Li Hong already knew what Fuxi was going to say—he wanted to marry his daughter! Without waiting for him to finish, Li Hong bowed deeply: "I am willing to be called siblings with Xi He. If Ancestor doesn't mind, I would like to address you as 'foster father.' May I ask if you would allow me to take care of Xi He for a lifetime? To have such a sister is something Li Hong has cultivated for countless lifetimes!"
Fuxi was momentarily stunned and hesitated before saying, "Do you already have someone in mind?"
Thinking of Chu Xi made Li Hong's expression darken. "To be honest with Ancestor, I actually have a fiancée. However, just before our wedding, she suddenly ascended without reason. My hard work in cultivation is all for finding her in the celestial realm. By the way, since the Pure Yang Immortal Emperor is one of our own, is there a Fairy named Chu Xi who ascended twenty years ago in Xu Yang Immortal Palace? I would greatly appreciate any information you could provide."
"I see. However, there hasn't been an immortal ascending from Xu Yang Immortal Palace in recent years—not to mention twenty years; it’s been three thousand years since then. I absolutely won’t hide anything from you! As for Chu Xi, if she really ascended, there’s only one possibility: she might be at Desolate South Celestial Palace with your ancestor Ji Lianzi. But that Seasoned Master... to be honest with you, he’s not the same as he used to be!"
Li Hong felt a chill in his heart. Wasn't this situation with Chu Xi very dangerous? He immediately wished to drop everything and rush to the Desolate South Celestial Palace to investigate.
Fuxi said, "Don't be anxious yet. First, tell me in detail about Chu Xi's ascension, because you mentioned she ascended inexplicably, which piques my curiosity."
Li Hong recalled the scene from that time, and as he spoke, it felt as if his heart was bleeding.
Sometimes, recalling painful memories can be even more agonizing than experiencing them at the moment.
After a long silence, Fuxi frowned and said, "Something seems off. She doesn't seem to have ascended. I've never heard of anyone who dispersed their power ascending; that's the first point. Second, that blood Lustful Temptation cloud is unheard of and definitely not a sign of ascension. Third, you said she only experienced one Tribulation before the celestial realm opened up and then she vanished. Tell me, is there anywhere in the world where there is only one Tribulation? There are too many doubts here."
Every word struck Li Hong's heart. In truth, he had considered these questions before, but this was his last hope; all his efforts were aimed at finding Chu Xi in the celestial realm, so he couldn't dare confront these doubts directly. However, now he knew that with Fuxi's experience, he would not be wrong. His heart sank, feeling cold and numb as his last hope vanished in an instant.
Fuxi understood Li Hong's feelings and patted his shoulder, saying, "Don't rush. Let me ask you this: at that time you were very close to her. Did she really just disappear suddenly and not get scattered by the Tribulation?"
Li Hong's hope ignited in an instant as he hurriedly replied, "I'm sure! Because at that moment I flew up with all my might and tightly grasped the hem of her wedding dress. That piece of wedding dress is still well preserved in my hands. If something happened to her, how could her clothes still be here? I am certain she is fine."
Fuxi nodded and pondered for a moment before asking, "What do you think this celestial realm is like?"
Li Hong didn't understand why Fuxi was asking this question at that moment but thought for a while before answering, "It's a space, a kind of barrier-like space, somewhat similar to my Yin Yang Platform but much larger—hundreds of thousands of times larger."
"Exactly! Now let me ask you this: do you believe there are other spaces in this world?"
Li Hong suddenly understood Fuxi's meaning and trembled as he said, "Are you suggesting that..."
"Yes! I may not know much else, but I feel there's something unusual about the Azure Lotus on Chu Xi's forehead. You also mentioned that at the critical moment she activated this mysterious Azure Lotus obtained from some Star Sect Temple and was enveloped in blue light. I suspect she did not ascend to this celestial realm. Although I'm not entirely sure, it should be guessed that for three thousand years now, no one has ascended from the Desolate South Celestial Palace either. Li Hong, what I mean is that Chu Xi did ascend, but she was fortunate enough not to come here; instead, she went to another higher celestial realm. This is very possible. You must know that this involves a secret of this celestial realm."
"Please enlighten me, Ancestor!" Li Hong listened intently with bright eyes.
"Legend has it that above the Immortal Realm lies an even higher world, which is the true Immortal Realm. Our Immortal Realm is merely a confining cage; only those with great wisdom and determination can find a way to reach that higher, true Immortal Realm."
"Is there really another Immortal Realm above ours?" Li Hong found it hard to believe.
"Yes, although this is just a legend, I have found some evidence. Many years ago, some Ancient Gods from the primordial chaos who were said to have opened up the world did not appear here. It is said that they were on their way to that true Immortal Realm."
Fuxi continued, "Don't rush. Take a rest for now. While you do that, I will calculate a divination for Chu Xi. However, this divination will consume a lot of my energy, and after I finish, I will need to rest for three days. You will have to travel alone during that time."
"Please, Ancestor, hurry! I just want to know if Chu Xi is safe. As long as she is well, no matter where she is in this vast world, I will definitely find her," Li Hong said joyfully.
It is important to note that Fuxi is the ancestor of the Bagua and is best at predicting the development of events and avoiding misfortune. Over the years, he has concealed his cultivation among mortals without harm, largely due to this powerful ability.
"Alright, give me an hour."
Fuxi also had a Cosmic Bag, which looked ancient. At first glance, Li Hong almost mistook it for his own Cosmic Bag.
Fuxi opened his Cosmic Bag and took out a jade-white Beast Tooth. He muttered incantations under his breath and then scattered the Beast Tooth onto the ground with a flourish. His eyes gradually began to shine with silver light.
