Then, it was as if I had entered some kind of flowing vortex, a strange sense of flow surrounding my consciousness, not knowing where it was being sent.

Chen Fenghuo felt the throbbing in his head intensify. He wanted to rub his forehead, but instead, his hand swung out with the momentum and slapped directly onto his forehead—

Snapped,

As soon as the sound stopped, she realized that she had somehow gone from standing to lying down.

Behind me was a soft, fluffy feeling, not the filthy floor I had imagined, but a soft and fragrant bed.

As I slowly opened my eyes, the ceiling I saw was completely unfamiliar.

"Blue...?" she murmured to herself.

At the same time, a warm sensation fell around the back of her hand, as if something was embracing her left hand.

Turning my gaze, I saw Xi Heng's appearance.

Her naturally flowing white hair hung down beside the bed, meandering around her wrists and clothes.

She wore a beautiful red and white dress adorned with phoenix patterns, which harmonized perfectly with her temperament.

Her pale red eyes fell upon him, and a smile, seemingly welcoming, played at the corners of her lips.

"Finally awake? How are you feeling now?"

His words revealed a hint of concern.

Chen Fenghu blinked, but kept her lips closed and did not answer.

I just wondered: Is this an illusion?

Is the strangeness caused by one's own desires? Or is it a nostalgic illusion arising from the self's severe injuries?

If it's strange, then it's best not to answer right now...

But it won't be reality, because she knows that her true form is in the Xuanxiao Realm, and the entire realm is sealed off by the Void Blood Tide, making it impossible for her to leave.

“Even without saying a word, I can see some intention in your eyes.” Xi Heng rested one hand on the other's arm, resting his chin on his other hand, and slowly spoke:

"You're still worried that I'm actually a monster trying to harm you, right?"

"..."

“I am not strange. There is a reason why you are here, but it would be too troublesome to explain.” Xi Heng said helplessly, “Simply put, I have mastered a certain amount of the power of time, found another you from another place, and then awakened her in this world… But since the two of you are in the same sea of ​​time, it is inevitable that there will be an influence.”

"You've connected with another version of yourself, and that's why you've suddenly arrived here..."

The girl explained slowly, while the blonde woman on the bed listened attentively, gazing at her face.

Watching the strands of hair on her cheeks and shoulders sway slowly with her words and actions, and staring at that familiar face that seemed to glow but would never be seen again, her mind gradually became hazy and confused.

She thought to herself, "If only I could truly be with Xi Heng in another stable outside world, instead of the desperate prison that is the Xuanxiao Realm."

The girl's melodious voice gradually stopped, and she picked up the drink on the table next to her and took a sip.

Two or three minutes later, Chen Fenghuo, who had been slumped on the bed like a doll, finally responded, his voice hoarse:

"Fine... Whether you're weird or not, I'm already deeply involved."

After saying that, she waited for Xi Heng beside her to suddenly transform into a demon and devour her.

But after a while, Xi Heng's response was:

"You still don't believe it... Are the strange phenomena over there so powerful that even high-level cultivators can't distinguish between reality and illusion?"

The white-haired girl raised her hand to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear, then relaxed and said, "It's good that we can talk. I'll try to find a way to support you, but I don't know the coordinates of the Xuanxiao Realm yet. Could you send them to me?"

“Xuanxiao Realm is nothing but a dead zone, where no one can enter and no one can leave.” Chen Fenghuo turned his gaze to another direction.

The window was open, and a gentle, warm breeze was blowing in.

White birds fluttered past outside, and distant green mountains surrounded the area, with waterfalls hanging like silver ribbons between the mountains.

She sighed softly from the bottom of her heart.

"Don't worry, I'm very powerful. I should be able to get into that world." Xi Heng patted the other person's shoulder as they lay down. "Even if I can't save the world, I can at least save you and take you away."

"I..." Chen Fenghuo hesitated for a moment.

After a half-minute silence, he finally said, "After I left the Fire Hell, I wandered aimlessly. First, I found the You'ai Realm by luck, but it was destroyed. Then I came to the Xuanxiao Realm, but I was doomed there as well... I don't know the exact coordinates. There are no real coordinates in the void within the realm. There are only relative coordinates with a few other realms around it."

"Whether it's relative coordinates or which realms they refer to, tell me," Xi Heng led the way.

Chen Fenghuo remained vigilant, but saying these things wouldn't cause any trouble, since Xuanxiao Realm was already in dire straits.

“The Realm of Wandering Embers, the Realm of Illusion, the Realm of Tide, the Realm of Radiant Light, the Realm of Sword Pavilion… these are the five realms that are connected to the coordinates of Xuanxiao.” As she spoke, she also used talismanic characters to draw their coordinates relative to Xuanxiao in the air.

"There are a lot." The girl noted down the coordinates and nodded.

In the past, Senluo did not openly communicate with other realms.

"Two of the realms have been destroyed by the blood calamity, and the other three realms have been lost to the wind." Chen Fenghu shook his head: "Or rather, the Xuanxiao Realm itself has lost contact. Most of the communication secrets are unable to transmit out of the void covered by the blood calamity, and the requests for help sent by the several long-distance crossing arrays set up with a lot of resources have not received any response."

"It's not that the message couldn't be sent out, but rather that no region was willing to risk helping," Xi Heng said.

"That's how it should be..."

"I have also begun searching for the locations of the five realms you mentioned earlier. If I find them, I will go there as soon as possible."

"If you are truly Xi Heng, be prepared," Chen Fenghuo whispered a reminder. "The Blood Calamity is extremely powerful, far beyond ordinary imagination. If faced directly, even a Dao Integration cultivator might not be able to truly withstand it."

“I know more about strange calamities than you do,” the white-haired girl smiled faintly. “Don’t worry.”

In the distance, the avatar inputted the five realms it had just heard about and contacted the cultivators who had previously been in contact with it and sold realm information.

No relevant intelligence was obtained in a short period of time.

"By the way, are there any other names for these realms? Even if the coordinates are a bit vague, it doesn't matter." Xi Heng wanted to increase the probability of finding them.

“Okay…” Chen Fenghuo pondered for a moment, then slowly recited a few domain names.

When the tenth one was mentioned, Xi Heng suddenly blinked and interrupted:

"You mean the Purple Wheel Realm?"

"What's wrong?" the blonde girl asked groggily, her head still throbbing.

"I know that."

Not only did he know that Yin Wanluan beside him was still the temporary ruler of the Purple Wheel Realm.

……

Volume 1: Chapter 364, Stars Galloping Along the River

Having identified the Purple Wheel Realm as a transit point, Chen Fenghuo, lying on the bed, looked at Xi Heng for a while longer and chatted with him for a few more minutes. Then, a vague premonition of drifting away and leaving resurfaced in his mind.

So he spoke softly:

"I think I have to go back again."

In the brief few minutes of conversation just now, she gradually began to trust Xi Heng, who was still unsure whether it was an illusion or something strange.

They believed that even if she wasn't the person in question, she was at least a warm, fleeting memory, rather than a terrifying monster trying to take her life.

"Mmm." Xi Heng nodded gently, appearing quite reliable.

"Remember what we just said: after we return, find time to release the Immortal Rainbow Stones towards the Purple Wheel Realm to create a beacon for me."

The Xuanxiao Realm is one of the few realms that can produce Immortal Rainbow Stones. The several Flowing Light Crossing Arrays previously set up within the realm were based on Immortal Rainbow Stones.

Although the distress signal released by that large array did not receive any response, in theory, even the Blood Tide Calamity should not be able to stop the 'light' emitted by the Immortal Rainbow Stone.

Light is something that pervades the world, so much so that its existence is often overlooked.

However, in the realm of cultivation, this thing holds an extremely high and supreme status.

Even with the power of time that Xi Heng currently possesses, he is unable to manipulate light.

And the strange calamities that can be limited by time naturally cannot stop the far-reaching rainbow light emitted by the Immortal Rainbow Stone.

She wanted to save Chen Fenghuo, and only one final step remained in the preparation.

That is to say, the relative coordinates between the Xuanxiao Realm and the Zilun Realm have not been used for hundreds of years, and the actual coordinates are likely to change due to the expansion of the void outside the realm or various void calamities.

The light that is emitted may not reach its destination directly; it may instead be directed in another direction.

She needs to find a way to capture the distant rainbow light that may have deviated.

After a brief farewell, Chen Fenghuo's consciousness gradually faded, and his body fell into a brief coma.

Xi Heng used his divine sense to investigate and found that the other party was not seriously injured, so he focused his attention on the problem at hand.

"A magical artifact for detecting the void..."

As he murmured the words, the interface of shops and trading halls in the Imaginary Realm appeared before his eyes.

After a short search, several hundred pages of information about magical artifacts appeared.

Most of them are multi-functional flying boat compasses, and the more expensive ones have radar-like functions, which can vaguely detect powerful spatial and spiritual energy fluctuations when in the void.

However, the farther the detection range, the less accurate the detection becomes.

The spiritual energy fluctuations caused by the Immortal Rainbow Stone were not too great, and most flying boat compasses could not detect them.

However, a compass with sufficient accuracy has too small an effective range, and is even less effective than observing with the naked eye.

"I feel like buying a telescope would be much better than these spaceship compasses and star charts." Xi Heng eliminated the compass category, and the remaining items were all kinds of strange and unusual items.

“Thousand Illusion Crystal, Shifting Treasure Banner, Heavenly Void Pot, Cave Heaven Changing Banner, Transformation Stone…” Xi Heng moved them one by one.

They all sound impressive, but a closer look at the descriptions reveals that they are mostly nothing special.

In terms of function, some are used to avoid void calamities, some to deal with extraterrestrial beasts, and some to calculate safe routes and sea lanes.

Or they are just ordinary speed-enhancing magic items or special talismans.

At first glance, none of them were worth buying.

The girl looked around and gently shook her head.

He then diverted half of his attention to his external avatar in the celestial realm.

Open the shop interface of the Heavenly Realm and search for magical treasures used in the outer void.

The Heavenly Realm is vast and boundless, containing countless treasures. However, most of the items sold in the mall are standardized magical artifacts and treasures that integrate multiple functions, with few special items available.

"These are all common items, but it seems I'll have to find a way to buy the special supplies myself... It's a bit of a hassle," Xi Heng muttered to himself.

Items in the Celestial Realm shops can be purchased simply by clicking and paying, and the items will transform into spiritual light that gathers and takes shape before your eyes—a spell that can achieve this function must be quite advanced and consume a great deal of spiritual power.

Therefore, it only provides conversions for regular goods and does not cover other special items outside of the shop.

"But the Heavenly Realm is so vast, who should I ask to buy it..." The girl then contacted several people she had previously inquired about information about the Xuanxiao Realm and sent them messages asking if they had any ultra-long-range detection artifacts capable of detecting the fluctuations of the Immortal Rainbow Stone.

The response came quickly – yes, but at a very high price.

Xi Heng then retrieved detailed information about a certain golden divine tree within his spiritual fire space and provided it to the other party for a quote.

After several conversations, the other party said that two divine trees could be exchanged for a device, and sent over the details.

"A star chart made from the mother of the fairy rainbow stone..." Upon hearing this explanation, she fully understood why this object could be used for investigation.

"Using the resonance effect? ​​That's rather simplistic and straightforward,"

The girl easily entered the message and confirmed the transaction.

The transaction took place in the Guangtudu area of ​​the South China Sea Prefecture.

"..."

The Heavenly Realm is no small place. Even if Xi Heng used the power of space and time to travel at full speed from the Northern Continent to the Southern Continent, it might still take several years or even more than ten years to arrive.

By then, the Xuanxiao Realm should have already perished.

She rubbed her forehead for a moment, then asked if there were any spatial spells that could speed up transactions.

The result is that items can only be delivered to certain main cities, which are also extremely far away.

The word 'distance' is truly difficult to overcome in this realm.

Even spatial techniques are of little use over very long distances.

"Is there a Celestial Rainbow Stone Mother in the Imaginary Realm?" Xi Heng turned his attention back to his main body. After scanning the trading market without finding one, he directly issued a short-term mission to search for the information.

During the search, I thought that if I couldn't make the mother stone into a star chart, the resonance effect might not be very strong.

So he turned his attention back to the Celestial Realm to contact the holder and spent light talismans to buy the amplification spells and overlapping formations hanging on the Stone Mother Star Plate.
