Fu Xi wasn't bad. Old Master Linghu thought it would be good if he could break through to the Golden Immortal Stage. But he broke through half a year ago and was now at the Golden Immortal Stage Level 3 Cultivation Stage. Compared to the other Fu Clan disciples, he was at a disadvantage, but not too bad.
After all, when entering the Secret Realm, his clan members wouldn't be in a hurry to act. The Fu Clan wasn't the only one who entered the Secret Realm, there were other young elites from the other clans. According to the usual practice, they had to defeat the other opponents first before fighting amongst themselves.
This meant that after entering the Secret Realm, as long as Fu Xi hid for a while, he would still have a chance to improve. He might even delay until he was almost out of the Secret Realm, when Fu Li, Fu Hong and the others would act. After all, it was shameful to attack one's own brother in front of outsiders.
"Are you familiar with this grandfather?"
Fu Xi and Du Feng walked towards the Fu Clan's courtyard together. On the way, Du Feng secretly used telepathy to chat with him.
"Not really, he wants to take my father away."
Fu Xi was indeed not familiar with Old Master Linghu because he hadn't been in the Heaven Realm for long. Old Master Linghu came to Hearthstone City to take Fu Yan away. In the end, both Fu Xi and Fu Yan were detained by the Fu Clan, leaving the old master behind.
In theory, the Eastern Heaven Realm wasn't rich and couldn't compare to the Southern Heaven Realm. But the Linghu Clan seemed to have some hidden power there. They felt that Fu Yan would be able to develop better there. As for Fu Xi, he definitely couldn't take him away.
If Fu Xi failed this mission, he would be dead. If he succeeded, he would be recognized by the Fu Clan and wouldn't be able to leave. On the other hand, Fu Yan was slightly older and his forging talent wasn't as high as Fu Xi's. As long as Fu Xi completed this mission, he could leave Hearthstone City to find his wife in the Eastern Heaven Realm.
"Understood. Do you want to follow your father to see your mother?"
Du Feng knew about Fu Xi's situation. When he was very young, his mother followed his grandfather and ascended to the Heaven Realm. Therefore, to be honest, he was not familiar with his biological mother. But regardless of whether they were familiar with each other or not, as a child, they all wanted to meet their biological mother.
"Of course. Do you have any ideas?"
Fu Xi did not doubt Du Feng's ability at all. He would definitely be able to help him complete the task or come out of the mystic realm. But the problem was, even if he came out alive, he would be forcefully detained by the Fu Clan. There was no way for him to go to the Eastern Heaven Realm.
"We'll talk about it when the time comes. I have some ideas that I'll only know after I go in."
Who was Du Feng? He was a person who never admitted defeat. When he was in the Lower Realm, the conditions were so harsh, and there were so many people suppressing him, but he still made it through step by step. How could this small matter in Hearthstone City be a problem for him? To be honest, as long as one didn't die, there would always be a chance to turn things around.
Even if there was an Immortal Monarch in Hearthstone City, Du Feng believed that he would be able to think of a way to bring Fu Xi away.
The two chatted as they walked. Soon, they reached the entrance of the Fu Clan's courtyard. At this moment, there were many people gathered at the entrance. There were Fu Li, Fu Hong, Fu Ying, Fu Yuan, Fu Feng, Fu Biao … A total of eight people. They were all disciples of the Fu Clan who agreed with Fu Xi's seniority.
Eh, didn't Old Mister Linghu say that the Fu Clan had ten quotas? There were eight youths in front of them. Including Fu Xi, there were only nine people in total. Because Du Feng, Jian Huang, and their entourage did not take up any quotas.
"Let's go. We'll know when we get there."
The Fu Clan was really extravagant. Old Mister Linghu was separated by Fu Xi and Du Feng. Fu Kangren was followed by Fu Ying and Jian Huang. Fu Li and Fu Yuan were followed by the same old man. Although they were not blood-related, they had the same grandfather and could be considered as cousins.
Fu Feng, Fu Biao, and the rest also had people following them. Including everyone's entourage, the group was really not small.
Such a large team didn't take any gaily-painted pleasure boat or airboat; instead, they all came to a broad ax. This flying axe was the weapon of the only Immortal Lord in Hearthstone City. The Fu Clan liked to use hammers, axes, or maces. There were very few who used swords.
Tsk tsk tsk … Interesting. This was the first time Du Feng rode on a flying axe.
Although the shape of the axe was a little awkward, and it was not as comfortable as a sword, it was not slow at all. In fact, it was quite stable. The Immortal Lord did not come personally. He only sent everyone with his flying axe.
The Immortal Lord was really arrogant. Even when his descendants were risking their lives in the mystic realm, he did not even look at them. One had to say that to be able to become a big figure, one's mental fortitude was quite good.
As for why he used the flying axe to send everyone, it was because other than the Immortal Lord's flying tool, ordinary people could not reach that place. The flying axe continued to rise. Soon, they arrived at the clouds. Ever since Du Feng came to the Heaven Realm, he had only flown at low altitudes. He had never looked up.
After all, this was the Heaven Realm. There might not be anything in the First Layer of Heaven. If he flew too high, he might be treated as prey and eaten. This time, the situation was different. The flying axe carried them up into the sky. They gradually approached the clouds in the First Layer of Heaven. Then, they dived in.
Wow, what a thick layer of clouds. When the flying axes carried everyone, they began to penetrate into the First Heaven. Du Feng realized that the clouds in the Heaven Realm were too thick. This meant that flying at high altitudes was not that dangerous. Because of the clouds, it was not that easy for the birds above to see their prey below.
"Screech …"
Just as Du Feng thought of this, he heard a sharp screech. This screech was very piercing. It made everyone uncomfortable. Then, a black shadow came over. From the size of the shadow, this bird was definitely huge.
Damn, they were going to be attacked. Du Feng looked at Old Mister Linghu and Fu Kangren. Both of them were elders at the Perfected Golden Immortal Realm. Fu Kangren, in particular, was already at the peak of the Perfected Golden Immortal Ninth Stage Cultivation. He had no intention of making a move, so there was no need for him to make a move.
"Puff!"
Just as Du Feng stared at the black shadow, the flying axe had penetrated the clouds and finally arrived at the First Layer of Heaven. Everything in front of them suddenly became clear. Under their feet was a mixture of white and dark clouds. In front of them was the endless sky. It was incredibly wide, and there were no obstacles at all.
