The plainly dressed Fu Jun stared blankly at the red-robed beauty who was walking out of the restaurant. He was still in disbelief. "How could this be, how could this be …"
"We're screwed this time!" The red-robed beautiful woman walked out, feeling sullen in her heart. She was extremely careful and cautious. Even if she tried to seduce Young Master Xing Huo in the dark, she only hinted at him slightly at the start and didn't leave anything behind. It was only after a thousand years that she was certain that Young Master Xing Huo had taken the bait that she truly kicked him out.
She even purposely said that she couldn't let Lord Fu be too sad and purposely stalled for time until now.
"I didn't expect that Young Master Xing Huo had been faking it all this time. In fact, his faking was even better than mine." The red-robed beauty silently mused to herself. She could be considered a veteran, yet she had not seen through Young Master Xing Huo's disguise at all. In fact, in the legends, Young Master Xing Huo had never had a dao companion before and only knew how to cultivate. Who would have thought that he was even better at disguising his emotions than her?
"Hmph, so be it if you fail. Let's see if you can enter the Holy Land during the Star Convention this time. If you fail, you will have to change your identity. " The red-robed beauty, Ni Yan, secretly calculated. She was quite decisive. To her, seducing people was just a way to obtain resources for her cultivation.
…
Inside the restaurant.
Fu Jun suffered a huge blow. Previously, he thought that his Dao companion only had a change of heart. Who would have thought that all these years had been a pretense and deceit? It was all fake!
"Brother Fu Jun, she is intentionally lying to you. Why are you still immersed in it?" The golden-robed youth laughed as he poured some wine. "Come, come, come. Let's drink."
"Now I know that she was just pretending in the past, but can she really transcend just because she wants to?" Fu Jun smiled bitterly, "Brother Xun Yi, I know that you have good intentions, and you have indeed helped me avoid even greater troubles in the future. But … in my heart, I secretly wish that you had never pointed it out. "
The golden-robed youth was slightly taken aback.
"If it's true, how good would that be." Fu Jun turned his head and walked out.
The golden-robed youth sat there alone and poured himself a cup of wine. His gaze was distant as he muttered to himself, "If it's true …"
He poured himself one glass after another and drank silently. Only when he was done did he pay the bill and leave.
In the corner.
Dongbo Xue Ying, on the other hand, was watching everything that was happening. As one of the five teachers of the convention, he had long since received the name list and information regarding the participants of the Star Convention. Naturally, he knew these three people.
Fu Jun: Cultivated for 320 billion years. Rogue cultivator. Adventuring outside. Not long after reaching the Unity realm, he met 'Ni Yan' and became dao companions with her.
Ni Yan: She had cultivated for 1.1 trillion years and was also an itinerant cultivator. Now, it seemed that she was an extremely cunning cultivator who liked to seduce other experts to become dao companions, thereby cheating them of their resources. Among the cultivators, there were all kinds of evil demons. Naturally, there were also those who deceived others.
Xing Huo Xun Yi: Cultivating for 530 billion years, his background is huge! The previous two were loose cultivators, but Xing Huo Xun Yi was the son of the famous' Xing Huo Emperor '. Because of his father's bloodline, his cultivation speed was extremely fast, and the speed at which he stepped into the Unity Realm was even faster than Dongbo Xue Ying, in just 1.8 billion years. But after that, his strength rose at an extremely slow pace. After all, his father was a Primal Chaos realm giant, and he could only reach the Unity realm by relying on his bloodline cultivation system.
Because his status was high enough, there was a lot of information regarding Xing Huo Xun Yi. From young to old, there were a lot of records.
According to the records, he had never had a dao companion before! He only knew that he was immersed in cultivating in the Xing Huo God Palace. It's a pity that his strength was ordinary.
"Interesting. Truly interesting." Dongbo Xue Ying looked at the departing back of this golden-robed young man, "A person who has never had a dao companion and only knows how to cultivate actually caused that person called Ni Yan to stumble. It seems that there are many unknowns that have yet to be discovered."
Dongbo Xue Ying became interested in this Young Master Xing Huo.
Naturally, no one present could recognize Dongbo Xue Ying's identity. Because as the teacher of the convention, those with some background would know who the teacher of the convention would be. The moment he was recognized, it would be troublesome. Thus, Dongbo Xue Ying had to change his appearance and conceal his aura while walking in the Blade Emperor City.
*****
Blade Emperor City, within one of the many cavern-dwellings that were specially used to receive important guests.
"Father."
Xing Huo Xun Yi returned to his cavern-dwelling.
A black-haired male was currently seated alone in the courtyard. He had a majestic figure. Even sitting there, he was taller than Xing Huo Xun Yi by a head! Just by emitting a small amount of aura, he was able to obstruct the operation laws of the sacred world. Wherever he was, the laws of the sacred world would have to retreat. Xing Huo Emperor was famous for being cold and tyrannical. But in front of his son, this coldness and tyranny was much weaker.
"Xun Yi." Xing Huo Emperor said, "You are the son of I, Xing Huo. This time, I have invited you to participate in the Star Convention. I hope that you will not embarrass me! Your big brother has already gotten through the fifth level Star Pagoda. I don't have a high requirement for you. Just get through the third level Star Pagoda. "
"I can't do it." Xing Huo Xun Yi calmly said.
"You can't even do this? I can give you any cultivation resources you want, yet you can't do it? "Xing Huo Emperor was slightly furious," Unless you still haven't forgotten that illusory wife of yours? "
"How could I forget? How could I forget? "
Xing Huo Xun Yi stared at his father, "I can't forget. If you feel that I will embarrass you, I can give up right now and not participate in the Star Convention."
Xing Huo Emperor was stunned.
He had no other choice. That was why he forced his son to participate in the Star Convention. He hoped that his son would try his best in this gathering where many experts would gather.
"Go." Xing Huo Emperor did not say anything else.
Xing Huo Xun Yi turned around and left.
Xing Huo Emperor sat there silently. He was filled with regret.
He had two sons. His youngest son had an extremely high talent. Even though he cultivated the bloodline system, he had also cultivated the ancient cultivation system! His youngest son specialized in the illusory realm in the ancient cultivation system. Cultivating both great systems at the same time, the ancient cultivation system was only slightly slower than the bloodline cultivation system. He spent 300 million years to step into the Void God realm, and that made Xing Huo Emperor ecstatic!
The bloodline cultivation system depended on the father, but the ancient cultivation system had a high requirement on comprehension ability. Even though the father was formidable, and the children's comprehension ability would not be too bad, it still depended on the children themselves.
But his son could become a Void God in the illusory realm in 300 million years. He did not care about the price to find a precious treasure that could cultivate the illusory realm. It was worth a total of 10,000 Origin World Rocks. It was called – the 'Boundary Stone'. The Boundary Stone would naturally produce an illusory realm within. Furthermore, it was an extremely exquisite illusory realm. The illusory realm formed would be different every time.
Studying it would allow one to study all sorts of profound mysteries of the illusory realm.
After his son obtained it, he would frequently send his consciousness into the 'Boundary Stone' to experience many illusory realms! Those illusory realms were extremely mysterious. The internal law system was comparable to that of a miniature cosmos. Furthermore, it would be different every time.
Hence, after cultivating for 2.6 billion years, his son Xing Huo Xun Yi had reached the Unity realm in the ancient cultivation system. But following that, something happened …
The Boundary Stone.
The illusory realm was too real! The worlds formed within were filled with countless lifeforms. They were just like the real world. They had spirituality, emotions, gratitude and grudges. It was precisely because it was sufficiently real that the operating law of this illusory realm was comparable to that of a miniature cosmos.
But his son, 'Xing Huo Xun Yi', had fallen in love with a girl within the illusory realm.
Even though he knew it was fake, Xing Huo Xun Yi treated it as a child at the start. After all, he had experienced too many illusory realms and all sorts of emotions. This was also the reason why he was good at 'disguising'. But even though he knew it was fake, as time passed, Xing Huo Xun Yi still fell into it.
Because everything was too real. It had touched the inner heart of Xing Huo Xun Yi.
He fell into it.
He did not wish for it to end! He had always been living with that girl in the illusory realm. They had even become Dao companions. He had even thought of ways to let his wife live longer.
In the 'illusory realm', his wife had indeed become stronger and lived for a long time. But ultimately, it was just an illusory realm. This illusory realm would eventually collapse, and the 'Boundary Stone' would automatically create a new illusory realm realm.
"No –" When the illusory realm collapsed.
When his wife disappeared in front of him.
Even though he had told his wife everything in the end, and she understood that she was a part of the illusory realm, she had accepted it.
But Xing Huo Xun Yi could not accept it.
The world in front of him collapsed. All living beings were destroyed. Even his wife was destroyed within.
"No, no –"
At that moment, Xing Huo Xun Yi had gone completely mad.
