The day before leaving the Heaven Fiend Sect, Fang Bai once again had the Tiankui Immortal Emperor gather all the disciples to explain the Dao of Cultivation to them.

Tiankui Immortal Emperor was overjoyed upon hearing this, knowing how big of an opportunity the Palace Master’s explanation was for his disciples. He specifically instructed them to listen carefully to Fang Bai’s words, warning that missing even a single word could lead to lifelong regret.

Initially, some disciples of the Heaven Fiend Sect were indifferent, but after hearing Fang Bai’s explanation, each was utterly captivated, realizing that every word contained a hint of Taoist Rhyme and profound truth. Only then did they realize the Sect Master’s words were true.

Even after Fang Bai bid farewell to Tiankui Immortal Emperor the following day, the disciples of the Heaven Fiend Sect were still immersed in their cultivation state.

In the period that followed, many disciples of the Heaven Fiend Sect experienced ambrosia baptism-like epiphanies, attempting to break through to new realms, causing waves of immortal qi from the promotion to ripple throughout the sect’s territory.

One could say that after Fang Bai’s visit to the Heaven Fiend Sect, the entire sect was revitalized. Ten thousand disciples were filled with enthusiasm, leading to an unprecedented wave of cultivation.

Soon after this cultivation wave, Tiankui Immortal Emperor selected some disciples with relatively high aptitude from the sect and bestowed upon them the Water of Life gifted by Fang Bai, offering them another chance to advance.

Consequently, the overall strength of the Heaven Fiend Sect saw a significant enhancement, causing other opposing Immortal Sects and Immortal Gates to grow fearful. They either strictly restrained their disciples from clashing with the Heaven Fiend Sect disciples or brought lavish gifts to negotiate peace actively.

For a time, the Heaven Fiend Sect’s fame spread far and wide, with its prestige dramatically increased.

After leaving the Heaven Fiend Sect, Fang Bai returned to Canglan Immortal City and reunited with Xia Chenyu, Qin Yaorao, Fang Yun, Fang Gang, and Yang Mei.

"What? The Sect Master of the Heaven Fiend Sect is actually your disciple? And his true title is Tiankui Immortal Emperor?"

Upon hearing about Fang Bai’s adventures in the Heaven Fiend Sect, Fang Yun, Fang Gang, and Yang Mei were all greatly astonished.

They had been living in Red Bead Town for many years and had heard of the Heaven Fiend Sect’s reputation. They knew its Sect Master was a high-rank Immortal Emperor Realm expert, but they never imagined that such a powerful immortal, whom they could only look up to, would have such deep connections with Fang Bai.

"If we had known earlier that Tiankui Immortal Emperor was your disciple, we would have approached him for some cultivation resources over the years, and we wouldn’t have been in such dire straits."

Fang Yun said jokingly, then added, "Of course, we are strangers in the Immortal Realm and dare not casually reveal our relationship with you to other immortals. Otherwise, if the subordinates of the eight top Immortal Emperors found out, the consequences would be unimaginable."

Fang Gang nodded, saying, "The Immortal Realm is treacherous, and caution is always advisable. Although we have been lacking cultivation resources over these years and have lived somewhat miserably, at least we’ve been safe."

Yang Mei added, "Safety is a blessing! To me, no matter how strong one’s cultivation is, it can’t compare to the peace and safety of having the family together!"

In Yang Mei’s view, the eight top Immortal Emperors of the Immortal Realm were too powerful, with disciples exceeding a million in number. They were an unshakable force. Fang Bai’s goal of returning to the Immortal Realm to seek revenge on the eight top Immortal Emperors seemed like a distant dream, filled with countless dangers, where one wrong step could lead to total failure.

Yang Mei felt that instead of being obsessed with revenge, it would be better for Fang Bai to find a secluded place with his family, to live peacefully, leaving revenge to destiny.

Fang Gang, aware of Yang Mei’s feelings due to their many years as husband and wife, said, "The Emperor’s Palace was destroyed, and many disciples perished. This is Fang Bai’s obsession, a heart demon. Only by avenging these losses and rebuilding the Emperor’s Palace can this heart demon be completely eliminated, allowing him to make significant progress in his cultivation. Therefore, we must help Fang Bai."

Yang Mei sighed upon hearing this, looking at Fang Bai with uncertainty about what to say.

Fang Bai smiled at Yang Mei and said, "Once I’ve destroyed the eight Immortal Emperors and rebuilt the Emperor’s Palace, I will peacefully accompany you both in the Carefree Immortal Realm."

"Do as you will! I can’t control you now anyway..."

Yang Mei sighed again, her tone somewhat resigned. She gazed at Fang Bai, considering reaching out to touch his head but refrained, remembering Fang Bai’s other identity. She said, "Be careful in everything from now on and protect yourself! If anything were to happen to you, no matter how long our lifespans, it would be meaningless to live."

"Yes, I understand."

From her words, Fang Bai felt deep affection and, moved, he nodded emphatically.

In the Immortal Residence in Canglan Immortal City, Fang Bai and the others stayed for several months.

During these months, they were hoping for news of friends and relatives ascending from the Mortal Realm to the Immortal Realm, but to no avail.

"It seems it’s time for us to leave."

Fang Bai thought that it’s been months since he sent out his bounty message in Canglan Immortal City, with countless immortals helping to search for news of friends and relatives. Since no useful information has been obtained, it indicates that at least within a million miles, there’s no trace of those friends and relatives.

Thus, Fang Bai made a decisive decision to leave Canglan Immortal City and look elsewhere or perhaps visit the Transcending Heaven Domain, the fifth Heavenly Domain of the Immortal Realm.

Upon leaving Canglan Immortal City, Fang Bai used the Beast Taming Scripture to summon two Wind Rocs. He, along with Xia Chenyu and Qin Yaorao, shared one Wind Roc, while Fang Yun, Fang Gang, and Yang Mei took the other, flying southward.

Fang Bai remembered that heading south from here lies a vast sea called the Antarctica Sea. This sea is dotted with numerous Immortal Islands, where the scenery is beautiful and rich in Immortal Qi, home to many powerful immortals.

"Antarctica Immortal Emperor? Could he be your disciple as well?"

Upon hearing that Fang Bai intended to visit an immortal named Antarctica Immortal Emperor at the Antarctica Sea, Xia Chenyu casually asked.

Fang Bai replied, "He was an immortal friend I made during my previous life’s training. At that time, my cultivation was only at the Immortal Emperor Realm, and together, we killed an evil Immortal Emperor Realm expert, who we later found out was under one of the eight top Immortal Emperors, the Red Lotus Immortal Emperor..."

Qin Yaorao exclaimed, "Oh dear, Red Lotus Immortal Emperor surely wouldn’t let you off, would he?"

"Red Lotus Immortal Emperor was probably furious and sent many subordinates to hunt us down, but we managed to escape each time."

Fang Bai said with a proud smile, adding, "Eventually, we fled to the Antarctica Sea. Finding the scenery beautiful and secluded, Antarctica Immortal Emperor decided to settle there, while I continued my training. So, my relationship with Antarctica Immortal Emperor can be considered a life-and-death friendship. However, I’m unsure if he was implicated after the destruction of the Emperor’s Palace. It’s a good chance this time to visit him and see."
