"Why did Xia Wudi attack the Heavenly Palace back then?"
Fang Hong pondered this question repeatedly in his heart as he slowly walked across the square outside the Scripture Pavilion.
Suddenly, a bold thought erged in Fang Hong's mind.
"Could it be that Xia Wudi wanted to kill Great Heavenly Venerate Luo Sheng, then feed the Dao Body of this strongest Heavenly Venerate to the Demon Gourd, refine an ultimate Dao Pill, and then use this Dao Pill to charge into the Saint Realm and achieve sainthood?"
Great Heavenly Venerate Luo Sheng was the master of the Heavenly Palace, and also the strongest Heavenly Venerate recognized in the Immortal Realm, the number one powerhouse in the Immortal Realm.
His Dao Body contained endless Great Dao Power. If it could truly be fed to the Demon Gourd and refined into a Dao Pill, its effects would be unimaginable, absolutely enough to drive any Heavenly Venerate powerhouse mad.
Thinking this way, Xia Wudi's actions back then seed to have a reasonable explanation. But on second thought, Fang Hong quickly extinguished this idea, a slight chill running down his spine.
The thods of Heavenly Venerate powerhouses were unimaginable. If he were to presumptuously speculate about their secrets here, and Great Heavenly Venerate Luo Sheng sensed it, the consequences would be simply disastrous.
Fang Hong recalled the scene when he first obtained the Demon Gourd. The Black-clothed person who suddenly appeared and then mysteriously disappeared might have been Xia Wudi himself.
Moreover, the Black-clothed person had specifically instructed him to hold onto the Demon Gourd, saying that he might have a chance to revive the Hell Gate in the future?
Regarding this matter, Fang Hong had no desire to get involved, and currently had no ability to do so.
The Hell Gate was an enemy of the Heavenly Palace, a heretical Dao Lineage personally annihilated by Great Heavenly Venerate Luo Sheng.
If the people of the Heavenly Palace knew that the Demon Gourd, the life-bound Dao Artifact of the Hell Gate's Sect Leader, had fallen into his hands.
They might directly treat him as a remnant of the Hell Gate and hunt him down, which would likely bring endless trouble.
"It seems that in the future, when using the Demon Gourd, I must be even more cautious and absolutely not expose its existence." Fang Hong secretly warned himself in his heart.
According to the records in the books, the Hell Gate's headquarters back then were located in the "Sea of Death."
That was an extrely dangerous sea area deep within the Barren Sea, an extrely long distance from the All Beings Continent.
There was also a Dragon God Continent in between, making it extrely difficult for ordinary people to reach.
Although the Sea of Death had been thoroughly purged by the powerhouses of the Heavenly Palace after the Hell Gate's demise, there shouldn't be any remaining treasures, in theory.
However, a thought always lingered in Fang Hong's mind: he wanted to go there and take a look.
A Heavenly Venerate powerhouse like Xia Wudi might have left so secret Immortal Cave near the headquarters.
It might contain his Cultivation insights, treasures, classics, and other things. If he could find them, it would be of great benefit to his Cultivation...
Suppressing the various thoughts in his mind, Fang Hong composed himself, stopped overthinking, and walked towards the teleportation array.
Fang Hong left Book Sea Peak via the teleportation array and headed towards the core area of the Dao Lineage.
Before embarking on his journey to the Sea of Death for experience, he still had an important matter to attend to.
That was to raise his Cultivation as quickly as possible; at the very least, he had to breakthrough to the Immortal Emperor Realm first.
Otherwise, with his current strength, going to the extrely dangerous Sea of Death would be tantamount to seeking death.
Not long after, Fang Hong arrived at the core area of the Dao Lineage.
Upon stepping in, Fang Hong clearly felt that the Immortal Qi in the air had beco exceptionally dense.
Here, the mountains were clear and the waters beautiful, peaks overlapped, green trees provided shade, and clouds lingered in the valleys. The environnt was secluded and exquisitely beautiful, definitely a rare treasure land for Cultivation.
According to the Dao Lineage's rules, any Elder in the Immortal King Realm was qualified to open their own Immortal Cave in this core area and enjoy the uniquely advantageous Cultivation environnt.
"I wonder where my beloved wife's Immortal Cave is." Fang Hong stood in the air, looking around, his heart full of anticipation.
He quickly took out the spirit communication token he used to contact Su Shan, injected a trace of Immortal power, and sent her the ssage that he had arrived.
The spirit communication token flashed, and soon there was a response. Su Shan clearly inford him of her Immortal Cave's location.
After receiving the precise information, Fang Hong no longer hesitated. His figure moved, transforming into a streak of light, and he rapidly flew among the continuous mountain ranges.
In less than half an hour, Fang Hong followed the direction indicated by the spirit communication token and arrived in front of a particularly scenic mountain peak.
This mountain peak soared into the clouds, its body verdant and towering. Several magnificent and grand palaces were situated on its summit.
With upturned eaves and painted beams, set against the lingering clouds, they appeared even more ethereal and full of Immortal Qi.
This was Su Shan's Immortal Cave.
As soon as Fang Hong approached, he felt that the restriction around the Immortal Cave had been opened in advance, clearly indicating that Su Shan had already prepared to welco him.
Fang Hong's figure flashed, instantly arriving in front of a grand hall.
Almost at the sa mont Fang Hong stood firm, the hall doors slowly opened, and a familiar figure appeared at the entrance—it was his beloved wife.
Since Ascending from the Lower Realm to the Immortal Realm, and after enduring many twists and turns, Fang Hong was finally reunited with Su Shan.
"Husband, you're finally here!" Su Shan quickly stepped forward and threw herself into Fang Hong's embrace, holding him tightly, her eyes full of longing and joy.
Feeling the soft body in his arms and slling the familiar fragrance, Fang Hong's heart was also filled with warmth.
"Hehe, it's been many years, has my beloved wife secretly missed ?" Fang Hong smiled, stroking his beloved wife's hair.
Su Shan's cheeks flushed slightly, and she deliberately pouted, saying with a hint of coquetry, "No."
"You don't, huh?"
"I observe that my beloved wife's aura seems a bit unstable. I presu you've encountered so bottleneck in your Cultivation recently. I must guide you promptly to avoid delaying your future progress." Fang Hong said with a serious expression.
Before his words finished, Fang Hong, without waiting for Su Shan to react, scooped her up by the waist and strode into the interior of the grand hall, not forgetting to close the door behind him.
The couple had not seen each other for many years, so naturally, they had to relive their past warmth and sweetness.
"Look what this is?"
Fang Hong flipped his palm, and several black and white fruits quietly appeared.
Light flowed on the surface of the fruits, and faintly, a Dragon and a Phoenix phantom could be seen circling and playing within, emitting a faint Dao rhythm.
"These are yin-yang dragon-phoenix dao fruits! Where did you get such good things?" Su Shan asked in surprise.
Fang Hong smiled and waved his hand.
"I bought the saplings at the trading street in the city so ti ago. Good luck."
"That's truly too coincidental."
"When I was exploring an ancient ruin in the Human Realm before, I unexpectedly obtained a 'Dragon Phoenix Joyful Union Art.' This Dao thod just happens to require yin-yang dragon-phoenix dao fruits as an auxiliary."
A hint of surprise flashed in Su Shan's eyes, and she imdiately took out a small booklet, handing it to Fang Hong.
Fang Hong took the booklet and quickly flipped through it, his expression growing more joyful the more he read.
"This is indeed a top-tier dual cultivation Dao thod, complenting each other. Let's try its effects right now."
As soon as his words fell, both of them simultaneously took a yin-yang dragon-phoenix dao fruit and swallowed it.
