Twenty days later.

Xu Que and his group appeared in the Earth Continent.

For a long time, the Heavenly Continent had been shackled, and the Space-Breaking Talisman could not reach it directly.

Although the Earth Continent and the Xuanhuang Continent were also part of the Heavenly Continent, they could only be considered scattered fragments, and the shackles and seals were not firm, having little impact, so the Space-Breaking Talisman could barely pass through.

So if they wanted to return to the Heavenly Continent, they could only start from the Xuan Yi Immortal Domain of the Earth Continent and break through that Mirror Lake again to lead to the Heavenly Continent.

However, the first stop for Xu Que and the others was not the Xuan Yi Immortal Domain where the Mirror Lake was located, but they landed in the Zhenyuan Immortal Domain first.

This was also the Immortal Domain Xu Que stepped into when he first entered the Earth Continent all those years ago.

Now, the entire Zhenyuan Immortal Domain had almost become the world of the Zha Tian Bang.

Although it was only so in name, the Litian Academy and other forces had all announced their joining of the Zha Tian Bang, becoming its affiliates, and with the Zeng Dafoye sitting in command, acting as the spokesperson for the Zha Tian Bang on behalf of Xu Que.

Everyone also knew that the relationship between the Zeng Dafoye and Xu Que was extraordinary, so his influence was extremely great, and the influence of the Zha Tian Bang was therefore powerful.

That day, the return of Xu Que and his group instantly attracted the attention of many big shots.

The Zeng Dafoye, the Dean of the Litian Academy, and the leaders of other forces all rushed to welcome them at the first opportunity.

Xu Que's interest in showing off was very low. He was in a hurry to return to the Heavenly Continent, but he stopped in the Zhenyuan Immortal Domain, mainly to check on Lin Yuxi's recent situation on the way!

Back then, she left without saying goodbye to pursue the inheritance guarded by her master. Xu Que didn't follow her but sent people from the Litian Academy to protect her secretly.

But now that he had returned to this place, he ultimately had to understand the situation.

However, the people from the Litian Academy came to plead guilty to Xu Que.

Lin Yuxi had disappeared!

"What's going on? How could you lose a perfectly fine person? Was she deliberately hiding from you?" Xu Que frowned on the spot and looked at the people from the Litian Academy.

Beside him, Zixia Fairy also frowned slightly and glanced at Xu Que. How did another Lin Yuxi appear?

The people from the Litian Academy replied in a panic: "Reporting to the Sect Master, that's not the case! Miss Lin had been pursuing the inheritance for those few years, and although some people with no eyes disturbed her, they were all dealt with by us secretly, so she was in no danger. Until two years ago, she entered the Heavenly Fire Xuehu and has since disappeared without a trace!"

"Heavenly Fire Xuehu?" Xu Que was stunned.

When he was messing around in the Zhenyuan Immortal Domain back then, he had heard of this place called Heavenly Fire Xuehu.

When he first heard the name, Xu Que thought it was the Xuehu (Fu) of the Mars Intelligence Agency, but later he found out that such a place really existed.

Heavenly Fire Xuehu was a lake covered in white snow all year round, but there was a white flame in the center of the lake that burned all year round without extinguishing.

This was a very abnormal phenomenon. How could ice and fire coexist?

Many people had once wanted to cross the Xuehu to see the white flame, but everyone who walked to the center of the Xuehu saw nothing and returned without success.

People watching from outside the lake said that the white flame in the middle had never disappeared, and they had seen with their own eyes those who entered the center of the Xuehu pass through the white flame.

At first, no one believed this, but later, as more people verified it, it became a strange story.

Some people thought that the place had nothing special, just an ordinary snow lake, and the white flame in the middle was just a phantom produced by light refraction, not real.

But some people speculated that the white flame possessed intelligence and probably didn't want to be discovered by those who entered, so it hid itself.

Amidst various opinions, the white flame was also called Heavenly Fire, hence the name Heavenly Fire Xuehu.

Later, many great abilities went to that place to see it themselves and studied it for a long time, but they also gained nothing. Later on, that place was gradually forgotten by cultivators and became just a place of strange scenery.

Now, the people from the Litian Academy said Lin Yuxi disappeared in the Heavenly Fire Xuehu, which made Xu Que unable to figure it out.

Because he had also been to that place, and he also gained nothing. Even the system couldn't detect anything special about that place, and the Heavenly Fire Xuehu wasn't large, only the size of a few football fields. How could a perfectly fine living person disappear inside?

"We watched her walk in, but she disappeared into the heavy snow in a short while. No matter how we searched, we couldn't find her aura, and she just disappeared into thin air like that." The people from the Litian Academy said with bitter faces, very terrified, fearing that Xu Que would punish them.

"Sect Master Xu, this matter cannot be blamed on them. At that time, after I heard the news, I also rushed over with Dean Qin and the others to see it myself, and we couldn't find any clues. But I suspect that perhaps that Heavenly Fire Xuehu is the inheritance place Miss Lin mentioned!" The Zeng Dafoye said.

Dean Qin and the others beside him also nodded one after another.

Xu Que fell silent upon hearing this. Others might not be credible, but the Buddha Master was still credible.

And when Lin Yuxi left, she did leave a letter stating that she was going to find the inheritance her master mentioned.

It was just unexpected that she would disappear in the Heavenly Fire Xuehu like this.

Looking at it this way, if there really was an inheritance in the Heavenly Fire Xuehu, it must be an extraordinary existence. The fact that the system couldn't find any clues back then was probably because the version level was too low!

"Forget it, we happen to be going to the Xuan Yi Immortal Domain on this trip, so we'll just go to the Heavenly Fire Xuehu to take a look!" Xu Que shook his head and said.

The location of the Heavenly Fire Xuehu was exactly at the junction of the Xuan Yi Immortal Domain and the Zhenyuan Immortal Domain. He decided to take a look, which could be considered fulfilling a bit of the final sentiment for Lin Yuxi.

After all, she was also from Earth, and she was once his first love.

For every man's first love, regardless of whether the ending was good or bad, it would often leave some position in his heart that was difficult to erase.

However, Xu Que was an exception. From his perspective, he didn't hope for Lin Yuxi to walk on this path of cultivation, but Lin Yuxi made her choice, and he wouldn't interfere too much.

After all, he didn't hope to have any more contact with Lin Yuxi.

Some pasts, once they have passed, can only truly become the past!

"Buddha Master, you should also come with us. This matter, regardless of whether there is a result, we are all preparing to return to the Heavenly Continent!" After setting off, Xu Que looked at the Zeng Dafoye and said.

Now that he had the strength to have a foothold in the Heavenly Continent, he decided to take the Buddha Master with him.

However, the Buddha Master smiled and shook his head: "I understand the Sect Master's good intentions, but I'm afraid I have to decline them this time."

"Oh? Why is that?" Xu Que was stunned.

Back then, when he wanted to take the Zeng Dafoye to the Heavenly Continent, the Buddha Master had refused him once, intending to wait until his own strength was strong enough before going to the Heavenly Continent.

Now that the Buddha Master's strength had improved, he still refused, which made Xu Que a bit puzzled.

"I have gotten to know a senior expert of the Buddhist Sect and intend to practice with him!" The Buddha Master smiled faintly, looking much more steady and calm than before, and his temperament had changed a lot.

He continued: "That senior said that in a short while, the Earth Continent will also return to the Heavenly Continent, so we will have a day to reunite in the future!"

"That's good!" Xu Que pondered for a while, nodded, and said with a solemn expression: "However, you must be careful. The return of the Earth Continent to the Heavenly Continent will not be too smooth, and I'm afraid there will be many casualties!"

"I know, but if I can't even withstand this little tribulation, what can I achieve after going to the Heavenly Continent?" The Zeng Dafoye nodded with a smile, his expression quite solemn.

"Haha, Buddha Master is awesome!" Xu Que laughed immediately and gave the Buddha Master a thumbs up.

"Buddha Master is just badass!" Er Gouzi also joined in the fun.

The group moved forward while laughing and talking!

A few days later, the group appeared at the edge of the Zhenyuan Immortal Domain and arrived at the Heavenly Fire Xuehu.

The entire Xuehu was covered by wind and snow, with snowflakes drifting like willow catkins. Looking from afar, it was like a snow city isolated from the world.

In the center of the Xuehu, there was a white flame burning fiercely.

Everyone could only feel the chill of the ice and snow, but couldn't feel the slightest temperature of the flame. At first glance, the flame really looked like a phantom, not existing in reality.

"Eh, wait a minute, this place seems familiar, I've been here before!" At this moment, Er Gouzi exclaimed in surprise and stepped forward.
