Yu Jinchen thought to himself, no wonder these two always carried a trace of spiritual energy when they fought. He had wanted to investigate, but it turned out they were practicing an evil technique.

Originally, their next destination was the capital city of Fengtian, but after discovering something amiss with the Wuji Sect and the Dongtian Sect, the family decided to change their route and head to Huai'an City instead.

If I don't find out the truth, I'll always have a knot in my heart. Let's just consider it a gift to the kind people of this world for my mistakenly entering this world.

Huai'an City is located south of Dongyang City, more than a thousand li away from here.

Thinking that it wouldn't be very convenient to fly on a sword here, the family returned to Dongyang City and bought four fine horses for transportation.

"Dad, Mom, the scenery of this mountain range ahead is so beautiful! Let's stop and play for a while before we continue."

When they were less than 500 li away from Huai'an City, Xu Shuyin saw a mountain range covered with flowers and refused to go any further.

It was rare for their daughter to be so interested in a place, and the couple doted on their child. Besides, they weren't in a rush, so they stopped at her request.

As for Xu Shuyi, he is a good older brother who never contradicts his sister's requests.

Once inside the mountains, the family casually tethered their horses in the woods and then strolled through the forest, leisurely enjoying the mountain scenery.

Back in the Lingchuan Continent, there were countless landscapes far more beautiful than this. But back then, besides searching for various spiritual plants, we also had to constantly watch out for suddenly appearing monsters.

Since I started cultivating, I've never had such pure leisure time before.

"Mom, this place is so beautiful. I've never seen these wildflowers before in the Lingchuan Realm. If I weren't so worried about my grandfather and the others, I would have stayed here for a few more years."

Enjoying the temporary leisure time here with her eyes half-closed, Xu Shuyin sighed.

Seeing her daughter so happy, Xu Qingman blurted out, "Then let's have fun here for a few years. Anyway, when we left home, I told your grandparents that we wanted to travel around for a few years before going back."

Xu Shuyi nodded in agreement, saying, "Father, Mother, I also think this is a good idea. Let's stay here for now, looking for our way back while traveling around and exploring the world."

As soon as Xu Shuyi finished speaking, Xu Shuyin excitedly exclaimed, "Yay! My brother and I have always dreamed of being chivalrous knights since we were little. We always wanted to be chivalrous knights who roam the world with swords. Now we can finally make our dreams come true."

After saying that, he looked at Yu Jinchen and asked for his opinion, "Father, what do you think of this idea? Do you agree?"

Yu Jinchen nodded, "Alright, your mother has made up her mind, when would I object?"

Besides, this suggestion was exactly what he wanted to hear. Who doesn't dream of being a chivalrous knight-errant?

After playing in the mountains for a long time, the family prepared to leave and continue their journey.

Just then, Xu Shuyin exclaimed in surprise, "Wow! What an adorable little white fox!"

Following her gaze, they saw a small white head peeking out from the bushes, looking at them with bright, lively eyes.

Xu Shuyin walked over gently, squatted down, and held out a roasted chicken leg. "Little guy, come here to your sister. I'll give you something good to eat."

The little white fox tilted its head and looked at her, but finally couldn't resist the temptation of the food. It jumped in front of her, took the chicken leg, and started gnawing on it.

Seeing how much it enjoyed eating, Xu Shuyin offered it another one. However, the little guy shook its head at her in a very human-like way and tugged at her sleeve, indicating that she should come with it.

Xu Shuyin found it very interesting, so she actually followed. This wasn't the cultivation world, and the little white fox had no cultivation, yet it was still able to express its meaning so clearly to people.

Xu Qingman and her husband, along with Xu Shuyi, also found it interesting and followed Xu Shuyin.

After following the little creature over several hills, it finally stopped in front of a waterfall. Looking back at Xu Shuyin following behind, the little white fox suddenly darted into the waterfall.

Xu Qingman and the others used their divine senses to explore and discovered a stone cave inside the waterfall. Apart from the little white fox, there were no other people or animals inside.

Seeing that the others did not follow them in, the little white fox came out and called out again, then tilted its head and went back into the cave.

Even though they couldn't understand animal language, the family could clearly understand its meaning: it was urging them to follow.

The group did not disappoint it and followed them inside immediately.

After following the little guy for about ten minutes, we arrived at a stone chamber deep inside the cave.

Upon arriving here, the little white fox stopped and squatted on the only stone table in the stone chamber. On the stone table was a fist-sized luminous pearl, which emitted a soft glow, illuminating the entire stone chamber.

Seeing that Xu Shuyin and the others were staring at him, the little white fox pressed its front paws against the luminous pearl. Then, one of the stone walls of the stone chamber creaked and moved to the left, instantly revealing a passage wide enough for two people.

It was only then that Xu Qingman's family realized that, despite all of them possessing cultivation and having explored with their divine senses, they had not only failed to discover the stone chamber, but also the passage behind it.

After a careful inspection, they finally understood the reason when they saw a set of advanced concealment array plates.

Seeing that the little one had already entered the passage, Xu Qingman and her family quickly followed.

Several small fluorescent stones were embedded in the stone walls on both sides of the passage. Although they were not as bright as luminous pearls, they still made the passage less dark.

Even with this faint light, the family could clearly see the dozens of large wooden crates on the ground.

At the little white fox's prompting, Xu Shuyin opened the wooden box at the front, which was filled with gold bars.

However, on top of these gold bars was a scroll of bamboo slips.

Opening the bamboo slip, Xu Shuyin softly read the words on it: "Fated one, I am Fang Tianhao, a member of the Fang family, an ancient martial arts family in Fengtian City."

More than a hundred years ago, after our family's great ancestor cultivated to the peak of the Heavenly Realm and ascended to the Upper Realm, no one in this world has been able to successfully ascend since.

Because my Fang family ancestor was the last person to ascend to immortality, the entire martial arts world racked their brains but could not find the reason, so they blamed everything on my Fang family.

Overnight, more than a thousand members of my Fang family were wiped out, except for me, who was sent out of our ancestral home by my grandfather using a secret method.

Unfortunately, although I have good talent, I have reached the peak of the Heavenly Rank in less than a hundred years of hiding here. After avenging my family, I still cannot find the path to ascension.

After nearly two hundred years of wasted time, knowing that his days were numbered, he left his remaining possessions and his pet, Little White, here, waiting for the right person to come.

No matter who you are, I only hope you can help me fulfill my last wish and use this wealth to help the poor and needy.

After Xu Shuyin finished reading the letter, the whole family was stunned.

It seems the legends of this world are not false. Strangely, they ascended to the upper realm after only reaching the peak of the Heavenly Rank.

Strangely, there are also lightning tribulations when cultivating martial arts from the Yellow Rank to the Earth Rank, and from the Earth Rank to the Heaven Rank.

The peak of the Heavenly Realm is only equivalent to the Nascent Soul stage. If someone with this level of cultivation ascends, to what extent does that person ascend to?

This is truly an interesting world.
