The three of them supported each other and walked for an unknown amount of time before finally reaching the foot of Tongtian Peak. They found a secluded cave, cleaned it up briefly, and then Lu Lingxi and Yao Yao set up several defensive formations. Only then did the three of them sit down cross-legged and take the time to adjust their breathing and recover.

Nalan Rongzhi and Di Lin quickly entered a meditative state, but Lu Lingxi did not meditate immediately. She placed the Nine Luminaries Star Chart flat on her lap and gently stroked the ancient and mysterious patterns on the chart. In her mind, she kept replaying the scenes on the murals of the ruins, as well as the texts on the books and stone tablets.

Those fragments of information were gradually pieced together in Lu Lingxi's mind. She finally understood that Hei Yuan's scheming desire to obtain the Nine Luminaries Celestial Disc was not only to open the so-called "Gate of the Void," but also to destroy this crucial sealing node and release the suppressed demons. The Nine Luminaries Celestial Disc was the key to suppressing the "Eye of the Void."

“Endless void…” Lu Lingxi’s fingertips trembled slightly as she thought of her master, Immortal Venerable Yunyin, and the information he had mentioned about her parents.

"Eye of the Void... God of Darkness... Endless Void..."

Lu Lingxi suddenly had a bold guess. She activated the divine power fragments and simultaneously probed a wisp of spiritual power into the Kunlun Ring, attempting to establish a connection with the Nine Luminaries Heavenly Star Disc in her hand through these two divine objects.

"Om-"

The Nine Luminaries Star Chart seemed to sense the divine power within Lu Lingxi Yao's body, as well as the aura originating from the Creator God in the Kunlun Ring. The ancient runes on the surface of the star chart once again lit up with a soft nine-colored light.

Amplified by the divine power fragments and the Kunlun Ring, Lu Lingxi Yao's senses became exceptionally sharp. She seemed to pierce through time and space, seeing some blurry scenes that had been sealed away by the dust of time.

She saw a towering figure in the endless dark void, wielding a long sword, fighting bloody battles against countless void demons. Although the figure was blurry, the familiar aura and the resonance from the depths of her bloodline made Lu Lingxi Yao's heart clench suddenly—it was her father, Lu Lingchen Xuan!

She saw, deep within the void, an enormous, black hole-like "eye" looming in and out of existence. The "eye" emanated an evil aura, and countless chains stretched out from all directions, attempting to imprison it. Beneath that "eye," a woman radiating holy light was entangled by countless dark tentacles. Her power was being frantically devoured by the "eye," yet she still struggled to resist, using her own light to protect something… The woman's appearance bore a striking resemblance to Lu Lingxi Yao; she was her mother—Yueying Jiuge!

"no no……"

Lu Lingxi's face turned deathly pale instantly, her body trembled uncontrollably, her nails dug deep into her palms, and blood dripped from between her fingers without her noticing.

Her father did not abandon her and her brother. He entered the endless void to find her mother and to fight against the evil "Eye of the Void"!

Her mother was not sacrificed, but imprisoned by the "Eye of the Void," and her power was being devoured, yet she was still struggling to hold on.

All the clues came together perfectly at this moment: Hei Yuan was a follower of the "Eye of the Void," and they participated in the internal strife in the Demon Realm and the Monster Realm in order to break the seal and open the "Gate of the Void" to allow the evil god to descend.

"Father...Mother..."

Lu Lingxi's tears fell uncontrollably as sadness, anger, and self-blame overwhelmed her like a surging tide.

"Yao Yao!" A call filled with anxiety and worry rang in his ears. Nalan Rongzhi had finished his meditation at some point and came to her side. When he saw Lu Lingxi Yao looking distraught and with tears streaming down her face, his heart clenched and a panic he had never felt before surged into his heart.

He reached out and pulled her into a tight embrace. Feeling the coldness of her body and the deep sorrow that ran through her bones, Nalan Rongzhi's heart ached as if it were being cut by a knife.

"What happened?" His voice was hoarse with worry.

Lu Lingxi Yao lay on Nalan Rongzhi's strong chest, and the grievances and pain that had been suppressed in her heart for many years finally erupted at this moment. She cried loudly, as if she wanted to vent all her sorrow.

Nalan Rongzhi didn't speak, but silently tightened his arms, letting her tears soak his clothes. He could feel how fragile and helpless the person in his arms was at this moment.

Di Lin was also awakened by Lu Lingxi Yao's crying. When he saw Lu Lingxi Yao's grief-stricken appearance, his heart tightened, and he quickly asked with concern, "Master, what's wrong?"

After a long while, Lu Lingxi's crying gradually subsided. She raised her pretty face, which was streaked with tears, and her red eyes flickered with a complex light. She took a deep breath and, in a hoarse voice, told Nalan Rongzhi and Di Lin everything she had seen in the Nine Luminaries Star Chart and her guesses about her parents.

After listening to Lu Lingxi's account, Nalan Rongzhi uncontrollably exuded a chilling killing intent, his eyes burning with rage, and the terrifying pressure caused the temperature inside the cave to drop a few degrees.

“Eye of the Void… Black Abyss…” He pronounced these names slowly and deliberately, his voice filled with chilling coldness. Whoever dared to hurt the parents of his beloved, whoever dared to cause her such heartache and pain, he would make them pay a bloody price.

Di Lin was stunned. He never expected that Lu Lingxi Yao would carry such a heavy secret, and that her parents were involved in it.

“Master…” Di Lin knelt on one knee and said solemnly, “Whatever you want to do, no matter how dangerous the road ahead may be, Di Lin is willing to die for you!”

Nalan Rongzhi held Lu Lingxi's hand and said, "Yaoyao, no matter what you have to face, I will be by your side. We will rescue your parents together."

As Lu Lingxi felt the warmth from Nalan Rongzhi's palm and listened to Di Lin's heartfelt vow, a warm current surged in her heart. All her sadness and fear seemed to be diluted by this deep affection.

She wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and the confusion and vulnerability in her eyes gradually faded. She silently vowed in her heart: Father, Mother, wait for me, I will definitely find you, I will definitely rescue you!

She looked at the Nine Luminaries Celestial Disc in her hand, then at the distant horizon, recalling what her master, Immortal Venerable Cloud Hidden, had once said: "Legend has it that the Seventh Realm, the Illusionary Sea Continent, might hold a way to enter the endless void..."

The clues about entering the endless void that were just obtained from the Nine Luminaries Celestial Disc seem to be related to an ancient artifact called the "Void Ferry".

Now it seems that this 'Void Ferry' is the key, but its exact location on the Illusionary Sea Continent and how to activate it are too few clues provided by the astrolabe.

"Rong Zhi, after we finish dealing with things here, let's go to the Illusionary Sea Continent!" Lu Lingxi stood up, her voice still a little hoarse, but full of determination.

Nalan Rongzhi nodded without hesitation and held her hand tightly, his eyes filled with warmth: "Yaoyao, don't be anxious. Now that we have a direction, we will search step by step until we find it."

Di Lin also said in a deep voice, "Master, I will stay with you too!"
