Qi Cultivation Starting from the Repair Panel

According to what Fang Lingchuan said, since the Ancestor of Ancient Immortals, only the Immortal Ancestor has passed through the corridor.

As time went on, an unwritten rumor spread in the Great Immortal Realm.

This is said to be the true test left by the Ancestor of Ancient Immortals, and those who can walk through completely will have the opportunity to become Chengzu, with the potential to oversee the Immortal Path.

This rumor is naturally unverifiable, but there is always a group of people who believe it.

The news of Chu Zheng appearing at the Heart Burning Corridor quickly spread, drawing the attention of many.

In less than half a day's time, many cultivators had gathered around the Heart Burning Corridor, half of whom were women accompanied by clan elders.

Cultivators who had been preparing near the Heart Burning Corridor for a long time were not very aware of the many changes in the outside world, and they were quite puzzled to see batch after batch of cultivators arriving.

"Why have so many people come for the 'Cutting Illusion and Inquiring Heart' this time?"

"That's the former steward of the Fang Family, retired for many years. I had heard news of his death years ago, what's he doing here at his age?"

"The Taiyi Clan, who has avoided the world for so long, actually has people coming as well."

"And the Feng Family, the people from the Immortal Ancestor's line are all here?!"

Many clan elders, who had mingled in the Great Immortal Realm for a long time, were already familiar faces, naturally attracting a lot of attention.

"What's the reason? Why have so many big figures come today?!"

The surroundings gradually became a bit noisy, but Chu Zheng paid no attention, walking straight to the front of the Heart Burning Corridor, sitting cross-legged, quietly waiting for the opening opportunity.

The entrance to the Heart Burning Corridor is an ancient bronze gate nearly ten zhang tall.

In five more hours, this gate will open, and behind the gate, the entrance to the corridor contains the Space Array, capable of accommodating a hundred cultivators at once without interfering with each other.

The time it takes to pass through the corridor is very uncertain. Some are forced out in less than a day, while others have stayed for years, yet still haven't walked through, and ironically, their distance covered may be less than those who spent just two or three days.

Every time the Heart Burning Corridor opens, it lasts no more than ten years, and after ten years, all cultivators inside, regardless of the outcome, will be expelled and will never have a second chance.

Though there is no threat to life, some have gone mentally unstable because of it, becoming deranged.

...

...

Fu Zhixuan, after greeting Chu Zheng, silently stepped aside, no longer disturbing him.

It is important to know one's place. She and Chu Zheng did not have any profound friendship, and just saying hello was her limit. Saying more would inevitably seem like currying favor, and it really wasn't worth it.

After retreating some distance, she looked around at the various clan elders and suddenly found herself a bit bewildered, especially when she saw some familiar faces in the crowd, and she swiftly walked over.

A woman in blue about twenty-five or six stood by the edge of the field, with an elder nearing sixty years old beside her, clad in a black robe with golden patterns, calm as an abyss.

"Aunt? You haven't been out for a long time; why are you here today? You clearly said to wait for the next time when I invited you before."

Fu Zhixuan, unable to conceal her surprise, glanced several times at the elder beside her before uncertainly greeting him,

"Sixth Grandfather?"

"Hmm, it's rare you still remember me, girl."

Fu Mingxu nodded slightly, his expression considerably softened.

Seeing Fu Mingxu, Fu Zhixuan was even more astonished. This grand elder, selected for the direct line due to stepping into the Immortal Venerable realm, she hadn't seen him for at least a thousand years.

"What brought you here, elder?"

After asking, Fu Zhixuan looked around, observing the numerous unfamiliar noble women, gradually realizing the situation. Her gaze slowly changed as she looked at Chu Zheng, sitting with his back to everyone.

"I heard Chu Zheng was here, so I brought Yun He along, hoping to forge a marriage bond."

Fu Mingxu raised his hand to set up an array, isolating onlooking eyes, and with a nuanced expression, he whispered,

"I heard you seem acquainted with Chu Zheng; could you help make an introduction? If this succeeds, you'll be well rewarded."

With that, he glanced up and down at Fu Zhixuan: "If you're interested, you might as well give it a try. If it truly works out, I can report to the Family Head and help your family enter the main line, becoming equals with the direct lineage descendants, a privilege that only a line emerging from the Ancestral Realm would have."

Fu Zhixuan was momentarily stunned, then immediately shook her head upon regaining her senses: "I have no close relationship with him, and Chu Xianzun is already married, having exchanged vows with heaven and earth alongside his wife, who came from the Cangyun Realm with him. It's better not to consider this idea."

Though she had once lent a hand to Chu Zheng, ultimately she hadn't truly helped him, even costing an Immortal Alliance camp.

Chu Zheng's survival was entirely his own doing, and she dared not claim any credit.

Moreover, Chu Zheng is now vastly different from before. Using past incidents to insinuate a connection, especially for something as significant as a marriage alliance, she truly lacked the nerve.

"It's just marriage, what's so significant about it."

Fu Mingxu didn't mind, waving his hand carelessly,

"How old is Chu Zheng this year, after all? How many storms has he seen? His wife, since she's from the Cangyun Realm, likely isn't someone extraordinary and may only end up at the True Immortal stage. Yun He, being a direct line descendant of our Fu Family, with an Immortal Ancestor in her lineage, wouldn't exactly be marrying beneath herself."

In his view, not even two hundred years old is merely a child, lacking maturity. Moreover, being so young and possessing such cultivation, it likely means most of his energy was spent on cultivation, how many extraordinary beauties could he have possibly seen?
