After feeling that his spiritual power level had increased by two levels, his mental state had greatly improved, and he seemed to be able to use immortal techniques at will. However, he did not try it easily, but continued to sit cross-legged and practice breathing exercises, trying to adjust himself to his peak state.
In the celestial realm, there is no distinction between day and night. Wang Yao was unaware of how long he had been meditating until he suddenly heard the voice of the fairy maiden, realizing that it was already the next day and the fairy maiden had arrived as promised.
"Fairy Maiden, please take me to the Evil Suppression Prison to see Xi Fu." Sensing that the Fairy Maiden was probably alone, Wang Yao immediately opened his eyes and said.
This was an agreement he had made with the fairy maiden long ago. The fairy maiden took him to see Xi Fu, and he broke off the marriage between Lü Xian and the Lion Roar Beast, so he didn't have much reason to be polite.
“Little Wang, you must be mentally prepared for this.” The fairy looked at Wang Yao with a serious expression. “Yesterday I went to see the Heavenly Emperor and specifically mentioned Xi Fu’s matter. I told the Heavenly Emperor that the foreign powers’ intention to destroy us is now obvious, and it is unreasonable and justifiable to continue to imprison Xi Fu.”
"But the Heavenly Emperor told me that the Heavenly Court imprisoned Xi Fu mainly to protect him."
"What do you mean?" Wang Yao was taken aback.
"The Heavenly Emperor told me that Xi Fuxian's lifespan is coming to an end, and he has reached the final moment of exhaustion. He is currently in the Evil Suppression Heavenly Prison. It is because the Heavenly Prison Formation has suppressed the immortal spiritual power that was about to dissipate from his body, leaving only an immortal body. Therefore, as long as the immortal body is not destroyed, he can prolong his life."
“On the contrary, if Xi Fu were to leave the Heavenly Prison, I fear his immortal spiritual power would immediately dissipate, his immortal body would shatter, and he would die,” the fairy maiden said solemnly to Wang Yao.
"Could it be...could it be that even the Taiqing Immortal City General Hospital outside can't treat him?" Wang Yao found this strange. When did the Heavenly Prison become a place for saving lives?
"The Heavenly Emperor said that Xi Fu's situation is quite special. After the Heavenly Court imprisoned him, it has always paid close attention to him and kept a close eye on him. As an immortal, if one wants to live a long life, one must constantly break through the level restrictions and improve the immortal body's ability to contain and use immortal spiritual power."
"Once a certain number of years have passed and the immortal's level can no longer be improved, the immortal body will gradually become weak and will no longer be able to withstand the enormous immortal spiritual power within the body. The final result will be the collapse of the immortal body and death."
"Xi Fu had been stuck in the Nascent Soul realm for far too long. He was also injured while being pursued by the Heavenly Court, and his immortal body was already unstable. This greatly accelerated the collapse of his immortal body. When he was imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison, he was already at the critical moment when his immortal spiritual power was about to dissipate."
"Most immortals who reach this stage either desperately seek opportunities to advance or sit and wait for death. However, Xi Fu ended up in the Evil Suppression Prison. In order to suppress the prisoners, the prison has a magic array specifically designed to suppress the immortal spiritual power within the prisoners. This is the prison's method of controlling its prisoners."
"But it just happened to suppress the immortal spiritual power that was about to erupt within Xi Fu's body, ensuring that his immortal body could barely hold on."
“Outside, even in this Taiqing Immortal City General Hospital, where would you find a suppression array as powerful as the one in the Heavenly Prison? With Xi Fu’s current immortal body condition, he simply cannot withstand it. You must know that Xi Fu suffers from an incurable immortal disease that cannot be cured by medicine.”
The fairy explained it to Wang Yao in detail.
"According to you, Xi Fu can survive in the prison, but will die immediately after being released?" Wang Yao asked in astonishment.
“Unless he can advance to the Nascent Soul stage as soon as he comes out, he will only face death. Moreover, when you go in to see him this time, you will definitely have to say something to him, so the suppression of the magic array must be relaxed even slightly. Even this will greatly hasten his death,” the fairy said, frowning.
"This..." Wang Yao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered the strange meat in his Qiankun. This thing was enough to help him advance three or four levels. Xi Fu had been in the Nascent Soul realm for a long time, and he should not be too far from the Divine Transformation realm. If he ate that strange meat, wouldn't he be able to advance and prolong his life?
"Alright, let's hurry over there." Wang Yao was overjoyed at the thought and said to the fairy.
"You...you've thought it through?" The fairy maiden was puzzled when she saw that Wang Yao seemed completely unconcerned, which was quite different from his previous attitude of caring for Xi Fu.
“I’ve thought it through. I thought it was something serious. Once I see Xi Fu, I’ll definitely resolve it properly for him. I still have many things to ask him. He’s just dead, enjoying his retirement. What am I supposed to do?” Wang Yao said with a smile.
"Fairy Maiden, are you going to the Evil Suppressing Prison?" Qinghe, who had been staying in Wang Yao's ward, had refrained from interrupting when she saw Wang Yao and the Fairy Maiden speaking seriously. But now that she saw Wang Yao was no longer holding back, she quickly and timidly spoke up.
“If he weren’t worried about Xi Fu’s life, I would naturally send him in,” the fairy said defiantly.
"My lord... could you... could you take me in too?" Qinghe pleaded.
"What...what are you going there for? Do you even know what it's for? Do you think it's some scenic spot you can just go and play around in?" The fairy looked at Qinghe in astonishment.
“I…I want to see our clan’s ancestor, Lady Zhemei,” Qinghe replied.
"Zhe... I'm not trying to be mean, young lady, but your identity is extremely sensitive these days. How dare you go to the Heavenly Prison to see your ancestor? Aren't you afraid that once you go in, you'll never come out again? I advise you to obediently return to the Demon Realm and stop causing trouble here." The fairy hurriedly refused upon hearing this.
“Fairy, it is indeed very sensitive to go to see Lady Zhemei now, but the rebellion of the Qingqiu tribe has been quelled, and Lady Zhemei has been suppressed in the Heavenly Prison. What can a little girl like her do inside? You should go all the way and take her there. Besides, I... I also promised to take her there.”
