Cultivating immortality relies on spatial abilities; defying fate to become the protagonist.

Chapter 164 Chidi
Suddenly, without warning, an incredibly powerful force struck, and the whole world seemed to be spinning.

Gu Shihan felt like a light, floating leaf, completely losing control of her body, before being violently thrown away by the thick, almost tangible white mist.

With a muffled thud, Gu Shihan's body slammed heavily onto the sharp, hard rubble, raising a cloud of dust.

A sharp pain instantly swept through her leg, causing her to gasp involuntarily.

"Crack!" Another slight but incredibly clear sound entered Gu Shihan's ears, and she felt a piercing, excruciating pain in her right leg.

Could it be... that her leg is broken? She was startled, and her brows furrowed tightly.

It should be noted that Gu Shihan was very clear about her own physical strength. Normally, ordinary falls and bumps could not hurt her in the slightest. However, this time, just a fall had broken her leg. This was really too unbelievable.

Despite the excruciating pain in his leg, he quickly popped a healing pill into his mouth and looked around.

Gu Shihan struggled to stand up, but each attempt triggered a new wave of even more intense pain.

However, she did not panic. Instead, she quickly calmed down and began to think of a solution.

"Xingbai, where are you? Are you alright?" Gu Shihan ignored the pain in her leg and anxiously called out the little fox's name.

"Hanhan, I'm in my spatial dimension, but for some reason I can't seem to get out. Could you try to get back in?"

Soon, Xingbai's voice, tinged with worry and tension, echoed deep within Gu Shihan's mind.

Hearing Xingbai's words, she knew it was alright and felt relieved. She then focused her mind and tried to enter the Moon Bracelet's space.

After two attempts, she found herself unable to enter and had no choice but to give up.

It seems the current situation is far more complicated than imagined, and we may have to rely on ourselves for everything.

Seemingly sensing Gu Shihan's anxiety and unease, Xingbai quickly comforted her, "Hanhan, don't worry too much. Although we can't be together for the time being, at least we can still communicate and connect like this. No matter what difficulties we encounter, as long as we work together and find solutions, we will definitely be able to overcome this crisis!"

"You're right, I must recover from my injuries before considering anything else!" Gu Shihan said through gritted teeth.

He closed his eyes and began to circulate his internal energy, guiding the medicinal power of the pill and the spiritual energy throughout his body to the injured area.

She dared not relax in the slightest, because she was in an unknown place, full of dangers, and had to be vigilant at all times.

Time passed by, and half an hour had gone by in the blink of an eye.

After a period of treatment, Gu Shihan could clearly feel that the injury to her leg was gradually improving. The wound, which was originally extremely painful, had now healed by more than half, and her mobility had basically recovered.

Moreover, as his injuries lessened, his discomfort with his surroundings also decreased, which is undoubtedly a welcome sign.

Gu Shihan slowly opened her eyes and looked up at the sky. She saw white mist spreading above her, like a thick white curtain enveloping the entire world. Looking around, all she could see was a vast expanse of reddish-brown land, barren and desolate, as if all life had been drained from it.

Not to mention the beautiful flowers and lush trees, it's hard to hear even a tiny insect or a clear bird song.

“Xingbai, I find this place rather eerie. It seems there’s not a trace of life. There are no fragrant flowers, no lush green grass; no animal calls, no flowing water. The only things there are this reddish earth and those jagged rocks. I really don’t know where this place is…”

Gu Shihan frowned, her face full of doubt as she confided her unease to Xingbai on her shoulder.

Xingbai blinked its bright, large eyes, gently patting its fluffy fox head with its little paws, looking equally bewildered: "Hanhan, now that you mention it, this scene does seem familiar. But I can't quite place where I've seen it before. Let me think... um..."

Xingbai tilted her head, trying hard to search for those blurry fragments of memory deep in her mind.

Gu Shihan took a deep breath and once again mobilized her internal energy, circulating it along her meridians for two full cycles.

As the exercise progressed, the wound on his leg, which had been throbbing slightly, gradually healed, leaving only a faint mark.

He slowly opened his eyes, stood up, stretched his legs, and felt that he had almost recovered. Then he began to carefully observe his surroundings.

What was truly disheartening was that as one day, two days, and three days passed, all that remained in sight was that dazzling crimson, as if the entire world was enveloped in this vibrant color.

Gu Shihan rubbed her temples in frustration, feeling utterly helpless.

This adventure not only failed to yield the legendary artifact, but also plunged me into this predicament—a truly disastrous outcome! But what should I do now? Where is the exit?
Looking up at the white mist above, I thought that perhaps that was the passage to leave this place.

She leaped with all her might, trying to grab the white mist that seemed so close at hand.

But just as she leaped into the air, a powerful force slammed her back to the ground.

It turns out that this place is off-limits to air travel, making it impossible to reach that mysterious white mist no matter what.

At this moment, Xingbai and Yutong, who were inside the space, were equally anxious. They paced back and forth, appearing extremely restless.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Xingbai; he seemed to have remembered something important.

“Red land…that’s it! I remember now!” Xingbai exclaimed excitedly, “This red land is very likely a fragment from the Moonblossom Bracelet. It must have been when Fairy Qingchen removed the Moonblossom Bracelet that she accidentally brought out a fragment, and this place should be one of them.”

Despite receiving such a clue, Xingbai's mood did not lighten much.

Over the years, although the Moon Bracelet has undergone numerous repairs and upgrades, the space remains unchanged, with no alternation of day and night, and no natural phenomena such as wind, rain, thunder, or lightning.

Could it be that the Moonbracelet is incomplete? We've found the Red Land now, but how can we restore it to the Moonbracelet?
