“If the force behind my predicament is so powerful, why not just kill me directly?”
“Wouldn’t that solve everything? Why go through all this trouble?”
“If you ask who in this world wants to get rid of you the most, it would definitely be at the top,” Li Huoyù replied. “But the problem is, it can’t do anything about it.”
“Why?” Fang Yu narrowed his eyes and asked, “Since it’s so powerful, why can’t it kill me?”
“The planar laws, Earth’s will, and whatever is on you—once it makes a move, the rules are utterly broken.” Lihuoyu said, “By then, the attacks it faces won’t come from just you.”
“This principle is the same as your situation.”
“You’re talking about the Eye of Insight on me, aren’t you?” Fang Yu’s eyes flickered as he asked.
“Everything, including the Eye of Insight, you yourself, and all else, is in a state of limitation.” said Lihuoyu.
“You mean…?” Fang Yu’s eyes flashed.
“Don’t you understand? It’s the same reason why I said it wouldn’t dare to act on its own,” Lihuoyù calmly explained. “The Insightful Eye, Great Dao Spirit Body, and so on, all have to actively limit their power to avoid being retaliated against by dimensional laws, Earth’s will, and so on.”
“Because, when everything about you is limitless”
“The very fact that you exist on this plane is a grave violation of the rules. Besides facing all sorts of backlash, you will also be banished from here,” Lì Huǒyù said.
Hearing Lihuo Yu’s words, Fang Yu’s eyes widened.
The meaning of “Lǐhuǒyù” is that his current strength is still greatly limited.
Once he was completely released, he could no longer stay on Earth.
That is to say, his true strength has actually reached the level of ascension.
But why is his realm always stuck at the Qi Refining Stage?
“This is part of the limitations, because it’s too powerful, so it has to be weakened to avoid detection by both the planar laws and Earth’s will.” Li Huoyu said, seeming to exhale, “I’ve talked too much today, there really isn’t anything else I can say.”
And Fang Yu, at this moment, his head had already exploded.
To him, what Li Huoyu said was like answering his ultimate questions that had plagued him for thousands of years.
Why am I stuck at the Qi Refining stage? <<<
Because he was simply too powerful, he could only remain in the Qi Refining stage, thus avoiding the dimensional laws and Earth’s will.
Could this be the reason why he’s been unable to break through the Qi Refining stage? <<<
Fang Yu was stunned on the spot, his mind no longer focused on the predicament before him.
Thousands of thoughts surged through my mind, a whirlwind of emotions swirling within me.
For so many years, he had continuously broken through in the Qi Refining stage until he reached ten thousand layers, yet he still couldn’t touch the Foundation Establishment stage.
In the first two millennia of his life, he still held out hope for breaking through to the Qi Condensation Stage. But as time went on, his expectations dwindled until now he didn’t even care anymore.
But the doubt remained in Fang Yu’s heart.
Why is it that he alone has never broken through the Qi Refinement Stage, yet he lives forever, possessing a lifespan that even tribulation transcending cultivators lack?
And today, Li Huoyu finally gave Fangyu an explanation.
He remained in the Qi Refining Stage because he was too powerful.
So powerful that it needs to circumvent Earth’s will and dimensional laws to remain on Earth.

Why could other cultivators ascend freely, while he was restricted to the Qi Refining stage and had to remain on Earth?

As soon as this doubt arose, Fang Yu remembered what his master Da Tian had said to him back then.

“Little Feather, you possess the best talent for cultivation, but it’s a shame I realized this too late. This is my fault as a teacher.”
“If you were able to cultivate like a normal cultivator, you would have ascended long ago.”
At that time, Fang Yu didn’t understand Dao Tian’s words.
But now, combining what Li Huo Yu said, he finally understood.
He already possessed the ability to ascend.
However, some people don’t want him to ascend so quickly and have placed many restrictions on him.
And this person, ought to be the one who has been sending him things all along.
“Let me stay on Earth, delaying my ascension, yet constantly sending me all sorts of legendary artifacts,” Fang Yu’s eyes flickered, thinking about the tremendous changes in the world over the past two years.
Spirit awakening, alien races rising, all kinds of ancient creatures are showing signs of appearing.
All of this serves as proof that something major has happened.
Before, he thought that the rise of alien races was already the biggest event, a devastating blow to humanity.
But now it seems that’s not the case.
Because the enemy was just a foreign race, Fang Yu dealt with them easily, not enough to make that person keep sending Fang Yu various powerful artifacts.
The person wanted Fang Yu to do something even more difficult.
Just as Dao Tian said before, the opponent is far stronger than Fang Yu imagined.
“Perhaps even the Holy Institution’s will is not the ultimate goal,” Fang Yu mused, his eyes narrowed.
Thinking of this, his mood calmed down a lot.
After nearly five thousand years of questions, the answers came, but his feelings remained unchanged.
Because the biggest doubt still remains.
What exactly does the person behind the scenes want Fang Yu to do? What are the restrictions placed on Fang Yu, and when will they be fully lifted?
“Master, you should focus on finding a way out of this predicament first,” Jihan Zilei said. “I think you’ll get the answers you seek in due time.”
“Well said.” Fang Yu’s eyes narrowed, his thoughts returning to reality.
The words of the Frozen Tears are alright.
Now, there’s no need to overthink it.
Because lately, Fang Yu could clearly feel that he was getting more and more information, unlike before when he knew nothing.
The frequency of speaking to Linfire Jade and Frost Tears has increased.
This is a good omen.
It is clear that the existence was gradually easing restrictions, slowly letting Fang Yu know more information.
So, Fang Yu doesn’t need to be anxious; he will eventually find out everything.
Turn your gaze back to the current predicament.
“The self-created laws are indeed quite powerful, with no loopholes to be found.” Fang Yu stared at the ancient city ahead, carefully scrutinizing every aspect of its existence.
In fact, there aren’t many rules governing the entire space.
What is clearly visible is only the power of spatial laws.
“It’s pointless to sever the Eye of Insight, it can repair itself infinitely.” Fang Yu frowned.
The endless loop predicament before her is indeed a challenge for Yu.
What was even more crucial was that he had no sense of how much time had passed relative to the outside world.
Having a year stolen from me in the Arctic was a huge lesson.
This time, I absolutely have to figure out a way to get out of here as soon as possible.
“The Eye of Insight is useless, and brute force only results in the space repairing itself.” Fang Yu looked around, his brows furrowing deeper.
