It was not just Shen Binglan, Wanyan Xiyin, Gaogu, and Ni'ai who were moved by the sheer madness and absurdity of the total ascension plan; even Mu Feiping, who had witnessed many secret realms and spectacular sights, was deeply shaken after hearing Yu explain it.
"How did it fail?" Ni'ai asked impatiently.
Yu let out a soft sigh. "Back then, our Xianyu Empire possessed the number one Spirit Eye of the Mountain and Sea Realm. It was our greatest reliance, the foundation upon which I and the various Earth Immortals dared to execute the total ascension plan. It is a pity, however... even after we drained almost all the spiritual liquid from that first Spirit Eye, we still could not empower the Xianyu capital to break through the realm boundaries, let alone maintain the inter-dimensional arrays required for the capital to navigate the endless starry void and locate a higher-order realm."
