The Japanese historian Ino Okifu identifies Emperor Jimmu of Japan with Xu Fu. In Xuzhou, there is a Xu Fu Research Institute attached to Xuzhou Teachers College.

Xu sailed for several years without finding the mountain. In 219 BC, Xu Fu was sent with three thousand virgin boys and girls to retrieve the elixir of life from the immortals on the Mount Penglai, including Anqi Sheng, who was purportedly a magician who was already a thousand years old.
