The universe is vast, and as time flows, only space remains eternally unchanged...
Li Xiaonan silently recited the incantation in his heart, his hands shifting through a series of intricate gestures. Finally, he formed the last hand seal, his ten fingers aligned, palms raised, and a blue halo flickered into existence between them.
At that moment, streaks of blue light climbed up the Spirit Tree on his Spirit Platform, leaving behind peculiar symbols that emitted a faint glow wherever they touched.
Li Xiaonan took a deep breath and awakened from his meditation.
"Wait? Why is Great-Grandfather piloting the Star Prism?" He glanced at the Four Emperors, noticing their disheveled appearances as if they had suffered some sort of setback.
The Yellow Emperor's eyes suddenly widened as he took control from the Sika Deer.
The Sika Deer grinned at Li Xiaonan, casually swallowed a pill, and then sat down to meditate and recover his Celestial Energy.
Li Xiaonan scratched his head in confusion when suddenly he heard the voice of the Azure Emperor in his mind.
"Little brother, your Great-Grandfather is no ordinary person; his strength is nearly comparable to that of the Crimson Emperor. Although you are family, we must remain cautious."
Li Xiaonan immediately replied, "Yes, big brother!" Yet in his heart, he thought differently.
It would be better to guard against the Sika Deer than against you!
The Yellow Emperor's serious expression suddenly relaxed. "The pressure has lessened significantly; it seems we have passed through the danger zone."
Curious, Li Xiaonan walked over to the Yellow Emperor's side and asked, "Sir, how do we operate this Star Prism?"
With a flick of his right hand, the Yellow Emperor sent a Jade Eye Tablet into Li Xiaonan's grasp.
He said, "Embed the Star Compass into the disk ahead, and you can move according to the direction. Here are the hand signals for operating the Star Prism; you should learn them first."
Li Xiaonan nodded, his consciousness entering the device. The Star Prism had a total of twelve hand signals, which essentially controlled movement in all directions—forward, backward, left, right, up, and down—as well as speed.
Having previously learned about Spatial Magic Path, these twelve hand signals felt like child's play.
With just a glance, Li Xiaonan mastered them.
He continuously changed the twelve hand signals and couldn't help but reminisce about the aircraft in the Seven-Level Pagoda.
The Underworld's creations were indeed user-friendly; a joystick was definitely more convenient than hand signals. He wondered if aircraft could be used here.
As he was lost in thought, the White Emperor suddenly leaned forward to observe his constantly changing hands and remarked, "You’re learning pretty fast!"
"I've already mastered it. Come over and give it a try," the Yellow Emperor said with a gentle smile, bringing his hands together to halt the Star Prism in mid-air.
Li Xiaonan rubbed his hands together, excitement lighting up his face as he assumed the proper stance and took control.
Suddenly, the scene before him transformed.
The universe remained the universe, and the planets were still there; only now there was a silvery beam of light leading to a swirling sea of purple clouds at one end.
Li Xiaonan immediately understood that this thin thread was the path for travel.
He muttered to himself: This rocket even has a GPS system—impressive!
The Crimson Emperor also awakened from his meditation, surprised as he exclaimed, "What are you all doing? Why did you hand over control to this kid?"
The White Emperor clicked his tongue and shot a glance at him. "With me and Huang Yan protecting you, what is there to fear?"
The Yellow Emperor smiled and said, "The strange pulling force has disappeared, but we don't know when it might reappear. Having another person to control things is a good thing."
As soon as he finished speaking, the planets outside the Star Prism suddenly flew backward, clearly indicating that Li Xiaonan had begun to take action.
He bit his lip in excitement, his hands occasionally changing hand seals as he carefully piloted the Star Prism along its trajectory toward the Purple Cloud Belt.
He couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Up, down, left, right, abab..."
The White Emperor and the Yellow Emperor exchanged glances and nodded simultaneously, sitting beside Li Xiaonan, ready to take over at any moment.
In the blink of an eye, an hour passed. Li Xiaonan's consciousness swept through his body, and he noticed that the golden flow of Golden Yuan Power within his meridians had become quite thin.
He couldn't help but curse under his breath, "Damn it! This Star Prism is too exhausting. Even if the Yellow Emperor gave me one, I wouldn't be able to use it!"
Just as he was about to ask the Yellow Emperor beside him to take over, a voice suddenly echoed in his mind.
"Kid, you've drained all the Celestial Energy in your body."
Li Xiaonan turned his head in surprise and saw a Sika deer smiling at him.
After a moment of thought, he understood his Great-Grandfather's intention.
There was no faster way to increase one's cultivation than by continuously depleting True Essence and then replenishing it.
He smiled gratefully at the Sika deer and once again formed a hand seal for acceleration. The Golden Yuan Power within him quickly ignited.
An hour later, Li Xiaonan finally exhausted his strength and handed over the driving control to the Yellow Emperor, collapsing onto the ground and gasping for air.
The Reindeer chuckled and grabbed his arms, dragging him to the rear of the Star Prism. With a flick of his fingers, a pill appeared at his fingertips.
Taking advantage of Li Xiaonan's open mouth as he gasped for breath, he flicked the elixir into his mouth.
Li Xiaonan let out a whimper, nearly choking.
He sat up abruptly, pounding his chest with force, frowning as he exclaimed, "Great-Grandfather, are you trying to kill your own Great-Grandfather?"
The Reindeer smiled sweetly, wearing an expression that was charming yet deadly. "I'm just steaming it! Hurry up and take it while it's hot; don't waste time!"
Li Xiaonan twitched at the corner of his mouth and used the last of his Golden Yuan Power to dissolve the elixir in his stomach.
A rich fragrance spread from his lower abdomen, gradually permeating into his mind.
Two rosy hues immediately appeared on Li Xiaonan's fair face, as if he had drunk too much.
In the empty Meridian, golden True Essence slowly began to condense, gathering in a specific direction towards the Dantian.
The Yuan Ying in the Dantian opened its eyes, its bright gaze shining like substance before the Lotus Seat.
Clad in Spirit Armor, Yuan Ying directed the Golden Yuan Power. The mist-like gold continuously condensed and compressed until it transformed into a droplet of golden liquid that fell beneath the Lotus Seat.
The Golden Yuan Power kept turning into liquid, and in no time at all, a pool of golden water formed beneath the Lotus Seat.
Incredible! What kind of elixir was that? It could actually condense Golden Yuan Power to the point of becoming liquid!
Li Xiaonan awoke from his meditation, feeling an abundance of energy coursing through him.
He looked at the Sika Deer and said, "Thank you, Great-Grandfather! That elixir was incredible!"
"Of course! I personally crafted it; it's not some ordinary item. You’re lucky to have received it, little one. That was a Third-Grade Pill—something an average immortal would never get in their lifetime," the Sika Deer replied, crossing its arms with pride.
"Great-Grandfather, do you have any First-Grade Pills?" Li Xiaonan asked, rubbing his hands together with a hint of eagerness.
The Sika Deer shot him a glance and said, "Yes, but you can't handle it."
"Why not?"
"With your current cultivation level, a First-Grade Pill would be poison for you. Not only can you not refine it, but the pill would turn you into a balloon and then pop inside you. You'd be dead."
Watching the Sika Deer’s exaggerated performance, Li Xiaonan couldn't help but twitch his mouth slightly and let out a couple of awkward coughs to end this rather uninteresting conversation.
"We're approaching the Purple Cloud Belt. There's a Heavenly Gang Hurricane ahead, and we can't pass through the Star Prism. We'll have to fly over ourselves," the Yellow Emperor reminded them.
The six of them hung in the void of space, devoid of oxygen, water, or light.
But for cultivators, these life-sustaining resources could be discarded.
Li Xiaonan gazed at the swirling purple nebula ahead and murmured, "It's beautiful."
The Crimson Emperor snorted lightly and said, "The more beautiful something is, the more dangerous it becomes."
"Right now, everything seems calm, but as soon as we take a step forward, we'll enter the hurricane. There are also many black holes around us. Everyone must stay alert and be extremely careful."
Everyone instinctively turned their gaze toward Li Xiaonan.
The latter chuckled and said, "I will obediently follow everyone, absolutely organized and disciplined, not curious, and won't wander off!"
If it weren't for Li Xiaonan being the mastermind behind this treasure hunt, these powerful figures from the Celestial Realm would never have agreed to bring a Celestial Being level immortal along for the adventure.
The White Emperor slightly raised the corner of his mouth, as if to say who would believe that, while the expressions of the other immortals remained unchanged—still serious and solemn.
The Yellow Emperor stated, "I will take the lead, followed by the White Emperor, the Crimson Emperor, the Azure Emperor, Mei Xianyou, and Xiao Nan."
With that, the six of them plunged into the Purple Cloud Belt.
Although Li Xiaonan was at the back and was hardly affected by the hurricane, the wind mixed with sand and gravel hitting his face still caused him discomfort.
Through their journey together, Li Xiaonan finally recognized the difference between himself and the Immortal Emperors.
In the past, he had thought about taking a few covert actions to slowly cultivate his strength and influence before avenging his Father-in-law and Mother of the Mountain.
But now he realized that goal was far too distant from where he stood at present!
As he silently gritted his teeth to keep up with everyone, he felt Bloodshade's call.
"Master, you really came here? Oh my!"
"This is the treasure you mentioned, right? What's wrong?"
Bloodshade immediately sensed Li Xiaonan's displeasure in his tone and hurriedly replied, "No! There's nothing wrong... The Celestial Buddha War Ruins are located on the main star of the Purple Cloud Belt. Master needs to find a way to get to the innermost part."
"Mm." Li Xiaonan acknowledged and conveyed the message to everyone using a voice technique.
He continued to ask, "Bloodshade, how did you come to know this secret?"
"My previous master participated in the Celestial Buddha Ruins. After she died, I fell into a deep sleep until three hundred years ago when someone entered the Celestial Buddha Ruins. Then an explosion occurred, and I was blown away by the shockwave. By the time I regained consciousness, it had already been ten years."
Listening to Bloodshade's account, Li Xiaonan found it simple yet filled with significant information.
First, who was the person that intruded into the ruins?
Then, why did the explosion happen?
How could the Celestial Artifact be blown away and escape from the ruins?
Moreover, if it was found by the Crimson Emperor, it certainly wasn't near the Purple Cloud Belt.
Li Xiaonan couldn't help but frown and ask, "Where were you when you regained consciousness?"
"Hong Wuxing, about a hundred thousand miles from here."
Li Xiaonan nodded. A hundred thousand miles in space is not comparable to a hundred thousand miles on the ground; the units cannot be converted. However, this number only indicates one thing—it's very far from the Purple Cloud Belt!
He suddenly glanced at the black hole beside him and squinted his eyes.
Suddenly, he heard the voice of the Yellow Emperor in his mind, "The hurricane is too strong; we can't get close to the center! I'll use the Celestial Artifact to try to disrupt the airflow. You all take advantage of the chaos and get in quickly!"
