"Don't! Don't! I'll tell you everything!" Bloodshade pleaded, crawling on the ground.
Li Xiaonan examined his slender fingers, as if Nine Yang True Fire could erupt from them at any moment. He said calmly, "I am not a patient person."
Bloodshade's frail body trembled involuntarily as he replied, "Eighty thousand miles to the upper right of here, there is a purple-glowing ring-shaped nebula. That was once the battlefield of the Celestial Buddha War, and it holds astonishing treasures!"
Li Xiaonan paused for a moment, his Mental Power focusing in his eyes as he scanned Bloodshade up and down twice.
"Big Brother, is she lying? Should I eat her?" Xiaoyao transformed into human form as well, dressed in white like snow, his eyes filled with a chilling intensity.
Hearing the voice, Bloodshade slightly raised his eyes, but upon seeing Xiaoyao's gaze, his pupils constricted sharply, and he quickly lowered his head.
Li Xiaonan narrowed his eyes and after a long moment said, "She is not lying..."
However, this girl has ulterior motives!
Celestial Buddha War Ruins?
That is definitely a good place!
Historical records indicate that after that great battle, Buddhism and Taoism declined, and the Immortal Path also faltered because most of the texts vanished without being passed down.
One can only imagine how devastating the Celestial Buddha War was! But for the Celestial Buddha War Ruins, the brutality of that day means abundant treasures today.
Treasures are something that can transform me from a poor nobody into a wealthy and handsome man instantly!
Yet countless immortals have been searching for these Celestial Buddha War Ruins for millennia without success. Now to learn of its existence from a Celestial Artifact is truly a twist of fate; destiny is unpredictable.
Li Xiaonan's lips curled slightly as he glanced at Bloodshade. He raised his right hand, and a ball of Nine Yang True Fire surged toward Bloodshade.
"Ah!" She looked up in a daze, her eyes filled with panic, as a heart-wrenching scream was drowned out by the Nine Yang True Fire.
Bloodshade would once again ring like a string of bells.
She cursed angrily, "Liar! You're a big liar! I curse you to die a terrible death! A terrible death!"
Li Xiaonan boredly dug at his ears and blew lightly on his pinky finger.
He then said to Carefree, "I'll make you a pendant with this Medium-Grade Immortal Artifact. As for this spirit, you can do as you please—devour her or enslave her—but she must remain under your control!"
Carefree licked his lips, feeling delighted, and grinned foolishly, "Thank you, big brother!" He then transformed back into his original form.
Li Xiaonan smiled slightly, grasped the air with both hands, and clapped the Carefree Fan and Bloodshade together, shouting, "Consolidate!"
"Ding ding dang dang!" Bloodshade struggled uneasily but had no ability to counterattack against the combined force of Li Xiaonan and the Carefree Fan.
In a flash of light, the Carefree Fan transformed back into human form, followed by a beautiful girl in red who appeared several years younger.
"I bit her a few times because she wouldn't listen, so she looks younger now," the Carefree Fan explained immediately, sensing Li Xiaonan's confusion from his gaze.
Li Xiaonan nodded, gently stroked Bloodshade's head, and lifted her chin. He saw that Bloodshade's blood-red eyes were filled with mist, making her look particularly pitiful.
"Bloodshade, now we are all in the same boat. As long as I live, you can live well. Carefree is like me; he prefers softness over hardness. As long as you behave and listen to him, he will treat you well."
Li Xiaonan then patted the Carefree Fan's shoulder and said, "You and Seven Treasures should continue your training in the Seven-Level Pagoda!"
The Carefree Fan immediately understood and nodded, taking the hand of a girl in purple beside him before disappearing in a flash.
Mei Qingdan suddenly stood up but then slumped to the ground, murmuring to herself, "It's gone... my Seven Treasures Gourd... there's no connection..."
Li Xiaonan stood up and patted Mei Qingdan on the shoulder, smiling, "Don't worry, Grandpa. Your Seven Treasures will be back soon. In just three to five years, it will be promoted to a Medium-Grade Immortal Artifact!"
"That fast? My uncle told me it would take at least another five hundred years! You really are an impressive grandson!"
Suddenly, Li Xiaonan's expression changed, and he said seriously, "Grandpa, Zhao Hai, I need to discuss something important with you..."
He then explained everything about the Celestial Buddha War Ruins, leaving Mei Qingdan and Zhao Hai stunned.
Mei Qingdan rested his chin on his hand and said, "Xiao Nan, if what you say is true, that's incredible! I can't make this decision alone; I need to report this to the Mei Family. What are your plans?"
"I want to inform all the Immortal Emperors."
"Good! I suspect that people from the Mei Family will also send someone. Xiao Nan, when do you plan to set off?"
"I will ask for half a year from the Immortal Emperors. Is that enough time for you to prepare?"
"That’s sufficient. A round trip will only take about a month. Here is my Mei Family badge." Mei Qingdan handed Li Xiaonan a hexagonal star-shaped emblem and pinned it to his clothing.
"With this, you can freely obtain elixirs in any Cloud Pavilion within the Immortal Realm. Also, this Jade Eye Tablet contains some methods for refining elixirs; take it with you. We’ll meet again in six months."
After saying this, Mei Qingdan prepared to teleport away when Li Xiaonan grabbed his sleeve and said, "Grandpa, don’t forget the Seven Treasures! Wait a moment!"
Li Xiaonan called out to the carefree figure of Xiaoyao and the Seven Treasures who were happily cultivating in the Seven-Level Pagoda and briefly explained the situation.
Xiaoyao nodded, gently hugged the Seven Treasures with a silly smile, and transformed into a jade hairpin that twisted part of Li Xiaonan's long hair into an elegant bun.
The top of the hairpin was adorned with a string of small bells that swayed lightly with Li Xiaonan's movements but made no sound at all.
After Mei Qingdan left, Zhao Hai asked in confusion, "Bodhisattva, I don't understand why you would share such news about the treasure with the Immortal Emperors?"
Li Xiaonan smiled lightly and replied, "Interests and risks are always proportional. This time, you should find a way to avoid going to the Celestial Buddha Ruins. It's time to let Ni Zhi escalate the conflict between the Azure and Yellow Emperors."
Three days later, when Li Xiaonan shared this news with the Four Emperors, everyone was shocked.
The Azure Emperor exclaimed, "Xiao Nan, is what you said true?"
He nodded and bowed to the Crimson Emperor, saying, "I must thank Lord Crimson Emperor for the Celestial Artifact; otherwise, I wouldn't have known this news."
The Crimson Emperor's face twitched with surprise; he clearly hadn't expected that an inconspicuous Medium-Grade Immortal Artifact would reveal such a shocking secret.
He raised his head and looked at Li Xiaonan with a meaningful glance, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes.
Li Xiaonan pretended not to notice anything and continued with a faint smile, "My lords, do you think this news is true?"
The Emperor stood with his hands clasped behind his back, gazing softly into the distance. He spoke quietly, "I have indeed heard of the Purple Cloud Belt. It is desolate and uninhabited, often accompanied by black holes and violent storms—harsh natural phenomena."
He smiled slightly and summarized it in four words: "It is a perilous place!"
The Crimson Emperor rubbed his bald head and thought fiercely, "Whether it's true or not doesn't matter. We've been cultivating for so many years; we're bored to death. Why not find some fun and go take a look!"
The White Emperor nodded in agreement, saying, "That's right! Count me in!"
"Good! Since that's settled, let's set off immediately!" The Azure Emperor rubbed his hands together excitedly.
Li Xiaonan wished he could immediately silence the Azure Emperor.
The White Emperor was clearly speaking to me; why did you interrupt?
He chuckled shyly and said, "Gentlemen, may I ask if you could wait a moment?"
"What is it?" the Azure Emperor asked, taken aback.
"When I received this news, my grandfather was also present... so..."
"Who is your grandfather?" the Azure Emperor replied dismissively.
The Yellow Emperor, however, laughed and said, "You must be a descendant of the Mei Family, right? Well, the Mei Family are all masters in alchemy. With them around, our supplies for this journey will be complete."
Li Xiaonan clasped his hands together and bowed to the Yellow Emperor, saying, "Thank you, my lord."
The other two remained silent, tacitly accepting the matter.
Li Xiaonan quickly discerned that among the Four Emperors, the Yellow Emperor was the strongest and had the most significant backing.
After the Rookie Tournament concluded without any suspense or excitement, Li Xiaonan returned to Azure Wankstar with the Azure Emperor. He was too lazy to chat with the Azure Emperor and dove straight into the underground Meditation Room.
Half a year may not seem long for an ordinary person, but for a Cultivator, it was merely a fleeting moment.
During these six months, Li Xiaonan had not relaxed for even a moment, constantly maintaining his rigorous training.
The cracks on the golden core within his Yuan Ying were growing larger, and it seemed he was on the verge of breaking through to Yuan Ying but just couldn't manage it.
He awoke from his meditation with a sigh of frustration and slowly turned his gaze toward the White Jade Gate. He murmured to himself, "It seems I still need Obedient Dragon II..."
As Li Xiaonan pushed open the door, Fisher's Song, curled up nearby and napping, suddenly woke up and leaped into his arms, shyly saying, "My lord, you're out!"
"Yes," he replied. "I will be away with Lord Azure Emperor for some time. This Meditation Room is now in your care; make sure to train well!"
"Ah? Where are you going, my lord?"
"To a very dangerous place, not suitable for you to accompany me. You should stay here obediently," Li Xiaonan said gently as he naturally raised his hand to lightly pat her frail back.
After more than half a year of companionship, Li Xiaonan had gradually gotten used to having a little tail following him wherever he went.
Mainly because Fisher's Song was very obedient; ever since Li Xiaonan mentioned that he liked to see legs, that sapphire blue fish tail had never appeared again.
"Will you be in danger, my lord? Fisher's Song wants to follow you and protect you!"
Li Xiaonan couldn't help but laugh, gently ruffling Fisher's Song's smooth hair. "With your current abilities, how could you protect me? Besides, there are four Immortal Emperors accompanying me, so there's no need to worry."
Fisher's Song nodded and softly said, "Fisher's Song will wait for you to come back."
Li Xiaonan smiled faintly, clenched his right fist and held it in front of her. "You've been very well-behaved lately, so I have a gift for you."
As he spoke, he opened his hand, and a necklace swayed into view before Fisher's Song, with a silver hollow pendant cradling a blue pearl.
"Ice Sea Profound Spirit Pearl!" Fisher's Song exclaimed excitedly.
"I wanted to give this to you a long time ago. I've been busy cultivating since I returned, which delayed this matter. Although I can't take you with me this time, seeing the pearl is like seeing me. Be good and wait for my return," Li Xiaonan said with a smile as he fastened the necklace around Fisher's Song's neck.
"Thank you, my lord! I will cherish it!" Fisher's Song tightly grasped the pearl, so much so that Li Xiaonan didn't notice the light emanating from the Ice Sea Profound Spirit Pearl.
