In the Purple Cloud Belt, there was neither day nor night; a constant light shone through the gap above.
Li Xiaonan searched for an exit, but unfortunately, apart from a few black holes clinging to the rock walls, there was nothing else to be found.
He glanced at the White Emperor, who lay motionless on the ground, not even twitching a finger, and sighed helplessly.
Continuing like this was truly not a solution. Without the nourishment of Celestial Aura, the Golden Yuan Power within him would only grow thinner.
Although it wasn't a major issue at the moment, in a few hundred years, when his True Essence was depleted, that would be the real dead end…
"Hey, what do you think?" Li Xiaonan squatted down and asked the White Emperor.
The White Emperor's long eyelashes fluttered slightly as his dark eyes slowly turned towards Li Xiaonan, lacking some of their usual dominance.
His throat moved slightly as he murmured, "Very good, just let me sleep." With that, he closed his eyes again.
Li Xiaonan scratched his head in frustration, causing his Carefree Bloodshed to fall to the ground with a crisp sound.
His pupils suddenly contracted as he muttered to himself, "Could it be… Yes, it must be this way!"
He grabbed the hairpin from the ground and twisted his long hair into a bun. Carefully extending his hand to the back of the White Emperor's neck, he gently grasped his shoulder.
The White Emperor frowned slightly and opened his eyes. "What are you doing?"
Li Xiaonan smiled lightly and said, "Of course we need to leave this place! You promised to protect me, so you must keep your word!"
He exerted a bit of strength, cradling the White Emperor in his arms.
The White Emperor frowned, a jolt of pain causing him to shudder involuntarily.
Li Xiaonan looked at the black hole in the rock wall and reassured, "Don't worry, it won't hurt for much longer. Just hold on a little longer..."
His voice was so soft that the White Emperor couldn't tell if he was speaking to himself or addressing him.
With a determined bite of his teeth, Li Xiaonan swiftly dove into the black hole.
The White Emperor was startled and didn't have time to voice his protest before being engulfed by darkness.
There was no light, no sound; only the warmth of the chest pressed against his face.
In the darkness, the White Emperor's cheeks flushed, unsure if it was from the warmth of that chest.
He lifted his head; although he could see nothing, he knew Li Xiaonan was right there.
Once inside the black hole, Li Xiaonan focused on activating his spiritual eye. Some silver dots floated restlessly in the dark, gradually swirling counterclockwise and twisting into a galaxy.
He glanced around and followed the pull of the starlight as he soared upward.
A beam of white light appeared at the end of the galaxy. Li Xiaonan's expression brightened as he faintly sensed the Golden Yuan Power within him.
He thought to himself: Soon! Very soon!
With a swift motion, Li Xiaonan appeared in a palace, holding the White Emperor. While it couldn't be described as resplendent, the entire hall was constructed from exquisite jade, a true marvel of craftsmanship.
What excited him even more was that in one corner of the hall stood a redwood display case, filled with what looked like artistic treasures—Celestial Artifacts.
Li Xiaonan wiped away the drool at the corner of his mouth, carefully set down the White Emperor, and walked towards the display case.
"Damn! This is amazing! I have to take it all!" He eagerly touched the Celestial Artifacts on the shelf, regardless of their grade or type, stuffing them all into his Soul Ring.
Once again, Li Xiaonan surveyed the modest palace, his gaze finally landing on a yellow cushion on the steps of the hall.
It looked quite ordinary, exuding an ancient and worn aura.
Li Xiaonan took a few steps forward to examine it closely. Although it was a soft yellow cloth cushion, when his spiritual eye swept over it, he saw a strange yellow light.
He stroked his chin and without hesitation stuffed the cushion into his Martial Soul Technique.
Meanwhile, the White Emperor let out a low groan. With a flip of his palms, his bones cracked loudly, indicating that he had already regained his strength.
He tossed a pill towards Li Xiaonan and said, "There's no Celestial Aura here. Take this Golden Elixir to replenish your True Essence."
"Okay." Li Xiaonan nodded and swallowed the pill, directly converting it into Golden Yuan Power. "Lord White Emperor, what do you think we should do next?"
The White Emperor glanced at Li Xiaonan and replied, "Don't call me White Emperor anymore; just use my name."
Li Xiaonan raised an eyebrow and said, "Soulmate?"
"That's my nickname; my original name is White Star Soul," the White Emperor replied, a slight smile playing on his lips as he gazed at Li Xiaonan.
Li Xiaonan was taken aback, thinking to himself: What the hell! What’s with that seductive gaze? Is he seeing another man through my body?
No way! I’m not going to be your best buddy!
He cleared his throat and said, "I think I'll just call you Lord White Emperor..."
White Star Soul frowned slightly, casting a glance at Li Xiaonan before huffing, "Suit yourself!"
Li Xiaonan chuckled lightly and fell silent, carefully observing the black holes on the white jade wall.
The black hole that had flown in earlier had vanished, leaving two behind, but no one knew where these two black holes would lead.
Li Xiaonan paced back and forth while the White Emperor focused on recovering his Celestial Energy, not bothering to engage him in conversation.
As time ticked by, Li Xiaonan suddenly slapped his forehead and muttered to himself, "Stupid! How did I not think of that!"
His figure flickered, and two clones appeared in front of him.
The first clone shot him a glare and said, "You only think of us when there's something good going on. Now you want us to be your guinea pigs... sigh, what a hard life..."
"Quit whining! Do you think you’ll die if you don’t complain? Just go already; I’ll wait for you here!" Li Xiaonan retorted irritably.
"Got it!" Number Two waved his messy bangs and continued, "You should tidy up the stuff here. It would be best to throw everything into the Seven-Level Pagoda. I have a feeling we're going to make a big profit this time."
With that, the two flew towards different black holes.
At that moment, White Star Soul awakened from his meditation. He leaped in front of Li Xiaonan and grabbed his collar, urgently asking, "How did you learn the Clone Technique?"
"You're choking me... Let go!"
White Star Soul took a deep breath. Although his expression didn't soften at all, he loosened his grip slightly. He asked again, "How did you learn the Clone Technique? Who taught you?"
Li Xiaonan rolled his eyes at him and thought for a moment before replying, "You taught me."
"What?" White Star Soul was taken aback. "When did I ever teach you?"
"Just last time! After your clone was destroyed by me..."
White Star Soul's handsome face flushed red as he released his grip. "When did you ever destroy my clone..."
"Hmph... Tsundere."
"What did you say?"
"Nothing... Oh no..."
"What? Did something happen to your clone?"
Li Xiaonan furrowed his brow. "I don't know... I can't sense them anymore... It's like the connection has been severed... Lord White Emperor, we..."
White Star Soul interjected, "Staying here isn't a solution; let's go!"
He grabbed Li Xiaonan and swiftly stepped into a black hole, this time the journey was much shorter.
The two felt a flash before their eyes and found themselves in a Meditation Room, where the fragrance of the soil mingled with the scent of celestial herbs.
Li Xiaonan's eyes widened as he beheld mushrooms larger than his face, pure and pristine Snow Lotuses, and a flower with seven-colored petals. Although he didn't recognize it, his intuition told him it was something valuable.
He greedily inhaled the sweet air, licking his lips. "What a treasure! Truly a treasure!"
However, White Star Soul's expression turned cold. "You big-headed fool, there’s no Celestial Aura here... How did these celestial herbs grow?"
Li Xiaonan shrugged dismissively. "Who cares how they grew? As long as they are celestial herbs, that's all that matters! Let's collect them all!" He reached out to pluck one.
White Star Soul grabbed his hand to stop him. "You little brat, you're really reckless with nature!"
"What’s wrong?"
"This Five Zhi Hundred Flowers is extremely rare even in the Celestial Realm. If you pull it up by the roots, won't you be destroying it?"
Li Xiaonan nodded slowly, looking puzzled. "Then what do you suggest we do?"
White Star Soul tossed his hair back proudly. "Of course, we should move them into my Leisurely Clouds and Wild Cranes."
"Oh... please..." Li Xiaonan extended a hand and sidestepped.
White Star Soul took off the jade pendant from his waist and waved it towards the celestial herbs on the ground!
One second, two seconds, three seconds... Time passed slowly, and after a full five minutes, nothing happened. White Star Soul remained in his awkward stance, bowing with one hand raised.
Li Xiaonan scratched his nose and chuckled foolishly, "Um... Lord White Emperor, while this pose is quite dashing and suits your temperament perfectly, it seems... it's been too long, hasn't it?"
"Uh-huh!" White Star Soul cleared his throat and waved the Leisurely Clouds and Wild Cranes again, saying, "Collect!"
A cool breeze suddenly blew in from nowhere, causing the celestial herbs to sway as if mocking White Star Soul.
Li Xiaonan shook his head helplessly and grinned at the herbs, saying, "Good kids, I will take good care of you!"
With that, he uprooted them one by one and tossed them into the Soul Ring.
At that moment, Li Xiaonan noticed that there were more Celestial Stones in the Soul Ring; he instantly understood it was the work of his clones.
Fortunately, with the Soul Ring as a shared treasure chest, he wouldn't even know if his clones were alive or dead otherwise.
After finishing up with the celestial herbs, Li Xiaonan proudly clapped his hands and wrapped an arm around the stiffened White Star Soul. "Little Soul, you know, the most important thing in life is to be happy. Alright, let's head to the next black hole!"
White Star Soul twitched his lips a couple of times as he was dragged by Li Xiaonan into the only black hole present here.
As the darkness before him was replaced by light, Li Xiaonan finally saw two living beings: one was a sika deer, and the other...
Hmm, is this thing even human?
A skeleton?
"Heh heh, do you think I wouldn't recognize you just because you changed your appearance?"
Damn! The skeleton spoke!
Li Xiaonan tightened his grip, fiercely pinching the White Star Soul, his bright eyes fixed ahead without blinking.
The Sika Deer smiled lightly. Although it still had the same appearance, Li Xiaonan felt as if he was seeing another person.
He said, "Senior, it's been a long time. How have you been?"
"Hmph! False pretenses! I told you before, no one can escape the cycle of fate. You! Yun Xinghe is destined to remain in this time and space!"
Li Xiaonan frowned. Yun Xinghe? Isn't that the Sika Deer?
