Flying in the sky, Liu Ke’er asked, “If there really isn’t anything good in Tree Demon’s hands, will you burn the island to ashes in the end?”

“Actually, I was just trying to scare him. Even if he really didn’t hand over the item in the end, I still don’t need to kill him.” Li Qing said, “With my strength, I can completely capture that Tree Demon alive. At that time, wouldn’t any of its treasures fall into my hands?”

“Then Tree Demon has made the right choice. Otherwise, after you capture him alive, it won’t be as simple as a Spirit Blue Flower. Instead, all the treasures he has accumulated over the years will fall into your hands.” Xiao Bai smiled.

“This time, my luck is not bad. I obtained a Spirit Blue Flower. This is also an item that has an effect on the unity of heaven and man. I hope it will succeed.” Li Qing said.

They flew all the way to the center of the spiritual sea. Wherever they passed, some demonic beasts attacked Li Qing one after another. In the end, they were all suppressed and annihilated by him with one hand.

Of course, there were also some very powerful demonic beasts that Li Qing would bypass in order to avoid trouble.

After flying for a whole day, Li Qing finally arrived at his destination. In front of him was the center of the Spiritual Sea. There were a large number of terrifying Demon Saints living inside. Even with Li Qing’s strength, if he rashly barged in, he would probably be torn to pieces by countless demonic beasts.

Not to mention, there were three demon gods living in the center of the spiritual sea!

“Just like before, fly over from the sky. Little White, use your innate divine ability to conceal our aura.” Li Qing said.

Xiao Bai waved his hand and concealed everyone’s aura. Li Qing flew ten thousand feet into the sky. He was so far away from the surface of the sea that he believed that even Demon God-level existences wouldn’t be able to sense them.

They flew towards the center of the Spiritual Sea. A moment later, a shocking scene appeared.

A huge abyss suddenly appeared on the distant sea level, swallowing all the seawater nearby. In the center of the abyss, there was a huge pillar of light that shot straight into the clouds, connecting the sea to the sky, as if it was a pillar of heaven and earth.

If one looked closely, they would discover that this was not a pillar of light, but an energy beam emitted from the abyss, as if it was going to pierce through the heavens.

“Here we are!” Li Qing said.

Looking up along this beam of energy, one would discover an illusory white cloud at the top. It was flawless and white, covering an area of nearly ten kilometers in the sky.

This was the place where Xiao Bai lived back then, the Cloud Small and Medium Realm.

Normally, the white clouds in the sky had shapes from afar, but if they were closer, they would only be a large amount of water vapor. There was nothing unusual about them.

However, this white cloud was different. It really seemed to have a shape!

Back then, when Li Qing saw this white cloud, he felt that it was a little strange. Today, seeing it again confirmed the speculation in his heart.

“Am I going home?” Xiao Bai’s mood was somewhat complicated.

The few of them flew towards the Cloud Small Realm. Soon, they passed through the dense fog, as if they had entered a soft ball of cotton, giving people a very comfortable feeling.

After flying for a short distance, it was as if he had suddenly passed through a barrier. All the white clouds disappeared, and his vision suddenly became clear.

A large sea of beautiful flowers appeared in front of them, flowers blooming in all directions, flowers clustered in piles, swaying in the warm breeze, emitting an attractive fragrance.

“What a beautiful place!” This was the first time Liu Ke’er had come, and she couldn’t help but open her mouth wide, shocked by the beautiful scenery.

“Actually, it’s all fake! The Hanging Garden created by Xiao Bai back then hasn’t dissipated yet. Can your illusion last for such a long time?” Li Qing asked.

Xiao Bai said, “I don’t quite understand why the illusions here can last for so long, but I lost the ability to do so when I was outside.”

“Perhaps there is something strange about this small and medium-sized cloud world.” Li Qing said.

This place was considered a unique place. Below it was the energy beam emitted from the central abyss of the Spirit Sea. It just so happened to be at the top. This meant that the Middle and Small Cloud Realms could continuously absorb the energy from the central abyss of the Spirit Sea. That was why it was able to create such a miraculous environment.

After so many years of not returning, everything here was as calm as usual. Obviously, no one or creature had ever entered.

Such a high place, and it was located at the center of the Spiritual Sea. There weren’t many creatures that could reach this place, let alone this Small Cloud Realm that looked like an ordinary white cloud. It was easy to ignore it.

Li Qing pointed out and said to Liu Ke’er, “Perhaps in the middle of this sea of flowers, it can help increase the probability of comprehending the unity of heaven and man. Try it.”

Liu Ke’er nodded and sat cross-legged in the middle of the sea of flowers. She closed her eyes and began to try to comprehend the nature of heaven and earth.

As for Li Qing and Xiao Bai, they had nothing else to do, so they began to explore the secrets of the Cloud Small Realm.

Although Xiao Bai had lived here for a long time, he did not know much about this place and could not provide much help.

After rushing for several days to investigate, they were unable to find any traces of the past. This place really seemed to be a unique environment created naturally by the heavens and the earth.

However, Li Qing’s divine sense was very powerful now. It was no longer what it used to be. After a period of research, he had found some clues, confirming the conjecture in his heart.

“I have always suspected that this Small Cloud Realm is not formed by the gathering of cloud energy. Rather, it has a physical body and a shape.”

“But when I want to study it carefully, I can’t find any evidence. This illusion is somewhat illusory, visible and intangible.”

“It’s only now that my divine sense has become so powerful that I can finally confirm this point. This Small Cloud Realm is actually a treasure, a artificially refined treasure!”

Xiao Bai said, “Is this really a treasure? Why don’t I feel it at all?”

“Of course you don’t have divine sense. This small cloud realm absorbs the energy from the center of the spiritual sea, so it can automatically form a small realm within a radius of ten kilometers. It has been maintained until now!”

“Then can I put this treasure away?” Xiao Bai asked.

“I’m not too sure either. Let’s give it a try when your sister Ke’er has finished comprehending.” Li Qing said.

After a few days, when the time was almost right, Li Qing let Liu Ke’er take the newly obtained Blue Spirit Flower.

“I’ve already eaten so many treasures. If it were someone else, I would have already comprehended the unity of heaven and man. I hope I won’t disappoint you, right?” Liu Ke’er took a deep breath and swallowed the Blue Spirit Flower into her stomach. She closed her eyes and began to comprehend it carefully.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Liu Ke’er opened her eyes and sighed, “Still no good! I failed. It seems like I really don’t have any hope of comprehending the unity of heaven and man!”

Li Qing was also a little silent. There were so many heavenly materials and earth treasures that had no effect. No matter how much he ate, it would still be the same result.

If Liu Ke’er wanted to comprehend the unity of heaven and man, it might be useless to search for these things. She had to resort to other methods.

“Don’t worry, it’s still a long time. Let’s take it slow.” Li Qing stroked her hair.

“Alright, I won’t be anxious. You don’t have to worry.” Liu Ke’er’s expression was calm, as if she had accepted this fact calmly.

…

Half a month later, they were about to leave this place. Before leaving, Li Qing said, “Xiao Bai, try to control this Small and Medium Cloud Realm and collect it to see if you can do it.”

Xiao Bai nodded and began to emit white mist that merged into the Cloud Small Realm. Not long after, he saw that this ten mile radius was gradually shrinking and finally transforming into a small white cloud that landed on Xiao Bai’s palm.

“You put it away so easily?” Xiao Bai said in surprise.

“There are some things that you just didn’t do. Once you discover them, it might become very simple.” Li Qing smiled.

“From now on, I also have an amazing treasure!” Xiao Bai was overjoyed.

“Let’s go. There are many demonic beasts here, so we shouldn’t stay for too long.” Li Qing said.

“Then where are we going next?” Liu Ke’er asked. It had been a year since he had traveled to the Spirit Sea. Now, only a month had passed, and there was still a long way to go.

Li Qing pondered for a moment and looked at the center of the spiritual sea below. He slowly said, “If there is a chance, I would like to enter the center of the spiritual sea below.”

“What is it from below the abyss? Why can it continuously release such powerful energy?” Xiao Bai was not very clear about this.

“Spirit Source Space! A place that specializes in producing spirit energy! The Chaos Spirit Lake in Yin-yang Chaos Bottle was forged after I dug up some stalagmites inside!” Li Qing said.

“So the Chaos Spirit Lake was actually obtained from the Spirit Origin Space? No wonder it’s so miraculous that it can continuously generate spiritual energy!” Xiao Bai exclaimed.

Li Qing said, “Back then, I made an agreement with Ancient Desolate Lord. If I can successfully fuse the Dao Sect’s techniques, I will return.”

“Although you have merged with the Dao Sect, you have not been able to create a corresponding cultivation technique. This can only be considered as half of your success, right?” Liu Ke’er said.

“Furthermore, this place looks so terrifying. Can you really enter? Will it be torn into pieces by that energy beam?”

Li Qing said, “Actually, this beam of energy has weakened. When I came out of the Spirit Origin Space, I destroyed a large number of Heaven and Earth Spirit Pools. As a result, the speed at which the Spirit Origin Space produced Spirit Qi was greatly reduced, and the amount of energy erupted was naturally reduced.” “It’s only been a few decades now. Those Heaven and Earth Spiritual Lakes shouldn’t be able to recover so quickly.”

“But the problem is, when I came out back then, I rushed out in the direction of the energy eruption. Now, I’m afraid I can’t force my way in in this direction.”

“Since it’s so dangerous, why don’t you just stay out? You might not get much benefit from Ancient Desolate Lord anyway. It’s not worth the risk.” Liu Ke’er persuaded.

“That’s good. Since things can’t be done, then let’s leave.” Li Qing nodded.

At this moment, something strange happened to the abyss below. The energy beam suddenly fluctuated, like a pillar of water being torn apart by someone, causing splashes of water to splatter everywhere.
