While Song Shuhang was in thought, the Lustrous Colorful Monster Core reinflated, and went back to what it used to be.

In its round state, the Golden Core Composition on it returned to be the [The World-Ending Holy Sword of the End], with the final boss being the humanoid version of the liquid metal ball.

There wasn't anything out of the ordinary.

Song Shuhang let out a breath of relief, and got his consciousness to leave the 'Golden Core Composition' space.

After his consciousness returned, he immediately lowered his head and looked at the two 'lustrous karmic threads' on his chest.

Their colors remained the same, as did their thickness. Nothing had happened to them.

With his chin still resting on the hilt of Meteor Sword, Senior White asked, "You successfully added your finishing touch?"

Song Shuhang nodded. "Yes, it's done!"

Senior White Two asked, "Did the karmic threads evolve?"

Song Shuhang shook his head.

Senior White Two said, "After all that time, you only added your finishing touch? What's the point of keeping you here? Away you go!"

"The finishing touch is a major event in a person's life— Aaaah~" Song Shuhang's primordial soul was picked up by a 'disposable flying sword' and instantly brought into the air, quickly disappearing from their sight.

When Song Shuhang's figure disappeared, a wave of evil energy surged up in the Ancient Nether, with a spatial gate opening in an attempt to intercept Song Shuhang—it was the Ancient Nether Chaos Will.

However, Song Shuhang wasn't using an ordinary 'spatial passage'; instead, he was utilizing the special space-traversing ability of the giant turtles of disaster.

The Ancient Nether Chaos Will failed to intercept Song Shuhang, and so the evil energy returned to tranquility.

Senior White Two softly said, "This guy still hasn't given up on Song Shuhang."

Senior White responded, "Let's plant more wards in the rest of the Ancient Nether first. After that, we can try looking for her and talk to her. As long as it's just a misunderstanding, then it's something that can be cleared up."

"You have a point." Senior White Two clenched his fists lightly. There were indeed many ways to resolve misunderstandings.

Senior White Two said, "In addition, that figure who used a 'demonic god pillar' and attempted to plunder the authority of the ruler of the Ancient Nether..."

Senior White said, "That guy should be the Immortal demonic cultivator who planted some of the pillars, right?"

That guy was someone who had failed to become the Wielder of the Heaven's Will but managed to stay alive, avoiding the retaliation of the Wielder of the Will by escaping into the Ancient Nether. The two Senior Whites had seen pillars similar to the demonic god pillar planted in the Ancient Nether while they'd been inserting their own.

Senior White Two said, "The matters of the Ancient Nether have nothing to do with us. Generally speaking, we should not intervene in things like this."

Senior White responded, "Mm-hmm, if they don't involve us in their matters, I have no interest in intervening, either... My interest only lies in these nodes that we can plant in the Ancient Nether."

Senior White Two said, "I completely agree with you."

The two Seniors Whites smiled slightly.

It was a picturesque scene.

❄️❄️❄️

Song Shuhang's primordial soul soon returned to the 'Scarlet Dragon Cave'.

Senior White used his clone as the coordinates, sending him back here with only a few centimeters of deviation.

As soon as Song Shuhang's primordial soul appeared, he saw Senior White's clone looking up at the sky with an expression that seemed to say "life has no meaning" on his face.

Senior White's clone was still covered by the sheet and floating in the air.

He had a huge black lotus beneath his head while being in a very fitting sleeping posture.

However, right below him to his right, Fairy Creation could be seen sneaking glances at the black lotus from time to time.

There were several orderly gaps on the black lotus, and these gaps seemed to match Fairy Creation's teeth very well.

"..." Song Shuhang. 

Without anyone having to explain to him, he could already picture the scene of Fairy Creation prowling like a cheetah in the dark, waiting for Senior White's clone to fall asleep before taking a bite out of the black lotus, getting immediately sent flying by him right after.

At this moment, it appeared as if Senior White's clone was unable to deal with Fairy Creation at once... Was it that he was simply too lazy to seal her up?

On the other hand, Fairy Creation had yet to give up on eating the black lotus. From the several bite marks evident on the lotus, it could be discerned that she had succeeded several times.

Due to her constant staring, Senior White's clone's whole body felt uncomfortable, and he found himself unable to fall asleep.

Currently, Senior White's clone was floating in the air, and struggling to decide between two things.

Should he climb out of the warm sheet and deal with Fairy Creation?

Or should he just stay in bed, and let Fairy Creation gnaw on the black lotus?

Getting up and dealing with the other party felt like it'd be extremely tiring.

However, if Fairy Creation were not dealt with, then he definitely wouldn't be able to keep his black lotus.

Was there anything that he could do to kill two birds with one stone?

Not good... I feel tired just from thinking so much.

At that moment, Song Shuhang appeared.

Senior White's clone's eyes were filled with joy and stared at him.

"Ahem." Song Shuhang looked down, and said, "Fairy Creation, can you stop going for Senior White's black lotus? If you want, I can make a 'white lotus' or even several black lotuses for you."

Fairy Creation heard this, and made a big circle with her hands. "Same day~ Same face~ Same me~ Right in front of you~"

Song Shuhang replied, "Understood. I can guarantee that it'll be the same size."

Fairy Creation nodded in satisfaction.

Song Shuhang started making lotus flowers for Fairy Creation.

At the same time, he saw that he and Fairy Creation were also connected by a 'karmic thread'.

Although they had a golden karmic thread, it was only a pale gold.

I can still see the karmic threads? Song Shuhang turned his head, and looked at Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword.

There was a karmic thread between him and Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword as well, and it was 'dark golden'.

My relationship with Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword is that much better than with Fairy Creation? After Song Shuhang thought for a while, he thought of a possibility.

Scarlet Heaven Sword found itself being stared at intently by Song Shuhang. "Why are you staring at me like that?"

Song Shuhang chuckled, and as his primordial soul returned to his body, he gave Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword two rounds of the ❮Saber-Nurturing Technique❯.

"So comfortable. The effect has improved, did you light up another golden core?" Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword said with satisfaction.

Song Shuhang replied, "Yes, Senior, I've also lit up my second small golden core."

Sure enough, as the two rounds of the ❮Saber-Nurturing Technique❯ took effect, the karmic thread between him and Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword slightly deepened in color.

The golden 'karmic thread' truly was the karma between 'fellow daoists'.

Then, what were the three special seven-colored lines for?

Song Shuhang began to study these three seven-colored lines carefully.

The end of the first seven-colored line was also someone who had a 'pink' line connected to them.

Song Shuhang had an impression of this line.

This should be the karmic thread between him and Lady Onion.

The second line... Song Shuhang tried following this karmic thread.

In the end, a giant whale the size of an island appeared in Song Shuhang's eyes.

"Sage Monarch Melon Eater?"

This was completely beyond Song Shuhang's expectations.

He didn't expect that a seven-colored line connected him to Senior Melon Eater.

So... What did Senior Melon Eater and Lady Onion have in common?
