It was already impossible to count how many times Qi Xia had raised his hand here, testing for something.

It was also completely impossible to calculate how many years Qi Xia had been drifting in this void space.

Perhaps over ten years, perhaps several decades.

To calm himself down, Heavenly-Dragon also learned from Qi Xia’s example and began recalling his own life.

But what made him feel even more desperate was that over these seventy years, he had been doing almost the same thing.

That was “Dissolution” and “Enter Dream.”

Once upon a time, he felt such days were boring enough, but compared to the days in this space… they truly counted as rich and colorful.

So many diverse people to decompose, so many strange and bizarre dreams to invade—what reason was there to find it boring?

Just as Heavenly-Dragon was gradually entering a delirious state, Qi Xia moved once again.

This time Heavenly-Dragon was used to it and didn’t pay much attention. He only saw Qi Xia raise his hand, stroking something in midair.

But the next second, something in midair responded to Qi Xia, and a beam of faint light illuminated Heavenly-Dragon’s face at this moment.

Heavenly-Dragon didn’t know if he had been here too long and was having hallucinations. He saw something like a living creature in that palm, writhing.

“Ha…” Qi Xia finally showed a smile at this moment, but that smile was clearly abnormal, filled with endless madness.

Heavenly-Dragon hurriedly looked closely, making his already dulled thoughts keep up with the current situation’s development as much as possible.

There was indeed a creature in Qi Xia’s hand.

The entire creature’s body flickered with faint light, like some kind of deep-sea fish.

But Heavenly-Dragon was very certain such a thing wouldn’t exist in reality.

“Haha…” Qi Xia laughed while staring at the creature before him, only showing a smile. “Hahaha…”

This strange smile made Heavenly-Dragon momentarily think Qi Xia had forgotten how to speak.

“White-Sheep… you…” Heavenly-Dragon stared at the thing before him in disbelief. “What kind of madman are you… in this situation, the first thing you do is actually awaken your own ‘immortal technique’…”

Qi Xia’s lips moved slightly as he stared at the flesh ball before him and said: “Listen to me… you cannot fall here… you will float here forever.”

After hearing this, Heavenly-Dragon paused. What he never expected was that Qi Xia had actually begun giving psychological suggestions to a monster.

“In the time ahead, I will work hard to make you grow.” Qi Xia said. “Let’s work together to escape from here.”

After saying this, he slowly released his hand, letting the flesh ball float away.

Sure enough, just as Qi Xia had suggested, the small flesh ball stared with its eyes and began hovering in midair. It neither fell nor drifted far.

It was like a tiny planet revolving around Qi Xia.

Qi Xia lowered his head and began using his “Faith.” The flesh ball before him also suddenly became deformed at this moment.

Some other chunks of flesh grew on it, then gradually merged with it, making its size somewhat larger. The light on it also intensified slightly at this moment.

But this space clearly suppressed Qi Xia’s ability. By the time Qi Xia had used up all his “Faith,” the flesh ball had only grown to the size of a tire.

Qi Xia wasn’t discouraged either, only lowering his head again, emptying his thoughts.

“Don’t…”

Heavenly-Dragon hadn’t expected that Qi Xia would go back to sleep after waking for only ten-some minutes. For a moment, he was incomparably panicked.

He felt as if he were like an audience member who had queued for several decades just to watch the performer before him perform one show.

But this performance ended far too early.

The situation wasn’t much different from before. The space once again returned to quiet, with no one paying attention to Heavenly-Dragon anymore.

But the situation seemed somewhat better than before. After all, a glowing flesh ball with eyes and ears that rotated on its own had appeared here.

Qi Xia floated in midair while the flesh ball followed him in rotation. This scene at least made Heavenly-Dragon feel it was no longer so void.

As if there was a trace of “human presence.”

Although this human presence seemed incomparably strange no matter where you looked, in this pitch-black void space it was enough to help Heavenly-Dragon pass the time.

He didn’t know if Heavenly-Dragon had gradually grown accustomed to loneliness, or if the flesh ball before him made things less unbearable, but Heavenly-Dragon always felt Qi Xia’s next awakening took a very short time.

Perhaps half a year, perhaps four or five months.

He opened his eyes once again and began continuing to activate his “Faith,” continuously activating “Endless Life” toward the flesh ball before him.

Only his expression looked even more deranged than before.

Massive “Faith” began pouring into the entire flesh ball. Giant tumors continuously appeared on that flesh ball.

This time, the situation made even Heavenly-Dragon shudder.

Each giant tumor had independent facial features, as if countless human faces were growing on the flesh ball.

Every human face was screaming and wailing at this moment. They couldn’t breathe, they were in unbearable pain.

Their appearance turned this place from complete nothingness into a true glowing hell.

Qi Xia listened to those human faces’ sobbing sounds and slightly frowned, then grew new tumors at each human face’s mouth to block their voices.

Just like this, with a face full of madness, he patched and mended. The giant flesh ball gradually grew to the size of a car.

But it looked truly too bizarre. Heavenly-Dragon began to feel somewhat wary of being in the same space as this thing.

A giant glowing face with countless facial features?

In the days that followed, each time Qi Xia woke, he would be more deranged than before, and the flesh ball also began explosive growth.

Until it grew to the appearance of a small building, only then did Heavenly-Dragon know what Qi Xia was trying to do.

He saw Qi Xia slowly shift his form and stand on top of that giant flesh ball.

He crouched down, stroking the slightly glowing flesh and blood beneath his feet.

“Since there are no reference points here… we’ll create them ourselves…” Qi Xia murmured. “From this moment on, you are the world of this space.”

After saying this, Qi Xia began looking up toward the void. He gazed for a long time before saying quietly: “Still not qualified…?”

Heavenly-Dragon was somewhat dazed. He followed Qi Xia onto this small world. Qi Xia also slowly sat down at this moment. Not knowing how many years had passed, the two could finally feel the existence of “land.”

In this bizarre space, as long as one believed the flesh ball before them was a piece of land, then one could step upon it and move freely on its surface.

Qi Xia’s current state of madness had gradually reached a degree Heavenly-Dragon couldn’t understand. Under Heavenly-Dragon’s gaze, he sat down in place and once again entered meditation.

He knew that since there was no escape route, he could only dig out a path himself.

No matter how difficult this path was, as long as it was started, it would reach the end.

“White-Sheep… is there really no other way?” Heavenly-Dragon murmured. “What an extremely long road this is…”

Qi Xia lowered his head and said to himself: “If you know the path to victory, you absolutely must not take shortcuts.”
