Fortunately, he hadn’t forgotten what his fundantal purpose for coming here was.
After sensing the Floral Bead’s aura once more, Li Chengyi’s dark light flashed, and he vanished from his spot, flying off in another direction.
The mont he had just consud the Star Spirit, he faintly felt a familiar presence in the space fluctuations.
And at this mont, the previously uniform aura of the Floral Bead began to show a noticeable difference in concentration.
’Over there!’ Li Chengyi flickered with continuous blinks, heading straight towards where Rainbow Candy was.
He realized that Rainbow Candy had chosen such a technologically Blind Spot precisely to enhance her Flower Language Technique and proficiency to the fullest extent.
Only in such a world could she better hide herself, and when it was ti to exert her strength, she could perform to the maximum.
During the battle with the Star Spirit just now, Rainbow Candy must have been observing in secret and discovered him.
Following the trail at high speed through space, indeed, a clear aura of the Floral Bead erged from a distance.
Li Chengyi let out a long sigh of relief, activating the Reverse Trace in his heart.
Ssssh!
His figure flashed, and suddenly disappeared.
Jingyuan Star · Linjiang City.
Inside an intensive care unit at the First Central Hospital.
On the pristine white bed lay a young girl, emaciated and delicately featured, who was lying quietly on her back.
The girl, with her hair completely shaved, stared blankly with emotionless eyes, and her arms covered with fine black spots. It was Rainbow Candy, who had been missing for a long ti.
The beep of dical monitors continuously sounded at the bedside.
And she had been listening to such sounds for many years...thinking she had already grown accustod to them, no longer feeling tornted.
But at this mont, her emotions seed like boiling magma, seething and burning.
The beeping of the monitors sounded like small hamrs repeatedly striking her heart heavily.
Whoosh!
In an instant, a dark light flashed.
All the instrunts in the ward failed at the sa mont.
An invisible energy instantly enveloped the entire room.
The noise of the traffic outside the window vanished, and the brightness of the sky turned into a pale ash.
The bright lights flickered erratically, before going out completely with a snap.
At the sa ti, a figure she was all too familiar with, one she had been longing for, appeared out of nowhere at the edge of the bed, situated high and quietly watching her.
"I’ve finally found you... Tang Tang," Li Chengyi said with a smile of relief as he looked at the girl on the bed.

More than ten minutes later.
Inside the ward, Rainbow Candy slowly sat up. Her gaunt body had regained fullness, and the markings on her hands had completely disappeared.
Her body, which had weakened over years, regained vitality under the influence of the Radiance Field.
She sat on the bed, watching Li Chengyi peel an apple beside her.
"Ever since you disappeared, we’ve encountered increasingly difficult Blind Spots. Paine helped us. At that ti, he had so personal grudges and kept wanting to avenge you. After struggling to survive through repeated hardships and exerting all his strength, he barely managed to rescue a few of us," she said, pausing montarily.
"Later, after many experiences, he ca around and joined us in our all-out efforts. Unfortunately, he was eventually thrown off balance by White Wax."
"White Wax is gone. It won’t appear anymore," Li Chengyi declared.
"..." Rainbow Candy chuckled. "Later, to lure the pursuers away and avoid the entanglents of the Blind Spots, I had to start looking for a Blind Spot World that suited . Then I found this place."
"I was negligent. I got trapped in a Blind Spot. Unable to escape... By the ti I ca back with full force, I realized that many years had already passed," Li Chengyi said gravely.
"The turns in life are not up to you or ; they’re in the hands of fate," said Rainbow Candy, who had grown more mature and serene than before, reminding him vaguely of Da Xiong.
"Do you think I resemble Da Xiong?" she suddenly asked playfully, blinking.
"A little," Li Chengyi also smiled.
"When I faced dangerous situations, I would think, ’What would she do in such a predicant?’ Surprisingly, it really worked. That tactic helped survive several dire situations," Rainbow Candy said with a liberating laugh.
"It’s been tough," Li Chengyi rembered the promises he had made to them in the past.
No matter what, during the ti of his disappearance, he had broken his promise...
"Are you willing to co back?" he asked softly.
"Why not?" Rainbow Candy smiled. "Don’t feel sorry for us. If it wasn’t for you, we wouldn’t have survived until now. It’s just that when I first got here, my injuries were too severe and without the conditions for treatnt, my use of Flower Language also beca overdrawn, leaving behind quite so sequelae. Later, after hiding for a while, the illnesses broke out all at once. If you were any later, I might really not have lasted. But now..."
She stretched out her hand, her fair palm open in front of Li Chengyi.
"Welco ?"
Li Chengyi looked at her hand, feeling a complex mix of emotions, but placed his hand on hers nonetheless.
"Of course."
He grasped her hand firmly.
"This ti, I will never let you down again."
"I believe you," Rainbow Candy said with a smile.

Two days later.
Space.
"According to the detection screening, there are a total of three hundred and forty-two materials that et your requirents, boss. Among them, fifty-one elental substances, after you absorb them, there is a significant enhancent to the strength of your body. Hence, if you concentrate on collecting these elental substances, your cultivation speed can be greatly increased," the voice of Rainbow Candy resounded from the brainwave transmitter.
The technology in this Blind Spot had surpassed that of Earth-Moon; communication no longer relied on sound waves.
Li Chengyi flew rapidly through space, hunched over, and soon arrived at a chaotic belt of small asteroids.
"So you’re saying, absorbing certain specified ore veins can also strengthen and accelerate my enhancent?!" Li Chengyi inquired within his mind.
This type of real-ti communication in combination with united combat involuntarily brought back mories of his ti on Earth-Moon.
"Yes, according to my calculations, the best material for you to incinerate should be selected based on the color depth I’ve marked. The pairing of elental nutrition can also significantly boost the enhancent effect~," Rainbow Candy spoke with a laugh.
"Understood," Li Chengyi responded.
"Additionally, I’ve already successfully synthesized the catalyst. After the calculations, once you absorb it and mix it with the catalyst I’ve synthesized within half an hour, it’s equivalent to incinerating the entire energy of one hundred and thirty-four Common Star Spirits at once," Rainbow Candy said.
"The key point is that such a process is completely safe and exceedingly covert," Li Chengyi said with a smile.
Using the Aggregation Heart Flower Language of Rainbow Candy combined with powerful computing, he quickly formulated an optimal enhancent route.
"Then, let’s begin," Rainbow Candy said. "Surrounding scanning fluctuations have been shielded."
"Thanks."
Li Chengyi teleported in an instant, appearing within the asteroid belt, releasing his attracting force indiscriminately.
A vast amount of nearby teorite dust started to be absorbed into him.
Days passed.
In the blink of an eye, half a month later.
Within this belt of small asteroids, each asteroid’s surface showed signs of having been gnawed upon – signs of destruction.
A great number of hidden microscopic ore veins were uprooted and completely incinerated.
Tens of millions of tons of tal ores were entirely converted into fuel for the Sword Furnace inside Li Chengyi’s Primordial Spirit Sword Palace.
The originally golden flas were now turning faintly translucent.
The Sword Furnace itself sprouted nurous tallic silver lines, resembling decorative patterns.
Throughout the Primordial Spirit Sword Palace, the walls now featured so of the shapes of the devoured asteroids.
In just a few days, Li Chengyi felt his physical strength had increased by several fold at least.
With the entry into True Fire and the practice of top-notch techniques from Tian Ju Pavilion, coupled with the acceleration from the Flower Language Technique of Rainbow Candy, his efficiency in energy utilization from material incineration was far superior to his peers.
In just a few days, he had accomplished what would otherwise take other Tian Ju Pavilion peers more than a year of hard work.
At this rate, it wouldn’t take long for him to effortlessly surpass the two hundred years of cultivation of others and directly enter the next Realm.
Fortunately, he still rembered that his purpose for coming here was to rescue people, not to stay here indefinitely.
Soon after the absorption ended, silently, Li Chengyi prepared to teleport away from the Blind Spot with Rainbow Candy.
But before they could leave, they had to confront the entanglent of the Blind Spot that Rainbow Candy had been avoiding for many years.
Having accumulated such entanglent for so long, once they left this place, the erging Blind Spot dangers would undoubtedly be extrely terrifying.
After discussing with Rainbow Candy, Li Chengyi decided to temporarily let her stay in this world and figure out a solution later.
He, on the other hand, would continue to leave and look for other mbers.
Half a month later...
Within a Sky City enshrouded in clouds.
Amidst the blue sky, Li Chengyi slashed downwards with a single-handed sword, casting forth a golden sword light.
The massive sword light instantly flew out, bisecting the entire Sky City in two.
Like a sliced open block of tal, the two halves of the city tilted slowly and began to split apart with rumbling sounds to the left and right.
A silver-armored humanoid, identical in appearance and form to Rainbow Candy but with a much larger chest, floated out from the interior of the city, unconscious.
She was entwined with a myriad of tallic tendrils and was obviously unconscious for a very long ti.
As she floated out, stimulated by the external air and light, the silver-armored humanoid slowly moved her eyelashes and then opened her eyes.
"Boss...??"
"You didn’t sleep your butt off till now, did you?" Li Chengyi said helplessly as he looked at Dragon Gate Crane.
"Uh..." Dragon Gate Crane’s expression changed, and his eyes flicked with various complicated emotions. "Boss, you would absolutely never guess what I’ve been through..."
"Yes, I don’t want to know," Li Chengyi said indifferently, glancing at the tal tendrils still lingering on his body.
"Alright, you wait here for now, I am going to pick up the next one."
Nowadays, with the Deity technology of Mosha, it was possible to establish teleportation arrays within different Blind Spots; he could completely connect these Blind Spots together into one.
There was no need to forcibly bring everyone back to Earth-Moon. The current Earth-Moon had nothing left, devoid of its past traces.
"Boss, is Sister Tang still around?" Dragon Gate Crane asked hastily.
"She wouldn’t die even if you did. Rest assured," Li Chengyi shook his head, waved his hand to give him a Consciousness Seed, mixed with a Sword of Wisdom for protection, and then teleported away using long-distance counter-tracking.
Next, it was ti to pick up Xiao Zhong and Da Xiong.
With Rainbow Candy’s analysis, transmitting the AI mainfra over, rebooting Rose and Moon Season, and accessing the database was the next step.
Very soon, the Blind Spot where Xiao Zhong was hiding was found.
