    Where is this?


    Gu Qingluan looked around.


    She had only infused the Hongmeng Qi into the mouth of the stone Taotie on the raised carvings, and a


    suction force had pulled her into the stone wall, resulting in her appearing in this strange ce.


    At this moment, she stood on a white tform, surrounded by a vast sea of clouds.


    Gu Qingluan extended her consciousness, but all she could perceive was the endless expanse of


    clouds.


    She decided to take a step forward and test it out.


    After walking a few steps, she stepped on an empty space with her front foot. Fortunately, she reacted


    quickly, otherwise, she would have fallen.


    She didn’t know what was below, but her intuition told her that falling would be disastrous.


    Gu Qingluan took two steps back and turned around to observe other directions.

    Suddenly, a celestialdder appeared out of thin air.


    The pristine whitedder extended upwards continuously, seemingly without an end in sight.


    It was the only path avable at the moment. After some hesitation, Gu Qingluan decided to climb up


    and see what awaited her.


    She cautiously ced one foot on the first step to test its solidity. Once she confirmed it was stable,


    she shifted her weight and ced her other foot on the second step.


    Third step, fourth step, fifth step…


    Gu Qingluan began to ascend faster and faster.


    But the celestialdder seemed to have no end.


    She didn’t know how many steps she had climbed. Looking up, the destination still appeared far out of


    reach.


    She lowered her head and looked down. The steps she had previously taken were covered by the sea


    of clouds, making it impossible to see where she had initially stood.


    Gu Qingluan pursed her lips and continued climbing.


    Her spatial storage bracelet couldn’t be essed, so she had to endure her thirst and hunger.


    Her physical and profound energy rapidly depleted, and Gu Qingluan felt that if she continued like this,


    she would exhaust herself on the celestialdder. She needed toe up with a n.


    So, she sat down where she was and took a rest.


    She wondered if it was just her imagination, but ever since she appeared here, she felt like she was


    being watched by a pair of eyes.


    Gu Qingluan casually scanned her surroundings but didn’t spot anyone


    SUSPICIOUS.


    After resting for a while, she suddenly crossed her legs and entered a state of cultivation.


    Spiritual energy converged towards her body from all directions.


    “Hmm?”


    A faint exmation, almost imperceptible, echoed through the air.


    Gu Qingluan heard it, though she pretended not to, secretly keeping it in mind.


    After an unknown period of time, her profound energy was fully restored.


    She opened her eyes but instead of continuing to climb up, she loosened her legs. One leg stretched


    straight, with her foot resting directly on the steps below, while the other leg remained bent. She ced


    her hands behind her head and reclined, adopting a rxed and carefree posture.


    A gentle breeze brushed against her, and the sunlight was just right. She felt incredibly content.


    She didn’t know who was lurking in the shadows, but since her appearance here was rted to the Jun


    Family’s treasury, this ce must also be connected to the Jun Family.


    It couldn’t possibly be some malicious entity.


    Instead of climbing foolishly upwards, it was better to lure the snake out of its hole.


    Sure enough, after a while, the sea of clouds suddenly elerated its movement.


    Gu Qingluan kept her eyes closed, as if unaware of the changes around her.


    Until


    A young and tender voice sounded beside her.


    ‘Why aren’t you moving?”


    Gu Qingluan abruptly opened her eyes and saw a handsome young boy squatting next to her, staring


    at her with a puffed-up expression.


    The boy was about four or five years old, with delicate features and skin so fair that it seemed to glow.


    He was dressed in a pristine white robe adorned with silver star formations, resembling a little celestial


    being misced in the mortal realm.


    So, this little boy was the one secretly watching her earlier?


    Gu Qingluan was slightly surprised, but she maintained a calm demeanor and coldly replied, ‘Where


    am I supposed to go?”


    “There’s only one path here, of course, you climb up!” the boy answered.


    Gu Qingluan closed her eyes again and asked, ‘What’s up there? Why should I go up?”
