Another Cliché Cultivation Story

Chapter 17

Two figures holding hands walked out of a glowing door that illuminated the dark surroundings before disappearing.

Well, that was an interesting experience. Said the taller figure.

The shorter figure nodded and inspected the surroundings with curiosity.

This looks exactly like the cave in the Dark Chasm. Look, there are even similar runes on the wall.

The taller figure laughed and muttered, Looks like this is a two-way spatial teleportation formation. How lucky, now I don't need to waste time thinking about how to get back to Mortal Haven.

What! Ji Xian, what did you say? You didnt know this was a two-way spatial teleportation formation? How do you plan on going back home if it wasnt?

Ji Xian coughed lightly, Never mind that, Let's get out of here and take a look around.

He walked forward gleefully while Xia Lihua behind him pouted adorably.

The two exited the cave and glanced around.

This looks like a jungle. Said Xia Lihua

Ji Xian nodded.

Let's get a better look.

His feet left the ground and he shot up into the sky with Xia Lihua following him. Floating high above, the two of them looked down from where they emerged with mixed feelings.

They're currently on an island. A small island surrounded by a large body of water. Xia Lihua concentrated her gaze in all directions, even at her level she wasn't able to see any sign of land. Oddly enough, seeing this vast ocean reminded her of the Mortal Haven World.

Were in the middle of nowhere. She sighed.

Ji Xian silently observed the island. After a moment, he finally spoke.

Lihua, what do you think?

His question was vague but she knew what he was asking.

The cave in Mortal Haven is in an extremely dangerous place where even Holy realm experts would have to think twice before entering. The cave we arrived at is on a remote island; isolated and hidden. Not to mention

She moved her gaze to the middle of the island where the trees are so lush and wild plants so abundant that there was no opening for the sunlight to pierce through. These trees and plants weren't normal, but she didnt pay any attention to them. Her gaze penetrated below the ground and finally landed on a figure. It had a long body and limbs shorter than the average human. It lay on all fours with its head hidden from view.

After a while, she finally looked away but a serious expression remained on her face.

Turning to Ji Xian, she concluded, Whoever made the two-way spatial teleportation formation isnt simple.

Indeed. Ji Xian laughed.

Try using your spiritual sense. He said.

Xia Lihua released her spiritual sense and swept the island.

Immediately, she noticed something wrong. Her eyes widened before she slowly release her spiritual sense again, this time she meticulously feel her surroundings.

The island is in front of me, but I can just barely sense it.

Oh? Are you sure you can see it? Asked Ji Xian.

Confused, Xia Lihua glanced at him, wondering what he meant, she turned her head back to the island only to find that it had vanished. Surprised, she channeled her Astral Essence into her eyes. It shined with a silver hue, only then did she see the island once more.

Definitely not simple

Ji Xian smiled and said nothing. He wasnt too invested in the mystery of the island since he didn't find it at all interesting.

Lihua, pick a direction.

Brushing back her silky black hair, Xia Lihua randomly pointed in a direction without much thought.

Ji Xian smiled, Let's go.

The two of them flew leisurely towards the horizon and as their silhouette shrink, Ji Xians voice and Xia Lihuas laugh can be heard in the distance.

Lihua, Why do dogs float so easily on water?

After they left, a terrifying growl shook the island and disturbed the water, creating strong waves crashing about. A fearful voice can be heard under the ground, Who the hell was those two?

A moment later, peace was restored to the island.

Ji Xian and Xia Lihua continued flying for a week without rest. This alone gave them a glimpse at how big this world is compared to the Mortal Haven World. Granted, they weren't in a rush so they were flying rather slowly. Their journey wasn't met with any obstacles allowing the two of them to enjoy each others company quietly. Finally, after a few more days of flying

A city

From a distance away, a floating mountain moved rhythmically up and down above the sea of clouds. Below the mountain is an island that was several times bigger than the mysterious island they arrived on. There was a city built on it and people can be seen coming and going on a flying boat.

Ji Xian briefly glanced at the city before he looked at the mountain. His eyes shined with a clear subtle light as he inspects it. A moment later he retracts his gaze. Gently waving his hand, an ordinary wooden flying boat appeared before him,

Flying doesnt seem too common here, this should allow us to blend in a little. He said.

Xia Lihua nodded. At some point she had tied a piece of cloth around her head to cover her face from the nose down, revealing only her dazzling silver eyes. With her appearance, she was bound to attract all kinds of attention and since she was in unfamiliar territory, she felt it wouldn't hurt to take some precautions. Unfortunately, Ji Xian had a different thought. He reached out, removing the cloth covering her breathtaking appearance that was enough to cause the downfall of any kingdom.

Confused, she look at him questioningly.

Ji Xian chuckled.

In order to catch fish, you need bait!

Why cover perfection? Teased Ji Xian.

Hearing this, a confident smile broke out on her face.

Contrary to her expectation, Ji Xian took the cloth and instead tied it around his face.

"Ah!" She exclaimed. Her eyes widened as she see him wear the cloth that was just on her face earlier. Her mind wandered as her face turned slightly red.

After a second of hesitation, she reached out and ripped the cloth off Ji Xians face.

Why cover perfection? She said, throwing the familiar words back at him.

Ji Xian laughed, amused at her antics. His arm flashed and took back the cloth, tying it around his face once more.

I am more handsome than you are beautiful. He said cheekily

Hmph!"

"Idiot."
