“This… This is…”
Chen Xiaobei followed behind Xiao’er up north. They walked past a dense forest and came to an open space.
There were not trees or grass but an old abandoned city.
It was in left in ruins as if a war had taken place there. The houses had collapsed and the buildings of the city were beyond recognition.
This brought Chen Xiaobei’s mind back to the sunken little island which was also left in a wreck because Qie Loulan battled against his enemy there.
The reason that caused him to connect these lost cities was because there was also a small portal in this city!
“It looks like it still works.”
Chen Xiaobei walked towards the center of the ruins and examined the portal. Its structure and eye of the formation were not damaged.
“Yeah! It still can be used!” Xiao’er said, “The three-star Spiritual Medicine I found is on the other side of the portal.”
“What? Are you saying that you used this portal to go to another space?” Chen Xiaobei gasped.
“Yeah… There’s enough Spiritual Qis here to keep this portal working. You only have to stand on the top, communicate with it telepathically and it will send you there!”
“That’s not the point!” Chen Xiaoebei glared at Xiao’er. “I told you to keep watch in case there’s any danger. But you went to another space and didn’t care if I was dead or alive!”
“It’s not like that! The area of the space we’re in is not very big. It’s only about 10km radius. I circled the area and found that there was no threat so, I decided to go out and take a look.
“What? This place is only an independent space that is 10km in radius?”
The last time he talked to Qie Loulan, Chen Xiaobi found out that the way to create an independent space. He could set up his own space that was separated from the outside world.
Chen Xiaobei had imagined that one day he would also create a space like this. Filled the place with nutritional soil and an abundance of water, then plant beautiful trees and flowers and a whole forest of First Love Peach trees—making the place a true paradise!
After that, he would bring his friends and family there.
A place like that, isolated from the world outside, was the perfect getaway.
Once they were there, even if earth were to explode, all his loved ones would be safe and sound.
“Does that mean that this place is a space set up by some powerful people? This powerful person’s idea was exactly like mine: Turn this place into a nirvana and then bring his family, friends and even his subordinates here. Slowly but surely, it became a little city of its own!”
“I thought so too!” Xiao’er agreed. “But after that, the city kept growing and too many people were coming in and going out, which attracted his enemies’ attention. So the city was attacked and completely destroyed!”
“That means I got lucky and picked up a ready-made space! This is already a paradise. I only need to build a few houses and I can bring the whole Bei Xuan Faction here! This place is filled with Spiritual Qis. So, it’ll be easier for everyone to train! Most importantly, this place is completely safe! We won’t have to worry about any enemy attacking us!”
“Bro Bei… are you saying you want to build a house now?”
“Silly! Not yet! I will have to find out where this portal leads to first. Find out what kind of world is beyond that portal. The best is if I could settle down in that world first and then think about moving Bei Xuan Faction here. After all, the purpose of moving my friends and family here is to protect them. But they can’t even step out of this place, wouldn’t that just be imprisoning them?”
“Mmm, my Bro Bei is really smart! Settle down first then when you have the propensity to give them a comfortable life, you can bring them over!”
“Alright. I need to remember this place. We’ll go out now!” Chen Xiaobei turned around to take a good look at the space that may just be his secret hideaway and then stepped through the portal.
Rumble!
The portal drew in the Spiritual Qis in the air and began to set into motion.
Swoosh!
A blue light flashed and Chen Xiaobei vanished.
…..
Swoosh!
Chen Xiaobei reappeared in a completely different space.
It was a very damp cave and a loud sound of rushing water came from the mouth of the cave, where light was shining through. A large body of water was pouring outside the cave.
“Is this a waterfall?”
Chen Xiaobei thought of Moneky King’s Water Curtain Cave.
“It is and it’s a big one!”
Chen Xiaobei walked to the entrance of the cave and looked down. “This… is really really big…”
It was at least a few hundred meters drop to the bottom. Which meant the entire waterfall was at least 1,000 meters tall! In Li Bai’s poem, it mentioned that the streams pours down 3,000 feet, like the falling of a galaxy. The waterfall that Chen Xiaobei was looking at was 1,000 meters tall and it was equivalent to 3,000 feet! And it’s width was around hundreds of meters too. Looking at the water splashing at the rock, it did look like galaxy falling on earth!
“This waterfall is humongous! No one will ever be able to find this cave!”
“You’re right! This is the perfect secret base!”
“This is just like the fortune that you found from surviving a catastrophic event! Bro Bei survived Atlantis and then discovered this space! This is a mysterious constant!”
“This is all thanks to Little Fox… She was the one who saved me and tore the rift in space. But… she doesn’t get to enjoy all these…”
“Who said she won’t? Bro Bei will save her eventually so that her days of enjoying are yet to come!”
“Mm! You are right! I will push myself to work harder so that I can bring her happiness in the future!” Chen Xiaobei paused for a while then asked. “We’ve been talking for so long. Where is the Spiritual Medicine you left for me?”
“Look down there, it’s in the forest below!”
