Chapter 1239 The Mysterious Island (2)

?When Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi had landed on the clearing of this big island, they saw that the mushrooms here were even more towering than it looked on the ground; these mushrooms were ten times their height and twenty times their width, with colors of white, red, pink and yellow.

Ji Yuan grinned to Shui Xisi, “I wonder if these mushrooms are edible?”

Shui Xisi stared at him, “Why don’t you try?”

Ji Yuan chuckled, “Maybe I can collect some of the parts back. It may be useful to some alchemists. But all these mushrooms are too big to fit into my spatial storage. Maybe I just look for some small ones that are growing at the base.”

Shui Xisi said to him, “You know. These mushrooms are called the Thousand Illusions Shrooms. If you go too near to them, you may even get hallucinations and then died at its base. Why do you think that there are no desolate beasts around them? Also, their spores may even turn you into a mindless walking zombie as well. So it is not advisable for you to walk too near to them.”

Ji Yuan weakly looked at Shui Xisi, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

Shui Xisi smiled, “So without me to tell you, you will go around and eat strange mushrooms? You should be thankful that I am in this place with you.”

Ji Yuan laughed weakly, “Maybe without you, I may be in another safer location and there will be no mushrooms around. Hahaha…”

Shui Xisi said to him with some exasperations, “Ji Yuan, you are too shameless!”

Ji Yuan laughed as he hurried his steps, “Quick. Let’s go and explore the caves. Maybe we can find something.”

Shui Xisi frowned, “Why are you in such a hurry? Slow down. We have all the time in the world.”

Ji Yuan turned around to grin at her, “There are many uses for a cave besides finding the entrance to the Nine Abyss Realms.”

“Oh? What other uses?” Shui Xisi asked curiously as she could not think of any other uses.

Ji Yuan replied with a playful wink, “Such as banging the future immortal ruler of the Nine Heavens in there.”

Shui Xisi: …

She was startled by Ji Yuan’s reply but she was soon lowering her head shyly as she flashed past Ji Yuan, “Stop talking rubbish and let’s go.” ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ Novᴇlꜰɪre.ɴet

Ji Yuan laughed behind her, “Sisi, why are you in such a hurry than me? Are you getting impatient already?”

Shui Xisi was actually flustered by Ji Yuan’s words and she did not want him to see her face; that was why she had hurried past him and not because of the reason that Ji Yuan had mentioned to her.

“You badass rascal. Can you be more serious? We are in a treacherous place and we ought to be careful.”

She had quickly warned Ji Yuan before flashing up several times to a cave that was on the ledge.

Ji Yuan followed behind her as they entered this dark cave together.

Like the many rock formations in this place, it was pinkish to red and this cave was not an exception.

Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi took a look around and saw that while this cave was not big but there were passages that led them deeper into the mountains.

Shui Xisi asked him, “So shall we explore the passages?”

Ji Yuan chuckled as he began to take out a mat from his spatial storage to sit down comfortably.

“What are you doing, Ji Yuan?” Shui Xisi was astonished, “You are not exploring the passages?”

Ji Yuan chuckled as he winked at her, “What’s the hurry? We can do it later. Come, sit down with me.”

Shui Xisi frowned, “You are really not in a hurry to complete your mission.”

Ji Yuan laughed softly, “This is mission impossible. There are tens of thousands of caves and tunnels in this place. And only the right one would get us into the Nine Abyss Realms. The possibility of finding the right tunnel is extremely slim. This probably won’t be the right one. So what’s the hurry?”

Shui Xisi weakly said, “Well, there are rumors that there are actually 9 ways to enter the Nine Abyss Realms and hence, the place is named as such. Also, the tunnels may actually be all connected together so it may eventually get us to the Nine Abyssal Realms.”

Ji Yuan chuckled, “Sisi, you are being too optimistic. The possibility is too low and moreover, we are in the middle of an island. The caves here will lead us to nowhere except the mountain here. Or maybe, we may even find a way to the top of the desolate mists. Haha…”

Shui Xisi asked Ji Yuan with some suspicions, “Is that why you have chosen to explore an island instead of the interior?”

Ji Yuan grinned, “I have promised the Great God Pangu to find the Divine Philosopher Stone. Problem is, I don’t know where to find the entrance to the Nine Abyss Realms. The Celestial Realm is too big and our Desolate Celestial Fraternity is but a small part of the Celestial Realm. The Great God Pangu had said that the world under the desolate mists are 10 times bigger. With no maps, it is impossible to find the way to the Nine Abyss Realms. It may take us hundreds or even thousands of years to even find the entrance. Or even forever.”

He was being realistic when he was telling Shui Xisi about it.

It was impossible for him to find the Divine Philosopher Stone in less than 2 months; the Great God Pangu had told him that he had to find the Divine Philosopher Stone within 3 months to awaken the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth once again.

But ever since he had obtained the artefact soul of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, more than 1 month had already passed.

That was why he had less than 2 months to find the Divine Philosopher Stone.

To Ji Yuan, this was but an impossible task and a mission impossible.

That was why he was in no hurry.

It was not because he was not eager to find the Nine Abyss Realms since he enjoyed visiting new places and trials.

But he really had no idea where to start searching for the entrance to the Nine Abyss Realms.

Shui Xisi sighed softly as she sat down next to Ji Yuan, “I know that this may be a little hard…”

No sooner had she sat down next to Ji Yuan, he was already putting his hands on her back before caressing down to her waist and was even looking lecherous at her.

She frowned, “What are you doing?”

Ji Yuan protested weakly, “Erm, I am afraid that you may feel a little cold in the cave.”

Shui Xisi said coldly to him, “It is hot in this place. Will I feel cold in this place?”

Ji Yuan grinned, “Erm, then you want to take off your clothing since you feel hot?”

Shui Xisi: …
