Falling in Love to Escape the Original Book Plot [BL]
Chapter 271: Finally!

Chapter 271: Finally!

"Ayuan." He shouted, throwing himself into his lover’s arms.

"I finally got to see you."

"Did you miss me?" Zhen Yuan asked and Shen XU nodded.

"How long have I been in the cave?"

"One hundred and twenty-five years."

"So long?" Shen Xu couldn’t help but be shocked.

Although he knew he had been in the demon cave for a long time, he didn’t expect one hundred years to have already passed.

"Your qi cultivation has almost stabilised and your soul cultivation has advanced to the peak of level seven."

Hearing this, Shen Xu examined himself and gasped in surprise.

"At least I didn’t waste more than one hundred years." He said but soon frowned.

"What’s wrong?"

"I feel a kind of suppression on my soul."

"It’s the way of heaven." Zhen Yuan sighed and the double stared at him in confusion.

"The Yunshan secret realm is in the middle level of the cultivation world. At this level of the world, the fusion realm is the limit. We have to go to the Tianxuan continent if you want to advance your soul or other cultivation."

"Now that you mention it..." Shen Xu muttered but then glared at Zhen Yuan.

"What about your soul cultivation?" He asked.

Before entering the demon cave, Zhen Yuan’s soul and body cultivation were already at the peak of level seven.

Now that they were out, Shen Xu couldn’t help but wonder about the man’s cultivation.

"Peak of early eight." Zhen Yuan answered in a low voice.

Hearing this, Shen Xu sighed and shook his head.

"The heavens don’t even bother to hide their favour." He said but was happy for Zhen Yuan.

"Where are Yang Shi and the rest?" He asked.

"Feng Xue is there." Zhen Yuan said, pointing to the East.

"What’s there?"

When Zhen Yuan heard the question, his lips twitched and he pulled Shen Xu towards the East.

Three kilometres later, Shen Xu gasped and clenched his hands.

"We have finally found the gravity valley." He said and Zhen Yuan nodded before speaking.

"Feng Xue has been practising in the gravity valley for five years."

"Yang Shi and Li Wenqiang haven’t come out of the demon cave?"

"They shouldn’t be much longer." Zhen Yuan said.

After that, the two found a vacant space and set up their portable cave.

However, after not seeing each other for more than one hundred years, they didn’t immediately begin to practice.

Instead, they entered the Chaos Flame Space and double cultivated for three real months.

After coming out, they went to the gravity valley and began practising.

Unfortunately, their body cultivation was too high and the gravity valley wasn’t very useful.

In the end, they collected gravity stones and gravity grass.

With the grass, Shen Xu could prepare body refining pills and with the grass and stones, Zhen Yuan could arrange a gravity body refining formation.

However, the gravity grass was too young and couldn’t be used to arrange a level eight formation.

After thinking about it, the two planted the grass in the earth area of the Chaos Flame space and decided to wait for it to age.

In the meantime, Shen Xu used some of the gravity stones to refine gravity rings.

When that was done, Zhen Yuan engraved the rings with gravity runes, increasing their weight from ten thousand kilograms to one hundred thousand kilograms.

"Since the gravity valley can’t help us train, we will wear these gravity rings and spar with each other for six hours every day." Shen Xu said.

"Good." Zhen Yuan agreed.

Time passed and Yang Shi and Li Wenqiang exited the demon cave.

After that, the five hit the road.

At times, they travelled while looking for opportunities and at others, they entered the space to practice and spar with each other.

Ten years passed in the blink of an eye.

During the ten years, the five didn’t encounter any major opportunities.

However, they collected many spirit grasses, obtained many monster materials and completely stabilised their cultivation.

On this day, Shen Xu was stirring a pot of blue crystal fish soup and Zhen Yuan was drinking wine.

"How is it?" Shen Xu asked.

"Delicious." Zhen Yuan said, smacking his lips.

Shen Xu often brewed wine from peaches, cloud-seeking fruits, and other fruits growing in the space.

This time, he made wine from the iron heart fruits.

"I didn’t expect the iron heart fruit can be brewed into non-poisonous wine." Shen Xu said with a satisfied smile.

When he first got the fruits, he carefully extracted the core and used the fruit pulp to enrich the pure poison and light water.

Unexpectedly, several days ago, he stumbled upon a spiritual food refining method that could extract the poison from the iron heart fruits.

"It’s rich in spiritual aura. You should drink more." Zhen Yuan said and Shen Xu nodded.

"I will drink when I am done cooking."

As usual, the family shared a good meal of blue crystal fish soup, cloud seeking fox meat, striped purple cabbage, and black rice.

Later, they ate a variety of fruits, including cloud-seeking fruits, beauty beaches, blood peaches, marrow-cleansing peaches, qi-cleansing peaches, rejuvenating peaches, and red-veined loquats, before settling down with their favourite wines.

"This is the life!" Yang Shi exclaimed with a satisfied expression.

"The secret realm will close in less than one hundred and forty years. I hope we find another major opportunity before then." Shen Xu said in a worried voice.

Although their qi, soul, and body cultivation had improved a lot, Shen Xu didn’t want to waste their remaining years.

If possible, rather than retreat, he wanted to walk around and look for opportunities in the remaining years.

"It would be good if we encounter the spirit stones mountain." Feng Xue said and the others immediately agreed.

Their group was considerably poor after advancing to the void refining realm.

Now, even if they encountered a good cultivation resource, they wouldn’t be able to advance because they didn’t have enough spirit stones.

"The spirit stones mountain..." Shen Xu started but stopped when lowered voices reached his ears.
