7 hours had passed since Ji Yuan and his team had entered the burning wasteland. 

Just as Ji Yuan and his team had crossed over a small hill, they spotted a burning lake in the horizon and there was a red profound animus that could be seen on an island in the middle the burning lake.

This caught the attention of Ji Yuan and the rest of his team immediately as this red profound animus was from an unknown spirit plant on the island. 

Although this spirit plant may seem like a profound treasure but most of the cultivators were unwilling to cross the burning lake to pluck it; it was because they could all sense a dangerous killing intent from the burning lake and on the island.

Shui Xisi however was excitingly saying to Ji Yuan, “Ji Yuan! Do you know what? I am in luck. That is red glow of the Nirvana Herb!”

Ji Yuan was startled as well, “Really? But that island looks dangerous. And how the heck can you cross over this burning lake in the first place?”

Shui Xisi giggled, “I want that Nirvana Herb for myself and for my Sister Feifei.”

“For my Jiajia too?” When Ji Yuan had heard that this Nirvana Herb was for Jiajia as well, he was excited too. 

Imagine the praises that Jiajia would heap on him for risking his life for her. 

He looked at Shui Xisi with a weak look, “How do we cross this burning lake in the first place? I can’t even hover with my present condition…”

Shui Xisi chuckled, “Follow me…”

When she had said that, she was already wrapped Ji Yuan’s arm to her body and she had displayed her profound aura in a burst of golden light as she lifted herself up from the floor.

This startled all the rest of the cultivators.

“She can fly?”

“Her profound animus is this strong?”

“This Maiden Shui Xisi is as strong as Ji Yuan?”

“Maybe she has a profound treasure?”

Hua Yunzi was greatly startled; she had never thought that this Shui Xisi could fly just like this. She had already suspected that she may be a formidable cultivator when she had cut down Huo Mingdi without a care of his powerful profound arts that were shielding him. But flying is impossible for the seventh realm cultivators as their profound animus are simply not strong enough. 

In another blink of an eye, Shui Xisi had disregarded the others and she had sped across the burning lake in her typical fashion; she did not even care if she has a team or not. 

Ji Yuan weakly shouted to his team that was left behind, “Don’t bother with us. Continue on your way first!”

As soon as Shui Xisi had sped above the burning lake, pillars of fire were spurting upward to pull them into it. 

But Shui Xisi simply waved her divine sword and she simply cut them burning pillars of fire away from her!

Actually, Ji Yuan knows that Shui Xisi was not flying with her profound aura but through her divine sword which was a true divinity sword. 

The very first time that he had fought with her, she could already fly mysteriously even though she had not displayed a strong aura around her.

So he chuckled to her, “Sisi, what a useful divine sword that you have here. You can fly when it pleases you. But don’t drop me halfway or I’ll be dead.”

Shui Xisi giggled softly to him, “So the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan will actually be afraid of heights?”

Ji Yuan: …

“I am not afraid of heights but the burning lake that is below us.”

All of a sudden Shui Xisi increased her speed across the burning lake and in another 3 blinks of an eye, she had already crossed the 50 miles of burning lake and she had dropped Ji Yuan to the ground while she fluttered gently on the ground.

Ji Yuan also landed lightly but he was frowning, “Do you have to throw me down like this?”

Shui Xisi frowned back, “Do you have any idea how fat you are? It is quite hard for me to take you along with me. Consider yourself lucky that I am dropping you on land instead of the burning lake.”

Ji Yuan bitterly said, “I am fat? Actually, I didn’t say I want to come along…”

Shui Xisi had jumped up a small cliff and giggled with great delight, “Follow me!” 

Ji Yuan protested immediately, “Why should I want to follow you?”

Although he had said that but when he saw that Shui Xisi had disappeared over the cliff, he quickly followed her. 

“Sisi, wait for me!”

Shui Xisi turned back to smile wryly at him, “Wait for you? Didn’t you say you don’t want to follow me? So why are you following me and asking me to wait for you instead?”𝒏𝒐𝗏𝔢𝑙𝞰𝑬xt.𝓒𝑜𝐦

Ji Yuan grinned, “I suddenly remember that I still need a transportation to get back across this burning lake. Haha…”

Shui Xisi giggled, “Not bad. You still remember this. If you are well behaved then I may consider getting you back across the burning lake…”

All of a sudden Ji Yuan had slapped Shui Xisi’s butt and he was grinning and he was pinching her butt too, “Sisi, I miss you. You look so beautiful in this attire. Now that we are alone, shall we exchange some passionate kisses?”

Shui Xisi pushed him away all of a sudden, “Ji Yuan, don’t touch me like this!”

Ji Yuan frowned, “What is wrong Sisi? I have always touched you like this…”

Shui Xisi looked a little flustered, “Ji Yuan, have you forgotten that we are in a trial and we are being watched by maybe a million people?”

All of a sudden Ji Yuan looked a little sheepish for he had indeed forgotten; he had suddenly remembered how he had stripped and changed his clothing earlier…

He awkwardly said, “Thanks for reminding me…”

All of a sudden Shui Xisi was feeling even more flushed too; it was because she had suddenly remembered that earlier Ji Yuan had changed into a new clothing as well…

He weakly said to her, “Then why didn’t you remind me earlier?”

Shui Xisi weakly said, “I forget and so did the others. We are all too immerse in the trial and forget that this is a trial that can be watched by the others…”

Usually, trials are secret and it is impossible to watch a trial from the outside. And most cultivators are too used to the privacy of the trials. 

Shui Xisi quickly forced herself to smile, “Let’s go and pluck the Nirvana Herb…”

JI Yuan muttered weakly as he stared at Shui Xisi’ butt and bosoms, “Yeah, right…”

Half of his excitement had faded away now.

–

In an unknown location of the Spiritas Tower. 

The dark apparition of the Trial Spirit was feeling frustrated for not able to kill Ji Yuan and there was little she could do to him at the level 2 of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris.

How could someone be able to survive so many profound purple lightning? This was already incomprehensible to her! 

Just as she had given up hope on killing Ji Yuan on this level, she was delighted that Ji Yuan and another maiden had entered a dangerous area in the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris. 

And she was smirking coldly now.

“This time round, this ugly of a man Ji Yuan shall be a dead man soon!”
