God of Pets
Chapter 862: Where Is This Place?
Unable to understand Ji Changsheng’s preference, Chen Guan watched carefully for a while.
Indeed, it was a woman with skin like creamy jade, an exquisite face, so beautiful as if she radiated a sacred white light from her entire body.
Even though most of her body was submerged in the pool and couldn’t be seen clearly, just the part above the water confirmed that this woman was the epitome of perfection.
Those brows, that face, that skin, were truly one in a million.
"They say people of the upper class have some peculiar habits that are best kept unknown. Didn’t expect Ji Changsheng’s habit to be like this. I don’t know whose daughter he is secretly watching. Judging by her look and temperament, she must not be of poor descent, her age shouldn’t be too old, perhaps twenty or thirty years old..." Chen Guan pondered secretly in his heart while watching.
"It’s not that I want to watch; just want to see what kind of woman the Celestial King likes to spy on, to understand Ji Changsheng’s aesthetic." Chen Guan thought to himself.
He considered waiting until the woman finished her bath to scrutinize what the Celestial King’s spy subjects truly looked like.
But after watching for a long time, the woman merely lay in the pool with her eyes closed, as if asleep.
While Chen Guan joked about Ji Changsheng, he subtly felt that Ji Changsheng wasn’t idle, and there must be more to it than spying on women.
Just like before, if Ji Changsheng wanted to spy on women, with his capabilities, he could do it casually. Why did he make such a big telescope here instead of using a Secret Skill?
Clearly, there was some reason behind it.
Chen Guan researched a bit and quickly discovered a way to adjust the telescope’s direction. He adjusted the telescope, though the angle was quite limited, but capable of seeing some other things.
On the platform is a mountain wall, and below the platform is also a mountain wall. Moreover, the water in the pool flows along the mountain wall, forming a small waterfall.
Below the mountain lies a rolling Cloud Sea, its height unclear.
Unfortunately, the adjustment angle of the lens is limited, and only these could be seen.
Chen Guan adjusted the lens back towards the pool, finding the woman still lying with her eyes closed, bathing.
If her chest weren’t gently rising and falling in the pool, Chen Guan almost thought she was dead.
Chen Guan observed for a long time but couldn’t discern what Ji Changsheng was spying on.
"Could it be that Ji Changsheng was simply spying on women for a hobby, and after leaving, shared this hobby with me to prevent it from disappearing?" Chen Guan thought this idea seemed unreliable.
In doubt, he saw that the woman finally opened her eyes.
Whether it was an illusion or not, Chen Guan felt that when the woman just opened her eyes, intentionally or unintentionally, seemed to glance over here. Chen Guan even felt a momentary eye contact between them.
Though, because the time was too brief, and the woman’s gaze naturally moved away, Chen Guan couldn’t determine if the woman was really looking here.
"The telescope is directed at the pool and the woman, and this place seems like another peak. The woman should just be looking at this side’s peak." Chen Guan thought to himself.
Sure enough, after opening her eyes, the woman slowly got up, intending to leave the pool.
As her body emerged from the water, the clouds beyond the cliff automatically rolled, transforming into strands, falling onto the woman’s body.
The cloud threads swiftly wrapped around, in the blink of an eye forming garments, concealing the beauty of the woman emerging from water.
When the woman walked out of the pool, a cloud silk gown cloaked her figure completely, revealing nothing at all.
The woman turned and left, heading straight towards the mountain wall.
Chen Guan was pondering if there was some mechanism in the mountain wall when he witnessed something astonishingly shocking.
As the woman approached the mountain wall, the mountain wall began to move.
It wasn’t the mountain wall moving, rather the entire mountain was moving.
That towering peak seemed outfitted with pulleys below it, shifting left from the view of the telescope.
At this moment, Chen Guan realized that the woman’s bare jade feet hadn’t touched the ground, she walked on air, while the Cloud Sea below gathered below her feet, forming a straight cloud path to the distance.
The woman took steps ahead, as many grand mountains blocking the cloud path receded, clearing a road, allowing the cloud path to extend to a far virtuous peak resembling an ink landscape.
The woman walked along the cloud path, appearing light and effortless, not hasty, but soon, she was across two banks of mountains, disappearing into the towering peak.
The cloud path dissipated, the mountains returned to their places.
The telescope, once again blocked by the mountain peak with a platform and pool, could see no other scenery.
Chen Guan was utterly shocked. While Chen Guan had seen methods to move mountains before, such casually controlling mountains was still unimaginable.
Grand Saint is counted among the second-tier Secret Spirits in Ninth Awakening, and it too is proficient at moving mountains, but it must focus on the method to move a single mountain.
Yet this woman merely passed in front of the mountain, and mountains automatically moved, unimaginable such tremendous Divine Power.
While pondering this, he suddenly felt the Primordial Energy surge within the cave, visibly forming cloud-like and mist-like Primordial Energy entering through the cave cracks.
"This Primordial Energy... so pure... almost comparable to Nine Reverse Element’s Spiritual Power..." Chen Guan was surprised and delighted, then his expression changed.
He realized one thing: why was there no Primordial Energy entering the cave earlier? Perhaps because the woman was here, absorbing the Primordial Energy that should have been everywhere.
Now the woman left, and the Primordial Energy slowly returned to normal.
Thus, the current level of Primordial Energy in the cave was the normal level here.
Chen Guan had never heard, within the Great Cave Heaven, of any place where Free Elemental Energy in the world could reach such terrifying standards.
Chen Guan pondered a notion: "Could this place not be the Great Cave Heaven... but the... Celestial Secret Realm..."
Though this idea seemed fantastical, Chen Guan felt it extremely likely. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
Ji Changsheng was certainly not just a voyeur; setting up something like this here was definitely not merely for watching that woman.
"If this is indeed the Celestial Secret Realm, then who is that woman? She is clearly human, not a Secret Spirit. Why can she stand in the Celestial Secret Realm, and possess such formidable mountain-moving Divine Power, is this truly the Celestial Secret Realm?" Chen Guan’s thoughts spun, recalling Ji Changsheng’s encounter with the Spirit Devouring God bringing him to the Celestial Secret Realm.
Ji Changsheng didn’t seem to resist the Spirit Devouring God, which in itself felt peculiar.
"If this is the Celestial Secret Realm, then everything becomes understandable. Ji Changsheng already knew some details about the Celestial Secret Realm, which is why he entered it so calmly..." The more Chen Guan pondered, the more it seemed correct.
The Primordial Energy within the cave grew denser, packing the cave like clouds and wrapping Chen Guan like cotton.
