Starting My Cultivation With Time Management-Chapter 380 - 13 Really Cute
Chapter 380: Chapter 13 Really Cute
In the following days, “Xu Qiu” and “Feng Tong” wandered all over the Kunlun Mountain Range, annihilating all the encroaching Aquatic Clan members they encountered.
Of course, this was ultimately just an Illusion Domain. If these were the Zhu Rong clan from history, their average cultivation level would likely be at least Nascent Soul, with those not at Golden Core not even qualifying to be cannon fodder.
But within this Illusion Domain, all cultivators had their cultivation levels compressed to the “Foundation Establishment Realm”, and with his and Xu Yinglian’s far superior strength relative to their peers, they naturally swept through with ease.
But his junior sister was a bit too brute force about it, vomiting out the Crimson Feather Nine Phoenix Fire upon encountering rivers, steaming all the Aquatic Clan in them.
Normally, river environments were supposed to counter the Fire System…
Qiu Changtian also knew why she was angry, knowing that women in this respect often act on emotion, without any regard for reason.
He could only wait for her to vent and cool off before finding an opportunity to coax her.
After eliminating several river channels, Xu Yinglian’s mood significantly improved.
His junior sister’s personality was still very straightforward; as long as she won, she was happy, whether it was a sparring or real combat.
“Junior sister,” Qiu Changtian gauged that the time was right and suddenly called out.
“What?” Xu Yinglian replied irritably.
“Why do you think Feng Tong was willing to marry Xu Qiu?” Qiu Changtian asked with a light smile. “In terms of strength or background, Feng Tong was not weaker than Xu Qiu, right?”
Without a second thought, Xu Yinglian responded:
“What kind of question is brother asking? It’s naturally because of love.”
“I see,” Qiu Changtian feigned realization. “So, it means that when Feng Tong first met Xu Qiu, she didn’t understand him, and with such a great disparity in status and background, she likely had no thoughts about him.”
“As time went by and they grew closer, when the relationship deepened, she would have cast aside all those considerations she had originally.”
“What are you trying to say, brother?” Xu Yinglian instinctively asked, then immediately realized.
Brother meant that “when he first met her,” “he did not understand her,” and since she was from The Xu Family of Southern Heaven, with a “great disparity in status and background,” that’s why brother had “no thoughts” about her.
As for now, naturally, it was “after spending days together,” their “emotions had deepened.”
So her previously sullen mood melted away like snow beside a river, washed away swiftly, her whole being feeling much more relaxed.
Ah, brother’s hidden meaning, I’m afraid only I, who has such a rapport with him, could understand instantly, our hearts beating as one.
Seeing the beautifully clear and radiant smile finally return to Xu Yinglian’s face, Qiu Changtian secretly felt pleased with himself.
So easily sorted out, truly adorable, my junior sister.
As the two of them were exchanging tender glances, suddenly a roar that shook the heavens and earth exploded from afar.
Immediately after, the ground shook and the mountains quaked!
Qiu Changtian swiftly pulled out his Flying Sword, enveloping Xu Yinglian in its Sword Light as he shot upwards quickly.
Almost at the same moment, the spot where they had been standing was inundated by the surging river waters.
Together on the Flying Sword, Xu Yinglian and Qiu Changtian saw that below them, rolled billowing waves, an expansive flood, submerging vast areas of the Kunlun Mountain Range’s river valleys. For a moment, she even overlooked the fact that her senior brother was holding her in his arms, and exclaimed in shock:
“Is this Gonggong’s Divine Skill? The ability to mobilize the water from all five lakes and four seas?”
“It seems so,” Qiu Changtian said solemnly.
He saw that in the direction of the Kunlun Palace, a giant figure rose from the ground. It was the true form of Zhu Rong, invoking the Law of Heaven and Earth, with three heads and six arms, fiery red hair and blood-red pupils, bellowing into the distance.
Where his roar passed, flames sprang from nowhere, growing rapidly with the wind. Eventually, they turned into a boundless sea of fire, sweeping over the continuously surging Aquatic Clan.
Qiu Changtian looked out to find that the entire expanse above the Kunlun Mountain Range was engulfed in a sea of flames, countless mountains rapidly shrinking away.
It wasn’t just the ice at the top that was melting; even the rocky mountains below were being burned and melted layer by layer!
If the Kunlun Taiqing Sect were to be struck by this sea of fire, they would definitely have to activate their Protective Sect Array, and it’s still uncertain if they could withstand it… Only by asking Chi Song Immortal to take action would it suffice.
Sure enough, in the huge tide surging from the east, a giant with flowing beard and hair suddenly stood up.
The giant roared too, and the tide at his feet instantly rose dozens of feet, turning into a tsunami and wave that held back the boundless fire’s assault.
“Zhu Rong!” the giant bellowed as he charged through the waves, crossing several miles within a few steps and aiming a heavy punch straight at Zhu Rong’s chest.
“Gong Gong!” Zhu Rong caught his punch with a backhand, and the two giants grappled with each other’s arms, standing amid the surrounding mountains fracturing and the earth splitting.
Next to the two were endless seas of fire and towering waves violently colliding by the sides of the giants, soon creating a vast amount of high-temperature mist, and who knows how many cultivators nearby were steamed to death.
When immortals battle, mortals suffer. Qiu Changtian did not dare to be careless within the Illusion Domain and quickly maneuvered his sword light to distance himself from the battlefield.
“Senior brother, look quickly!” Xu Yinglian called out again, “The tide is continuously receding!”
Qiu Changtian took a closer look and indeed saw that the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers, originating from the Kunlun Mountain Range, had risen by an unknown multiple, and were now pouring toward the Divine Land in the east with terrifying ferocity.
Although he was within the Illusion Domain, he couldn’t help but think that the people of the Divine Land would likely suffer because of this.
“That’s why in the real history that came later, there was the story of Da Yu managing the waters,” Xu Yinglian casually noted.
“You are truly deserving of being my junior sister,” Qiu Changtian exclaimed, “I didn’t even think of that!”
Xu Yinglian then showed an extremely proud expression.
The two giants battled for an unknown length of time until finally, it ended with Gong Gong’s strength failing and him being forced to retreat.
Zhu Rong, however, was not willing to let him off so easily, he just roared towards the sky, then, along with his cultivator followers, pursued Gong Gong to the east.
Wait, what about the promised marriage?
Qiu Changtian and Xu Yinglian were both somewhat dumbfounded, but as the cultivators left the Kunlun Mountain Range, the Illusion Domain quickly collapsed and dissipated.
When they opened their eyes again, they realized they were lying on the floor of the palace.
“Guan Shui!” the Kunlun Mirror finally called out, “You’re back at last!”
“What happened to me just now?” Qiu Changtian asked in confusion.
In the Illusion Domain, no matter how he called, the Kunlun Mirror had not responded.
“You were lost in an out-of-body experience,” Kunlun Mirror sighed, “I have no idea where you went.”
“I told you they would be fine,” the Green Duckweed Sword said carelessly, laughing as it spoke.
After consoling the Kunlun Mirror a little, Qiu Changtian and Xu Yinglian helped each other stand up.
This place seemed to be a corridor within the Bright Palace, where the walls on both sides were adorned with various vividly painted murals depicting Great Shamans, red dragons, phoenixes, and many human race cultivators, diligently studying the Tao beneath the Kunlun Palace.
The next mural depicted the Aquatic Clan attacking from the East Sea, flooding the Divine Land and casting countless lives into catastrophe.
Qiu Changtian was amazed as he walked forward, holding Xu Yinglian’s hand, and then they saw the next mural, depicting Zhu Rong and Gong Gong fiercely battling in the Kunlun Mountain Range, almost causing the heavens to collapse and the earth to split.
Especially the terrifying sight of the sea of fire and the huge waves colliding, the two who had truly witnessed it in the Illusion Domain, couldn’t help but feel a resurgence of fear.
The last mural was of Zhu Rong leading his disciples of the Bright Palace, chasing across thousands of miles eastward.
Gong Gong, having no way out after his defeat, angrily collided with Mount Bu Zhou with his head, causing the Heavenly Dome to collapse.
In the end, Nuwa took the Five-Colored Stones for refinement, mended the sky’s fissure, and cut off the legs of the giant turtle to use as pillars for the four corners of the world, propping up the collapsed Heavenly Dome.

After viewing the mural’s little story, at the end of the corridor, they saw a vial of Elixir placed on a table.
