Chapter 3259 - Dreamy Mermaid

Tianming reached the Suishen Cave not long after. After entering, Fen Nu no longer had to follow him and Suishen Zhao escorted Tianming to the Jiguang Sea. Suishen Zhao used a transmission stone to announce their arrival to Suishen Yao, so when Tianming arrived, he saw her from afar.

"Brother, I'm leaving. Good luck to you!" As soon as Suishen Zhao saw his sister, he turned and ran off in a hurry.

"Huh?" Tianming couldn't figure out what was going on! He could only brace himself and approach Suishen Yao.

Today, she was casually dressed, wearing a small white nightgown that exposed her smooth legs. She rubbed her eyes, looking as if she had just woken up. However, as soon as she saw Tianming, she perked up and glared at him. "What took you so long to come back? All my fighting spirit has almost burned out already!"

"That was some weak fighting spirit," Tianming helplessly said.

"Wow, after going home to show off, you got bold enough to mouth off to me?" Suishen Yao clicked her tongue.

"Mouth off?" Tianming glanced at her pink and tender lips... then looked up at the sky and said, "Wasn’t I supposed to help you cultivate? Let's get started."

Suishen Yao became anxious when he mentioned that and hurriedly grabbed Tianming's hand and tried to drag him away.

Unexpectedly, he activated his cosmoforce and stood firm.

"Eh?

Eh?"

Suishen Yao tugged a few times but couldn't move him. She turned back with her eyes wide and snapped, "What’re you doing?"

To be honest, she was a little confused. After the first pull didn't work, she used her foundationeer cosmoforce on the second attempt but still couldn't move Tianming. In the past, she could easily drag him along with just a little effort. But now she couldn't move him even with force!

"Nothing, just testing," Tianming chuckled. Now he understood that, after becoming an eight-level cosmic cartographer, the actual gap between him and Suishen Yao was only five levels. Once his lifebound beasts, totems, and wonders joined in, his current combat power was very likely to approach that of a foundationeer minor pathkeeper like Suishen Yao.

I should be at the level of the top ten on the Fortuna Ranking.

If it wasn’t for Suishen Yao's urgency, Tianming might have gone to challenge the top ten of the Fortuna Ranking today, as entering the top ten would reward him more and allow him to study the fortuna-class battle arts in the Myriadpath Steles.

But Suishen Yao was the priority now.

"She needs to reach the top of the Fortuna Ranking within the next ten months to gain freedom in her marriage. She’s pretty pitiful, so I'll help as much as I can." With that in mind, Tianming and Suishen Yao entered the Jiguang Sea together.

The sea was enclosed within a formation made of colorful auroras and resembled a giant, spherical gemstone set in the ground. It was the private territory of Eminent Jiguang. Tianming had to let Suishen Yao hold his hand to pass through the formation.

Of course, he could use his black arm, but that would be like trespassing. And if he saw something he shouldn't, he would have to gouge out his eyes.

"Wow!" Tianming looked around. The Jiguang Sea was breathtakingly beautiful. It was a sea of dreamlike shimmering light. The seawater was filled with midsky essence, and there was the rich fragrance of the Myriadpath Sourcespring. It was like the most perfect dreamland.

Jiguang’s namesake, auroras, were already the most beautiful form of light, but when combined with a shimmering sea, the multicolored water was stunningly beautiful.

"This is what it means to live in a fairyland, right?" Tianming murmured.

"You, a little nobody, want to live in my aunt's place?" Suishen Yao had just finished speaking when she looked at Tianming with a strange expression. "Sorry, I forgot you aren’t a little nobody anymore."

Tianming ignored her. He walked a few steps to the edge of the sea and scooped up some clear, transparent seawater. It was so clear and dreamlike that he couldn't help but take a sip. So fragrant, so sweet!

"Wow!" Suishen Yao covered her mouth in shock. "Did you... just drink it?"

"What?" Tianming asked.

"This is the bathwater my aunt’s been bathing in for over two thousand years!"

Tianming almost spat out all the blood from his internal organs in response. "Tell me next time," he gloomily said.

"I've also been bathing in it for hundreds of years," Suishen Yao said, covering her face.

Tianming felt a rush of blood to his head.

"What's the big deal? Men outside dream of drinking a sip of the Jiguang Sea," Suishen Yao teased. After saying that, she brought Tianming to fly over the shimmering Jiguang Sea, shouting, "Aunt, Little Li’s here!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the waves in front began rippling. In the dreamy light, Tianming thought a pink mermaid was leaping out of the water. Water rippled around the figure as wet hair clung to her body and water droplets fell from it. She was breathtakingly beautiful.

Tianming stared, wide-eyed. So gorgeous! The visual impact of the scene made his mind race, and his eyes heated up. Naturally, his dormant evil impulses had been stimulated.

"Don't stare!" Before he could react, he got a smack on the head from Suishen Yao, who glared at him with a hand on her hip.

"Okay, okay." Tianming quickly lowered his head, but even without looking, that stunning bathing scene had still stimulated his evil impulses, making the astrons in his body feel like they were on fire.

Fortunately, the mermaid-like Eminent Jiguang quickly dressed herself, covering her perfect figure in a long skirt. She approached Tianming and Suishen Yao.

"What, are you two lovebirds fighting?" Eminent Jiguang covered her mouth and chuckled, exuding charm.

"Absolutely not! I mean, no way!" Suishen Yao immediately flailed her arms and pounced on her aunt, saying, "I warn you, don't tease me. I brought him here to cultivate, not for some silly romance!"

"Okay, okay." Eminent Jiguang, fearing Suishen Yao might pull at her clothes, quickly held her back. She tossed her pink hair to one side, the fragrance of springwater blending with her scent and permeating the entire Jiguang Sea with a rich aroma. "Yaoyao, did you tell him the details?"

"No! I can't explain it well. You tell him!" Suishen Yao shouted. Her youthful, lively, quick, and fresh temperament perfectly complemented Eminent Jiguang. The two women were different, yet harmonious, and the sight of them floating above the Jiguang Sea was a stunning scene that countless people could only dream of experiencing.
