Another World Trip: Journey with My Cat and an Otaku Loli Goddess Chapter 215 - Let’s Split Up

“Aw… that’s nice. Now before we leave, how about we have Xiannu Liang heal Shen Ling before we run off and commit all sorts of anarchy.”

As soon as I said this, our collective attention turned to the Nymph in the room who nodded with newfound confidence.

****

“Alright give me a moment,” Xiannu Liang once more assumed the lotus position she held for the better part of a year. Gotta give the girl props cuz my legs fell asleep like five hundred times and I had to beat them like they cheated on me before I could do that again.

Plus, I got bored like way earlier, which is why my attention spanless ass was doing so many things. I blame social media for that.

D-D-Dum!

Her cauldrons burst into existence around her and we could feel the spiritual energy in the surroundings rushing towards them.

As soon as she was fully prepared, she nodded at Shen Ling and I’m pretty sure I lost IQ points when I saw the gesture.

“Oh my sweet summer child, when it comes to the display of intelligence you take the road less travelled don’t you?”

Her brows furrowed in confusion. “What are you—”

“She’s blind dear.”

Her cheeks reddened when I said that. Couldn’t say I felt bad about it. I swear I saw the same thing happen to Toph in Avatar more than once.

If this is what blind people go through on the daily, then they have my condolences.

Yaomu Shou didn’t say anything and wordlessly led Shen Ling over and sat her down with her back facing Xiannu Liang.

Whoosh!

Once they were ready, Xiannu Liang placed her hands on Shen Ling’s back and an eruption of energy exploded from her.

I won’t lie to you, Xiannu Liang was really not ugly and right now that was even more so the case.

Her green vine-entangled hair took on a lustrous glow and her porcelain-like creamy skin did the same. Her eyes shimmered with an emerald radiance that lit up the surroundings with a soft green radiance.

Her gentle energy could be seen moving from her to Shen Ling’s body before it collected in the area around the latter’s eyes.

Shen Ling’s eyes were closed at the moment, and her expression continuously changed. It would twist into that of pain then to relief, before shock took hold followed by a myriad of others.

Despite that, everything looked like it was going well, so I gave other things my attention.

I stored the corpse of the Monarch Gale Crow in my storage ring since I had a plan in mind as payback for what it did to Shen Ling. You all know I’m petty, don’t judge me.

As soon as that was done, I turned my attention to the EEDEE tree (you all should know why I’m calling it that) and a brazen idea came to mind.

Whoosh!

My spiritual force erupted and I could sense when everyone’s attention, barring Shen Ling and Xiannu Liang, shifted to me.

The tree and a decent amount of the earth around it trembled. I tried my best to wrap around the entire tree, but it was then that I learned how far its roots ran. Most of them went on for thousands of feet underground.

It’s a good thing my spiritual force far exceeds what my current realm would allow. Thank you cultivation technique and Heavenly Executions.

Once my spiritual force reached where it needed to go, I took it and the earth that it would need with it, which is a lot more than you’d think, and drew them over.

Hong!

I then activated my Kong-pow Million Kevin Sees Physique and slowly had the large tree enter my physique.

You all should have an idea of what I’m planning to do with this physique of mine, so I won’t even bother explaining myself.

I need to find a way to get things to grow faster cuz I sure as hell know that if we go by normal cultivation logic, I’d be long dead before any more fruit grows on this thing.

“Long Di y-you took the tree inside!?” Yaomu Shou was once more shocked by what she saw.

“Yeah, I did.”

I deactivated my physique before I went on. “I want to create a world inside me that’ll be like a cultivator’s paradise.”

Mina raised a brow in interest when I said that.

“You can do that!?” Yaomu Shou was once more blown away. If she was an old lady, she’d probably have a heart attack by now.

“Well, I want to, but I think it’ll take more work.” I wasn’t lying, creating an entirely new world from scratch inside me wasn’t going to be easy.

“Can you show me!?” Yaomu Shou said with a trembling voice.

Hong!

I found nothing wrong with that, so I summoned my physique again. I focused on where the Crimson Horizon Earth Flame was since I wanted that to act as the sun until I found a better replacement.

As of now, there was a large plain below the crimson sun. Half of it was pitch black and beset by a dark wind that flew ceaselessly over it. A white flower waved quietly on this dead plain, which made for an enchanting sight if I do say so myself. The death energy that it gave off was bone-chilling and potent.

The other half, however, was filled with grass and in its midst was a towering 500 ft tall tree that continuously radiated life energy. However, it was obvious at a glance that it was a far cry from what it radiated when it was outside my physique.

That’s probably because there is little to no spiritual energy inside my physique. I need to fix that somehow.

Oooh, maybe that’s what awakening my physique will cause.

“Incredible…”

Yaomu Shou was in front of me all of a sudden, and she ran her hand over my chest. I wonder if she knows that I’m still eleven, even in this weird space-time.

She slightly parted the top part of my robe and could see the plains I had created so far.

“Can I go inside too?” she absentmindedly asked.

“Good question. Let’s see.”

She was shaken out of her stupor. “W-Wait, see wha—”

“Hrngh… yeah, that didn’t work,” I told her.

“What did you just try to do!?” She pulled her hand back before clutching it to her chest.

Mina suddenly chimed in. “I’ve seen that face from him before. Mostly when he tried to pee himself back when he was a baby. Many days back then was my disappointment immeasurable, and my day ruined.”

“What!?” Yaomu Shou’s head swung to Mina before it snapped to me in disgust.

“Don’t give me that look. What, were you never a baby? I’m pretty sure demon babies pee themselves too, which is a line I never thought I’d say by the way. Anyway, it seems, and I would like to preface all of this by saying I’m eleven and if even I wasn’t, I don’t have the necessary tools, I am unable to take you inside me.”

“Yuck! And you were trying to drag me into that world!?” Yaomu Shou paled in fright.

I looked at her with genuine confusion. “You said that I should.”

“I was rambling to myself!” She said flabbergasted.

At that line, I shrugged before responding. “Well, you should ramble a little quieter. Anyway, it seems I can’t take a certain level of life inside me… yet. Maybe some of the limitations I have will be lifted when I fully awaken my physique.”

“This physique is heaven-defying,” Yaomu Shou commented.

“Glorified storage ring,” I told her.

“By the way, the explosion we heard when we just came out of seclusion, was that you?” Yaomu Shou asked out of the blue.

“No, we were already coming through the claustrophobia-inducing passageway by then.”

“Oh,” she responded. “Looks like others will figure out that spiritual artefacts are inside the magical beasts sooner or later.”

“Well, then it’s a good thing that we figured that out pretty quickly,” stated Jia Yan. “I wouldn’t mind getting my hands on an axe-type spiritual artefact.”

“I’d think it’d be best if we split up.” Yaomu Shou advised.

My brow rose at this suggestion. “Why?”

“It’ll allow us to cover more ground AND we’ll gain experience since we won’t always have people around us.”

“So how do we do this, then?” asked Jia Yan.

Yaomu Shou ruminated for a moment before she slammed her fist into her hand shortly after with a wide smile.

“I’ll travel with Long Di, you travel with Zi Yu, Mina travels with whoever she wants cause she’s a boss bit—”

“You’re damn right!” Mina interrupted.

“And Shen Ling travels with Xiannu Liang!” she finished.

“Fine with me,” I told her.

“Xiannu Liang, how you doing over there?” It didn’t look like she was anywhere near done.

“It’ll take some time I’m afraid. I’ll travel with Shen Ling. I shouldn’t have any trouble defending myself and her.”

“Mina?” I looked to our resident goddess.

“I’ll go with you.”

“Oh joy,” I uttered.

“It’s not because I want to be with you, it's because I want my manga!” she yelled in reply to my unceasing sarcasm.

“I’ll make sure to draw them on the way.”

“As you should!” she crossed her arms with an expression that rivalled that ‘hmph’ emoji.

“Then let’s do it!” Yaomu Shou stated.

We all exited the little clearing we found and as soon as we were out of the valley, we headed in separate directions.
