Chapter 888: Cantaloupe Island Epiphany
A gentleman does not care about his deeds.
Yu Shuheng really wanted Yu Wenxuan and Tushan Xiaoya to leave immediately because he didn't want to delay his search for opportunities. He understood their intention.
"Then be careful." Before leaving, Yu Shuheng couldn't help but remind Su Xiaoya a few words, his eyes full of worry: "Remember, you must be careful with what you say and do! Of course, saving your life is the most important thing."
It was really because Su Xiaoya's character was too careless. She was afraid that without her own protection, her true identity would be exposed accidentally, which would easily bring her into trouble.
Unfortunately, many things couldn't be said openly right now. Who knew if there were any other mysterious existences here? After all, none of them had discovered the Golden Dragon until he revealed himself.
Ugh!
Walls have ears, so be careful!
"I know! Grandpa!" Su Xiaoya naturally knew that Yu Shuheng was really worried about her, so in order to reassure him, she simply made a joke.
Sigh! It's all because there are too many Mahayana monsters. Lately, the Mahayana monsters that have popped up have been killing one after another, and it feels like there's no end to them.
Of course, the key point is that there are too many Mahayana monsters hidden on Qingyuan Star.
Alas! Ultimately, it’s because my cultivation is not good enough that I am restricted in everything I do.
However, I still have many backup plans, and naturally I have ways to save my life. Su Xiaoya took a deep breath and encouraged herself. Even if there were Mahayana cultivators on the floating island, I was not completely powerless to fight back.
Thousands of words finally converged into an encouraging look. Yu Shuheng looked at Su Xiaoya deeply, and this time flew to the "Island of Vitality".
Su Xiaoya watched Yu Shuheng successfully enter the "Life Island" before returning to the "Cantaloupe Island" and starting her own adventure.
Su Xiaoya strolled leisurely across the island, her gaze roaming around, carefully observing this mysterious island. For some reason, she felt a strange feeling: the shape of the island looked familiar.
Su Xiaoya stared at the floating island, pondering it for a long time. Suddenly, an idea flashed on her mind: Isn't the shape of this island like a giant cantaloupe? Or the kind that stands upright?
I don’t know if it’s because of preconceived notions, but the more I look at them, the more they resemble each other. Su Xiaoya couldn’t help but laugh.
It’s no wonder that Su Xiaoya would think this way. The appearance of the entire floating island is really too much like a cantaloupe - except that the background color of the floating island is lush green, while the cantaloupe is golden yellow.
Looking around, the floating island looks like a towering oval mountain, with waterfalls surrounding the mountain and dividing it.
At first glance, these waterfalls look just like the vertical lines on the skin of a Hami melon, dividing the melon evenly into beautiful shuttle patterns.
Looking up from the foot of the mountain, the waterfall is like a silver ribbon, pouring down from the towering mountain top, like the Milky Way falling from the sky, falling straight into the cold pool at the foot of the mountain.
Water splashed everywhere, and water droplets of all sizes danced in the air, as if playing a grand water symphony, which was breathtaking.
The gurgling sound of the spring water is like the sound of nature, clear and pleasant, as if nature is whispering its story.
The sound echoed in the mountains, interweaving with the roar of the waterfall, forming a beautiful symphony.
The stream in the deep pool sparkles and flows happily under the sunlight.
Cool water overflowed from the pool, like a group of lively children, jumping and playing, flowing past Su Xiaoya's feet along the winding stream, then winding away and disappearing into the distant jungle.
Under my feet is a green meadow. The grass sways gently in the breeze, as if dancing a happy dance.
And on this piece of grass, all kinds of flowers are blooming, including lavender, light yellow, pink blue, water red...
They may sway in the wind in large clusters, or bloom in clusters, or spread out one by one, which is fascinating.
Looking at all this, Su Xiaoya felt like she had entered a fairy tale world and couldn't help but be intoxicated by it.
Su Xiaoya narrowed her eyes slightly, tilted her head back, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled. She took another deep breath, feeling the fresh air.
The various floral scents in the air are either strong or light, but not pungent. Instead, they are more layered and intoxicating than the top, middle and base notes of high-end perfumes.
Su Xiaoya just felt happy, like a blooming flower, swaying gently in the breeze.
This kind of pleasure is not the kind of comfort that comes from being surrounded by rich spiritual energy, but the kind of whole-body relaxation that comes from breathing the fresh air after the rain, as if the whole person has merged into the embrace of nature.
Su Xiaoya has never experienced this state since she traveled through time.
Therefore, she was not in a hurry to look for opportunities, but strolled among the flowers, walking slowly, feeling carefully, and enjoying the tranquility of nature.
Before she knew it, Su Xiaoya had reached the foot of the mountain. She did not pause, but climbed up the steps step by step as if strolling leisurely in a garden.
The stone path, covered with scattered mosses, stretched to the top of the mountain like a winding stone dragon. The path was not wide, just enough for two people to pass by.
Fortunately, there was neither rain nor dew at the moment, so the stone steps were not slippery, as if they were a thoroughfare specially paved for her by nature.
The trees on both sides of the stone steps also rose higher with the height of the mountain, gradually rising from low bushes to higher and higher. By the time they reached the halfway point, these trees had become like giants towering into the clouds, at least 20 to 30 meters high.
The temperature in the mountains also dropped, and a breeze blew, mixed with a hint of water vapor splashing from the waterfall, like a layer of gauze, gently brushing her cheek...
Along the way, Su Xiaoya seemed to be in a world full of vitality and vigor.
Those flowers, plants and trees seemed to be given life, swaying gently in the breeze, as if they were dancing.
Every leaf and every petal seemed to have a soul of its own, dancing happily in the wind, like a group of lively elves, waving to her and welcoming her arrival.
Su Xiaoya was deeply attracted by this wonderful scene, and her mood became more and more cheerful.
She emptied her mind, strolled casually, and felt the beauty of nature. The troubles and worries in her heart were gradually left behind.
Su Xiaoya didn't notice that around her, circles of faint Dao rhymes were lingering. These Dao rhymes were like morning mist, looming, yet real.
At this time, Su Xiaoya was in a state of enlightenment.
Her mind became exceptionally peaceful, as if she had become one with the surrounding nature. Her vision gradually became more profound, allowing her to discern subtle details that were usually difficult to perceive.
She seemed to be carefully observing the mountain road under her feet, but also seemed to be looking at nothing. Her surroundings showed all kinds of wonderful changes like a mirage.
Sometimes, the mountain path seems unreachable, as if it were a world away; and sometimes, it seems to be compressed, and the once long distance can be covered in just a few steps - it is the legendary art of shrinking the earth into an inch...
Not only that, Su Xiaoya's figure was constantly changing. Sometimes, her entire body appeared exceptionally clear, and even the changes in her shadow on the ground were exceptionally clear—sometimes lengthening, sometimes shortening, sometimes overlapping...
Sometimes, Su Xiaoya's figure becomes blurry, like flowers in the fog, making it difficult to grasp, as if she has long disappeared from this space...
