They Really Were on a Date

"Happy?" Lu Qing'an saw joy in Xue Tianfei's eyes and thought that his little trick had amazed Xue Tianfei.

Without realizing it, he began to care a little about Xue Tianfei Xue Tianfei's opinion of him, and started to be more willing to show off his charm to her.

Xue Tianfei laughed and said, "Of course I'm happy! I'll remember this moment for the rest of my life!"

Lu Qing'an shook his head and smiled, then said, "Alright, let's get back to the main topic. The Cultivation-Devouring Water here isolates Divine Sense. One of us will look to the left, and the other to the right. If you see the Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus, let me know."

The Cultivation-Devouring Water here is even more effective at isolating Divine Sense than the Frost Crystal. Even someone like him, who has cultivated his soul strength to the highest level in the Demon Domain, cannot probe very far inside.

It's a pity that no matter how strong one's cultivation is, it cannot affect the soul. He should cultivate his soul more when he has time in the future.

Xue Tianfei nodded seriously.

She naturally hoped to hold Lu Qing'an's hand forever, but the thought that the longer Lu Qing'an stayed here, the more his cultivation would diminish made her feel a little heartbroken.

Lu Qing'an held Xue Tianfei's hand and flew downwards.

Along the way, they also saw some Great Emperor Realm searching for the Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus in the Cultivation-Devouring Water.

Each of them held a Jade Slip containing an array formation. If their cultivation level could not withstand a significant reduction, they would be teleported away.

Several people then teleported away and disappeared from Lu Qing'an's sight.

"If people can reach this depth, it seems we'll have to go to even deeper waters to have a chance of finding it."

Lu Qing'an pulled Xue Tianfei along and flew down rapidly again.

In the blink of an eye, they arrived five miles deep.

Here, he could no longer see any people at the Great Emperor Realm.

This depth was something even he had never reached back then.

The rate at which his cultivation level was decreasing had increased a hundredfold.

He didn't care about the diminishing effect; even if he soaked in it for a day and a night, it wouldn't necessarily reduce his cultivation by half.

"Qing'an! Look! Isn't that the Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus!" Xue Tianfei had sharp eyes. She was looking to the left and saw a dark light flash in the distance. She immediately reminded Lu Qing'an.

Upon hearing this, Lu Qing'an looked in the direction Xue Tianfei pointed, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

That's really true!

In the depths of the dark Cultivation-Devouring Water, the Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus suddenly appeared like a strange, dark light.

Its lotus petals are translucent, with fine, purplish-black patterns flowing along the edges, as if they could devour all the surrounding light.

He appeared there in a flash, accompanied by Xue Tianfei.

At this moment, the two were only one step away from the Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus.

Upon closer inspection, a wisp of pure white mist can be seen condensing at the heart of the Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus, sometimes contracting like Star Vortex, sometimes expanding like ripples, resonating with the devouring properties of the Cultivation-Devouring Water, producing subtle tremors.

The entire black lotus has no roots or stems and floats in the water. Its nine petals open and close at an abnormally slow speed, each time they unfold, they bring up a string of tiny bubbles. When the bubbles burst, they silently dissolve into the water.

A strange vacuum zone formed three inches around the lotus body, causing even the Cultivation-Devouring Water to retreat, leaving only a thin, veil-like aura of pale blue light enveloping it.

Lu Qing'an's lips curled up. "Looks like we're not too unlucky, of course, it's also because you have sharp eyes."

When Xue Tianfei was praised like that by Lu Qing'an, her fair and delicate face immediately turned slightly red.

He praised me again!

"Yes, let's keep looking and see if we can find more so we can prepare one for each of Miaomiao and Zixuan!" Xue Tianfei said with a smile.

Lu Qing'an smiled and nodded.

He created a barrier to envelop the entire Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus, while simultaneously channeling a large amount of his cultivation into the barrier to maintain the Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus's survival.

After leaving the Cultivation-Devouring Water, the Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus was like a fish out of water; without any cultivation to absorb within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, it would wither instantly.

After confirming that he had inputted enough cultivation to sustain the Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus for a whole day, he then controlled the Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus to stay around himself.

Directly storing the Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus into his treasure space could easily lead to accidents, causing Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus to wither. Keeping the Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus by his side and monitoring it closely will better maintain its condition.

We must do our best to prevent any problems from occurring with each Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus.

Then, he continued to hold Xue Tianfei's hand and slowly flew downwards.

About fifteen minutes later, Lu Qing'an finally saw a Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus in front of him, but a thought flashed through his mind, and he pretended not to see it.

Until Xue Tianfei's voice rang out.

"Look! There's another one over there!" Xue Tianfei exclaimed in delight.

Lu Qing'an laughed and said, "It has to be you again."

Xue Tianfei covered her mouth and chuckled.

So happy!

He used the same method to collect the Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus.

"We have two now, it would be best to find four more. We're counting on you!" Lu Qing'an looked at Xue Tianfei with a gentle smile.

Xue Tianfei raised her chin slightly. "Don't worry! I have sharp eyes! I'll make sure you find enough!"

Lu Qing'an smiled, then continued to hold Xue Tianfei's hand and flew deeper into the distance.

And so, one Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus after another was found by them.

Each one was discovered by Xue Tianfei.

From the moment she found the first Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus, Xue Tianfei's smile never faded; it was even more beautiful than the blooming Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus.

The same applies to Lu Qing'an.

"We already have six plants! Do you want to find more?" Xue Tianfei asked with a smile.

The two had already traveled ten miles into the depths, but still hadn't reached the deepest part of the Demon Nether Cultivation-Devouring Abyss.

"Let's look again, find one more, and exchange it with Zhou Ningtian for the Eye of the Yellow Springs," Lu Qing'an said.

"Alright! But are you sure about your cultivation level...?"

Before Xue Tianfei could express her concern, Lu Qing'an laughed and said, "Don't worry, this amount of cultivation reduction is too little; I won't even blink."

"Alright then! I'll keep trying!" Xue Tianfei said, smiling as she widened her eyes and continued looking around.

Lu Qing'an smiled and led Xue Tianfei deeper into the distance.

He also took the opportunity to measure the exact depth of the Demon Nether Cultivation-Devouring Abyss.

As they ventured deeper, they encountered another Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus.

The quantity is sufficient.

But Lu Qing'an didn't stop; he kept flying downwards.

In this way, more and more Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus were discovered by them.

At this moment, fifteen Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus were floating behind Lu Qing'an!

If anyone else had seen this, they would have been absolutely stunned.

Others search high and low, but can't find even one. He's only been here a short time, yet he's already found so many. It's enough to make anyone envious to tears.

"Qing'an, do we still need to search? It seems like we have enough. Or would you like to test just how deep this Demon Nether Cultivation-Devouring Abyss is?" Xue Tianfei asked.

Lu Qing'an smiled and said, "Don't you want to know the answer?"

Xue Tianfei pursed her lips. "I want to know, but I'm afraid something might happen to you."

"Don't worry, this place can't do anything to me. It all depends on whether you trust me."

"Of course I believe it! Then, let's stop searching for the Dao-Devouring Mystic Lotus and measure its depth directly!"

"Okay, hold on tight."

"Hehe, you've been holding on very tightly!"

She even thought that even if she left this place, she couldn't let go of that hand.

It would be best if both hands could be welded together!

"Alright, let's go!" Lu Qing'an smiled, a glint in his eyes, and then flew at full speed into the deeper part of the cave.

In the blink of an eye, the two transformed into streaks of light and swooped down.
