Falling in Love to Escape the Original Book Plot [BL]-Chapter 146: Demon Plants Forest 25

"It’s a hot spring." Shen Xu happily exclaimed.

He hadn’t been in a hot spring since he arrived in the Canglan continent.

Because of this, he couldn’t help but be excited when he saw the steaming hot spring.

"More than that. It’s a medicinal hot spring." Lin Xiang was also excited.

"The secret realm will close in one week. Let’s spend the remaining time here." Zhen Yuan suggested and the other two immediately agreed.

After that, the three pitched two tents- one for Lin Xiang and the other for the couple.

In their tent, Zhen Yuan looked at Shen Xu with a meaningful expression.

"Do you like hot springs?" He asked.

"Very much." Shen Xu nodded and quickly continued.

"My mother and I used to live near a hot spring resort. We liked to go there every few weeks." The double said with a nostalgic look.

Seeing this, Zhen Yuan rubbed the person’s hair, trying to comfort him.

"Xiaoxu, I can dig a hot spring for you if you want." Zhen Yuan offered and Shen Xu couldn’t help but be surprised.

"What do you mean?" He asked.

"The medicinal hot spring has three eyes. We can transfer one eye into the space."

"Eye?"

"An eye is the source of a spring."

Shen Xu was excited when he heard this and eagerly grabbed Zhen Yuan’s arm.

"I want." He said.

"Okay." Zhen Yuan smiled before he continued.

"I will dig a hole first and then transfer the medicinal spring eye."

"I will help." Shen Xu immediately offered but soon frowned.

"What about the spring outside? Will it be affected?"

"It will be affected." Zhen Yuan confirmed but quickly explained.

"It won’t affect the quality of the hot spring but it will increase the recovery time after use."

Shen Xu nodded when he heard this.

After that, the two didn’t directly enter the space.

Instead, they removed their outer robes and went to the hot spring.

When he entered the hot spring, Shen Xu sighed in comfort.

’So comfortable.’ He thought and unconsciously closed his eyes.

Seeing this, Zhen Yuan smiled and also relaxed.

Although the hot spring had a medicinal effect, the effect was limited to relieving fatigue, and relaxing the mind and body.

Still, the three thoroughly enjoyed the hot spring.

"I could live here." Lin Xiang said in a lazy voice.

"Me too." Shen Xu agreed.

However, they couldn’t soak all day.

When not soaking, Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan entered the space to practice, read, and dig a hot spring pit.

Forty space days later, a five square metre pit appeared beside the bamboo hut.

Seeing this, Shen Xu nodded in satisfaction.

"What now?" He asked.

"Transfer the medicinal spring eye and bury it in spirit stones." Zhen Yuan answered.

"Bury it in spirit stones? How many spirit stones?"

"At least three hundred million." Zhen Yuan said and Shen Xu nodded in understanding.

Although he was reluctant to consume so many spirit stones at once, Shen Xu knew what was what.

With the spirit stones, he and Zhen Yuan could more easily relax and relieve their fatigue.

"When should we do it?"

"The spring eyes are at the bottom of the hot spring. It doesn’t require much effort to transfer one into the space."

"Okay." Shen Xu nodded.

When they returned to the hot spring, Zhen Yuan chose the best eye and directly transferred it to the pit in the space.

The next day, he and Shen Xu filled the pit with spirit stones.

However, after adding the spirit stones, a fog suddenly appeared in the space and the two felt a faint rejection.

"The space is about to upgrade." Shen Xu excitedly said but soon calmed down.

"Brother Yuan, hurry up and grab everything we need." He anxiously said while pulling Zhen Yuan into the hut.

An incense stick later, the two were ejected from the space and instantaneously appeared in their tent.

"What happened?" Zhen Yuan asked.

"We won’t be able to enter the space while it’s upgrading." Shen Xu said and Zhen Yuan couldn’t help but frown.

"How long will it take?" Zhen Yuan asked.

"At least ten days." The double answered and Zhen Yuan’s frown deepened.

"What’s wrong?" Shen Xu asked.

"The secret realm will close in two days." Zhen Yuan said and Shen Xu immediately understood.

"The Dry Mist empire Xiao family will likely be waiting for us at the exit. Without the space, we will lose one escape route." He said and Zhen Yuan nodded.

"Xiaoxu, I can deal with one mid-stage nascent soul realm cultivator. We will have to escape if there are more."

"Not necessarily." Shen Xu smiled.

"What do you mean?"

"Isn’t there a card we haven’t played?" The double asked and Zhen Yuan nodded after thinking about it.

"There is that card. However, there is no guarantee we can play it as soon as we exit the secret realm."

"True." Shen Xu agreed.

"I have prepared five teleportation formations. One each in our room at the academy, the Sunrise Forest, a courtyard in Dragon city, the black turtle mountain, and a cave between dragon city and the Divine rainbow academy. Where do you want to go if we need to escape?" Zhen Yuan asked but Shen Xu didn’t answer right away.

Instead, his brows creased and he carefully considered the options.

"Assuming we can’t play the card because the people are not there, I think our room in the academy. Otherwise, the courtyard in Dragon city." He finally said.

"I also think so." Zhen Yuan agreed.

They only had one year before they had to leave the Canglan continent.

Considering that, they had to stay in a place they could easily access information.

"It’s decided then." Shen Xu said.

"Xiaoxu, I have something for you." Zhen Yuan said with a complicated look in his eyes.

At the same time, he removed a box from his storage ring and handed it to the double.

"What is it?" Shen Xu asked but Zhen Yuan didn’t answer.
