Chapter 17: Zi Xunyi’s Spring Dream
Immersed in cultivation…
Spiritual Power +1 +1 +1…
A soul body doesn’t experience fatigue!
After cultivating until dawn, Yan Zhen reluctantly released the now-limp Zi Xunyi. Feeling his strengthened Spiritual Power, he felt no guilt about their intimacy for the first time.
He wished it could continue, but he had to attend the entrance ceremony.
Yan Zhen patted his lovely companion and said, “It’s almost dawn. I have to go. Call me again in your dreams if you need anything.”
Zi Xunyi responded with a soft hum, kissed him gently on the lips, and watched as his form gradually faded.
Alone in the vast flower field, she sat on the swing, swaying silently, as if the passionate encounter was just an illusion.
Zi Xunyi sighed softly and withdrew from the dreamscape.
…
The Sacred Ground Academy was divided into the Inner and Outer Academies.
The Outer Academy was like a town, with complete living facilities, practically a “school city.”
The Inner Academy, across the river, was different. Massive square pillars stood at the four cardinal directions, connected by barrier walls, enclosing the entire Inner Academy.
From the Outer Academy, the Inner Academy appeared shrouded in mist, its true form hidden, mysterious. The only visible structure was the nine-storied “Celestial Dome Pagoda,” floating high in the sky. Intruding from outside was naturally very difficult.
The Inner Academy, situated on a hundred-zhang tall mountain, resembled a sect, with a strong mystical atmosphere.
Here, the academy’s elite students gathered. High-star Mystic Masters were numerous, and there were even hundreds of Mystic Generals listed on the “Rising Star List,” revered by all.
However, the strongest student in the Inner Academy wasn’t the top-ranked on the Rising Star List, but a mysterious and beautiful woman in purple.
She lived with the Inner Academy’s higher-ups, residing alone in a small building on the cliff edge, a secluded location. She rarely ventured out and kept a low profile. Ordinary students could only glimpse her elegant figure during important events.
The aura she exuded was only at the Mystic Master realm, yet she could repel the second-ranked student on the Rising Star List with a single palm strike. During a training expedition, she even used a violet-gold Extreme Flame to instantly kill a Tier 4 Mystic Beast. Her true cultivation was estimated to be between peak Mystic General and Mystic King. She was revered as the “Purple-Clad Goddess.”
In truth, she was indeed the Purple Extreme Goddess of the Celestial God Clan from the Eighth Continent, Zi Xunyi.
…
In the small building on the cliff edge, within the empty cultivation room, a soft moan echoed as Zi Xunyi slowly awoke.
She lay on the meditation cushion, her clothes disheveled, her hair messy, a light sheen of sweat on her forehead, her face flushed, her amethyst eyes slightly unfocused, and a lingering trace of passion in her expression. She was clearly aroused.
Because she had a long, incredibly vivid erotic dream.
In her dream, she met a handsome young man in a field of purple flowers. She called him “husband.” After they chatted on a swing, she straddled him and began moving her hips, kissing him passionately and doing everything she could to please him.
Again and again, as if insatiable, they made love on the swinging chair, her heart melting with pleasure.
Zi Xunyi desperately wanted to escape this dream, but she couldn’t, forced to watch “herself” and the unfamiliar young man entangled in passionate lovemaking.
After what felt like an eternity, the young man finally left, and she immediately withdrew from the dreamscape.
“Mm…”
Zi Xunyi sat up, her legs instinctively closing, the sticky sensation between her thighs making her uncomfortable, as she preferred cleanliness.
“I need a bath.”
She left the cultivation room, returned to her room on the third floor, filled the bathtub, gracefully removed her clothes and soaked undergarments, and stepped into the tub, cleansing her body.
“Why would I have such a shameful dream?”
As she bathed, she pondered, quickly recalling the previous “inner demon” that claimed to be her future self, reborn.
“Could it be that inner demon’s influence? But it has already been suppressed by the Jade Firmament Violet Fire.”
Zi Xunyi frowned, feeling a sense of unease.
She couldn’t clearly remember the dream’s details, but the young man’s face remained vivid in her mind, giving her a sense of familiarity. Yet, she was certain she had never met him before.
She was from the Eighth Continent and knew no one in Jiā Lán Continent.
“Husband? He looked much younger than me. Why would I marry him?”
Zi Xunyi wondered if he had deliberately manipulated her dream, but she quickly dismissed the idea.
Her soul was strong, and she was protected by the Jade Firmament Violet Fire. Unless the young man’s soul cultivation had reached the True Realm, the level of solidifying the ethereal, he couldn’t affect her in any way.
The True Realm of soul cultivation was comparable to a Mystic Ancestor, the level of a Dean. There was no such person in the academy.
Moreover, True Realm soul cultivators were even rarer than Mystic Ancestors. They were few even in the Eighth Continent, let alone Jiā Lán Continent.
“Sigh.”
Zi Xunyi sighed. She had recently started cultivating the Spiritual Union chapter, her soul wandering between the ethereal and the tangible. She had hoped to find a kindred spirit, someone she could connect with, to make her life less monotonous. She hadn’t expected it to turn into an intense erotic dream.
Had she made a mistake in her cultivation? That shouldn’t be possible.
“Could that young man be a student in the academy?”
Thinking of this, Zi Xunyi got out of the bathtub, dried herself with Mystic Power, changed into a clean purple dress, and left the building, heading towards the Dean’s office.
The position of Inner Academy Dean was currently vacant, and all matters were handled by the Vice Dean and the Grand Elder. The Dean’s office was empty and locked.
However, Zi Xunyi had special privileges. She opened the door to the office and started searching through the student records.
She used her Spiritual Power, a light shining from her forehead, quickly scanning through all the files.
After searching through everything, she couldn’t find any information matching the young man.
“Not a student? Or… not in the Inner Academy?” Zi Xunyi pondered, then suddenly remembered that it was the time for new students to enroll. “A student from the Outer Academy?”
—I should go take a look.
Normally, students weren’t allowed to leave the academy except during specific holidays or training expeditions, but Zi Xunyi, with her Hidden Realm soul cultivation, could project her spirit.
She returned to the cliffside building, sat in her room, and projected a spiritual avatar.
Half an hour later, Zi Xunyi’s spiritual avatar appeared in the Outer Academy and headed towards Yu Heaven Pavilion to meet the Outer Academy Dean.
Arriving at the Dean’s office, Zi Xunyi politely knocked on the door and entered after hearing a response.
Only Dean Yu Qing was inside, reviewing a document. Seeing Zi Xunyi’s spiritual avatar, she was slightly surprised, put down the parchment, and said, “Lady Zi Ji, what brings you here?”
The Outer Academy Dean and the Inner Academy Grand Elder were sisters. Zi Xunyi had met her a few times and said directly, “Dean Yu Qing, I’d like to see the records of the new students. Is that possible?”
