101 Cultivation Earth

Name:The God Virus Author:MadReader
Witnessing the rift opened further from Earth than last time, the golden beauty promptly found it odd as she questioned, "Master, why aren't we opening a rift like the last time? And where are we going exactly?"

Hearing these inquiries, Virus began explaining patiently, "There is a reason behind this actually, the previous time we entered the portal when we went to the Cultivation Multiverse of Qi, I actually didn't know that an Earth exists on the other side too... because... in my own original time, there was no Earth in the Cultivation Multiverse of Qi. Now I'm not sure why it didn't exist in my original time, maybe something will happen in the near or far future that makes it destroyed, or maybe it's an anomaly related to time which I'm not aware of or something different altogether..."

Listening to the explanation, the golden beauty confusedly inquired further, "What... what does this all have to do with my question, master?"

Looking into her eyes, he responded, "It has a lot to do with your question lil Belle. You see, if I knew that Earth exists on that multiverse, I would've never opened the portal on our own Earth and pop out on the other one... because first of all, I have no idea how strong the cultivators on that Cultivation Earth is and I have no knowledge of them at all... Secondly, even though this is very unlikely, but if they are powerful enough in their cultivation they would be able to sense the opened rift at least, because I can only make the spaceship invisible and cloaked, which means that the rift we open is completely visible even to the naked eye."

"But why does it matter if we are cloaked master? I mean, either way, they won't be able to find us..." After hearing the explanations, the golden beauty still couldn't grasp the reason behind this situation as she pondered, 'If we are cloaked and unable to be found... why does it matter if they find the rift?'

"Well, that's true, but if by any chance they are at a stage where they are able to sense the rift, they will start suspecting things if these rifts continue to be opened near them." Virus clarified his reasoning further.

"And let me tell you, some of these cultivators are smart people with powerful analysis capabilities, so if they start to suspect the rifts, then the measurements they would take are unknown. For example, they might instantly attack the rift the moment it opens, which would expose us." Virus concluded.

"I see... I think I understand now master... so that's why you opened the rift further from Earth." The golden beauty uttered with a glimmer of comprehension passing through her eyes.

Virus delineated more, "Yeah, because like this the odds of the rift being found is lower even if they have the capability to sense the rift as it's far away."

Then, returning to her other question, he continued, "It's good that you have a grasp of the situation now... also, you asked me where we are going previously... well, our destination is currently unknown. But if I wanna answer that in a simple way... we are just going to roam this Cultivation World of Qi to find the 'Brisk Balance Fruit'."

"Now... let me turn the Scanner on, so the moment we are close by to the 'Brisk Balance Fruit' it would notify us." Virus stated further as he began turning the scanner on while inputting the data and characteristics of the object he needed.

By now, they were on the other side of the rift, but without stopping in front of it, the spaceship just continued its path which was horizontal to the Cultivation Earth.

A couple of minutes later, the moment he had inputted enough data to the Scanner, it started beeping as a 3D map showed itself above the Scanner with a red dot blinking somewhere in the map.

Hearing the beeping sound the moment he inputted the data and seeing the red dot blinking on the 3D map, Virus was surprised and a little startled as his eyes went almost wide-opened.

"No way we are this much in luck..." After being startled for a short moment, Virus opened his mouth in surprise.

"What happened, master?" The golden beauty beseeched witnessing her master acting astonished.

"It seems we're in luck lil Belle, the Scanner is pinpointing the location of a 'Brisk Balance Fruit' near us.... hmm, it's... on the Cultivation Earth... but this 'Brisk Balance Fruit' is supposed to be a rare object..." He began clarifying the situation to the golden beauty again while also pondering to himself at the same time.

"Does that mean we're gonna go back soon?" The golden beauty queried.

"Well, we need to go see where it is first before trying to answer that question, but... probably yes." Virus replied uncertainly, then changed the direction of the spaceship toward the Cultivation Earth.

Sometime later, the spaceship was hovering invisible and cloaked exactly above an enormous pagoda which was made on a mountain range.

There were other smaller pagodas too in the distance or close to the enormous pagoda. Also, there were lots of people who were walking around on the mountain range.

There were some caves too in some places on the mountain range to which some people were commuting to and from.

Currently, inside the spaceship, Virus was looking at the red dot on the 3D screen which was pinpointing somewhere in the middle of the enormously long pagoda.

After staying silent for a short while, he breathed a helpless sigh and voiced, "It seems this won't be as easy as I thought."

"Why master?" Like always, the golden beauty was curious to understand what her master meant by his words.

"Well... you see, it seems this place is a sect or a cultivation school of some sorts, so we can't just go and take the 'Brisk Balance Fruit'." Virus patiently explained to her as usual.

Listening to this, after pondering on the matter for a short period of time, she inquired further, "Can't we just sneak in and steal it from them then run away with the spaceship?"

The moment the rift had opened, Virus was already a long distance away from the rift.

The rift was still opened for a while after they were gone as there was a deadly silence around the rift which was in the middle of space with no one around.

However, this silence didn't last long, because soon, someone appeared beside the rift all of a sudden, looking silently at the rift which seemed to be closing as more time passed.

After a while of silence, he eventually opened his mouth breaking the absolute silence around him, "This rift opened once again... what's going on?"

Oddly, he could speak even in vacuum space as his voice spread to the space around him. If anyone else was around, that person would also be able to hear his voice very clearly.

"This can't be a coincidence... something suspicious is going on here and I need to figure out what that is as soon as possible." He continued.

From his looks and features, he seemed to be a very old man with long hair and a long beard, both as white as snow.

Amazingly though, he appeared to be entirely healthy while exuding a very ancient aura from his entire being, especially his eyes.
