ARTEFACT

'Whoever finds my hiding place in this Lowland Cultivator Realm, please meet me in the Heaven Realm with one of the items from the dimensional space I have created' -Moon Goddess

Lin Chen looked at the sentence written on the boulder's surface with a puzzled look, "Is she looking for a partner?" said Lin Chen, who stroked his chin slowly.

"What should I take?" continued Lin Chen, who searched all the rooms.

After several hours of searching, Lin Chen finally decided to take the Moon Goddess's Residence with him.

"Yi'er. Can you put that thing in your inventory?" asked Lin Chen, who was staring at the large Residence.

"Of course. This Residence belonged to a high level artifact, this Residence could be used as a sanctuary. Do you want to take it Master?"

Lin Chen smiled with satisfaction at Yi'er's explanation, "Of course", he said with sparkling eyes.

Yi'er took a few steps forward, and she stretched her arms forward. A bright green light could be seen in Yi'er's palm flying towards the Residence. A few seconds later, the entire Moon Goddess Mansion began to glow.

Drrttt…

Drrttt…

Drrttt…

The Moon Goddess Mansion started shaking violently, and the sizable Residence flew from the ground into the sky. Not long after, the Moon Goddess Residence began to shrink at a speed visible to the size of a palm.

Whew…

The dwindling Residence flew towards Yi'er's palm and then disappeared.

[Ding~ Congratulations on obtaining the Moon Goddess Artifact]

Lin Chen smiled in satisfaction as he opened the inventory.

They were once done retrieving all the resources and artefacts belonging to the Moon Goddess. Lin Chen decided to exit the dimensional space. They flew towards the front of the cave with Bai Hu being carried by Xue Ying.

Lin Chen was surprised when he was in front of the mouth of the cave. He looked around, looking for his travelling companion, "My horse... Where..." said Lin Chen, sitting down weakly.

Xue Ying turned to Lin Chen when he heard the word 'Horse' "Why is Master riding a horse? Can't Master fly to travel?" she asked in surprise.

Lin Chen got up and patted the little Xue Ying's head, "I don't know why either" answered Lin Chen seriously.

Gggrrrr…

"Oh. Are you asking me to ride you?" asked Lin Chen when he heard Bai Hu's snoring. He lightly stroked Bai Hu's head, "Hahaha… But your current body is still very small," continued Lin Chen.

They also continued their journey out of the cave by flying after not finding the horse they had been looking for around.

In contrast to using horses, which took more than 10 hours, they only needed 2 minutes to get out of the cave.

Before going to the next city, Lin Chen asked Yi'er to set up a high-level array so that others could not discover the Moon Goddess's Residence.

During the journey, they killed several wild animals. Just as they were about to continue their journey, Bai Hu, calm all this time, struggled from Xue Ying's arms.

Bai Hu jumped towards some of the beast corpses and clawed at them.

Lin Chen, who saw that, was naturally astonished, "Why him?" asked Lin Chen, who tilted his head.

"It seems that he wants to eat the core of a beast", Yi'er replied.

Cracks…

Cracks…

Just as Xue Ying had expected, Bai Hu instantly ate a small object the size of a baseball protruding from the beast's body.

Instantly Bai Hu's body shone and was slightly enlarged from its original size. He continued to look for another core and ate it again.

The process repeatedly happened until all the cores had been eaten away by him, and his cultivation had unknowingly increased.

Lin Chen was shocked when he noticed Bai Hu's change in cultivation, "When he was born he was already in the Qi Refinement Realm, but is now on the verge of reaching the Heavenly Path. If I know this, I will keep the beast cores from the Forbidden Land," said Lin Chen a little regretfully.

Lin Chen shook his head and found his new goal: search for beast cores to increase Bai Hu's cultivation.

"A moment. Can a Qi Energy Pill help Bai Hu increase his cultivation?" muttered Lin Chen as he took out a pill from his storage.

And, of course, Bai Hu, who smelled the Pill, immediately turned his head towards Lin Chen's hand. Without thinking, he jumped onto Lin Chen's body.

Lin Chen, who saw that swiftly caught Bai Hu and gave Bai Hu a Qi Energy Pill.

The previous process happened again, but this time the effect was greater, and Bai Hu's body growth progress was faster.

Bai Hu's previously only knee height was now almost at Lin Chen's waist or already as tall as Xue Ying.

Xue Ying, who saw Bai Hu's fast growth, was slightly annoyed with his puffy cheeks.

"Bai Hu, your growth is speedy. Will you allow Xue Ying to ride you?" asked Lin Chen, who rubbed Bai Hu's head.

Bai Hu, who heard Lin Chen's request, immediately walked toward Xue Ying and lowered his body to allow Xue Ying to ride it.

"S- Sir… I- I can walk on my own!" Xue Ying said, slightly annoyed, but her eyes flashed with desire.

Lin Chen, who saw Xue Ying's behaviour, just shook his head, lifted Xue Ying with both hands, and sat her on top of Bai Hu's body.

Xue Ying sat on top of Bai Hu's body with puffy cheeks, but when Lin Chen didn't see her, she smiled happily and hugged Bai Hu's neck.

They resumed their journey by adjusting Bai Hu's normal speed. Indeed at the current speed to reach the next city.

Hingshui City

After several hours of the long journey, a young man accompanied by a little girl and a tiger saw a large wall with a long line of people waiting in front of the city gate.

When it was the turn of the young man, who was none other than Lin Chen, to enter the city, he was intercepted by the guards or rather, the guards were shocked by the appearance of a tiger, "Sir guard, this tiger is my pet. You see, even my sister is sitting on it quietly," said Lin Chen hastily.

The guards who heard Lin Chen's explanation lowered their weapons, "Is he tame?" asked one of the guards who saw the White Tiger.

"Of course. Bai Hu, lower your head," said Lin Chen as he made a sign with his hand.

Grrr…

He heard Bai Hu's snoring and lowered his head as instructed by Lin Chen.

The guards who saw that breathed a sigh of relief and allowed Lin Chen and his party to enter the city after paying taxes.

The guards did not forget to warn Lin Chen to give his pet a necklace as a marker.

Lin Chen entered the city. He could hear the shouts of merchants everywhere, could smell the sweet smell of food from the gust of wind.

"Older brother. Yi'er wants to eat that, that, that, and that too," said the little girl sitting on the Tiger casually pointing at several food stalls.

Lin Chen choked when Xue Ying called him 'Big Brother. Indeed he referred to Xue Ying as his younger sister at the city gate, but Lin Chen never thought that Xue Ying would enjoy his role as a younger sister.
