Maybe My Soulmate! (GL)

As Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing stepped towards the 81st step, the whole surroundings around them seemed to have turned to sharp icicles which felt like they were trying to penetrate directly into their skin making them feel threatened.

And as this threatening feeling increase, they also felt that the gravity around their feet seems to have increased more than 20 times than before.

All of it was a sudden change that surprised them a little but except for the initial surprise, they didn’t feel much difference as the power difference between them and the level of cultivators for who this trial was based on simply couldn’t compare.

They both took a few seconds to adjust themselves to the current situation and immediately took another step.

Just like that, Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing continuously stepped forward towards the hundreth step where the door exists and it took them almost 5 minutes to reach there.

But at the 100th step, surprisingly the threatening oppression disappeared completely and both Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing felt a very rich light energy floating through them making them feel particularly reinvigorated.

After reaching the 100th step, Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing directly went towards the door and pushed it open but before they could see anything on the other side, they were suddenly pulled in by a suction force as their sight went black for a moment before they both appeared in another place.

They quickly took a look around to see their surroundings and it seemed like they were in a forest as all around them was towering trees and they could even hear and see many small animals around them.

Just then, a strange mechanical voice sounded again which was clearly different from the voice usually said by guardian spirit,

”Congratulations for clearing the ’Elemental Trials.”

Except this simple sentence, the voice didn’t say anything and Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing couldn’t help but look around each other.

There was nothing special about this place and it looked just like a normal forest and with their senses, they also found that there wasn’t any spiritual beasts present at all.

As they looked around and found nothing special, the only thing that gave them a very weird feeling was a clear pond right infront of them in a very close distance.

They looked towards the small pond and found that the water in it looked extremely clean and even the reflection on it felt like a mirror.

Su Yubing looked towards Mo Yuxin and said,

”What’s happening? We didn’t hear the guardian spirit anymore.”

Hearing her question, Mo Yuxin also shook her head as she also didn’t know what was happening.

And just when they were wondering about their current situation, they suddenly heard an awkward footstep coming from behind them which immediately made them get into a defensive stance.

And when they turned around, they found to their suprise that there was actually mechanical golem made out of wood walking towards them!

This golem even had a white fake beard hanging on his square shaped face and his mechanical arms kept stroking this beard like a habit!

Suddenly seeing that Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing were looking at him with inquiring eyes, he stroked his fake beard a few more times, just like an old man and gave out a hearty laugh but this time his voice seemed extremely normal, almost exactly like an old man!!

Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing already had a quess as to who this is but suddenly seeing the guardian spirit appearing before them with this appearance, they couldn’t help but feel a little funny.

”Hohohoo.... It seems you two have already guessed who I am?

Yes, It is I, the guardian spirit of the trials and you can also call me ’Old Man Jun’. Back in the day, the young ones always used to call me this.”

Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing listened to his words and also noticed the visible longing in his voice when talked about the distant past.

Even though, he was in a golem form now but his voice itself seemed soothing to the ears as the boundless wisdom contained in it can be felt clearly.

At this point, Mo Yuxin couldn’t help but ask,

”Where are we now, Old Man Jun?”

Hearing her question, Old Man Jun looked towards her and answered in the same tone but this time, he obviously had more excitement in his voice,

”Hohoho... This is a surprise for you two that I’ve prepared after consulting with the remaining consciousness of the creators and they have all acquiesced to let you use this specially created place.

As for what this is, I will only say one thing, this pond which may seem ordinary contains the heavenly laws comprehend by all the creators of the elemental territory you two cleared before. Haha.... Aren’t you two excited??”

Hearing her words, Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing were surprised at first but became a little confused and couldn’t help but ask,

”So, how many heavenly laws are contained in this pond?”

”Hoho... As you have encountered a total of eight elemental territories and each one of them were created by eight different experts among the creators who had an extremely high attainment in each of those elements.

And now, those eight experts have left an accumulation of their respective heavenly laws which they had comprehended in their life time.

But whether you can comprehend any of the laws contained in it depends entirely on you.”

A lot of information was thrown towards Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing but they accepted all of it quite calmly.

But the matter of heavenly laws still made them excited. After all, comprehending heavenly laws depends entirely on a Cultivator’s dao but if an expert gives pointers, it becomes a lot less difficult to comprehend it.

The heavenly laws are the epitome of a Cultivator’s powers. If you have comprehended any heavenly law, it not only means that your achievements towards it is extremely good but also means that you can exert a lot more power with the same effort as before.

Everything has its own heavenly laws, but the heavenly laws related to one’s elements are extremely important.

After all, every cultivators has one element that is dominant and must be the main path of cultivation. And to access more power from that element, you must comprehend the heavenly laws related to it.

There are very few written records about heavenly laws and even less known about how to acquire it.

All the Cultivators forge their own way and comprehend heavenly laws when a certain attribute reaches the limits of them but when they try to break through that limit is when they comprehend the heavenly laws.

After sorting out their thoughts, Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing were ready to comprehend the heavenly laws but Mo Yuxin asked suddenly,

”Is this the end of the trials or are there more trials ahead?”

Hearing her question, the guardian spirit answered,

”Hohoho..... This is not only your last trial but also the reward of the trials of the forebears. After all, getting a chance to comprehend the heavenly laws from the top experts themselves is an opportunity that the whole world would die for.”

”After you have completed this trial meaning if you can successfully comprehend one heavenly law, then you two as the Inheritors would be able to recieve the whole ’Shenghuo Menkou’ as your other reward.”

The guardian spirit again said another thing which surprised them but Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing took only a moment to accept it.

After that, the guardian spirit congratulated them before he disappeared from there in a space crack.,

”Anyway, congratulations for coming so far and I would also like to say, good luck, young ones, I hope you can successfully comprehend your destined heavenly laws.”

Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing were now standing infront of the pond as Su Yubing said,

”Is it finally coming to an end?”

Hearing her question, Mo Yuxin also nodded and said,

”Yes. It seems so.”

”Umm... I can’t help but think of all the adventures we experienced till now.” Su Yubing said this and suddenly turned sideways to look into Mo Yuxin’s eyes,

”I wanted to say this for some time.....

Thank you soo much for appearing in my life.” When Su Yubing said this to Mo Yuxin in such a soft voice, there were deep emotions hidden beneath her serious eyes and Mo Yuxin couldn’t help but look into them,

At this point, instead of saying some dreamy and romantic words, Mo Yuxin simply looked into Su Yubing’s eyes with her pair of blue sapphire eyes which seemed to glow with a blue light and suddenly said a very simple sentence but it inadvertently gave Su Yubing a huge sense of security and love,

”As I should.”

Her words seemed to mean as if her entire existence was just to appear in her life but also to say
