The world of Gionia was divided into 3 different continents, with various other islands spread around the world.

The planet itself was one and a half times the size of Earth, making it larger in general.

The Blackspire continent was one of the 3 continents and was the strongest continent in terms of how many experts lived there.

The whole continent was ruled by the BlackSpire dynasty, which was the reason why this unified piece of land had such strong people.

With rarely any battle or war happening under the Blackwing Emperor's watch, the continent got to improve on its own.

The silver light flashed from the stone formation on top of which Ning, Ely, and a whole lot of other people stood to teleport over to that very continent.

When they arrived, they looked around with a bit of awe. They walked out of the building only to see dark skies around them.

"I didn't think I would have ever come to this continent for another thousand or so years," Ely said.

"You will be able to go wherever you want now. Let's go get a place to stay for now. I will help you cultivate a little, and then a few days later we will have to leave again," Ning said.

"Okay," Ely said.

The current city they were in was the easternmost city of the entire continent so they would have to use fewer resources to teleport around.

Ning found something called the Cultivation Pavilion where one could rent a place for a couple of weeks at a time.

Ning took a couples room for 2 weeks of time. After going to the room, he immediately bought a very expensive cultivation technique that could make Immortal Emperors tremble in greed if they ever learned about it.

Once he bought it, he gave it to Ely, who quickly started cultivating it.

2 Weeks passed in a flash and Ely broke through 2 minor realms. Just one more minor realms and she would reach the High Immortal realm as well.

She would have already reached the High Immortal realm had she not spent a lot of the time not cultivating. Since she had reunited with Ning after a very long time, she couldn't just keep cultivating all day long.

The pair left the Cultivation pavilion and made their way toward another flying boat service that would take them where they wanted to go.

"Where are we going again?" Ely asked.

"Uh… some city called Baelon City. It should be… Southwest from here," Ning said. "Depending on the speed of the boat we get on to, we should reach it by sunrise tomorrow morning."

"I see. So an entire day on the boat again, huh? You can just take me there right now," she said.

"But it's fun this way, and besides, I don't want to go there just yet. I still want to spend some time with you," Ning said.

"2 weeks of alone time, and you're still not happy," Ely said with slight laughter in her words.

"I could spend an eternity with you and I would still not be satisfied," Ning said.

Ely punched him lightly. "Don't say such things, it's embarrassing," she said while blushing a little.

Ning chuckled this time around. "Come, we will miss our ride."

The two of them got onto a boat that was preparing to leave. They were a little late, so they had to sit in the middle, where they could hear everyone and everyone could hear them.

They weren't even allowed to use any type of formation on board as per the rules of the boat, so Ely couldn't bring out her noise-blocking formation that she had ready to deploy.

"It's alright," Ning said. "I can stop all sounds for you."

With a single thought, his body started creating the same noise as everything around them, but instead, it was creating an inverted phase, so instead of adding onto the sound, it canceled it out.

Ely was surprised by the sudden silence from around her. She looked around to see, but people were clearly still speaking and moving, and the air was still blowing through the ship, and yet not a single sound could be heard.

It didn't take her long to realize that she couldn't hear the noises her own body made. The rustling of the clothes or her hands clapping together, none of those sounds could be heard at all.

"Our voices should be the only thing we will hear for now," Ning said. "I've kept the range pretty small so others won't know it."

"Is that some sort of technique?" she asked. She was grateful she hadn't gone deaf all of a sudden.

"A system skill, yes," Ning said. "I bought it back in Vilmore when I had to learn to destroy things using sound by learning their resonant frequency and creating the same noise to destabilize them."

"Sounds like science. I suppose I can understand it somewhat," she said.

"It's alright if you don't," Ning said.

The flying ship took off and the two of them continued talking. Since there was nothing else to do for the next 24 hours or so, this was the only way they could spend their time.

There wasn't much they could talk about now that they had been together for 2 weeks already. To keep the conversation going, Ely started asking about their future, and what they were going to do.

"What about after earth? Do we just come back here?" she asked. "I don't know what I could do on earth for thousands of years really."

"You don't have to stay on earth. We can go to a billion different planets in a million different galaxies in hundreds of universes," Ning said. "If you ever feel like it gets boring, then it's easy. I just erase our memories and we can start over again," Ning said.

"That doesn't sound so bad, but… just us two?" Ely asked.

"Who else would you want to take with us?" Ning asked.

"What about our children? Have you not made any plans for getting some children?" Ely asked.

"Uh… Children?" Ning hesitated.
