Dual Cultivation: A Carefree Journey Through Another World, the Empress Falls into My Hands

In a dense forest filled with towering ancient trees, amidst waist-high weeds, a figure slowly rises from the ground.

Immediately afterwards, a slightly puzzled voice came.

"Huh! Didn't I fall off a cliff? How come I'm not hurt at all?"

Chu Yunfan touched his body and lifted his leg, his eyes full of confusion.

It turns out that just three days ago, Chu Yunfan came to Kunlun Mountain for an adventure.

Half an hour ago, he arrived deep in the Kunlun Mountains, but accidentally slipped and fell off a cliff thousands of meters high.

Logically speaking, at that height, it's already a blessing from heaven that one wouldn't be smashed to pieces.

But now, he has no injuries at all, which puzzles Chu Yunfan.

However, after a moment, he stopped worrying about it and looked around, muttering to himself:

"Let's find a way out first. Hopefully, we won't be trapped here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Yunfan strode forward.

However, after taking only a few steps, Chu Yunfan stopped. The leg he had raised stiffly slowly lowered, and a look of fear appeared on his face.

Following his gaze, about twenty meters ahead, a pair of large, blood-red eyes were staring straight at him.

"Fuck!"

Chu Yunfan cursed inwardly, then quickly turned around and ran away.

At the same time, the owner of the blood-red eyes also moved; it was a large black bear over two meters tall.

Despite its somewhat bulky appearance, the large black bear was surprisingly fast, quickly closing the distance between itself and Chu Yunfan.

Sensing the approaching presence behind him, Chu Yunfan had no choice but to exert all his strength to run forward, while his mind raced, trying to think of a way to escape.

"My stamina and speed are not as good as a black bear's. If I keep running like this, I will be caught up sooner or later."

But the trees around me are too thick; I can't climb them at all. What should I do?

Chu Yunfan kept a close eye on his surroundings, trying to find suitable terrain to escape the black bear.

To his disappointment, all he saw nearby were tall trees.

After persisting for a few minutes, Chu Yunfan's eyes suddenly narrowed, and his heart instantly turned cold.

It turned out that a huge mountain wall blocked his way not far ahead.

"If I had known I was going to become a black bear's meal, I would have preferred to just fall off the cliff and die; that would have been a quicker death."

The thought of being devoured piece by piece by a black bear sent a chill down Chu Yunfan's spine.

However, there's always a way out.

Just when Chu Yunfan was on the verge of despair, he suddenly caught a glimpse of something unusual in the corner of his eye.

"There seems to be a cave over there?"

Overjoyed, Chu Yunfan disregarded everything else and immediately ran in that direction.

The black bear followed closely behind.

Five meters, three meters, two meters...

The black bear was getting closer and closer to Chu Yunfan, and the stench of its breath could be clearly felt in Chu Yunfan's mouth and nose.

Finally, just as the black bear opened its blood-red maw and lunged at Chu Yunfan...

Chu Yunfan used all his strength to lunge forward, his entire body quickly rushing into the cave.

The large black bear behind Chu Yunfan seemed to encounter an invisible force the moment it touched the cave entrance. Its massive body was instantly thrown back and then crashed heavily to the ground.

A moment later, the black bear got up and charged toward the cave entrance.

However, it was still destined to be bounced away.

This time, the black bear was thrown even further, crashing directly into a large tree more than ten meters away.

Then, a crisp "click" sound rang out.

Of course, it wasn't the tree that broke, but the bones of the black bear.

However, Chu Yunfan was unaware of what was happening behind him; he was still running wildly through the cave.

"Hopefully there's a way out of this cave. Although the entrance is quite small, the black bear can only crawl in, which will greatly slow it down."

But if there's only this one opening, then I'm trapped like a turtle in a jar!

Chu Yunfan prayed in his heart.

However, things don't always go as planned.

Soon, he found himself at the end of the cave.

What awaited him was not an exit, but a cave space the size of a basketball court.

"It's over!"

Chu Yunfan felt a chill in his heart.

However, he soon discovered that his body was even colder.

Because, in a corner in front of his body, there was a cold jade ice bed.

A chilling aura emanated from the ice bed.

Soon, Chu Yunfan discovered the existence of this cold jade ice bed.

What he discovered next made his pupils shrink and his whole body shudder with horror.

Because on this cold jade ice bed lay a figure that resembled a woman.

The ancient and mysterious Kunlun Mountains, with cliffs thousands of meters below, desolate and uninhabited forbidden zones, and a world-renowned ice bed of icy jade...

This information began to connect automatically in Chu Yunfan's mind.

And all of this points to the same thing.

That is, the person lying on the ice bed of cold jade is definitely not simple!

"Perhaps she isn't human?"

A conjecture naturally surfaced in Chu Yunfan's mind.

This conjecture sent a chill down his spine, making his hair stand on end.

Legend has it that Mount Kunlun is the territory of the Queen Mother of the West, who may possess the secret to immortality.

"Could this woman be the Queen Mother of the West? Could she really have been living in this world all along?"

Chu Yunfan stared at the figure in front of him, not daring to blink, for fear that if he blinked, the figure would appear in front of him in the next second.

Fortunately, this did not happen.

After staring at it for a while, Chu Yunfan noticed that the figure on the ice bed remained motionless, as if asleep or dead.

At this moment, Chu Yunfan's courage gradually grew, and he slowly walked towards the Cold Jade Ice Bed.

"What's there to be afraid of? I came to Kunlun Mountain to explore, didn't I?"

Now that such a bizarre thing has happened before our eyes, isn't this a golden opportunity?

If I back down now, what kind of man am I!

With constant self-suggestion, Chu Yunfan's pace quickened, and he soon arrived in front of the Cold Jade Ice Bed.

At that moment, the figure on the hospital bed came into clear view of him.

A flowing, ice-blue palace-style dress perfectly accentuated her curvaceous figure.

Her skin was snow-white, like white jade, delicate and smooth, without a trace of impurity.

Those exquisite features are like a masterpiece of nature.

Beneath her slender, willow-leaf-shaped eyebrows, her eyes were slightly closed, and her eyelashes were curved, making her incredibly adorable.

Her nose was delicate and pert, and her lips were as vibrant as a flower, making one want to kiss her.

When Chu Yunfan saw this face, he stood there stunned for a long time.

"How could there be such a beautiful woman in this world? Even a fairy could not compare to her!"

Chu Yunfan silently admired the scene, while a question arose in his mind.

According to legend, the Queen Mother of the West had a human body and a snake tail.

Judging from this, the woman before us is not the Queen Mother of the West.

If that's the case, then who is she?

Suddenly, Chu Yunfan paused his thoughts and placed his finger above the woman's lips.

Immediately afterwards, his fingers recoiled as if electrocuted, and his eyes widened suddenly.

"She's alive!"

Chu Yunfan's heart trembled violently, and he instinctively wanted to back away.

Then, something terrifying happened.

"Why can't I move my body?!"
