Cultivation Online

”I see… Thank you for telling me about this. I might have rushed my judgment if it were not for you, Feng Feng. If the Seven Legacy Families are truly such nasty people then I’d rather stay away from them,” Yuan said afterward.

”As for Disciple Min… Maybe I can help her achieve her dreams without needing me to join her family.”

”How does one even travel to the upper heavens, anyway? I know of the Stairway to Heaven, but are there any other methods one can use to travel to the upper heavens?” Yuan asked a moment later.

”Indeed, the Stairway to Heaven is only one of multiple methods, and it’s even the second most difficult method, but despite that, it’s the most used method by Cultivators since the other methods are somewhat unrealistic.” Feng Yuxiang said, and she continued, ”The first method, as most people know, would be to breakthrough the Spirit Grandmaster realm and become a Spirit Lord. Once that happens, you will be able to access the Stairway to Heaven and ascend the staircase without needing to clear the trials as you have already qualified to ascend with your cultivation.”

”For our second method, as you know, would be to challenge the Stairway to Heaven and attempt to clear the trials to gain recognition and the qualifications to ascend. This is the most commonly used method simply because this allows Cultivators who have not reached the Spirit Lord realm to ascend to the upper heavens. Of course, it’s not an easy thing to achieve, and only a couple of Cultivators will manage to pass the trials and ascend to the next realm every 100 years.”

”As for the third and final method… while this is technically the easiest way to ascend, it’s also the most unrealistic method, as it requires someone from the upper heavens to come down to the Lower Heavens and take you to the upper heavens. This is something only the Seven Legacy Families and the Four Ancient Families can achieve, as they have families in the upper heavens.”

”However, even if they can do such a thing, it requires a tremendous amount of resources for someone in the upper heavens to come down to the Lower Heavens, hence why they only do that once in a blue moon when they have someone extremely talented.”

”I see…” Yuan mumbled as he obtained a firm understanding regarding the upper heavens and the Stairway to Heaven.

Sometime later, Yuan said, ”I am going to log off now. Too many things have happened today and I need some rest.”

”See you later, Young Master.”

”Goodbye, Brother Yuan.”

Yuan logged off the next moment.

Once he returned to the real world, Yuan took a few deep breaths to calm his mind before he started cultivating until Yu Rou entered his room.

”Brother, you probably know about this already but apparently something amazing happened in Cultivation Online today!” Yu Rou said to him as she cleaned his body.

”Huh? What happened?” Yuan asked her.

”Many Players within the Eastern Continent heard a loud beastly roar that traveled hundreds of thousands of miles! Some even said it sounded like a dragon’s roar! Maybe there’s going to be a special event and the roar was some sort of sign!”

”R-Really? I didn’t hear anything, though.” Yuan mumbled.

Although Elder Xuan had spoken to him about his performance at the Carp Leaping Over Dragon’s Gate Tower, Elder Xuan never mentioned the dragon escaping the tower, nor did he mention the loud roar that came from it.

”If it’s true, you must try to participate in this event! Who knows what you might be able to get from it!” Yu Rou said to him.

”Okay,” Yuan said.

”I will also keep my ears peeled for any information regarding this event. Once I learn something, I will immediately let you know!”

Sometime later, Yu Rou left his room and returned to her own room.

Yuan continued cultivating for the rest of the night afterward.

After his morning routine, Yuan dived back into the game and wondered to himself, ”What should I do today?”

Yuan retrieved the guide book and began flipping the pages until he found something interesting.

”Oh, right. I have wondered what the Mission Hall looked like ever since they introduced it to the disciples. I should take a look at it now.”

With this in mind, Yuan went outside.

However, he did not immediately leave and turned to look at Min Li’s house, almost like he was expecting her to come out and follow him around.

But to his surprise, Min Li didn’t show up.

”I guess I’ll be alone today,” Yuan casually shrugged before making his way to the Mission Hall.

As Yuan walked away from the area, Min Li peeked through her window curtains and watched Yuan’s back disappear from her view.

Once Yuan was gone, Min Li squatted and covered her face with her hands in an embarrassed manner.

”What in heavens’ name was I thinking yesterday?! Why did I offer myself to him?! He must now think I am some slut who’d offer her body to anyone that can help me achieve my goals! Aaaaah! I shouldn’t have spoken without thinking about it!” Min Li cried out loud with her face flushed with redness, feeling like digging a hole and jumping into it.

”I want to follow him and see where he’s going today, but I don’t have enough courage to stand before him and act like nothing happened yesterday! Ahhhhh! Damn it! I should’ve waited a bit longer before inviting him to join the Min Family!”

Sometime later, Yuan arrived at the Mission Hall. It was a large two-story building that took up an entire block with disciples constantly entering and leaving the place, being one of the most active areas that Yuan has experienced in the sect thus far.

But that’s to be expected since this place is where most disciples go to earn their contribution points, which is mandatory if they want anything from the sect.
