Cultivation Online

Chapter 693: Spirit Heaven

After spending about ten minutes climbing, Yuan and the others finally reached the end of the staircase, where a single door stood.

“I guess we’re here.” Yuan said as he approached the door and opened it without hesitation.

“Are we ready?” He turned around and asked the ladies following right behind him.

Once they all nodded, Yuan walked through the door, disappearing from the Stairway to Heaven.

Ding!

<You have earned the title ‘Carry’ from assisting at least one person through the Stairway to Heaven!>

<You have earned the title ‘Stairway to Heaven Novice Climber’ from successfully climbing the Stairway to Heaven one time!>

Furthermore, an announcement was made for all Players within the Lower Heavens to witness.

<Congratulations! Player Yuan has become the first Player to ascend to ‘Spirit Heaven’ through the Stairway to Heaven!>

<Because of Player Yuan’s efforts, the ‘Lower Heavens’ has re-established its connection with the ‘Spirit Heaven’, allowing access for all Players!>

<All Players may now enter the Stairway to Heaven and ascend to Spirit Heaven without any restrictions!>

This announcement shocked all Players currently inside Cultivation Online except for Yuan and his group, as they were no longer in the Lower Heavens, thus unable to see the announcement.

And unbeknownst to Yuan, countless Players began making their way towards the Stairway to Heaven to see for themselves if they could really ascend to the next realm for free.

<You have entered ‘Spirit Heaven’>

After entering the door, Yuan found himself in the middle of a spacious square.

He looked around and noticed a few stalls set up not far from him with people idling behind them in a bored manner.

However, when these people noticed Yuan’s presence and sudden appearance, their bored faces immediately lit up with excitement, and they all began approaching him like a bunch of hungry pigeons.

However, they stopped moving when they noticed more people appearing out of thin air.

Xiao Hua, Feng Yuxiang, Meixiu, Lan Yingying, Chu Liuxiang, and last but not least, Min Li— six more people appeared after Yuan, which shouldn’t be possible.

“E-Excuse me… D-Did you just challenge the Stairway to Heaven?” One of the people there asked Yuan in a trembling voice.

Yuan shifted his head to look at the man before nodding his head, “That’s right.”

“W-What about the other six behind you…?” The man continued to ask him.

“Yes, they were with me in the Stairway to Heaven.” Yuan confirmed.

“I-Impossible!”

“Does this mean he’d helped six other people ascend by carrying them through the Stairway to Heaven? I have never heard of anyone succeeding in such a feat in my life!”

“Heavens! If that’s true, then we have an unrivaled genius here!”

Some of these people fell onto their buttocks from shock after hearing Yuan’s words.

“Young Master, where should we go now?” Feng Yuxiang ignored the people around them and asked.

“Let’s find a place to rest for now,” he said.

“Okay.”

“P-Please wait a moment, young man! Would you be interested in joining our Silver Blade Academy? We’re one of seven Spirit Academies, a top sect in this world. If you join us, we can guarantee you prestige and power!” One of the people there suddenly shouted.

When the others heard this man’s recruitment, they also started shouting their own recruitment, as they didn’t want to miss this opportunity to recruit a monster like Yuan into their family or sect.

“Join the Wu Family! We’re a top ten family within Spirit Heaven! We can promise you unlimited resources as long as we can afford them!”

“Our Chaotic Force Academy is also one of seven Spirit Academies! We can offer you benefits that others cannot!”

The usually calm and quiet area suddenly became chaotic with everyone trying to recruit Yuan.

“Everybody, please listen to me for a moment!” Yuan suddenly shouted, silencing the place.

“I have no interest in joining any family or sect as of this moment, so if you’ll excuse me, I have other businesses to attend to!”

And when nobody there moved out of the way so that he could leave, Yuan released his Spirit Lord cultivation base, forcing everyone there to back up.

“He’s also a Spirit Lord?! But he’s so young!”

However, everybody there was more impressed than scared by Yuan’s powerful aura.

Although they were reluctant, the people there made an open path for Yuan to walk.

Once Yuan walked far enough, the people there began following him while contacting their respective families and sects to let them know that an unrivaled genius had arrived in the Spirit Heaven.

As for Yuan and his group, they walked around aimlessly until they found a hotel.

“Min Li, what are you going to do now that we have arrived at Spirit Heaven?” Yuan asked her after they found a room.

“I… I don’t really know. I haven’t planned this far.” She shook her head.

“Take your time. I am going to leave for a few days. You can stay here in the meantime.”

“Thank you, Yuan. I will forever be indebted to you.”

“Don’t even mention it. I helped you because I wanted to, not because I needed something from you. Anyways, I will see you later.” Yuan logged off the game shortly after.

Meixiu and Chu Liuxiang also logged off.

After removing the console from his head, Yuan got off the bed and immediately started stretching his body while taking deep breaths.

“It’s only been a week, but it feels like I haven’t seen this room for much longer.” Chu Liuxiang stretched her body on the bed after logging off.

“Huh? You also haven’t logged off this entire time?” Yuan was surprised to hear that.

“Nope. I made sure to watch your entire trial from beginning to end, and I must say, it was a fascinating experience. You’re almost like a different person in Cultivation Online.” 

“Really?”

“I think so,” she nodded.

“Mostly your demeanor, and I think it makes you cooler.”

“Thank you, I guess…”

“Anyways, I am going to take a bath before going to bed since it’s night time right now. You can join me if you want.” Chu Liuxiang said to him before entering the bathroom that was in the same room as their bedroom.
