Cultivation Online novel Chapter 262

Chapter 262 - Abnormal Amount Of Visitors

Sometime after the next challenger went inside the Carp Leaping Over Dragon’s Gate Tower, Long Yijun mumbled to Elder Xuan who was sitting right beside him, "He should be an Inner Court disciple by now. Go find him and let him enter the Dragon’s Peak alongside Fei Yuyan."

Elder Xuan nodded, "I understand."

When the other Sect Masters noticed Elder Xuan leaving the scene, they asked, "Where’s he going?"

"Elder Xuan does not want to waste any more of his time here since he already knows the outcome. Therefore, he’s leaving to work." Long Yijun responded in a nonchalant voice.

"Y-You little—!"

The Sect Masters gritted their teeth at Long Yijun’s obvious provocation. However, they didn’t dare to claim that they will definitely win this bet, especially not after what they learned about the 100th floor.

Even for a Spirit Master like them, it would be impossible to defeat 100,000 magical beasts even if they were given a month, much less 24 hours of rest time, and they cannot fathom the talent and strength that is required to pass this tower.

If what the dragon on the 100th floor told Shui Zi was true— that someone had managed to defeat 100,000 magical beasts and clear the tower, then the cultivation world is about to experience a turmoil it hasn’t felt in countless years.

"Hey, what are you guys thinking?" One of the Sect Master there suddenly whispered to the other three.

"Isn’t it obvious?! I’m thinking about how we can get ourselves out of this shithole! It’s obvious that we won’t win this bet. However, we’ll be handing 4 Divine-grade treasures to the Dragon Essence Temple if we lose!"

"Is there anything we can really do at this point? We’ve sworn a blood oath! Unless you want to invoke a Heavenly Tribulation and curse your future generations, we cannot break the blood oath!"

"Fuck! We were blinded by the Dragon Slaying Saber! That bastard really got us good this time!"

"Even though we cannot do anything about the blood oath, we can still try to work something out with him after we give him our treasures. I highly doubt the Dragon Essence Temple wants to offend four sects at once!"

"Right! We can simply buy our Divine-grade treasures back, or we can offer something else in return for them!"

"Let’s try to figure this out before our last disciple challenges the tower!"

Long Yijun noticed the other Sect Masters whispering to each other, and he could already imagine what they were talking about. However, it didn’t matter to him, as the Dragon Essence Temple would benefit from this bet no matter what they did at this point, and he continued to watch the tower light up with golden lights.

Meanwhile, Elder Xuan went to Yuan’s living quarters and knocked on the doors.

A few moments later, Yuan opened the door and greeted him, "Hello, Senior Xuan."

"Let’s talk inside." Elder Xuan said.
