Online Cultivation
episode 95's

While Yu Rou forgot the time as she was engrossed in the internet talking about her brother, Yuan was secretly cultivating in bed, slowly absorbing the spiritual energy within the room.

His cultivation speed compared to the game was extremely slow, and he needed nearly two hours to enter the next level while only taking less than half an hour to reach the second level Spirit Apprentice in the game.

‘By the way, what are the stages of cultivation in the real world? I doubt it's the same as the game. However, since I have no other references, I will only follow the cultivation stages in online cultivation,’ Yuan thought inwardly while continuing to cultivate even when Yu Rou entered the bed and went to sleep.

One hour two hours three hours

Yuan spent the entire night cultivating, and by the time morning arrived, he had only broken through twice, reaching the third level Spirit Apprentice.

"Good morning, Yu Rou." Yuan greeted him as he woke up and rubbed his eyes.

"Brother brother? You woke up early today” said in a sleepy voice.

Yuan only smiled hearing his words, as he had obviously not slept all night. However, despite not sleeping, she remained energetic as usual” even felt better than usual after a deep sleep.

After spending a few minutes deciding to get up, Yu Rou finally left the bed and prepared for the day.

Yu Rou returned to the room an hour later with two bowls of soup and a wet towel to wash Yuan's face.

“My brother, I cooked two bowls of soup for breakfast today. If you can't finish it, don't push yourself,” she warns him before he starts feeding her.

However, to his surprise, Yuan managed to finish both bowls of soup to the last drop.

“Two bowls of soup somehow, I am still not full” Yuan said in an awkward voice afterwards.

"What's? You still aren't full? How is that possible?” Yu Rou looked at him with wide eyes.

Why did his appetite suddenly increase so drastically? Is this somehow related to what happened to him recently?

‘I should tell Doctor Wang about this just in case something goes wrong .. I also need some advice about his diet if it stays like this, too,’ thought Yu Rou in heart.

"Brother, I know you're not full, but I'm afraid of overfeeding you, so I'll have to ask Doctor Wang for advice before I decide to feed you again, okay?" Yu Rou then said to him.

"Yes that's fine. Like last night, while I am not full, I am also not hungry, ” Yuan said.

"Okay, I'll tell him now before I go to school."

Moments later, on his way to school, Yu Rou called Doctor Wang and explained to him about Yuan's situation.

“The appetite of the Young Master suddenly increased, huh? This may be a good sign because it means his body needs more energy to function, and it usually happens when their body grows stronger. I suggest you keep giving him two bowls of soup for a few more days to see if his increased appetite is permanent or just temporary.” Doctor Wang said to him by phone.

“If Young Master's appetite is permanent, I suggest you increase his diet slowly without overfeeding him so that his body gets the required energy. I would come to check on him once a week to monitor his body condition just in case. ”

"I understand. Thank you, Doctor Wang.”

Meanwhile, Yuan returned to the cultivation world.

"Are you going to take part in the disciple exam at the Dragon Essence Temple right now, Brother Yuan?" Xiao Hua asked him after he returned.

"It's so thick." Yuan nodded.

"Although Brother Yuan will develop his cultivation base faster on the outside?" Xiao Hua asked him.

“My goal to go to the Dragon Essence Temple is not to increase my cultivation base. Instead, I want to expand my knowledge and experience with Cultivators so that I can handle them better in the future.”

“I admit that I am still too naive in this world regarding Cultivators and their nature, and I want to better understand this world. Although it is important to increase my cultivation base, it is also important for me to enjoy this world, because it has been and still is my intention since the beginning.”

Xiao Hua fell silent after hearing his words.

‘Brother Yuan does lack experience in terms of Cultivators. Although he might be fine now with Xiao Hua and the phoenix protecting him, who knows what might happen in the upper sky, where there are Cultivators that are much stronger than us. It would definitely benefit Brother Yuan in the long run if previously he familiarized himself with the competitive nature of Cultivators and realized the brutal nature of the cultivation world.’

“OK, Xiao Hua will no longer stop Brother Yuan from going to the Dragon Essence Temple now. However, it would lose all meaning if Xiao Hua was beside Brother Yuan the entire time he was a disciple, so Xiao Hua would let Brother Yuan live the life of his own disciple. Of course, Xiao Hua will still protect Brother Yuan when he is in danger.” Xiao Hua said to him.

"How will you protect me if you're not there?" Yuan raised his eyebrows.

Xiao Hua then pointed at the necklace around her neck.

“By the way, do you know where the Dragon Essence Temple is located? Do you think we'll get there before the exam starts? Although I can enter the sect without participating in the examination if I speak to Xuan Wuhan's grandfather, I still want to experience it as usual.

“Token given to you should tell you its location,” Xiao Hua said, and he continued, “Just activate it with your spiritual energy, and its location will appear in your mind.”

Yuan followed his instructions and took out the Dragon Essence Temple Trial Token before activating it with his spiritual energy.

A few seconds later, the image of the Dragon Essence Temple and its location appeared inside his head like some sort of map.

However, Yuan immediately frowned when he realized how far away this place was.

“The distance is more than 100,000 miles from our current location Even a flying sword will not be fast enough. Unless we take the Teleportation Device again, I don't think we'll make it in time for the exam, ”dia sighed.

"Allow me to help, Young Master."

Feng Yuxiang's voice suddenly resounded, and a second later a small ball of golden flames emerged from his chest.

"FengFeng?" Yuan looked at him with raised eyebrows.

“I can take the Young Master to the Dragon Essence Temple. It's only 100,000 miles. And I can fly faster than a flying sword.” Feng Yuxiang suggested to him.

"You're gonna... carry me?" Yuan looked at him with wide eyes.

“Unless Senior wants to carry you, but with your size difference” Feng Yuxiang looked at Xiao Hua whose head could not even reach Yuan's shoulder. He could not imagine someone so small carrying a Yuan that was nearly twice as tall as him. Actually, he could, but it would be a very funny sight, but unfortunately, laughing at Xiao Hua would definitely get him killed.

“”

However, Xiao Hua still frowned after hearing Feng Yuxiang's words, as she hated her height being mentioned more than anything else.

Feng Yuxiang immediately started sweating after noticing Xiao Hua's narrowed gaze.

“A-By the way that I am also a phoenix, I can fly faster than the Cultivators usually can. 100,000 mil”we can arrive tonight.”

“Till tonight?” Yuan started to think.

‘If we can get there tonight, it will save us a lot of time” the time I can use to cultivate in the real world ..’

After pondering for a moment, Yuan nodded his head and said, "OK, I should trouble you for this one, Feng Feng."

“Not even mention it, Young Master. My body is already yours” there is no need to thank me every time you use it, ” Feng Yuxiang said with a shameless smile on her face.

"Are you ready to go now, Young Master?" Feng Yuxiang asked him a moment later.

"Yes." Yeah."

“Then, excuse”

Feng Yuxiang suddenly lowered her body and took Yuan, carrying her like a princess.

And even before Yuan had time to react, two huge fiery wings suddenly emerged from Feng Yuxiang's back.

When the people around them saw this, they were immediately shocked.

“I-That's Mrs Feng! What is he doing here?! And who was that young man she was carrying?!”

Feng Yuxiang ignored the commotion he caused and immediately flew into the sky with Yuan shouting loudly like Yu Rou did when she first experienced flying with a flying sword.

"Which direction should I go, Young Master?" Feng Yuxiang asked him after they were above the entire city and almost touched the clouds.

"The spirit," Yuan pointed to the east according to the map on his head.

Feng Yuxiang nodded, and his fiery wings flapped once before starting to soar towards the east, leaving a trace of golden flames in the sky.

Meanwhile, Xiao Hua followed them from behind. However, even with his Spirit King cultivation base, he would have to put in great effort to keep up with their speed. Though, that was expected, as phoenixes were known to dominate the sky with their flying techniques.
