Cultivation Online

Chapter 2576 Leaving Gaia's Sanctum

After spending an entire week studying all three parts of the Limitless Cultivation Technique, Yuan gave up and sighed, "It's no use. I will need the complete technique if I want to study this technique properly…"

Without any choice, Yuan entered Endless Assault and proceeded to die fifty times in a row to the enemy on the 46th floor.

Of course, every time he died, he would hear the faceless entity mocking him.

"Foolish mortal…"

"Damn it… Not only does its Eternal Essence far exceed mine, but it can even predict where I am going with my Void Manipulation, so its Void Understanding is also likely higher than mine…"

It had been a long time since Yuan felt such a bottleneck, and it was one that he couldn't brute-force.

Some time later, Yuan returned to One Above All and Last Man Standing, continuing his dominance in both modes.

By now, his name had become so widespread that nearly everyone below the rank of Elite Gladiator knew about him.

In One Above All, he was nicknamed the Win-Streak-Killer because anyone who encountered him was practically guaranteed to lose, and many lost their win streaks to him.

In Last Man Standing, he was still called the Ghost of the Colosseum by many, but some have started to call him the Immortal Ghost, as he was essentially unkillable.

"Damn it! Where the hell did this guy come from?! He's been terrorizing everyone for the last three months!"

"I'm just glad that he's no longer in Expert rank. I don't ever want to fight him again."

"Imagine having to fight a monster like him as an unranked or even as a Novice…"

"I don't get how he's so powerful with such a low cultivation base! There must be a secret to his strength!"

Meanwhile, Yuan achieved his 400th win streak for One Above All and his 300th win streak for Last Man Standing.

But alas, he was still stuck on the 46th floor of Endless Assault.

Then, another month passed.

Since the military recruitment was scheduled to start this month, Yuan did not waste any time on his matches and finished them as soon as possible.

For One Above All, he defeated all of his opponents almost as soon as the match started.

<You have won your match>

<You are on a winning streak!>

<Win Streak: 500>

<You have earned 100 Gaia Points>

<You have received Limitless as a reward>

<You have earned 500 additional Gaia Points for your win streak>

<You have received bonus Limitless for your win streak>

<You have reached Fifth Level Fifth Ascension>

<You have reached Grandmaster Rank>

As for Last Man Standing, Yuan stopped waiting for the other players to defeat one another and instead actively hunted them.

<You have won your match>

<You are on a winning streak!>

<Win Streak: 400>

<You have defeated 88 players>

<You have earned 88 Gaia Points>

<You have earned 1,000 Gaia Points for being the last man standing>

<You have received Limitless as a reward>

<You have received bonus Limitless for your win streak>

<You have earned 1,000 additional Gaia Points for your win streak>

<You have reached Ninth Level Fifth Ascension>

<You have reached Gladiator Rank>

"Has anybody figured out how he's avoiding our detection for Last Man Standing?!"

"It must be some kind of concealment technique, but where did he acquire it? I didn't see anything like that in the exchange shop, either."

"He can't keep getting away with this! Somebody! Anybody! Please stop him!"

The people expected Yuan to keep terrorizing them, but unbeknownst to them, they would stop hearing from him for a long time.

In just three short days, Yuan reached his monthly limit for One Above All and Last Man Standing. And once he used all 50 attempts on the 46th floor, Yuan finally left Gaia's Sanctum after spending five months inside fighting nonstop.

Unfortunately, he was unable to collect enough points to purchase the final part of the Limitless Cultivation Technique before the recruitment. However, he swore to return as soon as possible.

Some time later, Yuan returned to Mei Xiaoyun's villa.

"You're finally here!" Mei Xiaoyun spoke aloud after seeing him for the first time in months.

"Am I late?" Yuan asked.

"No, you're just in time," Mei Feng, who was also present, said. "However, in the military, if you're not early, you're late, so keep that in mind."

"Am I going to take the recruitment right now?" Yuan then asked.

"Let me check your status first to see how much you've progressed in the last five months," Mei Feng said, pointing to the nearby machine she had prepared in advance.

Yuan casually approached the machine and fed it some of his blood.

"What the hell is this?! What in heaven's name did you do in the last five months?!" Mei Feng exclaimed in shock after seeing Yuan's status and improvement, her eyes and mouth as wide as saucers.

"..."

Mei Xiaoyun was stunned speechless.

[Yuan]

[Cultivation: Ninth Level Fifth Ascension]

[Physique: Superior Heavenly Refinement]

[Credential Rank: 3]

[Cultivation Speed: 6]

"Ninth Level Fifth Ascension?! You improved your cultivation by nearly five realms in less than half a year?! That's impossible!"

"Really? I just spent all of my time inside Gaia's Sanctum," Yuan calmly replied.

Mei Feng stared at him in silence.

A long moment of silence later, she spoke in a dazed voice, "Quite frankly, I'm a little afraid to ask you about your time there…"

She turned to look at his status again.

"Your cultivation speed… did you consume three Superior Gaia's Gifts?" she asked.

"I did. I purchased them with Gaia's Points."

"You acquired over 225,000 points in half a year…? That usually takes even Gladiators decades to acquire…"

Unbeknownst to her, Yuan had actually acquired several times more than that amount.

"Haaa… I'm glad that you went out of your way to improve so much, but this… this is a little troublesome," Mei Feng said after another moment of silence.

"Why? What's wrong?" Yuan asked, looking puzzled by her words.
