No Way People Find Cultivation Difficult, Right?

Chapter 254: Nothing More Than That

Faced with the reward of the Immortal Slayer King, all the elites fell silent.

Although they didn’t have a single share of the rewards, it didn’t stop them from fantasizing about it.

One option was a palace full of treasures.

The other option was the Immortal Slayer King’s supreme legacy.

No matter what he chose, Su Changyu wouldn’t be at a loss.

However, someone soon couldn’t help but frown and speak up.

“Why does it feel like there’s some conspiracy behind this?” said an elite who felt that there was more to the offer.

As soon as he said that, many people chimed in in agreement.

“I think so too.”

“Now that you’ve said it, there seems to really be a conspiracy.”

“There is indeed something bizarre about this. The rewards for just the first round are already so attractive, what about the second round?”

“I get it, this must also be a test to see what option he would choose in this situation.”

The elites all felt that things were definitely not as simple as they seemed on the surface.

Their conjectures made a lot of sense too.

It was theoretically impossible to offer one so many benefits in the first round of the trial.

If they gave him so much, what about the second round? What would the rewards be?

Hence, it was obviously a test too.

They guessed that it was a test, but the problem was that they couldn’t guess what exactly it was a test for.

“Senior Brother Ye, what do you think is going on?”

Witnessing this scene, Huangfu Tianlong couldn’t help but be curious.

He couldn’t help but ask Ye Ping to see what he had to say.

“It’s not easy to explain but they’re right. If these are just the rewards for the first round, they seem to be quite excessive.”

Ye Ping answered seriously.

However, the Longma shook his head and gave his opinion.

“That’s not certain. Exalted One, the Immortal Slayer King has an eccentric personality to begin with. He might be deliberately trying to make you hesitate and feel conflicted. I think it’d be more reliable to choose the first option. There are so many treasures, and even if the Immortal Slayer King doesn’t give you all of them, you’d still stand to gain by taking some.”

Those were the Longma’s thoughts.

After all, he was born in the King’s Territory and thus knew a little more compared to the others.

“Not necessarily.”

Ye Ping shook his head.

Huangfu Tianlong could not help but say, “I feel that there’s an issue with that. If you choose the first option, you’d probably obtain some benefits. Although the Immortal Slayer King’s supreme Mystical Abilities are powerful, who can stay calm in the face of so many treasures?”

“Normal cultivators would choose the first one, but this is often a trap.”

That was what Huangfu Tianlong thought.

He was not looking down on the Mystical Ability of the Immortal Slayer King, but the treasures inside were the lifelong collection of the Twelve Immortal Kings.

Although the supreme Mystical Ability was good, it would require a certain period of time to develop. Otherwise, if one had no aptitude, no comprehensive ability, and no resources, there was no point in getting the Mystical Ability either.

However, if he chose the first option, it might be a trap. After all, the Immortal Slayer King’s items were definitely not that easy to obtain.

However, if he chose the second, he would feel really indignant. In short, Su Changyu was feeling extremely conflicted.

Just as everyone was feeling bewildered, the Immortal Slayer King suddenly spoke up.

“You don’t have to be too apprehensive. No matter what you choose, I will give it to you. This is not a test, I’ll give you what you choose.”

The Immortal Slayer King was not deceiving Su Changyu but asking him to make a choice as soon as possible.

The elites were even more surprised after hearing his words.

They still thought that it was a type of test but they didn’t expect it to be true.

All of a sudden, everyone looked at Su Changyu with gazes full of jealousy and envy.

They were all sour and wishing that they could take his place.

Previously, they were all guessing that it might be a test, but to their surprise, it was actually true.

He had to choose one out of two rewards.

How could they not be envious?

At this moment, everyone looked at Su Changyu again.

They knew that no matter what Su Changyu chose, he would get a great opportunity.

They were jealous and green with envy.

Unfortunately, they couldn’t take his place.

“Ah, if only I got this opportunity. That’d be wonderful.”

“Stop dreaming.”

“If you can really obtain it, what will you choose?”

The crowd of elites knew that this chance of creation was beyond their reach, so they began to fantasize about it.

“He’s definitely going to choose the first option. No matter how good the supreme Mystical Ability is, the first option is better if there are no corresponding resources.”

“Yes, if he chooses the first, any treasure in the palace will lead to a battle outside, what more a pile of treasures? If I were him, I’d definitely choose the first one.”

Most of the cultivators felt that the first option was better. After all, who could resist the temptation of so many treasures?

However, there were also elites who shook their heads. They were outstanding and extremely extraordinary.

“If I were to choose, I would choose the second option. The reason that the Immortal Slayer King has so many treasures is entirely because of his Mystical Ability.”

“Besides, with the help of external forces, there’s no point in being strong if you have an unsteady Dao Heart. At the end of the day, it’d be a loss again.”

Some people chose the second option because they felt that the first one would corrupt one’s Dao Heart and hence, the second one was better.

“Yes, the first reward may seem like a generous amount of treasure, but in reality, it will cause one’s Dao Heart to collapse. The second option is truly the best.”

“Yes, the second one is the supreme legacy that will stabilize one’s Dao Heart.”

Many elites stood up. They felt that the second option was better. However, they said so because they were all elites with stable Dao Hearts who didn’t lack resources.

Of course, the main thing was that they did have a Dao Heart.

However, no matter what they chose, the absolute choice lay in Su Changyu’s hands.

At this moment…

Su Changyu, who was standing in the void, was completely dumbfounded.

He was not interested in women and didn’t like treasures or pills. However, the problem was that he couldn’t wrap his head around such a large amount of treasure.

‘What concept is that?’

The treasures were piled up like a mountain and each one would allow him to soar high.

Besides, there were lots of treasures in the palace.

As for the supreme Mystical Ability…

What would he need it for?

He wasn’t going to fight in a brutal war, so what if he learned it?

It was just akin to having to choose between a supreme-grade cultivation technique and an inferior-grade Spirit Stone. In the situation that he wasn’t allowed to sell it, Su Changyu would choose the Spirit Stone without hesitation.

What was the use of the cultivation technique?

He couldn’t cultivate it.

However, Spirit Stones were different as he could use them to buy some things.

He was now torn between a palace of treasures and a supreme legacy.

Su Changyu would definitely choose the palace of treasures.

However, at this moment, the Immortal Slayer King asked, “Time’s up, make your choice.”

He wanted Su Changyu to make a choice now.

In an instant, everyone couldn’t help but look at Su Changyu.

Su Changyu decided not to pretend anymore.

He took a deep breath.

He said slowly, “No matter how good the treasures are and how powerful the Mystical Ability is…”

“They’re all fleeting.”

“I’m a supreme Sword Immortal and these Mystical Abilities and Dharma treasures are nothing more than what they are.”

After Su Changyu said that, there was silence in the King’s Territory.
