Cultivation Online

Chapter 480 - A Work Of Art



"Hahaha! It works! It really works!" Yuan suddenly started laughing from sheer excitement when the Flying Daggers technique worked in the real world.

"Huh?" Meixiu stopped cultivating when she heard his laughter and turned to look at the chair.

Her eyes widened with surprise when she saw the kitchen knife she used for dinner floating above the chair, almost like a magic trick.

However, unlike a magic trick, there were no invisible strings attached to the knife.

"Meixiu, look! It works! It's not just cultivation techniques! Even martial techniques from Cultivation Online work in our world!" Yuan said to her.

"Yes… I can see that…" She mumbled in a dazed voice.

A few moments later, the kitchen knife stopped floating and fell back onto the chair seat.

"Compared to Cultivation Online, it's actually harder to control it. I should have sufficient cultivation base to use Flying Daggers flawlessly, but I am having difficulties controlling it," he said a moment later.

"However, it's not as though I don't have enough spiritual energy. Unlike using Divine Sense, it's not exhausting, so I think it's just a matter of inexperience. Once I practice some more, I should be able to use Flying Daggers more skillfully."

Meixiu then said, "If you can use Flying Daggers… I wonder if there are any other cultivators that have succeeded— or how many have succeeded."

"I'm sure many people have tried to use martial techniques when they realized that cultivation techniques worked in the real world, but whether you succeeded or not is a different story," he said.

"There has been no news about this yet, but there's a good chance that some people have succeeded and are purposefully keeping it a secret. It's only a matter of time before someone lets the cat out of the bag like the situation with cultivation techniques." Meixiu agreed with him.

"Anyways, I am going to continue practicing this technique. If it's distracting, you can return to your own room to cultivate. I promise you that I won't do anything crazy so you can rest assured." Yuan said to her.

"Okay." Meixiu nodded and returned to her room.

Yuan proceeded to practice the Flying Daggers technique until it was morning.

After breakfast, Meixiu asked him, "Are you going to be with us today?"

"Yes, we will see you in a bit."

"Where do you want to meet?"

"Can you meet us at the Cultivators' Haven?" Yuan asked.

"Okay. I will let them know."

Once they entered Cultivation Online, Meixiu proceeded to wait for Yu Rou and the others while Yuan and Feng Yuxiang made their way back to Seashell City using the teleport device.

When they finally arrived at the city, Yuan and Feng Yuxiang went straight to the Cultivators' Haven, where Meixiu and the others could be seen idling around.

"Yu Rou!" Yuan called out to them.

"Welcome back, brother!" Yu Rou ran to him with a smile on her face.

"Are you okay? What happened yesterday? Where did you go?" She then bombarded him with questions.

A stiff smile appeared on Yuan's face.

Although he promised to tell her about everything once he returned, he wasn't sure about telling her that he was cursed, as that would definitely make her worried about him.

"I will tell you later," he decided to delay it for now.

He then turned to look at Feng Yuxiang and said, "I am ready."

Feng Yuxiang nodded.

"Let's rent a hotel room. We will need a bathtub for your tempering," she then said.

"A bathtub? Tempering?" Yu Rou and the others were quite puzzled, but they didn't ask any questions for now and decided to follow Feng Yuxiang and Yuan.

Once they were at the best hotel in the city, they rented out a room with the biggest bathtub.

Inside the bathroom with the bathtub, Feng Yuxiang filled the bathtub with hot water before heating the already hot water even further— until the water was literally boiling.

"Uhhh…" Yuan swallowed nervously when he saw this.

'I am supposed to bathe in this boiling hot water? That sounds… painful…' He thought to himself.

"Are you going to temper your body, Brother Yu— Tian?" Xiao Hua asked him after realizing what they were planning on doing.

"Yes, I am."

"..."

Xiao Hua was kind of speechless, as this was quite sudden.

Why did he suddenly decide to temper his body?

Sometime later, Feng Yuxiang retrieved a dozen treasures and began tossing them inside the bathtub with the boiling water, quickly turning the clear water green.

"Alright, Young Master. You just need to bathe in this water and absorb the treasures now. However, I have to warn you that it's going to be painful."

"Of course it's going to be painful! You're telling him to jump in boiling water!" Yu Rou said with a worried frown on her face.

Feng Yuxiang laughed out loud after hearing her words, and she said, "The boiling water won't hurt the Young Master. Have you forgotten about his cultivation base? It's the treasures that will do the hurting!"

"Go ahead, Young Master. Try touching the water normally." Feng Yuxiang then said to him.

Yuan nodded and dipped one of his fingers into the boiling water, and to his surprise—

"It doesn't hurt at all! It's actually quite warm!" He exclaimed in a surprised voice.

"Really? Let me try…"

Yu Rou also dipped her finger into the hot water, but she had a different reaction.

"Ah! It burns!"

Feng Yuxiang shook her head and said, "The Young Master may not have physically tempered his body before, but his cultivation is high enough to naturally protect his body against boiling water."

"You could've told me before I tried…" Yu Rou sighed.

Sometime later, Yuan asked, "I just need to bathe in this water, right?"

"That's right." Feng Yuxiang nodded.

"Okay."

Hearing her confirmation, Yuan started taking his clothes off in a nonchalant manner while everyone was present.

"?!?!" Xia Jingyi's face flushed with redness when Yuan suddenly began stripping, as this is her first time seeing a fully naked man.

'Young Master's bare body… What a work of art…' Feng Yuxiang chuckled inwardly as she stared at his refined body with an intensive gaze.
