Cultivation Online

1394 Fourth Heaven

After clearing the second trial, Yuan was teleported back to Tian’er, who greeted him with a gentle smile, “Congratulations, Master, you have cleared the Stairway to Heaven and acquired the qualifications to enter the Fourth Heaven.”

Meanwhile, an announcement was made for the players. 𝑖𝘦𝑎.𝗇t

“It’s Player Yuan again! He’s the first one to climb the Stairway to Heaven again!”

“How long has it been since we gained access to the Third Heaven? The majority of us are still struggling in the Second Heaven! He’s climbing way too fast!”

lightsvel “The disparity between Player Yuan and the rest of the player base has drastically widened once again!”

Those from the Ten Great Families could only grit their teeth in anger upon seeing the announcement.

Meanwhile, somewhere within the Ninth Heaven, also known as Supreme Heaven, the Celestial Emperor stared at the screen before him.

“Player Yuan again, huh? What a pity that such a talent was born in that world. Who knows what he would’ve achieved by now if he had been born in the Nine Heavens? But if you keep progressing this fast, you will ruin everything I had planned, and I won’t be able to stop myself from interfering.”

After pondering for a moment in silence, the Celestial Emperor muttered in an authoritative tone, “Initiate system update.”

“Confirm.”

A few minutes later, a notification appeared before every Player online.

This notification immediately caused an uproar within the player base.

“What? System update? This is the first time something like this has happened since the game was released!”

“What kind of update? Why doesn’t it specify?”

“This update is happening right after Player Yuan reaches the Fourth Heaven. This cannot be a coincidence.”

“I cannot play Cultivation Online for three whole days?! What the hell am I supposed to do in the meantime?! This game has consumed my life!”

Inside the Stairway to Heaven, Yuan looked at the notification with a slight frown on his face. Since he knew the true nature of Cultivation Online, he wasn’t as optimistic as the others.

“Then I’ll see you later,” Yuan said to Tian’er before leaving the Stairway to Heaven with the others.

After leaving the Stairway to Heaven, Yuan and his group found themselves in the middle of nowhere once again.

Yuan looked at Xi Meili and said, “Something urgent came up, so we will have to leave for a few days.”

“Huh? What happened?” Xi Meili asked.

Yuan took this chance to try something out and said, “There will be a system update, so we, players, cannot log in for three days in 24 hours.”

Xi Meili had a somewhat dazed look on her face after hearing his words. Then, after a moment of silence, she calmly responded, “Don’t worry, I will wait for you to finish your business.”

“You’re not going to ask about the system update and why we have to be gone?” Yuan pressed further. 𝘪𝘳.𝒸𝘰𝑚

“I’m sure you’ll explain it to me once you are ready.” Xi Meili said, acting very natural.

‘I really need to figure out a way to remove this curse’ Yuan sighed inwardly.

“We’ll leave after we arrive at a city,” he said a moment later.

Before they started their journey, Yuan approached Chu Liuxiang.

“What’s up?” she asked.

Yuan retrieved Huang Xiao Li’s spatial ring and offered it to her, “I want you to have this.”

“Eh? T-This is?”

Chu Liuxiang was taken aback when she was suddenly offered a ring, as it looked like Yuan was proposing to her.

“This is something akin to the sword I gave Li Jinxi, as it belongs to you. Sorry, it’s nothing fancy.”

“I don’t know what this is about, but thank you! I will treasure it!” Chu Liuxiang accepted the ring with a bright smile on her face.

Meixiu looked at them with a pondering expression on her face, wondering if she’d receive something as well.

Sometime later, they found a city and entered it.

“Then we’ll see you in about three days,” Yuan said to Xi Meili after renting a hotel room for her.

“I’ll take this time to cultivate since it’s been a while.” She nodded.

Yuan and the others logged off shortly after.

Upon returning to their own world, Yuan gathered the others to talk about the upcoming system update.

“What do you think they are going to update?” Wang Ming asked.

“Since it’s called a system update, I think they’ll readjust the system or something along that line.” Shi Lang speculated.

“Whatever it is, I’m pretty confident that it has something to do with Yuan.” Wang Xiuying said as she looked at him. “There’s no way it’s a coincidence that this is happening right after you reached the Fourth Heaven.”

Yuan nodded, “I also think this update has something to do with me, but until we see the changes, we won’t know for sure why.”

“I am going to speak with the Lord to see if he has any opinions,” he added.

Sometime later, Liya showed up at his mansion to guide Yuan.

“You’ve returned much quicker than I anticipated. Did something happen?” The Lord asked him upon his arrival.

He nodded, “There’s a system update for Cultivation Online. We don’t know the details, and we won’t be able to enter Cultivation Online for three days.”

The Lord fell silent with a pondering face.

A few minutes later, he spoke, “Since it’s related to the system itself, it was most likely caused by the Celestial Emperor. Unfortunately, even I cannot tell you what he has planned.”bender
