The Unparalleled Sword Emperor
Chapter 149 - 149 149 Cultivation Room

149: Chapter 149: Cultivation Room 149: Chapter 149: Cultivation Room After leaving the Task Hall, Lin Bai headed straight to the cultivation room in the Inner Gate.

Along the way, the ubiquitous Spirit Sword Sect warriors were all discussing one topic.

“Have you heard?

Three heirs from the three Great Wealth God Families were murdered overnight, two of whom were the Young Master of the Li Family from Guangling City and the Young Clan Leader of the Xu Family from the Imperial Capital!”

“I’ve heard about it.

Apparently, the Li Family, Xu Family, and Shang Clan, were furiously outraged after receiving the news of their descendants’ deaths.

They issued a sky-high reward to find the murderer.”

“Sky-high reward, how many spirit stones?”

“The Li family offered fifty million spirit stones, the Xu family from the Imperial Capital offered eighty million, and the Shang Clan offered ten million!”

“My God, one hundred and forty million spirit stones!

Tsk tsk, it would be wonderful if I could find this person and get the reward of one hundred and forty million spirit stones.

An end to my cultivation, I could buy a city, become a city lord, have a few concubines, and live a happy and carefree life.”

“Ha ha ha, you’re so small-minded.”

“Warriors across the entire Shenwu Kingdom are now looking for the person who killed the heirs of the three Great Wealth God Families.”

“…”

Lin Bai passed by these warriors, briefly overhearing their conversation, his expression becoming solemn.

“One hundred and forty million spirit stones to find me, it seems the three Great Wealth God Families are genuinely furious.”

“Did I poke the hornet’s nest?”

Lin Bai gave a wry smile.

Thinking about the day in the woods when he killed Li Yun Suan, Xu Jiangsheng, and Shang Tian, no one else was present and all those who participated in the battle were killed by him.

Thus, regarding this matter, Lin Bai figured only heaven and earth and Lin Bai himself knew.

“You won’t find me.”

Lin Bai laughed indifferently.

Since no one saw, how could they find Lin Bai?

Would there be a warrior who could reverse time in order to find Lin Bai for these million spirit stones?

The cultivation room was located in the core area of the Inner Gate of the Spirit Sword Sect.

Every day, a large number of warriors would come and go.

It was not hard to find.

There were only a hundred cultivation rooms, so every day the cultivation room was in a state of undersupply.

To practice in the cultivation room for a day, one had to pay one hundred thousand spirit stones.

One hundred thousand spirit stones were not something an average Earth Martial Stage Warrior could afford, so the cultivation room was indeed quite expensive.

Yet, despite the exorbitant cost, many warriors still frequented the cultivation room as it was the quickest way to improve their cultivation state.

Lin Bai arrived at the Elder’s spot outside the cultivation room and asked, “Elder, are there any vacant slots in the cultivation room now?”

“Wait a moment, let me check for you.” The Elder flipped through the thick ledger on the table and began to look carefully.

“Hehe, you’re in luck, young lad, the 79th cultivation room will be available in an hour for cultivation, so you can go there.”

The Elder laughed, “The cultivation room fees are one hundred thousand spirit stones per day, how many days do you plan to cultivate?”

“Let’s start with one month.”

Lin Bai took out three million spirit stones from his storage bag and handed them to the Elder.

One hundred thousand for one day, one million for ten days, and three million for thirty days.

Three million spirit stones was a considerable amount for ordinary Earth Martial Stage Warriors, but for Lin Bai, who now possessed more than one hundred million spirit stones, it was nothing.

Originally, Lin Bai planned to use the spirit stones to buy demon blood trading at the Treasure Pavilion.

But after going there, Lin Bai discovered that the demon beasts at the Earth Martial Stage did not produce much effect on him, and the demon blood from the Heaven Martial Stage beasts was instantly snapped up by artifact refiners, alchemists, and talisman makers as soon as it appeared.

As for the blood of demon beasts in the Divine Elixir Realm, there was no possibility of finding such in Shenwu Kingdom.

The demon blood sold at the Hanshan City auction was all brought over from the Miracle Ridge.

Left without any choice, Lin Bai had to use his spirit stones to cultivate in the cultivation room.

Hearing Lin Bai mention he was planning to cultivate for a month and he directly took out three million spirit stones, the Elder was deeply shocked and looked at Lin Bai with surprise.

It was not very common for an Earth Martial Stage warrior in the Spirit Sword Sect to casually take out three million spirit stones.

“You are…

Lin Bai, right?” After the Elder stared at Lin Bai for a while, he asked in surprise.

“Yes, Elder, that’s me.” Lin Bai responded with respect.

“Hehe, good, truly the vigor of youth!

The Second Elder’s assessment of you appears to be spot on.

At the third level of Earth Martial Realm for your cultivation, hmm, impressive, very impressive.

Continue with your training.

One day, both the Sword Alliance and the Spirit Sword Sect might fall into the hands of your young generation,” said the Elder to Lin Bai cheerfully.

After listening to the Elder, who seemed to be aligned with the Second Elder’s faction, Lin Bai responded with a friendly smile.

Now that Lin Bai had joined the Sword Alliance, it was as if he had entered the ranks of the Second Elder’s faction.

Bang, bang, bang.

Just then, a series of vibrations emanated from the cultivation room, followed by the furious voices of several warriors.

“What are you all doing!”

“Lin Feng, have you lost your mind?”

“Damn it, I was just about to break through to the next state, but now you’ve disrupted everything.”

Furious voices came from within the cultivation room.

“What’s going on?” The Elder, puzzled, asked, then quickly walked in that direction.

Lin Bai was also curious and followed.

Upon reaching the entrance of the cultivation room, Lin Bai noticed that about a dozen warriors were dragged out of the cultivation room.

They were now glaring at each other in a heated atmosphere.

“Hmph, you Sword Alliance wimps.

You occupy the cultivation room yet do nothing useful.

You just waste Spirit Sword Sect’s resources.

I suggest you hand over the cultivation room obediently and let us, the geniuses of the Divine Alliance, cultivate there.”

Among the crowd, a young man in a green robe, exhibiting an arrogant expression, spoke disdainfully to the group of men and women.

“Another conflict between the Divine Alliance and Sword Alliance?”

“Tsk, tsk.

The Sword Alliance has really angered the Divine Alliance.

For several days now, Lin Tianfeng has been leading people to cause trouble.

He specifically targets the Sword Alliance’s cultivation rooms, making it impossible for Sword Alliance warriors to practice properly.”

“Who could they blame?

They brought this upon themselves.”

“Indeed, who told the Sword Alliance to side with Lin Bai and oppose the Divine Alliance.”

As Lin Bai stood in the crowd, he overheard people whispering.

“Because of me?

What does this have to do with me?” Lin Bai was bewildered when he heard several people mentioning his name.

The Sword Alliance warriors who were dragged out by Lin Tianfeng were fuming and gritting their teeth as they glared at him.

Lin Tianfeng was a warrior at the fifth level of Earth Martial Realm.

The Sword Alliance warriors were only at the third or fourth level, and therefore not comparable to him.

Moreover, aside from Lin Tianfeng, there were also about a dozen more Divine Alliance warriors with him.

If a fight broke out, the Sword Alliance warriors were bound to lose.

“Lin Tianfeng, don’t push your luck; we, the Sword Alliance, are not easy to bully,” said a warrior at the fourth level of Earth Martial Realm from the Sword Alliance coldly.

Lin Tianfeng sneered, “If you want to blame someone, blame your Sword Alliance for foolishly opposing the Divine Alliance.

This is the outcome of angering the Divine Alliance.

Wang Hao, let me tell you, from now on, Sword Alliance warriors are not allowed to cultivate in the cultivation room!”

“If any of you Sword Alliance warriors dare defy this; don’t say I didn’t warn you!”

“This is the price that the Sword Alliance has to pay for supporting Lin Bai; this is the consequence of offending the Divine Alliance!”

“Hmph.”

Lin Tianfeng raged at the Sword Alliance Warriors.

“Tsk, tsk, the Divine Alliance is too arrogant.

With just one sentence, they’ve caused the Sword Alliance to lose the most crucial cultivation resource in the Inner Gate,” many onlookers exclaimed with astonishment.

“Brother, what is happening?

How is all this related to Lin Bai?”

Confused as to how he was connected to these events, Lin Bai asked a warrior standing near him.

The warrior replied with amusement, “You don’t know?

A month ago, Lin Bai killed all the warriors of the Divine Alliance in the Outer Sect martial arts competition, right in front of Su Cang.

This greatly angered Su Cang, but the Sword Alliance and Second Elder allied to protect Lin Bai.”

“At that time, the Grand Elder and the Second Elder fell out of favor, as did the Divine Alliance and the Sword Alliance.”

“Since then, whenever Sword Alliance warriors come to cultivate in the cultivation room, the Divine Alliance causes a disturbance.

At present, the Sword Alliance warriors are in no position to contend with the Divine Alliance, so they have no choice but to hold their tongues.”

The warrior patiently explained all this to Lin Bai.

“So, that’s what happened,” Lin Bai finally understood.

The warrior then gave Lin Bai a curious look and asked, “Brother, you look familiar to me.

May I know your name?”

“I am…

Lin Bai!”
