Cultivation Online novel Chapter 1813

"A few days? What are you going to do in the meantime?" Tan Songyun asked.

Yuan smiled and said, "Look around you—at this city. There are plenty of things to do. I haven’t had a good meal in a while, so I’ll be spending my time in restaurants."

Tan Songyun raised an eyebrow and remarked, "Food? Cultivators don’t need to eat, and that stuff will only dirty your body with impurities."

Most cultivators avoided eating food or even drinking water for precisely this reason. The impurities in ordinary meals—even spiritual food—were considered detrimental to their refined bodies and cultivation progress. Instead, they sustained themselves by absorbing spiritual energy, whether through diligent cultivation or by utilizing spirit stones, which provided a pure and efficient source of nourishment.

"Can you even call yourself human if you stop eating food entirely? So what if it contains a little impurity? You can easily cleanse it," Yuan shook his head.

Tan Songyun fell silent after hearing his response.

Sometime later, they went to a nearby restaurant and filled their table with food, with Yingzi joining them at their feast. As for Tan Songyun, she merely cultivated in silence, not touching any of the food before her.

After finishing their meal at one restaurant, they moved on to another, indulging in a variety of dishes. This pattern continued over the next few days, turning their journey into an impromptu food tour, much to the bewilderment of Tan Songyun.

’How can they eat this much?’ Tan Songyun wondered inwardly, her body trembling slightly at the mere thought of the sheer amount of impurities they must have consumed over the past few days.

Unbeknownst to Tan Songyun, Yuan possessed an Untainted Body, a physique that automatically cleansed any impurities he consumed, rendering them completely harmless.

Xi Meili, being a Divine Beast, also had a body that naturally purified impurities, though not as efficiently or rapidly as Yuan’s Untainted Body.

As for Yingzi, who has a Chaotic Heart, the situation was entirely different. Impurities, rather than being harmful, actually benefited her cultivation.

With just ten days remaining before the Hidden Domain’s opening, Yuan and his group decided to conclude their leisurely detour and resume their journey.

"If nothing happens, we should arrive at the Hidden Domain in six days," Tan Songyun said as she rode her flying treasure with Xi Meili.

"By the way, what are you doing?" Tan Songyun continued as she shifted her gaze to Yuan, who was using an ordinary sword as a flying sword.

"Are you talking about my flying sword? I prefer traveling like this," he said.

"I don’t get it. It’s too inefficient," she said.

"It may be, but it feels good. There’s just something about soaring through the sky while standing on a sword."

Tan Songyun merely shook her head inwardly at his weird preferences.

After traveling for a day straight without encountering anyone, Tan Songyun suddenly warned Yuan through voice transmission, "In case you didn’t notice, we’re being followed."

"We’ll get straight to the point. Give us your slots to the Hidden Domain, and we’ll spare your lives," said the woman.

Yuan raised an eyebrow and responded with a puzzled face, "Slots to the Hidden Domain? What are you talking about?"

"Do you think we are stupid? We know you’re heading to the Hidden Domain! This is your last chance!" The woman suddenly exuded some of her Immortal Qi.

Xi Meili clenched her jaw after sensing the Immortal Qi, something she was not able to withstand in her current state.

Seeing this, Tan Songyun used some of her own Immortal Qi to protect her.

"Oh? You’re also an Immortal?" The middle-aged woman was somewhat surprised by Tan Songyun’s ability to use Immortal Qi. "It’s no wonder why you’re so calm."

"Did you descend to a lower heaven just to rob the people here? Do you even know what shame means?" Yuan asked.

"You think we want to do this?" The young man finally spoke. "All of the slots for the Hidden Domain are taken, but we have to enter it no matter what." _{freeweɓnøvel.com}

"And what makes you think we don’t need to enter the Hidden Domain?"

"Hmph. I don’t have the time or patience to entertain you," the young man scoffed, his tone dripping with arrogance. He extended his hand toward Yuan’s group, his gaze cold and commanding. "Hand over your tokens now, or we’ll take them by force."
