Cultivation Online novel Chapter 2051

Chapter 2051: Sword Emperor Qualifications’ Final Trial(2)

A week had passed since Yuan entered the Endless Pagoda, and he had already ascended to the 90th floor.

From the 60th floor onward, his opponents were Golden Immortals, and it wasn’t until the 90th floor that he finally faced a True Immortal.

The spectators expected him to struggle against a True Immortal. Yet, to their utter shock and disbelief, Yuan defeated his opponent with ease.

"How is this possible?! Where is his power coming from?!"

For many, this was their first time witnessing a mortal defeat an immortal, let alone a True Immortal.

"Daughter, do you think you could’ve defeated a True Immortal when you were still in the Immortal Ascension Realm?" Madam Jun asked, her gaze fixed on the display.

The young woman beside her remained silent for a moment before replying, "I never had the chance to face an Immortal back then, so it’s hard to say. But even if I could’ve won, it wouldn’t have been an easy fight. That’s for sure."

"And yet, this ’nobody’ can defeat True Immortals with ease? I’m truly curious about his background now. I wonder which hidden family he belongs to..."

Madam Jun narrowed her eyes slightly. In her experience, when prodigies appeared out of nowhere like ghosts, they almost always hail from one of the many hidden families in the Ninth Heaven.

A few days later, Yuan arrived at the 100th floor. However, his opponent was still at True Immortal, albeit much stronger than the one on the 90th floor.

"Heavens... he’s already on the 100th floor. That’s already twice as much as my earlier prediction..." Kelan muttered with a dumbfounded expression on his face.

"The Heavenly Son is only on the 40th floor. That’s quite the difference," remarked Wang Ming.

"So, what were you saying about Yuan only being top 10 amongst the younger generation?" Chu Liuxiang said, glaring at Kelan.

Kelan awkwardly cleared his throat before responding, "Fine, I underestimated him a little, but can you really blame me? I’ve known the others for far longer than I’ve known Yuan, and while he’s definitely impressive, he doesn’t have any achievements."

At the Holy Sword Clan’s area, the Sixth Elder spoke, "We have to recruit him into our faction no matter the cost. He’s too talented for us to ignore." 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

The silver-haired Sword Emperor sighed, "Do you have any idea how many others are thinking the same thing? It’s not going to be an easy fight. In fact, it might become a bloodbath."

"We have the upper hand because we already have a connection with him," said Sword Empress Huang.

As the days passed, more and more people gathered at the Gates of Heaven to witness Yuan’s relentless ascent through the Endless Pagoda—many of them hoping to recruit him once it was over.

By the end of the second week, Yuan had already reached the 199th floor, while Tian Yuexing lagged far behind on the 50th—only a quarter of Yuan’s progress.

"Is the Endless Pagoda truly endless? Surely, there must be an end, like the mountain from the last trial," someone wondered out loud.

"The Endless Pagoda is clearly inspired by the Heaven’s Thousand Trials. If it’s like the real thing, there should be 1,000 floors in total."

"A thousand floors...? I doubt it. There would be no point since nobody would be able to finish it."
