Chapter 34: Chapter 34 Cultivation Tower
âBai Xuanyang is dead!â
The result of this battle was unexpected.
No one had anticipated that Bai Xuanyang would be killed by Lin Feng in this duel.
Everyoneâs shocked gazes turned to the young lad on the arena.
Lin Fengâs rise was becoming unstoppable.
âDamn, damn, Xuanyang is dead too. This little beast must die, must die.â
...
In a corner, a dozen people gathered, with the Outer Court Deacon Song Canghai among them, his eyes full of venomous rage.
Alongside Song Canghai, there were seven or eight young students; these were all descendants of the Bai family cultivating at Jialan Academy.
The rest were middle-aged individuals, serving as deacons at Jialan Academy.
âLin Feng, I will tear him to pieces,â a young nobleman said with a cold murderous intent in his eyes.
This person was thin, with a sinister and fierce demeanor.
The young noblemanâs name was Bai Yilong, also a legitimate descendant of the Bai family, and his strength had already broken through to the âMartial Master Realm.â
In the Jialan Academyâs Inner Academy, he could rank among the top hundred figures.
âAlright, Yilong, you take action; there will be no problem,â Song Canghai and others nodded.
âJunior Brother Lin, congratulations on your initial victory,â Gongsun Changge and others approached.
âSenior Sister Xiao, Senior Brother Gongsun,â Lin Feng clasped his fists.
âNo need for formalities,â Xiao Yafei nodded.
âHaha, Brother Gongsun, shouldnât you quickly introduce us?â Zhao Zixuan said with a smile.
Zhao Zixuan and others had a good relationship with Xiao Yafei and Gongsun Changge, which was why they came together to watch the match.
Although the Inner Academy was divided into the Four Major Divisions, many disciples had ties with each other.
âHaha, letâs go celebrate Junior Brother Linâs victory. At the banquet, Iâll properly introduce everyone,â Gongsun Changge said with a smile.
Lin Feng would certainly not refuse; this was a chance to meet the top geniuses of Jialan Academyâs Inner Academy.
It was not until late at night that Lin Feng returned to his quarters.
âJunior Brother, you finally returned. Haha, look, here are 15 million taels in silver notes,â
Zhang Qichu excitedly brought out a large stack of silver notes.
These were notes in denominations of ten thousand taels each, totaling fifteen hundred.
âWe split it fifty-fifty,â Lin Feng said with a smile.
âHaha, thatâs unnecessary. When I helped buy the stakes, I used all my savings, totaling two hundred thousand taels, and all bet on your victory. Now, Iâve made a fortune,â Zhang Qichu laughed.
Hearing this, Lin Feng didnât insist further.
Pausing, Zhang Qichu said, âThe organizers of the betting were just devastated. With such odds, they expected to earn ten million taels from your win, but we wagered 1.2 million taels on you, causing them to lose 18 million. Adding the othersâ bets, they lost over 20 million, even after deducting the chips they collected, they still suffered a loss of over 10 million.â
Lin Feng said, âGambling has its risks. Surely, they couldnât have imagined I would win this life-and-death duel.â
Zhang Qichu said, âJunior Brother, now that we have so much Silver Tael, how about cultivating in the Cultivation Tower tomorrow?â
âCultivation Tower?â Lin Feng asked, puzzled.
It was the first time he had heard of it.
âThe Cultivation Tower was personally built by the first headmaster, using countless materials. The headmaster also spent three years drawing an array. The Cultivation Tower can absorb natureâs spiritual energy, and it has twelve levels. From the bottom up, the higher you go, the more abundant the spiritual energy. The first levelâs energy is ten times that of the outside world, and itâs said the twelfth level can reach sixty times.â
Zhang Qichu explained.
âWhat? It can reach sixty times? Cultivating in the Cultivation Tower would be like divine assistance,â Lin Feng marveled.
âThough thatâs true, itâs not easy to enter the Cultivation Tower to cultivate because it charges a fee, and itâs quite high. The first level charges 100,000 taels of silver per day, and the twelfth level costs a million taels a day,â Zhang Qichu said.
Lin Feng clicked his tongue at the exorbitant fee.
Ordinary students couldnât afford such high costs.
Even Lin Feng in the past couldnât afford even one dayâs stay on the first level.
However, after returning from the Wilderness Jungle, Lin Feng obtained a million taels of silver from âDuanmu Feiyangâ and the Yin Yang Cave Mansion.
And from betting on the life-and-death duel, this million taels turned into 15 million taels.
Enough for Lin Feng to cultivate in the Cultivation Tower for some time.
Having money felt good. Lin Feng couldnât help but sigh.
âTomorrow, letâs go,â Lin Feng said.
âOkay,â Zhang Qichu nodded.
The next day, Lin Feng and Zhang Qichu arrived at the Cultivation Tower.
Located deep within the Inner Academy, it was a massive, ancient-looking tower with many students coming and going.
Lin Feng and Zhang Qichu went to the registration area outside, where they needed to exchange points tokens.
The tokens would record how much funding was stored.
Lin Feng exchanged all 15 million taels of silver into points, then entered the Cultivation Tower with Zhang Qichu.
Upon entering, Lin Feng immediately felt abundant energy swirling around his body, almost forming into mist.
âSuch dense spiritual energy,â Lin Feng exclaimed.
The Cultivation Tower was indeed worthy of being a Cultivation Sacred Land.
âJunior Brother Feng, you see those stone rooms? Those are the places for cultivation. We use our points tokens to open an unoccupied stone room. When leaving, we open it again from inside the Cultivation Room, and the array on the walls will automatically deduct points,â Zhang Qichu explained.
âYes,â Lin Feng nodded.
Many students were lingering in the first-floor hall, clearly waiting for someone to vacate a stone room.
Although the hall had abundant spiritual energy, no one cultivated there.
Because cultivating outside was easily disrupted, and any lapse could lead to going astray and becoming possessed.
âItâs hard to find a room,â Zhang Qichu exclaimed.
Lin Feng and Zhang Qichu continued upwards.
Zhang Qichu planned to wait on the fifth floor, where the fee was three hundred thousand taels per day, allowing him ten days of cultivation time in the fifth-level stone rooms. Yang Fan headed to the twelfth floor, where the Cultivation Room fee was a million taels a day, and Lin Fengâs points would allow him fifteen days of cultivation.
The twelfth floor only had four Cultivation Rooms, the fewest on any level.
A million taels per day was called a sky-high price, but with sixty times the external spiritual energy, cultivation would surely progress rapidly.
Lin Feng waited three full hours before someone emerged from a Cultivation Room.
As that student left, Lin Feng headed towards the Cultivation Room.
He took out his points token to open the roomâs door, but at that moment, a cold voice called out, âHold on.â
Lin Feng paused, turned to look at the speaker, a young nobleman of about seventeen or eighteen, clad in black robes, with a detached expression.
âWhatâs the matter?â Lin Feng asked.
âThis Cultivation Room, I want it,â Xu Zihao declared in an indisputable tone.
Lin Feng coldly replied, âI waited here for three hours for this room. If you want a Cultivation Room, you can wait here.â
Hearing this, Xu Zihaoâs face darkened, and he said chillingly, âBoy, what do you think you are, daring to speak to me like this? Do you know who I am, daring to fight me for a Cultivation Room? Leave now, and I might spare you. If you donât heed my words, donât blame me for throwing you out of the Cultivation Tower like a dead dog.â
