Cultivation Online Chapter 831 - Have You Seen My Son?

Chapter 831 Have You Seen My Son?

After talking with the others for a couple more minutes, everyone returned to their own schedule, which consisted of mostly morning practice, so everyone except Yuan went to the training field.

As for Yuan, he returned to Cultivation Online so that he could continue making his journey to the Demons Valley.

Many hours later, Yuan could suddenly sense a chilly sensation on his skin, causing him to tremble slightly. However, it wasnt because of the weather, and a cultivator of his level wouldnt be affected by normal cold weather.

What is this feeling? Its unpleasant. Yuan asked Feng Yuxiang, who didnt seem affected at all.

It must be the Demons Valley miasma, she said.

You dont feel it? Yuan asked her with a raised eyebrow.

No, it appears that the miasma doesnt affect Divine Beasts. However, this is truly unexpected. I didnt expect for the miasma to reach all the way here since were still a few hours away from the town. It wasnt this bad the last time I was here.

You came to the Demons Valley before?

Somewhat. I flew over it, but I never went inside, and that was thousands of years ago.

I see. How was the place when you flew over it?

It was desolate and had this grim atmosphere. Thats all I can remember.

Why is the place like this? Yuan continued to ask.

Who knows. According to my knowledge, demons used to roam that land very frequently and even made it into some sort of stronghold, hence its name. However, after the Demon Clan was defeated by humans, they all seemingly disappeared, leaving behind this miasma that makes people crazy if they stay

Demons, huh? Honestly, I wanted to visit the Demons Valley not entirely because of Jia Chong. I was intrigued by this places name, so I wanted to see what it was like for myself. Yuan suddenly said.

Do you think its because of your memories as the Divine Paragon that made you interested in Demons Valley? Feng Yuxiang then asked.

Who knows, but it feels like I am always encountering demons, almost like were fated to cross paths everywhere I go. Yuan sighed.

A few hours later, Feng Yuxiang said, Were almost there, Young Master. Are you okay with the miasma? Do you feel unwell?

Yuan shook his head, I am fine. The miasma is unpleasant and makes my skin crawl, but I dont feel any differently than normal.

Thats good to hear. But since were going to the town first, I should talk a little about it.

First of all, the town is a nameless place. It probably had a name before, but it was forgotten with time. I personally have never been to the town before, but I asked the Moonlight Brokers about it before I left, and Yue Yin told me that its a town filled with crazy people, warning me that we shouldnt interact with them.

According to her, many people go missing in that place, and its residents act like theyre possessed by something. Due to its bad reputation, it rarely receives any guests. The only people that go to that place are cultivators who are interested in the Demons Valley. There are rumors of hidden treasures within the Demons Valley, so its a hot spot for treasure hunters.

Sounds like a complicated place.

About an hour later, they arrived at the nameless town.

About an hour later, they arrived at the nameless town. The miasma inside this town is way stronger than anything I have felt outside. Yuan muttered in a low voice as he entered the town that didnt even have any guards.

At first glance, the place looked very empty, almost as though it was a ghost town. However, he quickly realized that was not the case.

Young Master, theyre watching us from their houses. Feng Yuxiang suddenly said to him.

He nodded, Yes, I can see them with my divine sense. There is definitely something off about them.

After walking around the town for about half an hour without seeing a single individual, Yuan sighed, How are we supposed to find the Myriad of Techniques if theres nobody to guide us there?

This is a relatively small town, so well probably find it just by walking around. Feng Yuxiang said.

After a few more minutes of wandering, Yuan finally found someone in the street- a very skinny old woman standing in the street with a dazed look on her pale face.

Yuan swallowed nervously when he saw this old woman that looked almost like a skeleton. Although he has never watched any horror movies before, Yu Rou used to tell him scary stories on special occasions, and in all of her stories, there would always be a creepy-looking old woman.

Yuans instincts told him to not approach this old woman, but he wanted to find the Myriad of Techniques as soon as possible or he would be late for the examination.

Calm down. Theres nothing this old woman can do to harm you. Yuan told this to himself as he approached the old woman at a slow but steady pace.

H-Hello. Do you know where I can find the Myriad of Techniques? Yuan asked in a nervous but clear voice.

However, the old woman acted as though she didnt even hear him, and she continued to stare at the space in front of her with a blank expression.

Figuring that she didnt hear him, Yuan decided to ask her again in a louder voice, Do you know where I can find the Myriad of Techniques?

This time, the old woman turned to look at him with stiff movement.

Have you seen my son? She asked him in a hoarse voice.

Uh. Yuan was taken aback by the old womans response.

No, I havent. He eventually responded.

The old woman then continued, Do you know where my son is? He should have returned to me by now...

Sorry, but I dont know where your son is. Yuan shook his head.

After a moment of silence, the old woman suddenly started screaming, YOU! YOU TOOK MY SON, DIDNT YOU?! GIVE MY SON BACK!

It was at this moment the old woman revealed her hands that had been hiding underneath her clothes, and it was clutching onto a kitchen knife.

DIE!

The old woman brandished the kitchen knife at Yuan without any hesitation...
