Cultivation Online novel Chapter 1142

"Mother, let's go!" Tian Yanyu immediately began running towards Yuan the moment she saw him, and she grabbed Tian Suyin's arm before pulling her along.

The Rogue Cultivators were still in shock from their companion's sudden death, so they couldn't react in time and allowed the two of them to escape.

"We'll talk after I take care of the trash." Yuan said to Tian Yanyu as he withdrew the Empyrean Overlord.

Almost as though it was responding to Yuan's emotions, the Empyrean Overlord's aura gushed like water at the bottom of a waterfall.

"W-Wait!" The Rogue Cultivators subconsciously raised their hands to surrender.

They could tell that Yuan was a Spirit King and that nobody there would be able to defeat him even if they all fought together.

However, Yuan wasn't interested in sparring these Cultivators and swung the Empyrean Overlord without hesitation.

A powerful sword light strengthened by Enhanced Sword Qi immediately flew towards the Cultivators.

Everything happened so fast that the Rogue Cultivators couldn't even escape if they wanted, so they had no choice but to try and block the attack.

Unfortunately for them, their techniques were all destroyed as soon as they were deployed.

Nothing could stop the sword light from killing these Cultivators today.

Sha!

The following moment, the Cultivators dropped dead on the ground with their bodies severed in half, their spiritual energy absorbed by the Empyrean Overlord.

[Awakening Progress: 10.01%]

Killing eight Spirit Lord Cultivators was only enough to increase the progress by 0.01%. As for the 10 percent, it actually came from the Sword Pagoda, unbeknownst to Yuan at the time.

Besides the Empyrean Overlord's awakening, the Sword Pagoda rewarded Yuan with all of the spiritual energy he'd gathered from each floor, but since his body couldn't absorb them, it was absorbed by the Empyrean Overlord instead.

Yuan ran back to Tian Yanyu and her mother after dealing with the Rogue Cultivators.

"Senior, you're hurt." Yuan quickly retrieved a pill for her injuries. "Here, take this."

"I'm fine. Where the hell did you go, anyway?" Tian Suyin said as she accepted the pill.

"Sorry, I decided to look around while you guys cultivated. I shouldn't have left you guys alone. This is all my fault."

"Nonsense! Those Rogue Cultivators were 100 percent at fault there! Don't kick yourself for their actions, Xiao Yang. And thank you for saving us. I don't even want to imagine what could've happened if you didn't come in time." Tian Yanyu shivered just thinking about it.

"Anyways, I'm just glad that nothing serious happened to you. I won't leave you two alone anymore. I promise."

"Good, because I am going to cultivate again to recover my exhausted spiritual energy." Tian Suyin said as she sat cross-legged on the ground. She'd used almost all of her spiritual energy to fight off the Rogue Cultivators, after all.

"Me too." Tian Yanyu also sat down and began cultivating.

This time, Yuan stood guard for them while scanning the area with his Divine Sense until they were done.

"Sorry for the wait." Tian Yanyu finished a little faster than her mother since she had a lower cultivation base, thus less spiritual energy to restore.

Tian Suyin opened her eyes two hours later.
