Cultivation Online

Chapter 1500 Yuan\'s Interview

"Ninth level Spirit King," he calmly responded.

"Wow! I only know of one other person who\'s a Spirit King, and they\'ve just achieved the first level of Spirit King after spending a fortune on resources! How much did you spend to get to your cultivation?"

"I rarely purchase my cultivation resources. I hunt them. It\'s much cheaper and more efficient that way."

"Wha—! So you\'ve reached the peak of Spirit King without consuming treasures?! Is that even possible?! Have you ever purchased gold for Cultivation Online? What do you do with your resources?"

"The majority of my cultivation was obtained from monster cores that I hunted. I have never purchased gold for Cultivation Online, but I\'ve sold many things on the auction house for money to spend on Earth. It\'s also how I was able to afford this place at first."

"Oh? Rare treasures that are typically out of most players\' reach would occasionally make their way into COPlayerAuctions, usually in bundles, and they would always sell for a fortune. Perhaps you\'re responsible for most of them?"

Yuan smiled and said, "Perhaps."

Sure enough, he\'d sell all of the treasures that were useless to him at COPlayerAuctions. This included all the loot he picked up from his slain enemies.

"There have been fewer and fewer high-quality treasures being sold in COPlayerAuctions these days. Do you plan on selling more treasures in the future?"

"Who knows? I don\'t really need any money right now." Yuan shrugged.

He\'d already earned enough money to splurge on for several lifetimes, and since he no longer needed to pay to live in the Dragon Spiral Mountian ever since he helped the Lord kill the demons, he decided to stop selling treasures.

"Can you tell me what you typically do in Cultivation Online? Are you focused on improving your cultivation? Hunting treasures? Quests?"

"A little bit of everything, I suppose. I don\'t have any routine or strictly focus on one thing. I just go where fate takes me."

"Going where fate takes you, huh? That\'s a good one!" Yan Xiaoxiao chuckled.

She paused for a moment to look at her notes before continuing, "You had a lot of player announcements from hunting many unique Elite Bosses. Can you tell us a little about that place?"

"It\'s a dangerous place called the Vanishing Valley." Yuan calmly responded.

Yan Xiaoxiao was a little surprised to see Yuan answering so casually. Many people believed it was a secret hunting ground, so she wouldn\'t have been surprised if he had refused to answer the question.

Seeing her reaction, Yuan smiled and said, "I know what you\'re thinking. It\'s a dangerous place filled with magical beasts that defy the cultivation restriction placed on each realm, so you can encounter magical beasts as powerful as immortal cultivators that you would normally only be able to encounter in the Sixth Heaven and above. Even I nearly died several times in there, so unless you have a death wish…"

Yan Xiaoxiao swallowed nervously at this information. No doubt, many players will ignore Yuan\'s warning and visit the Vanishing Valley once they see this interview.

Yan Xiaoxiao stopped the interview when they arrived at the training ground. Yuan retrieved his zither and exercised his fingers with several heavenly songs.

Yan Xiaoxiao watched his performance with a dazed look on her face. It was Yuan\'s music that made her pursue a career as an idol.

\'Ahh… I never got the chance to attend his live performance… to think I\'d get this chance and be right beside him in this moment… I can die at peace now…\' she sighed inwardly.

After the performance, Yan Xiaoxiao continued the interview.

"Why did you create the Demon Sealing Faction?"

"To fight demons," Yuan responded nonchalantly.

"Demons…? Is this in a figurative sense? Can you elaborate on that?" Yan Xiaoxiao wore a puzzled look on her face.

"No, I mean it in a literal sense. Believe it or not, demons exist in this world."

"..."

Yan Xiaoxiao was left speechless.

After a moment of silence, Yuan chuckled and said, "Of course, I am joking. I created the Demon Sealing Faction because I wanted a place for myself and those close to me."

"I-I see… and why did you choose a name like the Demon Sealing Faction? It doesn\'t really fit your images."

"There\'s an organization in Cultivation Online called the Demon Sealing Clan. I thought it sounded cool, so I took it."

"You took it…?"

Yan Xiaoxiao was left speechless again.

After another moment of silence, she asked, "I\'m sure countless people have the same question, but what are the requirements to become a member of the Demon Sealing Faction?"

"There\'s no requirements."

"Then how come only two individuals managed to get into the Demon Sealing Faction when thousands have applied?"

"As I said, the Demon Sealing Faction is like a family to me, so you naturally have to be close to me before you are even qualified to apply. But once you are qualified, there are no further requirements."

"Then does the Demon Sealing Faction ever plan on opening to the public in the future?"

Yuan pondered for a moment before responding, "I cannot say with certainty that we will never open to the public, but I have no such plans as of this moment."

The other Demon Sealing Faction members started to appear on the training ground at this moment.

Seeing this, Yuan said, "I typically spend two to three hours sparring with the others. It rarely happens nowadays since I am always inside Cultivation Online, but I try to spar with them whenever possible."

"Yuan! Spar with me!" Wu Zao approached him first for a spar.

"Sure."

"What do you think your chances are in a spar against him?" Yan Xiaoxiao suddenly asked Wu Zao, her voice tinged with curiosity.

"Huh? I have never won against him, nor do I ever expect to. Just getting a hit on him is already worth bragging about." Wu Zao calmly responded.
