Cultivation Online novel Chapter 606

Chapter 606 - Paying Respects

"If he's the God of Music, he should have a very high cultivation base, right? I heard that cultivators who can live forever exist in the upper heavens." Yuan said.

"You mean true immortals? These people can be counted with one hand… And while he was recognized as the God of Music, that doesn't automatically make him a powerful cultivator. Perhaps if he was called the God of Cultivation, it would make more sense." Song Ling'er said.

"The God of Music, huh? I wonder what kind of person he was." Yuan mumbled to himself.

"Unfortunately, not much is known about the God of Music besides his name— Tian Kai."

Yuan raised his eyebrows after hearing the surname 'Tian', as it sounded familiar for some reason.

'Their surnames are also 'Tian'…' Yuan thought to himself.

After a moment of silence, Yuan asked Song Ling'er, "Do you mind if I play a song here?"

"Right now?" Song Ling'er raised her eyebrows.

"Yes, I want to pay my respects to both of them the same way the Zither Goddess paid respect to the God of Music."

"Go ahead."

Yuan then retrieved the Soul Ensnaring Zither before taking a seat right before the two statues.

After taking a deep breath, he began playing Zither Goddess's Ethereal Arts.

Ding~

A ripple swept the Heavenly Melody Academy every time Yuan played a music note on the Soul Ensnaring Zither.

Song Ling'er's eyes widened with shock as she watched his performance, as compared to the time he played during the zither competition, he has improved by leaps and bounds.

The song didn't last long, only a little over a minute, but it was more than long enough to mesmerize those who heard it, and they would all look as though their soul was absorbed out of their body, resembling Yuan when he first witnessed the Zither Goddess' performance.

Yuan stood up and returned the zither back inside his storage ring after the song ended.

"Have you been practicing recently?" Song Ling'er asked him when she eventually snapped out of her daze.

"Hm? Not really," he said.

Although he did play for a few days with Azure, it couldn't really be counted as practice.

"I really cannot fathom why someone like you would focus on other things when you're already extremely talented with the zither." Song Ling'er shook her head in a regretful manner, as she truly believed that it was a loss for the world of music that Yuan chose a different path.

"Anyways, if you are done here, let's go to my place, where we can sit down and talk more."

"Yes, I am done here."

Thus, Yuan began following Song Ling'er to the Sect Master's headquarters.

"I have been wondering for a while now… With so many people playing different instruments out in the open, won't they just disturb each other?" Yuan asked as they walked.

"Yes, that's the point." Song Ling'er nodded.
