Cultivation Online novel Chapter 833

Chapter 833 - Elite Demon Sealer's Examination

"This feeling... It's almost as though I have returned to the nameless town with that crazy old lady...' Yuan thought to himself as he stared at the mountain valley.

"In order to pass the examination and become an Elite Demon Sealer, you must traverse this Demons' Valley and reach the end within 3 days." Yan Hara said to them sometime later.

"Demons' Valley?" Yuan immediately raised his eyebrows upon hearing this familiar name, wondering if this is some kind of freaky coincidence or fate.

"Yes, this place used to be inhabited by mostly low-ranking demons in the lower heavens. Of course, this isn't the real location. It's just a recreation of the place." Yan Hara said.

And she continued, "The real Demons' Valley is much larger than this place since this is just a portion of the real thing. It's about 100 miles from here to the end, but you're not allowed to fly during the examination, and you'll encounter demons on your way there."

Tang Zheng then spoke, "You can ignore the demons and finish the examination without sealing a single demon, but you acquire points for sealing demons- bonus points if you can kill them. At the end, depending on your points, you'll be able to receive a demon sealing treasure from the treasury."

Wan Yu spoke next, "Demon sealing treasures are very rare, so I recommend that you try to acquire as many points as you can during this examination."

Yan Hara approached Yuan and handed him a necklace.

"Wear this so we know your location at all times. The demons may not be real, but they can still inflict real injuries, so you should treat them as though you're fighting a real demon."

Yuan accepted the necklace and wore it around his neck.

He then watched as Yan Hara handed Wu Kaiqi and the young lady the same necklace.

'They're also participating in this examination?' Yuan thought they were there as judges at first, but that didn't seem to be the case.

"Now onto the rules for the examination." Yan Hara spoke, and she continued, "As I'd already mentioned, you are not allowed to fly in the examination. You are allowed to use any treasures during the examination, but demon sealing treasures are forbidden."

"You have 72 hours to traverse the Demons' Valley and reach the end. You will know it's the end when you see the Divine Paragon's statue. If you are lost, you can look at the sky and follow that red star."

Yuan followed Yan Hara's finger that was pointed at the sky, and sure enough, there was a bright crimson star flickering in the yellow sky.

"You may forfeit the examination at any time by destroying the crystal on your necklace, but if you fail the examination, you will not be able to partake in it for another 1o years."

'Ten years?!' Yuan cried inwardly.

Although ten years may seem like nothing for these powerful cultivators that have lived for hundreds if not thousands of years, it was a significant amount of time for Yuan, who has only lived for 18 years.

'I cannot fail this examination no matter what.' Yuan told himself as Yan Hara continued to speak.
