Cultivation Online novel Chapter 2655

Chapter 2655: Drill(2)

<Celestial Being defeated>

<Total Points: 50>

A few hours had passed since the drill began, and Yuan had just slain his 50th Celestial Being. Meanwhile, the soldiers around him were still struggling with their third or fourth opponent.

A few more hours passed, but Yuan’s points remained the same, as Celestial Beings had stopped spawning for him.

With nothing else to do, he decided to study the Limitless Cultivation Technique instead.

Meanwhile, somewhere within Gaia’s Heaven, two individuals watched the ongoing drill through a massive screen.

One of these individuals possessed a tall, slender figure and long, pitch-black hair that cascaded down their back like a curtain, clearly a woman.

"Who is that man with fifty points already?" asked the black-haired woman.

The other individual, an old man with long white hair and a neatly trimmed white beard, responded, "That’s Sergeant Yuan, a new soldier who joined the military a little over a year ago. However, very little is known about him. There is essentially no record of him prior to joining the military, as if he’d appeared out of thin air."

The black-haired woman then made a graceful gesture with their hand, summoning a system screen before them. It displayed Yuan’s information, including details that weren’t accessible to the public.

"T-That’s...!" The old man exclaimed in surprise. "Perfected Heavenly Refinement?! But when I looked at it before, it showed Inexhaustible Heavenly Refinement!"

"His information was altered."

"That explains it..." the old man muttered. "If I had suspected that his information had been altered, I would’ve dug deeper. This was my mistake."

After a moment of silence, he continued, "This is the first time someone has achieved the Perfected Heavenly Refinement physique. However, it doesn’t match his cultivation."

The black-haired woman did not respond, only continuing to read through Yuan’s information in silence.

"Truly a peculiar individual... I would like to meet him."

"Y-You?" The old man wore a shocked expression after hearing those words.

"Not right now. There is still so much I need to learn about him before I decide if it’s safe to meet him. For all we know, he could be a Celestial Being."

"A Celestial Being?!" the old man exclaimed in disbelief.

"It’s just speculation right now. His existence is clearly otherworldly, but whether he is a Celestial Being or not is a different matter."

"Is it possible to ask... you know..." asked the old man.

"If only it were that simple..." sighed the black-haired woman.

She continued a moment later, "With all that said, I’m not too worried. After all, General Mei seems to trust him, and I trust her judgment."

"General Mei, huh?" the old man sighed bitterly. "If I could, I would hand my position over to her rather than that poisonous bastard surnamed Gu. Unfortunately, there are rules within the military that even I cannot ignore."

"Maybe you should—"

"No, I won’t intervene," the woman interrupted. "I have faith in General Mei. I believe she is destined to overcome this challenge on her own, without my assistance."

She turned to look at the screen spectating the drill and continued, "Especially if she has someone like that on her side."

Time passed swiftly, and before anyone realized it, an entire week had already passed since the drill began.

Yuan, who had been cultivating for the majority of the drill, suddenly opened his eyes as a notification had appeared before him.
