Monarch Of Time

Chapter 84 - 84 Subduing the 'Heaven swallowing vine'

The 'Mystifying Fragrance Pavilion' wasn't only a restaurant, but disciples could also rent rooms to stay there if they had the required sect point.

The Pavilion had 6 floors overall. However, only the first 3 could be used to dine. The other 3 were reserved for the disciples who decided to stay there.

Walking towards the east of the city, Shun Long quickly arrived in front of the 'Mystifying Fragrance pavilion'. The pavilion was actually located just a 10 minute walk away from the arena as well.

Walking through the pavilion's golden gates, Shun Long was soon greeted by a male waiter who asked him to take his order.

Shun Long however shook his head as he said

''I am here to rent a room''

The waiter was startled. Rarely would anyone come to the 'Mystifying Fragrance pavilion' to rent a room. It wasn't that their rooms were of low quality. No, it was simply a difference in price.

A room in a random inn anywhere in the 'floating cloud city' would cost you anywhere from 4 to 8 sect points for a month's stay. The 'Mystifying Fragrance Pavilion' however, priced its rooms starting at 100 sect points for each month.

The waiter who looked like he seemed to be in his early twenties, looked at Shun Long as he nodded his head and said

''Each room in our pavilion's fourth floor costs 100 sect points for a month's stay. The fifth floor rooms are priced at 150 sect points a month while the rooms on the sixth floor cost 200 sect points.

Of course, the rooms on the sixth floor are much better than the rooms at the fifth or the fourth floor. Our pavilion had a rank 1 silver grade formation master personally inscribe runes to every room on the sixth floor, making cultivation inside them to be much faster compared to any other place inside the outer sect.''

''Oh?'' Shun Long was intrigued as he then said

''I'm curious to see how good a room inscribed with the runes of a rank 1 silver grade formation master actually is''

As he finished speaking, Shun Long took out his 'sect identifying jade' and transferred 200 sect points to the waiter.

The waiter bowed as he led Shun Long towards the sixth floor. Someone who could pay 200 sect points to rent a room for one month definitely wasn't a nobody.

Arriving on the fourth floor, Shun Long only saw closed doors compared to the previous 3 floors where there were tables and chairs everywhere on the floor.

On the fifth floor, the number of rooms seemed to be less than those of the fourth floor, while when Shun Long arrived on the sixth floor, he only saw 6 doors.

The waiter looked at Shun Long and said

''Dear guest, you only have to put your 'sect identifying jade' on the door and it will recognize you as the owner of the room for the next one month.''

Shun Long nodded his head as he pressed his sect jade on top of the door, and after a small buzzing noise sounded, the door opened to reveal a luxurious room inside.

Seeing that Shun Long had opened the door, the waiter bowed and left the floor.

Entering inside the room, Shun Long was stunned by its interior.

Although the qi inside the room wasn't as good as the inner region of the Demonic Mountain region, it was almost on par with the 'safe area' there.

The room had a big bed in the middle while from the wooden window on the wall, Shun Long could even see the arena that was close to the 'Mystifying Fragrance pavilion'.

There were even 2 special rooms inside, one specially made for formation masters while the other one was for alchemists.

The room for formation masters had a large hammer as well as a small knife along with some other stuff inside it, while the room for alchemists had a pinnacle rank 3 cauldron that was actually on par with Shun Long's own.

Ignoring everything else, Shun Long directly sat cross-legged on the bed as he sent his spiritual strength inside the 'Stone of Time'.

In the 9 days that Shun Long stayed outside of the Demonic Mountain region, he had already reached the peak of rank 8 in qi condensation and was just a step away from the 9th rank.

Since he wasn't in a secluded environment though, he hadn't dared to mess with the 'Heaven swallowing vine' these days, and had simply let little Black absorb the pure qi that the vine was emitting.

Now however, Shun Long sat down as his mind entered the 'Stone of Time'.

Sending his spiritual strength towards the 'Heaven swallowing vine', Shun Long noticed that the vine immediately turned to absorb his spiritual strength as if it was some sort of food.

This was the way for Shun Long to connect with the vine. Sending his spiritual strength to it, would let the vine become more familiar with Shun Long.

The 'Heaven swallowing vine' could absorb almost every kind of energy and turn them into pure qi.

And yet it felt like Shun Long was trying to fill a bottomless hole no matter how much spiritual strength he was sending in.

After a full hour, the vine finally stopped sapping his spiritual strength as it became completely docile to him. Even with Shun Long's strength though that was on par with a rank 3 alchemist's, after a full hour he was completely spent as he lied down on the bed.

Little Black laughed after seeing that the vine inside the 'Stone of Time' had now become completely obedient and said happily

''Congratulations master! This is a true 'heavenly treasure' that will surely raise our strength. It was truly a waste for that 'silver-winged roc' to hold on to such a priceless treasure. After absorbing some qi in these 9 days I can already feel that I am close to another breakthrough, and my strength will definitely reach the peak of rank 4 by then.''

Shun Long smiled as he heard little Black's words and after sitting cross-legged for a couple of hours to recover his spent spiritual strength, he mumbled to himself

''Little Black, let's see the effects of the 'Heaven swallowing vine' now.''
