My Simulated Road to Immortality

Chapter 81: Chapter 80: Remember to Go to Bed Early

Translator: 549690339

The cultivators following behind Qin Tang were all shocked when they noticed the scene in the distance.

“What a bunch of idiots, I told them that it was weird, yet they still tried to escape. They really don’t know how to write the word ‘death’.”

“One of them was Sun Kairong, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator I knew.

He had exceptional Taoist techniques, it’s unexpected that he died so silently.” “It’s strange, why aren’t there any celestial signs when they die?”

“Are you hearing about the strangeness for the first time, my friend? Under its cover, its own rules are established. Most of the general knowledge doesn’t apply. That’s why we should be more cautious.”

“Thank you for your advice.”

As they walked and communicated with their divine sense, everyone’s expressions varied.

Soon, Qin Tang led everyone into a towering building.

In the center, there was a straight pathway.

On either side of the pathway, there were individual small compartments.

There was no decoration in each room.

Just five wooden beds simply placed there.

“Alright! Everyone, rest here tonight! Meet at the square tomorrow morning!” Qin Tang turned to the group and declared.

After speaking, he swayed his head and walked out.

“Oh, and remember to sleep early!”

After his figure disappeared, Qin Tang’s voice faintly echoed once more.

Seeing the peculiarities disappear, the cultivators in the room finally exhaled in relief.

Most of them were familiar with each other, so they chose a room to dwell in together.

Sikong Yi and Baili Chen naturally stayed together.

Li Fan did not choose to awkwardly force himself into their group, but picked another room nearby.

There were already two people in the room.

These two knew each other and were exchanging some divine sense communication.

Li Fan did not greet them.

He directly lay on the bed, circulating the Xuan Huang Heart-Refining Spell, all miscellaneous thoughts in his heart disappeared.

In no time, he fell into deep sleep.

The two others who were still in conversation were stunned at first.

Afterward, something seemed to occur to them. Their faces turned pale, as if scared by the afterthought.

Therefore, they quickly stopped their communication, and forced themselves to sleep.

However, not everyone was able to keenly perceive what was about to happen.

Many were still chatting with their companions about what they had seen and heard that day, and the possible treasures that might exist in these brand new Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters relics.

They were excited and couldn’t sleep.

Time passed slowly.

No one knew how much time passed.

Suddenly, all the lights in the towering building disappeared.

In the darkness, Qin Tang’s ghostly voice echoed. “Oh dear, it seems like the new recruits this time are rather disobedient.” “I’ve told you, you should go to sleep early.”

“How come there are still so many of you not resting at this point?” “It won’t be good if it affects the test tomorrow morning.”

“Since you can’t sleep, let me help you.”

“Slurp!”

“Slurp!”

“Slurp!”

Chilling sounds continuously resounded.

Who knew how many cultivators had their lives abruptly ended, without even uttering a moan?

Only now did everyone realize that Qin Tang’s previous comment “Remember to sleep early”, was not a joke.

But it was too late.

One cultivator’s lite force atter another disappeared trom their senses.

Some tried to yell, to wake up those who were already asleep.

But the voice just came out, and then abruptly ceased.

Murder and death spread in the darkness.

In this terrifying atmosphere, some cultivators who had not yet fallen asleep couldn’t take it anymore.

Their energy surged as they prepared to use all their power to fight to the death with Qin Tang.

Qin Tang snorted coldly, seemingly angered.

A blue light flashed briefly before it extinguished.

Thus, those who wanted to resist fell silently before they could even stir up a ripple.

After killing those people, Qin Tang seemed to be in a slightly better mood.

“Ah, this task is really tiring. If it weren’t for the fact that the head of the sect and my senior brothers and sisters all disappeared, I wouldn’t need to step forward.”

“It’s meaningless, really meaningless. I’d rather go drinking!”

Qin Tang’s words were inconsistent, and he acted capriciously.

As his voice faded into the distance, all the surviving cultivators in the building breathed a sigh of relief.

But no one could be sure when this Qin Tang would come back.

So, they all wanted to hurry up and sleep.

But…

The thing about sleep, anyone who often suffers from insomnia would know.

If there wasn’t any psychological burden, people would sleep when they get drowsy.

But on the contrary, if they keep thinking about something and forcing themselves to sleep, eight or nine times out of ten, they would wake up at the moment of falling asleep.

Adding to that, many of these cultivators had already replaced sleep with secluded cultivation.

This seems to have deprived them of their ability to sleep.

So, even though they knew they would die if they didn’t sleep, many cultivators were still unable to fall asleep.

Seeing that the deadly Qin Tang could return at any time, these people had no choice.

Regretting that they hadn’t learned any hypnosis techniques before, they could only choose to knock themselves unconscious in an attempt to bluff their way through.

Unfortunately, in Qin Tang’s eyes, sleeping and being unconscious were clearly two different concepts.

So, in the second half of the night, when Qin Tang returned,

It was another bloody massacre. The next morning, when Li Fan woke up,

He saw bodies all over the building.

As predicted, Jiao Xiuyuan did not make it through this challenge.

His body was severed from his head, lying there motionlessly.

Naturally, Li Fan was not going to feel any sympathy for him.

Without delay, Li Fan headed straight to the square where they had gathered the day before.

Having learned from yesterday’s lesson, the cultivators didn’t run around elsewhere and obediently gathered in the square.

The crowd was sparsely populated, with less than two-thirds of the cultivators surviving from the day before.

The trial hadn’t even officially started yet, and there were so many casualties

already.

The survivors were pessimistic about what was to come, their faces lacked luster.

Li Fan knew, this was just the beginning.

In the end, only less than a tenth of the first batch of cultivators who entered the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters would be able to leave it alive.

In the crowd, Li Fan also saw Sikong Yi and Baili Chen.

He glanced at them and didn’t linger.

He waited quietly for the arrival of Qin Tang.

Before long, Qin Tang appeared before everyone again.

He held a liquor gourd in his hand, walking and drinking heavily from it.

“Good wine! Really good wine!”

Qin Tang cried out joyfully, then turned his attention to the surviving cultivators in the square.

“Good, it looks like everyone is here.”

“So, let’s officially begin the first test.”

His eyes slightly squinted, as if he was recalling something.

“My master once said, in the pursuit of immortality, there are three key things.”

“Talent, temperament, and luck.”

“My master believes that among these three, talent is the most important.”

“But I disagree.”

“I believe that among the three, temperament is the most important.” “So, the three tests I’ve arranged are all related to temperament.”

As Qin Tang slowly spoke, he led everyone into a three-story pavilion.

There were over a hundred bookshelves on the first floor where they were now.

Each bookshelf was filled with books.

They all took a closer look.

“Flying Cloud Phantom Book”, “Flying Thunder Jutsu”, “Qingmu Huichun Gong” …

Each and every book was a Techniques manual.

The breathing of everyone present instantly became heavy..
