Cultivation Online - Chapter 1403
1403 Celestial Emperor’s Curse
“Huh?” Yuan had a dumbfounded look on his face after seeing the effects of Celestial Emperor’s Curse.
However, before he could even comprehend the situation, he received a notification.
[Great Misfortune]
[Curse Grade: Divine]
[Description: A curse that lowers your Luck by 5,000]
“Huh?!?!” Yuan could no longer contain his surprise and cried out loud.
“W-what? What happened?!” Everyone in the room looked at him with wide eyes.
“| don’t know, but I’ve been cursed… by the Celestial Emperor himself,” he said in a dazed voice.
“What?!” Xiao Hua’s shocked voice resounded, and she appeared before him the very next moment.
“Why would the Celestial Emperor curse you, Brother Yuan, when you’ve never met him before?!” she asked in a panicked
voice.
“| don’t know, but it happened. Because of this curse, all cultivation resources will be 99% less effective for me… I’m not exactly
sure how it works, but it definitely doesn’t sound good,” he sighed.
However, Xiao Hua’s body trembled after hearing the effects of the curse, almost as if she recognized it.
“Brother Yuan… that curse is meant for Exiles…” she said a moment later.
“Huh? Exiles? Does that mean I’ve become an Exile?” he asked with wide eyes.
She shook her head, “No, | don’t sense the aura of an Exile from Brother Yuan. However, that curse is undoubtedly meant for
Exiles, which restricts their ability to grow any stronger for obvious reasons.”
Meixiu suddenly said, “Do you think it’s because you’re progressing too fast, and the Celestial Emperor is trying to slow you
down?”
Chu Liuxiang nodded in agreement, “That’s plausible— no, that’s definitely the case.”
“But why would the Celestial Emperor be worried about Yuan progressing too fast?” Li Jinxi wondered out loud.
Yuan sighed, “While it’s quite inconvenient to have such a significant reduction in my cultivation speed, it doesn’t have any effect
on me right now since | am already at a bottleneck, but it will definitely slow me down in the future if | don’t get rid of it by then.
On the brighter side, there are plenty of ways to strengthen myself without increasing my cultivation.”
*Knock* *Knock*
“Hey, are you guys back?” Xi Meili knocked on their room after sensing their presence had returned.
Yuan opened the door for her, “Yes, we just got back.”
Xi Meili entered the room and sensed the weird atmosphere.
“Did something happen?” she asked.
Yuan explained the situation to her.
“Wow… To be marked by the Celestial Emperor without meeting him… This is quite an impossible feat, but as expected of you,
Yuan. Nothing is impossible for you.” Xi Meili expressed her awe at his ability to achieve the impossible.
“So, what are you going to do now?” she then asked.
“There’s nothing we can do about the curse right now, so we’ll just move forward as planned. | am going to visit the Myriad of
Techniques now. Since we’ve entered the Fourth Heaven, there should be more techniques available to us. Want to come
along?” Yuan asked them.
“Why not.” Chu Liuxiang said.
“I’ll also tag along.” Meixiu nodded, followed by Li Jinxi.
“| will also come with you.” Xi Meili said.
They made their way to the Myriad of Techniques after checking out of the hotel.
Surprisingly, Xi Meili did not need to have her fate examined even though it was her first visit. Apparently, such evaluation was
only needed before the Fourth Heaven.
“You guys can take your time since | don’t know how long I’ll take,” Yuan said to them before contacting Senior Bai and entering
his world.
“You…” Senior Bai’s eyes widened with shock the moment he laid eyes on Yuan. He could discern that Yuan’s body had
undergone a profound transformation since their last encounter, but he remained ignorant of the precise cause of this change.
“What did you do to your body? How can such drastic change occur in such a short amount of time?” Senior Bai had to ask.
Yuan smiled and said, “It’s nothing serious. | just acquired a new physique, that’s all.”
Senior Bai’s eyes widened a little more after hearing his words.
“So you have two different physiques at this moment?”
Yuan nodded, confirming his doubts.
