120: Unlocking the second level of the Time Tower, Night Owl outsmarts Gu Chen
Although Night Owl and the others also cultivated in the Time Pagoda, just like them.
There were still many privileges they couldn't enjoy.
For example, Night Owl and the others could occasionally take some dragon scale fruit and enlightenment tea leaves from the sect's orchard to absorb and taste.
But for them, even if they swallowed their saliva until it ran dry, it would be impossible.
Also, if Night Owl and the others had any issues, Li Big Saber and the elders would all eagerly step forward to help.
But if they had problems, they wouldn't be so lucky.
They would have to queue first to see if it was their turn, and also check if the elders had time that day; if not, they would have to keep waiting.
So, as long as one became a Personal Disciple, the entire Qingtian Sect, except for the Sect Master, revolved around the Personal Disciples.
They could only bitterly queue up behind.
Just as Li Big Saber finished introducing the Time Pagoda and was about to take Chu Feng to the adjacent Trial Pagoda for an introduction.
Jiang Chen's figure suddenly appeared before them.
"Disciple pays respects to Master!"
Seeing Jiang Chen appear, Chu Feng respectfully saluted.
He now worshipped Jiang Chen immensely. To be able to create a sect with such a terrifying cultivation environment, what a magnificent Great Emperor Jiang Chen must be.
Perhaps no one on the entire Canglan Continent could compare to Jiang Chen.
Li Big Saber and the disciples entering and exiting the Time Pagoda all respectfully saluted upon seeing Jiang Chen.
"Subordinate greets Sect Master!"
"Disciple pays respects to Sect Master!"
"Mm."
Jiang Chen nodded slightly, looking at the saluting disciples, "You should go cultivate if you need to; don't linger outside."
Hearing Jiang Chen say this, the disciples immediately responded, "Yes, Sect Master!"
Then, those who needed to enter the Time Pagoda entered, those who needed to eat outside ate, and those going to the Trial Pagoda walked towards it.
Seeing the onlookers leave.
Jiang Chen took out the Heaven Devouring Earth Swallowing cultivation technique and the Heaven Refining Divine Cauldron, flying in front of Chu Feng, "Disciple, this is the cultivation technique I found that is most suitable for you, and a powerful weapon. Keep them safe. If there's anything you don't understand, come find me again."
"Thank you, Master, for the reward!"
Chu Feng took the two items, his face filled with excitement.
He hadn't expected that as soon as he entered the sect, Jiang Chen would not only give him a cultivation technique but also bestow upon him a weapon.
The aura emanating from this Heaven Refining Divine Cauldron clearly indicated it was no ordinary item. Having a powerful Master truly brought many benefits.
"Mm, go, familiarize yourself with the sect with the Great Elder."
Jiang Chen waved his hand, signaling Li Big Saber to continue showing Chu Feng around the sect.
"Yes, Master, disciple will go familiarize himself with the sect with the Great Elder."
Chu Feng saluted again, then followed Li Big Saber towards the Trial Pagoda.
After Chu Feng and Li Big Saber left.
Jiang Chen had the system use the Time Pagoda Unlock Card.
[Ding, Time Pagoda Unlock Card used successfully. The second floor of the Time Pagoda has been activated.]
As the system's voice faded.
The Time Pagoda vibrated, and in the center of the first floor's space, a glowing portal radiating a halo instantly emerged.
The Qingtian Sect disciples who were still cultivating were also startled awake, looking in shock at the suddenly appearing glowing portal.
"Hiss, what's going on? Why does the Time Pagoda suddenly have an extra door?"
"Damn it, if you ask me, who am I supposed to ask? This is my first time seeing it too."
"What kind of place is behind this door? Could it be a better cultivation spot?"
A group of disciples quietly discussed the glowing portal.
They suspected that behind this glowing portal was another cultivation space within the Time Pagoda.
But without the elders' command, none of them dared to enter and investigate. After all, unauthorized entry might violate sect rules, which wouldn't be worth it.
Night Owl and the others also looked at the glowing portal with curiosity.
Gu Chen smiled at Night Owl, saying, "Senior Brother Ye, you are the Head Disciple. How about you go in and scout the path, then come out and tell your junior brothers and sisters about the situation inside?"
"Hmph, do you take me for a fool?"
Night Owl rolled his eyes and looked at Gu Chen, saying, "Junior Brother Gu, since you're so curious, why don't you go in first? I, your senior brother, will await your news outside."
If another space appeared in the Time Pagoda without notification, he wouldn't dare to enter rashly.
If it was some forbidden area, even as the Head Disciple, he wouldn't escape punishment.
This guy Gu Chen was actually instigating him to go in, clearly trying to trick him.
"Alas, Senior Brother Ye, as the leader, you should naturally take the lead. How dare I, your junior brother, steal your thunder?"
Gu Chen continued to coax him.
Anyway, he was just talking; as for whether he could trick Night Owl into going in, he didn't care.
"You..."
Night Owl wanted to harshly retort to Gu Chen.
But soon, Jiang Chen's voice echoed in his ear.
"Disciple Night Owl, the second floor of the Time Pagoda has opened. Call your junior brothers and sisters, and a few inner disciples, to go up and cultivate. The time flow rate there is two thousand times that of the outside."
"Hiss, two thousand times?"
Night Owl was secretly astonished.
From one thousand times to two thousand times, their cultivation speed would increase by who knows how many folds.
After responding to Jiang Chen and greeting him.
Night Owl glanced at Gu Chen, intending to trick him, so he pretended to agree, "What Junior Brother Gu said is not without reason. As the leader, I should indeed take the lead, but this is an unknown space after all. If I violate sect rules, I, your senior brother, would also be punished."
"However, if someone can barbecue for me for a year, I, your senior brother, would still be willing to give it a try."
Night Owl curved his lips into a smile, staring quietly at Gu Chen. As long as Gu Chen agreed, he would immediately rush to the second floor space.
After all, getting a free barbecue chef for a year, he was quite happy about that.
"Oh?"
Looking at Night Owl's smile, Gu Chen was also very curious as to why Night Owl changed so quickly.
However, as long as Night Owl dared to enter, being a barbecue chef for a year was fine with him. Anyway, Night Owl would bear the blame, and he would just be going out to make some barbecue.
"Senior Brother Ye, as long as you go in and investigate the situation, I'll take care of all your barbecues for the next year!" Gu Chen quickly replied.
He wanted to see if Night Owl was actually going in or just pretending.
"Good, it's a deal!"
As soon as Gu Chen's words fell, Night Owl had already rushed towards the glowing portal.
"This..."
Seeing Night Owl rush towards the glowing portal without hesitation.
Gu Chen felt something was off, but he quickly relaxed. Anyway, he wasn't at a loss; exchanging a year of barbecue for information about a new space was worth it.
Soon, under the gaze of Gu Chen and all the disciples on the first floor.
Night Owl walked into the glowing portal with a calm and composed expression.
"Holy crap! Senior Brother Ye went in, he actually went in!"
"As expected of Senior Brother Ye, he even dares to casually enter an unannounced space like this. He's truly bold."
"That's right, Senior Brother Ye is the Sect Master's first disciple, the Head Disciple of the entire Qingtian Sect. Even if he makes a mistake, he'll be lightly punished."
"Yeah, we can't compare to Senior Brother Ye. His light punishment would mean immediate execution for us."
