Chapter 2401: Incomprehensible Test (2/2)
“How calm. That little boy has already been more patient than you the first time,” said the Earth area’s supreme cultivator to a man in black clothes. He was wearing a black robe, his face pale as a corpse. He looked calm and aloof.
“You did about as good as me the first time,” replied that cultivator indifferently.
“Let’s see how long that little boy will wait, he’s funny,” one of them smiled. He sat down and looked at Lin Feng.
“Old buddy, it’s funny when you watch someone do it.”
The four supreme cultivators were chatting, Lin Feng heard them. He finally smiled wryly and said, “Master, let’s say I lost this time. But could you tell me more about the exam? If I just sit, remain motionless and remain silent, I…” he trailed off.
He didn’t know what to say. He was speechless. That was the exam?
“You have to understand yourself, you can sit the exam again anytime, one person, or several at the same time, anything works,” replied the old ox indifferently.
Lin Feng smiled wryly and stood up. He walked over to the four supreme cultivators and said, “Do you have any ideas?”
“Nothing at all,” said the Earth Area’ supreme cultivator, shaking his head.
“Don’t look at me, I don’t understand this exam,” said another one, shaking his head. They just stood there.
“That old woodcutter is more patient than me. I remember hundreds of thousands of years ago, I was fishing in Tian Mu Mountain, I fished for a hundred years, but it wasn’t as boring as here,” said the old woodcutter, who was also a fisherman. He didn’t understand the exam at all.
“If it were a battle, it’d be great, but this exam is boring,” said another one. Apart from Lin Feng, only the four supreme cultivators were there. They had probably broken through during a different part of the exam. They were now supreme cultivators who had sat different exams.
“We should fight him,” said the Earth Area’s supreme cultivator. He was bored and talked a lot. Lin Feng didn’t imagine a supreme cultivator like that. They looked absolutely ordinary, were calm and polite, not arrogant at all. Only people who had gone through all this in life could be like that.
“Go and fight him. I will support you,” said another one to the Earth Area’s supreme cultivator.
“Piss off!” said the Earth Area’s supreme cultivator.
“We should take the exam together again and see who the most patient one is,” said the woodcutter.
“Good. Maybe we’ll be even more patient. I’m sure I can be more patient than him,” said another one, looking at the Earth Area’s supreme cultivator.
“Is that so? Let’s try then.” The four supreme cultivators then sat down cross-legged in front of the old ox, the old ox split apart into five cultivators, each one of them sitting down in front of the five.
“Small trick,” said the Earth Area’s supreme cultivator, twitching his mouth.
I wonder what kind of original strengths these four supreme cultivators know, thought Lin Feng. Peerless Saints understood several sorts of original strengths, and there were special combinations.
“Start,” said the old ox indifferently. They couldn’t move and couldn’t talk.
——
Time passed. Those people were incredible. The other four cultivators had lived for over five hundred thousand years, and perceived time differently. The problem was that they were bored.
One year passed and Lin Feng heard someone talk to him telepathically, “Little boy, you’re probably bored to death, you should stop.”
“Eh…” Lin Feng was surprised, as the old ox in front of the Earth Area’s supreme cultivator moved and said, “You failed.”
“I didn’t say anything, I didn’t even move,” said the Earth Area’s supreme cultivator, extremely annoyed.
“Hmph!” the old ox grunted coldly and glanced at Lin Feng. “You just talked to him!”
The Earth Area’s supreme cultivator was stunned. He thought, No wonder he was a god’s beast, he even knows what I say when I use telepathy… I wonder what the exam is about. How to pass?
He was convinced the exam was real, but he didn’t want to fail, he wanted to pass. But he understood nothing at all. How humiliating! He kept saying the old ox was making fun of him because he felt ashamed.
That boring exam continued for ten years, Lin Feng and the others didn’t understand anything, and Lin Feng had already spent nine years in that world before the beginning of the last exam, so he had been in there for nineteen years already. During those nineteen years, the Continent of the Nine Clouds had already started changing, and it had started changing because of Lin Feng. The Fire Shrine and the Fortune Shrine had started fighting. The whole Imperial Court of the Continent of the Nine Clouds was affected, and the Continent of the Nine Clouds was also affected.
