Chapter 2410: He Is Cultivating!
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Long Teng, Long Lie, Long Ye, Long Cheng, and Long Shuangshuang stood outside the maze and observed the situation in the maze.
Su Mo had defeated three slaves and obtained one Divine Fruit. There was nothing that he could hide from them.
“This guy seems powerful!” Long Ye said in amazement. He had witnessed how Su Mo had captured the three slaves with a single blow.
The slaves of the Dragon Tribe were talented. One had to possess great strength in order to capture three people with one blow.
“He’s doing alright!” Long Teng smiled mysteriously.
“Hoho! Long Ye, do you think Bing’er is good?” Long Lie laughed and asked. Earlier on, his slave, Bing’er had defeated two slaves and obtained a treasure.
“She’s good!” Long Ye replied with a smile. Their slaves were performing well.
“Long Teng, what is your slave doing?” Long Cheng asked, looking baffled.
Su Mo had stopped searching within the maze and was heading toward the outer wall.
“Is he trying to get out?” Long Lie asked.
“He seems to be looking for the exit!” Long Ye commented with a perplexed look.
The few of them were stumped by Long Teng’s slave. He is powerful and has no problem defeating three people. Why is he looking for the exit?
Does he intend to get out? He has only obtained one treasure which he has already consumed. Why is he getting out?
Even Long Teng was baffled by Su Mo’s action.
Could it be…? A thought suddenly flashed across Long Teng’s mind and he became speechless.
Does Su Mo intend to block the exit and rob everyone of their treasures?
Long Teng had no qualms about Su Mo’s strength. He was worried that Su Mo’s identity would be discovered if he blew the matter out of proportion.
If that happened, he would not be able to protect Su Mo as Dragon Tribe would likely hand him over to his enemies.
However, Long Teng pushed the thought away as he knew that Su Mo was not an impetuous person. He was prudent.
As long as he was discreet, his method was feasible as he was powerful.
After all, most of the people would not consume the Divine Fruit or Spiritual Herbs immediately after they had gotten their hands on them.
Take the Divine Fruit that Su Mo had obtained, for example. The efficacy was only for a short period of time. It would be extravagant to consume it unless one had the intention of breaking through the shackles of the realm.
In the maze.
Su Mo depended on his memory of the layout of the maze to look for the exit. He knew the direction of the outer city wall and thus it posed no problem to him.
When he came to a crossroads, he would change his direction. If he encountered another crossroads, he would make adjustments to his direction again.
Within a short while, he was at the outer wall of the maze.
However, the outer wall was extremely long and it posed some difficulty locating the exit.
The passageways came from all directions. With the towering walls separating them, it made it difficult for him to move along the outer wall to search for the exit.
From what I saw earlier, the exit is moving perpetually. Given the speed that it is moving, it should complete one round in an hour. Su Mo thought to himself.
Before he entered the maze, he had made a careful observation of the maze thus he knew about such information.
He decided to stop moving and stay put and wait for the exit to come to him.
If he did not use this method, he would have to spend a large amount of time searching for the exit and he might need more than six hours to do it.
Even if he had moved along the outer wall, he would have to walk past several inner walls.
Thus, he felt that the best method would be to wait for the wall to come to him.
Anyway, the slaves could only leave by the exit. Those who had been eliminated would not be able to bring any treasures out with them.
As long as he stayed put at the exit, he would be able to obtain lots of treasures.
Su Mo found a place by the outer wall and sat cross-legged to cultivate.
The efficacy of the Divine Fruit that he had consumed was still present and he did not want to waste it.
As expected, the minute he activated the Power Source in his body, the effects of the Divine Fruit was apparent.
His cultivation speed picked up, and the Power Source in his body was condensed at least eight-folds faster than usual.
Su Mo did not absorb the Dawn Stones and he merely condensed his Power Source. The effects were splendid.
As Su Mo was cultivating in peace, there was bloodshed at various locations in the maze. The fights over the treasures were fierce.
The treasures appeared constantly and everyone was vying over them.
Whenever two people came together, they would fight each other. After all, it was possible for their opponent to possess the treasures.
Thus, people were constantly eliminated and killed in the maze.
Some of the slaves who knew each other ganged up and they became more powerful.
After 15 minutes, about one-third of the slaves in the maze had been eliminated.
Some of the slaves who had obtained treasures had found the exit and left.
However, not many people left and only two to three people had done so.
Outside the maze.
Long Teng and the few of them gathered together in the sky and observed the situation in the maze.
“Haha! Ning Xue is doing a good job!” Long Lie laughed. Ning Xue had defeated two slaves who had joined forces and she had obtained a treasure.
Bing’er had obtained a treasure earlier and although the two of them did not act together, they had performed well.
“Wu Quan is not bad either!” Long Cheng said flatly. Although Wu Quan had been defeated by Yan Kong, he was still going strong.
Wu Quan must have been enraged by Yan Kong as he became ruthless. He had defeated almost 30 people and killed 10 of them.
He had obtained a treasure as well.
“Shi Kun is good too!” Long Ye said with a smile. His slave, Shi Kun, had obtained a treasure much earlier than the rest of the slaves.
Shi Kun was lucky. He had not robbed another slave but had found the treasure.
“Hoho! Sister Shuangshuang’s slave is still the best!” Long Teng said with a smile. Long Shuangshuang’s slave had obtained two treasures.
Long Teng had information about Long Shuangshuang’s slave. She was an Ice Phoenix and she was powerful. She was more well-versed in the Way of the Ice than Bing’er.
She was formidable as she possessed the Ice Phoenix’s great strength and speed. She had been wiping out her opponents along the way.
Si Kongyan had done a good job and he had obtained a treasure.
In such a huge maze with 200,000 people competing for the treasures, it was considered a great job done being able to obtain a treasure within such a short period of time.
“Long Teng, what is your slave doing? He is cultivating!” Long Cheng asked Long Teng derisively as he observed Su Mo.
Long Teng’s slave was weird. Everyone was fighting over the treasures in the maze but he was cultivating. That was unbelievable!
“This slave consumed a Divine Fruit earlier and he must be cultivating as he does not want to put it to waste!”
Long Lie said with a smile. He then shook his head and continued, saying, “However, if he continues with his cultivation, even if he is not eliminated, the contest will be over by the time he refines the Divine Fruit!”
When everyone heard what Long Lie had said, they shook their heads. They agreed with what Long Lie had said.
The slave must have consumed the Divine Fruit as he was afraid that he would be robbed of it. However, by doing so, he would not be able to obtain any more treasures.
Everyone was speechless. The slave had been able to capture three people with a blow and that proved that he was powerful. However, he was being too cautious.
“This time around, he will be the one to get the most treasures!” Long Teng said flatly.
“What do you mean?” Long Lie and the rest asked, looking puzzled.
“I mean, this slave of mine who is cultivating will reap the best harvest in this contest.” Long Teng said confidently with a smile.
“You must be kidding!”
Long Cheng sneered. He shook his head and said, “He is cultivating.. After the Divine Fruit has lost its efficacy, the contest will have ended. How can he possibly have a good harvest?”
