Getting a Sugar Mommy in Cultivation World!!

Time flew by, and just like that, a whole year passed with Noah cultivating techniques and meeting the girls.

Meeting them once in a while was the only thing pulling him through this arduous cultivation.

Even though only a little over a month had passed outside, Noah had to endure a whole year inside the pagoda.

He shifted between cultivating the techniques he had mastered and gathering mana to ensure he did not get bored.

Although Noah was used to spending years on his research, he was not a masochist who actively sought to torture himself in such a way.

In this one year, he realized many things. First of all, Noah grasped all of his techniques to the Great Completion level. Even the most talented people on his current planet took years to reach where he was with just one technique.

Not only that, but Noah's mana reserves also advanced significantly, and his cultivation reached Rank 4.

Noah was glad that he could finally use all kinds of beginner-level spells. He was even able to use intermediate-level spells.

However, he did not feel the need to use magic in this world. He was already strong enough to deal with his enemies using his qi at the moment, but having other backup plans was not a bad thing.

Along with the good news, bad news also followed...

The mana energy in the tower was depleted!

It was not endless!

Because of this, Noah barely made it to Rank 4. Even if there had been more mana, he knew that he might not have been able to advance further in such a short time.

Fortunately for him, the depleted mana was also not permanent. He could feel the tower slowly but surely gathering mana from the real world. According to him, it might take a year or two before it fully recovers.

Since he had nothing else to do, Noah decided to visit the very old sword river.

The same place where he attained his Sword Dao!

This place was a completely different realm only accessible to those with a talent for the sword.

Only the consciousness of a person could enter this realm, and they could not use either physical might or qi in this place.

This realm was a place to learn, not to fight!

The moment Noah arrived, he felt the familiar feeling of sword energy moving through the air like the wind.

He could neither see the start nor the end of this realm, only a vast river of condensed sword energy.

He could only see a blurry fog in the distance that even he, with his powerful soul, could not see through.

Just like the last time, there were several milestones. Previously, he had only walked past the first one.

Right now, he wanted to see the limit of his current capabilities. He was already in the golden core realm, and he was not in a hurry to leave as well.

*Splash!*

As Noah took a step forward, he noticed that only the water around his foot rippled while the rest remained calm as if nothing had happened.

Even though he had not focused on them before, there were several shadows in this realm, all at quite some distance from each other.

"What a coincidence, little guy, we meet again!" Just as Noah took his first step, he came to a halt, hearing a familiar voice that caused him to look ahead.

Before him stood a figure of a man covered in shadow, just like him, Noah cursed under his breath, hearing the old voice, 'Coincidence, my sword, you damn old man! Appearing in front of my face.'

Even though he could not see the old man's face, Noah could tell he was looking at him while stroking his beard… definitely a beard!

Because the mysterious old man was moving his hands right over his stomach, Noah assumed that the old man must have a very long beard.

"Have you been here since the last time?" Noah did not bother with formalities and asked instinctively. The old man paused, hearing his casual words as if he were talking to someone his own age and stature.

After a slight pause, he burst into laughter, confusing Noah.

*Smack!*

Before he could say anything, the sound of a sharp slap echoed in the area. Noah squinted his eyes to see another figure appearing beside the man, this time belonging to a woman.

"How many times have I told you to maintain yourself and not disturb others?" Hearing the words of his daughter, the old man apologized and looked around to see many shadow figures looking in their direction with an unfriendly gaze in their eyes.

The woman turned to look at Noah, feeling his sharp gaze on her. She thought with slight displeasure and amusement, 'What a daring mortal!'

"For cultivators like us, spending tens and hundreds of years in this place is nothing." The old man replied after calming down, attracting Noah's gaze back to him.

Noah, who had already guessed it, felt a little weird about beings stuck in one place for hundreds of years.

"Have you already assimilated with your sword intent?" Thinking that Noah was scared by her father's words, the woman changed the topic.

Noah calmly nodded without explaining anything in detail as they continued talking. The old man was even more surprised by his talent when he heard about his cultivation and age.

The only reason these two unknown cultivators were even humoring Noah was because they admired his talent. All they wanted to ask was about the name of his world and his personal information.

Both of which Noah declined to provide, he did not care whether they had good intentions or not, revealing sensitive information would only put him and the ones he cared about in danger.

Had he been some ordinary immortal who received a fortuitous encounter, they would have ignored him on the spot.

"I would love to talk to you when you reach the upper realm!" The old man did not give Noah any information about himself or the upper realm and abruptly left with his daughter.

Noah shook his head, knowing what was going on in that old man's mind, but he did not care at all. After all, to reach the upper realm, he needed to ascend, and he was far from ascending.

'Let's not waste any more time.'
