Lou Mu Yan found the Elemental Underground Palaces according to the map in the jade slip given by Di Shi Tian and found that there were many pupils entering. It could be regarded as a lively place in the Sect.

There were eight Elemental Underground Palaces in total—those being metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, ice, and thunder. The pupils in the Sect naturally chose the Underground Palace with the same attribute as their own Elemental Energy attribute for cultivation.

Lou Mu Yan’s fire and wood dual attributes had reached the Great Achievement Realm, but the Natal Magic Tool she refined was metal and water, so she first chose the Metal Elemental Underground Palace.

The top floor of the Underground Palace was the supervising hall, which was specifically responsible for receiving and managing pupils.

“Supervisor, I want to buy training time in the Elemental Underground Palace.” Lou Mu Yan walked up to a supervisor and said with a light smile.

When the supervisor looked up and saw Lou Mu Yan, he paused, then said with a professional smile on his face: “How would you like to buy it?”

“Are there different ways to buy it?” Lou Mu Yan asked in confusion.

The Supervisor knew that she had not come to the Elemental Underground Palaces to cultivate before, so he explained in detail, “There are generally two types of ways to purchase time in the Elemental Underground Palaces. One type is that you know which floor you want to cultivate on, and around how long you need to cultivate in it, then use contribution points to buy it. This type is usually cheaper, one hundred and seventy contribution points a day, but if you buy it for more time than needed, we don’t give refunds.

“The other way is to buy a day’s time first. If you want to continue to cultivate, you can directly pay contribution points in a card slot in the Elemental Underground Palace’s array. This way requires two hundred contribution points a day, but it isn’t wasteful.”

“Then I’ll buy the second way.” Lou Mu Yan handed over her identity jade tablet and swiped two hundred contribution points.

The first one would be more cost effective if the cultivation time was long, but the number of chambers in the Underground Palace was fixed. She had never cultivated in it at all, so she had no idea how long it would take.

“Pupils who enter the Elemental Underground Palaces for the first time must pay attention to one thing. If they feel that the elemental pressure in the Underground Palace is too heavy, and the meridians of their entire body feels as if it would rupture, then they must come out to rest for a while before re-entering, otherwise the consequences will be at their own risk.” The Supervisor reminded.

“Alright, thank you for the reminder!”

Lou Mu Yan learned the rules of the Elemental Underground Palaces, then entered the stone gate in front and was instantly teleported in.

As soon as she stood firm, she felt a dense metal elemental force envelop the entire space with heavy pressure.

She could see pupils comprehending and cultivating at intervals around her. She discovered that such gravity was nothing to her.

After finding a place with the densest metal element, she sat cross-legged and began to cultivate and comprehend it.

Two hours later, she opened her eyes and found that the pressure of the metal element in the first chamber was of little use to her, so she entered into the second chamber.

“Hm? She only stayed in the first chamber for two hours.” The Supervisor whispered in surprise.

The Elemental Underground Palaces were open to all Inner Pupils. In order to encourage everyone to cultivate, the list of the pupils in each chamber will appear on a crystal wall of the supervising area, so as soon as Lou Mu Yan entered into the second chamber, it attracted the attention of some people.

Qi Ran realised that Lou Mu Yan only took two hours before stepping into the second chamber, but there wasn’t much fluctuation in his eyes, as if it were to be expected.

“Young Master Qi, she seemed to have spent around the same amount of time in the first chamber as you.” The rough man behind him said.

“Mm, let’s go in to cultivate and take a look at her achievements.” After Qi Ran finished speaking, he stepped into the seventh chamber of the Metal Elementa; Underground Palace to cultivate, and his follower cultivated in the fifth chamber.

Entering the Elemental Underground Palaces for cultivation was basically a required course for every Inner Sect’s Pupil each month, so Lou Mu Yan’s actions didn’t attract many people’s attention at first.

After stepping into the second chamber, Lou Mu Yan was suppressed by a wave of metal attribute element that rushed towards her. The density here was much thicker than the first chamber, but it still wasn’t enough for her.

She only stayed in the second chamber for four hours before stepping into the third chamber.

Then to the fourth chamber, fifth chamber; and in the sixth chamber, she spent a little more time, but it only took three days.

Then she stepped into the seventh chamber, and as soon as she entered the seventh chamber, she was surrounded by a vast expanse of golden colour.

An invisible pressure hit her instantly. If it weren’t for her strong body, she might have even been crushed to the floor as soon as she came in.

Her entry there also successfully attracted the attention of the cultivating pupils in the seventh chamber. When they saw that she was a new face and wasn’t crushed flat to the ground by the metal element in here, they all revealed looks of surprise.

The shock in Qi Ran’s eyes disappeared in an instant. He never expected Lou Mu Yan to arrive in the seventh chamber so quickly.

Remembering that even when it took more than half a month for him to go from the first chamber to the seventh chamber at the time, arriving at the Great Achievement Realm, he was still known as the number one person in the Metal Elemental Underground Palace.

Who would’ve thought that this young woman only took five days to reach the seventh chamber.

Lou Mu Yan felt that her entire body was as if it were sinking into the depths of a swamp, and it was difficult to move. The surrounding metal attribute element was strongly suppressing her entire body, and the meridians in her limbs felt as if they were expanding.

The density of the metal element in the seventh chamber was ten times that of the sixth chamber. An arc rose on her lips. The seventh chamber was indeed a challenge to her.

She slowly moved her feet, and when she reached her tenth step, she couldn’t bear the increasing gravity of the element and had to sit down to comprehend and cultivate.

On one hand, the constant pressure of the metal element made her body reach the limit again and again, and on the other hand, the bottleneck she had reached of the elemental comprehension broke.

Half a day later, she opened her eyes, got up, and walked forward some more. When her legs began to bend and couldn’t bear the pressure, she sat down again and began to cultivate and comprehend.

In her own opinion, such speed was considered slow, but in the eyes of the pupils in the seventh chamber, she was simply not human.

Qi Ran looked at Lou Mu Yan who was about to approach his position and his peach blossom-shaped eyes revealed a bit more complexity.

When he first stepped into the seventh chamber, it took nearly a month from entering the door to where Lou Mu Yan sat cross-legged now, but she only took three days. This made him unable to express his shock in words anymore.

Lou Mu Yan devoted herself to cultivation while the people in the Elemental Underground Palaces began to become chaotic. The news that Lou Mu Yan, a newly promoted Inner Sect Pupil, had entered the Underground Palace for the first time but comprehended to the seventh chamber already spread as if it grew wings.

She completely broke the record of Qi Ran, the number one person in the Metal Elemental Underground Palace, and it was even an insurmountable length of time.

“Did you hear? That Lou Mu Yan who beat up the supervisors last time in the Contribution Points Hall already comprehended to the seventh chamber of the Metal Elemental Underground Palace.”

“I’ve long known about it. And she only took five days to enter the seventh floor. Such talent can be considered an abnormal monster!”

“She’s that amazing? One must know that it took Young Master Qi more than half a month to step into the seventh chamber.”

“She wouldn’t have any Magic Tools on her to help resist the suppression of the metal element would she?”

“No Magic Tools can be activated in the Elemental Underground Palaces. The moment a pupil enters into the selected chamber, they would be locked onto by the array in the Underground Palace. If there were stupid people, they would be completely crushed by the gravity of the Underground Palace. It’s definitely because of her powerful talent for her to enter the seventh chamber.”
