he moment the system announced that Mo Tian had cleared the Dragon Ruins alone, the reputation of the Cloud Mist Internet Café surged to a level that even Lin Tian had not fully anticipated.
Inside the shop, the atmosphere had transformed into something closer to a festival than a training hall.
Cultivators from every peak of the Lingyuan Sect gathered in groups, replaying the battle footage again and again on the glowing screens. Every strike Mo Tian had delivered was analyzed in detail, every movement discussed as if it were a lesson from an ancient master.
"Look at that moment," one disciple said while pointing at the screen where Mo Tian avoided the dragon's claw. "He predicted the dragon's attack before it even moved."
Another cultivator shook his head in disbelief.
"That wasn't prediction. That was experience."
Nearby, several disciples from Thunder Flame Peak were arguing loudly.
"If Liu Kang had that level of control, he could fight ten enemies at once!"
"Don't compare them," another disciple replied. "Mo Tian is an elder-level cultivator."
Even the visiting cultivators from other sects had joined the discussions.
The entire building buzzed with excitement.
Standing behind the counter, Lin Tian watched the scene quietly.
The system panel inside his mind displayed the updated statistics of the shop.
Active Players: 100
Total Visitors Today: 7,842
Spirit Stones Earned: 39,500
Lin Tian raised an eyebrow slightly.
"The growth rate just doubled again."
The arrival of powerful challengers like Mo Tian had turned the Cloud Mist Internet Café into something far more than a curiosity.
Now it was becoming a destination.
Cultivators were traveling long distances just to test themselves inside the mysterious training realms.
But the most important change was happening quietly behind the scenes.
Inside Lin Tian's mind, the system panel flashed once again.
DING
Mythic Realm Unlock Progress: 90%
Lin Tian's eyes narrowed slightly.
"So it's almost ready."
Ever since the Legendary Realm had been cleared for the first time, the system had been slowly preparing the next stage of evolution.
The more powerful the challengers who fought inside the training realms, the faster the progress increased.
Mo Tian's solo victory had pushed the system forward faster than any previous battle.
Meanwhile, on the second floor of the shop, several of the strongest cultivators had gathered together.
Chen Yu, Yan Feng, Long Wei, and Liu Kang were standing near one of the large screens reviewing Mo Tian's battle.
Chen Yu folded his arms.
"That elder is frightening."
Yan Feng nodded slowly.
"His control of spiritual energy is on a completely different level."
Liu Kang leaned against the wall with a grin.
"I want to fight him someday."
Long Wei remained silent for several moments before finally speaking.
"Not yet."
The others looked at him.
"You're not ready."
Chen Yu frowned slightly.
"And you are?"
Long Wei smiled faintly.
"Not yet either."
The room grew quiet.
Because they all understood what Long Wei meant.
Mo Tian was simply too strong.
Meanwhile, near the entrance of the shop, several disciples from other sects had begun discussing something else entirely.
"The rumors are spreading fast."
"I heard cultivators from the Azure Sky Sect are already on their way."
Another disciple nodded.
"And the Iron Mountain Sect too."
Inside the cultivation world, news traveled quickly.
The story of a mysterious training hall where cultivators could fight ancient dragons without risking death was too tempting for ambitious warriors to ignore.
Within only a few days, the number of visiting cultivators had doubled.
Standing outside the shop, long lines of disciples could be seen waiting for their turn to enter.
Some had traveled for days just to experience the legendary training realms.
Inside the shop, the atmosphere grew increasingly lively.
But in the center of the third floor, one man stood quietly watching the screens.
Mo Tian.
The black-robed elder had not left after clearing the Dragon Ruins.
Instead, he had remained inside the shop, carefully observing the battles of other cultivators.
Several disciples watched him nervously from a distance.
"That elder hasn't said anything since the battle."
"He's probably studying the system."
Chen Yu approached him cautiously.
"Elder Mo."
Mo Tian slowly turned his head.
"You fought the dragon earlier as well."
Chen Yu nodded.
"With a team."
Mo Tian looked back at the screen where another group of cultivators was struggling against the Dragonkin Guardians.
"This place…"
"…is very interesting."
Chen Yu hesitated for a moment before asking.
"Do you think the system has limits?"
Mo Tian's eyes remained on the battlefield.
"All systems have limits."
He paused briefly.
"But this one…"
"…does not seem to have reached them yet."
At that moment, something unexpected happened.
The entire Cloud Mist Internet Café suddenly vibrated slightly.
Several disciples looked around in confusion.
"Did you feel that?"
"What was that?"
Standing behind the counter, Lin Tian's eyes sharpened.
Because inside his mind, the system panel had suddenly erupted with brilliant golden light.
DING
Mythic Realm Unlock Progress: 100%
Lin Tian smiled faintly.
"So it's finally ready."
At the same moment, the large announcement board near the entrance flashed brightly.
The conversations inside the shop gradually stopped as everyone turned toward the glowing screen.
A new message appeared.
NEW REALM UNLOCKED
The words glowed with golden light that filled the entire hall.
Cultivators from every floor rushed toward the announcement board.
"What is it?"
"Another realm?!"
The next line slowly appeared.
MYTHIC REALM — HEAVENLY WAR DOMAIN
For several seconds, no one spoke.
Then the entire building erupted with shock.
"Mythic Realm?!"
"That sounds even stronger than the Dragon Ruins!"
"What kind of enemies are inside that place?"
The description slowly appeared beneath the title.
Realm Type: Divine Battlefield
Primary Enemy: Heavenly Generals
Final Boss: War Sovereign Projection
Recommended Cultivation: Elder-Level and Above
The room fell silent once again.
Even the most confident disciples could feel the weight of those words.
"Elder-Level… and above."
Chen Yu spoke quietly.
"This realm isn't meant for us."
Yan Feng nodded.
"That's a battlefield for true experts."
Long Wei looked toward the announcement board thoughtfully.
"A War Sovereign…"
Liu Kang cracked his knuckles.
"That sounds dangerous."
But one person in the room did not seem surprised.
Mo Tian.
The black-robed elder stepped forward slowly.
His gaze remained fixed on the glowing screen.
"Heavenly War Domain."
He murmured the words softly.
Then he turned toward Lin Tian.
"I would like to try it."
The crowd gasped.
"Already?!"
"That realm just appeared!"
Standing behind the counter, Lin Tian smiled slightly.
"You're welcome to."
Mo Tian nodded.
Without hesitation, he walked toward the advanced machines on the third floor.
The watching cultivators quickly followed him.
Everyone wanted to see what kind of challenge the Mythic Realm contained.
The machine activated.
The screen flashed.
Moments later, Mo Tian's consciousness entered the simulation.
Inside the Heavenly War Domain, a completely different battlefield appeared.
Endless clouds stretched across the sky.
Floating stone platforms formed a massive arena suspended in the heavens.
Ancient banners fluttered in the wind.
And in the distance…
Armies could be seen marching across the divine battlefield.
Inside the computer shop, the watching cultivators stared at the screen in awe.
"This place is huge."
"It looks like a battlefield between gods."
Standing at the center of the floating platform, Mo Tian slowly looked around.
Then the first enemy appeared.
A tall armored warrior descended from the sky.
Golden armor covered his body.
A massive spear rested in his hand.
The system message appeared.
Enemy Detected
Heavenly General
Inside the shop, the crowd leaned closer to the screen.
Because the next battle was about to begin.
And if the Mythic Realm truly lived up to its name…
Then even a cultivator as powerful as Mo Tian might finally face a challenge worthy of his strength.
