Chapter 126
?Game–Legend of Sword and Fairy completed?
?Ink Fairy: Survived?
?Demonic half-demon general Luo Feng: Defeated?
?Startling Swan Sword Mantra: Comprehended?
?With your tenacious willpower, keen sense of danger, and courage that fears not death, you have successfully rescued Ink Fairy from Soul Drowning Lake and quelled the turmoil in the city. Although hundreds of thousands have perished, those fortunate enough to survive should now realize the importance of peace and safety, as well as Fairy Yu’s protection… Your deeds are immeasurable in virtue?
?Completion Rating: Red-Clad Beauty (you have earned Ink Fairy’s friendship)?
?Unlocked Achievement Badge: Startling Swan Sword Intent (you have gained the favor of the Startling Swan Immortal Sword, with a +30% increase in friendliness towards you)?
Li Muyang blinked as he read the completion summary that popped up.
“This summary… is different from the previous ones?”
Previously, the completion summary would give a score, and the higher the score, the better the reward.But this time, there was no score for his completion, just the friendship of Ink Fairy.
—What use is that?
Ink Fairy was a figure from thousands of years ago, probably long dead in the dark turmoil of those times.
Ink Fairy’s friendship was of no use to him.
Li Muyang continued to read, and the system’s summary interface scrolled down.
Finally, it came to the completion reward that Li Muyang was looking forward to.
?Completion rewards available for collection, would you like to claim your completion reward??
?Current selectable rewards (choose one of three)?
??Celestial Wind Cloud Body Technique? (Incomplete)?
?Taiyi Dividing Light TalismanX10?
?Item Advancement TalismanX1?
?Host, please note that after claiming the reward, the game entry will close, and you will not be able to enter again?
The game rewards that popped up in Li Muyang’s field of vision made him breathe a sigh of relief.
Good, there was finally a secret manual.
But it’s incomplete?
Li Muyang hesitated for a moment, then entered the details interface to carefully examine the three rewards.
??Celestial Wind Cloud Body Technique? (Incomplete): A cultivation technique created by Fairy Yu and Ink Fairy, ethereal and otherworldly, with extremely high requirements for comprehension. The complete scripture contains thirty-six chapters, with approximately twenty-one chapters in the fragment. Despite significant content loss, it remains an excellent cultivation method.? ?
?Taiyi Dividing Light Talisman (low-grade spiritual talisman): Instantly conjures 68,000 illusory Sword Qi shadows, among which 6,800 are real sword qi, capable of killing those at the Foundation Establishment Realm.?
?Item Advancement Talisman: Can increase the grade of a system item by +1?
(Current items that can be upgraded: Flesh and Bone Green Garment, Dharma-Annihilation Wheel)
“…This is a tough choice.”
Li Muyang scratched his head, feeling conflicted.
Logically, he should choose the cultivation manual, but the reward this time is a fragment with too much missing content.
Moreover, the?Celestial Wind Cloud Body Technique? is a cultivation method of the immortal path.
Cultivating an immortal path technique within the Demonic Sect?
No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t seem like a good idea.
The other two rewards, the Taiyi Dividing Light Talisman and the Item Advancement Talisman, are both valuable.
The Taiyi Dividing Light Talisman is said to be capable of killing those at the Foundation Establishment Realm, but its actual power is formidable enough to make even those at the Golden Core Realm wary.
And the Item Advancement Talisman is a treasure among treasures.
The Dharma-Annihilation Wheel is already a low-grade spiritual weapon.
If I use this talisman to forcibly upgrade it by one grade, wouldn’t it become a medium-grade spiritual weapon?
“Let’s wait and see for a bit longer.”
Li Muyang wasn’t in a hurry to claim his reward just yet.
He was still gauging Yan Xiaoru’s attitude towards him.
If Yan Xiaoru sincerely wanted to promote him and had no ill intentions, then the?Netherworld Demon Manual? she offered him could be worth cultivating.
If he cultivates the Netherworld Demon Manual, Li Muyang could then choose the Item Advancement Talisman.
Directly upgrading the Dharma-Annihilation Wheel to the grade of a medium-grade spiritual weapon, he would then likely surpass the ordinary direct disciples of the Demonic Sect in terms of magical treasure configuration.
He pushed open the door of his room and walked out, humming a tune softly, his mood pleasant.
The turmoil in Demon Sword City had finally ended, and he had successfully cleared the game?Legend of Sword and Fairy?
Everything was moving in a positive direction.
The past four months of searching had already exhausted the patience of the big figures of the Demonic Sect.
Yan Xiaoru’s safe return had completely dispelled the big figures’ thoughts of searching for the immortal sword.
According to the information provided by Yan Xiaoru, that ancient immortal sword had flown away long ago.
The sect master of the Demonic Sect had the disciples search the mountains outside the city as a final act of desperation.
In reality, after only a few days of fruitless searching, the disciples in white robes began to withdraw from Demon Sword City one after another.
One by one, flying boats rose into the sky, heading back towards the sect.
The elders of the Demonic Sect were the first to leave, leaving only the injured Yan Xiaoru to continue her closed-door cultivation in Demon Sword City.
Now, Demon Sword City had returned to its previous state of desolation and emptiness, no longer filled with inner disciples in white robes walking around.
Even the howling wind and snow in the city had stopped.
Although the wind blowing in their faces was still cool, ducks could already be seen playing in the river.
Warm spring was just around the corner.
Li Muyang stood at the entrance of the courtyard, stretching lazily in the refreshing breeze.
As low-ranking outer disciples, they were naturally the last to be evacuated and return to the sect.
It was said that Elder Yan had finished her closed-door cultivation yesterday, and in a couple of days, everyone would follow Elder Yan back to the sect.
When they arrived, the lively group of over a hundred people had almost filled the entire place.
Now, it was empty and had lost more than half of its people.
To be honest, it felt a bit lonely.
But that’s how the Demonic Sect is, and Li Muyang had long understood the dangers of the demonic path, which is why he thought of leaving the sect to become a free and unbound person.
However, after being trapped in the secret realm for four months, Li Muyang couldn’t leave just yet.
Because on the third day after Yan Xiaoru finished her closed-door cultivation, everyone in this place received news.
The siblings from the Li Family of Jiuyuan City, as well as the young man Guan Xiaoshun from a remote town, had all been specially chosen by Elder Yan and were exceptionally promoted to inner disciples.
“Congratulations, congratulations!”
People coming to offer their congratulations nearly wore out the threshold of the courtyard where Li Muyang and Guan Xiaoshun stayed.
The arrival of this news made Li Muyang sigh softly.
He had to admit that although Yan Xiaoru was an elder of the demonic path, she still had a sense of humanity.
He had saved Yan Xiaoru’s life in the secret realm, and after returning to reality, Yan Xiaoru’s actions were sending a signal to Li Muyang.
–Your life-saving grace will be repaid by this elder.
Dealing with an outer disciple, Yan Xiaoru didn’t need to be so attentive, but she still gave Li Muyang many exceptional favors.
This reticent and aloof elder of the Demonic Sect wasn’t as fierce as she appeared on the surface.
Having been exceptionally promoted, Li Muyang finally confirmed Elder Yan’s goodwill.
He confidently took out the?Netherworld Demon Manual? from his Qiankun Ring and began to cultivate it.
At the same time, he claimed the game reward from?Legend of Sword and Fairy? and upgraded the grade of his Dharma-Annihilation Wheel to that of a medium-grade spiritual weapon.
At this moment, Li Muyang, with his cultivation technique and the magical treasure in hand, was nearly ahead of all the direct disciples of the Demonic Sect.
The only thing he lacked was cultivation level.
Having been in this world for nearly a year, the always cautious and low-profile Li Muyang was finally able to hold his head high, no longer an ignored rat in the gutter.
He stood at the entrance of the courtyard, taking a deep breath.
The spring breeze has arrived.
