Chapter 293: 293, Clash of Ten Thousand Swords (Thanks to the Alliance Hierarch “An Chen QAQ” for the reward!)

Lu Xun was dressed in a black robe, holding a sword sheath, with the bright light of the Boundary Monument radiating behind him.

He took out his bamboo hat again, slightly twirling it, flipping the hat around, and then raising his hand to put it back on his head.

This was a visually striking scene. Many silly players were busy screenshotting and recording videos to post on forums later, scamming a bunch of replies.

“Ladies! Why chase stars when the game’s NPC smells so sweet?” Stars began to appear in the eyes of the female players present.

A handful of male players also looked completely enthralled.

With his face hidden again beneath the bamboo hat, Lu Xun gave a slight smile, having received a message from the Boundary Monument’s Dida:

“See you again! Don’t forget to come back and visit me!”

“I will,” he whispered.

Since flying was prohibited near the Boundary Monument, they only brought out their Flying Magical Treasures after they had walked some distance away.

Since they had agreed to travel together, there was no need for everyone to fly separately.

Qian Zhengyi took an ancient ship out of his storage ring. Everyone could board the ship and sail through the clouds together.

The atmosphere felt like taking a seaside vacation and running into a rich dude with a private yacht.

Lu Xun watched with envy. These large-scale flying magical weapons were not only expensive to construct, but they also consumed a lot of spiritual power.

Therefore, they usually wouldn’t rely on the users’ inner spiritual power to fly but drew power from the spirit stones instead.

As is commonly known, spirit stones serve as the standard currency in the Cultivation World… so, it’s like burning money to fly.

“Talk about flaunting wealth!” Lu Xun marveled internally.

Meanwhile, he was also wondering: “Should I ask Third Brother to get me one when I return to the sect?”

The benefits of having a wealthy sibling were apparent. Instead of feeling inadequate during such moments, the thought would simply be: “I want this too!”

Frankly speaking, for Lu Xun, a large-scale flying magical treasure didn’t seem necessary. A paper crane would suffice.

After all, he didn’t usually travel with a large group, unlike these sect bigwigs.

Such treasures were standard equipment for sect masters and elders; Shen Yan had one too.

However, when he took his disciples to other sects, he usually only brought out the large flying magical treasure when they were nearly at their destination…

It saved some energy.

His thrift was renowned.

Just a short distance away from the Monument of West State was the Trial Ground of One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain, the [Moon in the Well].

Flying there wouldn’t take more than a few hours.

Of all the trial grounds, [Moon in the Well] was the only one Lu Xun never visited in his previous life.

This was because the trial was specifically designed for Sword Cultivators. Those who were not Sword Cultivators could not enter.

Lu Xun’s main character was a practitioner of the big stick, the Explosive Temper Great Cane Hero, and was not qualified to enter [Moon in the Well].

As a result, [Moon in the Well] was the most criticized by players. One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain were often verbally attacked by the other easygoing and friendly players.

The reason was simple: Sword Cultivators could gain experience and compete for rankings in our trials, but we couldn’t participate in their trials?

How about that!

However, because of this, the leaderboard for [Moon in the Well] was also called the [Sword Cultivator Rankings].

Sword Cultivator players were eager to make a name for themselves on the list, each striving to climb higher.

According to his memories from his previous life, the sword-serving child Li Zuole, that Lu Xun accepted, was ranked second among player sword cultivators in [Moon in the Well].

His name was clearly an imitation of Li Xunhuan. But instead of Little Li’s Flying Dagger, he was known as Little Li’s Flying Sword.

Originally, he was a player from Ten Thousand Sword Mountain. No one knew why he became a disciple of our Demon Sect.

But what’s so special about being a disciple of Ten Thousand Sword Mountain? Isn’t being my sword-serving child better?

The ancient boat, understated luxury discernible in its simplicity, sailed through the cloud sea, quickly reaching the vicinity of “Moon in the Well”.

“Moon in the Well” was located near One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain, in a very special place.

It was beside the Sword Tomb.

The nature of the Sword Tomb was similar to the Demon Sect’s Hidden Mountain, both filled with relics left behind by the deceased sword cultivators of the two great Sword Sects.

However, the Hidden Mountain stored all sorts of things, containing even lesser-known Magical Weapons like the Wolf Fang Club, Blood Drops, dice, and so on. In the Sword Tomb, there were only swords, all kinds of swords!

The disciples of the two great Sword Sects had the opportunity to visit the Sword Tomb when they entered the inner door.

In fact, almost all the large Sects of the Heavenly Dust Continent had such treasures, the only difference was their types.

This was one of the reasons why players wanted to join the great Sects.

If they got lucky and obtained some awe-inspiring Magical Weapon, wouldn’t they ascend to heaven?

Lu Xun stood there, glancing in the direction of the Sword Tomb.

All he could see was mist and fog, with no clear view of what waited inside.

This was similar to the Hidden Mountain, both were protected by a Mist Formation.

After all, these places were not just treasures, but also storage places for relics.

Leaving these relics on display for everyone to gawk at, or even to point out, was not appropriate.

For Lu Xun, the Sword Tomb was not a good place to visit.

If he went in, what would happen?

Low-grade swords would fly at his touch.

High-grade swords would cause him to fly out at his touch.

He could imagine that he would be very uncomfortable inside.

Others went there to claim swords, he would have to avoid them. Every sword would be like a landmine, a touch could result in disaster.

“Speaking of which, if I were part of the two Sword Sects and I still followed the path of Body Refining Sword, would I be buried in the Sword Tomb after my death, waiting for the predestined person?” He mused to himself.

This setting seemed to have a nice feel to it!

“But on closer thought, it seems like I also meet the criteria for the Hidden Mountain…”

However, on top of the Hidden Mountain, one side was graves, the other side was relics. It was unknown which category he, a Sword Person, would fall into.

Upon seeing Lu Xun curiously looking at the Sword Tomb, Ping Shanhai began to speak:

“This place is the Sword Tomb, one of the forbidden grounds of our two sects. Even I can’t enter and exit freely without a special reason.”

Lu Xun nodded, and took another look towards the Sword Tomb.

At this moment, the little sword inside his Sword Heart was quite excited, emitting a resounding sword cry!

Lu Xun felt a twist in his heart and murmured to himself: “This is bad!”

He glanced at Ping Shanhai and Qian Zhengyi. Fortunately, neither of them heard the sword crypt.

Even Ye Sui’an, whose Swordsmanship Aptitude was as high as 9 and was very sensitive to swords, showed no abnormalities and apparently couldn’t hear it.

For now, it seemed that only Little Chan, the Natural Sword Embryo, could hear its sword cry.

She was the most special one.

However, while sword cultivators couldn’t hear it, swords could!

In an instant, this resounding sword cry resonated throughout the whole area.

There was a moment of silence around, but after a few seconds, a massive upheaval occurred!

One sword cry after another came from the misty Sword Tomb, one after another.

The Clash of Ten Thousand Swords!
