Chapter 317: [Swordsmanship Aptitude 9: Innate Sword Body]

The kitten went into self-isolation.

Why was my tribulation crossing so miserably, but little junior brother’s is so calm and composed?

It feels like being caught in the rain on the way home. The weaker cultivators are like those without an umbrella, drenched in the rain.

The powerful cultivators are the ones with umbrellas, but they still end up with wet shoes and trouser legs.

Lu Xun, on the other hand, is superior. With a wave of his sleeve…

The sky clears!

Mao Nanbei went into self-isolation because she had just experienced the heavenly tribulation of the sixth realm.

When she broke through the third realm, the spiritual energy vortex made her shed fur, leaving cat hair all over the place.

When breaking through the sixth realm, she was struck by lightning to the point that her fur was curling…

Before going down the mountain, she used her spiritual energy to straighten her fur, especially those on her ears, to avoid damaging her image.

Nevertheless, she was still pleased for her little junior brother.

Not to mention anything else, the higher the cultivation base, the longer the lifespan, so as long as Lu Xun doesn’t “die prematurely”, she could enjoy his cooking for a few more decades.

Slurp! Just thinking about it makes her happy.

Mao Nanbei stood at the front and seriously said to Ji Li and Lin Chan behind her, “You girls should watch carefully, it won’t be long before you’ll also face the tribulation, consider this as learning from my experience…”

As she was speaking, she turned her head and saw that Ji Li’s eyes were filled with little stars, and Lin Chan was also staring at Lu Xun intently, making her words seem superfluous.

At this moment, Lu Xun’s absorption of spiritual energy had reached a critical point.

Brilliant spiritual energy poured crazily into his body, bringing him an all-around improvement.

This process was not painful, but rather, as comfortable as when he tempered himself with the Undying Fire.

Because the painful part had been “skipped” by Lu Xun, the spiritual energy vortex was directly converted into pure spiritual energy, which feels very comfortable, like soaking in a hot spring.

Of course, the biggest pleasure of soaking in a hot spring is having someone by your side.

This is not something that spiritual energy entering the body can replicate.

Thankfully, the whole process did not cause any trouble, and it was no different from when other cultivators faced their tribulation.

Just that his spiritual energy vortex was more violent, and his gains were greater.

This suggests that although Lu Xun, the Non-Swordbearer, is unique, Heaven and Earth didn’t seem to regard him as an aberration.

Simply put, the Heavenly Dao still considers him human.

Didn’t see him as purely a sword.

Only when all the surrounding spiritual energy had entered his body and fully digested, did Lu Xun closely feel his own power growth.

A comprehensive increase of 10%, is quite significant.

For someone like him who gained a large number of special attribute points early and has robust spiritual power and divine sense, it’s like a snowball, the advantages can keep amplifying.

The current him, is much scarier than Boss Level!

If players of his level want to attack him, they might not be able to defeat him even if they team up!

Lu Xun is quite satisfied with this.

In front of him, the 31-level Explosive Temper Great Cane Hero from his previous life, can only be instantly killed.

“Strange, why am I using my past self as a unit of measurement?” Lu Xun ridiculed inwardly.

Then, he stood up, walked with a smile on his face towards the three girls in the distance.

It’s as if what he had just gone through wasn’t a tribulation, but just enjoyed a feast of Heaven and Earth.

Outside Lotus Village, a seductively dressed woman flew past on her sword.

She was wearing a tight outfit that accentuated her curvaceous figure.

Especially her long, straight legs, which were very eye-catching and could entice admirers to their knees.

If there were players present, they could certainly notice—this beauty is a red-name!

A red-name NPC can cause players to foam at the mouth with excitement.

The woman is a foreign race, her cultivation is at the peak of the fourth realm, considered decent in West State, but not too conspicuous.

After all, the fifth realm is a watershed, and only those above it can be considered as Great Cultivators.

Otherwise, no matter how old you are, you are just a cultivator.

“That waste of the Black Blood Tribe was killed, and even eighteen people died along with him. The altar was also destroyed!” She raged inwardly: “Who on Earth did this!”

She came here to see if there were any traces left.

As she passed by a small lake, she carefully sensed her surroundings using her racial talents, then muttered to herself: “The aroma of the sword…”

“It was a sword cultivator who did it.” She drew the conclusion.

Just as she was preparing to continue investigating, several sword lights flew in from the distance, very conspicuous.

She tried to conceal herself, but noticed that a handsome young man in blue robe glanced at her.

The man’s cultivation base was supposedly lower than hers, yet he detected her presence sharply.

This made her vigilant.

Fortunately, the man glanced casually, treating her as an ordinary sword cultivator of West State, then continued to fly forward.

“He is indeed quite good-looking and suits my taste.” The woman exhaled deeply and said to herself after the man left.

Of course, she also recognized the identities of these people through their outfits – they came from two major sword sects!

The woman glanced again at the back figure of the most eye-catching man in the crowd, and then paused slightly.

They actually flew toward Lotus Village and landed at the entrance of the village!

What was going on?

Taking into account the aura of the sword she perceived near the small lake…

“Hiss” The woman drew in a cold breath, concluding in her heart:

“The altar was destroyed by two major sword sects!”

Without a second thought, she quickly fled the scene.

This matter was beyond her authority.

In fact, this area had to be treated as a forbidden territory for foreign races, never to be approached again!

If they attract the attention of the two major sword sects again, their entire plan for the West State might be affected.

“The grand scheme is of utmost importance!” She chose decisively to surrender her curiosity.

Meanwhile, outside Lotus Village.

Ye Sui’an stood at the entrance of the village, contemplating for a moment before walking inside.

Yes, upon receiving the message relayed from Lu Xun’s people, not only did he immediately make arrangements, but he also rushed here personally.

“Matters related to Elder Lu are my business as well. I must not only pay attention but ensure the matter is handled with great care!” Ye Sui’an thought.

Perhaps this was the power of idols.

The sword cultivators of One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain who came here for protection did not hide their identities.

As the giants of the West State, what did they have to hide?

The most powerful entities in West State were them. They openly showed their identities, indicating: we are taking over this place!

This was indeed the most effective way.

When the group of sword cultivators descended from the sky, the villagers naturally thought they had encountered immortals.

Ye Sui’an, who led the group, had a charisma of 9. He appeared very celestial, fitting people’s imagination of immortals.

Only… compared to the black-robed immortal who came a few days ago, he was slightly inferior.

First, Ye Sui’an inquired about the situation from the village chief.

The village chief didn’t know much, let alone that Lu Xun killed 18 people to protect the village.

All they knew was that Lu Xun saved Ah Bao’s mother from the villain, nothing more.

But who was Ye Sui’an?

He was no fool.

“If Elder Lu seriously asked me to send people to protect this place, it couldn’t be just because of a single evil cultivator.”

“I reckon Elder Lu must have done more heroic deeds, just without letting these villagers know.”

“Alas, these villagers don’t even know Lu Xun’s name, let alone who helped them.”

Hiding all deeds and fame.

After expressing admiration for Lu Xun in his heart, Ye Sui’an deliberately asked the village chief to take him to Ah Bao’s house.

Ah Bao’s mother had awakened. The sudden change in their home made this usually fiery-tempered woman look like a different person.

The man she despised was gone.

She no longer had to mend clothes stitch by stitch for that donkey-like man during her rest time.

But why did it hurt so much?

If it weren’t for the jujubes Lu Xun left on the back mountain, and Ah Bao’s relentless persuasion to have her eat one to replenish her spirit, she might have fallen seriously ill.

When it comes to comforting people, Ye Sui’an didn’t have much talent, so he was at a loss for words.

He only saw a jujube placed in front of the dead man’s tablet.

He recognized it. It was a jujube from the back mountain of the Demon Sect.

When he was traveling with Lu Xun before, Lu Xun had also offered him jujubes.

Lu Xun gave Ah Bao three, because Ah Bao wanted both his mom and dad to have some to eat.

Unfortunately, his dad couldn’t eat it anymore, so they could only leave it in front of his tablet.

Looking at the boy, Ye Sui’an speculated, “It seems Elder Lu must have been quite fond of this child.”

He instinctively walked over to Ah Bao, crouched down, and gently tapped the boy’s forehead.

He was probing his aptitude.

The next moment, ripples upon ripples spread out in the air.

Eight ripples in total!

This surprised even Ye Sui’an.

What surprised him even more was that he detected a faint hint of an Innate Sword Body aura in the boy, similar to his own!
