Chapter 495: 495, [Little Yu, it’s me]
Lu Xun looked at his own reflection in the bead, observing it carefully for a moment. Then a breeze blew by, and the bead turned into dust, scattered with the wind.
It seemed its mission was to save Elder Gui. Now that Elder Gui had been saved, it had no reason to exist anymore.
Since he acquired the green bead from the Shallow Water Temple, it had helped Lu Xun a lot.
Such a treasure disappeared just like that, yet Lu Xun didn’t feel a bit of heartache.
On the contrary, he felt relieved.
In his eyes, Elder Gui, who would often dust off his clothes and act like an old butler, was definitely much more important than this green bead.
However, even Sir couldn’t recognize this bead, which had become a bit of a mystery.
Yan Li sent Elder Gui back to the small house at the foot of Hidden Mountain.
Then he swept his sleeve, and those magical weapons that had left Hidden Mountain returned to their original places.
Having done all these, Yan Li turned to the crowd and said: “Shen Yan, you should stay in the Sect and continue guarding the Sect.”
“Yes, Master.” Shen Yan replied.
“Little Junior Brother, Little Nanbei, I plan to go to the Ink Sea.” Yan Li said calmly.
“The Ink Sea?” Lu Xun recalled the dream upon hearing this.
In the dream, Senior Brother Yan Li was fighting against the Supreme Lord in the Ink Sea alone, and then he was seriously injured.
Senior Brother managed to kill the Supreme Lord, but he paid a huge price!
“Could it be… the Supreme Lord of the Foreign Race is in the Ink Sea?” Lu Xun pondered.
“Senior Brother, let me accompany you.” Lu Xun said.
“No rush.” Yan Li waved his hand.
He glanced at Lu Xun and said, “Little Junior Brother, you now hold the Sword Fate of the Five States, which can provide sword cultivators around you with a certain boost in swordsmanship. However, this range does not include the Ink Sea.”
Lu Xun nodded in understanding.
The Ink Sea’s domain is vast, boundless.
There are countless large and small islands in the sea. The Sword Fate within this range has not surrendered to Lu Xun.
Lu Xun guessed that he had to reach the Swordsmanship Aptitude Level 10, become a real Natural Sword Embryo, and promote to Great Perfection in Sword Dao to acquire the Sword Fate of the Ink Sea.
But… why did Senior Brother mention this?
Yan Li gave Lu Xun a small smile and said: “Little Junior Brother, if you can get the Sword Fate of the Ink Sea, you could be of great help to your Senior Brother.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Xun nodded slightly.
For Yan Li, the boost brought by a single Sword Fate buff is substantial enough.
“Gain more Swordsmanship Aptitude?” Lu Xun thought to himself.
He presently had over 10,000 Faction Contribution Points that he could spend in the store.
However, if he wanted to exchange for 1 more point of Swordsmanship Aptitude, he would need 40,000 Faction Contribution Points.
For the former Lu Xun, it would be very difficult to make up these three Crystals in Contribution Points, and it would be impossible to complete in a short time.
But for the present Lu Xun, the difficulty is not high. It just involves destroying a few more altars.
In those fragmented dreams, he also dreamt about destroying several altars, which meant that the number of altars he could find had increased.
At the same time, he could also verify what this peculiar dream really was through the altars.
“Senior Brother, could you wait a few days?” Lu Xun asked.
“Oh? Little Junior Brother, do you have some information about obtaining the Sword Fate of the Ink Sea?” Yan Li asked.
Lu Xun nodded.
“Okay, then I’ll wait for you in the Ink Sea!”
After saying that, Yan Li flew up into the sky and left.
The High Priest journeyed from the Ink Sea to the Demon Sect, now Yan Li would return from the Demon Sect to the Ink Sea.
…
…
“Fourth Sister, do you want to come with me?” Lu Xun turned and asked.
“Okay!” Mao Nanbei immediately jumped onto Lu Xun’s shoulder.
After chatting with Shen Yan for a while, Lu Xun flew out with Mao Nanbei.
Along the way, he leisurely said to Mao Nanbei, “Fourth Senior Sister, do you still remember our agreement?”
According to the agreement, once Lu Xun’s cultivation base surpassed Mao Nanbei, he could do whatever he wanted to Mao Nanbei.
“What? What are you saying, Little Junior Brother? The wind is too loud!” Mao Nanbei pretended to be confused.
The wind had clearly been blocked off…
Lu Xun gave a faint smile, unhurried.
There was still important business to attend to now, after these matters were dealt with, he would have delightful cat grooming time again.
This time, where should he start grooming from?
Hehe!
…
…
The destination of Lu Xun’s trip was West State.
According to the fragmented segments in his dreams, the Lu Xun in his dreams differed in no way from normal sword cultivators and didn’t take the path of Body Refining Sword as he is now. Therefore, he spent quite a long period of time in West State.
While he was in West State, he had numerous adventures and encountered many swordsmanship masters.
Of course, he also helped destroy several ancient altars in West State.
As mentioned before, the reason why the Sword Mountain Elder chose to establish Sword Mountain in West State was due to the existence of many ancient altars left behind there to suppress it.
Thus, there were quite a few altars in West State, waiting for Lu Xun to go and deal with them.
The paper crane flew quickly, with Lu Xun at the eighth level displaying much greater speed than before.
Upon arriving in West State, Lu Xun began looking for the altars based on his memory.
He was no longer as scared and cautious as before, worrying about encountering danger after entering the altars.
His character level of 83 and his powerful strength gave him tremendous confidence.
When he saw an altar, he would barge right in. If there were no foreigners inside, he would start demolishing straight away. If there were, he would start killing indiscriminately.
Lu Xun didn’t take much time to demolish three altars in West State, earning a total of 15,000 contribution points, 45 million experience points, as well as 9 random special attribute points as a reward.
With his total special attribute points getting higher and higher, the number of reward points was also getting fewer and fewer.
On the contrary, the reward of experience points was getting more and more generous, but for Lu Xun now, even 45 million experience points were not enough to level up.
After demolishing the third altar, Lu Xun suddenly paused.
Because he felt his spiritual mark!
He had left a spiritual mark on Lu Yu’s paper crane, which meant that Lu Yu was likely nearby.
After being advised by his master, Lu Xun’s attitude had already changed. Coupled with his substantial progress in strength, it gave him more confidence.
He was somewhat eager to see Lu Yu at this moment.
Lu Xun changed the direction of the paper crane and flew towards the northwest.
Before long, the paper crane landed in a small grove, and he saw Lu Xiaoyu who was picking spirit grass.
Xiao Long Bao was not by Lu Xiaoyu’s side, it seemed like she had not logged in today, or was busy with other things.
Otherwise, these two best friends were practically inseparable in the game.
Clad in a black robe and holding a sword sheath, Lu Xun descended from the sky, landing right in front of Lu Xiaoyu.
Lu Yu looked up and was surprised to see Purple Palace appearing out of the blue.
Fate?
Or coincidence?
Most importantly, she saw a familiar look in his eyes, and a familiar smile across his face.
For a moment, two faces seemed to overlap in her vision.
Reacting unconsciously, she blurted out, “Brother…”
After saying this, Lu Yu felt foolish, as if she was doing something absurd.
Maybe she missed her brother too much.
But surprising her, the man before her, Purple Palace, looked directly at her, and said softly,
“It’s me, Little Yu.”
