There’s Something Wrong With This Account

Chapter 49: 049, (Natural Sword Embryo)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

At this moment, Lu Xun has cursed the damn game countless times in his heart.

What happened to the promised one-click upgrade and why did it turn out to be so torturous?

In the beginning, he felt warm and cozy; it was comfortable and fulfilling.

But later on, he felt that his body was about to explode!

It was just too much to handle!

Fortunately, when he reached a certain critical point, the little sword in his Sword Heart finally formed successfully!

Lu Xun, sensing the small sword within him, felt a sense of disappointment.

After all, he was used to wielding big sticks; he could accept being given an extravagant longsword, but this needle-like light sword in his Sword Heart was just inconceivable.

“So… the Sword Cultivating Technique is about nurturing a small sword within the Sword Heart? Interesting.” Lu Xun didn’t understand yet that he was going down the wrong path.

Although his Experience Points had decreased from over ten thousand to 650, he had no regrets.

It’s an Orange Level technique! The supreme skill of the Heavenly Dust

Continent!

He still wasn’t sure about the strength of this Sword Cultivating Technique, but he was sure that it was going to be awesome.

Later, he would ask Little Loli and Second Senior Sister and try to adapt to the small sword inside him as soon as possible.

Lu Xun took a deep breath, relaxed his tense body, and slowly opened his eyes. Typical novels would describe a person’s eyes flashing with sword-like chill, but he didn’t have that.

Apart from being overly handsome, he seemed ordinary and not much different than before.

Mao Nanbei quickly approached Lu Xun, her little hands wandering over his body. “Little Junior Brother, do you feel anything strange with your body?” she asked anxiously and with concern.

She was genuinely scared. Their master hadn’t come back yet, and if it turned out that she had harmed Little Junior Brother due to her carelessness, it would be a massive sin! Moreover, his cooking was delicious, she couldn’t afford to lose him!

Lu Xun, facing Mao Nanbei’s gaze, shook his head. “No, do you see anything wrong, Fourth Senior Sister?”

“That’s good, that’s good! You are really lucky!” She sighed in relief and patted Lu Xun’s shoulder.

Then she added, “Little Junior Brother, you just rushed into cultivation. You failed, didn’t you? You’re lucky you didn’t end up with cultivation backlash!” “The Sword Cultivating Technique is a top-tier technique that requires slow comprehension. Under no circumstances should you cultivate it unless you’ve fully comprehended it; otherwise, it could lead to a huge disaster!”

She pointed at the two golden bells on her wrist. “Also, look, you don’t even have this kind of personal treasure. Even if you were to practice, you wouldn’t get any result.”

At first, Lu Xun was all ears, but the more he listened, the more something felt off.

Personal treasure?

Does that mean I need to have a suitable sword to practice with?

Confused, Lu Xun organized his thoughts and said, “Fourth Senior Sister, I think I succeeded in my cultivation, but based on what you said… I guess I failed?”

Does that mean he wasted over ten thousand Experience Points?

But the system clearly stated that it was upgradable!

Damn system! Is a forced upgrade acceptable?

Obviously, Mao Nanbei gave off a sense of unreliability through and through, so she grabbed Lu Xun and hurried towards the bamboo grove.

In the bamboo grove, Second Senior Sister sat on a giant rock, listening to Mao Nanbei and Lu Xun’s recount with a serious expression on her face.

Both she and Mao Nanbei found it hard to believe.

Second Senior Sister was also cultivating the Sword Cultivating Technique, and Mao Nanbei was cultivating a technique for knives, so she was practicing the Blade Nurturing Technique.

Both of them understood that this technique wasn’t easy to master or comprehend.

Yet, Lu Xun indeed practiced the Sword Cultivating Technique, and that was a fact… it seemed that he might have taken a wrong turn!

Now what needs to be seen is how far off the track he has gone and whether it is possible to get back on it.

With a light wave of her Daoist robe sleeve, Lu Xun was lifted up by a stream of air and then floated in front of Second Senior Sister, his legs crossed.

So far, he had mostly seen her back, occasionally glimpsing a partial side view of her face. Now, for the first time, they were face-to-face at close quarters.

How to put it, Second Senior Sister’s face was as striking as her overall demeanor – thin.

Not unattractively so; quite the contrary, she had a unique presence like the winter plum in the snow.

Her eyebrows were thin and her lips slightly thin. Plus, her face was really thin, as if she was pushing the limits. It seemed that if her eyebrows were even thinner or her lips thinner or her face thinner, it would become unfavorable, but right now, it seemed just right.

Still, Lu Xun thought that Second Senior Sister was too thin. If her cheeks were slightly rounder, she would undoubtedly look even more beautiful.

Just her elegance and appearance would give people a sense of distance because she radiated a cold vibe. But Lu Xun could see the concern in her eyes.

She noticed Lu Xun looking at her and stuttered, “Close… close your eyes and calm… calm down!”

Second Senior Sister seemed slightly annoyed.

Lu Xun obediently closed his eyes and quieted his mind.

Second Senior Sister started to examine the changes that occurred in him. There were no abnormalities in Lu Xun’s body.

The Sword Heart is located near the Qi Sea, which is the most mysterious area of a cultivator. Even highly cultivated practitioners cannot freely probe another’s Qi Sea. Therefore, the Sword Heart was hidden by the Qi Sea and difficult to detect with Divine Sense.

Since his body and Cultivation Base were unaffected, the important thing now was to find out what changes occurred in Lu Xun’s Sword Heart.

If Divine Sense was unable to perceive it, Second Senior Sister had to draw out her sword – the wooden hairpin in her hair!

With her right hand making a beckoning gesture in the air, the wooden hairpin flew into the space between her and Lu Xun, transforming into a wooden sword.

As the wooden hairpin was removed, the Second Sister’s coiled hair fell and swayed in the wind, adding a touch of soft beauty to her cool face.

Unfortunately, Lu Xun had his eyes closed, so he couldn’t see it.

Her fair and slender fingers manipulated a sword technique, and the wooden sword emitted a faint humming sound, signifying its spiritual nature.

At this moment, the small sword inside Lu Xun’s Sword Heart also shook slightly, as if it was provoked!

“Sword hidden in the heart?” Second Senior Sister murmured to herself.

She could almost confirm that Lu Xun did succeed in mastering the Sword Cultivating Technique.

However, he hasn’t got a personal sword yet, which resulted in some deviations.

But in principle… there shouldn’t be such a result.

How can a human body nurture a sword?

Unless… Little Junior Brother really has that kind of constitution mentioned in legends!

Previously, when he glanced at the half-formed Sword Qi in Lead Peak, he was able to condense into a Sword Heart. Both Shen Yan and Second Senior Sister had speculated in that direction.

And now, hiding the sword in the heart and nurturing it with the body, it was almost a tough argument!

Unable to restrain herself, Second Senior Sister blurted out, “Natural… Natural Sword Embryo!”
