There's Something Wrong With This Account

Chapter 294: Our Goal is to Stir Things Up

The clash of ten thousand swords converged, the sound enormous, piercing the heavens!

The spectacle frightened the surrounding stationed disciples into rushing out to see what was happening.

The stationed disciples from the two major Sword Sects saw Ping Shanhai and Qian Zhengyi, and hastily paid their respects.

Then, they shouted at Ye Sui’an, “Elder Brother Ye!”

Next, their eyes gathered involuntarily on Lu Xun.

Despite wearing a bamboo hat, he exuded an otherworldly and transcendent aura that inevitably captivated their attention.

The symbolic black robe, the symbolic black sword sheath, could this be the legendary Lu Xun of the Demon Sect?

The sound of the Clash of Ten Thousand Swords was so loud that it might alarm everyone within a hundred li.

After exchanging glances, Ping Shanhai and Qian Zhengyi raised their Divine Swords. With a slight pull of their fingers, the Divine Swords were halfway out of their sheaths.

A sound of sword cry emitted from the Divine Swords, and the Sword Tomb quickly regained its peace.

Here, the Divine Swords were their king!

Seeing that the excited swords in the Sword Tomb finally calmed down, Ping Shanhai sheathed his Divine Sword, and then looked at Lu Xun, exclaiming:

“Natural Sword Embryo, truly extraordinary!”

As soon as Lu Xun arrived, such a phenomenon occurred. They naturally attributed the cause to him.

Lu Xun smiled slightly, did not deny it, but modestly said: “You flatter me.”

Ye Sui’an and Ji Li, standing behind him, looked at Lu Xun with admiration in their eyes.

Ji Li: “Lu Xun is the best!”

Ye Sui’an: “I am far inferior to Elder Lu!”

Meanwhile, Lu Xun was warning the little sword in his Sword Heart not to cause any more mischief.

It was Lu Xun’s secret; he didn’t want it inadvertently exposed.

The little sword sensed Lu Xun’s attitude, and it vibrated resentfully twice as if to say:

“I’m just making a casual call, why are they making such a loud noise!”

Hey! You were the one who provoked them first, and now you’re pretending to be aggrieved?

Look at your cheeky little demeanor. I wonder whom you’re imitating!

To Lu Xun, it was just a little interlude, but to others, it was a major event.

If he could provoke a clash of ten thousand swords even before entering the Sword Tomb, what kind of spectacle would it be if Lu Xun stepped into the realm of the Sword Tomb?

Of course, curiosity aside, they definitely couldn’t let him enter the Sword Tomb, which would violate the rules.

Ping Shanhai and Qian Zhengyi could only sigh in their hearts: “Natural Sword Embryo! The highest swordsmanship aptitude, Natural Sword Embryo!

It’s a pity that he is not in our One Sword Mountain/Ten Thousand Sword Mountain. It’s really regrettable!”

With this in mind, they couldn’t help thinking about not only Lu Xun but also his disciple, Lin Chan, who is also a Natural Sword Embryo!

This was no longer a secret. After the Demon Sect’s Outer Sect Competition, everyone in the cultivation world knew about it.

Thinking of this, they became even more envious.

As high-ranking members of their Sects, they naturally wished more talents would join their Sects to strengthen them.

The ordinary disciples on the side, however, did not think so much. They just looked curiously at Lu Xun, amazed at his talent.

Although they had heard countless rumors about the Natural Sword Embryo before, there’s a saying – Seeing is believing!

They didn’t have much concept about Lu Xun’s legend. Now that they saw it with their own eyes, they were profoundly shocked.

So, this is a Natural Sword Embryo!

So, it can provoke a Clash of Ten Thousand Swords!

Among the stationed disciples of the two major Sword Sects here, some were Inner Sect Disciples. They had been inside the Sword Tomb and had obtained swords suitable for them.

Therefore, they had experience.

When a sword chooses you, it will show its favor, making a sword cry to you.

So, did the current Clash of Ten Thousand Swords also imply this meaning?

This Lu Xun – He hadn’t even entered the Sword Tomb, yet all the swords in the Tomb wanted to go with him while he was standing outside!?

For a while, they didn’t know what to say due to the complex emotions in their hearts.

When we entered the mountain, we could show off in front of our peers for half a year if three or four swords chose us.

But then look at him…

They really felt like crawling into a hole.

This man, who came all the way from the Demon Sect, had outshone them all with an incomparable bearing.

After causing a commotion, Lu Xun removed his bamboo hat, revealing an apologetic smile to everyone present.

If anyone else had behaved as recklessly as he had, they might have provoked anger and resentment.

However, it was hard for anyone to stay mad at the sight of his face.

Additionally, among the disciples present, the most talented was Ye Sui’an, who openly admired Lu Xun. No one else was in a position to express objection.

Who knows if our disdain of Lu Xun might provoke Ye Sui’an to be the first to stand up for him…

Everyone knows that Brother Ye is easy-going and amiable, but he won’t stand anyone speaking ill of Lu Xun!

“Ah, since I’ve come to West State, it’s hard to avoid causing a bit of trouble.” Lu Xun thought to himself.

As a Non-Swordbearer, he wasn’t exactly welcome among the sword cultivators. After arriving in West State, it was inevitable for him to kick up a storm.

Who but him would challenge the sword cultivators, in a place where Sword Dao was flourishing…

And as for the players covertly mixed among the resident disciples, they couldn’t care less about what was happening. They were too busy multitasking, writing posts on the forum!

It wasn’t every day they had a chance to see the Purple Palace. If they didn’t record a video, take screenshots, or write a post, it would be a waste of a great opportunity for them to show off!

Once the spectacle had subsided, everyone returned to the main topic at hand and headed towards the Trial Ground, “Moon in the Well”.

The entrance to the Demon Sect’s “Turtle’s Longevity” was a dry well, while the Sword Sects’ “Moon in the Well” also used a well as an entrance, although there was a slight difference.

It was wet.

This was a well with water in it.

Limpy Ping Shanhai said to Lu Xun: “The ‘Moon in the Well’ is a bit different from other Trial Grounds, it’s slightly more dangerous, so there are two tests that must be passed before you can enter.”

“I already know your current cultivation base, Lu my friend, but this rule was set by the ancestor, so we still have to go through the process.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Xun nodded and replied, “Then let’s abide by the rules.”

Lu Xun didn’t mind because rules were rules.

He believed that even when Ye Sui’an had been in his situation, though everyone knew he met the requirements, he still had to go through the necessary process.

As for the so-called tests, Lu Xun was aware of their content.

Although in his previous life he had never been to the “Moon in the Well”, he had read several related posts on the forum and was fully aware of the procedures.

The first test involved proving the sword cultivator’s cultivation level and total amount of spiritual power, which had to be at least at Great Perfection, or level 20.

The total amount of spiritual power needed to reach the common level for this stage.

That means, if the average level 20 cultivator’s total spiritual power is determined to be 100, you must exceed 100 to enter.

Those cultivators who have achieved Great Perfection but whose levels are unstable, or whose abilities are extremely poor, are forbidden from entering.

They’re afraid those types of cultivators will die…

Soon, the disciple guarding this place brought forth an unusually old oil lamp and placed it on a stone in the distance.

This old lamp was called the “Spirit Lamp”. Once it came into contact with spiritual power, it would light up.

It was an excellent tool for measuring total spiritual power.

All you need to do was stand at a distance and attempt to light the Spirit Lamp with your spiritual power.

If you managed to light it from a hundred steps away, you’d pass the test.

Many players who enjoyed working creatively loved this test. They treated it as a game and competed against each other on the forum to see who could light the lamp at the furthest distance.

The ones who performed well would foolishly proclaim themselves “Lighting Buddha Master”…

Upon seeing the Spirit Lamp properly positioned in the distance, Ping Shanhai said, “Lu my friend, let us begin.”

Lu Xun nodded and glanced at the Spirit Lamp, which was still quite a distance away from him.

There was a considerable distance from where he stood to where the Spirit Lamp was located; it was easily several hundred steps.

He raised his finger and pointed casually towards it.

“Swish!”

Surprisingly, the lamp did not light up.

Because, with Lu Xun’s simple gesture…

it cracked open.
