Chapter 268: 268, Heaven and Earth Sword (Vote for Monthly Ticket)

Translator: 549690339

Time flies like an arrow, and the days and nights pass swiftly.

Days without worries to concern him always seem to fly by.

Recently, Lu Xun spent his days honestly cooking in the back mountain, and at night, he was whipped by the Sword Intent.

Of course, occasionally, he would let Little Chan come into his room to help him cultivate, but he wouldn’t let it happen too often.

Zhao Suihan and Xiao Ran bid farewell a few days ago. Before parting, both master and disciple extended warm invitations to Lu Xun, inviting him to visit the Luotian Sect when he has free time.

Before leaving, Zhao Suihan also gave Lu Xun a token of the Luotian Sect, her private token, as good as seeing her in person.

Given that Zhao Suihan is the Supreme Elder of the Luotian Sect, her status and position are quite special, so the importance of this token is obvious.

She really is a devoted fan, always giving the best.

As for Xiao Ran, she seemed to be hesitating about speaking. It seemed that she had a lot of parting words to say, but in the end, she just said, “Elder Lu Xun, until we meet again, I look forward to it.”

What’s going on? Why does your attitude feel increasingly like Ye Sui’an’s?

You are gradually turning into leaf-like!

Today, after cooking dinner for the people in the back mountain, Lu Xun stewed some candied pears in the kitchen, as a midnight snack for Mao Nanbei and Little Chan.

He was in a good mood today, because today was the last day of “Enveloped in Sword Intent”.

If he can get through tonight, he will gain 1 point of “Swordsmanship Aptitude”, which is pleasing.

“Little Junior Brother, why isn’t it stewed yet? Slurp!” Mao Nanbei tugged at Lu Xun’s sleeve.

“Fourth Sister, can you stop wiping your saliva on me every time you finish eating?” Lu Xun said helplessly.

“Ehhhh! Did I just eat snacks again?” Mao Nanbei was shocked.

“You did.” Lu Xun rolled his eyes.

When the candied pears were almost ready, Lu Xun instructed, “Well, I’m going back to my room to cultivate now, you and Little Chan can share it. Don’t eat it all by yourself, okay!”

“How could I! I’m the elder, how could I eat it all by myself?” Mao Nanbei was slightly angry.

Lu Xun playfully pinched her little nose, “You would.”

“Smack!” Mao Nanbei gently patted his big hand, and said unhappily, “Don’t be disrespectful, I am your elder sister!”

“Alright, alright, Fourth Sister, then your Little Junior Brother will take his leave first.” Lu Xun laughed and bowed.

“Go on, go on.” Mao Nanbei was already drooling, too lazy to chatter with him.

After leaving the kitchen, Lu Xun returned to his room.

He laid flat on the bed, slowly closing his eyes, calming his mind, and soon entered the dreamland.

However, this Sword Intent dream seemed different from the previous ones.

In past Sword Intent dreams, it was pitch black all around, in a state of chaos, giving people a feeling that could only be understood but not expressed in words.

But today was different, Lu Xun could see images.

He saw mountains, mountains that felt alien yet familiar to him.

“Aren’t these the mountains of the Demon Sect?” Lu Xun was stunned.

Only now they appeared untouched by human hands, still in a “wild” state.

The barren Lead Peak was particularly eye-catching among them.

“So the Lead Peak was barren like Shen Yan from the start.” Lu Xun was slightly surprised.

However, now the peak of Lead Peak was flattened by the First Elder with a single stroke of his sword, making it look like a huge sword sheath, but it wasn’t like this in the dreamscape.

Then, he saw a figure soar into the sky, holding a sword and stopping in front of the Lead Peak.

This middle-aged man had a slender body, radiant eyes, and was dressed in a black robe. The longsword in his hand seemed to contain boundless pressure.

It was Yan Li and The Sword Qi is Near!

He floated in the air, holding The Sword Qi is Near in front of him, said, “The Sword Qi is Near, are you sure you want to cut this mountain into a sheath?”

The Sword Qi is Near vibrated slightly, as if in affirmation.

It and Yan Li were almost of a like mind, so Yan Li naturally understood its intention.

He smiled casually and said, “That’s what you get for fighting with the sword sheath! Now you’re making amends.”

The Sword Qi is Near vibrated again, much more significantly than before.

“Ha, you still dare to say ‘a good man doesn’t argue with a woman’? Weren’t you very impressive when you quarreled?” Yan Li taunted.

The Sword Qi is Near became angry, made a sharp sword cry as if it was swearing.

“Alright, alright, no more teasing you. If you were half as skilled with women as me, you wouldn’t have ended up like this.”

After saying this, he casually swung The Sword Qi is Near in front of him. A Sword Qi was generated immediately.

“Whoosh!”

Lu Xun watched with wide eyes as the mountain peak was flatten!

The First Elder’s Sword Qi and Sword Intent gave him a straightforward feeling, that anything blocking his way can be cut down with a single stroke!

In other words, flattening the mountain peak only took half of his Sword Qi.

The remaining half is still in the Lead Peak, as the first line of defense in the Demon Sect’s Mountain Protection Array.

The moment the Lead Peak was flattened, Lu Xun’s dream shattered.

He sat up in alarm, his eyes bright.

Such a casual stroke of the sword, that could move the mountain and overturn the sea, was something he yearned for.

“When can I have such strength?” Lu Xun wondered.

Raising his hand, he lightly scratched the sword sheath, “So, the reason Lead Peak is shaped like this is because The Sword Qi is Near was making up with you?”

The black cord on the sword sheath started to float up. It coiled around itself, displaying an attitude of “I’m shy, I want to cover my face.”

Nevertheless, it didn’t take long before it seemed to recall its usual quarrels with the Sword Qi, the black rope floated up again, wriggling about as though listing its wrongdoings.

After scolding the Sword Qi, the black rope then rubbed against Lu Xun’s hand.

So flirtatious.

“Shall I take you to the Hidden Mountain tomorrow?” Lu Xun asked.

The sword sheath hesitated for a moment, then the black cord shook its “head.”

Both it and the Sword Qi were things that would not be damaged even through the long passage of time, thus, their cold war period… seemed to be quite long.

With this, the 30-day task of [Enveloped in Sword Intent] had been completed in full!

A prompt indicating the task completion appeared before Lu Xun, and without thinking, he directly claimed the task reward.

Just like before, every increase in Swordsmanship Aptitude brought about alterations in the world, whether big or small!

At this moment, streaks of golden light emerged within the Sword Heart, which were madly absorbed by the tiny sword within it.

It was vibrating at a high speed and emitted a succession of sword humming sounds that ordinary people could barely hear!

Outside, Lin Chan, who was eating candied pear nibble by nibble, abruptly stood up.

Others couldn’t hear it, but she could!

The teacher was sitting nearby, joking with Mao Nanbei, attempting to get a bite of the candied pear, only to be refused.

Seeing Lin Chan’s surprised expression, he smiled and waved his hand, “Sit down, there’s no need to worry.”

Mao Nanbei raised her head and asked, “What’s wrong, Little Chan?”

Lin Chan wrote on the table: “The sword is humming.”

Mao Nanbei was baffled, “What sword humming sound? I didn’t hear anything.”

She turned to look at their third senior brother, Zhuge Lai Fu, “Third senior brother, did you hear it?”

Zhuge Lai Fu shook his head, indicating that he didn’t hear anything either.

The teacher explained, “Your little junior brother has made another breakthrough in swordsmanship.”

“Really?” Mao Nanbei’s eyes lit up instantly.

As far as she knew, every time Lu Xun made a breakthrough in swordsmanship, it would trigger some sort of phenomenon.

“Hehe, there’s going to be some excitement to watch!” she said to herself.

Just as she expected, she soon heard the sword humming sound that she could hear.

These humming sounds were coming from the swords carried by disciples of the Demon Sect.

Whether it was the Magical Sword or the Spirit Sword, they all emitted a humming sound!

The sword cultivators of the Demon Sect were still a bit puzzled.

“What’s going on? Why is my sword humming?”

“Oh ho! My sword seems so excited!”

“I just saw an inner sect senior brother flying on his sword, and his Spirit Sword also started to vibrate, which almost made him lose his balance and nearly caused a traffic accident.”

The disciples of the Demon Sect, however, were already used to such odd occurrences.

“The Young Elder has made another great breakthrough so soon!”

“Hehe, the Young Elder is really awesome!”

“The scale of this event is bigger each time!”

Hearing the description of the various disciples of the Demon Sect, the casual players finally understood that the humming sound from their swords was due to Lu Xun’s breakthrough!

One person breaks through, and a myriad of swords converge!

Such an impressive display!!!

If this isn’t a world protagonist, what is!?

The hearty laughter of Shen Yan and others quickly spread throughout the sect.

“Hahahahahaha—-”

Full of vigor, they could laugh for a long time in one breath.

“Congratulations to our Young Elder!”

Under the lead of Shen Yan and others, the disciples of the Demon Sect immediately echoed out, “Congratulations to our Young Elder!”

The voices rose and fell, even drowning out the sword humming sound.

And at the next moment, fog began to rise from the peaks of the Demon Sect’s mountains.

It started very light, then gradually grew thicker and thicker.

It was very much like Lu Xun’s Sword Intent.

His Sword Intent was like this, like smoke and fog, coiling around his fingertips.

Soon, a thick fog enveloped each of the peaks of the Demon Sect’s mountains, as if each had been veiled.

“Look! Look up!” someone shouted in surprise.

The puzzled disciples of the Demon Sect immediately looked up into the sky.

They saw not only fog rising from the mountain peaks but even in the high sky above, fog was forming!

This thick fog gathered together, resembling a sword that soared straight into the sky, penetrating the earth and the heavens!

Fog fills the sky, one Sword between Heaven and Earth!
