Chapter 158
"Sure enough...sir is not an ordinary Jindan Perfection."
Ling Shuangxue looked at Luo Wusheng with an increasingly strange look in her eyes: "...Sir, you guessed it right. I came to Jianyang City for a heaven-level sword ghost."
Luo Wusheng's expression did not change, because this answer was the same as his guess.
The fact that the fairy opposite him directly admitted that his target was a Heavenly Sword Demon really made him feel a little surprised.
As his mind was spinning, his eyes flashed.
"The fairy needs my help to conquer the sword ghost..."
Having said this, he frowned slightly: "The cultivation level of the Heavenly Level Sword Ghost is roughly comparable to that of an early Yuanying monk. Although facing a sword cultivator as an opponent, he can show even greater power, but with the cultivation level of a fairy, It should be more than enough to deal with alone... Is the fairy in a different state? "
"Um."
Ling Shuangxue suppressed the surprise in her heart and nodded slightly: "I suffered some injuries on the way to Jianyang City. Now it may be okay if I just deal with the sword ghost, but..."
"...The oriole is behind."
Luo Wusheng uttered four words in his mouth, but he already had a general understanding of the situation.
Based on the information that the strong man revealed intentionally or unintentionally today, he sorted out the general outline of the matter after making a few connections.
Ling Shuangxue, who was opposite, poured Luo Wusheng another cup of sword-raising tea and pushed it to his table.
"Now the sword ghost is in Jianyang Mountain outside Jianyang City. Several teams led by the early Nascent Soul have already surrounded Jianyang Mountain. However, they are quite worried about the [collapsing sword soul] of the heaven-level sword ghost. The teams are on guard against each other, and no one has taken action yet.”
"...What you just said is correct. I really want to ask for your help."
"As for the reward..."
Ling Shuangxue closed her eyes lightly, but patted the storage bag on her waist.
A simple sword-patterned small box fell on the table.
Section 1 # Volume 1 # Chapter 235 I like the story of Mr.... very much
Ling Shuangxue tapped her fingers lightly, and the small sword-patterned box opened slightly, revealing the contents inside.
It was a small incense stick printed with mysterious lines, and it vaguely exuded a strange smell.
"...Wu Jianxiang."
Ling Shuangxue's voice sounded softly: "This is something that Jiange obtained from the secret realm of the ancient Heavenly Sword Department in the past. After burning the incense, you can follow the mystery and let your spiritual consciousness be in an illusion of sword enlightenment. Once the incense is burned, It will be like ten years of mastering the sword."
She only explained the function of the things in her hands, but did not mention their preciousness.
This Sword Enlightenment Incense was obtained from the sect's reward after she was promoted to the middle stage of Nascent Soul.
Even in the sword pavilion, the number of sword enlightenment incense held is extremely limited... Ordinary sword pavilion disciples who are promoted to Nascent Soul and become the leader of a peak can only get half of it.
And the half of it she had obtained in the past had already been used when she became the leader of Frost Snow Peak.
After all, she was still devoted to the art of swordsmanship at that time, so naturally she would not let go of this opportunity to learn swordsmanship.
But this time when she was promoted to the middle stage of Nascent Soul and got a whole stick of Sword Enlightenment Incense, she had no idea of using it anymore.
Because her path is different from the one she used to focus on mastering the sword. If she only stayed with the sword for ten years in the illusion, it would be contrary to her current swordsmanship.
As for handing it over to her disciples... Ling Shuangxue originally planned to do so. She would only wait for her disciples to return from the competition for the Human Immortal Ranking, then give it as a reward, and then personally protect him and learn the sword.
But now she has changed her mind.
(Compared to Wu Jianxiang, Heavenly Sword Demon is more important to Yuli today, and...)
Ling Shuangxue's eyes reflected the appearance of the young man opposite, with a softness like water hidden in them.
If that matter could be confirmed, even if it was just a piece of sword-enlightenment incense given to the young gentleman in front of me, I wouldn't be half-hearted, right?
On the other side, Luo Wusheng's eyes showed surprise after hearing the explanation.
Coincidentally, he really knew about Wu Jianxiang.
In the original work, before Miss Sword Fairy went to the ancient heaven, she got such a sword-enlightening incense from the iceberg beauty master who had been conquered by her...
Thinking of the effect described in the original work and the preciousness of this object, Luo Wusheng looked at the woman opposite, his heart pounding.
Isn't this too much to give up? The value of this Sword Enlightenment Incense, in some cases, is close to that of a heaven-level sword ghost that appears only once every few years... In the original work, Xiao Yuli relied on her swordsmanship talent to abruptly transform from ten to ten sword demons. Nian realizes that the sword intention in the sword is perfect, so that he can practice the secret method of sword elixir that no one has practiced in the sword pavilion for countless years.
And now there is such a stick in front of me...
To be honest, Luo Wusheng really had no reason not to be moved.
If you get this Sword Enlightenment Incense, it will be of great benefit whether you use it yourself or give it to Miss Sword Immortal.
Giving it to Xiao Yuli can fulfill his plan of speeding up the little girl's entry into the country again... plus what her master has given her, a total of twenty years of sword mastery may be able to increase the little girl's upgrade speed.
Well, although the goal of approaching immortality in one year is still a bit far away.
And if you use it yourself...
Luo Wusheng's eyes flashed, but he made himself look away and slowly drank the sword-raising tea in front of his desk.
"The fairy did offer me a reward that I can't refuse...but I would like to know more about this matter."
…………
In the short period of time that followed, Luo Wusheng learned the details of the sword ghost hunting incident from Ling Shuangxue.
The exact time when this Heaven-level Sword Ghost appeared is unknown, and it is not clear who discovered it first, so that the teams that are now besieging this Sword Ghost have all received the news.
After a tentative fight among several teams, the Sword Ghost entered the territory of Jianyang Mountain outside Jianyang City.
Jianyang Mountain has a special terrain, with many strange stones and spiritual plants. In addition, sword cultivators lack large-scale spells. A group of people are worried that too much noise will cause variables, and they are even more unwilling to exhaust their spiritual power to force the Sword Ghost out for others. Therefore, if they want to take the Sword Ghost into their pockets, they need to enter Jianyang Mountain.
But there is another problem here.
The Heaven-level Sword Ghost, which can only appear once in many years, has a new skill compared to the human-level and earth-level.
Collapse of Sword Soul.
This is the Heaven-level Sword Ghost's real full-strength attack. After this attack, it will be at the mercy of others... But this attack is also the reason why the teams that are besieging the Sword Ghost are reluctant to take action.
The Sword Soul Collapses, the Sword Heart Falls, and the Sword Will is Chaotic.
If a sword cultivator faces this attack directly, even a mid-stage Yuanying sword cultivator will be injured. The sword heart of an ordinary Yuanying sword cultivator will be cracked. The higher the sword intent, the greater the impact will be. In the end, the sword intent will be confused and backfire.
Even if a mid-stage Yuanying cultivator is in good condition, he will have to recuperate after taking this attack.
Especially since this is a range attack with a lot of noise... It can be said that if you are not prepared or do not have enough strength to suppress it, with multiple teams watching, it is almost 100% certain that someone will take advantage of you.
Luo Wusheng understood everything.
These are the reasons why the injured Sword Pavilion Fairy in front of him wants to find someone to form a team.
"But... why me?"
Luo Wusheng looked across and met the eyes above Ling Shuangxue's veil.
This should be the first time he met the woman in front of him today. Even if the other party is really looking for someone with enough strength, isn't it too hasty to find someone who has never met him?
Although he did have a good-looking appearance and seemed very reliable, it was a bit too much to trust him just like that...
"Because I like your story... very much."
Luo Wusheng was slightly stunned.
The Sword Pavilion Fairy opposite him gave a sincere answer that seemed to come from the heart, which surprised him a little, but he soon thought of something.
(It turns out that telling stories can increase your favorability so much...)
There was something strange in his eyes.
He had felt that this girl was not as good to him as when they first met...She had taken the initiative to drive away the troublemaker in the teahouse before, and now she was not sorry to refill the expensive sword-nourishing tea for him one cup after another.
It should not be so if she was just looking for a collaborator.
Besides that, the only contact between him and the other party was the story he told today.
Luo Wusheng sighed in his heart.
So, when traveling in the world, it is different if you have more skills to make a living.
(But I always feel that the stories I made up have a good effect on the people of Jianzhou. They are popular in Jianyang City. Telling them to Xiao Yuli can also increase her favorability. Now this beautiful fairy from Jian Ge seems to be quite fond of this...)
Thinking about it, if I meet Xiao Yuli's master in the future, why not try to tell a few stories to improve her favorability?
Well, I'd better think about it again.
Based on the character of the iceberg beauty master in the original work, it is a difficult problem to get the other party to listen to my story...I guess only Xiao Yuli can tell the story in person, so that the master can listen to it, right?
No longer thinking about these, Luo Wusheng smiled.
"Thank you for your kindness, fairy...In this case, I will lend a helping hand this time."
Section 1 # Volume 1 # Chapter 236 I want to listen to the story told by the master (second update)
Luo Wusheng agreed after a lot of consideration.
The first and most important point is...he is very free now.
The short-term goal is to collect all the saintly points in front of others and add a powerful card to himself.
It sounds like a difficult task, but it's a pity that when he really showed it, he became a storyteller in a teahouse.
As he thought before, if he wanted to quickly collect enough points to show his full power in front of others, he had to choose to participate in some eye-catching events.
Just like when he passed the tribulation and live-broadcasted the killing of rat demons in the spotlight in the past...
It's a pity that he didn't get the storage function of the points of showing his power in front of others on the night of the demon extermination, otherwise the picture of himself turning into light twice that day would be enough to fill up the unparalleled progress bar of the Wuxiang magic weapon again.
And now, a new storm has appeared.
The incident of the sword ghost of the heavenly tribulation... What a good opportunity to gain the points of showing his power in front of others.
It's a pity that exposing the matter will increase the difficulty of success. Now there are only a few teams outside Jianyang Mountain. Even if he shows his power perfectly once, the points of showing his power in front of others should be limited...
However, when he really starts hunting the sword ghost, the noise he makes should attract nearby monks, so there is still hope that his points of showing his power in front of others will skyrocket.
As long as he does this, no matter what the outcome is, he will not lose out.
Moreover...
Looking at the beautiful fairy who was slightly happy in her eyes because of his nod, Luo Wusheng nodded secretly.
Apart from anything else, it would be good to have a good relationship with this wealthy fairy from the Sword Pavilion who has a high level of cultivation.
Judging from the generosity of this move, he might be able to trade a lot of high-level resources needed by sword cultivators from her... In this way, his Xiao Yuli training plan can be launched normally.
(But I am still a little curious about her true identity in the Sword Pavilion... Most of the Yuanying masters in the Sword Pavilion are from the generation of Xiao Yuli's uncles, right? There are quite a few sword peak masters in the Sword Pavilion, and it is hard to say what kind of relationship she has with Xiao Yuli's peak...)
The relationship should not be bad, but judging from her personality, she does not seem to have any dealings with the iceberg beauty master.
There is no corresponding description in the original work, and it is estimated that she is a master who is not familiar with Miss Jianxian and her master and apprentice.
However, judging from the current performance of this beautiful fairy, she should have good intentions towards me.
Thanks to her excellent literary literacy.
Luo Wusheng was still sighing in his heart, and Ling Shuangxue on the opposite side had already stabilized her emotions after gently pulling up a little veil and drinking a sip of tea.
"Then... without further ado, about the strategy that the master and I should adopt at that time..."
…………
Luo Wusheng and Ling Shuangxue talked for quite a while.
When the teahouse was about to close, they simply paid a small amount of spirit stones and decided to borrow the teahouse for a night.
After all, both of them just arrived in Jianyang City today, and they had not decided where to stay at night. With their cultivation, they did not need to sleep... Luo Wusheng was reluctant to drink the sword-nourishing tea, and Ling Shuangxue also had some ideas of her own, so the two of them hit it off and decided on the plan.
The borrowing process was very smooth, and there were no problems except that the shopkeeper's eyes were a little strange.
Finally, the two of them discussed until nightfall, and finally finalized the plan for their temporary team to hunt sword ghosts.
The implementation time was set directly for tomorrow.
The main purpose was to avoid more trouble. Now there is no middle-stage Nascent Soul in the team preparing to hunt sword ghosts. They still have an advantage, but it may not be the case if time drags on.
I believe other teams also have this idea, but no one is willing to be the first to do it.
