Chapter 102: Can't afford to play
Lu Xun had some experience points left before, and now with these 16,000 experience points added together, it is almost over 20,000.
After spending 7,000 experience points to reach level 9, Lu Xun hesitated for a few seconds and spent another 8,000 experience points to reach level 10!
Outside the stone gate, the old crocodile was really getting restless this time.
After a trip to the trial ground, he broke through two realms in just a few breaths!
How come for this kid, breaking through the realm is as easy ! ?
"Sir's disciples really can't be compared with ordinary people." Old Crocodile couldn't help but say.
He couldn't help but feel a little envious about this.
The cultivation of the demon race is different from that of humans. It takes a very long time just to awaken their spiritual intelligence and transform into a human form.
If this amount of time were given to a genius of the human race, it would be enough for him to grow.
What's more, many monsters have tried hard to cultivate, but have never been able to transform, and finally... they became the mounts of great practitioners.
There are very few monsters who can cultivate to the level of Crocodile Master, and it is even rarer for a lucky person like Mao Nanbei to be able to worship Master as a teacher.
Inside the stone gate, Lu Xun took a deep breath and felt very refreshed!
The 10th level of the Art of Eating Air, the Great Perfection!
This is Lu Xun's current level cap. If he wants to continue upgrading, it is a bit like the [job change] in the game, but in the Tianchen Continent, it actually requires more advanced skills.
After all, only those above level 10 are called the initial realm, and the practice of the Qi-eating Art is a bit like laying the foundation, which can be regarded as building the foundation.
He didn't want to think about anything now, he just wanted to try his best to break through the third level and complete [Turtle's Longevity]!
He took a step forward and started over from the first level.
He took a step onto the ground, then stomped hard. A ripple spread out in all directions, and 81 swords hidden in the dark flew directly into the air!
The small swords in the sword heart shook, and all of them were knocked away.
It was as if he just glanced at them and they were defeated!
Lu Xun kept moving forward, breaking through the first level in an instant and rushing towards the second level at the fastest speed.
The first level only stopped this real man for three seconds.
Stepping into the second level of the stone forest again, Lu Xun already had experience. In addition, his cultivation had skyrocketed at this moment, so he no longer took it step by step, but rushed forward directly.
The hidden swords around him kept stabbing at him, but none of them could stop him.
Get close, bounce away. Get close, bounce away...
Whether it's one at a time or seven or eight at a time, it's affordable for Lu Xun, who is level 10.
Therefore, every magic sword would be knocked away when it was three meters away from him, and he broke through the second level at the fastest speed as if nothing had happened!
This is the enhanced version of the swordless realm!
The two areas before the third level did not allow Lu Xun to stay for too long.
When the first top-grade magic sword stabbed at him, Lu Xun's mind moved, and it stopped in mid-air three meters away from him.
The magic sword was trembling and stabbing forward with all its strength, but it could not move at all.
Lu Xun snapped his fingers with his right hand, which was covered in his sleeves, and the magic sword flew away as if it could not bear the weight.
Although Lu Xun's strength has increased, the difficulty of the levels will also increase, but it is not calculated that way.
After all, he was practicing the [Sword Training Technique], which could achieve a 300% critical strike effect. Every little improvement he made was equivalent to a large improvement for an ordinary cultivator. The further he progressed, the bigger the gap would become like a snowball!
At this moment, he was full of vigor and vitality, and he was going to make a concerted effort to break through three levels in a row and penetrate [Turtle's Longevity] thoroughly!
Men want to get it done in one step!
In the second area, three magic swords stabbed towards Lu Xun from the left, right, and top, just like before.
The small sword in the sword heart vibrated at a high speed, and the frequency reached its peak.
The offensive power of the three magic swords was gradually weakening. Lu Xun stretched out his right hand, and then struck the sword with his fingertips at an extremely fast speed.
“Snap—Snap—Snap—!”
He slapped his fingers on the sword, directly knocking three top-grade magic swords away!
This is the power of the Swordless Man!
His hands were repelling every sword!
Lu Xun walked leisurely to the third area. Seven magic swords slowly flew into the air and basic information popped up in front of his eyes again.
[Sword Formation: Seven Barbarians, Attack Power +36%, Agility +11%]
Lu Xun: “…”
He could totally accept that each sword became more powerful, but what he didn't expect was that even his sword formation would be improved!
If nothing unexpected happens, this is a "special benefit" that only those who have mastered the Art of Eating Qi can enjoy.
After all, for practitioners, every ten levels is a big bottleneck, and it is extremely difficult to break through. The sword formation is upgraded to put pressure on people, so that practitioners can realize more things under heavy pressure.
Strictly speaking, this is a good intention, but for Lu Xun who is in a hurry to pass the level, this is just a trap!
"Wow! This is going to be a bit tricky!"
Lu Xun's expression became more and more serious , and he felt the pressure.
For some reason, he felt like he was back to those 30 nights when he was severely whipped by the sword intent of the second senior sister.
I miss it for some reason!
At that time, he had this feeling every night, as if he was facing a formidable enemy and he would die if he was not careful!
While neither would actually kill him, the threat of death was very real.
【Seven Barbarian Sword Formation】 is a killing formation.
Its improvement only lies in attack power and speed, and everything else is ignored. This is the so-called killing formation!
This formation is incredibly powerful, but also easy to break. If you can find its weakness, you can defeat it.
It’s a pity that Lu Xun’s current level of authority does not allow him to observe the loopholes in the sword formation, so he can only force his way in and have a head-on confrontation!
The index finger and middle finger of his right hand were put together. The sword energy and sword intent were different from before. They blended with each other, like a stream of air, entwined on Lu Xun's two fingers.
If you look closely at his slender fingers, you can find that there is a hazy air flow surrounding them in a spiral shape. Although it is still like smoke and fog and looks extremely elegant, no one dares to underestimate the power within it!
Previously, Lu Xun was unable to unleash the full power of his sword due to his low level. Now that he has been promoted two levels, the power he can develop has been further improved!
The sword formation started, and Lu Xun's fingertips also moved!
“Squeak!”
His fingertips collided with the first magic sword, and after knocking it down, he rushed directly towards the subsequent magic swords with unstoppable force!
The second one, the third one, the fourth one...
In the blink of an eye, only the main sword in the [Seven Barbarian Sword Formation] was left!
It was different from the other swords. The other swords floated very high and then stabbed towards Lu Xun from great heights, but it was only an inch off the ground and was at the very back, as if it was accumulating strength.
"Swish!" It moved.
For some reason, even though it had no scabbard, it gave Lu Xun the feeling of drawing a sword out of its sheath.
Sword drawing!
Moreover, he sensitively discovered that there was actually a very weak trace of sword intent attached to this sword!
"Damn! Can't you afford to play?!" In a flash, Lu Xun couldn't help but curse in his heart.
No wonder, a character like Xiao Ran, one of the future protagonists, failed to break through the formation, it turns out he had this trick up his sleeve!
For each type, there is a very faint trace of [meaning] on the last magic weapon in the last level!
Who on earth designed this [Turtle’s Longevity]? Does he have to pay out of his own pocket to give out bonuses for clearing the Demon Sect? It shouldn’t be like this!
In his previous life, he had indeed seen many posts related to [Turtle's Longevity], and indeed no player had completed it, but there was a post saying that the last magic weapon also carried [intention]!
But it makes sense. Under normal circumstances, novice players at this stage can't see through these things at all. If Lu Xun didn't have the sword intention himself, he wouldn't be able to see this tiny [intention].
It is a top-grade magic weapon, and it can exert great power because of the copy. Now it also uses the sword-drawing technique and sword intent. Isn't this cheating?!
The airflow in front of Lu Xun's fingertips collided with the magic sword.
The small sword inside the sword's heart is also exerting its power.
The only shortcoming he had at the moment was that he didn't know any advanced sword moves yet, nor did he learn any sword formations. After returning to the Demon Sect and learning the subsequent skills, he would learn more skills.
"Swoosh!" The magic sword pierced the airflow at Lu Xun's fingertips. When it was about to hurt Lu Xun, Lu Xun was wrapped in a white light and teleported out again.
The second attempt to break through failed.
Lu Xun: “***#%**……!”
This is just a novice copy before level 20!
There’s no need, really no need!
What's the point of this hellish difficulty?
Fortunately, he received a system prompt.
[Ding! Due to your outstanding performance, you are currently ranked second in the Gui Sui Shou dungeon ranking list.]
[Deduct the previous duplicate rewards and get 20,000 experience points! ]
In order to prevent someone from deliberately showing weakness at the beginning and then gaining experience points three times by climbing the list three times, the experience point rewards of this kind of ranking list will be deducted from the rewards of the previous few times.
In other words, the second place was originally awarded 30,000 points, but after deducting the 10,000 points awarded to the fourth place, Lu Xun gained 20,000 experience points.
"Surpassed Xiao Ran!" Lu Xun was surprised.
The level could not be increased for the time being, because he needed a new technique, so Lu Xun turned his attention to [Sword Training Technique].
"Hiss, it takes 25,000 experience points to level up. Orange-level skills really require a lot of experience points. After reaching level 5, I probably can't even level up by 1 level without hundreds of thousands of experience points!"
Lu Xun gritted his teeth and used all of his experience, which was just over 25,000.
Orange-level incredible skill, it’s worth upgrading it.
So far, the sword-cultivation technique has reached level 3!
Level 1 has a 200% critical strike effect, and level 3 has a terrifying 400%!
[100% Critical Hit] plus [400% Critical Hit Effect], just ask if you are afraid!
Lu Xun adjusted his mood and started his final challenge.
"I'm going to pierce you this time!" he said viciously in his heart.
Outside the stone gate, Old Crocodile felt that Lu Xun was a little impatient. He thought that Lu Xun should sit down and reflect carefully, digest what he had just gained and felt in the third level, and improve himself.
There is no point in forcing your way in again now.
"You are still too young and full of youthful vigor."
However, when Lu Xun rushed to the third level of the sword formation again, Old Crocodile immediately felt the changes in him!
The airflow is still lingering on the fingertips, but it is more sharp!
"Monster! This kid is definitely a monster!"
In the sword formation, Lu Xun broke through 6 swords in a row and faced the last magic sword again.
“Break it for me!!!”
He thrust his finger sword forward, forcing the magic sword back.
Lu Xun kept moving forward, and the magic sword kept moving backward, and finally, it knocked it away!
The magic sword fell to the ground and inserted into the ground.
There was an obvious crack on the sword.
It cracked.
