Chapter 104 The Unknown
"Three breaths?" Lu Xun couldn't help but be stunned after hearing what Old Crocodile said.
Under normal circumstances, a person breathes 16 to 20 times per minute, which means that the second sister only took about 10 seconds to break through three levels in succession.
How did she do it!?
As if he had seen through Lu Xun's confusion, Old Crocodile chuckled, his laughter was unpleasant to the ear, and he opened his long crocodile mouth and said:
"Boy, are you curious about how your second senior sister broke through in such a short time?"
Lu Xun nodded.
Crocodile didn't answer directly, but asked: "You broke the main sword in the third level, right?"
Lu Xun's expression changed slightly, and he laughed, feeling a little embarrassed.
That main sword looks fierce, but who knows it's so fragile.
"I won't ask you to pay for it. The creator of [Turtle's Longevity] is not only a master of formations, but also a master of refining equipment. There is no shortage of magical instruments here, and there are still many spare ones in the warehouse." said Old Crocodile.
After he finished speaking, he looked at Lu Xun and smiled again, a particularly ugly smile, and said: "Besides, compared with your second senior sister, your little destruction is nothing."
"Mr. Crocodile, what do you mean..." Lu Xun asked.
"The three checkpoints you see now were repaired later." Crocodile said, "Your second sister swung the sword three times, and after three swords, these three checkpoints are no longer usable."
Hearing this, the corners of Lu Xun's mouth twitched involuntarily.
Could this be the legendary "True Breakthrough"!?
However, he soon discovered something wrong. As Old Crocodile said, Second Senior Sister did swing the sword three times. But according to the rules, isn't it forbidden to bring one's own magic weapon into [ Turtle's Longevity]?
He told his doubts to Crocodile Master, who looked at him with complicated eyes and said, "Didn't you notice that the first step of these three levels is to stab you with a sword first?"
Crocodile continued, "Usually, challengers would pick up this sword and use it, but... you didn't."
Hearing this, Lu Xun laughed again.
…
…
After chatting with Old Crocodile for a while, Lu Xun took Ji Li away from [Turtle's Longevity].
The exit and the entrance are the same, which is the dry well.
When you come in, you have to jump into the well, and when you go out, you have to jump out from the bottom of the well.
Fortunately, this alley is dilapidated. There is no one here, let alone a wild cat. Otherwise, people might be scared and think they have encountered a monster at the bottom of a well.
If there are a lot of people around, Ji Li will follow Lu Xun obediently, because of the difference in their status, she has to do so.
When the two of them were alone, she would muster up the courage to walk faster, only half a body slower than Lu Xun.
In her heart, she wanted to walk side by side, and it would be best if she could get her body close to him , but she was not thick-skinned enough for that yet, nor was she brave enough. She was still at the stage where she had the desire but not the courage to do it.
If Yan Bao were here, she would definitely teach her: "You can only take maternity leave if you are brave enough!"
Maybe this is why she, as a player, can hook up with an NPC , and a female NPC at that. I don’t even know why she wants to take maternity leave.
When we returned to Lai Fu Restaurant, it was already dark.
The fat and silly Murong Yan is dancing with a sword under the moon.
Her qualifications are not outstanding among the Demon Sect, but she is diligent.
Don't be fooled by her fat appearance, she is really practicing hard.
The little mute Lin Chan was sitting on the steps, with his two thin legs together, his arms resting on his knees, and his palms supporting his little cheeks.
She was watching Murong Yan practice sword skills. With her natural aptitude for sword skills, she could remember the moves after watching them once.
Unfortunately, sword moves are not just about memorizing the movements. Merely having the form will not achieve the desired effect. When using sword moves, the key is how to circulate the spiritual energy in the body.
When Lin Chan saw the beautiful master coming back, he quickly stood up and went to greet her.
She was a polite child, and she certainly couldn't sit while her master was standing.
"Did you practice well today?" Lu Xun rubbed her head and asked.
Ji Li on the side was so envious, she also wanted to be rubbed.
Lin Chan nodded gently. She was very addicted to cultivation because it could alleviate her strange illness. Not only could she sleep well, she felt much more energetic.
Seeing that the little mute seemed to want to express something, Lu Xun smiled and stretched out his hand.
Lin Chan's fingertips wrote on his palm, asking the master if he wanted to eat.
"Okay, go tell the kitchen staff." Lu Xun said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Lin Chan trotted towards the kitchen.
Ji Li was very annoyed at the moment, annoyed that she was not a mute, otherwise, she could also write on Lu Xun's palm, which, rounding it off, was almost the same as holding hands!
It’s sour!
Do you want to make yourself mute?
After having a simple meal with Ji Li, Lu Xun said to everyone, "Let's set off back to the clan tomorrow ."
Now the internal test has been completed and the dungeon has been cleared. The only thing that has not been done is the wanted order in Three Thousand Mountains, but there is no rush for that.
What he is more anxious about now is to return to the Demon Sect to learn new skills!
Lu Xun currently has over 20,000 experience points, but his level cannot be raised, which is really troublesome.
Moreover, after entering the initial realm, you can fly by flying objects. Whether riding on a scabbard or making a special flying magic weapon, it is a good choice.
It’s a pity that among the four of them, only Murong Yan can fly, and her poor Hongmao Sword is already struggling hard to carry its master. If the three of them were added, it would probably commit suicide on the spot and break apart for everyone to see.
Therefore, in order to return to the Demon Sect, one needs to get a carriage and travel slowly. It is estimated that the journey will take several days.
The next day, Ji Li and Murong Yan went to get a carriage which was not luxurious but definitely comfortable, and the group prepared to return to the sect.
Lin Chan was born and raised in Qingling City. She had only left Qingling City a few times in her life. Suddenly she had to leave her hometown, and she couldn't help but look outside through the window of the carriage.
With her current personality , she was even a little nervous and scared about going to a strange place.
Fortunately, the master beside her gave her a great sense of security. She felt a lot more at ease when she was with Lu Xun.
The words Lu Xun said to her before he left still made her feel warm in her heart.
What Lu Xun said to her was: "Let's go, follow me home."
…
…
Along the way, Murong Yan basically acted as the driver.
Ji Li had just come out of [The Turtle's Longevity] and needed to calm down and digest what she had learned, and to carefully reflect on what she had gained from the challenge. So she had been staying in the carriage, in a semi-secluded state.
Lin Chan was also practicing seriously, firstly because she didn't want to disappoint her master, and secondly because it was good for her health. For her, it actually made her less eager to become stronger.
On the contrary, Lu Xun would browse the forum when he had nothing to do to read the comments of the stupid players.
After all, he can no longer gain experience points by practicing "The Art of Eating Air".
Although the internal beta has ended and there is still some time before the public beta, the forum is still lively, with a large number of netizens posting here every day, and they post all kinds of things to attract attention.
Can you believe that Lu Xun now relies on this forum to read online novels?
This stupid OP writes very slowly, and each chapter is very short, and he often breaks chapters. Lu Xun sometimes thinks that if he knew his game ID, he would kill him every time he sees him, until he is offline!
Go write a novel! It's not good enough, okay?
What is more surprising is that both Lin Chan and Ji Li made breakthroughs.
It is good to have a high level of comprehension, and by meditating and practicing every day, you can also advance quickly.
Lu Xun was not envious, after all, he was used to completing tasks to level up, and practicing was just to enjoy the process. But Murong Yan really envied them.
She is different from Ji Li and Lin Chan. She only has three ripples, which means her comprehension is 3.
In the Demon Sect, such aptitude is very inconspicuous, and there are many people with a comprehension level of 5 or above. If Murong Yan had not had a fortuitous encounter, his current cultivation level would probably be even lower.
Of course, she was more happy for them.
But to be honest, no matter how envious she is, Murong Yan is still content.
Thousands of years ago, she didn't even have the qualifications to practice.
Thousands of years ago, One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain had not yet split, and it was still called Sword Mountain. In that era, the threshold for practitioners was relatively high, and one needed to have five ripples before practicing, otherwise one could not sense spiritual energy.
In other words, people like Murong Yan are considered to have no fate with becoming an immortal.
It was not until later that a great practitioner improved some of the mainstream basic exercises of the time.
With his improvements, even people with lower qualifications can sense the existence of spiritual energy!
This is equivalent to lowering the threshold for practice and giving more people the opportunity to practice.
And these mainstream basic skills that he improved have been passed down to this day.
However, for some unknown reason, the name of this great practitioner has not been passed down.
