Chapter 118: Another Way Out
If it were in modern times, what Lu Xun did would be like suddenly jumping in front of the gentleman and shouting: "Surprise!"
But whether it was a surprise or a shock, it’s hard to say.
Zhuge Lai Fu, who was following behind the gentleman, noticed the gentleman's surprise, and the next moment, he seemed to have sensed something as well.
"Junior brother, has... made a breakthrough?!" Zhuge Lai Fu felt unbelievable.
Although for those in the back mountain, the initial stage of cultivation was not difficult, but for Lu Xun it was a bit too simple.
Moreover, due to the particularity of the technique he was practicing, his practice speed should have been slower.
But after being surprised, Zhuge Laifu showed a simple smile on his face. He was really happy for Lu Xun and said, "I didn't expect that my junior brother is such a genius!"
But the gentleman kept looking in the direction of the cave and didn't say anything.
He frowned at first, then slowly relaxed his brows, with a complicated expression on his face.
"Sir, do you have any thoughts?" Zhuge Lai Fu asked.
The gentleman raised his right hand with his fingers curled up, waved his hand slightly and said, "Forget it."
Zhuge Lai Fu was delighted when he heard this.
He knew that the master didn't like men who were too good-looking, and the main reason why he could serve the master was because... he was ugly.
In fact, the second sister also vaguely sensed the master's temper.
Only the little loli Maonanbei was heartless. She really didn't feel it at all. All she did every day was eat, drink and have fun. When she was tired, she would lie on the rattan chair and lazily bask in the sun.
Therefore, Zhuge Laifu was happy for Lu Xun at the moment. At the same time, he was also wondering why the master suddenly changed, so he asked: "Sir, what do you see in my junior brother?"
The teacher knew that his three disciples not only had endless innovative spirit, but also endless thirst for knowledge.
He smiled gently and said, "He is different from all of you."
"What's the difference?" Zhuge Lai Fu was confused, but since the teacher had no intention of continuing, he did not ask more questions.
He thought to himself: "Should I capture my junior brother and study him tomorrow?"
“By the way, it seems that little junior brother is very special. He didn’t die even when he jumped off the cliff with his mortal body! In that case…” The third senior brother showed an honest smile on his face.
…
…
Halfway up the mountain, the upgraded Lu Xun slowly opened his eyes.
“These 50,000 experience points are worth it!” Lu Xun said in his heart.
His current character level is already 11, and he has officially entered the initial stage!
When he played "Tianchen" in his previous life, he took a lot of detours because he didn't know much about the game at the beginning. It took him a long time to reach level 11, and he was definitely not as strong as he is now!
You may not believe it, but the current me can easily kill ten of my previous life’s same stage!
I'll hit ten!
Hmm... using your past life self as the unit of measurement seems like a good choice.
Now, if he appeared in front of the public beta players, even without the cover-up of his purple-level identity, the players would not be able to find out his basic information.
Level 10 is a huge leap, being ten levels higher than the player, the basic information that the player can obtain will be much less.
Lu Xun sat cross-legged and carefully felt the spiritual power in his body. His total spiritual power was 5 times that of a player who practiced yellow-level skills!
Even compared with players who practice purple-level techniques, it is nearly twice as much!
Although the experience points paid are horrible, the rewards are also amazing!
Lu Xun couldn't help but start thinking, how vast is the total amount of spiritual power of the senior who also practiced the nameless technique mentioned by the gentleman?
He carefully observed his body and found that the five spiritual powers were like five rivers. They did not merge together but were separated and distinct.
The five elements are mutually reinforcing and restraining, and Lu Xun only needs a thought to merge them together again.
He put his index finger and middle finger together, and then cast a fingertip sword energy. Now he can cast any of the five elements at will, and at the same time, he can combine them together.
The fusion of the five elements does not mean that it has no attributes, but rather has a feeling of endless vitality.
As he thought about it, the power of the Five Elements surged directly, and the sword energy at his fingertips became thicker and bigger in an instant!
"That's great!" Lu Xun was having a lot of fun.
He feels that this model, which can be large or small, is very good.
In addition to being used to ambush people, it has many other wonderful uses.
The most important thing is... he can now control objects and fly!
It’s a pity that he hasn’t learned the art of flying yet, and he is trapped here, so there seems to be no need to fly.
If Lu Xun wanted to, he could just jump hard and hit his head on top of the mountain. What was the point of flying?
Now, what Lu Xun wants to try most is the power of each sword energy at that moment!
In the past, he could ask Mao Nanbei to be his sparring partner. After the practice, he only needed to give her something to eat or make her a small dessert like pudding.
But Mao Nanbei was not around after all, so he had to find someone else to practice with.
Soon, his eyes were fixed on the barrier at the entrance of the cave!
The other people had marks left by the third senior brother on their bodies. Those with the marks could enter and exit the barrier freely, but Lu Xun could not.
This formation barrier set up by the third senior brother was an estimate of Lu Xun's strength. Before Lu Xun's cultivation level broke through and the ancient five elements formation was accomplished, the barrier could not be broken.
So, isn’t this barrier the best sandbag?
Since he had nothing to do anyway, the energetic Lu Xun stopped sitting cross-legged and walked quickly to the cave entrance, unleashing one sword energy after another.
“Puff!”
“Puff!”
“Puff!”
Every time a sword energy stabbed at the barrier, the barrier remained unharmed.
Translucent ripples appeared in the air, as if the barrier rippled slightly and released the power contained in the sword energy.
What’s interesting is that the stronger the sword energy Lu Xun throws out, the greater the feedback from the barrier, and the more obvious the ripples become.
"That's great!" Lu Xun couldn't help but praise him, thinking that this was a very good sparring partner.
He no longer held back, and transformed all of the spiritual power in his body into sword energy, continuously blasting it outwards!
You know what, the scene of sword energy pouring down one after another is quite spectacular!
“By the way, let’s add the sword intent as well and see what the effect will be when I strike with all my strength!” Lu Xun said in his heart.
The sword intent was entangled with the sword energy, still hovering on Lu Xun's fingers like mist. Although it was hazy, it was much thicker than before.
If it was thin mist when the Art of Eating Breath was fully accomplished, it is thick fog now.
Lu Xun raised his finger and poked at the barrier.
After a puff, Lu Xun was stunned.
He hooked his finger in the air, his face full of surprise.
"Poke...pierced it!?" He was stunned.
