Chapter 956: Intercepting Fish
“Junior Brother Lu is so humble.”
Mo Yuanfeng smiled slightly.
“Whether you can obtain various kendo treasures in Heart Sword Lake mainly depends on two aspects.”
“The first is the realm of cultivation, the second is the level of swordsmanship, and other aspects depend on the talents and methods of different disciples.”
“Some inner disciples have innate sword bodies and have an extremely terrifying affinity for swordsmanship. After entering the Heart Sword Lake, they will naturally become like a fish in water.”
“Thank you, senior brother, for informing me. I understand now.”
Lu Xuan nodded slightly.
His ability to enter the Heart Sword Lake, in addition to being highly regarded by the master of the Huanzhen Sword, is inseparable from his later stage of Dan Formation.
As for the level of swordsmanship, after cultivating a lot of sword grass and absorbing a lot of sword intention experience packs, he felt that he was not inferior to most sword sect disciples.
“By the way, Junior Brother Lu, I will give you the hilt of the Heart Lake Sword.”
Mo Yuanfeng took out a dark green sword hilt and handed it to Lu Xuan.
There seemed to be heavy ripples in the dark green lake water on the surface of the sword hilt. There was no blade, but there was an invisible sword energy that was constantly puffing out.
“The hilt of the Heart Lake Sword has several uses. Junior Brother can use it to enter the Heart Sword Lake.”
“After entering, you can also guide the direction to avoid getting lost in the endless lake of sword energy.”
“In addition, although there is not much danger in the Heart Sword Lake, we cannot guarantee absolute safety. After all, some sword-type spirits or sword souls inside are still somewhat aggressive.”
“Between disciples, if they have a common goal of treasure, there will inevitably be some friction.”
“When junior brother you encounter a dangerous situation, you can use all your strength to activate the special sword energy in the hilt of the Heart Lake Sword, and your senior uncle will come to help you.”
"Of course, there is only one chance. After the sword energy is activated, the hilt becomes a mortal object, and you can no longer search for and collect kendo treasures in the Heart Sword Lake."
Mo Yuanfeng explained patiently.
Following that, he took the trouble to tell Lu Xuan some precautions when entering Xinjian Lake, some tips on searching for treasures, etc.
Finally, with Lu Xuan's constant gratitude, he said goodbye and left.
Time passed and the day of entering Xinjian Lake came in a blink of an eye.
Lu Xuan and the other six inner disciples of Huanzhen Sword Peak came to the gathering place together.
While waiting, he took the opportunity to get to know six people.
The six of them already knew Lu Xuan’s origins, and their attitudes were very friendly.
More and more Sword Sect disciples came to the gathering place, and soon there were about a hundred people.
“It’s true that there are only seven people in Jianfeng, and the largest Jianfeng has more than twenty. It seems that the gap between Jianfeng and Jianfeng is not small.”
Lu Xuan sighed secretly.
The disciples on each Sword Peak wear slightly different standard robes and can be easily identified.
Not long after he looked around, a sword light came like thunder, and the figure of a Nascent Soul sword cultivator was revealed.
“Congratulations on your qualifications to enter the Heart Sword Lake. I wish you all get the treasures you want.”
The Yuan Ying sword cultivator said with a stern expression.
Then, he slashed down with one hand, and a huge crack appeared in the ground. A powerful restriction was placed around the crack, and countless sword energy could be vaguely seen inside trying to break through the restriction.
“The location we entered this time is said to be deep in the Heart Sword Lake.”
Lu Xuan thought secretly in his heart.
In his cave, there is a special passage into Xinjian Lake, but it can only enter the outermost area. It is difficult to enter the central area without the permission of the Sword Sect.
“Just jump in.”
More than a hundred Sword Sect disciples jumped into the crack without hesitation.
Lu Xuan is naturally among them. Wow~
There was a very strange sound of running water in his ears. Lu Xuan opened his eyes and looked around curiously.
There was green lake water surrounding him in all directions. The originally soft water flow now gave him a sharp feeling, and his skin felt a slight tingling.
Lu Xuan circulated his spiritual power, and all his bones turned into a light golden color, expelling the all-pervasive subtle sword energy.
"Is this the Heart Sword Lake? Is the surrounding water filled with sword spirit liquid?"
He thought to himself.
Immediately, I activated the Water Escape Technique, but unfortunately, the speed was much slower than normal.
Thoughts flashed in Lu Xuan's mind, and he activated the sword technique again. Suddenly, the water around him seemed to explode, becoming more active in an instant.
“There are countless sword energy and sword intentions in the lake. Unfortunately, the quality can only be considered average, roughly equivalent to second-grade spiritual liquid. However, the Heart Sword Lake is so big, it is quite terrifying if all of it is second-grade spiritual liquid.”
He filled a few bottles of ordinary sword spirit liquid and decided to collect them carefully.
“It stands to reason that Xinjian Lake is the supreme treasure of the Dongxuan Sword Sect, and the sword energy and spirit liquid in it must be of higher quality. We just need to find a method.”
Lu Xuan swam slowly in the lake, using the guidance of the hilt of the Heart Lake sword to swim deeper.
“There seems to be something wrong with the flow of this body of water.”
He stopped, and a deep star in the depths of the sea of consciousness emitted a dim spiritual light, and his spiritual consciousness spread rapidly.
“Sure enough, there is another mystery.”
Lu Xuan was overjoyed. With the help of his keen spiritual sense, he discovered an extremely obscure undercurrent of sword spirit fluid in the lake.
With a thought in his mind, hundreds of invisible sword energies swam toward the undercurrent at high speed.
The spectroscopic shadow-escape sword energy, which was already known for its secrecy, was even more concealed at this moment, quietly intercepting the undercurrent.
The sword energy shuttled back and forth quickly, weaving into a large invisible sword energy net. The undercurrent inside was rushing through, but it was a pity that no one could break away from the net.
The big net slowly closed, and finally, a ball of dark green spiritual liquid appeared in the net.
Lu Xuan’s spiritual sense penetrated into the spiritual liquid, and countless subtle sword energy rushed towards his face. Compared with the ordinary sword energy spiritual liquid, it was more than ten times richer.
“It turns out that I have to collect high-quality sword spirit liquid myself.”
He was overjoyed, put the dark green spiritual liquid into a vase, and sealed it with a talisman.
After discovering the existence of the undercurrent, he was not in a hurry to go deep into the center of Xinjian Lake.
For him, this high-quality sword energy liquid is not inferior to some sword treasures, and it is most suitable for cultivating sword grass spiritual plants.
Next, with his keen spiritual awareness far exceeding that of monks of the same level, he once again discovered several undercurrents at the bottom of the lake and collected them one by one.
“Huh? What?”
While he was searching for the undercurrent of sword energy, he suddenly noticed a strange existence a hundred feet away coming towards him quickly.
“The aura is equivalent to that of a monk in the early stage of elixir formation.”
After sensing the opponent's aura, he felt relieved, his palms turned into light gold, and he grabbed the slender strange fish.
The shape of the strange fish is very strange, its whole body is dark black, and it seems to be made of a slender black rope wrapped around and braided.
After Lu Xuan caught it, his body disintegrated on its own, forming a black line in an instant. The black line shook wildly, and wisps of subtle sword energy rushed towards Lu Xuan.
“Still want to escape.”
Lu Xuan naturally wouldn't let it go. His palms turned into afterimages and he grabbed the black-lined monster fish again.
“This is what Senior Brother Mo calls the spike fish. The spikes on some flying sword magic weapons have been in the Heart Sword Lake for many years, and gradually gained a bit of spirituality, forming this special spirit.”
Thinking in his mind, he sent out a drop of sword energy liquid and seeped into the black line.
