This Sword Cultivator is Somewhat Dependable-Chapter 643 - 2: Peach Blossom Promotion

Chapter 643 -2: Peach Blossom Promotion

In the ruins formed by the collapse of the wooden tower,

Lu Qingshan stood opposite the Rat King, a man and a rat staring each other down.

“You’re saying you did this?” The Rat King’s eyes widened in disbelief as it asked, “Everything was fine, why did you demolish the place?!”

“It was an accident,” Lu Qingshan thought for a moment and apologized, “I just broke through to Void Refining and couldn’t control my own strength for a moment.”

The awkward situation arose just as he described. The power of his Pupil Skill had suddenly surged, and before he could fully grasp it, the robust divine power of the skill uncontrollably overflowed from his pupils.

“There’s no excuse for demolishing a house!” The Rat King seized the opportunity to lecture Lu Qingshan, but right after speaking, its tiny head suddenly realized what Lu Qingshan had just mentioned.

“What? You’ve reached Void Refining?” The Mouse Demon reacted as if it were being roasted on a hot pan, jumping up and down uncontrollably.

“Just broke through,” Lu Qingshan nodded.

Shocked by Lu Qingshan’s confirmation, the Rat King stood petrified as if struck by lightning.

Unbelievable!

In an effort to keep up with Lu Qingshan’s cultivation progress, even knowing that Lu Qingshan was to leave the sect, it suppressed the restlessness in its heart, the desire to wander, and stayed at Sword Coming Peak to diligently practice the Cultivation Technique.

I was so disciplined, yet my realm is still stuck at Third Grade, whereas Lu Qingshan wanders off for a month, and upon his return, he has advanced from Nascent Soul to Void Refining?

Gazing at Lu Qingshan’s gentle yet somewhat dazzling smile, the Mouse Demon’s eyes glazed over with a wooden expression, a faint trace of bitter self-mockery flickered at the corner of its mouth. Its paw clenched into a tight little fist, the somewhat sharp claws unintentionally piercing into the palm due to the force.

“It’s not me who’s wrong, it’s the world!”

It turned away dejectedly, quietly found a corner to sit down, its lonely figure out of sync with the surrounding world.

“No, thirty years… might be a bit too short, might not last… Sixty years of prosperity here, sixty years of hardship there,” the stalwart Rat King quickly adjusted its attitude and mused to itself, “Don’t bully a poor Rat Demon!”

Lu Qingshan wasn’t going to concern himself with the Mouse Demon’s rich inner world. Instead, he looked somewhat troubled at the collapsed wooden tower before him, now reduced to ruins.

For Sword Cultivators, causing destruction is easy.

But asking them to reconstruct what they’ve destroyed is a bit more challenging.

After pondering for a moment right there, Lu Qingshan decided to abandon that idea.

Having him wield his sword to carve out a cave dwelling was still manageable, but asking him to rebuild a wooden tower?

It’s important to know one’s limitations as a human being.

Thus, Lu Qingshan turned his gaze toward another wooden tower nearby.

Atop Sword Coming Peak, there were originally three wooden towers in total.

One was Xia Daoyun’s dwelling, one was Lu Qingshan’s, and the other was vacant for the time being.

Of course, now there were only two left.

“I’ll help you move,” Lu Qingshan glanced at the Rat King, still consumed by grievances.

…..

Having moved into his new home, Lu Qingshan settled down, deciding to use this time to solidify his realm and digest what he had acquired.

He first visited the Treasure Pavilion’s Hall of Materials.

After the Grand Competition of the Dojo, the quota awarded by the Sword Sect for the Hall of Materials now came into play.

He purchased many Spirit Materials and treasures in the Hall of Materials.

First were the Spirit Materials required for the cultivation of a Fifth Grade Sword Armor. The quantity needed was substantial, but none of the materials were particularly precious.

If Lu Qingshan were still a Loose Cultivator, collecting them would have been quite troublesome.

Now, with the wealth of a sect’s treasury at his disposal, he gathered all the Sword Armor materials for just twenty Spirit Crystals.

Of course, that was just the minor part of his expenses.

The real expense lay in the Spirit Materials required to upgrade the Peach Blossom: four taels of Starfall Silver, nine taels of Gold Sand, seven taels of Blood Vein Silver, and ten jin of Verdant Copper.

Compared to the common materials needed for Fifth Grade Sword Armor, the Peach Blossom was indeed quite delicate.

The four types of Spirit Materials it required were all extremely rare metallic treasures.

Starfall Silver was meteoric iron that shimmered like stars, hence its name.

It had a near-unique affinity with the Primordial Spirit, and incorporating this material into his Life-bound Sword would surely produce wondrous effects for better control of the Flying Sword;

Verdant Copper was known for being extremely strong yet light as a feather.

If merged into the Life-bound Sword, it would greatly enhance the hardness of the Sword Artifact itself, making it less likely to be destroyed without making the sword too heavy, which would affect the Flying Sword Speed;

Gold Sand was a treasure material for smoothly conducting a Cultivator’s Mana, and Blood Vein Silver was unmatched in inclusiveness, capable of harmonizing various Spirit Materials to prevent them from melting together and causing conflicts.

As can be seen, these four types of Spirit Materials are particularly suited for integration into a Life-bound Sword.

Indeed, that was the case. With 3,220 disciples in the Sword Sect, each with the need to enhance their Life-bound Swords, they all hoped their Life-bound Swords could be stronger and sharper.

Due to their highly compatible properties with Sword Artifacts, these four types of Spirit Materials were always in high demand, often in short supply, and valuable.

However, Lu Qingshan seemed to be in luck, as the treasury had just what he needed this time. After spending two hundred and fifty Spirit Crystals, he finally gathered all the necessary Spirit Materials.

Lu Qingshan emerged from the Hall of Materials with full hands, his heart full of wonder.

To practice a Technique and enhance his Life-bound Sword’s quality, he had burned through hundreds of Spirit Crystals. It was fortunate that his own wealth far exceeded that of ordinary people, allowing him to just barely afford it.
