Chapter 6, can this also trigger the passive ability of the yellow-haired character
One cannot achieve greatness without sacrificing something valuable
Gu Changsheng was quite confident in his protagonist's fate, but in order to avoid being knocked out with a single slap, he still took a pill before going on stage
Regarding the selection method for these two peaks, Gu Changsheng has heard a bit about it. The bronze sword is the town-protecting treasure of the Third Peak, and it is said to have been tainted by the blood of ancient great beings, which is why it appears so unadorned. To enter the Third Peak, one must communicate with the bronze sword using the sword heart cultivated over many years.
It can be said that he has no affinity with the Seventh Peak Sword Technique, as he sat down and began to comprehend the Dao; yet, if one were to say he has an affinity with the Seventh Peak Sword Technique... he sat there for half a day without any reaction
Considering that the former's act of spitting blood was somewhat inelegant, Gu Changsheng thought for a moment and decided to first conduct the assessment for the Seventh Peak. Many people were seated in the clearing before the tattered ancient book; some appeared to be deep in thought, while others seemed to have entered a trance, wildly waving their arms as if in madness
This process is destined to be quite labor-intensive, and there is a risk of backlash that could lead to severe consequences if one is not careful. While it may not be fatal, losing that much blood can be somewhat uncomfortable
The bronze dagger on the third peak next door suddenly trembled lightly, emitting a muffled hum. For the first time in countless years, it broke free from the restrictions imposed by the third peak and began to float slowly, thereafter shooting off as if it possessed a spirit.
Regarding the matter of Han Su, I hope the two elders will keep an eye on it for me
As he gazed at the figure gradually receding into the distance, Gu Changsheng instinctively activated the system's probing function before she vanished completely
Gu Changsheng swore that he had truly been deeply contemplating the sword technique just now, and had not at all thought about reversing his actions to go to the Third Peak...! ... But who would have known that while the east was dim, the west was bright; he was earnestly contemplating without any movement, yet inadvertently, a willow grew from a casual planting!
He quickly settled into a cross-legged position, entering a state of profound mystery, as everything around him gradually faded away, leaving him alone in the vast expanse of the world.
The elder wielding the sword at the Third Peak spoke in a gentle tone, and Gu Changsheng was momentarily taken aback, finally realizing the bronze short sword that was inserted between his legs
You are awake
As he gradually regained consciousness, Gu Changsheng noticed many unfamiliar faces around him, some old and some young
The bronze dagger plunged straight down, firmly embedding itself between Gu Changsheng's legs as he sat cross-legged. A humming sound emanated from the blade, as if it had severed Gu Changsheng's state of being, causing him to fall backward stiffly.
His face suddenly turned pale, fearing that the elder's next words would be: "You have already become a girl."
Your Excellency... you have arrived
Am I okay
Are you saying that in the area of my seventh peak of enlightenment, the connection is actually with the token of the third peak?
The elder wielding the sword at the Third Peak was bewildered, and Elder Wu from the Seventh Peak was also perplexed
Has Elder Wu ever seen Han Su come here
Gu Changsheng steadied himself and suddenly realized that the bronze sword embedded in the ground had not harmed him. Only then did he let out a long sigh of relief and, with a puzzled expression, asked: "Why... is this sword here?"
"It's nothing. If she appears, I would appreciate it if Elder Wu could inform me." The elegantly dressed beauty said lightly, "Thank you for your trouble."
The Daughter of Destiny: Qin Wuyi; Current Associated Destiny Qualities: Timeless Radiance (Taiyi Sword Master: Dao Companion), Emperor's Bearing (Lu Qingming: Master’s Wife); Importance Level: 100%
The target is clearly the illustration book...! ... Gu Changsheng, who is seated in the perception area of the Seventh Peak!
Am I truly remarkable, or am I not remarkable at all? Did the disqualified saintess even notice me?
Breakthrough Pill: Actively enter a state of clarity, significantly increase cultivation speed, and enhance the probability of successfully comprehending the techniques and principles of the Dao
In contrast, the selection process for the Seventh Peak appears much more tranquil. That ancient, tattered book is a manual of sword techniques, and all sword techniques passed down in the Seventh Peak are derived from this book. Therefore, whether a disciple can gain insight from this damaged sword manual determines their suitability for entering the Seventh Peak
Yes
Elder Wu hesitated for a moment and replied, "I have not seen the saintess this year"
Do not worry, His Majesty Qin has already investigated on your behalf, and your soul has not been harmed
As he was feeling gloomy, a sense of pressure slowly emanated from behind him. The elder wielding the sword felt a chill in his heart and quickly stood up, bowing his head in respect.
When a disciple who has gained insights from the Broken Sword Technique feels a faint sword light rising from their body, they will be waved away by the elder wielding the sword seated above. Those who appear to be driven mad will be knocked unconscious by the elder with a slap and then taken away after being given a Tranquil Heart Pill.
"Since he is unharmed, I, along with the illustrated book, shall take my leave first." A voice, ethereal and dreamlike, gently resonated, and only then did Gu Changsheng notice the beautiful woman in palace attire standing behind the two elders. She slightly nodded and addressed the two elders:
Am I not comprehending the sword technique of the Seventh Peak? Why then did I end up bringing over the bronze short sword from the Third Peak?
The elder wielding the sword, seated above, suddenly shifted his gaze slightly, as if he had noticed Gu Changsheng sitting in the corner. Among this year's batch of disciples, there were indeed promising candidates who resonated strongly with the Broken Sword Technique, but it was the first time he had encountered someone like Gu Changsheng, who entered a state of enlightenment the moment he sat down.
Elder Wu did not dare to be negligent; he responded and continued to sit, fixated on the assessment. The beautiful woman in palace attire swept her phoenix eyes across the crowd, seemingly searching for something. Finally, she gently spoke again and asked:
What is this fellow up to
Behind the Elder with the Sword stood a beauty in palace attire, her face veiled in light gauze, revealing only a pair of exceptionally captivating phoenix eyes. Upon closer inspection, one could discern a subtle air of authority hidden within.
Perhaps this is what is known as "accumulating strength before a sudden outburst"? The Elder with the sword decided to give this fortunate young man a bit of time. However, regrettably, until the end of Gu Changsheng's and the library's comprehension period, it seems that he was unable to grasp anything from the sword techniques of the Seventh Peak.
"Elder Wu, there is no need for excessive courtesy." The elegantly dressed beauty gently raised her hand in a gesture, her voice carrying a dreamlike quality: "You may continue with the assessment; I am merely passing by."
This is one of the trophies he obtained before Sister Li, and in order to make a remarkable impression here, Gu Changsheng has truly invested a great deal.
Han Su ... ? ... Did this aunt just mention the name of the disqualified saintess ?
Clearly, it was you who came here first
Who the hell asked you that? I was asking about my beloved friends and family! Brothers and sisters!
"I dare not." Elder Wu nodded, as he was aware of the temperament of that Holy Maiden. Just as he was about to say something, a commotion suddenly arose from the corner.
As he gazed at the sword-wielding elder of the Seventh Peak, there seemed to be a hint of melancholy in his eyes. He cleared his throat twice, feeling that the plan appeared to be slightly deviating from his expectations
This can also trigger the passive ability of the yellow-haired character! I am exasperated!
Having spoken, she turned and gracefully moved away, leaving Gu Changsheng with an incredibly alluring silhouette. Gu Changsheng was momentarily taken aback, his mind still not having cooled down from the recent state of enlightenment.
