Chapter 375: [Sword Sheath Upgrades, Divine Fire Appears]


    As time went on, a day and night just passed like that.


    Lu Xun stayed inside the altar, waiting for the end of the Sword Sheath’s upgrade.


    During the day, he would either be staring eye to eye with “The Sword Qi is Near”, or he would spend his time scrolling through the forum, reading the mboyant posts made by jokester yers.


    It’s a pity that he couldn’t show these posts to others, nor could he share them. It was as if he was missing half the fun.


    When he was bored, he would observe the three-eyed statue at the center of the altar and touch it all over from top to bottom.


    The touch was quite satisfactory.


    Of course, the main aim was to see if there were any mechanisms or any mysteries.


    When his right hand touched the statue, he could feel a strand of power emanating from it — the “Primordial Power”!


    From this, it’s clear that “Primordial Power” should be the core power of each altar.


    This altar was shockinglyrge, muchrger than ordinary altars. Therefore, there was an additional erect three-eyed statue and a significantly more abundant “Primordial Power” hidden within said statue.


    Following the principle of sucking it dry as long as it doesn’t kill you, Lu Xun tried to guide the “Primordial Power” within the statue, but found that he couldn’t swallow it.<div>


    “It seems that unless I get another Dao Bead, it’s very difficult to upgrade the ‘Primordial Power’ Special Attribute Points,” he thought to himself.


    “Never mind. Forget about the Primordial Power. Focus on dismantling the altar and acquiring Random Special Attribute Points, that’s the most important thing!” Lu Xun dismissed other thoughts and once again checked the Sword Sheath’s upgrade progress.


    Half an hourter, the Sword Sheath’s upgrade had finallypleted!


    The ck stream of energy produced by the Soul Devouring me had beenpletely absorbed by it, and the surrounding Spiritual Energy was no longer flowing into the Sword Sheath.


    It floated silently in the air, its two ‘ck cords’ be more lively, indicating that the instrument spirit had regained consciousness.


    Lu Xun opened the equipment pane and checked the properties of the Sword Sheath.


    “Grade: Superior Purple Level”!


    As expected, the upgrade was sessful!


    This made Lu Xun overjoyed as this meant that all the basic attributes of the Sword Sheath had taken a great leap forward!


    To put it into perspective, even that Divine Sword from One Sword Mountain, when damaged, is only a Superior Purple Level!


    If this was his past life, Lu Xun wouldn’t have dared to dream this big. He didn’t dare to think about purple equipment, let alone superior purple equipment.


    He turned his head and nced at the Sword Sheath, which floated to his side, raised its ‘ck cords’, and gently rubbed his backhand.


    “The Sword Qi is Near” crowded over, wanting to be petted too.


    The ‘ck cord’ on the Sword Sheath was about tosh out at him as usual, but considering that it had run a great distance to rescue itself, it only lightly smacked it.


    A bully cutie, little fists are going to punch you in the chest oh~


    “My God, I’ve just been force-fed the lovey-dovey act of a sword and a sword sheath?!” Lu Xun detected a sour smell.


    Ignoring their public disys of affection, he continued browsing the property description in the equipment pane.


    What attracted his attention the most were the two special skills of the Sword Sheath — “Sword Sealing” and “Gather Qi”.


    Both of these special attributes have received a 50% increase, and at the same time, a new additional effect has been added.<div>


    — “Divine Fire”!


    Although he didn’t understand why the Sword Sheath got this additional effect called “Divine Fire” after swallowing the sparks remaining from the Soul Devouring me, this wasn’t the point he needed to focus on.


    What he was more interested in, was the effect.


    ording to the property introduction, the effects are clear. For instance, the special skill “Sword Sealing”, can prevent the opponent’s weapon from being unsheathed, and even prevent it from being used, especially effective against swords.<div>


    With “Divine Fire”, not only can it prevent the opponent’s longsword from being unsheathed, but it can also cause it to sear while it is sealed!


    As for “Gather Qi”, that’s even easier to understand. The Sword Qi that Lu Xun infuses into the Sword Sheath will have a minor effect of the Soul Devouring me.


    A less exaggerated version of the Soul Devouring me, but as his level goes up, the power will be stronger and stronger.


    Right now, when the Sword Qi unsheathes, it wille with a weakened version of the power of the Soul Devouring me!


    “A major profit from this round!” Lu Xun cheered in his heart.


    Thanks to the fire sent by the Second Priest!


    He turned his head to look at the Sword Sheath, wanting to test its power, but instead saw a scene that hurt his eyes.


    “The Sword Qi is Near” wanted to try out if the Sword Sheath could hold it after the upgrade and to see if it could experience the pleasure of returning to its sheath again.


    But the Sword Sheath didn’t want it to try and was using its ck cords to whip it.


    “Cooee~~ How can you be so hasty!” Lu Xun looked at it with contempt.


    I didn’t expect you to be like this, “The Sword Qi is Near”!


    You, lower your sword!


    Lu Xun beckoned at the sword sheath, and it quickly flew into the palm of his hand, being incredibly docile.<div>


    It did whatever he requested.jpg.


    The Sword Qi is Near hovered nearby, unsure of what to do next.


    “Let me test your power after your advancement,” Lu Xun said to the sword sheath.


    “Go!” He waved hisrge hand, and a stream of sword qi shot out of the sheath towards the three-eyed statue at the center of the altar.


    The sword qi hit the left eye of the statue, sting a hole into it, and ck mes burned, erging the hole!


    Lu Xun watched this scene, his eyes lighting up.


    The powerup effect was significant, and every stream of sword qi was more potent than before!


    Anyway, he was set to demolish the altar; he held the sword sheath and shot sword qi, having a st.


    The Sword Qi is Near fluttered nearby, watching its sheath spew streams of this man’s sword qi, it felt a mix of emotions, its heartplex.


    It floated in a corner seemingly devoid of color.


    When Lu Xun grew tired of ying, he nced at the now disfigured three-eyed statue, he feltzy to hold back.


    It’s time to start my bomb show.


    Thousands of sword qi were unleashed in an instant. The dense, intimidating sword qi first turned the statue into dust, then began sting at the entire altar.<div>


    The Sword Qi is Near watched from the back, its emotions furtherplicated.


    —he has used so many…


    The altar began to copse continuously, the parts that You Ying painstakingly repaired were gradually being destroyed.


    The earthshaking noise startled everyone outside of the altar, but under Mo Yixi’s signal, no one entered the altar, everyone quietly waited outside for the result.


    He and his half-sister from the same father, Mo Yurou, exchanged nces, both of their eyes reflected limitless surprise.


    With their cultivation base, naturally, they could sense what was happening inside.


    Such power, such destruction, surprisingly from the hands of a third-realm cultivator!


    If they haven’t seen it with their own eyes, they would never believe it.


    Compared to this power, any ordinary cultivator in the same realm isn’t his match in even one move!


    Mo Yixi suddenly understood why Jiang Nan’an would yield to Lu Xun.


    If his younger self had met such an extraordinarily talented person, he would probably also be profoundly conquered.


    “The legendary Natural Sword Embryo truly lives up to its reputation,” Mo Yixi sighed.


    Mo Yurou nodded and closed her slightly agape, full lips.<div>


    Now she understood; when Lu Xun subdued the berserk Jiang Nan’an that day, he didn’t use his full strength at all.


    Every member of the Demon Sect in the back mountain is indeed a monster!


    At this moment, booming sounds continued to echo, Li Zuole and others, with their foresight, turned on the recording function.


    As Lu Xun’s Sword-Serving Children, they willingly became Lu Xun’s voice in the forum, always looking to build momentum for the Purple Pce, not missing any opportunity.


    Perhaps because most of the main altar buildings were destroyed, it led to the copse of the altar hidden beneath the Uncold Forest.


    Arge piece ofnd began to sink, a fierce wave of air and dust started spreading in all directions.


    The deafening noise could be heard clearly even from afar.


    The ground around them seemed to shake a bit.


    The dust in the sky blocked their vision; in the lens, beside flying ashes, nothing could be seen clearly.


    And by the time the dust had settled, all there was in front of them was ruins.


    In the ruins stood a tall figure.


    Dark energy swirled around him, his ck robe remained spotless, his ck hair fluttered in the wind. Countless sword qi exploded around him, turning into specks of light, like the starry river in the sky falling to earth!


    The shattered altar beneath his feet was burning with pitch-ck mes, this was the effect of the Divine Fire!


    The sword sheath, which was his signature, was in his hand.


    Floating around him was the peerless Sword Qi is Near.


    Lu Xun did not turn his head around, he stood atop the ruins, surrounded by strands of ck mes, leaving everyone with just a silhouette of his back.


    A message popped up before his eyes:


    “[Ding! You have destroyed a foreign race altar rge), would you like to im the reward?]”
