Chapter 8

  • The mission that Lin Xuan accepted was none other than the sword repair mission that he was familiar with. This was a level 4 mission that required a total of 30 contribution points and 20 low-grade spirit stones to repair three long swords.
  • Level 4 missions were considered relatively difficult in the outside world. In addition, this mission required three long swords to be repaired at the same time. Thus, no one accepted it for a long time. It just so happened that Lin Xuan took advantage of it.
  • When Lin Xuan took the mission plate to register, the disciple in charge of registration looked at him in surprise and reminded him, "Look carefully. You can only get contribution points if you repair three swords. You can't get any less."
  • "If you repair them, you will have to compensate. You have to think carefully." The registration disciple did not believe that Lin Xuan could repair them. This mission had been placed here for a long time and no one had accepted it. This was enough to show how difficult it was.
  • Lin Xuan nodded, indicating that he understood.
  • The registration disciple did not say anything. Instead, he took out three slightly narrower long swords and handed them to Lin Xuan.
  • "You can take them back, but you can also complete them here." The registration disciple said.
  • Lin Xuan roughly glanced at it and found that it was a little complicated. He asked, "Senior brother, I wonder if there are any similar missions to repair weapons."
  • "You can repair these first." The registration disciple dismissed him. "You have to be down-to-earth when doing things!"
  • Lin Xuan smiled helplessly and carried the three long swords back. Repairing weapons was a technical job that required some secret techniques. As a disciple of the Sword Pool Mansion, he had been learning how to repair weapons since he was young. Although he could not be called a master, he could still deal with these things.
  • The Sword Pool Mansion was very famous in the Da Xia Kingdom. It was not only because of their powerful strength, but also because of their ability to repair weapons.
  • In the Lingwu Continent, there was a special profession called the Weapon Nurturer. They could use extraordinary methods to repair weapons and even increase the power of weapons.
  • The Sword Pool Mansion had some special attainments in the cultivation of long swords. Thus, in the Da Xia Kingdom, they were also called Sword Nurturers. In the Sword Pool Mansion, there was a huge Sword Pool with tens of thousands of swords. The Sword Nurturers usually worked there. Lin Xuan grew up soaking in the water of the Sword Pool when he was young.
  • Lin Xuan returned to his new residence and closed the door. This was the residential area for the outer disciples. Everyone had their own small house, and the decorations inside were many times better than the previous house.
  • He placed the three swords on the table, drank some water, and then picked up a dark red sword.
  • Lin Xuan cut his fingertip and used his blood to draw a rune on the crack. The Spirit Qi in the air condensed into small dots of light and gathered towards the rune like hundreds of fireflies dancing in the air.
  • Although it was just a small rune, it contained the painstaking efforts of several generations. Every half an incense stick's worth of time, Lin Xuan would redraw it. After three times, the gap on the dark red sword had disappeared.
  • With a spurt of energy, Lin Xuan repaired the remaining two swords as well. It didn't take him much time to do so.
  • However, his face was somewhat pale. After all, doing these things consumed a lot of spiritual energy and mental energy.
  • He sat cross-legged and formed a seal with his hands. He circulated the Secret Art of Long Life with all his might. Traces of spiritual energy continuously circulated in his body. After an hour, Lin Xuan opened his eyes. He had reached his peak state.
  • "Thirty contribution points are mine." Lin Xuan's lips curled into a smile. He carried the three swords and went straight to the Hall of Missions.
  • "What? You finished? So fast! "The registration disciple's eyes widened.
  • After carefully inspecting it, the registration disciple did not find anything wrong.
  • "What the hell, how did this guy fix it?" The registration disciple was shocked.
  • "Senior brother, are there any similar missions?"
  • "Yes!" The registration disciple thought for a moment, then said with a serious expression, "This mission is beyond the fourth level. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be done by an outer disciple. However, it's been too long. Why don't you give it a try? "
  • "How's the pay?" Lin Xuan was focused on the contribution points.
  • "One hundred contribution points, plus fifty low-grade spirit stones." The registration disciple said.
  • "One hundred!" Lin Xuan shouted, causing the surrounding disciples to look at him in confusion. He quickly lowered his voice, "Senior brother, are you sure?"
  • When the registration disciple saw Lin Xuan's nervous expression, he felt a little funny.
  • "You don't have to be nervous. Other than you, no one else will take this mission." The registration disciple said, "But I have to remind you that this sword is very precious. If you are not confident, it's best not to take it."
  • For the one hundred contribution points, Lin Xuan did not hesitate to say, "I'll take it!"
  • The registration disciple wrote down the information, then carefully took out a rectangular box.
  • "This is a low-grade human-grade artifact." The registration disciple opened the box and said.
  • Lin Xuan took a deep breath when he saw the longsword. A small portion of the three-foot-long sword was covered in brown liquid.
  • Lin Xuan took the sword back and carefully examined it. He found that this low-grade human-grade artifact was more damaged than he thought.
  • "It seems that I need to use some materials to repair this sword." Lin Xuan held his chin with a serious face.
  • "There is a type of Yin grass that is very corrosive. It should be able to get rid of this brown stain." Lin Xuan had some ideas and decided to go to the Taihang Mountains tomorrow.
  • With an idea in mind, Lin Xuan once again immersed himself in cultivation. In the past, Lin Xuan could not open up his spirit veins, so he was not allowed to read the family's martial arts books. Now, he only had the Outer Sky Meteor, a set of family's basic sword techniques, and a set of basic movement techniques.
  • Basic martial arts also had its advantages. It could be said that it was the prototype of all advanced martial arts. Take the basic sword techniques, for example, it included all the basic movements of a sword move and the correct way to exert force.
  • Lin Xuan quickly immersed himself in his practice …
  • Early the next morning, Lin Xuan left for the Taihang Mountains.
  • A gentle breeze blew in the forest and the shadows of the trees danced. Lin Xuan practiced his basic footwork as he hurried on his way.
  • The Yin Elemental Grass grew on the shady side of the mountain. Lin Xuan searched everywhere but didn't find anything.
  • After searching for a whole morning, Lin Xuan still could not find it. He simply sat on the ground, took out some dry food and ate.
  • Not long after, there was the sound of fighting in front of him. There was also a faint roar of a beast. Lin Xuan was curious. He moved his body and ran towards the source of the sound.
  • Whoosh!
  • Lin Xuan hid in the nearby grass and looked up.
  • There were two groups of people in front of him. In the middle was a two-meter-long blood-eyed wolf. The one fighting with the blood-eyed wolf was a skinny teenager.
  • Lin Xuan knew this teenager. It was Luo Yi, the one who helped him answer his questions.
  • Luo Yi held a short sword and kept stabbing at the blood-eyed wolf. On average, one out of three stabs would hit the blood-eyed wolf. The blood-eyed wolf bared its teeth and waved its sharp claws, leaving streaks of cold light in the air.
  • Lin Xuan watched nervously, but soon he was surprised to find that Luo Yi's movement technique was somewhat unique.
  • Report
