I Have A Cultivation World-Chapter 692 - 419 Sword Tower_2

Chapter 692 -419 Sword Tower_2

In a quick glance, Chen Mobai spotted over a dozen flying swords better in quality than his Flying Sparrow Hairpin.

Soon, they arrived on the third floor.

Chen Mobai opened his eyes wide, wanting to see exactly how many Rank-3 flying swords were in the Sword Tower.

Unfortunately, the Rank-3 flying swords were not as easily accessible or visibly displayed as those on the two lower floors. Instead, they were all sealed within one sword box or sword bag after another.

Chen Mobai carefully counted—there were thirty-seven in total.

But were those sword boxes and bags truly filled, or were they empty?

...

He asked Pei Qingshuang next to him, but she shook her head, saying that storing and nurturing the swords above the third floor were personally done by Hao Cao.

Pei Qingshuang had spent quite some time on the fourth floor and once considered opening other sword boxes out of boredom. Unfortunately, she could only open the box containing her Qing Shuang sword.

While the two conversed, they finally reached the fourth floor.

Seeing the four sword boxes and two sword bags levitating against the wall, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but be slightly shocked.

Were there really six Rank-4 swords in the Sword Tower?

“That sword box used to contain my Qing Shuang sword, but it’s empty now,” Pei Qingshuang said, pointing to a dark green sword box covered in frost patterns.

That said, were there only five Rank-4 swords left? One or possibly more of the boxes could be empty, with only the Purple Electric Sword remaining.

As Chen Mobai pondered this, Hao Cao approached a deep purple sword box. He performed a simple hand seal, and the box opened.

A wash of purple light appeared, revealing a longsword about 1.2 meters long to Chen Mobai’s gaze.

What caught his eye the most though, was the Spirit Stone next to the Purple Electric Sword. A pure stream of Spiritual Energy continuously poured into the sword, seemingly nourishing it.

Chen Mobai was unsure of the grade of the Spirit Stone and dared not carelessly probe it with his Divine Sense. However, since Pei Qingshuang surely knew, he asked her.

“That’s a high-grade Spirit Stone subsidized by the Immortal Sect. A single stone can sustain the requirements of the Purple Electric Sword for ten years,” she replied.

Having heard this, Chen Mobai relaxed and started to admire the Rank-4 sword.

A round handle with cloud patterns, long, narrow blade—the design was simple yet elegant.

The blade had eight faces and two degrees of curvature, making it straight and proper. It looked plain and unpretentious yet exuded a sense of dignity and majesty.

Hao Cao placed the White Stone next to the Purple Electric Sword. He then entered a series of codes into a screen on the inside of the box, causing the Purple Electric Sword to flicker.

“Resonance degree of 25%.”

Upon seeing the number displayed on the screen, Chen Mobai found it fascinating.

This experience was similar to his first time using the formless mannequin back at Dance Tool Dao Academy.

“In the resonance degree, the Sword Qi from the White Stone accounts for half. However, when I initially set it up, I configured that ten strands of Sword Qi would be the full score. So your five strands represent this 25%,” Hao Cao explained.

“The remaining 50% includes Thunder method, sword technique, Spiritual Root, and more.”

“Reach out your hand and grab the hilt according to my instructions, then display your Thunder method…”

Hao Cao guided Chen Mobai to come over, explaining the details of the Resonance System to him. This was a test that was usually conducted in the final round.

However, for the final four candidates, an early attempt did not break any rules.

Following Hao Cao’s guidance, Chen Mobai extended his hands and gripped the hilt of the Purple Electric Sword in the box.

The rounded hilt still had some space left even when held with both hands. Without the wrapping of the Spiritual Rope, the feel was smooth and cool to the touch.

Sizzle!

Accompanying the eruption of Yi Wood Divine Thunder from Chen Mobai’s fingertips, the dormant Purple Electric Sword seemed to awaken, with purple arcs of light appearing on its blade.

Chen Mobai felt the Divine Thunder he channeled being absorbed by the sword hilt, but he dared not stop as Hao Cao had not yet given the command. He could only secretly stimulate his Longevity Spiritual Power to keep the thunder manifesting.

About fifteen minutes later, Chen Mobai felt that more than half of the Spiritual Power in his Dantian Qi Sea had been consumed. He didn’t want to risk exposing his perfect Foundation Establishment level of his Longevity Spiritual Power by continuing like this.

Upon a moment of contemplation, he thought it was better to be cautious. He signaled to Hao Cao standing next to him that his spiritual power was almost exhausted.

“Alright, let’s leave it at that.”

Upon hearing this, Hao Cao disconnected Chen Mobai from the Purple Electric Sword.

“Don’t we need to test the Sword Dao Realm?”

Chen Mobai took a moment to recover, pretending to have regained his power. Seeing Hao Cao about to close the sword box of the Purple Electric Sword, he couldn’t help but inquire curiously.

“The Sword Qi within the White Stone can estimate your Sword Dao Realm, but the crux lies in the final round, the communication with the spirituality of the Purple Electric Sword. All your spiritual root talent and sword cultivation will be sensed clearly by the Purple Electric Sword at that time in the Sea of Consciousness, so there’s no need for it this time.”

Before closing the sword box, Hao Cao gestured Chen Mobai to look at the numbers on the screen.

Resonance Degree 33%.

This score was already superior to Ruan Zixiu, the Core Formation sword cultivator of Shanhai Academy. However, Hao Cao kept a calm face, apparently not surprised at all.

“Your talent in the Thunder Method is indeed extraordinary. It’s just a pity that the attribute of Yi Wood Divine Thunder is different from that of Purple Sky Divine Thunder, so it only added 8%.”

After explaining the issue of resonance to Chen Mobai, Hao Cao led them towards the fifth floor.

Pei Qingshuang had mentioned earlier that Chen Mobai wanted to pay his respects to the Sea-settling Sword.

Such request would definitely be catered to by Hao Cao.

The whole fifth floor was empty.

Only in the center was a nearly two-meter-long rectangular piece of jade, which was slightly transparent, and it was faintly visible that a cyan longsword was sealed inside.

“Is this… a Spirit Stone!?”

Chen Mobai followed Hao Cao to the long rectangular jade, slightly puzzled, he asked.

He was very familiar with spirit stones, but he could not sense any spiritual energy from this stone, it was like a common piece of jade.

However, common spirit-providing equipment was simply not enough to nourish high-grade magic artifacts in the Immortal Sect, and spirit stones were usually used.

“Yes, this is a top-grade Spirit Stone of the Immortal Sect, transformed into the Sword Box for the Sea-Settling Sword, but it can only last for sixty years.”

Upon hearing about the top-grade spirit stone, Chen Mobai’s eyes widened.

Even in the entire Eastern Wilderness, one could not find a top-grade spirit stone. It was unexpected that the Immortal Sect possessed such resources.

The price of a single top-grade spirit stone roughly converted to the good deed points of the Immortal Sect would amount to 10 billion.

And this was just enough to maintain the Sea-Settling Sword for sixty years.

No wonder Gongye Zhixu was willing to invest the Primordial Yang Sword into the expansion of the Little Red Sky. The Pure Yang Academy could not even utter a word against it.

Without the subsidy of the Immortal Sect, a university like theirs could hardly sustain a Rank-5 high-grade flying sword!

After paying respect to the Sea-settling Sword, Chen Mobai left the Sword Tower with inexplicable feelings.

Originally, he thought he had already amassed a fortune by setting up a puppet factory. Now, he realized he was still a bit poor.

He wondered if he could coax this Rank-4 Sword over by promising the Purple Electric Sword ten times the spirit stone treatment?

As Chen Mobai pondered about raising the offer to twenty times the usual, someone came to visit him unexpectedly.

“Yan Feng?”

Seeing the person at the door, Chen Mobai looked surprised. The old rival during the Danxia City entrance exam, who had already successfully established his foundation and was considered brilliant amongst his peers, yet when compared to himself, seemed rather mediocre.

“I heard that the top student of the Dance Instrument Daoist Academy had arrived. Considering we come from the same city, I thought of paying a visit. Do you need me to show you around Shanhai Academy or the White Stone Cave Sky?”

Yan Feng politely greeted Chen Mobai, seemingly devoid of the resentment he held when he lost the enrollment examination to him. His eyes and attitude demonstrated respect.

“Thank you, but Pei Qingshuang has already shown me around.”

“Teacher Pei Qingshuang? Only someone like you, who is the pride of heaven, would be a match for her.”

Upon hearing these words, Chen Mobai felt a bit strange.

“Wait a minute, what do you mean by that? What do you mean ‘a match for her’?”
