This Sword Cultivator is Somewhat Dependable-Chapter 938 - 13 Speak Without Reservation

Several lines of small firefly-like text flickered continuously on the panel.

Lu Qingshan glanced over them briefly.

"You’ve comprehended the creation of Secret Sword Technique: Spring Breeze Returns."

[Secret Sword: Spring Wind Returns] lv1: An extreme speed swordsmanship, so fast it can traverse space.

Secret Sword Effect: When your sword artifact is within a hundred feet of the enemy, you can slash through space, guaranteed to hit with one strike.

Note: This sword cannot be dodged but can be defended against.

Additional Note: This Secret Sword is highly compatible and can be used simultaneously with other secret sword techniques.

"By independently creating a Secret Sword Technique, your mastery of swordsmanship has reached its pinnacle, surpassing limits. Congratulations!"

Spring Breeze Returns, even "Deep Blue" acknowledges it as a Secret Sword Technique.

......

Li Qiubai’s single sword slash could be called that of a land-dwelling immortal, while Lu Qingshan’s Water Sword cut through iron chains - though different in intensity and momentum, both were undoubtedly sword techniques that one would remember endlessly.

Chang’an Sword Immortal was famous, so such a performance made Lu Ming Liang’s scalp tingle with shock, yet he could accept it deep down.

After all, for a Sword Immortal, being somewhat outrageous was normal.

But Lu Qingshan was clearly just a humble, insignificant Void Refining Cultivator. How could he display such techniques?

Lu Ming Liang couldn’t understand, nor could he accept it.

"Who exactly is this young man?"

This vice sect master of Water Cloud Platform had numerous thoughts flashing through his mind, and suddenly a conjecture arose intuitively.

Could it be that he is the offspring of Chang’an Sword Immortal and that person...?

When this thought emerged, the more Lu Ming Liang pondered, the more plausible it seemed.

After all, Li Qiubai had always walked alone with his sword.

Back in the day, not even that person could keep him, so when had the Chang’an Sword Immortal been seen traveling with a young Void Refining Sword Cultivator?

If there wasn’t some relationship between the two, he wouldn’t believe it.

Moreover, for a Void Refining Sword Cultivator to display such fearsome techniques, there must be an extraordinarily gifted talent in the Sword Dao.

If he were Li Qiubai’s offspring, it would also make perfect sense.

- A tiger father has no dog son.

Here, Lu Ming Liang had already silently made assumptions about Lu Qingshan’s identity.

It’s only because their Water Cloud Platform Artifact Refiners often seclude themselves within Water Cloud Platform, rarely stepping out, solely focused on Artifact Refining techniques, they don’t concern themselves with external affairs.

So he had never heard of Lu Qingshan, didn’t recognize him, and thus naturally misled himself into a respectful mindset.

Lu Ming Liang, due to his unsettled mind, didn’t speak immediately.

The Divine Armor Army of the Water Cloud Platform couldn’t possibly make noise rashly, so the mighty Lan Cang River seemed a bit quiet at the moment.

The people were still savoring the previous marvelous spectacle.

But within Lu Qingshan’s mind, several voices had already sounded successively.

"Young master truly is the young master," Qin Yitian said softly, with a touch of admiration in her tone.

Previously witnessing Li Qiubai’s more astonishing mortal slashing sword, she had remained calm and said nothing.

However, once Lu Qingshan perfected Spring Breeze Returns, Qin Yitian was immediately the first to speak, unable to remain composed any longer.

In her previous life, the Sword Spirit maiden was a typical "devoted fan."

"This is so cool! This is so cool! Lu Qingshan, quickly teach me, you must teach me!" Gu Yiyi’s eyes gleamed as she exclaimed.

Strong?

She wasn’t scarce for that.

Cool?

She was intensely envious!

If she learned it, wouldn’t she be able to show off everywhere?

Look around, how is everyone looking at Lu Qingshan now?

If one day, so many people looked at her that way, wouldn’t that be exhilarating?

Gu Yiyi was extremely envious.

"Good fellow! Good fellow!" Even the Demon Suppressing briefly praised.

Its persona was of a short-tempered little brother; how could it, like the other two Sword Spirits, lack reserve?

Buzz!

The little transparent Peach Blossom, not knowing what to say, buzzed to join in, feeling a bit involved as everyone was speaking.

.....

"Let’s go, into the building," Li Qiubai asked after inquiring about the sword technique’s name, withdrew his gaze from Lu Qingshan and turned to Lu Ming Liang.

Lu Ming Liang thus came to his senses, remembered the main matter, and quickly said, "Sword Immortal, please."

Li Qiubai moved without ceremony, leaping to follow Lu Ming Liang.

Lu Qingshan quickly followed them.

However, this time he didn’t bring along the two sisters.

- He thought for a bit, released the hands of his two nominal disciples, and softly instructed, "Wait here for me, I’ll be out soon."

The upcoming discussions would undoubtedly be significant, involving many secrets.

He could listen thanks to Li Qiubai, and he wasn’t thoughtless, choosing not to bring the sisters along, leaving them on the large boat.

He wasn’t worried about Water Cloud Platform doing anything during this time.

This was not negligence, but because Li Qiubai’s presence provided immense security, leaving his heart without worry.

"Okay, Master." The two sisters nodded obediently, indicating they would listen to their master.

......

The three soared through the air, passing the black tide connected in a line with iron chains on all sides, straight to the Water Cloud Tower.

At the first level of the Water Cloud Tower, a tightly closed bronze door, carved with numerous patterns and exuding a mysterious aura, stood prominently.

Just as the three reached the entrance, the bronze door began to move slowly, opening to reveal a dark, bottomless entrance.

Lu Ming Liang proceeded without hesitation.

Li Qiubai did the same.

Lu Qingshan followed in suit.

Passing through the short entrance into the first layer of Water Cloud Tower, Lu Qingshan immediately noticed that the seemingly small Water Cloud Tower from the outside was astonishingly spacious inside.

There was no end in sight, surrounded by a multitude of dense Artifact Refining Rooms, and even a vein of earthfire ran through the first level of the Water Cloud Tower’s space.

This was a feat of Mustard Seed Containing Mount Meru, encompassing a vast space within a mustard seed.

An elder resembling a mortal of around fifty or sixty was standing not far ahead of them.

The elder wore a white Taoist robe, his posture erect like a green pine, with a faint energy flowing on his face, exuding an ethereal and transcendent aura like an immortal being.

"Sect Master." Seeing the elder, Lu Ming Liang bowed respectfully.

This person was the Sect Master of Water Cloud Platform, one of the top Artifact Refining artisans in this world.

Such a figure had personally come to greet Li Qiubai.

This gesture gave full respect.

The elder waved at Lu Ming Liang, then looked towards Li Qiubai.

"Shui Wuya of Water Cloud Platform greets Chang’an Sword Immortal. If there was any offense earlier, Sword Immortal, please do not hold it against us."

Shui Wuya slightly bowed his head, showing sincerity, "This way, Sword Immortal, please. What you wish to know will receive a satisfactory answer upstairs."

He pointed to the staircase within the Water Cloud Tower, making his meaning evident.

Li Qiubai seemed unconcerned, nodding slightly.

Shui Wuya said no more, stepping forward to lead them upstairs.

As they ascended the stairs, Lu Qingshan observed many Artifact Refining Rooms on each floor.

He also noticed many blue-robed Artifact Refiners gathered together, intensely discussing something.

This was a hub for Artifact Refiners.

Only in such a place could one see so many high-quality Artifact Refiners, creating such an atmosphere.

Unconsciously, they reached the ninth floor, the top of the Water Cloud Tower.

Compared to the vastness of the other eight floors, the top floor of the Water Cloud Tower was unexpectedly small, almost the same size as it appeared from outside.

It consisted of a large Eight Trigram Platform, with numerous formation patterns on the floor and several meditation cushions placed around.

Sunlight shone through holes in the surrounding walls, highlighting fine dust motes floating in the beams.

"Please sit." Shui Wuya gestured for them to sit.

Li Qiubai sat cross-legged without ceremony.

Lu Qingshan did the same.

Shui Wuya smiled and then slowly sat down.

"If Chang’an Sword Immortal has any questions, feel free to ask, and I will answer everything to the best of my ability," Shui Wuya spoke first.
