Chapter 58: Chapter 58 Luck On the circular stone platform. Four Sword Masters stood side by side. Suddenly, the previously empty Sword Tomb surged with airflow as if a mirror shattered, revealing its true form. A giant stone sword, densely covered with swords. Surrounding the stone sword were numerous steles. The twenty-plus Inner Sect Disciples who had entered were standing among the forest of steles. "Ah, this time five people have matched with a Divine Sword?" "It seems this batch of Inner Sect Disciples is quite impressive." "Indeed, it’s good enough if one or two managed to match with Divine Swords when the Sword Tomb was opened in the past." "Maybe it’s because last time the Sword Tomb was opened, not a single one matched, so this time their luck is through the roof." ... After seeing the situation inside the Sword Tomb, the four Sword Masters became overjoyed. Matching with a Divine Sword is crucial. Generally speaking, True Disciples have the highest chance of matching. After all, among the younger generation of Inner Sect Disciples, True Disciples are definitely the best. As for those Inner Sect Disciples who have not comprehended Sword Intent, it’s basically impossible for them to match with a Divine Sword. Unless they can comprehend Sword Intent inside the Sword Tomb, but even then, the chances are slim. Therefore, the focus is on those disciples who have comprehended Sword Intent. If they are extremely lucky, there is a certain chance to match with a Divine Sword. Because some Divine Swords’ characteristics might be closely related to the Sword Intent comprehended by a disciple. "Whose disciple is the one on the right that also matched with a Divine Sword? Why haven’t I heard of him before?" A Sword Master wearing a silver mask asked curiously. " I heard he’s Disciple Zhou’s, tsk tsk, that old ghost finally got his wish." "Sometimes, luck is very important... That Divine Sword, it looks like it should be Sword Eighteen, I heard it had once belonged to the ancestor of old ghost Zhou’s lineage." "Indeed... The Sword Intent comprehended in the same lineage does have a significant advantage in matching with a Divine Sword of the same origin." Several Sword Masters then shifted their attention to Li Qian. After all, among the five who matched with Divine Swords, two are True Disciples, and the other two are also among the most outstanding martial genius disciples of the Inner Sect. Only Li Qian is inconspicuous. Creating a stark contrast. They could only attribute the reason to luck. .... Inside the Sword Tomb. Many gazes fell on Li Qian. It was not just Pang Bai who was jealous. There were also other disciples who did not match with a Divine Sword. Although this trip to the Sword Tomb brought some benefits to these disciples, The biggest benefit was lost. Holding a Divine Sword not only greatly enhances combat power but also significantly boosts the efficiency of improving Sword Intent. Every holder of a Divine Sword is sent back to the Sword Tomb after passing away, even those Divine Swords lost in battle are retrieved by the Divine Sword Sect at all costs. The reason they don’t directly pass the Divine Sword to their own disciples’ descendants is mainly to prevent privatization of the Divine Swords, to avoid them being completely monopolized by certain individuals. Also, the uniqueness of Divine Swords only truly shows its power after a successful match. The so-called matching is essentially the Divine Sword recognizing its master. "The Sword Tomb is now closed, all disciples leave immediately." A Sword Master with an iron mask standing on the circular platform said. Then, the twenty-some Inner Sect Disciples quickly returned to the circular platform, paid their respects to the four Sword Masters, and walked up the hanging stone path. .... In the Divine Sword Hall Square, many elders and Peak Masters gathered. Most of them were the masters of the Inner Sect Disciples who entered the Sword Tomb. Some were just there for the excitement. "Based on the time, the Sword Tomb should be closed by now." Someone said. "I wonder how many matched with a Divine Sword this time?" "Anyway, I don’t hold out hope for my disciple." "My disciple might have a chance." "Fat He, your disciple is a True Disciple, yet you say might have a chance, are you trying to provoke me, you fat slob?" "Hehe, not only my disciple is a True Disciple... isn’t Peak Master Wan’s disciple also a True Disciple? Just because one is a True Disciple, does it guarantee a match with a Divine Sword? Right, Peak Master Wan?" "I don’t know if your disciple could match with a Divine Sword, but mine definitely will." The speaker was a middle-aged female Taoist as cold as ice, carrying a sword. That was the Peak Master of Purple Lightning Peak, Fairy Wan. "Fairy Wan, if you put it that way, my disciple will definitely not have any problems either." The chubby elder said with a chuckling smile. ..... For these elder Peak Masters, using their own disciples to compete for prestige is a common affair. Although the Inner Sect Disciples hadn’t yet come out from the Sword Tomb, these elder Peak Masters had already begun their silent rivalry. At this moment, some Inner Sect Disciples walked out along the hanging stone path. He did not hold a sword in his hand. This Inner Sect Disciple’s mentor was immediately very disappointed. When entering the Sword Tomb, one does not carry a sword. If one comes out with a sword, it definitely must be a Divine Sword. As one Inner Sect Disciple after another stepped forward, some were joyful, some were sorrowful. "This time is not bad, actually four people have matched with a Divine Sword?" The plump elder said with a chuckle. Because he saw his disciple, Nangong Bei, holding a sword in his hand. "See, my disciple has matched with a Divine Sword." Another elder’s joy was overflowing in his words. Zhou Buping was also eagerly anticipating. Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure. It was his disciple, Li Qian. A sword? His eyes brightened, and the smile that spread across his face made it impossible to close his mouth again. Li Qian indeed did not disappoint him. Not only did he comprehend the Leakless Vajra Skill in the Sword Grinding Cave, but he also matched with a Divine Sword from the Sword Tomb. His decades of dull guarding in Yanmen Valley were finally not in vain. "Master." Li Qian walked up and said as he bowed. "Very good, let’s go back first." Zhou Buping tried to act nonchalant. At that moment, the plump elder glanced at the Divine Sword in Li Qian’s hand and pursed his lips, "Old ghost Zhou, your disciple is quite lucky." "Hmph." Zhou Buping snorted coldly and walked away with Li Qian. ... Chen Bell Platform. Liu Ming was practicing his punches. Having eaten medicated meat porridge for two consecutive meals which was greatly nourishing, he felt vigorous and his practice of Sword Stabbing Fist progressed much faster than usual. At this time, two figures swiftly approached from the foot of the mountain. It was Zhou Buping and his disciple. "Old master, Senior Brother Li." Liu Ming hurriedly stopped practicing. "Continue your cultivation." Li Qian waved his hand and then followed his master to another wooden hut. At the master’s wooden hut. Zhou Buping looked at the Divine Sword in Li Qian’s hand. "Sword Eighteen... was first held by our lineage’s founding ancestor." He gently caressed the blade of the Divine Sword, speaking wistfully. "Master, isn’t this Divine Sword nurtured by our founding ancestor?" Li Qian asked curiously. "No... this Divine Sword was also obtained by our founding ancestor from the Sword Tomb." Zhou Buping shook his head. "Then didn’t you say earlier that a Divine Sword can also be raised by oneself?" Li Qian was a bit confused. "It’s possible, but you must cultivate together with life, nurturing the sword day and night with your own essence, energy, and spirit... However, a self-nurtured Divine Sword can hardly compare to this kind of Divine Sword." Zhou Buping laughed, "This is a reluctant act when one cannot match with a Divine Sword in the Sword Tomb." "Master, is there something special about this Divine Sword?" Li Qian asked. "Very special, these Divine Swords and the sword seeds in the Sword Grinding Cave were originally existing, just excavated by our Divine Sword Sect." Zhou Buping said with a shake of his head: "It is said that comprehending Martial Intent to the Myriad Phenomena Level can thoroughly refine the Divine Sword, allowing one to truly achieve unity with the sword, storing the Divine Sword within one’s body." "The Divine Sword can be stored within the body?" Li Qian’s eyes lit up upon hearing. "Yes, but it’s extremely difficult, the Martial Intent comprehension has to reach the Myriad Phenomena Level... which is probably even harder than elevating one’s cultivation to the Martial Saint Realm." Zhou Buping sighed and said, "So far, no one in our Divine Sword Sect has been able to achieve this." "Master, how are the levels of Martial Intent classified?" Li Qian couldn’t help but ask. He had already broken through to the True Image Level, but it was only after the breakthrough that the system interface displayed this level of information. "According to my understanding, Martial Intent is divided into five levels: Illusion Level, Myriad Phenomena Level. After matching with the Divine Sword, your Sword Intent will definitely improve faster and it might only take a few years to reach the Illusion Level..." Zhou Buping said. Li Qian really wanted to say that he had already reached the True Image Level. Unfortunately, such a speed was too incredible. He definitely could not reveal that. After all, even with the comprehension of a genius, it would be impossible to explain such a terrifying speed.
