There’s Something Wrong With This Account

Chapter 452: 452,【Great Cultivator Lu Xun】
Lu Xun was raking in Experience Points, so he wasted no time in raising the Skill Level of One Sword to Level 5.

His other primary skills – Sword Cultivating Technique, Ink Painting, etc. remained at Level 5 and did not continue to advance.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t level it up. Compared to the mystic Five Elements Cultivation Technique which required ridiculously high Experience Points, leveling up skills was relatively economical.

The main reason was that before reaching Level 50, Level 5 skills were sufficient.

Before becoming a Great Cultivator, even if you level up the skill to Level 10, the maximum level, the power it can exhibit would still be limited.

Therefore, overly improving skill levels doesn’t bring a high return on investment.

Of course, this doesn’t apply to low-quality Yellow Level Skills, it only applies to Blue Level Skills and above.

Once the One Sword was upgraded, Lu Xun wanted to try it out, but circumstances didn’t permit!

Against the likes of Ji Li and Lin Chan, he might end up killing them with a single stroke…

This skill doesn’t hold back; when it’s used, it’s unleashed with full force!

Therefore, it’s a killing technique, utterly unsuitable for sparring.

Jeffing a bout doesn’t mean you actually cut a person…

After musing a while, Lu Xun decided not to recommend this skill to Ji Li and Lin Chan.

Because, in general, One Sword is too fierce; it belongs to a kill or be killed series.

As for Lin Chan and Ji Li, they are better suited to the other three Superior Purple Level skills.

After putting down the Jade Simplicity, Lu Xun found himself with nothing to do.

Noticing Lin Chan and Ji Li still immersed in the sea of books, he did not disturb them.

Having this opportunity to improve their Sword Dao was precious for the two women. They had to cherish it.

With nothing better to do, Lu Xun checked out the forum. Suddenly, a prompt appeared:

“Ding! Task [Wrath of the Supreme Lord] has been completed!”

Lu Xun stared at the prompt for a moment, then blinked. “I almost forgot about this task!”

Since he came back to the backyard, Lu Xun felt incredibly safe.

Coming to the Central Continent under the lead of the teacher, he had felt no danger at all.

Because of this, he hadn’t been paying much attention to this task. The seven-day deadline passed in a blink of an eye.

“What a pity. I was hoping some powerful Foreign Race being would come here and give me their life,” Lu Xun lamented.

Lu Xun sneered at the Foreign Race. How could they wimp out just because there was a teacher here?

Just because I wrote down the character for ‘Sword’ with a brush and used my second senior sister’s sword to slay your descending ‘God’!

“Sigh, I was hoping to score some Experience Points.” Lu Xun felt like he missed out a lot.

Since the task was already completed, the rewards for the task arrived too.

He received a total of 5 million Experience Points and a Purple Level Equipment Repair Coupon.

This brings Lu Xun’s total Experience Points to over 50 million!

“I have nothing to do at the moment, might as well use these points to level up!” Lu Xun thought.

He wasn’t planning on keeping too many Experience Points this time, because he was eager to know what changes would occur to the mystic Five Elements Cultivation Method after the fifth level?

After all, after the fifth level, the grading of this Cultivation Method becomes Orange Level!

Lu Xun sat down cross-legged again and then opened the character panel.

He was currently Level 46, and leveling up required 7 million Experience Points.

To upgrade from Level 47 to Level 48 required 8 million.

It was increasing by a million for each level.

That is to say, leveling up to Level 50 required 7+8+9+10, a total of 34 million Experience Points!

Lu Xun’s face was full of agony as he broke four realms in succession, raising his level directly to Level 50 – Great Perfection of the fourth realm.

The surging Spiritual Energy converged towards him, forming a gigantic Spiritual Energy Vortex.

Spiritual Energy crazily surged into his body, making his already robust Spirit Force even more so!

With the prone-to-riot Spiritual Energy grouped together, it became unbearable for a regular person to handle.

The wild Spiritual Energy brought intense fluctuations and chaos to his surroundings, considering this was breaking four realms, not a simple realm breakthrough.

Outside the house, at the stone table in the courtyard.

The strange teapot turned to face the small house, shuddering uncontrollably for a few moments.

This man… he actually made a breakthrough!

Had he been pretending before?

It appears to be quite agitated! Look at it, the lid is angrily flying up and falling down, over and over again.

But after all, it’s just a teapot. No matter how spiritual it may be, no one can understand its feelings.

Meanwhile, outside of the courtyard, the gentleman was standing there peacefully, his expression remaining unchanged.

He didn’t seem to be surprised at this display of breaking through four territories in one go.

The spiritual energy on the mountain top was temporarily drawn away, followed by the surrounding spiritual energy slowly converging towards this side.

When Lu Xun opened his eyes, he glanced at his character panel.

“Damn, from level 50 to 51, it actually takes 17 million experience points!” Lu Xun felt that this point consumption was utterly outrageous.

He carefully checked it, only to find out that the original level up only required 12 million points. The extra 5 million were additional experience points.

“Could this be the price of leveling up the cultivation technique?” Lu Xun appeared puzzled.

Unfortunately, the game’s system couldn’t provide an answer to his question.

Lu Xun gritted his teeth. He had to level up sooner or later anyway, better to get it over with all at once.

After spending another 17 million experience points, the remaining experience points in Lu Xun’s character panel weren’t much.

At this moment, an even larger vortex of spiritual energy formed instantly!

The current vortex of spiritual energy was even more vigorous than when he broke through four territories!

Even the gentleman outside of the courtyard, his usual composed expression showed a slight change.

With a smile on his face, he gave a slight nod of approval, seemingly very satisfied.

“If so, Little Five, let me lend you a hand.” The gentleman flicked his white robe and reached out with his hand that was designedly holding an orchid finger.

The surrounding spiritual energy was immediately pulled and then flowed into the vortex of spiritual energy inside the courtyard.

The total amount of spiritual power Lu Xun needed for this breakthrough was quite intimidating.

Due to his recent breakthrough through four territories, the spiritual energy in the immediate vicinity was a bit thin, which would slow down his breakthrough.

The gentleman’s casual pull, however, could speed up Lu Xun’s breakthrough process.

Most importantly, the breakthrough process was truly painful.

There was not a place on his body where Lu Xun didn’t feel pain.

If the breakthrough were to progress at a leisurely pace, he estimated that he would be in pain for quite a while. But with the gentleman’s help, it was best to get it over with quickly.

Clearly, the gentleman understood this process, and that’s why he was helping Lu Xun.

Actually, Lu Xun considered himself quite resilient to pain, perhaps he overestimated himself after all.

Remember, he was the one who had jumped off the Lead Peak when he was at level 0.

That time, while he didn’t exactly turn into a pile of meat, he was indeed badly hurt.

And this time, the sensation was like continuously free-falling off the Lead Peak, constantly being crushed into pulp.

To describe it, it felt like being ground from Lu Xun into minced Xun…

The worst part was, his consciousness was clear, he couldn’t faint, he had to bear the enormous pain all the time!

“Wow, uncle, did you create this cultivation technique just to torture the gentleman?” This thought crossed Lu Xun’s mind.

Time passed by the minute and the second, this feeling actually only lasted for the time it took an incense stick to burn out.

But to Lu Xun, it felt like several hours had passed.

When all had ended, Lu Xun opened his eyes, momentarily still unable to regain control of his body.

He felt numb all over, and thought it was quite an achievement to be able to open his eyes.

Just then, a warm current began to flow through his body.

It turned out that the considerate sword sheath had spit out a green pearl. The green energy within it was nourishing Lu Xun’s body.

“Good thing I’ve been nice to you.” Lu Xun thought to himself, “Wait a bit, I’ll feed you some thicker, stronger, and more vigorous sword Qi!”

Although he wasn’t injured and didn’t need the green pearl to heal him, either way, this warm feeling was comfortable, making the numbness in his body gradually dissipate.

After about the time it’d take another incense stick to burn out, Lu Xun slowly stood up and stretched his body.

“From now on, you’re the Great Cultivator Lu Xun.” He said to himself with a smile.

Next, it was time to see if there were any changes to the mysterious Five Elements Cultivation Method.
