Chapter 192: [The Mysterious Black Mark] (Soliciting monthly ticket)
Translator: 549690339
Today, Lu Xun and the others finally settled down in Boundless Mountain.
Since they were already here, it would be very impolite to just take a Spirit Crow and leave immediately.
Feng Wuming originally planned to send two Outer Sect Disciples to serve everyone, but was politely declined by Lu Xun.
People from the Demon Sect were not accustomed to such privileges, they preferred doing everything themselves.
Instead, Ye Sui’an shamelessly moved into the same house, and after tasting the food prepared by Lu Xun, he was astounded!
The path Ye Sui’an sought did not involve worldly desires, he was accustomed to fasting and rarely ate.
But watching Lu Xun chopping meat and cooking, rolling up his sleeves to scoop water, everything seemed utterly flawless, as if he was expressing some profound philosophy. Ye Sui’an was almost fascinated.
After dinner, when everyone was done digesting their food, Ye Sui’an stood up and bowed to Lu Xun, wanting to spar him through a sword duel.
“Finally, he is acting normal!” Lu Xun thought in his heart.
Isn’t this more appropriate? As a Sword Cultivator, dueling should be the priority. Why is he always staring at me?
He had already anticipated a friendly spar, however, Ye Sui’an’s attitude was really good. It did appear he was seeking advice from someone more experienced.
Lu Xun naturally would not refuse.
It’s better if this gets a lot of attention, if everyone knows they are sparring, the news will spread across the world, back to the Demon Sect, and would enhance his “Reputation Value”.
Moreover, Little Chan was watching from the sidelines!
As your teacher, I will show you by defeating him one more time, letting you know, he’s not good enough!
Even if Ye Sui’an is persistent, it won’t matter as the initial impression is already low.
In the snowy field, Lu Xun, dressed in a black robe, with his sword sheath in hand, looked impressive.
Compared to Ye Sui’an in his green robe, Lu Xun had a better aura.
After they greeted each other, Ye Sui’an suppressed his cultivation to the fourth layer of the Initial Realm, then drew his “Moon Emperor”.
In the dark night, sword qi was like a bright moon rising, quite impressive indeed.
Lu Xun did not deliberately urge the little sword in his Sword Heart, but displayed “Pink Ink”.
The stream of ink-colored qi circulated around him, deflecting one wave of sword qi after another. Lu Xun just stood there quietly, as wave after wave of Ye Sui’an’s sword qi attacked, but were unable to break through the ink-colored qi stream.
“Pink Ink”, although only of Superior Blue Level, had cost quite a bit of experience points to level up. It had a high level of defense, not weaker than any average Purple Level technique.
The main thing was — it looked good!
Especially in the snow, the ink-colored qi stream seemed even more artistic.
Lu Xun spread his hands, and wave after wave of sword qi began to form out of thin air.
Ink qi like water, sword qi like a stream!
He began to slowly step towards Ye Sui’an one step at a time. The sword qi from the “Moon Emperor” could not stop him.
The impact of the sword qi on the ink-colored qi created a huge noise, but the effect was not good.
He simply walked up to Ye Sui’an and then stopped.
The result had been decided!
If Ye Sui’an had not suppressed his cultivation base, with his power at the second realm, Lu Xun might not have been his match.
But at the same level, and because of his Non-Swordbearer characteristic, Lu Xun felt like he was bullying the other.
“Thank you for your kindness.” Lu Xun replied with a smile.
“Thank Elder Lu for his guidance again.” Ye Sui’an respectfully replied.
Once again, he realized the gap between him and Elder Lu, and sensed that this gap was widening!
The only thing he regretted was that Elder Lu did not use that move: “Point Out” this time.
After the duel, Lu Xun was pleased with the look of admiration in his disciple’s eyes.
“Give up, Scum Man Ye! You will definitely have no chance in this life!” Lu Xun thought to himself.
Nothing else happened that night, Lu Xun just felt that the Spirit Crows in Boundless Mountain were a bit noisy.
Fortunately, as a Cultivator, he could seal his five senses at will, forcibly making himself deaf, which did not affect his rest.
Moreover, the new generation of Disciples in Boundless Mountain did not have World Protagonist, so it was also a little less fun.
In “Heavenly Dust”, there are five known World Protagonists.
The four major righteous factions accounted for 3 spots, One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain split one Ye Sui’an, with the other two factions taking one each.
Meanwhile, The Demon Sect occupied two spots among the three major demonic gates, one was Lin Chan of the Demon Sect, and the other was in Spring and Autumn Forest.
Hence, it was evident that Boundless Mountain was truly pitiful.
However, some players uncovered some hidden plots that pointed towards Boundless Mountain, as if there was always a shadow lurking in the unknown corners of Boundless Mountain.
Many players speculated that there might be another world protagonist from Boundless Mountain hiding in the shadows!
Of course, this was only a guess, even the poker-faced players from Boundless Mountain were clueless themselves.
After the break of dawn, having finished the porridge cooked by Lin Chan, Lu Xun decided to return to the sect.
He had spent too much time on this journey, and the public test was drawing near.
Based on his travel speed, the public test might commence even before he could reach the Demon Sect.
Before Saying goodbye, the aloof Feng Wuming pointed at the hundreds of spirit crows on Boundless Mountain, saying, “Friend Lu, feel free to pick one.”
Seeing Mao Nanbei eagerly itching for a try, Lu Xun said, “Fourth Senior Sister, why don’t you pick?”
Not only did this make Mao Nanbei happy, but Lu Xun could also conveniently blame her if something went wrong later.
If the boss was dissatisfied with the spirit crow they brought back, Mao Nanbei would help share the responsibility.
Back in their mountain, the most cherished ones were her and Little Chan, so with her to share the burden, Lu Xun was very relieved.
Mao Nanbei was jumping around like an unleashed horse among the flock of crows.
After observing all the crows, as Lu Xun expected, she picked the one that looked juicy but not oily.
It must be said – Mao Nanbei’s knack for choosing food ingredients was indeed innate!
However, they couldn’t eat this spirit crow before they returned to the mountain, they wouldn’t want to bring back just bones, would they?
Of course, if the boss agreed to eating it after they returned to the mountains, Lu Xun wouldn’t mind tasting the so-called Golden Crow bloodline either.
It had been said before that spirit crows look dim-witted, just like Psyducks.
The one Mao Nanbei held was especially dull!
Lu Xun suspected that while this spirit crow seemed plump, it was probably the stupidest one among the flock!
Even when caught by Mao Nanbei, it did not struggle but instead stared blankly ahead as if in a daze.
This caused Feng Wuming and the rest to feel a bit embarrassed, and they suggested, “Or… perhaps we should choose a livelier one?”
“No, no, it’s fine!” Lu Xun waved his hand with a smile, thinking that most likely it would be eaten once they returned. Whether it was lively or not didn’t matter. If anything, a more animated one would cause more trouble when they had to kill it.
After another round of polite words, Lu Xun and his company formally left Boundless Mountain.
Among the lower-tier skills he’d learned, there was a low-level Taming Beast Technique, which was useless for spirit beasts but very effective for poultry and livestock.
For breeders, it was simply divine!
Lu Xun decided to try using it on this spirit crow… and surprisingly, it did have some effect!
This… this is a descendant of the Golden Crow?
Who on earth came up with this legend! Does the Golden Crow know about this?
At this moment, the spirit crow was standing on a paper crane, looking as dull as a domestic old hen.
The paper crane flew quickly through the sky, and after an hour or two, it arrived near the Ghost’s Grief.
Just then, the chains binding the body on the floating platform inside the Ghost’s Grief began to tremble violently.
The body covered in a mantle didn’t move, the trembling of the chains seemed to stem from some mysterious and formidable force!
A ray of black light emerged from within the mantle, it came from the body’s forehead, where a black mark was flashing a glow!
From afar, it looked incredibly like a tiny black feather!
The black light became brighter and brighter.

Simultaneously, the five chains trembled increasingly fiercely.
The next moment…
The chains broke.
