There’s Something Wrong With This Account - Chapter 300:
Chapter 300: 300, Natural Sword Embryo vs Natural Sword Embryo (Third update, asking for monthly votes!)
“He’s broken through the second stage as well,” Ping Shanhai commented, squinting slightly.
He did it in one breath, once again only taking a moment!
Ping Shanhai and Qian Zhengyi exchanged glances before simultaneously looking over at their own disciple, Ye Sui’an.
When Ye Sui’an was breaking through, there was no speed like Lu Xun. They feared Ye Sui’an would be too shocked to hear this news, and that the comparison could cause a social disruption, jeopardizing the stability of his Sword Heart.
However, Ye Sui’an appeared calm, showing complete certainty in his eyes and murmuring, “I thought as much.”
He was not at all surprised.
If Lu Xun had performed poorly, he might have been surprised…
Earlier, when Lu Xun broke through the first stage, the reason he was shocked was because he didn’t expect Elder Lu would break through in this way.
What shocked him was the process, not the result.
Shouldn’t it be perfectly normal for Elder Lu to be stronger than me?
He had sincerely admitted this long ago, so his Sword Heart was naturally unharmed.
An outstanding World Protagonist, a leader among the younger generation, had become a chaser.
And Lu Xun was that light.
After breaking the second stage, Lu Xun was transported to the third stage.
Based on memories from his previous life, the vast majority of ill-informed players failed at the second stage, with only a select few making it to this third stage.
Moreover, unlike the previous stages, the difficulty of this stage was determined by a sword cultivator’s realm in Sword Dao.
The deeper your comprehension of the Sword Dao, the bigger the challenge within this stage.
Weak players faced a simple mode, while stronger ones faced a hell mode.
Legend has it that the Sword Mountain Elder gained enlightenment of Sword Intent while observing the moon at night. Hence, his Sword Intent is related to the moon.
Humans have their joys and sorrows, partings and reunions, and the moon has cycles of clarity and obscurity.
There is only one sword in this stage, but it comes in three tiers.
New Moon.
Half Moon.
Full Moon.
These respectively correspond to the initial understanding of Sword Intent, adequate Sword Intent, and Great Perfection of Sword Intent.
As for what the Great Perfection of Sword Intent entails, no one really knows.
Specifically, up to this day with the Moon in the Well, no one has faced the Full Moon at this stage.
The Moon in the Well dungeon corresponds to levels 20-30.
For Sword Cultivators below the Third Realm, understanding Sword Intent is already difficult enough, let alone mastering it.
At the stage of great perfection for Sword Intent?
That’s just unheard of.
To be precise, if the memory of the Sect is correct, even the Sword Mountain Elder, an Innate Sword Body, only reached the Great Perfection of Sword Intent after advancing to the Third Realm.
Therefore, in the eyes of the people, the Full Moon Sword in this stage might as well not exist.
That sword will probably never be seen.
Some “language representatives” believed that the Elder did this to encourage future generations to surpass him.
What a compassionate intention!
Upon entering the third stage, Lu Xun calmly awaited what was to come.
He knew what he was about to face.
As expected, a wave of Sword Intent rushed towards him at an extremely fast speed after a minute.
His first impression of it was – pure and bright!
Unlike the foggy Mist Sword, it was too bright!
Battling it was like vying for splendor with the bright moon.
The beauty of Lu Xun’s Mist Sword lay in its mood.
And the beauty of the Sword Mountain Elder’s Moon Sword lay in visual impact!
“Full Moon!” Ping Shanhai and Qian Zhengyi were in sync as they exclaimed outside the stage.
This time, even Ye Sui’an’s face showed a shocked expression.
The disciples stationed by the two major Sword Sects were so stunned they couldn’t even speak.
Only a few clueless players who didn’t understand this stage were ignorant of the concept of Full Moon.
But that didn’t stop them from filling in the blanks.
No one had expected that Lu Xun, with his cultivation base at the second realm, had reached the boundary of Great Perfection of Sword Intent!
Such progress had surpassed that of the original Sword Mountain Elder.
This felt strange to them, as disciples of Elder.
In essence, they saw a young man, an outsider, surpass the person they revered most…
Everyone was at a loss for words.
This was beyond their comprehension, it was a Sword Intent battle between two Innate Sword Bodies!
A Sword Body battle spanning thousands of years!
As expected, only an Innate Sword Embryo could overcome another Innate Sword Embryo.
But to what extent could this Lu Xun go?
Facing the present “Full Moon”, Lu Xun knew he couldn’t hold back.
He had to go all out, otherwise, it would be a suicide mission.
How much of his sword intent power did the Sword Mountain Elder retain when he left it behind? Nobody knew.
But Lu Xun deeply knew that his opponent was a real Innate Sword Embryo, while he was just a fake one.
From this perspective, he had no confidence.
He observed this sword intent to see if he could glean some basic information.
Soon enough, two prompts popped up before his eyes.
[Sword Intent: Full Moon.]
[Degree: Full Force.]
“The Sword Mountain Elder didn’t even hold back when he left this ‘Full Moon’ sword intent?” Lu Xun, for a moment, was at a loss for words.
Under normal circumstances, he should have held back.
Although the so-called ‘full force’ was merely the Sword Mountain Elder suppressing his own cultivation base level to match yours, it was not the same.
A Level 29 Sword Mountain Elder, plus the Great Perfection of Sword Intent, could he be the same as a regular Level 29 Sword Cultivator?
Remember, the Sword Mountain Elder is an Innate Sword Embryo!
The difference is like that between a minor monster and a Boss.
If it’s such a challenge, not to mention the other weaklings, even Ye Sui’an shouldn’t be able to pass.
Even if he himself is an Innate Sword Body, it wouldn’t be possible.
So it can be inferred that the Sword Mountain Elder probably held back when setting up the challenge for the “Crescent Moon” and the “Half Moon”.
He went easy on them to let the disciples pass a few stages!
You can’t always crush their confidence!
Ye Sui’an faced the “Half Moon”, and he successfully overcame it.
However, this “Full Moon” clearly does not have the intention to hold back.
Upon deeper thought, the approach of the Sword Mountain Elder seems reasonable.
If there is a junior who has surpassed me and reached the Great Perfection of Sword Intent before me, then he naturally deserves my all-out sword!
If not, this wouldn’t be called a trial.
More accurately, this is no longer a full-out sword, but rather an over-performing one.
After all, the Sword Mountain Elder hadn’t reached Great Perfection when he was in the second realm…
Arriving at this thought, Lu Xun felt speechless.
He was also somewhat unsure in his heart.
“It’s all up to you now.” Lu Xun said inwardly to the little sword in his Sword Heart.
The little sword performed outstandingly in his previous duel with Mao Nanbei.
The sword cuts the flesh, the heart cuts the soul!
This “Heart Sword” has the ability to directly attack the Sword Heart and Sword Intent!
Other people are empty-handed in their consciousness space.
In his consciousness space, Lu Xun has a weapon…
Moreover, it is an invisible sword, he doesn’t have to worry about it being exposed.
This is currently Lu Xun’s biggest reliance!
Under his command, the “Heart Sword” infused one wave of peculiar power after another into the “Mist Sword”.
Then, Lu Xun witnessed a scene that was both miraculous and familiar.
Just like when he was practicing with Mao Nanbei, he now saw one strand after another on this “Full Moon Sword Intent”.
“Cut them off!” was Lu Xun’s only thought.
The “Mist Sword” that had fused with the “Heart Sword” met the “Full Moon” head-on.
The “Full Moon” hung high in the sky while the “Mist Sword” rose up!
Lu Xun came into contact with those fine lines!
“Cut!”
This was the first time he had thrown himself wholeheartedly into an attack after making a breakthrough.
A sense of exhilaration filled his heart at that moment!
The two swords clashed.
The next instant, the bright and clear light disappeared, plunging the place back into darkness.
Because…
The moon was covered by clouds!
