Borrowing a sword

Chapter 330 Experience Points: Ten Million!

Xu Ziqing walked through the air to the very center of the spear formation, and then suddenly swung his sword forward.

The spear's energy was instantly annihilated, but the overwhelming malevolent and evil aura continued to surge forward.

Their appearance is somewhat ferocious.

Sometimes it resembles a ferocious beast, sometimes a vengeful ghost.
The ancestral emperor held the long spear diagonally in his hand, pressing it against his back.

He knew in his heart that, at most, his opponent could swing a similar sword again.

"Even a body cultivator's body can't handle it!"

"His physical body's recovery speed can't keep up with the destructive speed brought about by using the evil sword!"

"If it were Chu Huaixu's physical body, perhaps a few more sword strikes could be delivered."

Upon realizing this, the Ancestral Emperor felt even more annoyed and angry.

He swung his spear forward again, and the purple moon phantom behind him merged into his body the instant he swung the spear.

In addition, he also activated the power attached to his divine sense.

An item was taken from the storage ring worn on the left hand.

That was a drop of water.

A drop of crystal-clear water.

Among the group of cultivators on the high platform, Nangong Yue couldn't help but exclaim, "This is... the Holy Water!"

This water is hailed as the purest, clearest, and most sacred thing in the world.

It is one of the most top-grade natural treasures.

It can be used for crafting weapons, making talismans, and setting up formations.
In addition, it has some restraint over evil spirits, which are considered the most malevolent forces in the universe.

Unfortunately, the malevolent energy contained within the bronze sword was simply too overwhelming.

And the most sacred water in the world is extremely rare.

The moment the tip of Emperor Moon's spear pierced the drop of water, it enveloped it within the spear's aura.

A strong gust of wind swept over the entire area.

Wherever this breeze went, everyone felt refreshed and invigorated.

Water cascades appeared on the gun's body.

The waterfall and the purple flames intersected, yet neither was affected.

However, the evil energy was dispersed and some of it dissipated.

Chu Huaixu stood below watching when a thought suddenly struck him.

"I can't extract the contents of the Demon Pill because I can't break it open."

"Can this sacred water dissolve the evil pill?"

"This kind of sacred object seems to only be effective against evil things, and it won't destroy the contents of the evil pill," Chu Huaixu thought to himself.

He felt that this was also a possibility.

Such rare and precious materials are truly rare in the world.

He wasn't even sure if the Taoist sect's treasure pavilion had any prepared.

After all, even the Ancestral Emperor only took out one drop!
An overwhelming sense of anger and rage appeared on Xu Ziqing's face.

The evil sword undoubtedly harbored a deep aversion to this sacred water.

The black sword energy instantly became even more intense, and the bronze sword even emitted a sword cry.

The turbulent airflow made it impossible for people to see what was happening high in the sky.

I couldn't even read the Chu Huai Preface clearly.

But in the end, all that was seen was a sword and a spear descending from the sky, their tips piercing into the arena.

Amidst the turbulent airflow that obscured the view, Xu Ziqing's body was the first to fall from the height.

With a wave of his hand, Jiang Zhi lifted the unconscious boy from the high platform.

When it became faintly visible high in the sky, everyone could see that "Qin Xuanxiao" was still standing in the air.

This seems to indicate the outcome of the battle.

The entire audience erupted in thunderous cheers.

But these sounds immediately stopped.

Because of the Crown Prince's unsteady figure, he immediately fell from the height as well.

The semi-finals of the East-West Continental Tournament have thus come to an end.

Prince Rui's heir, Qin Xuanxiao, advanced to the final competition with a slight advantage.

After the event ended, the great cultivators from the Eastern Continent Mirror Kingdom gathered in Jiang Zhi's courtyard instead of returning home.

“What’s the point of Yue Kingdom winning this competition?” Situ Cheng said bluntly from the start.

Mei Chuxue immediately chimed in, "It's indeed not good for the overall situation; in fact, it's already broken the rules."

Chu Yinyin immediately chimed in, "That's right!"

“Originally, we could have turned a blind eye to Qin Xuanxiao’s reliance on the spiritual seed.”

"After all, that little girl is special. The spiritual power she uses can be brought into the primordial spiritual realm."

"But this time, the entrance to the second level of the Origin Spirit Realm is still within the territory of my Mirror Kingdom."

"The national fortune that the Ancestral Emperor used is simply unusable and cannot be brought in!"

Everyone nodded after hearing this.

According to the unspoken rules of the past few centuries, the comprehensive strength valued by the four major sects and the Yue Kingdom royal family actually refers only to the power that can be used within the [Origin Spirit Realm].

Today, Qin Xuanxiao won thanks to the ancestral emperor's proxy and numerous cheat codes, but so what?
Even after entering the Origin Spirit Realm, he's not as good as Xu Ziqing, who is alone with his sword!

Jiang Zhi and the Sword Master, among others, remained silent.

Just as everyone was having a heated discussion, someone arrived uninvited.

Xiahou Yue, the Protector of the Nation, arrived here, clad in golden armor that made him appear even more imposing. "Gentlemen," he said, "I have come here with only a message."

"The controversy you hold in your hearts is something that His Majesty and I are well aware of."

"But that person said that he has his own way of bringing the nation's fortune into the [Origin Spirit Realm]."

"After all, you should also know that the so-called national fortune of the Moon Kingdom is actually gathered because of him."

"With that said, I'll take my leave."

After saying this, Xiahou Yue transformed into a streak of light and flew towards the direction of the imperial palace.

Situ Cheng and the others who remained in the courtyard couldn't help but let out a series of cold snorts.

"They say it's possible to bring it in, but is that the same as being in the capital today, with a constant supply of good fortune?" Situ Cheng said irritably.

But they didn't give a definite answer, so no one could give him one.

Finally, the middle-aged scholar spoke up and asked, "Senior Jiang, what are the Daoist sect's plans?"

Now, Xu Ziqing has lost unfairly, and Chu Huaixu is about to participate in the battle for the championship.

This matter mainly depends on the attitude of the Taoist sect.

Jiang Zhi, Nangong Yue, and Chu Yinyin exchanged a glance and then spoke:

"The competition is not over yet; we'll discuss everything after it's finished."

"The position of leader is merely something displayed openly for everyone to see."

"In the end, who will enter the Origin Spirit Realm is something that our Mirror Kingdom and Moon Kingdom can still discuss properly!" His gaze sharpened.

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded slightly.

But even the [Tianluo] from Luotian Valley couldn't help but say at this moment:
"However, judging from the current situation, I don't see how much chance Chu Huaixu has of winning."

"This problem of the nation's fortune is far too thorny."

If the opponent were only Qin Xuanxiao, this situation wouldn't have occurred.

The fortune he can attract is quite limited.

If the Ancestral Emperor were to directly step in and fight on his behalf, the power of fortune he could attract would be terrifying!

Jiang Zhi said, "I just went to see that kid. He seems pretty carefree. It seems that he doesn't feel any pressure after witnessing everything today."

"Therefore, I think Chu Huaixu will win."

When everyone heard this, they looked at each other.

Don't you trust your grand-disciple a little too much?
Little did he know that Jiang Zhi had been proven wrong so many times that he had become quite experienced.

In the small courtyard where the true disciples of the Taoist sect reside, Xiao Xu is still unconscious.

Han Shuangjiang watched over them from the side, while Chu Huaixu sat on a futon with his eyes closed.

Currently, he still has over five million free experience points on his character panel.

In addition, there is 1 free special attribute point that has not yet been added.

There is also one Earth-level treasure chest inside the backpack.

Following his previous approach, he directly added that 1 point of special attribute to his physique.

"[Physical Fitness 9]! That's awesome!" he boasted to himself.

Chu Huaixu himself did not expect that he would be able to raise his physique to 9 points in the third realm.

It's just one step away from the legendary Physique 10.

"I wonder if the rewards for the second level of the [Origin Spirit Realm] will include attribute points?"

"If I could, I could reach Physique 10 as long as I win the fight!"

Of course, the prerequisite for all of this is to win the East-West Continental Championship first.

Chu Huaixu sat on the futon and began to clench his fists tightly, feeling the power of his physical body.

"That's terrifying! This time it's improved by almost 50%!"

"Would this last point directly double the increase?"

He felt that this was highly likely!
More importantly, with a Physique level of 10 as a foundation, his future path of body refinement will be smoother, and the physical strength boost brought about by the improvement in cultivation will be even greater.

"If I don't become the number one body cultivator in the world, I'll be doing a disservice to this talent!" Chu Huaixu thought to himself.

If we disregard the Dao Ancestor in this world, it seems that in the past thousand years, there has never been a body cultivator at the ninth realm.

Those at the seventh or eighth level are extremely rare.

The path of body refinement, and the desire to join the ranks of great cultivators, is extremely difficult.

Who would have thought that once he chose the [Sword Refining Technique] from a pile of cultivation methods, he would become connected with this cultivation system?

The saying "Even dogs don't practice body training" has been replaced by "Physical training! It's all about body training!"

At this moment, Chu Huaixu thought for a moment and then simply opened the Earth-level treasure chest as well.

What he received was somewhat unexpected.

"Damn it! There's a 666 million experience point gift pack!"

"They actually managed to pull this thing out!" Chu Huaixu was truly impressed.

Getting experience points from treasure chests isn't very worthwhile overall.

Because the system will give you a suitable number based on your overall situation.

That's a huge sum of money right now!
But looking to the future, a few million doesn't seem like much.

"But looking at those 1180 million experience points on the panel, just looking at them still feels pretty good," he thought to himself.

This huge sum of money will allow his overall combat strength to leap forward once again!
Thinking of this, he suddenly paused for a moment, remembering something.

Previously, when he entered the Dao Ancestor's Secret Realm, he had already made a three-point agreement with himself.

From now on, for every 1000 million experience points accumulated, 100 million will be taken out and used for a single learning session.
