Chapter 358: Encounter at the Sword Hall
With only eight strands of Wind and Thunder Sword Grass left, Lu Xuan planned to use the method of condensing ordinary second-grade sword grass to try to deduce the method of condensing third-grade Wind and Thunder Sword Grass.
Currently, all the Wind and Thunder Sword Grass originated from nourishment within the Profound Sword Sheath, making it impossible to obtain sword grass spirit seeds in bulk, and it was also difficult to explain their origins to the high-level members of the Sword Hall.
However, once he summarized the method of condensing Wind and Thunder Sword Grass, that particular problem could be solved.
Furthermore, the Profound Sword Sheath was currently mainly used to nourish fourth-grade Wind and Thunder Swords and a mysterious small green sword. It would be somewhat wasteful to only use it to improve the cultivation of such small-sized sword grass.
Taking the sword grass with him, he called a spirit crane and headed towards the Sword Hall.
After becoming a disciple of the Sword Hall, he learned the trick to pass through the sword array.
Lu Xuan calmly passed through the myriad fine sword qi like swimming fish and arrived at the Sword Hall.
Just as he was about to look for his acquaintance Shen Ye, suddenly, a cool and aloof female cultivator walked past him.
Lu Xuan's gaze swept over and immediately caught sight of a peculiar-shaped sword grass.
The sword grass differentiated from the bottom upwards, branching out into hundreds of fan-shaped sword qi. The sword qi seemed substantial, resembling a peacock spreading its tail feathers. Amidst its dazzling beauty, it concealed boundless killing intent.
"Peacock Sword Grass?"
Lu Xuan's expression froze, recalling the scene near the Lin Yang Fang Market's secret realm.
Looking up, a complex expression flashed in his eyes.
As the female cultivator walked farther away, he promptly caught up without hesitation.
"Sister, please wait."
Upon hearing Lu Xuan's voice, the female cultivator turned back, looking at Lu Xuan with a puzzled expression.
She had a beautiful appearance and a cold temperament, quietly exuding the aura of an orchid in a secluded valley.
She was none other than the female cultivator from the Sky Sword Sect who had once given Lu Xuan a Qingyun Token in the secret realm near the Lin Yang Fang Market.
"Is there something you need from me, junior brother?"
The female cultivator's voice was as clear and cold as a mountain spring.
"Sister, don't you remember me at all?"
Lu Xuan asked with a smile.
The female cultivator tilted her head in thought, then shook it in the end.
"Sorry, junior brother, you seem unfamiliar to me."
Lu Xuan didn't mind. It was normal for her not to remember him since they had only met briefly over a decade ago when he was just a Qi Refining wandering cultivator.
"More than ten years ago, in a secret realm near a wandering cultivator market, I had a brief encounter with sister. At that time, sister felt I had some talent in cultivating spiritual plants and left me a Qingyun Token, recommending me to join the Sky Sword Sect."
Lu Xuan explained slowly.
"You... Junior brother, are you the wandering cultivator who cultivated the sword grass back then?"
The cool female cultivator's mouth slightly opened, a hint of astonishment flashing in her eyes.
"Yes, I remember at that time sister had a peculiar sword grass in her hand. Shouldn't this be the one?"
Lu Xuan smiled and said.
"I didn't expect you to really join the Sky Sword Sect and advance to an inner disciple in just over a decade!"
Looking at Lu Xuan's attire as an inner disciple, the cool female cultivator felt emotional.
"I have to thank sister for leaving me that Qingyun Token back then, which made it easier for me to join the sect."Alll latest novels at novelhall.com
Lu Xuan expressed his sincere gratitude.
It was precisely because of the Qingyun Token given by the cool female cultivator that he firmly decided to join the Sky Sword Sect, saving him many unnecessary procedures during the registration and trial stages.
Lu Xuan thanked him with a grateful expression.
Returning to Su Manman's side, he explained the repair method.
Su Manman was also knowledgeable about sword grass and felt Lu Xuan's method was reliable.
Thus, she agreed without hesitation.
Lu Xuan then took out a few low-grade Peacock Sword Grass and prepared to plant them around the damaged Peacock Sword Grass.
But at this moment, suddenly, a violent commotion erupted outside the Sword Hall.
Lu Xuan and Su Manman were slightly startled and quickly went outside to take a look.
They saw a large group of disciples gathered around a manor in the distance, and there were also several Foundation Establishment elders nearby.
"What happened?"
Su Manman asked a nearby disciple.
"Senior sister, I heard that the Supreme Elder of the Sky Sword Sect has arrived, and there seems to be a major event happening in the manor. It's said that it concerns the entire sect."
The disciple said with a hint of excitement.
Su Manman's expression changed slightly.
She whispered to Lu Xuan, "Junior brother Lu, let's go and take a look."
Lu Xuan nodded in agreement.
Following the crowd, they quickly arrived at the manor.
At the entrance of the manor, there were two rows of Foundation Establishment elders guarding it, and in the center stood an old man in white robes with a majestic aura.
He was the Supreme Elder of the Sky Sword Sect, one of the top experts in the sect.
Beside him stood several other elders, including the Sect Master and the Elders.
The atmosphere was tense, and everyone's expressions were grave.
"What's going on? Why did the Supreme Elder suddenly return to the sect?"
Su Manman asked in a low voice.
"I don't know. Let's wait and see."
Lu Xuan also felt a sense of unease in his heart.
At this moment, the Supreme Elder spoke with a solemn voice, "Fellow disciples, the reason I have returned to the sect is to inform you all of a grave matter. Recently, there have been reports of a powerful demonic invasion in the neighboring sects. It seems that the demons are planning to launch a large-scale attack on the human realm."
"According to the intelligence we have received, the demonic army is led by a powerful demon lord at the Nascent Soul stage. If we don't take immediate action, the consequences will be disastrous."
"The Sect Master and I have already discussed and decided to mobilize all the disciples of the Sky Sword Sect to join forces with the other sects to resist the demonic invasion."
"As disciples of the Sky Sword Sect, it is our duty to protect the human realm and uphold justice. I hope that all of you will be able to rise to the occasion and fight bravely against the demons!"
As soon as the Supreme Elder's words fell, the entire manor erupted into a commotion.
The disciples of the Sky Sword Sect were filled with righteous indignation, and their eyes burned with determination.
They were ready to fight to the death against the demonic invasion and defend their homeland.
Lu Xuan and Su Manman looked at each other, their hearts heavy with the weight of the impending battle.
As disciples of the Sky Sword Sect, they had a responsibility to protect the human realm and uphold justice.
They would fight side by side with their fellow disciples and do everything in their power to repel the demonic invasion.
The fate of the human realm hung in the balance, and only by standing together could they hope to emerge victorious against the forces of darkness.
