After giving instructions to Little Chan to stop by the room after midnight, Lu Xun retired to his quarters to cultivate.

First, he practiced the Nameless Technique, savoring the wave of pain before undertaking a session of the Sword Cultivating Technique himself.

The tiny sword within his Sword Heart was nourished, yet his body’s strength remained the same as before, sticking at a progress bar of [Intermediate Spiritual Sword: 3%].

“According to the gentleman’s explanation, each time I temper my body with the Sword Cultivating Technique, my Sword Heart can absorb it, but my body can’t.”

“But this energy hasn’t dissipated; it’s accumulated somewhere, and it needs the assistance of the Natural Sword Embryo.”

To put it simply, it’s like the Natural Sword Embryo is extremely sensitive, like a microscope, capable of detecting and utilizing this energy, something Lu Xun could not do.

Regardless, transforming into a [Magical Weapon Cultivator] had greatly enhanced Lu Xun’s overall strength.

“Aside from those with a Natural Sword Embryo or high cultivation base sword cultivators, no one will realize I’m actually a sword. They’ll only think I’m immensely powerful!”

With this thought, Lu Xun became less averse to his identity as a [Sword Person].

There are no absolute optimists in this world, only those who can see things with perspective.

I am my own player.

Originally, [Pink Ink] was a rather nice defensive skill. Lu Xun felt that it was more than enough.

Now that his bodily strength had greatly improved, it was like having two layers of shields, providing him a large sense of security.

Moreover, being a sword surely increased his attack power as well.

The intensity of his Sword Qi had greatly surpassed his past ability!

“Senior Brother really did give me quite a gift, although I had no choice but to accept it,” Lu Xun thought to himself.

It was getting late, Lu Xun lay on his bed, closed his eyes, and began the daily whipping of sword intent.

Every time was like being in a dream. Surrounded by darkness, he couldn’t see a thing.

The Sword Intent attacked but he couldn’t see it. It felt like he was stuck in chaos, and he could only bluntly withstand the Sword Intent, then slowly figure it out and digest it.

What’s the difference between the Second Senior Sister’s Enveloped in Sword Intent and the Elder Brother’s Enveloped in Sword Intent?

The most obvious feeling Lu Xun had was that the Second Senior Sister’s Sword Intent always targets the same critical spot and can’t be avoided.

The Elder Brother’s however was more elusive, but every attack seemed honest and aboveboard!

Over these many days, Lu Xun experienced various ways to die; beheading, stinging through the heart, waist chopping and a lot more.

After the 30-day Enveloped in Sword Intent, Lu Xun felt he could compile a set of “Various Ways to Die by Sword.”

As time passed by the second, Lu Xun lying on the bed suddenly shivered, and a cold sweat broke out all over him.

He “died” again.

He opened his eyes, took a deep breath, and steadied his emotions.

Indeed, people fear death. Even though he experienced death every day in his dreams, he still wasn’t used to it.

Therefore, even though he had both the advantages of being both a player and NPC, he never felt like he was playing a game.

This had long since been more than a game, it was his life.

It wasn’t midnight yet, Lin Chan was already waiting outside Lu Xun’s door.

As a disciple, she naturally waited outside.

Once her master called, she could enter the room.

When Lin Chan arrived outside, Lu Xun already heard her footsteps. He got up, opened the door, and said, “Come in.”

Little Chan, with her head lowered, walked into Lu Xun’s room. Lu Xun pointed to a wooden stool and said, “Sit.”

Saying this, he also sat down.

“Little Chan, I called you here because I want you to assist me in my cultivation,” Lu Xun said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Lin Chan no longer bowed her head, raised her eyes towards Lu Xun, and her eyes were bright.

She was grateful to her master and always wanted to contribute somehow. She was willing to do anything her master commanded.

Yet, it seemed like her master didn’t need her help with anything. Rather, whenever there was something good, her master always thought of her first.

Thus, when she heard that she could assist her master in his cultivation, she was thrilled.

“Are you this happy?” Lu Xun, looking at her bright eyes, asked.

“Yes!” Lin Chan loudly answered in her heart, then vigorously nodded her head.

Lu Xun had a gentle smile on his face, and in a soft voice said, “Little Chan, you will cast the Sword Cultivating Technique on me soon, just like how you normally temper the Partridge Sky, no need to hold back.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Chan widened her eyes in disbelief.

That was the Sword Cultivating Technique, how could it be used on a person?

But she never doubted her master’s words.

Plus, she often felt her master seemed like a sword… Could it be that her master really…could it really…become a sword?

Why am I involuntarily a bit stirred up?

“Miscreant! Miscreant! Miscreant!” Lin Chan scolded herself in her heart.

“I know you are surprised, but you don’t need to think too much, just consider this as your master researching a Body Refining Method and needing your help,” Lu Xun said.

Though he has already accepted his own status, he can’t bring himself to tell his darling disciple: “Truth be told, your master is actually a Sword Person!”

He can’t handle that …

That’s f**king shameful!

Hearing this, Lin Chan nodded, then wrote on Lu Xun’s palm: “Master, what should I pay attention to when I’m visualizing the Sword Cultivating Technique?”

“My Little Chan is so clever, you have asked the right thing,” Lu Xun praised, lightly scratching her little nose with his finger.

Lin Chan’s face turned slightly red, but her heart jumped with joy after receiving her master’s praise.

Lu Xun continued, “When you employ the Sword Cultivating Technique, you don’t need to provide the nourishment with your power; instead, your task is to unlock the power hidden within the master’s body, let it nourish mine.”

He wasn’t sure if Lin Chan could understand, so he asked, “Do you roughly understand?”

Lin Chan nodded, though she wasn’t certain if she could handle it, after all, this was different from the Sword Cultivating Technique she practiced on usual days.

“Don’t stress, just give it a try, don’t worry, it won’t hurt your master’s body,” Lu Xun said. Hoping Lin Chan wouldn’t be intimidated, he fabricated reassurance.

Lin Chan nodded, calmed herself down, took a deep breath, held it, her chest puffed up, and then she exhaled, writing on Lu Xun’s palm:

“Master, I am ready.”

Lu Xun nodded and sat cross-legged on the bed, then said to her, “Come on.”

Lin Chan obediently took her place opposite him, and they both closed their eyes, pressing their palms together.

Lu Xun’s palm was warm, Lin Chan’s small hand was cool.

“Begin,” said Lu Xun.

Lin Chan immediately started to use the Sword Cultivating Technique and to her astonishment, she easily discovered the power her master had mentioned!

They dispersed throughout her master’s body, not concealed in the slightest. In her eyes, it seemed as obvious as fireflies in the night, it was hard not to see them.

“So, it’s this straightforward!” Lin Chan reassured herself, no longer feeling nervous.

She was puzzled why her master asked for her assistance in such an unchallenging task, but she never questioned Lu Xun. Moreover, the fact that she could assist her master brought her great joy.

It seems now that whether it’s using nature’s spiritual energy to use the Sword Cultivating Technique or using the energy inside her master’s body, the disparity isn’t massive. She found it rather easy and deft.

With his eyes tightly shut, Lu Xun could feel the intense pain all over his body, much more painful than when he practiced the Nameless Technique.

If practicing the Nameless Technique was likened to the agonizing cramps women get, then what he was experiencing now was … double the cramps.

But compared to the day the eldest brother came, this pain was nothing.

After all, that day, the eldest brother had consumed all the power that Lu Xun had accumulated over many years!

“It seems viable to allow Little Chan to help me cultivate!” Lu Xun could detect the subtle changes in his body, thus he convinced himself in his heart.

Now, he just needed to endure the pain.

Half an hour had passed just like that. Lu Xun had to bear the pain for a full hour.

Luckily, he had extraordinary talent in this aspect. Right now, he even felt his body loosened as if he just had an excellent massage.

Awesome!

After they finished cultivating, the master and disciple put down their connected palms.

Lin Chan clasped both her hands together, feeling the residual warmth on her palm from her master.

Looking at her, Lu Xun smiled and said, “You did great, this cultivation session was successful!”

He had just checked his character panel, and progress had risen to [Intermediate Spiritual Sword: 3.27%].

The increase wasn’t significant, but at least he saw progress.

If this continues daily and accumulates over a year, he should be able to progress, not a big deal.

If he could boost the Skill Level of the Sword Cultivating Technique within the year, that would be even faster!

“Eldest brother, out!”

“From now on, I will rely on Little Chan to sustain me!” Lu Xun declared in his heart.

Hearing Lu Xun’s words, Lin Chan immediately beamed, her heart full of happiness.

But soon, she looked hesitant about saying something.

Lu Xun opened his palm and laughed, “Write down what you want to say.”

Lin Chan penned each word in his palm: “Master, do you need my assistance in cultivation every day?”

After writing, she raised her head and met Lu Xun’s gaze.

In her eyes, Lu Xun saw an infinite amount of anticipation.
