36: Chapter 36 The Sword Immortal Appears, Heaven and Earth Rejoice!
Su Yi looked at the crowd, who all suddenly wanted to follow him to the Outer Sect to complete a mission, with a blank expression.
"What the f... what are you doing? You're all going? Is one grave really enough for you all to split?" Su Yi cursed inwardly.
Su Yi flatly refused their desire to follow him out to dig... to encounter an Opportunity.
Do they really think the old fogeys in deep seclusion are all Han Dynasty nobles, putting everything they own in their graves?
If it weren't for Ling Yao, that lucky charm, exerting her power and running into an old schemer hiding under a deep pool, digging up ten graves wouldn't necessarily yield that much!
Even when relying on that lucky charm to dig up a grave, Su Yi felt like he was suffering a huge loss when splitting it 50/50 with Ling Yao.
If a few more people came to split the loot, wouldn't my grave-digging be in vain?
Su Yi shook his head and said, "Tomorrow I just want to go to the Outer Sect to scout out the situation; I don't plan on taking any missions."
I'm just going out for an excursion, you guys wouldn't follow me, would you?
But the Prodigies sitting around the stone table stared at Su Yi with unwavering determination.
Although they didn't speak, their actions made it clear that no matter what, they were following Su Yi tomorrow.
Su Yi was broken on the spot and cursed loudly in his heart: "No way, do you guys think I'm a lucky charm? I'm just mooching off Opportunities..."
When he saw a loli's face among those determined expressions, Su Yi, who had originally planned to refuse outright, let his face collapse instantly.
Others were easy to deal with, but Su Yi had to weigh the consequences of offending a tsundere lucky charm for the future.
Just as Su Yi was thinking about how to refuse, he suddenly keenly sensed that the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi around him was starting to fluctuate.
Everyone present was a Prodigy, and they all instantly sensed that the calm Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi in the courtyard was suddenly rapidly draining away from around them!
Su Yi and the others looked in one direction simultaneously—that direction was exactly where Gu Wanquan's room was.
The surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was crazily converging toward Gu Wanquan's room, forming a mass of spiritual mist in a short time!
Seeing the sudden abnormality, Su Yi reacted immediately.
Alright, the true Prodigy of this version is finally making his entrance!
Su Yi stood up, his peach-blossom eyes narrowing slightly, looking at Gu Wanquan's room with interest.
In the storyline, the mythical sword technique realized by this white-clad Sword Immortal was one realm, one sword!
At the time of his death, he had only realized eight of the Nine Swords of the Sword Immortal, yet he was already peerless in the world.
A single sword strike against those of the same rank; no more than seven for those of a higher rank!
Gu Wanquan once had the glorious record of using seven swords to slay one Undergoing Tribulation at the Body Integration realm!
North and South, righteous and demonic, the world all called him: "The World's Number One Sword!"
If it weren't for the forced plot kill, where Gu Wanquan, at the Peak of Undergoing Tribulation level 89, was suppressed and killed by Yin Chaoge and Shi Buran together.
He died and his Dao vanished!
With a half-demon body, self-realizing the Sword Immortal's sword techniques, and possessing the White Python true form—with all these buffs stacked together...
If Gu Wanquan had really reached level 90 Mahayana, who in this world could kill him?
It must be that the game officials felt they had boasted too much, leading to a point where they couldn't wrap up the plot, so they could only force Gu Wanquan to go offline.
According to the official records of "immortal path," when Gu Wanquan first realized his sword, realizing the first move of the Nine Swords of the Sword Immortal while at Qi Refining...
He triggered the Heaven and Earth phenomenon of ten thousand long swords in the Outer Sect ringing in unison!
Sword Immortal emerges, Heaven and Earth celebrate!
This mesmerizing spectacle was not depicted by the game officials, leaving countless players with regrets.
Su Yi didn't expect that today he would become an eyewitness to this event!
Looking at the small room shrouded in a mass of spiritual mist, his heart stirred.
In his past life, he had also cultivated the Dao of the sword for ten years. Witnessing the demeanor of a Sword Immortal emerging today could be considered a stroke of fortune!
Su Yi also wanted to see just how strong Gu Wanquan was after realizing the first move of the Nine Swords of the Sword Immortal!
In the Outer Sect Competition a month from now, what are his odds of winning against Gu Wanquan?
Suddenly, a melodious sound of breathing came from the room shrouded in spiritual mist.
With every inhalation and exhalation, the spiritual mist formed by Spiritual Qi was completely absorbed into the room.
A brilliant sword light shone from within the room, illuminating the entire small courtyard almost as if it were broad daylight.
Then the light gradually faded, and the room returned to calm.
"It's gone? Just like that?"
To be honest, if this weren't cultivation, Su Yi would have thought Gu Wanquan was flashing a high-powered flashlight in his room.
This won't do, and he didn't hear any ten thousand swords ringing in unison either?
Just when Su Yi thought the game officials were exaggerating.
A streak of Sword Qi shot into the sky from the room!
Like a huge pillar of light, it soared straight into the clouds!
Under this sword light, even Su Yi, who was at the 8th Level of Qi Refining, felt breathless, as if his throat was being gripped.
The other Prodigies in the courtyard were even worse off; the weaker ones, Ling Yao and Xiao Tian, sat down on the ground with a thud.
The others were also pale and struggling to hold on.
Just a single streak of sword light was enough to suppress a group of Prodigies until they couldn't catch their breath!
As expected of the child of this version, the current biological son of the Heavenly Dao!
"Clatter!"
"Clatter! Clatter!"
Countless sounds of metal shaking rang out from all directions.
That was the resonance of all the long swords in the Outer Sect being triggered by the Sword Qi!
The sound was like a tidal wave, growing from small to large, from far to near.
It was as if countless voices were cheering, shouting, and looking up in awe!
Su Yi only felt as if countless invisible swords were bowing toward this place from all directions!
They were bowing to their "King"!
And those countless clanging sword rings were rejoicing and dancing for the arrival of their "King"!
Above the sky, the stars and moon were devoid of light; it was as if even the moon and stars in the sky were making way for this heaven-piercing Sword Qi.
The commotion caused by this sword light was simply too great, and the entire Outer Sect was in an uproar.
The sudden abnormality caused all the long swords in the Outer Sect to vibrate uncontrollably.
Such a strange occurrence had never happened in the Outer Sect before!
So much so that the Outer Sect Disciples who were in deep cultivation in their rooms were shocked and at a loss by this sudden event.
Facing their suddenly vibrating swords, it seemed to be foreshadowing something!
"What happened? What happened?"
"It seems like a Sword Cultivator has triggered a resonance with Heaven and Earth!"
"No way, buddy, this is the Outer Sect, where would a great cultivator come from?"
"Could it be that the Sword Sect has attacked the Luoxia Immortal Sect?"
"Quickly go to the Inner Sect and invite the Sect Elders!!!"
...
The Outer Sect was instantly in chaos, with countless Outer Sect Disciples in a mess.
This sword light came quickly and went quickly.
It felt like a long time had passed, but it was only in an instant!
The moment the sword light disappeared, the Heaven and Earth, which had originally been filled with ten thousand swords ringing in unison, returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.
The moonlight remained the same, and the stars were brilliant.
Only the Outer Sect Disciples, who were like exploded shells, were left asking around in confusion about what had happened.
Because it happened so suddenly, almost no one saw that streak of sword light.
Even if they saw the fleeting sword light, they just thought they were having hallucinations from day and night of arduous cultivation.
The Prodigies in the courtyard now had different expressions, facing Gu Wanquan, who had caused such a big commotion.
They couldn't even summon a single thought of resisting him!
Compared to that streak of sword light, they were as weak as fireflies.
Su Yi looked at Gu Wanquan's room with a pale face, forcing a smile to comfort himself:
"It's fine, didn't we not see any 'Sword Immortal emerges, Heaven and Earth celebrate'?"
The words to comfort himself had just welled up in his heart.
"Rumble!"
A rolling thunderclap suddenly rang out in the starry night sky!
Sword Immortal emerges, Heaven and Earth celebrate!
