He set down the phone and manifested the Greedy Wolf Star Lord shell in the real world.
In an instant, he felt a chill all over, he had manifested a completely naked shell.
Clang.
The shikigami Snow Woman, who had been cleaning the living room, suddenly flung her broom aside, covering her eyes with one hand and her mouth with the other, nearly letting out a shriek.
anwhile, the Valkyrie cooking in the kitchen heard the commotion and poked her head out. She glanced at her master, then quickly tossed aside her spatula and ran into the bedroom, returning with a set of shorts and a t-shirt to hand to Lin Xun.
“No need for the trouble.”
Lin Xun casually manifested a set of shrine attendant’s clothes and went to the bathroom.
When he looked into the mirror at the Greedy Wolf Star Lord, he nearly jumped out of his skin in shock.
The reflection looked exactly like his real body, with the only difference being the long hair cascading over the shoulders, everything else was as if it had been carved from the sa mold.
Lin Xun examined the Greedy Wolf Star Lord carefully for a long ti and couldn’t find a single point of difference.
Even the tiny mole on his arm was there on the Star Lord’s body.
“This is too absurd…99% compatibility is really this terrifying?”
Lin Xun closed his eyes and focused on sensing this unfamiliar yet familiar shell.
Inside the shell, there was an imnse, unfathomable power flowing along so particular route, circulating around the body before returning to the starting point, repeating over and over.
As the power pulsed, the shell felt pure and immaculate, and his mind was extraordinarily clear.
With a thought, his entire body lifted off the ground and began to hover in midair.
“Could this be true essence?”
Lin Xun narrowed his eyes, thinking of a certain flashy move.
He picked up his phone, opened the item tab, and tapped the newly obtained item.
[Do you wish to use Northern Dipper Heaven’s Sword Technique (Legendary-Grade Item)?]
[After using this item, the Desire-Bearing Greedy Wolf Star Lord shell will learn the skill of the sa na…]
[Learning in progress…]
[…]
[Learning complete!]
[This shell has learned Northern Dipper Heaven’s Sword Technique!]
[You have beco stronger!]
Lin Xun felt a vast and intricate mory flooding into his mind. His vision swayed slightly, and it felt as if sothing new had settled within the shell.
He manifested the legendary-grade weapon, Dragon Sword Masamune.
This fad blade, renowned throughout Sakura Falls, looked plain and unadorned. Its edge glead with a cold brilliance of extre sharpness, and a beautiful jade emitting a faint green glow was inlaid into the hilt.
Aside from the exceptional sharpness and the Dragon Jade, this legendary weapon had nothing particularly eye-catching about it.
He released his grip on the sword hilt, and Dragon Sword Masamune did not fall to the floor, it floated in midair under the command of his thoughts.
The blade swept back and forth in the cramped bathroom, flashing with cold, nacing arcs of light.
Lin Xun felt as if Dragon Sword Masamune had beco a new arm. Under the control of true essence, he could maneuver it as naturally as moving his own hand, the blade followed his will perfectly.
Amused, he began to get creative, even stepping onto the sword to ride it like a flying sword.
However, the bathroom was too small to maneuver properly. After playing around for a while, he rode the sword into the living room, darting back and forth past the gaping Snow Woman.
“Lord Dragonborn, what kind of magic is this…”
Lin Xun smiled faintly. As he continued to soar over the sofa on his sword, he casually replied, “This is a sword-controlling art unique to the Divine Realm. An immortal once descended to the mortal realm to teach this spell, but not in Sakura Falls, in the Vermilion Empire.”
Snow Woman nodded, half-understanding, silently marveling at the Divine Realm’s wondrous arts.
He played for quite so ti before finally stopping.
After a round of…testing, Lin Xun ca to a conclusion: although the Greedy Wolf Star Lord shell could also dual-wield, when it ca to controlling flying swords, it could only manipulate one at a ti.
Additionally, a weapon like the Ancient Dragonfang Greatclub couldn’t be controlled via sword flight, it had to be wielded manually to smash enemies. Only bladed weapons could be used for sword-controlling techniques.
Still, he devised a rather shaless strategy…
He could first have the Greedy Wolf Star Lord dual-wield swords, then levitate one blade with telekinesis. As soon as one hand was free, he could equip yet another weapon.
This ant that in a single attack, he could simultaneously unleash the special effects of three weapons at once, a truly unprecedented Three-Sword Immortal.
“I really am a genius!”
Lin Xun dismissed the shell manifestation. After having enough fun, it was ti to resu his cultivation.
He picked up his phone and continued progressing through the chapters.
Yesterday, he had used the Daimyo Clan Lord shell to plunder the entire Tenshukaku tower thoroughly and was confident he hadn’t missed anything.
Now, naturally, it was ti to leave this place and head for the next destination.
[You leave the Clan Lord’s Chamber and arrive at the Throne Hall of Treasures…]
In the Throne Hall of Treasures sat the High Throne, equivalent to the Dragon Throne of Sakura Falls. Normally, the Head of the Ogiwara Clan would convene many retainers here to issue all manner of decrees.
[You gaze upon the lavishly decorated throne, your heart surging with boundless ambition. You feel an urge to raise your army this instant, point your blade toward Sakura Falls, and seize the rank of Great General.]
[Because you are carrying the Ogiwara Clan Command Banner, you can convene military retainers in the Throne Hall of Treasures to train your own Red Armor Army…]
???
Lin Xun blinked. What was this situation?
He tried tapping ‘Convene Military Retainers.’
[You shout loudly, “Attend !”]
[Two samurai guards outside the Throne Hall of Treasures rush in. You order them to summon the military retainers to receive your commands.]
[The two samurai bow and stride away…]
[Before long, a number of armored military officers and a line of retainers in short court robes enter the hall, respectfully kneeling before the throne.]
[You may now issue a series of orders to the military retainers, such as ‘Recruit Troops,’ ‘Train,’ ‘Forge Weapons,’ and ‘Appoint Officers,’ to strengthen your item, the Ogiwara Clan Command Banner!]
[Please note: You cannot gain any other benefits through these military orders. All commands can only enhance your Red Armor Army…]
Imdiately, the Infernal Ga presented a huge list of military order options, each one designed to upgrade the Red Armor Army.
Lin Xun noticed that the ga displayed the Red Armor Army’s total strength as 1569/2000.
1569 was the current number of troops. After losing more than four hundred n during the Demon Invasion chapter, this was what remained, while two thousand was the maximum troop cap.
The Infernal Ga indicated that the cap could indeed be exceeded, but if it was, Kyoto would regard it as an unauthorized military expansion and suspect rebellion, creating a certain probability that the Great General would launch a punitive campaign…
“This…this ga can be played like this?”
Lin Xun stared, dumbfounded.
The Infernal Ga imposed all sorts of restrictions on narrative characters who possessed established power, preventing players from simply possessing them.
Compatibility was the most commonly used threshold.
Normally, even if an Apostle managed to kill the Ogiwara Clan Lord, they could not possess him to strengthen the Red Armor Army.
Only an Apostle like Lin Xun, with such overwhelming talent, could bypass this limitation and unlock the hidden army system.
In that mont, countless shaless Fourth Calamity exploits flooded his mind.
Lin Xun muttered to himself, “Hiss…maybe it’s ti to do sothing big?”
His gaze flickered as he pressed the ‘Recruit Troops’ order, dragging the recruitnt number all the way to the full two-thousand cap.
[At your command, the military retainers prostrate themselves, shouting “Long live the Ogiwara Clan! Long live the Clan Lord!”]
[Once all the retainers withdraw, a brilliant light suddenly bursts forth before the throne.]
[There, a massive page materializes out of thin air, floating in the air!]
[T/N: In many Chinese s, the Fourth Calamity is a term that refers to player characters (especially transmigrators or reincarnators) who wreak havoc in a ga world, often they are unaware that it’s a real world with real consequences. The idea is that the first three natural disasters are things like famine, war, and plague, while the fourth calamity is the arrival of players themselves, because they act unpredictably, exploit loopholes, and break the balance of the world. It’s a really cool genre of s.]
