This Sword Cultivator is Somewhat Dependable Chapter 1447 - 8: Dao Source Moves Only for Taoist Arts

The wind howled through the forest under the night sky, like a cry or a complaint, like sorrow and anger.

Lu Qingshan's figure swiftly moved through the forest, unable to help but shiver.

Although a Sword Cultivator's body is weak, that's only compared to cultivators of other schools. At least they are immune to cold and heat and undisturbed by poisons, so Lu Qingshan shouldn't feel the cold.

The root cause is the rules of this world being too formidable, not only sealing all mana but also greatly weakening the strong physique that cos from mana cleansing.

In this world, the first enemy Lu Qingshan encountered wasn't the so-called "natives," but the rules of the Heavenly Dao.

"It really is never-ending," Lu Qingshan said softly.

"However, it seems fortune has arrived." He inclined his ear to listen, faintly hearing rapid footsteps, very heavy.

Although he didn't know who it was, it should be humans.

It's perfect since he is still in a fog concerning this world and only knows about "Qin City." He could obtain so information from the newcors, at least know where to go.

Monts later, a group of soldiers wearing armor, holding arms, clearly well-trained, appeared before Lu Qingshan's eyes.

They surrounded him in a combined attack formation.

"Can anyone understand what I'm saying?" Lu Qingshan asked.

Coming to an unfamiliar world, the biggest fear is a language barrier.

"Who are you?" A hoarse voice suddenly sounded.

The soldiers imdiately respectfully made way in a path.

The voice ca from the end of the path.

Lu Qingshan followed the sound and looked along that path.

A burly man in bright silver armor with a long sword at his waist, like an iron tower, ca into sight.

"Who are you!" The burly man said coldly.

"My na is Lu Qingshan." Lu Qingshan was in a good mood because the language these natives used was the sa as his, so he planned to communicate well and understand this world.

The burly man frowned as he looked at Lu Qingshan. He always felt that Lu Qingshan seed a bit different from others, but he couldn't say where.

"Lu Qingshan, did you just see a teor fall from the sky?" The burly man's expression softened a little.

They were an army, not bandits or robbers, having no reason to harm an unard civilian, only to inquire.

A teor fell from the sky, landing in the forest outside their Yuan Nation's capital, stirring the king. He sent soldiers to find the heavenly teor.

It wasn't about superstition, just that teors capable of falling from the sky generally contain extrely precious and high-quality teoric iron, which can be used to forge divine weapons.

This is heaven's gift.

The burly man, along with his soldiers, quickly ca to search for this "heaven's gift."

However, he had only heard of extraterrestrial teors but never imagined this ti's extraterrestrial teor would be a living person standing in front of him.

"teor?" Lu Qingshan imdiately realized that the scene when he arrived in this world indeed looked like a teor falling.

But he didn't want to easily expose the identity of an outsider to avoid unnecessary trouble, so he simply shook his head calmly, "Didn't see it."

"If you didn't see it, then never mind..." the burly man responded, a glint of coldness flashing in his eyes.

Suddenly, a sword light rose from his waist, breaking through the air, shooting towards Lu Qingshan.

"Oh, a flying sword?!" Lu Qingshan was not flustered by the burly man's sudden attack but couldn't help but exclaim,

because he hadn't expected to see a flying sword in this mana-sealed world, feeling a bit nostalgic.

However, he soon shook his head, a bit disappointedly, "No, this isn't a flying sword, just object control."

There's a difference between sword control and object control, and a very large one.

Sword control requires a Sword Cultivator to infuse their vital essence into it, under such circumstances, the sword ceases to be an object and becos an extension of the body, a part of the Sword Cultivator.

Whereas the object in object control is rely a lifeless thing.

Evidently, this "flying sword" before him had no soul, belonging to object control, it just so happened that the object is a "sword."

Hoping to see a fellow cultivator in this world, Lu Qingshan was greatly disappointed.

However, to see a thod of object control, despite the weak power, in a world where mana is sealed, undoubtedly indicates this world hides various mysteries that require slow exploration.

The sword light was still whistling.

Lu Qingshan slightly narrowed his eyes. As the "flying sword" approached, its nacing cold aura ca, he subtly shifted his body, deftly dodging the sword's attack.

While sidestepping, Lu Qingshan extended his hand, aiming to catch the sword passing by his side as if pulling a roach out of the fire.

The next mont, amidst two light sounds of surprise, the "flying sword" fell into his hands.

Lu Qingshan's sound of surprise was because he found that although the "flying sword" approached ferociously, its power sharply declined to almost nothing once near him.

Evidently, this sword was not aid to kill him but just to test him.

The other sound of surprise ca from the burly man.

Seeing Lu Qingshan dodging his attack with such ease and even seizing the sword bare-handed was naturally surprising.

"Such a quick technique," the burly man couldn't help but praise.

The next mont, the burly man looked at Lu Qingshan, his face becoming solemn, asking, "Who are you, and what Taoist thod is that?"

"Taoist thod?" Lu Qingshan pondered in his heart; it seems the cultivation system of this world is this "Taoist thod"?

"I am Lu Qingshan, I said that already. But you haven't told your na all along." Lu Qingshan didn't mind the burly man's earlier test, just studied the sword in his hand with the corner of his eye while speaking.

The chilling cold aura was sharp, but upon closer look, it was rely made of cold iron, unable to compare to his life-bound sword or even match up to regular magic artifacts, lacking any spiritual nature.

Lu Qingshan couldn't help but curl his lips slightly.

"Yuan Nation, General Zhenning," the burly man said, enunciating each word.

"I suppose you aren't from Yuan Nation, are you?" General Zhenning continued.

Lu Qingshan nodded, "Indeed, I am not from Yuan Nation."

"Then why are you appearing within our Yuan Nation territory? The front lines are ablaze with warfare, and you have such martial skills; why not serve in battle?" General Zhenning's brows furrowed deeper.

"My origins are not your concern, General." Lu Qingshan smiled, tossing the sword back.

Though needing a sword now, this one truly didn't et his standards.

"It seems your direction of arrival was from there," Lu Qingshan pointed behind General Zhenning.

General Zhenning caught the sword tossed by Lu Qingshan. Upon hearing Lu Qingshan's question, he hesitated and finally nodded.

"Thank you." Without further ado, Lu Qingshan knew these soldiers were highly vigilant, making them unsuitable for probing information. With the path confird, he swiftly disappeared into the forest.

"General, are we just letting him go?" After Lu Qingshan left, a confidant among General Zhenning's soldiers couldn't help asking, "This person obviously seems suspicious."

"I can naturally see his abnormality. How could an ordinary person appear here, or bear such deanor?

The technique he displayed was more dangerous than any opponent I've seen in my life, but he harbored little hostility, making cautious action more appropriate than inviting unnecessary trouble." General Zhenning softly spoke, as if talking to himself.

Following the direction the soldiers ca from for about an hour, bright lights appeared in Lu Qingshan's sight, like a guiding star.

It was a brilliantly illuminated city.

Two large characters were inscribed on the city wall—Yuan Capital.

"Yuan Capital...this should be the capital of Yuan Nation." Lu Qingshan said, walking light-footedly towards the city gate of Yuan Capital.

The gate was naturally guarded by soldiers, but there was no strict inspection process. Lu Qingshan easily entered Yuan Capital.

....

Half an hour later, Lu Qingshan finally understood the general situation of this world and its na.

—Dao Source Realm!

The reason so is because the foundation of the cultivation system in this realm is sothing similar to cultivators' mana but fundantally different, called "Dao Source" by the beings of this realm.

As for Dao Source, it is invisible and intangible but exists everywhere, just like spiritual energy.

The existence of Dao Source allows beings in the Dao Source Realm to perform divine skills called "Taoist thods."

Just like how cultivators can cast spells through mana.

The difference is, besides casting spells, mana can also enable longevity and strength in cultivators, having various wondrous uses.

But Dao Source is different.

Dao Source has one and only one function: to perform Taoist thods.

Dao Source moves solely for the Taoist thod!
