Chapter 752: Chapter 45: Departing with the Sword (Request for Subscription)
Therefore, ti was pressing.
Xia Daoyun also realized the key point, “I will take you both back to Yun Pass, which can save you a lot of ti and prevent any accidents from happening to you.”
If Lu Qingshan were here, he would first transform into Qing Ge, fearing he wouldn’t even be able to enter Heavenly Mountain.
So he could only complete the transformation outside the battlefield near Yun Pass.
That would an Lin Yao would have to make a trip to Yun Pass with him.
“Yao’er, this will be tough for you,” Shui Yue Pavilion Master said to Lin Yao, her tone laden with deeper aning.
Lin Yao just obediently perford a curtsy.
…
…..…
Yun Pass.
A day had passed, they had left in a hurry, and now they had returned just as quickly.
After getting back to Yun Pass, Lu Qingshan still had a very important matter to attend to.
Beacon Fire Hall.
This place was a key location in Yun Pass, not only was it constantly updating the battle reports of Yun Pass, but it also housed the Spirit Material Treasury, where human cultivators could exchange battle rits for spirit materials.
Lu Qingshan walked into a side hall.
The treasury was heavily guarded by restrictive spells, tight formations, and a keeper to watch over it.
“I’d like to exchange for spirit crystals, please,” Lu Qingshan presented his identity token, stating his needs.
The keeper didn’t think much of it as he took Lu Qingshan’s token, but upon seeing the words ‘Sword Sect’ on the token, his deanor unconsciously beca more serious—the disciples of the Sword Sect were always esteed within Yun Pass.
It turned out to be a disciple of the Sword Sect, though he seed sowhat unfamiliar.
The identity information on the identity token was confidential; apart from the owner, others could not easily pry into it.
So the keeper could only speculate in his mind.
“How many spirit crystals do you need to exchange?” he asked while thinking.
“Eight hundred and fifty,” replied Lu Qingshan.
He initially had eight thousand and fifty battle rits, and killing Qing Ge had awarded him another four hundred and sixty-four battle rits, totaling eight thousand five hundred and fourteen.
One spirit crystal required ten battle rits.
“Alright, eight hundred and fifty…” the keeper started to repeat before suddenly correcting himself, eyes widening, “Eight hundred… fifty spirit crystals?! This will require over eight thousand battle rits, are you sure you haven’t made a mistake?”
“No mistake, just retrieve the spirit crystals. There’s no need to worry about a deficit in battle rits,” Lu Qingshan said helplessly.
Still sowhat incredulous, the keeper took Lu Qingshan’s identity token and walked into the treasury.
The whole process of exchanging battle rits for treasures was sowhat like ‘swiping a card to shop’ in his forr life; Lu Qingshan’s identity token was like a ‘credit card.’ How many battle rits were actually within the token was not for the keeper to know; he was just responsible for fetching the items and ‘swiping the card.’
After a while, the keeper returned with eight hundred and fifty spirit crystals.
Lu Qingshan weighed them in his hand to ensure the quantity was correct, then left under the keeper’s respectful gaze—any cultivator with such a substantial amount of battle rits was without exception a hero of the Human Race, worthy of his respect.
Lu Qingshan had a simple reason for exchanging for these spirit crystals.
Once inside the Abyss, everything would be up to him.
Experience Points were his most important support.
However, with ti pressing, he could only first exchange for the spirit crystals; there wasn’t even ti to absorb them and convert them into Experience Points before he had to hastily depart.
After leaving the Beacon Fire Hall, Xia Daoyun took Lu Qingshan and Lin Yao back to Liuxu Pavilion once more.
She had so things to explain to Lu Qingshan in private.
“You are aware yourself that, although theoretically your plan is feasible, in reality, you will face too many problems,” Xia Daoyun said straightforwardly.
The truth was indeed so; his plan seed traceable on the surface, but on closer scrutiny, it was full of loopholes.
The most significant reason was the lack of sufficient intelligence.
Not to ntion the specifics of the Demon Race within the Abyss, he wasn’t familiar with various customs and habits of the War Demon Clan, and there was a high chance he’d reveal himself through so inadvertent words or actions once inside the Abyss.
He wasn’t even clear about Qing Ge’s actual identity.
Moreover, there was a very practical issue; he was a Sword Cultivator under the human cultivation system, while Qing Ge was a War Demon.
Even if he possessed the strength of a Low-Ranking Demon General, the techniques of the two systems were entirely different.
Could the Iron Sand Palm possibly pass for the One-Yang Finger?
In short, the risks were extrely high.
“Master,” said Lu Qingshan calmly, “Even if there’s no certainty, for her sake, I must face the difficulty head-on. So in such a situation, overthinking is pointless.”
“The boat will straighten itself out when it gets to the bridge; let’s just do it and see,” he continued with firm determination in his tone.
“Here are the records about the War Demon Clan that we at Yun Pass have collected over years of confrontation. They should be helpful to you,” Xia Daoyun had anticipated Lu Qingshan’s reaction and silently pushed a stack of jade slips toward him.
Lu Qingshan was delighted inside and quickly took the jade slips, “Thank you, Master.”
The information contained in these jade slips was mostly confidential, not ant for soone at the Void Refining cultivation level like Lu Qingshan, both in terms of sentint and reason.
But Xia Daoyun wouldn’t allow herself to be bound by such rules and regulations.
Lu Qingshan extended his Divine Sense into the jade slips, swiftly scanning the information within to gain a general impression before putting them away.
Then, his expression turned very serious, “Master, there’s sothing else, sothing I’ve yet to ntion to you.”
Xia Daoyun was taken aback, “What is it? Speak freely.”
A white ring appeared in Lu Qingshan’s hand.
This was one of the two rings that Gu Yiyi had kept from Qing Ge.
