In silence arises waves in the heart, in silence listens to the thunder.
This is the sword truth Lu Qingshan comprehended.
After this sword truth was realized, facing Li Qiubai’s two-finger Sword Gang, he was no longer entirely retreating.
But that is all there is.
To break Li Qiubai’s two fingers is still a far-off goal.
— The insight reached, is rely touching the threshold.
To break through and enter, a certain opportunity is needed.
The Sword Dao has always been a peak unfathomable, impossible to achieve in one leap.
Even with Lu Qingshan’s talent, it’s not doable to ascend and fully understand in five days.
Even an Immortal’s blessing cannot accomplish this, can it?
Lu Qingshan is not disappointed, nor anxious, maintaining a common heart.
— Though his cultivation stagnated because of the Ten Flowers Divine Gate, his Sword Dao never ceased.
Can plan progressively.
He is unhurried, yet the Sword Immortal’s mind ripples.
"The young man’s heart holds ambition, limitless future," he once murmured.
...
Amid the increasingly echoing tide, Lu Qingshan slightly lifted his eyes.
Arrived.
The towering city walls of the Sword Tomb are now visible.
Called Sword Tomb, yet actually a city, a riverside city by Lancang River, a solitary city.
Beicang City.
Positioned on the Lancang River’s banks, thus Beicang’s fog is dense, appearing hazy from afar, like a blessed land cave heaven, an immortal’s city.
What must co, will co eventually.
Sword Tomb Xu Su.
This is a na considered legendary.
Great Xia has three branch lines, the source being the top cultivation families where Ancestral Daoist Xia’s three Dao Companions belonged.
And the Xu Family Sword Tomb, is one among them.
Sword Tomb is called such for a history long-lasting from its origin.
The Xu family is a Body Cultivation family, following the purest Body Cultivation martial techniques.
Using Divine Martial Techniques combined with their formidable physique to train, combat power unparalleled.
Body Cultivators of martial techniques need countless actual battles to forge unparalleled martial techniques in the land.
Moreover, among cultivators, solely for martial techniques, Sword Cultivators were always recognized as first, the Xu Family was not convinced.
Balancing these two, the Xu Family head then made a decision, modeled after Martial Debate Hall’s Martial Hall, investing heavily to commission cultivators from Armor Pavilion to craft a batch of Beicang famous swords, opened Beicang City’s gates, broadly inviting world’s Sword Cultivators to challenge.
The rules were simple.
The challenger must bring a sword artifact to the gate.
If victorious, one could choose a legal sword from Beicang’s famous swords, of quality two ranks higher than their brought sword artifact, to take away.
If defeated, leave behind the sword artifact they carried.
This gave world’s Sword Cultivators an opportunity to win big with small.
If victorious, gained fa and a famous sword; thus Sword Cultivators were extrely happy, unprecedentedly bustling.
Yet without the Vajra drill, don’t pick up porcelain work.
The Xu Family dared such confidence, naturally held so depth.
Facing challenges from Sword Cultivators, Xu family cultivators often won ten lost one, more victories than defeats.
Through years long accumulated, swords within Xu family’s Beicang City increased more and more.
One, swords are useless to Body Cultivators, and to establish Beicang’s prestige, the Xu family directly built Sword Tomb out of a mountain in Beicang City, placing gained sword artifacts upon Sword Tomb.
Then boldly proclaid: All fad swords of the world have entered our territory.
Man fights for pride.
Because of this, challenging Sword Cultivators ca continuously uninterrupted.
Many Sword Cultivators took Beicang sword plucking as a mission, an honor, vowing to empty Sword Tomb’s swords.
However, Sword Tomb was far from empty, instead swords upon it increased further.
Over ti, Xu family’s Sword Tomb na eclipsed its original Beicang City na.
People mostly knew the forr, not the latter.
Calling Beicang City, often subsud by Sword Tomb.
Xu family also beca many Sword Cultivator’s thorn in their eyes.
For Xu Su.
This person, as the Xu family’s current head, a thousand years of calm while cultivating martial arts, unhurried, not rash, always patiently watching at Beicang City’s walls, coldly observing challenging Sword Cultivators’ action.
Only watched, only listened, never acted.
How can a golden scale be normal, it transforms into a dragon when wind and cloud et.
A thousand years later, Xu Su acted for the first ti, battling across levels, winning thoroughly.
Before then, for a thousand years, not one move was made, afterward for a thousand years, undefeated in hundreds of fights, fighting increasingly courageously.
In a thousand years, fought over a thousand tis, undefeated before halting again, secluding and not erging.
Another thousand years later when Xu Su reappeared, already atop Xu family’s head and Sword Tomb’s lord position.
And within the thousand years after the previous head’s demise, ascended straight to Ninth Realm, stepped further to advance as Martial Emperor, exceeding even previous family heads in power.
Body Cultivation to such, who wouldn’t admire such grandeur?
....
The large ship nearing Beicang City, Li Qiubai stood at its bow, arms crossed, leaning against the railing, gazing at the river, and looking afar at the massive city gates.
Speaking of, he does have a history and distance with Sword Tomb.
The Xu family, truly Qing King’s backing.
Back then Xia Xuanji was about to fall, during the three branches’ seizing of the throne, Qing King’s branch in both strength and montum was the greatest.
Qing King had unparalleled talent in front, Xu Su advancing as Martial Emperor behind, a future with two Martial Emperors wasn’t wishful thinking, everyone most favored Qing King’s succession.
Even later when Xia Xuanji designated Xia Zhao as successor, everyone still held to this view—After all, with Xia Zhao alone and weak, what could fight against Qing King’s branch?
As long as Xia Xuanji fell, the throne would still belong to who it should.
