Xiuxian: But It's Not a Game

Chapter 106 Blind Date, Sword Palace Secrets

This was completely unexpected for Su Yu; she never imagined that someone would arrange a blind date for her.

This is my sister-in-law's kind offer; I can't refuse.

There's no need to dress up. Although there are plenty of beautiful but attribute-less fashion items on the other side, none of them compare to a seventh-grade magic robe.

After quickly washing his face and feeling refreshed, he took to the air and flew towards the coordinates given to him by his second brother.

Although he couldn't refuse, Su Yu really hadn't considered finding a girlfriend right now; it was too much trouble.

Right now, my main focus is on cultivation. Putting everything else aside, I need to at least overcome the Heavenly Tribulation and advance to become a Loose Immortal before I'll even consider finding a woman.

After all, the gap between a Loose Immortal and an Earth Immortal is huge. Reaching level 200 and undergoing the Earth Immortal Tribulation in a hundred years is considered very fast. Accumulating two or three hundred years of experience is quite normal. Staying single for such a long time is not a good thing. Finding a girlfriend or even getting married is normal.

Those below the level of Loose Immortal are out of the question.

Of course, a direct refusal wouldn't work, nor could we deliberately cause trouble to discourage the girl, since it was the sister-in-law's good intention.

He planned to meet normally and then tell her frankly that he wasn't interested.

A few minutes later, Su Yu took to the air and left Golden Dragon Island, flying towards the coordinates.

Three hours later, he appeared in the sky above the sea area where the coordinates were located. Looking down, he saw a giant wooden ship floating on the vast sea. The surrounding seawater was like a boiling oil pot, and countless monsters were attracted by the demon-attracting incense and gathered around the warship.

The Divine Thunder Tower continued its bombardment, and numerous players, either in flying boats or suspended in the air, continuously activated their magical artifacts to blast the sea.

"Brother, I'm here."

A beam of light shone from the flying boat, and the next second it traversed several kilometers to appear in front of Su Yu, revealing the figure of the second brother.

However, he keenly realized that this was not his second brother's true form, but rather an illusion projected by a thousand-mile projection—a result of his Qi Refining Technique reaching an extremely high level and thus generating Daoist techniques.

Su Huan waved to him and said:

"You come with me."

"You're lucky. Most of the unmarried girls without boyfriends in the group have come. Take a look around and tell me which ones you like, and I'll arrange a team for you."

Su Yu quickly waved her hand and said:
"Second brother, there's no need for that. I'm busy cultivating right now and have no time for romance."

"Just because I don't have time now doesn't mean I won't have time later. Let's get to know each other first, chat when we have time, and maybe we'll hit it off."

"If you think they are not strong enough, don't worry. There are several girls in our group who are very talented and strong enough to keep up with you. As the saying goes, men and women working together makes the work easier, and it will be easier to go out and train together."

Su Yu was speechless.

"Let's proceed according to the original plan."

Su Yu followed her second brother's projection onto the giant wooden ship, which led him to the bow deck. He immediately saw his sister-in-law discussing something with her second brother and several other people who appeared to be high-ranking members of the team.

A group of young women were gathered not far from them, chattering and playing around.

Upon seeing the man brought by their second brother, all the women fell silent and looked over. Some stared at him with curiosity, while others blushed and hid behind their sisters to secretly observe him.

He glanced around and his first impressions were very high; several of them were exceptionally beautiful and had excellent temperament.

He glanced at it briefly, then looked away, stepped forward, and bowed:
"Second brother, sister-in-law."

Several senior team members looked surprised, but when they looked at Su Yu again, they smiled kindly.

To Su Yu's relief, his second sister-in-law did not take him on a blind date directly, but instead introduced him to the team's senior executives and let him do as he pleased.

"Don't rush. Show your skills and abilities during the team activities these next few days. That way, your sister-in-law will be more confident when introducing you to the girls."

I'm not in a hurry at all.
Su Yu breathed a sigh of relief and came to the edge of the giant wooden divine boat. Below were densely packed monsters attracted by the demon-attracting incense. He directly reached out and gathered a ball of blazing white lightning and threw it down. Instantly, a dense barrage of experience points flooded the screen.

Immediately afterwards, he summoned the newly acquired Feng Shui Vajra Wheel and threw it out. The golden wheel quickly expanded to a diameter of 100 meters and slashed into the sea, causing several bursts of damage of more than 20,000 each, directly cutting a sea serpent and several deep-sea fish in two.

"change!"

With a thought, the Wind and Fire Vajra Wheel spun rapidly among the monsters, its sharp edges unleashing a burst of wind and fire power that extended a hundred meters away, instantly creating a dense ring of damage.

When the Feng Shui Vajra Wheel rotates, it deals 30% of the spell damage as cutting damage per rotation, and consumes 500 mana per second.

Su Yu's current spell damage is 6000, so 30% would be 1800.

However, it should be noted that the damage per revolution is 1800, not per second.

The Feng Shui Vajra Wheel spins rapidly, ten times per second, dealing up to 18000 damage per second. Monsters below level 60 are sliced ​​into a pile of sashimi in a second.

With a thought, he activated the Vajra Wheel, weaving back and forth through the monsters and frantically cutting them.

"The power is not bad!"

It's even stronger than I imagined; a pure killing weapon.

After scrolling for a while, his second brother suddenly came to his side and asked:

"You must be practicing the Dongxuan Linggan True Scripture of the Xuankong Mountain lineage, right?"

"Yes."

"What are you good at? Taoist magic, swordsmanship, or lightning magic?"

"fencing!"

"Then why don't you show it?"

"Why don't we test the power of our new magic weapon?"

"Have you finished testing now?"

"I've finished the test."

"Then show me your swordsmanship." Su Yu nodded, opened his mouth and spat out a thunderous roar as his twin swords flew out and plunged into the sea.

With a thought, he wielded his twin swords, which swept across the sea like lightning, instantly displaying a line of damage numbers.

With a flick of his finger, two sword beams encircled a level 90+ monster, twisting and turning to form a sword energy tornado, with dense damage rising in a continuous wave.

Su Huan raised an eyebrow, his expression shifting from normal to surprised, until he was shocked when he split off ten sword energies and blasted them into the sea fish's body along the wound.

He slammed his hand hard on the gunwale and said:

"sure!"

"Young man, your swordsmanship talent is truly amazing!"

"The sword energy and thunderous sound of consummate skill, the sword condensation into threads with some progress, and the differentiation of sword light at the beginning of the path."

"At your age, you already possess such a level of swordsmanship; you have a bright future ahead of you!"

Su Huan expressed his heartfelt feelings and said very seriously:
"Since you have such a talent for swordsmanship, you should specialize in the way of the sword from now on."

"You only have two sixth-tier flying swords, right? With such amazing swordsmanship talent, there's no need to forge that Wind and Fire Fan. Have you considered selling the materials and exchanging them for two seventh-tier flying swords?"

Su Yu shook his head and said:
"My two flying swords are a set of treasures, with the ability to combine into one. Unless I get a complete set of seventh-tier flying swords that can also combine into one, or two eighth-tier flying swords, there is no need to replace them."

"Yes, indeed."

Su Huan nodded, then changed the subject and asked:
What sword technique are you practicing now?

"Taibai Sword Manual".

"What grade?"

"Advanced sword technique."

"It's too low. Didn't you change to a basic sword technique of at least the advanced level within the sect?"

“My master can help me get a high-level sword technique, but he thinks that if we’re going to change it, we should change it to something better right away. So he gave me a sword talisman and told me to go to the Sword Palace to take a look.”

"Do you have a sword talisman to enter the Sword Palace?"

"Yes."

Su Huan looked surprised:
"Your master is pretty amazing, he even managed to get his hands on this thing!"

Is this rare?

“It’s not just rare, it’s extremely rare.”

"Elaborate."

Su Huan asked:

Do you know anything about the Sword Palace?

"My master said that it seems to be a force that gathers sword cultivators from overseas. It has many sword inheritances. As long as you can pass the Sword Palace test, you can obtain a sword inheritance, even a supreme-level sword inheritance."

"anything else?"

That's all I know.

Su Huan was at a loss for words.

It's unreliable, but they managed to get their hands on a treasure like a sword talisman.

To say it's reliable is an understatement; this introduction is far too casual.

“Your master is not entirely right. The Sword Palace is indeed a power where sword cultivators gather, and it contains many sword inheritances. Anyone who obtains the sword talisman can enter the Sword Palace to receive the inheritance. However, your master probably does not know how to receive the inheritance, what conditions and restrictions are required, or the difficulty of the inheritance.”

Su Yu immediately asked:

"Second brother, do you know?"

Su Huan nodded and smiled:
“No ordinary rogue immortals would know these secrets, but I do know them. I have a friend who once entered the Sword Palace and knows the specifics.”

"To be precise, this Sword Palace is an ancient heritage, a legacy left by a sword immortal in ancient times. The Sword Palace itself is a celestial treasure. The many sword cultivators gathered in the Sword Palace now are not the true masters of the Sword Palace, but sword enthusiasts who have stayed in the Sword Palace because they are recognized by the Sword Palace's spirit."

“Every cultivator has one chance in their lifetime to enter the Sword Palace to undergo the inheritance test and receive rewards based on the test results. There are three levels in total.”

"The highest level is naturally the supreme inheritance of the Sword Palace, which is the inheritance of the Sword Palace Master, but that is too difficult, and no one has been able to achieve it to this day."

"Next on the list are those supreme inheritances that are not held by the Sword Palace Master, as well as a few tenth-order immortal swords. Whether it is a supreme-order sword technique or a tenth-order immortal sword, obtaining them is enough to dominate the world. I have heard of someone obtaining them since records began."

"Next are the ordinary rewards, including various inheritances of the exquisite level and below the sect-level, as well as eighth and ninth-tier immortal swords. Obtaining any one of them is enough to greatly enhance one's strength, and these appear frequently."

"However, the most common ones are those who fail the Sword Palace test and return home with only a seventh-tier flying sword, accounting for 99% of the examinees."

"The success rate is so low?"

"of course."

Su Yu remained silent, reflecting on his own swordsmanship talent and level of mastery.
Among his peers in the Sword Realm, he is definitely in the top tier. He has comprehended the differentiation of sword light in less than two years of cultivation. If he is not strong, who is?

But in terms of swordsmanship talent
He has absolutely no talent for swordsmanship; he was purely pushed to that level by cheating.

The sword path inheritance of an ancient sword immortal must have very high requirements for sword talent and sword heart. He was not a proper sword immortal at all, and his sword heart was not pure at all. The probability of him obtaining a high-grade inheritance was almost impossible.

But the second brother had no idea; he was excitedly saying:

“Young man, your swordsmanship talent is too strong. My friend didn’t comprehend sword light differentiation when he was your age. If you enter the Sword Palace, passing the ordinary test will be no problem at all, and you even have a chance to inherit a superior-grade sword.”

"A supreme-level swordsmanship inheritance!"
