Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 1226: Brother Yun Has Arrived...
Previously on Checking in for 100,000 Years...
"Mm."
The spectral image of the Supreme Ancestor looked upon the crowd with an authoritative gaze.
He glanced at everyone, smiled, and said, "The Daluo Sword Fruit is a mystical treasure of the world. Although it is about to mature, it still lacks a bit of fortune..."
Upon hearing about the Daluo Sword Fruit, everyone’s breathing became somewhat rapid.
Rooted deep within the Secret Realm and personally tended by the Supreme Elder, the Daluo Sword Tree is said to have borne a total of nine fruits.
If assumptions are not wrong, each sect branch has a chance to obtain one Daluo Sword Fruit.
However, the Supreme Ancestor has previously spoken that the Nine Meridians will contend based on their Sword Dao prowess.
The Ninth Spiritual Vein, being weak in recent years, lacks competitiveness, thus there’s a possibility one meridian will obtain two Daluo Sword Fruits.
This possibility is considerable.
"Supreme Ancestor, the Daluo Sword Fruit is maturing for the first time. What further fortune does it require? Could it be related to that little girl from some remote place?"
The middle-aged man scratched his head and asked.
"Perhaps. This little girl has cultivated the Killing Sword Technique, showing promising strength in Sword Dao. If her Sword Intent is infused into the Sword Stone to strengthen the Sword Qi, this will complete My Great Luo Sword Palace’s Nine Meridian Sword Qi’s cycle, facilitating the full maturation of the nine Daluo Sword Fruits..."
The Supreme Ancestor smiled lightly, his haggard face bearing a look of assured victory.
The Daluo Sword Fruit is extremely supreme, suitable only for cultivators of the God Venerable Realm. Although he himself couldn’t partake in it, he was immensely happy seeing the overall strength of the Daluo Sword Palace grow.
And this little girl from a remote area was found due to his order.
For the branch of Daluo Sword Palace that was adrift elsewhere, he occasionally paid attention.
Upon discovering Liu Yiyi’s astounding Sword Dao talent and her mastery in Killing Sword Technique, he had long been piqued by a certain thought.
Now that the Daluo Sword Fruit is about to mature, it coincidentally requires Liu Yiyi’s assistance.
There is no alternative.
Who let the disciples of the Ninth Spiritual Vein be so disappointing currently?
"We understand, Ancestor."
The crowd replied in unison.
"After a month, once the Sword Qi of the Ninth Vein is full, the Daluo Sword Fruit can be entirely matured..."
Thinking of the grand scene at that moment, the Supreme Ancestor chuckled softly before disappearing.
Hoo!
The crowd got up, all letting out a sigh of relief, their faces filled with excitement.
The Daluo Sword Fruit is about to fully mature in a month.
...
The Ninth Spiritual Vein of the Daluo Sword Palace is situated on the majestic Green Luo Mountain, hence this branch is also called the Green Luo Branch.
Currently, the Green Luo Branch has only a few thousand disciples, considerably fewer compared to the tens of thousands in other branches.
The reason for the small number of people.
Is because the Killing Sword Technique of the Ninth Spiritual Vein is extremely difficult to cultivate.
Additionally, tens of thousands of years ago, the then Ninth Spiritual Vein Head Teacher did some disgraceful deeds and was expelled from the Daluo Sword Palace.
This incident brought more disgrace to the Ninth Spiritual Vein.
Thus fewer people joined this branch.
Even now.
The Sword Stone on Green Luo Mountain emits Sword Qi with only a diameter of three feet.
Swish swish!
Beside the Sword Stone.
Stood a stunning red-clothed woman wielding a sword with one hand, continuously striking the Sword Intent towards the Sword Stone.
Infusing Sword Intent—
This was one of Liu Yiyi’s mandatory daily tasks since arriving at the Daluo Sword Palace.
Beside Liu Yiyi, stood a green-clothed woman, face charming, with a cultivation base also at the First Layer of the God Sovereign Realm.
The green-clothed woman looked at Liu Yiyi and smiled, "Sister Liu, your Killing Sword Technique cultivation is quite impressive. Your talent in Sword Dao truly is extraordinary..."
"It’s alright."
Liu Yiyi smiled slightly.
"Sister Liu, although you might not be an official disciple of the Daluo Sword Palace, the sect sending for you might be preparing for you to partake in the Daluo Sword Fruit competition this time..."
The green-clothed woman said with a smile, a hint of jealousy flashing in her eyes.
"Hmm."
Liu Yiyi nodded, her expression calm as she continued to infuse Sword Intent into the Sword Stone.
The Daluo Sword Fruit is crucial for her future Sword Dao achievements, she must obtain it.
Liu Yiyi was very confident.
She had now cultivated Killing Sword Technique and the Binary Sword Chant taught by Brother Yun, her accomplishments in Sword Dao would certainly not lag behind any prodigy of the Daluo Sword Palace.
"A wild little girl from a remote area with sheer dumb luck, dreaming of partaking in the Daluo Sword Fruit competition, you must be dreaming!"
A mocking voice was heard.
From behind a giant stone, a few young men slowly emerged.
The majority of these youths had a cultivation base at the God Venerable Realm, the highest reaching the Third Layer of God-Honored Realm.
"Greetings, Senior Brother Chu!"
The green-clothed woman’s face changed slightly when she saw the youth at the forefront with a Third Layer cultivation base, and she respectfully greeted him.
Liu Yiyi paused her sword, turned around.
She wore an indifferent expression.
"Though Daluo Region’s Spiritual Energy isn’t on par with Tianluo Domain, it’s not quite the remote hinterland as you claim..."
With a smirk on her face, Liu Yiyi said coldly, "Daluo Sword Palace had its reasons for fetching me, far beyond the comprehension of a disciple like you!"
"Oh wow, so damn arrogant, indeed a thorny little flower!"
The Third Layer youth laughed heartily.
"No need to laugh, if due to your words I were to leave Green Luo Mountain, don’t you believe the Palace Master of Daluo Sword Palace—
would severely punish you?"
Liu Yiyi retorted.
She had been at Daluo Sword Palace for a while now, daily infusing Sword Intent into the Sword Stone.
The Sword Qi on the Sword Stone continued to grow.
Though she didn’t fully understand this task, Liu Yiyi knew her actions were what Daluo Sword Palace needed.
"Nonsense!"
A Second Layer youth could not help but jump up and curse.
"Simply nonsense, people from such a place lack manners..."
Another youth shook his head in mockery.
"What are you boys babbling about, my people of Daluo Region aren’t someone you can provoke?"
A man’s ethereal voice descended from the misty void.
"Who is there!"
The youths were shocked, quickly looking up into the sky.
Ye Yun slowly descended.
During the descent, his gaze collided with Liu Yiyi’s gaze midair.
Invisible sparks flew.
Even without speaking.
In this moment, both he and she had immense understanding, a tacit connection.
Brother Yun has arrived...
Liu Yiyi closed her lips in a smile, her brows curved like a crescent moon, smiling sweetly.
With Brother Yun present, it would be harder for Daluo Sword Palace to bully her.
"Who are you?"
The green-clothed woman saw Ye Yun land beside Liu Yiyi, her face cautious as she asked.
"I’m also from Jianyun Sect, a fellow disciple with Liu Yiyi!"
Ye Yun smiled lightly.
Fellow disciple?
The green-dressed woman and several youths looked at each other in bewilderment, their expressions unsettled and doubtful.
"Sister, it appears we are not welcome here, perhaps we should leave Daluo Sword Palace..."
Ye Yun smiled at Liu Yiyi, then turned and left, his figure slowly rising into the sky.
Liu Yiyi followed behind.
"Wait!"
A gray-robed elderly suddenly emerged from the void.
"Greetings, Ninth Master!"
The green-clothed woman and the other youths saw this gray-robed elderly and immediately greeted respectfully.
The gray-robed elderly was the current Ninth Spiritual Vein Head Teacher.
