Chapter 356 - 306: Level 14 Shu Mountain 3000 Swords
With a fortune of one hundred thousand Low-grade Law Stones in his possession, Xu Qing could practice the Three Thousand Swords of Shushan one trillion times a day at his current cultivation speed.
At the same time, Xu Qing also needed ten Low-grade Law Stones every day.
Shu Mountain gave every Outer Disciple one hundred Low-grade Law Stones each month, but this was only enough to last Xu Qing for ten days.
Now, with an additional one hundred thousand Low-grade Law Stones, his calculations showed that he would need to use an extra two hundred of his own stones each month.
Therefore, the one hundred thousand Low-grade Law Stones could sustain him for five hundred months. That was forty-one years, almost forty-two, which was enough for Xu Qing to cultivate for a very long time.
’Three Thousand Swords of Shushan.’
SHING!
The ring of a sword echoed.
Chixia Peak.
Xu Qing practiced the Three Thousand Swords of Shushan day and night. Through every season, time flew by—day after day, month after month, year after year...
「Meanwhile.」
Just as Xu Fengyun had said, the Corpse Ghost Sect had lost a True Disciple. The sect’s Elders discovered it immediately and began trying to investigate.
However, Xu Fengyun and his companions had erased all traces, making the investigation difficult. With almost no progress, the matter was reported to Han Lingzi, the Sect Leader of the Corpse Ghost Sect.
Upon learning of the situation, Han Lingzi directly used a Great Divine Technique to reverse time at the scene of the incident, allowing him to witness the truth of what had happened.
"Shu Mountain!"
HUMMM!
Han Lingzi’s expression was grim. He withdrew his divine technique, and the flow of time around him returned to normal. Taking a deep breath, he said in a low voice, "Shi Qiusan died at the hands of a Shushan Outer Disciple."
"Shu... Shu Mountain..."
A few of the Corpse Ghost Sect’s Elders looked fearful.
If it had been any other sect, the Corpse Ghost Sect could have stormed their gates and made a scene. But the perpetrator was a disciple of Shu Mountain.
Then...
Fear.
Deep, profound fear.
After all, Shu Mountain was one of the Nine Great Sacred Lands of the Middle Earth Great Tang.
It was far too terrifying and powerful.
"It’s true that we dare not offend Shu Mountain."
Han Lingzi took a deep breath and said gravely, "However, if it’s just a single Outer Disciple, it’s not impossible for us to kill him."
"A disciple of Shu Mountain killed our True Disciple; there must be an accounting. When the time comes, I will personally act and conceal the threads of Cause and Effect. I refuse to believe Shu Mountain will be able to trace it back to us."
"The Sect Leader is absolutely right."
"Then what should we do?"
"Wait!"
Han Lingzi said gravely, "Since he’s an Outer Disciple of Shu Mountain, he is bound to leave the mountain eventually. Send men to watch. The moment you find any trace of him, report to me at once."
"Then."
"I will personally act and eliminate him."
"Yes."
"As you command."
"..."
All the Elders and disciples of the Corpse Ghost Sect nodded respectfully.
「Time flew by.」
「In the blink of an eye.」
「Forty-two years had passed.」
「On this day.」
「Morning.」
HUMMM! HUMMM! HUMMM!!!
Chixia Peak.
At the summit.
Heavy snow drifted down all around. Winter had arrived. As far as the eye could see, the land was covered in a blanket of silvery white.
Xu Qing let out a breath of turbid air, which shot out like a sword. He slowly concluded his practice, a sharp light flashing in his eyes. ’Before I knew it, forty-two years have passed. I’ve been here on Shu Mountain practicing the Three Thousand Swords of Shushan for forty-two years, and the one hundred thousand Low-grade Law Stones I had are all gone.’
HUMMM!
With a thought, Xu Qing’s consciousness connected with the Encyclopedia of All Things.
Then, the basic information for the Three Thousand Swords of Shushan appeared in his mind.
...
[Three Thousand Swords of Shushan LV6: 15,332 Trillion / 32 Trillion (Upgradeable!) (...)]
...
’For forty-two years, I’ve practiced the Three Thousand Swords of Shushan day and night without a moment’s rest, right up until today.’ Xu Qing murmured, ’The Experience Points for the Three Thousand Swords of Shushan have accumulated to fifteen thousand three hundred thirty-two trillion, and the one hundred thousand Low-grade Law Stones I had are completely used up.’
’Moreover, within the Shushan Sect, every Outer Disciple also receives one hundred Low-grade Law Stones as a monthly resource. Since I’m on Shu Mountain, one of the Nine Great Sacred Lands of the Middle Earth Great Tang, I don’t have to worry about my safety at all.’
’Therefore, I can devote myself completely to my cultivation. The only thing I need to put any effort into finding is more Law Stones to aid my practice.’
’Upgrade the Three Thousand Swords of Shushan.’
HUMMM!
Xu Qing focused his mind.
The next moment, the Encyclopedia of All Things flashed with an intense radiance. Deep within his mind, its light shone brilliantly. Xu Qing’s consciousness trembled as it was pulled into a mysterious world.
SHING! SHING! SHING!!!
The ringing of swords echoed in all directions.
Xu Qing’s mind reeled. Within this mysterious world, he endlessly practiced and cultivated the Three Thousand Swords of Shushan, completely oblivious to the passage of time.
It seemed like an instant.
It seemed like an eternity.
It seemed like tens of millions of years...

Xu Qing opened his eyes. Within his gaze, it seemed as if countless Laws were intertwining, slowly forming the shape of a sword...
"Continue," Xu Qing murmured. "Upgrade the Three Thousand Swords of Shushan!"
