There’s Something Wrong With This Account - Chapter 354 - Chapter 354: 354, [Partridge Sky Upgrade]

Chapter 354: 354, [Partridge Sky Upgrade]

“The next day, after Lin Chan woke up, she followed Lu Xun’s instructions and waited by his room’s door early in the morning, wanting her birthday gift.

Although she couldn’t speak, she was smart and clearly understood the joy it brought to the gift giver to see the anticipation and excitement of the receiver.

She was genuinely eager for her master’s gift, such that after finishing her training the previous night, she had difficulty falling asleep as she was filled with anticipation.

As Lu Xun opened his door, he saw Little Chan waiting there for him.

She ran over to claim her gift as soon as she could, just like Lu Xun had told her to, but she was a timid and shy young girl who couldn’t extend her hand to ask for it.

Lin Chan lowered her head, her little ears turning slightly red. Lu Xun smiled at the sight and couldn’t help but pinch her earlobe lightly.

“”It’s a little hot.”” he said to himself.

Lu Xun found this amusing, so he lifted his other hand and playfully pinched her other ear.

This caused her ears to turn even more red. If this were in an anime, they’d be billowing out steam.

“”Happy birthday, Little Chan,”” Lu Xun said with a smile. “”Come outside with me. The gift I have for you is so amazing that I want to give it to you in front of everyone, just to show off a bit.””

Lin Chan, upon hearing this, lowered her head and gave a faint smile.

She didn’t really care about the gift. What really mattered to her was the overt favoritism from Lu Xun.

Truthfully speaking, Lu Xun’s intention of giving her the ‘Sword Legacy’ in public wasn’t solely for show. Sure, there was a tad bit of it, but that was not the main reason.

The main reason was that this ‘Sword Legacy’ contained the residual energy of a particular sword spirit.

Who knew if the energy would immediately deplete upon opening the box?

When Dida was within the Boundary Monument, he could form a restriction seal to contain it, but after taking it out, Lu Xun was cautious of unforeseen events occurring.

However, if the master was present to oversee, there would be nothing to worry about.

If even the master couldn’t handle it, then it’d be useless no matter who else tried.

As usual, everyone gathered in the bamboo forest on the back hill for breakfast.

After finishing their meal, Lu Xun took out a small wooden box from his storage ring and solemnly handed it to Lin Chan.

Lin Chan received the box with both hands. When her fingers touched the box, she looked up at Lu Xun with surprise.

She had obviously sensed something.

“”As expected from a Natural Sword Embryo, she can sense the Breath of Sword Spirit in the box even through the seal,”” Lu Xun thought to himself.

The master glanced at the box, his brows furrowing lightly, and he made a soft ‘Hmm’ sound.

He asked, “”Little Five, where did you get this?””

Lu Xun responded, “”This is the ‘Sword Legacy’ that your disciple acquired within the Boundary Monument of West State.””

It was apparent that the master could tell at a glance what the box contained.

He marveled at this, saying, “”That lad from Sword Mountain has something special in storing the remnants of sword spirits. I’ve never seen this technique before.””

Upon hearing this, Lu Xun thought to himself, “”Lad? Did the master just refer to the founding patriarch of Sword Mountain as a lad?””

The master didn’t continue the conversation and instead turned to Lin Chan and said, “”Little Chan, take out your ‘Partridge Sky’.””

Upon hearing this, Lin Chan obediently nodded and withdrew a broken sword from her storage ring.

Ever since Lin Chan obtained ‘Partridge Sky’ from Hidden Mountain, she had been nurturing it with the Sword Cultivating Technique. Though the results were modest, it seemed more like prolonging its life than healing it.

Although the spirit of ‘Partridge Sky’ showed minor improvements, they were trivial. Its quality remained at the Superior Blue Level, and there had been no enhancement.

Consider for a moment that Lu Xun’s body was now equivalent to an Upper-Class Spirit Sword, it meant he had reached the same level as the current ‘Partridge Sky’.

After glancing at ‘Partridge Sky’, the master instructed, “”Little Five, open the box.””

Lu Xun nodded, pulled up his sleeve, and revealed the teal-blue mark on his wrist.

This mark was the “key” that Dida had left for him.

Lu Xun subtly stimulated it with his spiritual power, and this teal-blue mark turned into a stream of light.

This light was quickly absorbed by the wooden box, and then with a “pop”, the wooden box opened automatically.

Everyone curiously looked inside the box to a small swirl of silver-white energy.

It was like a little silver vortex, carrying a faint sense of the cosmos.

“Is this the Sword Spirit Remnant that Mr. spoke of? It is so beautiful!” Ji Li, in the late stages of appreciating beauty, was the first to exclaim in her heart.

Lin Chan looked at it and also thought it was very beautiful, not to mention it looked very precious.

“Master has left the best things for me again…” Lin Chan felt a slight complexity in her heart.

But the Broken Sword she held in her hand called “Partridge Sky” had some rare changes.

When this broken sword first encountered Lin Chan, it had emitted several weak sword cries on Hidden Mountain.

Although the sound was faint, the intense unwillingness it conveyed left a deep impression on Lin Chan.

She did not know what the sword spirit of this broken sword was unwilling to accept, but she could feel its stubbornness and desire for life!

It didn’t want to disappear just like that!

But since Lin Chan took it down the mountain, she had never heard its sword cries again. It was too weak; it seemed to be strenuous even to make a sound.

However, at this moment, its sword cries rang out again!

Desire! It revealed its infinite longing for the thing in the wooden box!

This sword that was mentioned by the gentleman desperately wanted the silver energy vortex inside the wooden box!

Seeing Partridge Sky, Lu Xun couldn’t help but feel that the scene was very familiar, similar to when the Sword Sheath was desiring to swallow the pearl and the Sword Qi…

However, the desires of the two seemed not to be of the same kind…

“Close your eyes, calm your heart, and guide it with the Sword Cultivating Technique,” Mr. instructed.

Lin Chan immediately complied. After sitting cross-legged, she placed her hands on her legs and held the broken sword in her palms.

With a wave of Mr.’s sleeve, the silver energy vortex inside the wooden box flew out, spinning at a paced speed.

It was slowly expanding, or more accurately, diluting.

It became lighter and lighter, from the size of a pebble to the size of an adult man’s two palms.

Then, silver light, like rain, fell little by little over Partridge Sky.

This broken sword, which was always thought to be as quiet and introverted as Little Mute Lin Chan, began to vibrate and tremble.

The cry of its sword became more and more resonant…almost as if an elderly man on his deathbed had miraculously gained a new lease on life!

When the swirling energy completely landed on its body, it seemed enveloped with a coat of silver moonlight!

And this light was penetrating it, being absorbed by it.

The aura of the broken sword was rising continuously!

Lu Xun had a front-row seat to watch this broken sword evolve from Blue Martial to Purple Martial!

Then a prompt message appeared before him.

‘Ding! You’ve triggered the reward mechanism of the [Guide] task. Do you want to claim the task reward?’

(PS: Sorry, didn’t sleep well last night due to a toothache and a bit of a cold. I feel woozy so there will be only one chapter today. I’ll make up for it with three updates tomorrow, maybe even four, depending on how I feel.)
