Inside the room, Lu Xun took another glance at the Ink Shield surrounding him and muttered to himself, “This might be what they call the legendary Rainbow Black.”
After a brief study of the defensive level of the Ink Shield and the amount of mana it depleted, Lu Xun felt it was indeed suitable for him.
To others, the mana depletion might be a problem, but to Lu Xun, as long as the Ink Shield is sturdy, usage of mana is irrelevant.
With his massive amount of spiritual power, not to mention a single shield, he could handle multiple at once!
A Russian Doll-type Shield, piece of cake!
After these deductions, Lu Xun pondered a bit and decided to consult his master about why his shield had suddenly turned black, if it could be an issue.
Arriving outside the Small Study, the master was surprisingly still enjoying hot tea in the cold wind.
The north wind howled, blowing his white robe, but his hair remained undisturbed. It seemed he used his spiritual power to stabilize his hairstyle, saving himself from being blinded by it flying around.
“Stylish!” Lu Xun mentally commented.
Standing by the wooden table, he said to the master, “Master, I practiced the Ink Painting technique just now, and…seems like a problem occurred.”
“Oh? Tell me about it.” The master replied, drinking hot tea made by Zhuge Lai Fu, without turning his head.
“I think it’s better I show you.” Saying this, Lu Xun activated his Ink Shield.
A stream of ink-colored Qi circulated around him, with a strong sense of an Ink Painting.
While rotating the Ink Shield, he said, “I don’t know why, but my Ink Painting is of ink color, unlike the pink color recorded in the technique.”
The master glanced at it and then frowned intensely!
“How can it look so good, with a hint of ink painting taste!”
The master felt the tea in his hand suddenly lost its aroma.
Mao Nanbei and Zhuge Lai Fu were also looking at Lu Xun’s Ink Shield. The little girl even gasped and exclaimed aloud, “Little Junior Brother, your Qi shield looks so beautiful!”
The corner of the master’s mouth twitched slightly.
“Little Five.” The master softly spoke.
“Yes, Master, I’m listening.” Lu Xun stood aside, deactivating the Ink Shield.
“You’re planning on venturing out to gain experience, right? Start preparing early.” The master put down his teacup and said.
“Huh.” Lu Xun was taken aback and asked, “So, my Ink Painting…?”
“There’s no problem, it’s simply because your Qi Sea is a bit unique.” The master waved his hand, stopped drinking tea, and went straight into the room.
Watching the master’s receding figure, Lu Xun thought to himself, “So, it has nothing to do with the Nameless Technique. I originally thought it was because I practice all Five Elements, and the colors mixed to become Rainbow Black. It appears to be due to my black Qi Sea.”
Black robes, a black sword sheath, black Qi Sea, Black Shield… and a black-heart guy.
Still, Lu Xun couldn’t figure out why his Qi Sea was so unique?
In the room, the master stood in front of his bed and silently activated the Ink Painting technique created by him.
The Qi Shield generated around the master also differed from ordinary cultivators.
Other cultivators’ shields were mainly pink, interspersed with any of the five symbolic colors from the Five Elements.
The master’s Ink Painting was a real combination of pink and black, the colors mixing and revolving around him.
Yet, his black stream looked somewhat different from Lu Xun’s, lacking the ink painting feel. Although it was named “Ink Painting”, it didn’t look like ink color, but rather, a glossy black.
It didn’t look as good as Lu Xun’s, nor was it as sophisticated.
Annoyed, the master waved his sleeve and put away his two-color mixed Qi Shield.
After consulting with the master, Lu Xun returned to his room and spent another ten thousand experience points, leveling up his Ink Painting technique to level 2.
“It seems like this technique of mine shouldn’t be called ‘Pink Ink’ anymore. It has nothing to do with pink, only ‘Ink Painting’ remains.” Lu Xun muttered to himself.
After gathering the aura of ink painting flowing around him, Lu Xun sat cross-legged on the bed and began his daily practice of the Nameless Technique.
After enjoying a wave of familiar pain, Lu Xun felt refreshed and began planning what he would do after descending the mountain.
The first thing was to go ahead and complete the hidden mission triggered by the Emperor Guild, to surprise them greatly during the public beta!
Let me perform a magic trick for you, your hidden mission is gone yo!
The reward for this mission seems to be a piece of Superior Yellow Armor on the surface, but actually, it is a mysterious key, and Lu Xun is determined to obtain it.
“I should ask Little Chan tomorrow morning. I wonder if she wants to stay on the mountain or come down with me,” Lu Xun thought.
After a good night’s sleep, Lu Xun woke up early as the sun rose.
Lin Chan was waiting outside the room. When Lu Xun was in the kitchen making three meals a day, she would help out by his side.
The winter sun shone upon the mute girl and she had changed significantly compared to when she first arrived at the mountain.
Her complexion was as normal as anyone else’s, and her body had become curvier. She was developing late and was still growing, but she was giving Lu Xun a sense of a young girl coming of age.
The ugly duckling was slowly turning into a beautiful swan, giving Lu Xun a great sense of accomplishment and satisfaction.
He walked up to Lin Chan, comparing her height with his hand on her head, and laughed, “It seems you’ve grown a little taller.”
Lin Chan’s small face was facing Lu Xun’s chest. She could faintly feel her master’s breath, feeling shy but still happily nodded her head.
Young girls always desire to grow up.
“What do you want for breakfast?” Lu Xun asked.
Lin Chan shook her head, indicating that she was fine with whatever.
“Let’s have noodles then, let me cook you some plain noodles.” Lu Xun said, walking toward the kitchen.
During the cooking process, Lu Xun asked Lin Chan, “Little Chan, I’m preparing to go down the mountain for a while. Would you like to stay on the mountain for cultivation, or come with me?”
Lin Chan looked up at Lu Xun, then without any hesitation, she wanted to point at him with her little finger to show she wanted to go with her master, but then thought it would be impolite for a disciple to point at the master. So, instead, she gently tugged at Lu Xun’s black robe with her little hand.
“Want to come with me down the mountain?” Lu Xun casually asked while sprinkling green onions.
Lin Chan nodded.
Even though the gentlemen and elders in the back mountain were nice to her, she still wanted to stay with her master. She was just a little bit worried whether she would bring trouble to him.
Lu Xun turned to look at her and laughed, “Alright, then the little follower will come down the mountain with me.”
Seeing that her master seemed eager to have her with him, Lin Chan was very happy and stood on her tiptoes.
The noodles were ready. Lu Xun asked Lin Chan to call everyone at the bamboo forest to have their meal together.
During their meal, Lu Xun told the gentlemen and brothers their plan of going down the mountain three days later and that Lin Chan would also follow him for experience.
The gentleman was slowly eating his noodles, he managed to enjoy the simple noodles as if they were a rare delicacy.
He looked at Lin Chan and said to Lu Xun, “Little Chan is almost at the Initial Realm. As a master, have you prepared the following cultivation technique for her?”
“It’s all up to you, sir.” Lu Xun replied with a giggle, passing the ball to the gentleman.
The gentleman wanted to knock Lu Xun on the head with his chopsticks out of amusement. But then thinking that he might use too much force and burst Lu Xun’s head, he instead withdrew his chopsticks.
He finished his plain noodles, put down his chopsticks and bowl. He said, “Little Chan, I will teach you a suitable technique later. But you need to remember, do not attempt to practice it before you reach the Initial Realm.”
Lin Chan obediently nodded, then got up and bowed to the gentleman. f𝗿𝐞ewebno𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝐨m
Lu Xun also finished his noodles and leaned contently against the thick bamboo. He said to the gentleman, “Sir, when Little Chan reaches the Initial Realm, shouldn’t she also learn some swordsmanship suitable for her? This Five Elements Sword Formation of mine might not be suitable for her…”
Seeing Lu Xun pushing his luck, the gentleman didn’t get angry. He said to Lin Chan, “The Partridge Sky sword comes with its sword technique. Once you are in the Initial Realm, you can comprehend it yourself.”
When he finished, he added, “Only remember, this sword technique is very domineering. Don’t use it unless you have to.”
