Chapter 324: Heavenly Sword Trial (1)

Lu Yuan, who had fallen into a state of epiphany, had basically entered his own world and was completely unaware of the outside world. It was as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.
One could sense this state, but it was as if it was not there.
The reason why he was able to fall into such a simple epiphany was naturally related to his Innate Spirit.
The Dikui sword intent rubbing stone in front of him probably contained the sword intent of a Spirit Sword Sect’s Tribulation Crossing Stage cultivator.
It was a Sword Celestial’s lifetime comprehension of the way of the sword.
It was not easy for an ordinary person to sense the sword intent in a rubbing stone. After all, it was like a treasure locked in a box. One had to first open the chest to see the treasure inside.
However, the Innate Spirit had a strong perception of laws, so it simply ignored the existence of the box and looked straight at the treasure in the box.
Moreover, things were not that simple. One could only sense level 1 of the sword intent at the beginning.
With this, the Spirit Sword Sect could eliminate some mediocre people who were not suitable to cultivate the way of the sword.
The key was whether one could comprehend a thing or two from the sword intent.
With Lu Yuan’s Innate Spirit, there was literally nothing incomprehensible about the sword intent.
This was because the Innate Spirit was an existence that was infinitely close to the laws of heaven and earth.
Therefore, Lu Yuan’s current method was equivalent to crazily absorbing the essence of the sword intent in the stone stele in front of him and turning it into nourishment for himself.
[Ding! Because you have seriously studied the sword intent • Dikui Swordsmanship, you have learned a new skill, 72 Disha • Dikui Sword.]
[Ding! Through the absorption of sword intent, you have obtained a large amount of knowledge about Dikui Swordsmanship. You have obtained 1000 points of proficiency in the 72 Disha • Dikui Sword.]

Ten days later, Lu Yuan, who was originally in a state of enlightenment, suddenly woke up from that wonderful state.
Then, he looked at the stone stele in front of him and realized that one-third of it was covered in fragments.
At the same time, there was a hurried knock on the door. The knocking sound was very urgent as if something big had happened.
Lu Yuan decisively opened the door.
The person who entered his eye was a disciple of the Sword Comprehension Pavilion.
“Fellow Daoist, there’s a problem with the Sword Comprehension Pavilion. The Pavilion Master has decided to close the entire Sword Comprehension Pavilion. As a result, the pavilion will fully bear the impact on you. These are your spiritual stones, please take them.”
After Lu Yuan accepted the spiritual stones, he cautiously asked, “May I ask what happened?”
The other party thought for a moment and said, “It’s not a secret. It’s just that there’s a problem with the Dikui sword intent rubbing stone. The Pavilion Master suspects that the sword intent inside is about to be depleted and needs to be replenished. God knows which monstrous genius has come to the Dikui Sword Comprehension Pavilion. Usually, only when monstrous geniuses who can absorb sword intent appear will such a situation occur. Fellow Daoist, don’t worry. In at most ten years, the Dikui Sword Comprehension Pavilion will open again. At that time, the Dikui sword intent should be replenished.”
Lu Yuan nodded. Then, he left the Sword Comprehension Pavilion with the others.
He did not choose to communicate with the others. Instead, he lowered his head and walked out.
However, when he was about to leave, Lu Yuan brushed past someone.
For some reason, the other party suddenly glanced at him.
Although this glance didn’t last long, it made Lu Yuan feel as if he was being stared at. He hurriedly began to circulate the Aura Obscurity Technique to hide his sword intent fluctuation, only revealing some of his Nascent Soul Stage cultivation.
The other party didn’t seem to discover anything from Lu Yuan. In the end, he simply walked past.
Lu Yuan did not look in the direction of that person, pretending to be innocent. He looked just like the other cultivators around him and was very normal. “Pavilion Master? Did you discover something?”
Upon hearing his subordinate’s words, Dikui Pavilion Master looked at Lu Yuan’s back and ultimately shook his head, “It’s nothing. I might have seen wrongly.”
After Lu Yuan was far away from the Dikui Sword Comprehension Pavilion, he heaved a huge sigh of relief.
Just a moment ago, he had felt an aura comparable to Jing Ming’s from that unfamiliar cultivator. Without a doubt, the other party should also be an Apotheosis Stage cultivator.
Facing such a cultivator, although Lu Yuan felt that he need not be too afraid, his idea of being invisible in the Spirit Sword Sect would undoubtedly be shattered if the other party were to see through something.
Fortunately, Apotheosis Stage cultivators currently could not see through his background at all.
Therefore, he did not have to worry too much about his strength being exposed and being the focus of attention.
As for what happened in the Dikui Sword Comprehension Pavilion, Lu Yuan felt that it was most likely related to him.
At such a time, he naturally wouldn’t return to the “crime scene”.
What if someone found out? That would be bad.
Upon returning to his residence in Dikui City, Lu Yuan immediately started packing his things and fled ahead of time.
In any case, he had already absorbed the Dikui sword intent. There was no point in continuing to stay here.
