Translator: 549690339

“[Ding! Dungeon: Turtle’s Longevity, successfully breached!]”

“[You have gained 20,000 Experience Points.]”

“[Current Rank: 2nd place.]”

He had managed to complete the dungeon in one go and was rewarded with 20,000 experience points. This left Lu Xun highly satisfied.

The only disappointment was that his second senior sister Gu Xiaoman seemed to have finished in less time, holding her position at the top of the leaderboard. This meant that Lu Xun could not receive the experience points from being in the top spot.

“I was already very efficient, essentially speeding through the first two stages. Yet, the second senior sister finished faster than me. How did she do that?” Lu Xun couldn’t figure it out.

“Could it be that she didn’t spend much time on the third stage?” Lu Xun found that hard to believe.

Honestly speaking, Lu Xun didn’t have a solid grasp of his second senior sister’s exact abilities. He had never seen her in action, and he couldn’t recall the Sword Intent that appeared in the dream.

All he knew was that she used to be a Taoist Nun, she still liked wearing Daoist robes now, she stammered when she spoke, and the wooden hairpin in her hair was her sword.

As far as he could recall, even though the second senior sister appeared aloof, she took special care of Lu Xun. She had significantly contributed to his current strength. On the other hand, their master… still hadn’t returned to the mountain!

“Elder E should know how the second senior sister managed to pass. I should ask him later,” Lu Xun mused.

He wasn’t disheartened, after all, a new year would start in just another month. He could try again. By then, he would have leveled up quite a bit, and he intended to surpass his second senior sister, grabbing another wave of experience points!

Before he left, Lu Xun took a glance at the Main Sword in the sword array.

“Hiss! How did it crack?” He squatted down for a closer look and indeed, the sword had cracked, and the split was quite large.

A superior Magical Sword should have an inherent rhyme. If it was once a robust man full of energy, now it resembled a frail, haggard figure with sunken eyes.

Magical Sword: I’m broken.

“It looks a bit exhausted, did I make it go bad?” Lu Xun couldn’t help but frown.

If he had known earlier, he would have been more gentle.

He began to ponder: “Being the prestigious Young Elder of the Demon Sect and the disciple of our teacher, they wouldn’t make me pay for it, right?”

With this thought, Lu Xun felt some relief. He took a step forward, and a beam of white light shrouded him, teleporting him in front of the Stone Door.

Lu Xun picked up his storage ring and sword sheath from the ground. The black cord of the sword sheath happily wrapped itself around his wrist, which felt a bit annoying.

It acted as if they had been separated for years instead of a day!

“The Sword Qi is Near, your sword sheath is too clingy.” Lu Xun muttered to himself.

Just as he was about to push open the Stone Door, he heard Elder E’s raspy voice echoing through the entire basement.

“Demon Sect’s Lu Xun, ranks 2nd, has cleared the dungeon!”

Thump! A wooden plate bearing Lu Xun’s name fell onto the table, with the word ‘Cleared’ carved behind it.

The instant it landed, shouts of surprise from Demon Sect disciples could be heard outside.

And with perfect timing, just as the shouts began, Lu Xun opened the Stone Door, stepping out of the dungeon with a completely calm and collected expression.

The Demon Sect disciple in charge of the Turtle’s Longevity dungeon was Chen Yun. With a look of reverence, he hung up the wooden plate with Lu Xun’s name on it.

By succeeding, Lu Xun managed to push Xiao Ran down to third place, leaving the first and second spots both occupied by the Demon Sect.

And since Lu Xun and Xiao Ran were practically of the same age, comparing them seemed reasonable.

Lu Xun had been cultivating for a much shorter period than Xiao Ran, which, in the eyes of the Demon Sect disciples, was equivalent to the Demon Sect being superior to the Luotian Sect, even giving them a sense of pride!

As for Ji Li, her gaze towards Lu Xun remained conspicuous, revealing a strong desire to possess him.

However, the fact that Lu Xun had surpassed her gave her a sense of urgency. She was only ranked 59th, while Lu Xun had shot straight up to 2nd place.

“I have to keep cultivating hard!” Ji Li motivated herself.

I, Ji Li, never give up!

Since the instance was over, Lu Xun felt much more relaxed.

Surrounded by a circle of Demon Sect disciples, his smile was warm. Standing in the position of Young Elder, he encouraged them a few times.

Although there were not many disciples present, they still contributed some “Reputation Value” to Lu Xun.

At the same time, they couldn’t possibly stay in the “Turtle’s Longevity” forever, it was just their task. When the time comes, other disciples would replace them. When they return to the sect, they could start spreading word for Lu Xun, and he would gain even more “Reputation Value”!

“Did you know? Our Young Elder defeated Xiao Ran of the Luotian Sect in the Turtle’s Longevity and became the second person to make it through!” Conversations like this would definitely occur.

Every person is a tool worth cherishing. Lu Xun strives to maximize the use of each tool, preferably turning every disciple of the Demon Sect into his diehard fan.

Make a debut! Young Elder!

After chatting with the disciples for a bit more, Lu Xun planned to go and bid Elder E goodbye.

This old crocodile was a peer of Lu Xun’s eldest brother and had unfathomable strength. It was necessary for Lu Xun to show him some respect.

The old crocodile was originally soaking in a distant water pit, but guessed that Lu Xun was coming to bid him farewell, so he flew back here.

He glanced at Lu Xun and said, “Not bad, boy.”

All the disciples of the Demon Sect knew Elder E’s temperament. The fact that he could say “not bad” was a big compliment.

Lu Xun smiled and thanked him.

Elder E looked Lu Xun up and down again, then fixed his gaze on the sword sheath, asking: “Boy, where is your sword… really?”

Lu Xun smiled but remained silent, not answering.

“Oh, still not answering?” Elder E didn’t get angry, continuing to ask: “So I’ll ask you again, you’re a Natural Sword Embryo right?” Lu Xun continued to smile, nodding hard.

I, Lu Xun, am a Natural Sword Embryo, that’s for sure!

This was the best cover for his overpowered abilities.

“Ha ha! I knew I wasn’t mistaken!” Elder E laughed heartily, seemingly amused that the Demon Sect had two Natural Sword Embryos.

Although he was the guardian of “Turtle’s Longevity” as a way to repay Yan Li’s favor, he did consider himself half a member of the Demon Sect and felt some sense of belonging.

And when he imagined how One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain would react when they found out the Demon Sect had another Natural Sword Embryo, the old monster found it quite interesting!

Seeing that Elder E was in a good mood and seemed to like him, Lu Xun asked: “Elder E, were you present when my second senior sister managed to breakthrough?”

Elder E nodded, looking at Lu Xun with amusement, “You’re wondering how much time your second sister spent, aren’t you?”

Lu Xun didn’t deny it, he was indeed very curious.

Elder E said to him: “Indeed, at that time I was the guardian of the Turtle’s Longevity. Though she was not a Natural Sword Embryo, her Enlightenment was extremely high, and her strength was unexpectedly strong. Despite being only at the Great Perfection of the Initial Realm, her displayed strength was far beyond.”

So when the second senior sister broke through, she was already level 20, the highest level set in Turtle’s Longevity.

Elder E continued: “If you want to know how much time she spent, I can definitely tell you.”

After that, he held up three fingers to Lu Xun.

“Three minutes!?” Lu Xun was astonished.

Unexpectedly, Elder E shook his head, his voice deep and said:

“It was three breaths.”
