My Immortal Cultivation Game Life

Chapter 40: Chapter 40: Comprehension Even Stronger Than Liu Ningshuang’s

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Qi Cultivation Realm comprehending sword intent?!”

“Hiss… No wonder so many elders showed up. Is this guy really from the Outer Sect?!”

The disciples were extremely shocked.

At this moment, Dong Wanglian and the other elders had already entered the hall.

Butler Xiao quickly said, “Elders.”

Lu Yi also spoke, “Lu Yi greets the elders.”

The elders nodded at Lu Yi, their smiles gentle.

“Little guy, welcome to Ling Luo Peak.”

“Kid, perform well in the assessment. I have high hopes for you!”

“…”

Then, they looked at Butler Xiao. Dong Wanglian said, “Butler Xiao, why haven’t you started the assessment yet?”

Being watched by so many Nascent Soul elders made Butler Xiao a bit nervous.

He nodded repeatedly, “Alright, Elder Dong Wang.”

He looked at Lu Yi, smiling, “Lu Yi, the entry assessment for Ling Luo Peak is the most difficult among the Twelve Peaks of the sect. According to the Peak Master’s intent, it’s better to have quality over quantity in our disciples. We use our limited resources to cultivate those worth cultivating. However, this difficulty is relative to ordinary disciples; for you, it might just be a formality… Generally speaking, disciples with the potential to enter the Inner Sect have no issues with their cultivation talent. So, our entry assessment mainly assesses two aspects: comprehension and combat ability. The comprehension assessment involves understanding a martial art.”

As he spoke, Butler Xiao flipped his hand, and a book appeared in it: “Lu Yi, this is the Qi cultivation skill ‘Nine Shadow Sword.’ Among Qi cultivation skills, it’s considered quite challenging. Your task is to master this skill within two dual-hours.”

Lu Yi took the book, raised an eyebrow, and smiled, “I understand.”

No wonder the Ling Luo Peak assessment is said to be difficult. Two dual-hours mean four hours. Mastering a skill in four hours, even if it’s just a Qi cultivation skill, is not easy at all.

At the same time, Lu Yi murmured to himself, “I want to read through the ‘Nine Shadow Sword’ manual.”

{Task}

Read through the ‘Nine Shadow Sword’ manual (0/1)

Reward: ‘Nine Shadow Sword’ level +1

Accept: Yes/No

Sure enough…

Lu Yi felt delighted inside. For him, simply mastering the basics, he just needed to read it once.

There was basically no difficulty.

At this moment, Lu Yi thought of something else and murmured to himself again, “I want to pass the Ling Luo Peak entry assessment.”

{Task}

Pass the Ling Luo Peak entry assessment

Reward: Water Spirit Dew, Mid Grade Magic Tool White Spirit Belt.

Accept: Yes/No

Lu Yi’s eyes lit up with surprise.

My goodness, does the entry assessment really have such high rewards?

Although not as valuable as winning the Grand Competition, it’s still quite commendable!

He immediately accepted the task.

Butler Xiao pointed to the futon in the hall and said, “You can sit on the futon to comprehend. We won’t disturb you.”

Lu Yi nodded with a smile, walked over to the futon, and opened the ‘Nine Shadow Sword’ manual.

The ‘Nine Shadow Sword’ was different from the White Cloud Sword Technique, which mainly embodied the conception of white clouds, focusing on being ethereal and unpredictable. The ‘Nine Shadow Sword’ emphasized speed and intricacy more; as comprehension deepened, one could wield multiple sword shadows during combat, with formidable power.

Lu Yi immersed himself in the manual, calmly reading.

While Lu Yi read quietly, the elders and disciples did not disturb him; instead, they communicated through sound transmission.

“It has begun!”

“Let’s make a bet. How long do you think it will take for this kid to comprehend?”

“Are you influenced by the Peak Master? Betting, betting, all day long… I bet one dual-hour. This kid’s cultivation base is still low. If he were in the Foundation Establishment Realm, he would be much faster.”

“Heh… Impossible! Lu Yi has comprehended sword intent. Even though his cultivation base is low, it won’t take long for him to master a skill. I bet about half a dual-hour.”

“Half a dual-hour?! Impossible! That’s absolutely impossible! The ‘Nine Shadow Sword’ itself is extremely difficult to cultivate. No matter how high this kid’s comprehension is, it’s impossible to master it in half a dual-hour!”

“Heh, we shall see!”

“We shall see then!”

“…”

Lu Yi spent about ten minutes reading through the ‘Nine Shadow Sword’ manual.

After reading it, Lu Yi glanced at his panel. The manual reading task showed as completed. Lu Yi, delighted, claimed the reward. Immediately, information about the ‘Nine Shadow Sword’ entered his mind. After absorbing the information, Lu Yi had already mastered the ‘Nine Shadow Sword.’

Lu Yi looked at the ‘Nine Shadow Sword’ (lv1) on his panel, then glanced at the time, unable to help but exclaim.

This was too fast.

Lu Yi suddenly had the troubles of being an academic prodigy. In his previous life, during exams, some prodigies would always finish halfway through the exam time, making others envious, jealous, and hateful.

He didn’t expect that he could now be one of them.

A four-hour exam took him just over ten minutes, making him feel quite impressive.

But Lu Yi also found himself troubled. Standing up now would be too conspicuous, wouldn’t it?

Lu Yi wasn’t a showy person.

Lu Yi decided to read the manual again, pretending to study it seriously while thinking about which Nascent Soul elder to choose as his teacher after passing the entry assessment.

After another half dual-hour passed, Lu Yi felt it was about time. Standing up now wouldn’t be too conspicuous.

So, Lu Yi stood up.

Seeing Lu Yi get up, the elders and disciples’ eyes lit up with anticipation, exchanging sound transmissions.

“Has he comprehended it so quickly? It’s only been two quarters of an hour. That’s incredibly fast.”

“Don’t rush. He hasn’t started practicing yet. He still needs to practice it a few times.”

“Makes sense… How many times do you think Lu Yi will need to practice to master it?”

“Within ten times!”

“Even so, he’d still master it within half a dual-hour, right?”

“Let’s wait and see.”

“…”

As they were communicating, Lu Yi took out the long sword he had stored in his interspatial ring and swung it.

Swoosh!!

The long sword cut through the air, leaving a sharp sword shadow, marking the entry-level mastery of the ‘Nine Shadow Sword.’

Everyone: “???”

The hall suddenly fell silent. The elders and disciples all stared wide-eyed, dumbfounded at the slowly dissipating sword shadow.

Then, a disciple exclaimed, “Mastered already?! How long has it been?!”

The others were also in an uproar.

“Two quarters of an hour, and he has already mastered the ‘Nine Shadow Sword!’ What kind of monster is Lu Yi?!”

“Yeah, this guy didn’t even practice. Did he just master it by simulating it in his mind after reading the manual?!”

“…No wonder he could comprehend sword intent at the Qi Cultivation Realm. His comprehension is literally inhuman!”

The disciples exclaimed in astonishment one after another.

Even the elders’ eyes were filled with shock. They couldn’t help but exchange glances.

“This comprehension…”

“If this kid’s cultivation base were at the Foundation Establishment Realm, I wouldn’t be surprised if he could comprehend the ‘Nine Shadow Sword’ in two quarters of an hour. But this kid is just at the Qi Cultivation Realm!”

“Yeah, with such a cultivation base, mastering the extremely challenging ‘Nine Shadow Sword’ in two quarters of an hour… It’s truly astonishing.”

“This level of comprehension might be on par with Liu Ningshuang… No, it might even be slightly stronger,” a Nascent Soul elder slowly said.
