Chapter 74 A Sword's Frost Chills Across Fourteen Provinces 7
This Dao Lord's Nascent Soul Tribulation was truly magnificent; it took the combined efforts of the Breaking Mountain Sword Venerable to conceal these extraordinary phenomena of heaven and earth, including the auspicious signs after the tribulation.
Luo Shu's strength is not yet strong enough. If someone with ulterior motives finds out, it won't be good.
The disciples of the Giant Sword Sect did not notice anything special. They only felt that the spiritual energy on the mountain was very thin for a period of time, but it soon recovered and was even more abundant than before.
It's normal that they can't communicate with the origin of heaven and earth and can't perceive these things.
However, there was one person who felt very uncomfortable. That person was Miao Qiqi. Miao Qiqi was the female lead chosen by the will of this world, but after Luo Shu came into existence, her existence could complete the laws of the Great Dao, and this female lead was no longer needed.
The female protagonist is a being bestowed with destiny by the world's will, which also requires her to expend her own original power. But Luo Shu doesn't need to. One needs to expend her own energy, while the other provides her with a free subsidy. Of course, the world's consciousness will choose Luo Shu!
Miao Qiqi's luck has faded, so she is no longer the female lead; from now on, she will just be an ordinary person with better luck.
At this moment, Miao Qiqi felt panicked, as if she had lost something very important. She had been very lucky since childhood, and she would get whatever she wanted. Although she had been raised by her aunt since she was a child, she had never been mistreated. Whenever someone had ill intentions towards her, she would inevitably be hurt.
After her spiritual root was discovered, she was taken in as a disciple by Daoist Lei Yun, and her luck improved even more. In fact, if he disliked someone, that person would get hurt or suffer bad luck.
She didn't really like this Senior Sister Luo Shu. Her senior brothers and master were all too good, but with Luo Shu around, she wasn't the most special one.
Then her master and fellow disciples began to distance themselves from Senior Sister Luo Shu, even scolding her for bullying them. Although it was despicable, Miao Qiqi felt a little happy inside.
Then, on that day, Senior Sister Luo Shu suddenly destroyed her sword bone. Miao Qiqi was shocked and heartbroken, as if it were her own sword bone. Later, when she saw Luo Shu leave Qingyun Peak again, she became more and more uneasy, as if something had escaped her control. Then, after seeing the power that Luo Shu displayed at the Sword Pavilion, she became even more confused.
Did Senior Sister Luo Shu do something again today?
She had this feeling deep down.
On Luo Shu's side, the atmosphere was warm and friendly. After learning that the little girl in front of them was the future Dao Lord, the peak masters' eyes became even more ardent and kind, and their faces were all wrinkled with smiles. They were all highly cultivated and looked like handsome middle-aged men, but at this moment they looked very strange, like weird uncles.
It was Tantai Mingshu who spoke first: "Congratulations to Junior Sister Luo Shu on achieving the Nascent Soul stage! Junior Sister is truly a prodigy, making rapid progress!"
Others echoed this sentiment.
"Yes, yes, yes, they reached the Nascent Soul stage so quickly, that's amazing!"
"I see that my junior sister's nascent soul is radiant and clear, which means that her cultivation is well-rounded and her foundation is solid."
"Junior Sister's Nascent Soul Tribulation was incredibly powerful; she's destined for greatness!"
A group of people were praising Luo Shu to the skies. This was the future Dao Lord, the Dao Lord of the Giant Sword Sect. What was wrong with praising her? They were going to praise her a lot.
Lei Yun Daoist felt increasingly resentful. A piece of unpolished jade had not shown any extraordinary qualities in his own hands, but it immediately shone brightly in the hands of others. This showed that he was useless.
Surrounded in the center, Luo Shu remained calm and composed, her aura as gentle as a spring breeze. She bowed to the peak masters and said, "Thank you, senior brothers, for expending your magic power for me. I thank you all for your help."
After saying this, the peak masters all said repeatedly, "It's no trouble at all. Junior sister, please don't be so formal. We have all joined the Giant Sword Sect, so we should help each other and be friendly to each other within the sect."
The group then engaged in another round of lively banter, enjoying themselves immensely.
Then, Sword Master Po Yue said, "If you have any news about Peach Blossom Curse, you can tell Luo Shu."
The group was startled. Peach Blossom Curse was a difficult problem in the cultivation world. It belonged to the Gu technique, which was already a niche art, and it was one of the most troublesome Gu techniques. The main reason was that there were two things about Peach Blossom Curse that people were very wary of.
Firstly, falling in love can lead to death, as I've mentioned before.
Secondly, if there are marks on your face, although they are not ugly, others can tell at a glance that you have been afflicted by a "peach blossom curse," which can easily become a weakness that others use to attack you.
But why is Luo Shu, the future Dao Lord, associated with Peach Blossom Demon?
Then Luo Shu took off her mask.
Bright as the moon, ethereal as a fairy, with exquisite eyebrows and eyes, every feature beautiful, with a delicate nose, cherry lips, phoenix eyes and well-shaped eyebrows, she possesses a unique beauty bestowed by heaven and earth, an unparalleled beauty that could topple kingdoms.
Even in the world of cultivation where beauties abound, her stunning beauty is astonishing.
However, on the fair and jade-like right cheek, there were specks of peach blossom, like peach blossoms on her face, making her beautiful and charming. This was precisely the manifestation of being cursed with the Peach Blossom Curse.
Seeing this, everyone was even more puzzled. Luo Shu was not old and should have been cultivating in the sect all along. How could she have gotten into trouble with this?
Tantai Mingshu was very worried. This was the future Dao Lord. Could it be that he would die halfway through his life?
"Master Uncle, Junior Sister, is there any way to resolve this? This Peach Blossom Curse is extremely dangerous!"
Po Yue Sword Master glanced at Tantai Mingshu and said, "What are you worried about now that Luo Shu has obtained the Juntian Sword?"
Tantai Mingshu was also confused by concern. Luo Shu had already comprehended the power of the Great Dao's fundamental laws during this period. She was the future Dao Lord, so how could she be swayed by personal feelings? Therefore, the Peach Blossom Curse was no longer a threat. On the contrary, it could nourish her appearance, even though Luo Shu didn't need it.
However, a solution still needs to be found. After all, he is the future Dao Lord, and it would be too frivolous for him to have a peach blossom face. People often judge others by their appearance, and he cannot always hide his face with a mask.
The peak masters all agreed, saying they would do their best to find a solution. Then they talked about going to Xiaotangshan Cave Heaven Secret Realm for training.
This secret realm is an ancient battlefield with many ancient relics. In the past, some disciples obtained magical artifacts and treasures inside, making a name for themselves and making the secret realm even more famous.
This secret realm requires a minimum cultivation level of mid-Golden Core and a maximum of mid-Nascent Soul. The realm suppresses cultivation levels and unifies the early-stage Golden Core realm. If a cultivation level is higher than mid-Nascent Soul, the person will be ejected from the realm. Those with lower cultivation levels cannot even enter the realm.
This secret realm opens only once every five hundred years, and all the major sects send people to guard it. This time, there are only two months until its opening, and many people are eager to go.
The opportunities inside are wonderful, but dangers also coexist.
The blood and evil aura left behind by the slaughter on the ancient battlefield, as well as various ghosts and heroic spirits, are not easy to deal with. One careless move and you could lose your life there. Therefore, each sect is extremely careful about who goes in. Those who go in are usually their core disciples whom they have cultivated with great effort. Losing even one of them there would be a huge loss.
That's what they're discussing right now. Luo Shu, with her early Nascent Soul cultivation, is naturally going. With this future Dao Lord accompanying her, the other peak masters are less worried about the safety of their disciples.
Moreover, as the son of the Great Dao, Dao Lord is quite lucky. When one attains the Dao, even his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven. Their disciples will likely also receive some opportunities. So, they should really compete for this spot.
Luo Shu has decided to go to the secret realm, and the other peak masters also need to go back and reserve disciple slots. This time, the slots are very scarce, and there might be another assessment. Time is still a bit tight.
The group then bid farewell to Sword Master Poyue and returned to handle their affairs.
Luo Shu went to stabilize her Nascent Soul realm in preparation for the trip to the Xiaotangshan Secret Realm.
