Chapter 8: Becoming a Laborer Afterwards
Five hours, for the vast majority of ordinary Monarchs, passed without incident.
By the end of the event, Xiao Jun could only eliminate thirty-five Giant Mouths with a single sword strike, and a hint of dissatisfaction appeared on his otherwise calm face.
This made Lian Yun both amused and exasperated. "Brother Jun, this sword technique has certainly improved. If you could harness Earth Power in the outside world, its power would undoubtedly increase a hundredfold or more. Right now, it's merely constrained by this local environment; there's no need to feel inadequate."
Xiao Jun nodded, but his expression did not brighten significantly.
Lian Yun felt somewhat speechless because he knew that Xiao Jun was comparing his swordsmanship to that of the Six Half Emperors.
The Six Half Emperors could effortlessly annihilate tens of thousands of Giant Mouths, and their full-force attacks could reach several million in destructive capacity—enough to devastate an entire region. Comparing himself to them? Xiao Jun was perhaps being overly ambitious and setting his expectations too high.
Lian Yun sighed. "If Brother Jun could alter the state of the Spiritual Energy Greatsword, perhaps it would enhance the sword technique's power."
Lian Yun's Spiritual Energy Greatsword possessed effects similar to external Earth Spirit Energy; it could be manipulated, but while external Earth Spirit Energy came from the outside world, the Spiritual Energy Greatsword originated from within oneself.
The difference was that calling upon Earth Spirit Energy did not consume much of one's own resources. However, fully unleashing the Spiritual Energy Greatsword would result in significant losses of both Spiritual Energy and Mental Power.
Spiritual Energy was not much of an issue; when externalized, it essentially became external Spiritual Energy. But a substantial loss of Mental Power could lead to a drastic reduction in combat effectiveness.
In a safe environment, this was not a major concern. However, during combat with an enemy, it could pose a fatal risk. Therefore, if the Spiritual Power Greatsword could be formed while minimizing the use of Mental Power, it would help mitigate this danger.
Yet in Yin Yang City, although the air was pleasant, Earth Spirit Energy was severely restricted. If there wasn't enough consciousness during the formation of the Spiritual Energy Greatsword, the Spiritual Energy within the Greatsword might be absorbed by the Earth Formation.
So how can one truly enhance the power of swordsmanship? This is something that Xiao Jun needs to ponder deeply.
At this point, Xiao Jun's expression improved somewhat.
Beside him, Qiu ChujI and Elder Mei couldn't help but nod in agreement. Then Qiu ChujI asked, "What are the plans of the White Cloud Worshipper moving forward?"
"I plan to meditate and cultivate for a while," Lian Yun replied, looking a bit puzzled at Qiu ChujI.
Elder Mei smiled slightly and said, "After the Clear and Bright Festival, the various Fortresses will frequently experience Beast Tides, and even the Twelve Cities will often face Chaos Beast Tides. Initially, we thought that if the White Cloud Worshipper had no pressing matters, perhaps you could come to the Xianjian Sect to help us fend off some of these threats."
"That would be fine!" Lian Yun nodded, though his expression was somewhat awkward.
No wonder this Qingming Event seemed relatively safe; it turned out Yin Yang City was offering a sweet deal first before asking for someone to risk their life.
"Then shall I notify the White Cloud Worshipper when the time comes?"
Lian Yun had not paid much attention at first, but now he shook his head slightly and said helplessly, "Senior, please just call me Yun or Friend!"
"Haha! Then I shall call you Friend Yun!" Qiu ChujI replied with a friendly smile.
Lian Yun nodded and then looked around, saying, "All of you seniors may also refer to me as Friend Yun."
Regardless of whether they were Medium Monarchs or Initial Monarchs, everyone present was significantly older than Lian Yun. He truly did not appreciate them addressing him as the White Cloud Worshipper.
Hearing this, everyone smiled kindly.
If in the past they were not entirely satisfied with Lian Yun becoming a member of the Xianjian Sect, after witnessing Lian Yun's combat abilities firsthand this time, those reservations had vanished.
Now, Lian Yun not only did not look down on them because of his own strength but also humbly referred to them as seniors. As someone who could at least become a Peerless Expert, they naturally showed him enough goodwill.
At that moment, Zhuang Wuxue approached with nearly two hundred stunning beauties and lightly laughed, "If only Bai Yun You were a girl."
Behind her, dozens of beauties nodded silently, causing Lian Yun to shiver involuntarily.
Zhuang Wuxue continued, "Bai Yun You is from Xianyang City; it would be only right for him to help us weak women of Yaochi!"
This woman, seemingly no older than thirty, stared intently at Lian Yun, while the hundred or so women behind her wore expressions of fragility and a plea for protection.
This made many Monarchs from the Xianjian Sect cough awkwardly, their faces slightly flushed. It was known that these strong-willed women would never bow their heads even in front of a Peerless Monarch; when had they ever displayed such weakness?
It wasn't that they genuinely wanted Lian Yun to become Yaochi's first 'son-in-law'; they simply wished to build a good relationship with him. However, the sight of over a hundred stunning beauties acting this way was both enviable and awkward.
Lian Yun felt speechless; he truly had no idea how to handle this situation.
To refuse would be difficult since they were acquaintances and had a decent relationship. To agree felt like he would be devoured by these women until nothing was left.
However, Elder Mei seemed to have an unusual connection with Zhuang Wuxue. With a serious expression, he said, "Yaochi has always been on good terms with the Xianjian Sect. If Yaochi is in trouble, how could the Xianjian Sect not help?"
Zhuang Wuxue shot him an annoyed glance; in that fleeting moment, she truly exuded charm that was hard to resist. Even Elder Mei found himself momentarily stunned.
Meanwhile, Lian Yun calmed down and smiled slightly. "If Yaochi does not mind, you may inform me anytime."
He suddenly thought that there might be a need for Yaochi's assistance in the future. For instance, if the Peerless Demon Master really set up some Earth Formation, perhaps Le Yan, the Three Aunts, and the Sisters-in-law could temporarily come here to avoid the chaos of the world.
If they came, Yaochi might be their best refuge.
Upon hearing Lian Yun's words, over a hundred beauties brightened up, and Zhuang Wuxue directly handed over a Guest Elder Order.
Lian Yun was somewhat speechless at this; it seemed as if the other party had been prepared for this. Nevertheless, Lian Yun accepted the Guest Elder Order.
At that moment, the scenery around them shifted slightly, but within the imperial city, the Three Major Troops reappeared. At the same time, thousands of black long boxes descended, landing in the hands of everyone participating in the Dungeon.
"Three Thousand; however, for friends, it may not be enough," Zhuang Wuxue remarked in surprise as he looked at the number displayed on the box in Lian Yun's hand.
However, many High Emperors around them revealed envious and covetous expressions.
Three Thousand Mental Potions could indeed be described as a fortune. It was known that by the end of the year, during the Treasure Alliance's auction of hundreds of items, many Monarchs would go crazy trying to snatch them up. Even if converted to Diamond Spirit Coins at ordinary prices, it would almost be worth over three hundred thousand.
However, Lian Yun was only at the King's Realm; to use powerful attack techniques, he indeed needed more Mental Potions.
