Elf: How do you cultivate immortality in the elf world?

Chapter 376 The Dragon Soul Sword's Dance Troupe.

In addition to the characteristics of elves, the damage resistance of the single-edged sword sheath is among the best of all normal elves.

Of course, like most Steel-type Pokémon, the magic resistance of the single-blade sheath is still pitifully low.

Lu Li asked in confusion, "Single Sword Sheath, do you feel any difference between yourself and a normal single sword sheath?"

The single-edged sword sheath pondered in confusion, "Am I stronger than a normal single-edged sword sheath?"

Hmm! That is a difference.

However, that wasn't the difference he was looking for.

Lu Li doesn't yet know the difference between the Dragon Soul Sword and the single-scabbard in this world, but he guesses it's the difference between a normal Pokémon and a shiny Pokémon.

However, compared to the natal flying swords in the world of cultivation, the Dragon Soul Sword is much more special.

First and foremost is growth potential.

Normally, a natal flying sword is a growth artifact, and its strength increases as the master cultivates.

But the Dragon Soul Sword is different; it can cultivate itself and becomes stronger incredibly fast.

Secondly, a normal natal flying sword has no spirit; at least before the Nascent Soul stage, a cultivator's natal flying sword has no spirit.

This is the difference between the Dragon Soul Sword and a normal natal flying sword.

Lu Li felt that at this point, some professional equipment should be used.

Thinking of this, Lu Li took out his phone, which came with a Pokédex.

Then it scanned the Dragon Soul Sword.

Elf name: Single Sword Sheath.

Attributes: ghost, steel
Characteristics: No defense, hard claws (increases the power of contact-type moves).

Level: Champion Peak.

Skills mastered: Awakened Power (Dragon), all skills (all skills that can be learned from the single sword sheath have been mastered).

Description: A powerful, shimmering single-edged sword sheath, belonging to a special individual within its race, and therefore not of racial reference value.

According to the Pokédex, the Dragon Soul Sword is indeed a genuine single-scabbard, its only unique feature being its shimmering appearance.

As for why its shining characteristic is hard claws, it may be due to the Triceratops soul.
However, both of these characteristics are quite suitable for a single sword sheath.

Freya and Vi curiously leaned closer to the phone to check the data on the single sword sheath.

"Truly powerful!" Freya exclaimed sincerely.

Wei nodded in deep agreement.

Dujiansheath nodded with great satisfaction at the two women's praise.

This is the result of his efforts over 10 epochs. If it weren't for the damned restrictions, Dragon Soul Sword even felt that he might be a sect leader-level elf by now.

Freya suddenly seemed intrigued and said, "Speaking of which, Lu Li, do you think we could do this?"

"What do you mean?" Lu Li looked at Freya with a puzzled expression.

"If we send our own spirits back in time and then bring them back, will we become stronger quickly?" Freya asked eagerly.

Lu Li's face darkened upon hearing this, and he retorted, "First of all, can you bear to see your companions separated from you for several epochs, letting them suffer the pain of loneliness?"

Freya: "..."

Upon hearing this, Freya shook her head, her face pale.

I was so focused on getting stronger that I completely forgot about what the natural birds were thinking.

"Secondly, what's the difference between doing this and forcing seedlings to grow faster?" Lu Li continued to ask this thought-provoking question.

"I..." Freya opened her mouth, but then stopped herself from speaking.

Looking at Freya, whose face was pale and who looked like she could cry at any moment, Lu Li explained gently, "The Dragon Soul Sword is different. First of all, when it was sent to the past, there were no living spirits yet, so it wasn't a real spirit."

"Secondly, I did this for the birth of the Dragon Soul Sword." Lu Li had another reason he didn't mention: the Dragon Soul Sword was his natal flying sword, and could even be considered a part of his body.

With such a bond, he wasn't worried at all that the Dragon Soul Sword wouldn't recognize him as its master.

But Freya and the others are different. If they were to imitate them in the same way, they would only gain one enemy.

This is why those who try to imitate me will die!

After dissuading the two girls from cheating, Lu Li then remembered his current predicament.

Lu Li said gently, "Dragon Soul Sword, let me give you a name first. From now on, you will be called Long Ling'er, and your nickname will be Xiao Ling."

The Dragon Soul Sword nodded; it was quite satisfied with the name, as its meaning matched its origin.

Lu Li asked, "Xiao Ling, are you the king of this place?"

"You could say that." Dragon Soul Sword nodded and then explained, "This place was originally just a mass grave. Due to the influence of the evil energy, the ghost-type Pokémon here are all very violent and highly aggressive."

"Later, because I was bored, I thought about whether I should change my environment, since I didn't want to change myself to adapt to this environment."

Lu Li couldn't help but nod.

very good, very powerful.

If you can't adapt to the environment, change the environment, not yourself.

"Doesn't the evil energy in this place affect you?" Lu Li asked curiously.

“No, because I am special.” The sword sheath shook its head and then explained, “When I was born, I gained some of the knowledge I had learned from you, and after studying it a little, I gained a little bit of special ability.”

"What special ability?" Lu Li asked cooperatively.

The Dragon Soul Sword said in a serious tone, "I can absorb evil energy to become stronger!"

Holy crap, you heretic!
Your master hasn't even embarked on the path of evil cultivation yet, and you've already switched to evil cultivation?

In the world of cultivation, evil cultivators are universally condemned not because they only take shortcuts and others are envious.

It's because heretical practices cause too much harm to others.

For example, there are unorthodox cultivators who cultivate malevolent energy. These people who take the wrong path sometimes even deliberately create places of absolute malevolence in order to cultivate malevolent energy.

Events like Bai Qi's, which resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people, might not happen every day in the cultivation world, but they would happen at least every year, and the number of deaths would only be greater.

This is only the lethality against ordinary lives.

Secondly, there's the polluting nature of evil energy. In the cultivation world, this stuff is similar to heavy metal pollution. Spiritual energy is like a river, and everyone relies on this river to make a living. But these evil cultivators are dumping nuclear wastewater into the river.

How can other legitimate cultivators stand this?
Finally, there's the issue of instability. The reason why cultivators use spiritual energy instead of demonic energy is because the side effects of cultivating with demonic energy are too great.

Becoming possessed by evil spirits is the least of your worries; it will only bring harm to yourself. The vast majority of evil cultivators who rely on malevolent energy for cultivation will have very unstable emotions, and almost all of them are secretly abstaining from beef.

One or two people who don't eat beef is fine, but when groups of people who don't eat beef appear, the world will collapse.

However, these drawbacks only apply to the world of cultivation; this is the world of elves, under the jurisdiction of Arceus.

The malevolent energy in this world is merely a negative emotional energy to elves, a type of ghost-attribute energy.

Although these malevolent energies can also affect the temperament of elves, those affected are easily purified or even healed. This is a major difference between the two worlds.

If this were set in a cultivation world, someone who could purify unorthodox cultivators would at least be a reincarnated Buddha.

"You... seem very calm," Lu Li asked, puzzled.

Dragon Soul Sword explained proudly, "That's because I know how to scientifically absorb evil energy."

Land from:"???"

Just as Lu Li was completely bewildered, a series of clear bell sounds suddenly came from outside.

At that moment, the whole world seemed to quiet down, leaving only the crisp and melodious sound of the bell.

ten minutes later.

The sword sheath opened its eyes with a look of delight: "That's it."

"This is... a healing ringtone? No! This is a group healing ringtone!" Lu Li looked at the single sword sheath in surprise.

“That’s right! In order to better dispel the negative emotions in the hearts of those elves, I hold a ghost convention every week, and I have also specially gathered some wind chimes as a dance troupe.”

Holy crap, a song and dance troupe!

Lu Li stared at the single sword sheath with a look of shock.

Is this his destined flying sword? He really knows how to enjoy life!

"The Crouching Dragon Forest is vast. Any wind chime that has learned the Healing Wish and Healing Bell can join the dance troupe. They're much more comfortable here than outside," Dujianshe proudly boasted.

Freya, who was standing next to her, suddenly realized, "No wonder I always hear such a nice ringtone when I tell stories here."

"However, this is a pretty good symbiotic relationship. You provide shelter for the wind chimes who have little combat power, while the wind chimes dispel negative statuses for you."

"Well done!" Lu Li didn't hold back his praise.

It's quite impressive that Dujianshe could come up with this idea on his own.

"That's right! This is the result of my efforts over several eras. In the beginning, wind chimes that could heal bells were very hard to find." The sword sheath sighed as it recalled the past.

Back then, to avoid being affected by negative emotions, it used to carry several wind chimes with it.

If it weren't for the fact that the sword sheath and the wind chime can't lay eggs, Lu Li might have brought back a whole nest of sword sheaths when he found it.

"Your Ghost Kingdom is doing quite well," Lu Li continued, praising the empire conquered by Dujianshe.

Dujiansheath smiled modestly, but the pride and joy on his face were hard to hide.

Suddenly remembering that she might have to leave soon, Dujianshe looked at Lu Li pitifully and asked, "By the way, Master, can you take my dance troupe with you when you go back? I'll miss them so much."

"You only want to take the wind chimes away?" Lu Li joked with a smile.

The sword sheath nodded decisively.

The sword sheath felt nothing about abandoning the Ghost Kingdom.

After all, it is the Ghost Kingdom that needs him, not the other way around.

Moreover, whether it exists in the Ghost Kingdom or not is no longer of much significance.

“I have no objection if the wind chimes are willing.” Lu Li nodded.

The Chimechoes, capable of releasing collective healing bells, can be transformed into an entire Pokémon army simply by assigning them trainers.

Wind Chime has little offensive power, but it is an excellent support unit, especially in removing negative status effects.

"By the way, how many Ghost-type Pokémon can fight in the Ghost Kingdom?" Lu Li also remembered the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.

He had been worrying about where to find so many Ghost-type Pokémon, and now, just as he was taking a nap, his dream came true.

"There are many more. Before I became the ruler here, every Ghost-type Pokémon was extremely aggressive. Even though they're not as bad now, their abilities are still there." (Sword Sheath) She had roughly guessed Lu Li's purpose.

After all, the Myriad Soul Banner can also be used as a natal magic weapon, and as the sword spirit of the natal flying sword, the Dragon Soul Sword naturally knows about the Myriad Soul Banner.

Upon hearing this, Lu Li sighed inwardly, "It's a pity that the Myriad Soul Banner hasn't been refined yet."

Lu Li wanted to take the entire Ghost Kingdom with him, after all, it was the foundation that Dragon Soul Sword had worked so hard to build.

It would be such a waste to just throw it away like that.

"I wonder if Celebi would be willing to help with this." Lu Li wondered if he should move the Crouching Dragon Forest to the Mysterious Realm of a Thousand Faces at night.

If the two are combined, the Mysterious Realm of a Thousand Faces might be upgraded to a medium-sized secret realm.

With this in mind, Lu Li had already made up his mind.

“We can talk about other things when we get back. Let’s go back to the surface first,” Lu Li suggested.

He still needs to go to the rabbi to discuss whether he can move.

Long eagerly anticipating the outside world, Dragon Soul Sword led the way.

Led by the Dragon Soul Sword, the group quickly returned to the ground.

Looking at the familiar temple before him, Lu Li called out loudly, "Shrabi! Are you there?"

The summoned shurabi flew out of the time tunnel.

Upon seeing Lu Li and the Dragon Soul Sword beside him, Celebi realized that his prank might have failed and pouted, "I didn't expect you two to recognize each other so quickly. This is not fun at all."

Rabbi was clearly not in a good mood when he didn't get to see the excitement.

Lu Li also noticed this.

Lu Li, his lips twitching slightly, was speechless. Most of the cute magical beasts in his mental world were actually cunning, with Celebi being a prime example.

“Shrabah, there’s something I’d like to ask you for help with,” Lu Li said.

The shrub did not agree, but looked at Lu Li with a smile.

Lu Li suggested in a considerate tone, "I think the Wolong Forest at night would have a significant impact on you. Why don't you move the Wolong Forest away at night? I know a friend whose secret realm is quite suitable."

"Should we move the Crouching Dragon Forest away at night?" Shirabi asked thoughtfully.

If that special single-edged sword sheath is gone, the ghost kingdom it left behind will indeed be a big problem.

"It's possible, since this time period was originally taken from the original timeline. However, I must remind you that the Wolong Forest is still very dangerous at night, and it may even assimilate the surrounding environment. Are you sure your friend's secret realm can withstand the Wolong Forest at night?"

Lu Li didn't know if a small secret realm could exist in the Crouching Dragon Forest at night, but there was only one way he could think of to pack up and take the Ghost Kingdom away.

"Why don't you leave your contact information so I can confirm with my friend when I get back?" Lu Li suggested cautiously.

"There's no need to go to all that trouble, just wait for me."

After saying this, the shrineman flew into the time tunnel.

A moment later, Silavi flew out of the time tunnel again.

“I went to a future timeline.” Celebi dropped a bombshell as soon as he came out.
