Unreliable Sword Immortal.

Chapter 201 One Hundred Sect Leader Wives

The seven Celestial Authority items do not provide specific star ratings or attribute information, but you can only choose one from the seven.

"Ugh, this is so difficult! Which one should I choose? Aside from the broom, they all seem pretty good. And this system is occasionally unreliable; I hope it can give me a hint when I start it up!"

Lu Chao scratched his head, and a system notification actually sounded in his mind: "Ding, the Occasionally Unreliable System has activated, issuing a task: Select the Broom Heavenly Authority in the Cave Heavenly Authority panel, and you will be rewarded with an extra Heavenly Authority x1!"

"As expected of you! Are you making me choose the worst one?"

Lu Chaoding thought that choosing a broom and getting an extra one as a freebie would be a very good deal.

Without hesitation, he immediately chose the Broom Celestial Power, and promptly received a system notification: "Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the special three-star Celestial Power [Broom]. Mission complete, reward you with an additional Celestial Power x1!"

"Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the five-star Celestial Authority [Sun]. The item has been automatically delivered to your storage space. Please check it out!"

Lu Chaoding quickly opened his storage space and soon discovered the Tianquan [Broom] and Tianquan [Sun]. He first checked the attribute information of the [Broom].

=====

Tianquan: Broom

Star rating: 3 stars

Occupation: General

Level: LV1

Current effect 1: Equipping this Celestial Authority grants a cursed attack effect. The target attacked will receive the negative status "Misfortune". This status can stack and lasts for five minutes. The higher the Celestial Authority level, the higher the duration and stack limit of the Misfortune status.

Current effect two: Equipping this Celestial Authority grants the broom aura, influencing all probabilistic events and behaviors within a hundred meters, causing the results to tend in a direction unfavorable to the affected person.

Note 1: Targets affected by the broom aura will drop all their equipment and items upon death.

Note 2: Negative effects such as "misfortune" brought by curse attacks cannot be purified or dispelled in advance.

Note 3: After equipping the Yinghuo Tianquan, the Tianquan Dharma Ring will appear behind you. You can turn off the Tianquan Dharma Ring at any time, and the Tianquan will still be effective.

Note 4: The duration of the Doom status is (the square of the Heavenly Authority level number × 5) minutes.

Note 6: The maximum stacking limit for the Misfortune state is (the square of the number of Heavenly Authority levels × 10) layers.

Note 7: After the stacks of the Misfortune status exceed 10, there is a chance of weakening. After the stacks of the Misfortune status exceed 100, there is a chance of sudden death. Please explore the details yourself.

Note 8: The broom aura also affects the wearer.

Note 9: Using the [Broom Jewel] can increase the Heavenly Authority level.

"Good heavens, what a jinx! Tsk tsk, cursed attack, broom aura! There's a chance of sudden death after a hundred layers of curse. If one attack applies a layer of curse, and you launch an attack with the ridiculously powerful Splitting Light Sword Technique, wouldn't you be able to easily stack the curse to the maximum? Then gamble on the target's sudden death..."

Lu Chaoding felt that the broom was still very powerful. He put on the Heavenly Power and activated the broom halo. A gray halo immediately appeared under his feet.

"Now that the broomstick aura has been activated, will everyone within a hundred meters of me, including myself, experience bad luck?"

After a moment's thought, Lu Chaoding quickly exchanged one hundred lottery tickets from the Dimensional Merit Shop, wanting to try his luck.

As a result, after using up the lottery ticket worth 10 gold coins, Lu Chaoding received one hundred compressed biscuits.

"They're all compressed biscuits! This is outrageous! Anyone who won this would be furious!"

Lu Chaoding had now personally experienced the power of the [Broom Aura], and he then looked at the attribute information of the [Sun].

====

Tianquan: The Sun

Star rating: Five stars

Occupation: General

Level: LV1

Current effect 1: When equipped with this Heavenly Power, the attack type is transformed into a special solar true fire attack, ignoring all damage reduction attributes such as the target's defense, resilience, and resistance, and will definitely cause true damage.

Current effect 2: When equipped with this Celestial Authority, after launching an attack, an additional True Fire Burning damage of (total damage of a single action × Celestial Authority level × 100%) will be dealt. After the True Fire Burning damage is triggered, there is a chance (Celestial Authority level × 10%) to destroy one piece of the target's equipment.

Current effect three: When equipped with this Heavenly Power, you can switch to the special attack state [Universal Illumination]. After entering the [Universal Illumination] state, all of the wearer's attacks will be transformed into area-of-effect attacks, and the damage caused will be shared by the targets within the area.

Current effect four: Equipping this Heavenly Power allows you to switch to a special attack state called "Radiance". When in the "Radiance" state, the wearer's attacks will heal the target.

Note 1: The [Universal Illumination] and [Radiance] states can be stacked.

Note 2: After entering [Rejuvenation], the True Fire Burning damage and subsequent special effects will no longer be triggered.

Note 3: Using the [Sun Gem] can upgrade the level of the [Sun Celestial Authority]. The five-star Celestial Authority can be upgraded to LV12 at most.

====

"This Tianquan is amazing! Even though it's only level one, it can replace Yinghuo. No wonder it's a five-star Tianquan!"

Lu Chao was thrilled. He immediately replaced [Yinghuo] with [Sun], and then went to the training room to test the power of the new Tianquan.

If we disregard the fact that the Sun's True Fire can destroy the target's equipment, in terms of output capability alone, the LV1 five-star Tianquan [Sun] is no match for the three-star [Yinghuo].

[Yinghuo] can bring a second explosion, which can increase the total damage by more than two times.

The five-star level 1 [Sun] can only double the total damage.

However, the Sun undoubtedly has higher growth potential and more functions. If it can be upgraded to LV2, it can completely suppress the Doubt.

Lu Chaoding really liked the two attack states, [Universal Illumination] and [Radiance]. Switching to the [Universal Illumination] state allowed him to unleash a wide range of group damage, while [Radiance], combined with the Yin-Yang Sword Immortal trait, made him the strongest healer.

As for the power of the broom, Lu Chaoding also tested it. He found that the sword shadow attack could indeed add a bad luck status to the target, so his casual strike could stack the bad luck status of the target to the maximum, which is 10 layers.

However, due to this upper limit, Lu Chaoding is currently unable to witness the [Weakness] and [Sudden Death] states brought about by the curse attack.

Generally speaking, unless the [Yinghuo] skill is upgraded to LV4 or higher, and can easily apply more than 100 stacks of the Misfortune status to the target to trigger the sudden death status, there is no need to equip the Tianquan skill.

After careful consideration, Lu Chaoding finally equipped the five-star Tianquan [Sun] and put away the three-star [Yinghuo] and [Broom].

After a while, he began to seriously observe his own grotto.

The transformation from a cave dwelling to a grotto heaven represents the expansion from a closed, small space into a smaller world.

Lu Chaoding opened the cave management panel and found that the ground area of ​​his cave had reached 3 square kilometers. Centered on the original small mountain, a mountain peak appeared in the east, west, south and north, and with various plants, it formed a special mountain landform.

The original cave dwelling hill has grown much larger, and the Nut Secret Realm is still on it. The original cave dwelling courtyard has now become the only very spacious square in this cave world.

The effect of "outstanding people and beautiful land" is also enhanced in this cave. Specifically, all players in this cave will have their cultivation value increase slowly, about one point per second, and the cultivation value required to break through the bottleneck will be reduced to 5%!

The bottleneck here refers to the level hurdles, such as level 11, level 21, level 31, and so on!

Since it's a level hurdle, the cultivation required to cross it is enormous, often ten, dozens, or even more times higher than the cultivation required to upgrade to the previous level. The effect of the cave heaven reduces it to 5%, and combined with Lu Chaoding's 35 mysterious enlightenments, breaking through the bottleneck becomes a very simple matter for Lu Chaoding in his cave heaven, and he can take far fewer pills.

Lu Chaoding found the Spirit Fruit in the Cave Square.

Lingqi Guo was very excited. His cave dwelling was upgraded to a grotto heaven, which brought him great benefits. His weapon-refining skills improved greatly, and he was awarded the title of "Weapon-Refining Master," truly becoming a master of both alchemy and weapon-refining.

Lingqi Guo told Lu Chaoding that after the cave was upgraded to a grotto heaven, all the free-range earth spirits were upgraded by one level, and now the lowest level is LV3.

He also suggested that Lu Chaoding name the four peaks in the east, west, south, and north as Azure Dragon Mountain, White Tiger Mountain, Vermilion Bird Mountain, and Black Tortoise Mountain, and that the earth deities of Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise be released onto these four peaks respectively.

"The Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise are all high-level Earthly Deities. Judging from their attributes, the Azure Dragon seems suitable for a Sword God, the White Tiger for a Sword Saint, the Vermilion Bird for a Sword Immortal, and the Black Tortoise for a Sword Demon..."

Thinking of this, Lu Chaoding wanted to give some benefits to the sect's disciples.

It's true that he has so many good things that he can't help but want to show them off.

After spending half a day exploring his own grotto, Lu Chaoding returned to Hongchen Seven Realms Mountain and used the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise as rewards for the first clear of the Treasure Dragon Mysterious Heaven high difficulty level in the quest hall. This immediately inspired a large number of players to farm the Treasure Dragon Manual defense game.

A day later, Lu Chaoding received some good news.

The Spirit Fruit deciphered the recipe for the Purple Mansion Pill from the LV7 Heavenly Eight Trigrams Furnace.

According to the instructions given by the Spirit Fruit, taking one [Purple Mansion Pill] will yield 300,000 cultivation points, which is six times the effect of one Treasure Dragon Pill.

Lu Chaoding immediately went to collect the materials for alchemy, and it took him a whole day to finally gather them all.

Less than five minutes later, the alchemy master Lingqi Guo had refined a batch of Purple Mansion Pills.

Lu Chaoding then resumed his boring daily routine of completing tasks, taking drugs, and completing more tasks, until Xiang Rudan woke up.

"This guy's finally awake. Should we take him to Qilin Cliff?"

As Lu Chao was pondering this, he suddenly received a system notification: "Ding, the Sword Realm Walker is about to arrive at Hongchen Seven Realms Mountain, triggering the special plot [Sword Realm Walker]. Due to the spread of your fame, you have been recognized as a young talent by Kun Manman, the island lord of Kunlun Island. Please contact the Sword Realm Walker from Kunlun Island to advance the plot."

"Ding! Notification: All those who roam the Sword Realm are extraordinary sword cultivators, with a minimum level of 61!"

"What's going on? A Sword World Walker..."

Lu Chaoding was slightly startled. He immediately remembered that Ye Xuntian had once introduced him to Kun Manman, one of the four extraordinary people. It seemed that this extraordinary person was responsible for "sending wives". Those who gained her approval would be assisted by her disciples, who were called sword walkers.

"Could it be that the sect leader's wife is coming?"

After a moment's thought, Lu Chaoding temporarily abandoned his plan to go to sea with Xiang Rudan. He went to the mountain gate to look out, and soon, streaks of colorful light appeared in the sky.

"You're here?"

Lu Chao narrowed his eyes, and in his field of vision appeared a series of female sword cultivators who were flying on their swords.

As he watched, Lu Chaoding felt that something was wrong.

Why are there so many?

What's going on?

Is it...

Lu Chaoding recalled his hundred times of fame spreading, and a bold idea popped into his head. He patted his chest and said, "Could it be that a hundred sect leader wives have been sent to me!"

At this moment, the fastest flying sword immortal had already entered the territory of Hongchen Seven Realms Mountain.

This was a woman dressed in a light blue palace gown. Her name was Lan E. At this moment, she stood on a flying sword, coldly looking towards Hongchen Seven Realms Mountain. She raised her right arm slightly and said, "Fellow junior sisters, we have arrived at Hongchen Seven Realms Mountain!"

"Is this the Seven Realms Mountain of the Primordial Dust?"

"Is this the headquarters of a reliable sword sect?"

"Where is the reliable sect leader?"

"Senior Sister, how should we proceed to enter the mountain gate directly?"

One by one, the women in palace attire stood around Lan E, gazing at Hongchen's Seven Realms Mountain, but they did not fly directly there.

Lan E said, "This mountain is mysterious. Those two golden lions and the three auspicious clouds in the sky seem to have gained sentience and are guarding the mountain gate?"

"Hey, looking at it closely, it's true!"

"Although this sect is only third-rate, it is protected by spiritual creatures, which is quite remarkable."

"Our master asked us to assist the reliable sect leader Lu Chaoding. I really don't know what kind of person Lu Chaoding is."

The Sword Walkers remained suspended in mid-air outside the Seven Realms Mountain of Hongchen, but their arrival attracted many players.

"Hmm, what brings such a group of young, beautiful, and elegant NPC women here?"

Dugu Tian was about to set sail when he stepped into the void and used his divine speed to teleport in mid-air, almost teleporting to the center of the group of sword beings.

Lan E noticed the clumsy Dugu Tian, ​​beckoned to him, and said, "You must be from the Reliable Sword Sect. Please inform your sect leader that we, the hundred sword warriors, have come to join the Reliable Sword Sect on behalf of our master. In the future, we will all be the sect leader's wives."

"What?"

Dugu Tian was a little confused and scratched his head, saying, "You're here to see Brother Ding? What do you mean? Are you all going to become the sect leader's wives?"

Lan E nodded to the group of women in palace attire.

Dugu Tian curled his lips and said, "What kind of plot is this? Such a good thing? What exactly did Brother Ding do? A hundred sect leader wives! Tsk tsk, ladies, is there anyone willing to be an elder's wife?"

At that moment, Lu Chao, riding the Great Xuan Sword, had already come to meet them.

At this moment, Lu Chaoding was wearing two layers of battle armor and carrying seven flying insect swords on his back. His attire was somewhat incongruous. He proudly puffed out his chest, looked at the hundred women in palace attire in front of him, and said, "I am Lu Chaoding, the reliable leader of the Sword Sect. I welcome all of you ladies to enter the sect."
