In the world of demons and warriors, I slay demons through wordplay.

[O swordsman who could bend and stretch, you chose to kneel and respectfully kowtow three times to the corpse.]

Then you searched the entire graveyard, but unfortunately found no wine.

"It would be a miracle if there was any alcohol here," Li Qingchen retorted.

The master of the silver sword deeply agreed. He chose to forgive you and agreed to teach you swordsmanship, but at a significantly reduced level.

Unless you reward him with a fine wine in the future, he will not hand over all his martial arts skills and his precious sword to you.

Li Qingchen was both amused and exasperated: "I really don't know whether to say you're generous or stingy."

[Hint: You have obtained a martial arts manual: "Nine Swords of Soaring Void" (Beginner Level)]

Martial arts levels are divided into beginner, minor mastery, major mastery, and perfection.

You can improve your cultivation level by slaying demons and consuming precious elixirs.

[The master of the silver sword begins to teach you swordsmanship.]

"oh!"

Li Qingchen exclaimed in surprise.

He clearly felt a change in his body.

After practicing swordsmanship with all his heart, his body, which had been malnourished for many years, was now surging with power.

The blood and qi, which were originally stagnant, began to surge and boil continuously, rapidly opening up all the meridians;

The muscles beneath the cloth first expand and then contract, resulting in a final line that is as smooth and perfect as a sculpture.

She has undergone a complete transformation!

[With the support of your Sword Embryo talent, you're learning very quickly...]

[Current Martial Arts Level: Lingxu Nine Swords (Minor Success)]

"Incredible! I can use the martial arts I learned in the world of words to slay demons in the real world."

Li Qingchen was full of praise.

Consuming attempts yields martial arts skills, and slaying demons grants more resurrection attempts, creating a virtuous cycle.

Of course, the pit just kept getting deeper and deeper.

The owner of the silver sword was astonished by your talent, saying you were the most talented disciple he had ever seen. He decided to bestow the sword upon you, and repeatedly instructed you not to forget to bring him a jug of fine wine.

[You accepted the request, you've mastered the Lingxu Sword Technique, and you're brimming with confidence.]

You've decided to leave the tomb and seek revenge on the living dead.

You respectfully kowtowed three more times, sprinkled water on the ground instead of wine, then took the silver sword and left the tomb.

You have arrived outside the grave.

[The living dead, who's been waiting for a rabbit to run into a tree stump, is happy to see you.]

The living dead are charging at you!

"Ha, times have changed, this is a good opportunity."

Instead of retreating, you advanced, sword in hand.

[Hint: The "Sword Master" talent effect has been triggered!]

[Sword Master: When your weapon is a sword, your cultivation level will temporarily increase along with your sword intent.]

You thrust out a sword, swift as the wind, piercing the throat of the living dead.

The living dead clutched his neck, his eyes wide open, dying with unseeing disbelief.

You have successfully slain the undead.

[Hint: The 'Plunder' talent effect has been triggered!]

[Plunder: Everything that dies by your sword can be refined by you.]

The living dead have no special talents or supernatural abilities; these have been converted into swordsmanship experience points for you.

Your swordsmanship has improved!

All three talent effects of the sword embryo have been triggered!

Li Qingchen was overjoyed:

"So this is what they call 'Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, never underestimate a young person...' huh?"

Before they could gloat for long, the situation suddenly took a sharp turn for the worse.

The fallen, undead figure tumbled down the landslide.

You've alerted the army of the undead!

Nearly a thousand undead are rushing towards you.

Li Qingchen was exasperated. Damn it, is this never going to end?

[You unleashed three swift sword strikes at the nearest undead, each strike aimed at their throat; three undead fell dead by your blade.]

[Hint: The 'Plunder' talent effect has been triggered!]

Your swordsmanship has improved!

"Improving your swordsmanship now is pointless; we should get out of here as quickly as possible!"

The army of the undead is incredibly diverse, including those that can run on two legs and those that can crawl on four legs, making it impossible for anyone to escape.

Your ankle has been grabbed by a living dead.

You've been dragged into an army of the undead.

Your death was extremely gruesome!

There was no way out, and he couldn't outrun them, so Li Qingchen accepted his fate.

The Lingxu Nine Swords have unpredictable moves and are great in one-on-one combat, but they lack area-of-effect (AOE) damage.

If the enemy outnumbers you, you'll have no choice but to make a hasty retreat.

Moreover, being chased by the army of the undead, Li Qingchen also realized another weakness of his own:

Without light-footed skills, you're slow!

The saying "it's all or nothing" applies here; there's no cost to trial and error, but at least you can always come back to life.

[You are dead, your soul is leaving your body, and you see the Black and White Impermanence, the messengers of death.]

[The Black and White Impermanence have seen you again, their expressions full of disgust.]

You were taken back to the mass grave by the Black and White Impermanence.

[Current remaining resurrection attempts: 1/3]

Li Qingchen thought to himself, "I only have one life left, I have to make the most of this opportunity."

Fighting battles without reviewing them is like standing still.

Li Qingchen began to formulate the next step of the plan:

"First of all, I shouldn't have been greedy for those three sword experience points; I should have just run away."

"And it's best to run towards areas with lots of graves, as this will increase the chances of triggering the 'Strong Luck' talent."

"However, there is a problem with this plan: I can only place my hopes on 'good luck'."

"If I don't acquire decent lightness skills or even more powerful sword techniques, I'll have to give up my third life."

Aside from taking a chance, there's no better way right now.

Just do it!

[You, filled with resentment, awaken in a mass grave.]

The fallen, undead figure tumbled down the landslide.

You've alerted the army of the undead!

This time, Li Qingchen didn't hesitate and immediately took off running.

Looking around, you spot a tomb that looks quite unusual.

[Hint: The "Strong Luck" talent has been triggered!]

"There's hope!"

Seeing that the "Strong Luck" was successfully triggered, Li Qingchen couldn't help but feel nervous.

However, they've only succeeded halfway. Whether they can escape the army of the undead depends on the specifics of this extraordinary encounter.

The army of the undead is hot on their heels.

Having already used two chances, you feel extremely exhausted, and the distance between you has rapidly shortened.

You had no choice but to run towards that special grave.

Although the tomb itself contained a hidden world, it could not withstand the relentless invasion of the army of the living dead.

【提示：坟墓剩余被攻克时间：09:59、09:58、09:57……】

"Holy crap, you can do that?"

Li Qingchen had thought that even if he couldn't get a suitable fortuitous encounter, he could still survive by relying on the system's protection.

The ending actually had a time limit, and it was only ten minutes long, short and weak.

Time was of the essence, so you immediately took action.

[Hint: The "Strong Luck" talent has been triggered!]

coming!

Li Qingchen's heart tightened.

You groped around in the dark tomb and finally found a corpse.

Judging from its size, this should be a spirit ape.

[You noticed a secret manual made of parchment on the ape's abdomen.]

[You were extremely excited, and although the ape didn't ask you to kowtow or pour wine, you still bowed to it as a sign of respect.]

You carefully picked up the manual, and saw five characters engraved on it: "The Primordial Heavenly Secret Technique".
