Chapter 92

: Everyone was shocked

Simply put, it was not considered anything worth mentioning, and the j.a.panese had blown it out of proportion.

Lu Xuan had seen too many ultimate skills and techniques back in his past life, and he deemed the Tsubame Gaes.h.i.+ hardly worth anything special.

However, to the others, that skill was sufficiently shocking.

The Tsubame Gaes.h.i.+ was a supreme j.a.panese kendo move that many had heard even if they had never seen it.

It was also said that those who had seen it were all dead.

Yet, Lu Xuan came out of a fight, having faced that move, totally unscathed. Furthermore, he had been able to replicate the move within mere moments.

What he did was surreal.

It was dead silent. There were only noises from bugs and birds of the woods.

Everyone nodded at that moment, apparently having accepted what was said. To everyone present, Lu Xuan was like a G.o.d.

To be put precisely, what he did matched how they saw him.

A man in his early twenties was somehow capable of such frightening feats. For most people, they would not have been able to reach this level of cultivation at such an age, even if they were to start training before they were born.

That was unless the cultivator in question had unparalleled talents, a one-in-a-million genius.

Such people remembered everything they have picked up, and what Lu Xuan did fit the description of such a genius just fine.

It was just like how the Four Heavenly Kings had five members.

The crowd quickly thought of explanations to rationalize the surreal feat that Lu Xuan had just pulled.

“Petty tricks. He could do it because he’s extremely fast. When you people reach the next level, such abilities will become an everyday thing,” Lu Xuan said plainly.

“A National Guardian. We actually have a National Guardian in the province!” someone exclaimed in shock.

This fact still felt surreal when one thought about it.

A National Guardian represented someone who was able to defend or suppress an entire nation single-handedly. Back in ancient times, someone like that would have been deemed a G.o.d on Earth, someone not even government authorities dared to touch. The only sensible thing to do was to get them on the government’s side.

They were so rare that one such figure might not appear in hundreds, maybe even in a thousand years.

Things would not have been as difficult as before when it came to such matters. The planet was beginning to go back to how it was before. Everyone felt cultivation was not a lot easier than it had once been.

Martial Arts Legends were almost truly just the stuff of legends, even if it was a level that was unattainable. Yet, at present, there were already several such figures in this one province alone.

In the past, an entire nation with that same amount of Martial Arts Legends would have been considered to be in a golden age.

Furthermore, it was only the warriors at the moment, and the Awakened ones had not been taken into account yet. Awakened ones were capable of blitzing through cultivation at frightening speeds, even while at early levels.

A Martial Arts Legend would have shot to fame all over the country, yet they were only esteemed figures back in their home provinces in modern times. But then again, National Guardians remained extremely rare nonetheless.

At the very least, it was the case for those people.

“I always thought that the first National Guardian in the province would be that guy from the Special Task Force or Master Bushuo from the Southern Shaolin Temple. h.e.l.l, I never expected the guy would be Lu Xuan instead.”

Everyone was thoroughly rattled deep down.

It was especially so in the case of Yang Chengsi, who was feeling extremely regretful about his previous actions. He had been looking at the world through a slit and had grossly underestimated the giant before him, thinking that he could throw his weight around just because Lu Xuan was young.

Come to think of it, I had almost dug my own grave back there, he thought.

He was compelled to think of ways to make things up to Lu Xuan and bury the hatchet. Lu Xuan might not harbor any ill will towards Yang Chengsi at the moment, but if he ever did, Yang Chengsi would definitely end up dead for sure.

It was precisely due to him being a Martial Arts Legends that he knew so well just how terrifying the National Guardian level, which was above the Martial Arts Legend Level, was. A vagrant cultivator like him would not have been able to reach the National Guardian level under conventional circ.u.mstances, even if he were to train for another ten years.

Furthermore, it did not seem like reaching such a level would have been of any use. Even the likes of Aida Ryosuke had not been able to fight Lu Xuan for long, after all.

Lu Xuan was probably a terrifying behemoth, even among National Guardians.

“Master Buyi,” Lu Xuan called.

“What is it, Mr. Lu?”

Monk Buyi went up to Lu Xuan immediately. He dared not behave in any way that suggested that he was superior.

“I heard that there are many masters in Shaolin Temple who are very knowledgeable about Buddhism. I wonder if any of the masters would be interested in this?” Lu Xuan turned his hand over and revealed a wooden fish in his palm.

Lu Xuan did not bother concealing the fact that he had a spatial power item on his person; he wasn’t afraid if anybody else knew. Anyone who dared to have any ideas about it would practically be digging their own grave.

“This…” Monk Buyi’s pupils contracted somewhat, and his breathing became rushed.

There was no doubt that the wooden fish was a power item.

Furthermore, it was one of Buddhist nature.

The monk himself was already at Level Six Martial Arts Legend Level, so his training definitely involved the mind and the spirit. As such, he was able to see that the wooden fish was anything but ordinary.

The wooden fish emanated a faint Buddhist aura, making it obvious that it was probably an item that belonged to some master who had infused the item with their power for years. This power was gradually transmitted into the item in some ways.

“You’re correct. This is indeed a power item, one that I chanced upon before. I wonder if you’re interested in it, Master Buyi?” Lu Xuan said.

“I definitely am!” Monk Buyi said immediately.

He did not bother beating around the bush at all, because he knew any front would have been pointless before Lu Xuan. Also, doing so would have only made him a walking joke.

He, too, knew just how precious the wooden fish was, so much so that it was impossible that it belonged to just one master before. Knocking on such a wooden fish when chanting sutras would have enabled Buddhist pract.i.tioners to get into the zone very quickly, which would then benefit their cultivation greatly.

That power item was even more precious to such pract.i.tioners than any other common power item.

Lu Xuan nodded with a grin. The wooden fish would have greatly benefitted Buddhist pract.i.tioners but was of limited use to him. Furthermore, his level of mind, at the moment, was such that he had no use for such items at all.

“Alright, I shall sell the wooden fish to the temple for 100 million yuan,” Lu Xuan said plainly.

“Alright, we are taking it,” Monk Buyi replied right away. While 100 million was an astronomical amount of money to common folk, the Southern Shaolin Temple—a renowned clan with a long history—would be able to ama.s.s it, although not without some measure of difficulty.

However, the difficulty was nothing compared to the wooden fish right before the monk’s eyes.

Furthermore, his brother-in-training—Master Bushuo—was at the precipice of making a breakthrough. Becoming a National Guardian would now only be a matter of time with the help of the wooden fish.

Once the Southern Shaolin Temple had a National Guardian in charge, their supreme status in the province would increase greatly, so much so that they could even be of equal status to the Northern Shaolin Temple.

“Well then, the wooden fish is yours. I’ll send you guys my account, and you only need to send me the money within three days,” Lu Xuan continued.
