Chapter 296: 296, Catching the Moon Barehanded (Requesting monthly tickets at the end of the month!)

Inside the crystal, the reflection of the moon was beautiful.

Its color was not the same as the usual moon you see at night; it was an aqua color.

The Great Sects typically had their own favorite signature colors. For example, the color of the Demon Sect was black, from Sect Master Shen Yan down to the Outer Sect Disciples, they were all clad in black robes or skirts.

However, One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain preferred the aqua color.

The disciples from these two Sword Sects dressed in aqua robes, just like Ping Shanhai and Qian Zhengyi.

It was evident that the moon’s reflection in the well was a mark, and it was the “garden gate” of the “Moon in the Well”!

If you could withstand its test, you could go inside,

This test was referred to as “Moon Rush” by One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain.

However, the trolling players thought that “Catching the Moon” was a more appropriate term.

Whenever they talked about catching the moon, they thought of monkeys trying to catch the moon, as if everyone was a monkey.

What’s wrong with being King Jiji for once?

Anyway, the trolling players didn’t mind at all.

Ji Li took a glance at the moon’s reflection in the water and exclaimed, “It’s so beautiful!”

The moon’s reflection in the water indeed was beautiful because it was ethereal yet brilliant.

These two attributes seemed incompatible, yet they overlapped on it.

More importantly, the moon’s reflection carried a sword’s aura, which naturally felt familiar to Sword Cultivators.

Hearing her words, Lu Xun lowered his head to look at the moon’s reflection again. He felt indifferent, it did not move him at all.

“Is it really that beautiful? I don’t see it.” thought Lu Xun to himself.

Upon hearing Ji Li’s words, Ping Shanhai laughed and said, “This is the Sword Mark, left by our ancestors. It’s an amazing sign.”

After saying that, he turned to Ye Sui’an and said, “Sui An, why don’t you explain the details of this challenge.”

Ye Sui’an nodded, enthusiastically, like a tour guide, she began to explain it to Lu Xun.

The content of this challenge was consistent with what Lu Xun remembered, it did not deviate, just like when he faced the Ghost’s Grief.

What one needed to do in this challenge was to get close to the moon’s reflection.

The moon’s reflection seemed to be there, but actually, it was a deceptive distance – it was like a mirage.

The catch was, whether it was far or near really depended on the strength of your Sword Heart.

You would have to use your Sword Heart to attract it, get closer to it.

The stronger your Sword Heart, the closer you could get to it.

Usually, you reach out and activate your Sword Heart to get the moon’s reflection within ten meters which constituted a valid distance.

The reflection would then imprint a mark in your palm, which would act as a pass for the entrance of “Moon in the Well”.

Lu Xun glanced at Ji Li, gently patted her shoulder, and said, “Ji Li, you go first.”

“Okay!” Ji Li happily agreed.

She felt that it was good for her to go first, as it would allow Lu Xun to gauge the test and figure out how exactly it worked, which would be beneficial for his performance.

She was more than happy to contribute to Lu Xun’s progress.

Although she was overthinking, the actual reason Lu Xun let her go first was that he failed the previous Spirit Lamp test.

If he happened to ruin the Moon’s reflection as well, then little Li’zi wouldn’t be able to give her test.

It’s better to be safe, so let her go first.

After all, he had achieved the Great Perfection of Sword Heart, there’s no reason for him to fail the test. The only thing unknown was the final result.

Under everyone’s gaze, Ji Li walked up to the well, reached her hand into it, and then silently closed her eyes.

It was amazing, she found that even though her eyes were closed, as long as she activated her Sword Heart, she could “see” the moon’s reflection in the well!

“So this is the Sword Mark?” Ji Li thought to herself.

The founding patriarch of Sword Mountain, who could manage to make Boundary Monuments into spirits, would logically leave a Sword Mark with hidden mysteries, and this was nothing strange.

Fortunately, Ji Li’s talent was always great. When she sacrificed her brain to focus on her chest, she didn’t give up her cultivation talent.

She had already developed her Sword Heart, and currently, she was on the threshold of Sword Intent.

Therefore, under her guidance, the water in the well began to rise, and the reflection of the moon on the water surface grew closer and closer to her right hand as the well water rose…

“Not only is this moonlight not real, but the well water is not even real.” Lu Xun thought to himself.

Surprisingly, the well is dry, not producing any water.

This is identical to the dry well at the entrance of the Demon Sect’s Turtle’s Longevity.

All belonging to the dry path.

In an instant, the moonlight was less than ten meters away from Ji Li.

When it came to the range of ten meters, the rise of the well water began to slow down, but it was still steadily increasing.

Until it reached about six meters, no matter how hard Ji Li tried, the water in the well did not move at all.

This is Ji Li’s current limit.

“Not bad, not bad.” Ping Shanhai and Qian Zhengyi praised in unison.

You should know, Ji Li’s current cultivation realm is only the Great Perfection of the First Realm. Having such a comprehension of the Sword Dao is rare.

Up to now, the best score for this level has only been two point two meters, held by Ye Sui’an.

And at the time of challenging this level, his cultivation base was close to the Great Perfection of the Second Realm. Translated into levels, he was at level 29 just like Lu Xun.

The suitable level for the Moon in the Well instance is 20-30. Any Sword Cultivator below the Third Realm who can attract the moonlight within three meters is considered a prodigy!

For those at level 20, being able to advance 8 meters is considered good, 7 meters is considered a genius.

Who would have thought that the Demon Sect has such a large number of disciples with talent in swordsmanship…

Ping Shanhai and Qian Zhengyi could not help but feel envious in their hearts.

Are you guys even the Demon Sect? Are you sure you’re not the Sword Sect?

If Ji Li were a disciple in their Sword Sects, they would also cultivate her vigorously.

After hearing the two men’s praise, Ji Li immediately bowed and said, “Thank you for your praise, both of you.”

She then looked at Lu Xun, her gaze locked on him.

Her meaning was very clear I want you to praise me too!

Lu Xun was amused by her, finding her na?ve expression somewhat endearing. He chuckled and said, “Very good, it’s much better than I expected. I really underestimated you!”

“It’s nothing much.” Ji Li said, placing her hands on her hips and secretly standing on her tiptoes.

Now it was Lu Xun’s turn.

He walked to the spot where Ji Li just stood and took a good look into the well.

All the people around him turned their eyes to him. The players mixed in with the disciples guarding here already started recording videos and taking screenshots.

Unfortunately, from their angle, they couldn’t record the moonlight in the well. They could only know the specific distance from the words of Ping Shanhai and the others.

But what the players recording videos didn’t expect was that something magical would happen next!

Lu Xun stood by the well and closed his eyes.

A breeze blew by, lifting his bangs. From afar, it looked quite poetic.

After closing his eyes, he slightly activated the Sword Heart, and he could clearly sense the moonlight in the well formed by the Sword Mark.

Very clear, even clearer than using his eyes.

Since the aim was to test his limit, Lu Xun had no intention of holding back.

After all, he still had lots of trump cards that others didn’t know about, which were basically king bomb level.

Revealing a little bit of his trump cards was not a big deal for him.

Therefore, Lu Xun directly activated his Sword Heart to full power.

The little sword in his Sword Heart was not a peacekeeping character at all. It loved causing trouble. At this moment, it naturally began to vibrate violently.

A fully-realized Sword Heart, accompanied by the Heart Sword that others lacked, what would that result in?

The next moment, the well water didn’t rise at all.

However, the moonlight in the well leaped out!

A blue-green phantom jumped out of the well, landing on Lu Xun’s palm.

Catching the Moon Barehanded.
