Chapter 61: Chapter 61: The Nameless Sword Stele

As for those who were eliminated, they all left.

Thirty-five people began comprehending in front of the stone stele.

On the stone stele, there are some drawings and texts, seemingly describing a nameless sword technique.

Looking at the stone stele, Lu Xuanji felt it was very mystical, as if it contained great mysteries, great secrets.

But upon closer inspection, he found it incomprehensible.

After watching for a stick of incense, he felt nothing, comprehended nothing.

Looking at the other cultivators, they too were confused.

As if expected, Long Xuan spoke: “Dear fellow Daoists, do you feel like you don’t understand, haven’t comprehended anything? If so, then that’s correct. This Sword Stele was found by my lady in a secret realm, containing supreme sword techniques, but they are very difficult to comprehend.”

“It took my lady sixty years to gain some insight.”

“If any cultivator gains some comprehension before the age of a hundred, they can come here to receive some rewards from my lady.”

Many cultivators were unconvinced and continued to comprehend.

Lu Xuanji was also unconvinced and continued to comprehend.

Time passed slowly, and three days went by without any effect.

“Fellow Daoists, it’s normal if you can’t comprehend anything, proceed to the third stage,” Long Xuan said, feeling this was to be expected.

At the early stages of cultivation, resources are the key; with enough resources, even a pig can become Pigsy. But in later stages, it tests comprehension and understanding of cultivation techniques, and innovative ability.

Unfortunately, these cultivators’ comprehension is not that great.

But this is a normal occurrence, just as geniuses are few in the world, those with extraordinary comprehension are also few.

What a pity.

Lu Xuanji was slightly disappointed as well.

But this was also within reason, and reflecting on this event also showed that he was just an ordinary person.

Indeed, he was not a genius, with average aptitude, having only Three Spirit Roots; and his comprehension was also average, with nothing special.

“Record with the phone.”

Lu Xuanji activated the phone to record the information on the stone stele.

He activated the [Destiny Calculation] to start calculating the cultivation technique.

Lacking in comprehension, the phone compensates.

The phone has massive computing power and can somewhat replace human comprehension.

[Destiny Calculation in progress…]

[The data is quite immense, calculation has hit a bottleneck]

[The data involves higher-dimensional knowledge, difficult to calculate]

[The data involves information beyond the phone’s understanding, difficult to calculate]

[The data involves information possibly exceeding the Nascent Soul level, calculation failed]

[The database’s stored information is limited, unable to conduct deeper analysis of the stone stele information]

[Data calculation is stuck at a bottleneck]

At this moment, the phone transmitted a series of messages indicating that the calculation was in trouble and unable to proceed with deeper calculations.

Somewhat surprising, but also within reason.

The phone is not omnipotent; it is just a Second Grade spiritual artifact.

The calculation capability is limited, and when faced with some advanced information, it still cannot calculate.

If the phone were omnipotent and everything could be calculated, Lu Xuanji would instead feel uneasy.

“Proceed with branch analysis?”

Lu Xuanji input the command.

The calculation process no longer pursues the grand and comprehensive, but only a superficial understanding.

[Determining calculation direction, Life Sword Technique, Death Sword Technique, Fast Sword Technique, Slow Sword Technique, Sharp Sword Technique, Space Swordsmanship, Time Swordsmanship,]

“Calculation direction is Life Sword Technique.”

Lu Xuanji said casually

[Calculation continues, a hint of mystery might be calculated after ten years]

Ten years.

This calculation seemed particularly long, and Lu Xuanji frowned but could only accept it.

The cultivation technique comprehension is challenging, and without the phone, it might take a lifetime to comprehend.

Long Xuan led everyone to a water tank, which had a layer of black restriction covering it, and it seemed to contain some items inside.

“On the path of cultivation, your spirit root can be poor, and your comprehension lacking, but your luck cannot be too bad. This stage is mainly to test luck.”

Long Xuan said, “Randomly take something out of the water tank to see how good or bad the luck of fellow Daoists is.”

Everyone listened, speechless.

“Daoist, is this reliable?”

A Purple Mansion cultivator spoke up.

“Not reliable,” Long Xuan said, “but my lady thinks it’s a good idea.”

“Then I’ll go first.”

The Purple Mansion cultivator said, reaching into the water tank and getting hold of an item instantly.

It was a Spirit Stone.

Then another cultivator stepped forward, grabbed something from the water tank,

It was a brocade bag containing three White Sun Pills.

One by one, cultivators stepped up to grab items, and their luck varied.

Those with bad luck got a Spirit Stone, while those with good luck got a Foundation Establishment Pill.

This method was used to test one’s luck like an Emperor or an unlucky person.

It’s somewhat similar to rolling dice.

But also quite different.

While dice seem to rely on luck, some rely on acute hearing, skills, or mathematical probabilities, allowing the outcome to be changed.

It’s like Schrodinger’s cat, entirely dependent on luck, with no probability calculations or techniques to predict the outcome.

Lu Xuanji casually reached in.

Very casually.

But at the moment of grasping, it was a pill bottle.

“Oh, good luck, it might be three White Sun Pills or a Foundation Establishment Pill.” Lu Xuanji casually opened it and poured it into his palm.

Instantly, a purple elixir appeared.

It had six elixir patterns locking in the medicinal power, preventing it from leaking.

“This is a Purple Sun Pill.” Long Xuan said with mild surprise, “Friend, your luck is really good, this is a Purple Sun Pill.”

“Is this the Purple Sun Pill?”

Lu Xuanji looked at the purple elixir, feeling his arm slightly tremble, struggling to bear it.

This was indeed a Purple Sun Pill.

Taken at the peak of Foundation Establishment, a Purple Sun Pill has a third-layer chance of achieving Purple Mansion cultivator status,

In the Dan Yang Sect, a Purple Sun Pill costs 150,000 Spirit Stones internally, but outside, the price ranges from 170,000 to 200,000.

A Foundation Establishment cultivator, not eating or drinking, would need 200 to 500 years to save enough money to buy a Foundation Establishment Pill.

Without relying on clan strength or a master’s wealth, many Foundation Establishment cultivators cannot afford a Foundation Establishment Pill.

Holding this Purple Sun Pill, Lu Xuanji carefully smelled it and then put it back into the bottle, handing it to Long Xuan.

Long Xuan took it and said, “Congratulations, your luck is excellent. My lady wishes to see you.”

“Thank you, senior.”

Lu Xuanji said respectfully.

Other cultivators looked at Lu Xuanji with envy in their eyes.

This cultivator was average in aptitude, average in comprehension, but had undeniable luck, with the Golden Core Ancestor wanting to meet him.

This is the creation of the Heavenly Dao.

Not to mention anything else, just speaking a few words with the Golden Core Ancestor is something to boast about for a long time.
