Chapter 3170: The Seventy-two Swords Also Have Strong and Weak Ones
Seeing the Fox Tail Sword, Lin Moyu instinctively thought of the jade sword qi in his body.
Back then, the Jade Dao Sword had planted sword qi in his body. Whenever the Sun Origin appeared, the Jade Dao Sword would emit sword qi to temper his dao heart.
Without realizing it, Lin Moyu could feel his dao heart becoming more steadfast.
The dao heart was intangible, invisible and untouchable, yet it truly existed.
Every cultivator needed to temper their dao heart, but very few could truly achieve it.
The Jade Dao Sword’s tempering of the dao heart was subtle and imperceptible, extrely slow in effect, but constant.
When he first gained the Jade Dao Sword’s recognition, he had been elated for a while.
Later, without realizing it, he had forgotten about this matter. It could only be said that too many things happened afterwards, one after another, rarely having a chance to properly sort out himself.
Seeing the Fox Tail Sword, Lin Moyu had the idea of going over to take a look.
The Seventy-two Swords were connected. Having gained the Jade Dao Sword’s recognition was equivalent to gaining recognition from the other seventy-one swords.
Going over to take a look probably wouldn’t cause anything to happen. He had nothing else to do anyway.
"Mr. Lin!"
A voice ca from outside the palace.
Lin Moyu saw Su Fengze standing outside the palace, greeting him.
He had said before that without his instructions, no one should enter the palace.
So Su Fengze was stopped outside the palace, unable to enter.
Lin Moyu slowly rose, floating down from the air to appear before Su Fengze. "What brings Brother Su here?"
Now Su Fengze had changed his na. The Beast Emperor had designated him as part of the main branch. Su Fengze should now be called Su Ze.
Su Ze said, "I left the Ancient Battle Secret Realm early before, then thanks to Mr. Lin’s blessing, beca a main branch disciple."
"The clan leader had return first to handle the identity matters, and also move into the inner city."
"I just heard that Mr. Lin had arrived, so I rushed over imdiately."
He called Lin Moyu "Mr. Lin" very smoothly.
Even the clan leader called Lin Moyu "sir". How could he dare to call him "friend" anymore? That would be asking for trouble.
Lin Moyu smiled, "What instructions do you have for ?"
Su Ze’s mouth twitched, his whole face twisting. "Mr. Lin, please don’t say that. How could Su Ze dare give you instructions? I just ca to say hello and express my thanks."
Lin Moyu asked curiously, "Thanks for what? If it’s about becoming part of the main branch, you should thank the Beast Emperor, not ."
Su Ze shook his head, giving Lin Moyu a aningful look.
Lin Moyu understood. He smiled, "Do you have ti? I want to go see the Fox Tail Sword. Could you show the way?"
Su Ze nodded like a chicken pecking rice, "I have ti, I have ti. Shall we go now?"
"Now!"
Lin Moyu told the people guarding outside the palace not to follow, then let Su Ze lead the way towards the Fox Tail Sword.
The two flew through the air. Nine Tails City also had its own rules. One couldn’t fly around randomly everywhere. There were designated routes.
Many Celestial Fox clan guards constantly patrolled in the air, maintaining order.
Lin Moyu followed beside Su Ze and asked, "Friend, you seed to have more to say just now."
Su Ze said softly, "Actually, when the clan leader asked how I was saved before, I didn’t tell the truth then."
"At the mont of life and death, a senior suddenly appeared and saved ."
"That senior said he acted to save out of consideration for you."
"But that senior told not to tell others about his existence."
Lin Moyu already knew that the person who saved Su Ze should be Lord Wentian.
He smiled and said, "Why are you telling then?"
Su Ze said, "This matter originated with Mr. Lin. Mr. Lin naturally doesn’t count as an outsider."
Lin Moyu said, "He probably saw that you had potential, so he didn’t want you to die. I was just his excuse. You don’t need to think too much about it."
Su Ze shook his head, "Even an excuse needs to be found. It’s precisely because..."
He said halfway when Lin Moyu had already interrupted him, "Let’s just let this matter pass. You and I are both friends and comrades-in-arms. Such small matters don’t need to be said much."
Su Ze thought for a mont and said softly, "Being able to beco friends with Mr. Lin is Su Ze’s honor."
Lin Moyu indeed accepted Su Ze as a friend, but only limited to being a friend.
Instead, it was people like Lei Hao that made him feel more comfortable when interacting.
Compared to Lei Hao, Su Ze lacked a kind of true nature.
This was also a common problem with smart people. Being too smart made them overthink things.
Instead, straightforward people like Lei Hao who said whatever they thought were easier to get along with once you got used to them.
Lei Hao wouldn’t change his attitude because of Lin Moyu’s status. He still enthusiastically called him "Brother Lin".
As for how others behaved, that wasn’t his concern.
Along the way, Su Ze told Lin Moyu about the Celestial Fox clan’s affairs. Lin Moyu sotis had questions, and Su Ze answered every question.
This also gave Lin Moyu a deeper understanding of the Celestial Fox clan.
Gradually, the two approached the Fox Tail Sword.
Over ten thousand li away, they could already feel the powerful pressure brought by the Fox Tail Sword.
Su Ze introduced, "The Fox Tail Sword is located between the fifth tail and fourth tail of Nine Tails City."
"About a quarter of what we consider the fifth tail branch was cut off by the sword."
"That’s why our clan nad it the Fox Tail Sword."
Lin Moyu nodded slightly, "That’s quite vivid."
The Seventy-two Swords didn’t have nas. The nas were all given by later generations.
As for what they were called before, only the swords’ owners would know. Even asking the sword spirits might not work.
In Jade Sword City, Lin Moyu had already discovered that everyone’s way of addressing the swords would form a strange power, slightly changing the sword spirits’ cognition.
This power was sowhat similar to the power of belief.
The population of Nine Tails City far exceeded that of Jade Sword City many tis over. If it was truly the power of belief, then the sword spirit would also believe its na was Fox Tail Sword.
The two gradually approached the Fox Tail Sword. When they were still a thousand li away, a sword qi shot towards Su Ze from afar.
Su Ze’s face changed. He took out a shield which instantly enlarged. He and Lin Moyu both hid behind it.
Bang!
The shield shook. Su Ze blocked the sword qi.
The sword qi wasn’t strong. Any Dao Venerable could block it.
But there was a strange power within the sword qi. A large patch of illusions imdiately appeared before Su Ze’s eyes. He let out a low shout, his soul power surging to sweep away all the illusions.
Su Ze exclaid in amazent, "How can this be?"
Lin Moyu chuckled lightly, "Your dao heart is still not steadfast enough."
Su Ze was sowhat confused. Why did Lin Moyu suddenly ntion the dao heart? What did it have to do with the dao heart?
Lin Moyu explained, "That sword qi just now would trigger illusions, able to temper the dao heart."
"As long as your dao heart is strong enough, you can treat it as nothing."
Su Ze was a bit dazed, "So that’s how it is?"
Lin Moyu sighed, "That senior back then was truly ingenious. Using seventy-two swords not only stabilized the Origin Continent’s earth veins, but also gave cultivators a chance to temper their dao hearts."
"If I’m not mistaken, this should be your first ti here?"
Su Ze nodded, "Indeed it’s the first ti. I’ve only heard about it before."
Lin Moyu said, "Co here more often in the future. As your cultivation rises, your dao heart must keep up. Otherwise, an unstable foundation isn’t good."
Su Ze’s face was solemn, "I understand."
"Let’s go, continue!" Lin Moyu continued flying towards the Fox Tail Sword.
He had already seen that the Fox Tail Sword was stronger than the Jade Dao Sword.
Even among the Seventy-two Swords, there were strong and weak ones.
