There’s Something Wrong With This Account

Chapter 307: 307,Three Girls and One Boy (Thanks to the alliance hierarch “Lemon” for the reward!)

Even though I came to watch the painting for free, there’s no denying – it’s hideous.

However, Lu Xun chastised himself immediately for having such thoughts.

“Complaining about free stuff? How is that any different from those readers who watch pirated versions first and then bash the official versions?!”

Lu Xun shook his head, lifting his gaze again to study the painting.

The painted ink bamboo could just about pass for bamboo, I suppose.

However, the bamboo painted by a master would even evoke the rhythms of the bamboo, creating an artistic conception, but the conception of the painting in front of him is sword intent!

Lu Xun stared at the painting for a while, trying to reveal its basic information.

Suddenly, a prompt popped up before him:

“[A painting bought by the Sword Mountain Elder for 2 Wen on the side of the road, into which he casually infused his Sword Intent.]”

Lu Xun:

Didn’t Ping Shanhai say that this was drawn by the Sword Mountain Elder to commemorate his four greatest rivals in his later years?

Turns out, legends can’t always be trusted.

But to think about it, it’s quite bizarre that these four great rivals coincidentally represent the four noble plants plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum.

On the contrary, it would’ve been easier to find such a theme in a brothel…

This secret hadn’t been seen on the forum before, probably because the players didn’t have a high enough level of access, and couldn’t extract as much basic information with their detection abilities as Lu Xun.

But Lu Xun wasn’t clear about what determined these levels of access.

More precisely, no one had ever figured out this during gaming.

Anyway, when there’s something to look at, just look at it. If there isn’t, then forget about it.

Just consider it as pixelation.

In conclusion, the Sword Mountain Elder had just casually purchased these four paintings and simulated four different Sword Intents.

“His taste is really not that great. Why did he only pick ugly ones?” Lu Xun wasn’t being sarcastic, just simply wondering.

After all, if he had painted it himself, it would’ve been just a matter of ability.

But this kind of painting that’s specifically bought to show to successors represents a problem of aesthetic judgment.

As Lu Xun mused, he waited for the judgment from the gaming system.

Just like how he had, under Shen Yan’s guidance, glanced at the Sword Qi hidden in the Demon Sect Receiving Peak and gained 1 point of Swordsmanship Aptitude.

At this moment, what he could gain relied on the system’s judgment.

This felt a bit like taking a lucky draw.

After all, the final rewards different players received from their “enlightenment” here varied.

As everybody knows, the thrill of a lucky draw is the most intoxicating part of gaming.

Players both love and hate this setting.

At the moment, Lu Xun was in good spirits.

He knew his Swordsmanship Aptitude, which was as high as 6 points, already exceeded the maximum limit that he could obtain from observing this painting.

Anyway, taking whatever comes, not being picky and having a good appetite was the way!

The next moment, a basic info prompt appeared in front of him.

“Ding! You’ve obtained a special item: Sword Intent booster effect.”

“Use times: 1/1.”

Looking at the prompt, Lu Xun thought: “Huh, it turns out they gave a one-time special item.”

However, upon closer thought, it made sense. Given my current level in swordsmanship, how could the system let me improve so easily?

This one-time special item, on the other hand, is the most suitable reward.

Lu Xun clicked on claim, and then checked it out.

“Sword Intent Booster effect: Bamboo.”

“Level: 30.”

“Grade: Minor Completion of Sword Intent.”

“When used, it can be attached to the Sword Qi.”

“It can be used in combination with one’s own Sword Intent.”

After reading the description, Lu Xun felt that this was a pretty decent reward, definitely something he could use as a trump card!

The point that it could be used in conjunction with his own Sword Intent was certainly great.

The combined power of two Sword Intents would most assuredly be terrifying.

It’s equivalent to having an item that could save your life.

Its effect was similar to the Sword Qi that his second senior sister had given him, though not as terrifying in terms of power.

After getting the reward, Lu Xun left the secret room.

To his surprise, Ping Shanhai was still waiting outside.
