Top-Class Comprehension: Start with Basic Fist Techniques-Chapter 1112 - 338: Swordsman of the Kunwu Realm! Lu Changsheng Breaks Sword Qi Barehanded! Shocking! (Part 3)
Of course, it might be because the eight carriages all bore the insignia of the Holy Zhou City authorities, so the mountain bandits were deterred.
But more likely, it's because the Wenhua Divine Dynasty is relatively peaceful.
Without much chaos, naturally, there aren't many mountain bandits.
However, on the road, Gao Shan found Lu Changsheng.
They exchanged a few words.
Mere nonsense about being united and the like.
Lu Changsheng paid no attention.
With his current strength, why would he care about someone like Gao Shan?
Interestingly, the other six were indeed intimidated by Gao Shan.
Anyway, they basically followed Gao Shan's orders.
This Gao Shan clearly has some abilities and methods. To be able to subdue these six so quickly is indeed something.
But no matter how impressive, it's ineffective on Lu Changsheng.
It's merely that Lu Changsheng is traveling with Gao Shan and the others.
Once they reach the State Government, they will part ways, each going about their business.
The carriages traveled for about ten days before they finally reached the State City.
They headed straight for the State Government.
The State Government was bustling.
Many people came and went.
All were Spiritual or even Divine Body strong people.
The experts of Holy Zhou City arrived at the State Government and also met the State Governor.
But the State Governor was evidently very busy and didn't pay much attention to Lu Changsheng and the others.
He just said to stay in the State Government and wait for the State Governor's orders.
The State Government was quite large.
And it housed many people, experts from some subordinate provinces and counties.
Most were Divine Body strong people.
Lu Changsheng roughly calculated and found there were dozens of them.
"In a single state, the State Governor's command gathers dozens of Divine Body strong people."
"It seems the foundation of the Wenhua Divine Dynasty is much deeper than that of the Great Qian Divine Dynasty, and this strength is significantly greater too."
Lu Changsheng compared the two Divine Dynasties.
He found that the Great Qian Divine Dynasty indeed wasn't as good as the Wenhua Divine Dynasty.
No wonder even at its most prosperous, the Great Qian Divine Dynasty dared not expand towards the Wenhua Divine Dynasty.
Lu Changsheng parted ways with Gao Shan and the others.
Both sides probably understood they were not of the same league.
Gao Shan did not force Lu Changsheng either.
Next to Lu Changsheng's room seemed to be some other Divine Body strong people.
As soon as he moved in, he saw a swordsman.
Seated cross-legged on the ground.
His expression was cold, but emanating from his body was a terrifying sword intent.
This sword intent was incredibly sharp.
Even coming slightly closer, one could feel its cutting edge.
"A swordsman?"
Lu Changsheng was somewhat surprised.
This person was clearly a Divine Body strong person who refined some divine object.
Unexpectedly, among the divine objects, there can also be a strong swordsman related to the Sword Dao.
However, the other's Sword Dao aura gave Lu Changsheng a faint sense of familiarity.
Especially the other's sword.
"His sword…"
Lu Changsheng faintly felt the other's sword was somewhat familiar.
It seemed like he had seen it somewhere before, but he couldn't recall it for a long time.
Lu Changsheng had long since developed an eidetic memory.
If he had seen it before, he wouldn't be able to forget it.
After careful recollection, a light flashed in Lu Changsheng's mind.
Finally, he remembered.
"The sword's hilt bears patterns that resemble those on the Red Dust Immortal Tombstone fragments?"
"Though not identical, they are certainly very similar."
"The treasure sword must have something to do with the Red Dust Immortal Tombstone fragments..."
Lu Changsheng's mind shook.
Red Dust Immortal Tombstone!
Unexpectedly, just upon arriving at the State City, he encountered clues related to the Red Dust Immortal Tombstone.
Even the mysterious patterns on the tombstone fragments, Zhao Shuwen had always been studying.
But hadn't discovered anything substantial.
Since the patterns on the sword's hilt were very similar to those on the Red Dust Immortal Tombstone fragments, it most likely had some connection to them.
Lu Changsheng then walked towards the swordsman.
The origin of that sword could be known by directly asking the swordsman.
No need for Lu Changsheng to make random guesses here.
Lu Changsheng did not knock but directly pushed open the courtyard door and walked in.
"Entering without notice, isn't that impolite?"
Though the white-clothed swordsman had his eyes closed, he apparently sensed Lu Changsheng and spoke, his tone somewhat indifferent.
Lu Changsheng smiled and said, "Indeed impolite, but does Fellow Daoist care about such formalities? Moreover, Fellow Daoist has been focusing on Brother Lu, wouldn't that also be considered impolite?"
In fact, the white-clothed swordsman didn't care whether Lu Changsheng knocked or not.
Both understood.
From the moment they saw each other, they were already sensing each other's every move.
"What business do you have with me?"
The white-clothed swordsman asked coldly.
"How should I address you?"
"Wang Jiuzhen!"
"So it's Fellow Daoist Wang. Brother Lu came to merely inquire about the origin of the sword in your hand?"
Wang Jiuzhen was slightly taken aback.
He opened his eyes.
His gaze was sharp and showed no restraint.
"My sword…"
Wang Jiuzhen held the treasure sword.
His sword was indeed a treasure sword, indestructible, following him for many years.
However, even if it was a treasure sword, he was a swordsman; everyone knew his sword was like a second life.
"You want my sword?"
Wang Jiuzhen asked in return.
"No, Brother Lu has no designs on Fellow Daoist Wang's sword. I merely wish to know the sword's origin."
"Its origin... there's no harm in telling you. This treasure sword was gifted by an old acquaintance, said to be an ancestral treasure."
Lu Changsheng was contemplative.
He didn't know if he should trust Wang Jiuzhen's words.
If true, then this clue was evidently broken.
An ancestral treasure implies it has been passed down for many generations.
It's likely even the original acquisition is unknown.
"Would Fellow Daoist Wang permit Brother Lu to make a rubbing of the sword's decorative patterns?"
Lu Changsheng made another request.
