Chapter 1038: The Chen Family's Crisis

Lu Xuan looked down at the crowd of True Sword Peak cultivators sitting upright and expectantly gazing at him.

"Thank you, Senior Uncle and fellow disciples, for your kindness. Today, I would like to share and discuss my insights on talisman crafting with everyone."

"I've studied the Sword Dao for many years and have meticulously cultivated a large number of Sword Grass Spirit Plants. As a result, I've gained some understanding of sword qi control and have become proficient in several sword talismans."

"Among them, there are two Fifth Rank talismans: the Dark Yin Sword Talisman and the True Demon Sword Talisman. And two Fourth Rank talismans: the Great Sun Sword Talisman and the Sea Cry Sword Talisman."

Lu Xuan spoke calmly and eloquently.

"Sword talismans are the most powerful among all talismans, but they are also the most difficult to draw.

To draw sword talismans, one must not only possess the most basic talisman crafting skills but also have meticulous control."

"..."

Half a day later, the sword talisman exchange finally concluded, leaving the audience wanting more.

"Junior Master Lu, you are indeed worthy of being the Superior Grade scorer who surpasses countless talisman masters from the nine sword peaks. Your explanations about sword talismans were insightful and enlightening. I've learned a lot."

Ye Lingkong stood up and spoke with a bow.

"Senior Uncle is too kind. I'm only proficient in these few sword talismans. For other talismans, I still have much to learn from you."

Lu Xuan quickly replied.

"Junior Brother Lu, I am truly grateful for your willingness to impart the essence of talisman crafting. I am deeply indebted to you, Senior Brother."

An Inner Sect Disciple who had reached the peak of the Core Formation stage approached and expressed his gratitude.

"Yes, thank you so much, Senior Brother!"

"I will never forget your kindness, Senior Brother!"

Many Sword Peak disciples came forward to express their gratitude.

The content Lu Xuan shared today would be considered closely guarded secrets by other talisman masters, and they would never casually spread it.

However, Lu Xuan didn't mind at all and generously shared his knowledge with everyone, making it even more valuable.

"Next time, I'll have the opportunity to have a good exchange with all of you."

Lu Xuan smiled and escorted the crowd to the outside of the cave mansion.

He wasn't worried that someone would learn the essence of sword talismans and threaten his position as a talisman master at True Sword Peak.

Even if someone had exceptional talent and could quickly grasp what he had taught, it would still be difficult for them to reach his level of talisman crafting in a short time, not to mention that he would continue to absorb the talisman crafting experience packages offered by the light group.

...

Outside the Sword Sect.

In a quiet courtyard.

"Junior Sister Qing Shuang, have your relatives come to visit?"

A clear female voice echoed outside the courtyard.

Soon, a beautiful and determined woman emerged from the courtyard.

This woman was Chen Qingshuang, a descendant of a Nascent Soul True Monarch from the Sword Sect many years ago. Lu Xuan had learned about the lingering sword soul of that Nascent Soul cultivator in Heart Sword Lake and had interacted with her before.

Chen Qingshuang stepped out of the courtyard and saw a middle-aged cultivator with slightly white temples and a refined aura.

"Uncle Grandfather, why are you here at the Sword Sect?"

She was surprised, as the man before her was Chen Yuqiu, the current head of the Chen family and the only Core Formation True Person in the family. He had been tirelessly maintaining the entire Chen family.

"I happened to be passing by the Sword Sect, and it's been over a hundred years since I last visited. I thought I'd come and take a look at my old cultivation grounds and also pay you a visit."

Chen Yuqiu smiled and followed Chen Qingshuang into the courtyard.

"Uncle Grandfather, has something happened in the clan?"

Chen Qingshuang opened the seal outside the courtyard and looked at the middle-aged cultivator with bright eyes.

In recent years, the Chen family had been in decline, and they needed a powerful cultivator to protect the clan. Unless something significant had happened, Chen Yuqiu would never leave the family lightly.

"Qing Shuang, you've always been sharp since you were young, and indeed, you've seen through it.

Chen Yuqiu heaved a soft sigh.

"What exactly happened? Can you tell me, Qingshuang?"

Chen Qingshuang asked softly.

"The mine in our clan is about to be lost. The Zhang family, located less than a thousand miles away, is trying to take over the new management rights of the mine."

Chen Yuqiu briefly explained.

"The Zhang family? Don't they already have two medicinal gardens? Why do they still want to take over our Chen family's mine?"

Chen Qingshuang couldn't help but ask.

The mine belonged to the Cave Profound Sword Sect, but it had been almost fully developed, leaving only a small number of ordinary spirit mines. It was then handed over to the nearby Chen family for management.

After the Chen family collected the spirit mines, they submitted a certain amount to the Sword Sect and kept the rest for themselves.

Every hundred years, the ownership of the mine was reallocated. However, due to an ancestor of the Chen family who was a Primordial Spirit True Monarch, and their family's advantageous location, they had always firmly held onto the mine.

Unexpectedly, as the new round of allocation was about to begin, the Zhang family suddenly intervened.

"There's no other way. The Chen family is declining, while the Zhang family is thriving. The gap in strength between the two families is growing, and it's natural for the Zhang family to have new ambitions."

"Now, there's only one Core Formation Cultivator in our clan with a nearly exhausted lifespan holding things together. On the other hand, the Zhang family has been strong and wealthy for years, and their cultivation is no weaker than mine. Additionally, they have a Core Formation Elder."

"More importantly, there's a Zhang family member cultivating in the Sword Sect who broke through to the Core Formation stage a few years ago. He became an Inner Sect Disciple at a young age, and his cultivation path is smooth, with the potential to reach the Primordial Spirit stage."

"In this situation, the Chen family has very little competitiveness."

Chen Yuqiu said helplessly.

Upon hearing this, Chen Qingshuang fell silent, her fists clenched tightly, and her fair skin showed protruding veins.

She only regretted that she hadn't broken through to the Core Formation stage yet, otherwise, she would have had the confidence to help her family overcome their difficulties.

"Uncle, did you come up with a solution?"

She asked in a hoarse voice after a moment of silence.

"There is a way, but the hope is extremely slim."

"When Chen Xiaobai, the old ancestor, was in the Sword Sect, he had two or three close friends. But after more than two thousand years, the friendship between the descendants has become increasingly thin, and there has been no contact since the Chen family's decline."

"As far as I know, one of the old ancestor's friends has deep roots in the Sword Sect, and their descendants have produced a Primordial Spirit True Monarch."

"This time, I came to see if I could find an opportunity to meet them and offer them some treasures, hoping they might help us out."

Chen Yuqiu slowly explained, his thin figure appearing frail in the wind.

"So many years have passed, has the friendship from that generation been exhausted?"

Chen Qingshuang frowned slightly and asked softly.

"We have to give it a try. At worst, I'll just lose some more blood."

Chen Yuqiu chuckled.

Chen Qingshuang bit her lip, but a figure suddenly appeared in her mind.

That Inner Sect Disciple who had found her claimed to have obtained a treasure left behind by the old ancestor in the outer realm, which was of great use to him. When they met, he gave Chen Qingshuang several treasures and repeatedly told her to feel free to seek his help if she ever needed it.

Due to the vast difference in their cultivation and status, Chen Qingshuang didn't have such thoughts. After learning that Lu Xuan had performed exceptionally in the Sword Peak Grand Competition, she buried what he had said deep in her heart.

A thought flashed through her mind, and a communication talisman she had never used before appeared in her hand.

"Uncle, I might have a way."

She said firmly.
