Obtaining a Vast Amount of Demon Points

"As expected, the golden light represents the inheritance of swordsmanship!"

Lu Feng did not rush to examine the Cloud-Piercing Sword Art, but continued to observe the nearby Sword Spirit.

Unfortunately, after observing for a long time, no second Sword Spirit with golden light hidden within its body was found.

"Never mind, let's collect enough Demon Points first."

He refocused his attention and began to concentrate on absorbing the Sword Soul and Sword Shadow around him.

[Successfully slayed a Tier 1 Sword Soul, gaining 100,000 Demon Points;]

[Successfully slayed a Tier 1 Sword Soul, gaining 100,000 Demon Points;]

A day later, Lu Feng finally collected one billion Demon Points.

"System, comprehend the Clear and Pure Spirit Eyes!"

[Complete Talent: Clear and Pure Spirit Eyes, requires 1 billion Demon Points; Complete now?]

"Understood!"

The ten billion Demon Points were instantly cleared. Lu Feng felt a chill in his eyes, and his previously clear black and white vision quickly faded, with the mountains, broken sword, and mist returning to their original colors.

He focused his gaze and saw different colored streams of light appearing within the wandering soul's body; as soon as he relaxed, those streams of light disappeared, and what he saw before him was no different from what he usually saw.

Lu Feng then summoned the control panel.

[Main character: Lu Feng;]

[Cultivation Level: Great Early Grandmaster]

[Cultivation Techniques: Nine Extremes Essence Condensation Art (Level 5), Progress: 100%; Six-Zhang Golden Body (Level 3); Spirit Condensation Art (Not Yet Entered); Nine Extremes Heaven-Breaking Slash (Level 9); Cloud-Piercing Sword Art (Not Yet Entered);]

[Perfect Martial Arts: Phantom Sword Formation; Phantom Sword Art; Startling Thunder Flash; Hundred Beasts Body-Tempering Art; Walking on Air;...;]

[Formation: Four Symbols Formation;]

[Talent: Clear and Pure Spirit Eyes;]

[Demon Points: 0;]

The Supreme Purity Spirit-Observing Eye has disappeared from the cultivation method section, while the Clear and Pure Spirit Eyes has been officially listed as an innate talent.

Lu Feng opened the introduction to the Cloud-Piercing Sword Art again, but lost interest after only glancing at it twice.

Even if this sword technique is mastered to perfection, it can only help the cultivator comprehend Sword Intent, and it is far inferior to the Phantom Sword Art.

He closed the description and continued absorbing the Sword Soul and Sword Shadow.

With the Clear and Pure Spirit Eyes no longer consuming True Essence, Lu Feng no longer needed to frequently stop to adjust his breathing, and his speed of absorbing wandering souls was much faster than before.

Seven days later.

Lu Feng looked at the control panel.

[Demon Points: 2.03 billion]

In just seven days, more than two billion Demon Points were earned.

More importantly, a large number of wandering souls still remain in the outer area. Lu Feng roughly estimated that if he absorbed all the Sword Soul and Sword Shadow here, he could gain at least tens of billions of Demon Points.

Lu Shuang, who was not far away, also reaped considerable rewards. In seven days, she absorbed over a hundred Sword Spirit and had already broken through to the Great Early Grandmaster a day ago.

As Lu Feng was secretly making plans, Lu Shuang suddenly walked towards him.

"Lu Feng, after breaking through to Great Grandmaster, the Sword Spirit on the outer perimeter seem to be useless against me."

Upon hearing this, Lu Feng was not disappointed; instead, he showed delight.

So, the reason why the outer Sword Spirit is ineffective against him might not be entirely due to a lack of swordsmanship talent, but perhaps because he already possesses the cultivation of Great Grandmaster?

"It has absolutely no effect? After the Sword Spirit enters your mind, does it only flash briefly and then disappear?"

Lu Shuang shook her head.

"It still has some effect, but it's minimal. I've absorbed more than ten Sword Spirit in a row, and my understanding of the sword path has barely increased."

She looked up towards the inner perimeter.

"We've been in the secret realm for ten days now, it's time to take a look at the inner perimeter. What do you think?"

"Okay, let's go to the inner perimeter then."

Although Lu Feng still wanted to accumulate more Demon Points, he didn't forget that Lu Shuang's most important goal for this trip was to find the Sword Heart Grass. If they lingered too long on the outskirts and someone else got there first, it would truly be a loss.

Once we've entered the core area and obtained the Sword Heart Grass, we can come back and slowly absorb these wandering souls. Anyway, the secret realm will be open for three months, so there's plenty of time.

The two immediately set off towards the inner perimeter of the Tomb of Ten Thousand Swords Tomb.

Along the way, if Lu Feng discovers Sword Spirit with a sword-path inheritance, he will guide Lu Shuang to absorb it.

"By the way, the wandering spirits in the inner perimeter are different from those in the outer perimeter," Lu Shuang reminded her as they walked.

"The wandering spirits on the outer perimeter won't attack people unless provoked, but the Sword Spirit, Sword Soul, and Sword Shadow on the inner perimeter are all aggressive. However, compared to the Sword Spirit, Sword Shadow deal less damage."

Lu Feng nodded, a sense of anticipation rising within him.

If the outer perimeter consists of Tier 1 wandering spirits, the inner perimeter is likely to contain Tier 2 wandering spirits. How many Demon Points could a Tier 2 Sword Soul be worth?

Seeing his expression, Lu Shuang couldn't help but ask, "Why do I feel like you're actually quite excited about this news?"

"Really?" Lu Feng asked without changing his expression. "I just feel that the inner-circle wandering souls are of a higher level, and the sword dao inheritance they contain should also be stronger."

Lu Shuang thought about it and felt that there was some truth to it.

The two walked a distance further and finally entered the inner perimeter of the Ten Thousand Swords Tomb.

The fog here was much thicker than the surrounding area, and the wandering spirits were also a full size larger. Lu Feng focused his gaze, and under the illumination of his Clear and Pure Spirit Eyes, the Sword Spirit, Sword Soul, and Sword Shadow were immediately clearly distinguishable.

"I'll try it first."

Lu Feng selected the Sword Soul closest to him and stepped closer.

The moment he stepped within three feet, the Sword Soul pounced and burrowed directly into his mind.

"Boom!"

A deafening roar erupted in Lu Feng's mind, as if his sea of consciousness was being torn apart. The pain caused him to sway and nearly lose his balance.

[Successfully slayed a second-tier Sword Soul, gaining 1 million Demon Points;]

"Lu Feng, are you alright?" Lu Shuang quickly helped him up.

"It's nothing." Lu Feng pressed his forehead, catching his breath before saying, "One second-tier Sword Soul rewards one million Demon Points. However, the damage is far stronger than in the outer areas. With my current strength, I can only withstand attacks from three Sword Soul at the same time."

After figuring out the details of the Sword Soul, he found another Sword Spirit.

The Sword Spirit entered his mind, but only flashed by like a shooting star, leaving no lasting impression.

Lu Shuang was able to comprehend the Dao of the sword through the Sword Spirit, but he had made no progress in several attempts. It seemed that he truly lacked talent in the Dao of the sword.

Fortunately, the damage caused by the Sword Spirit is far weaker than that of the Sword Soul. With his physical strength, he can absorb at least a hundred of them in succession.

Finally, Lu Feng tried out one more Sword Shadow.

[Successfully slayed a second-tier Sword Shadow, gaining 100,000 Demon Points;]

The damage from Sword Shadow is similar to that of Sword Spirit, and it doesn't pose much of a threat to him now.

After figuring out the attack range of the wandering spirits, as well as the damage and benefits of the three types of wandering spirits, Lu Feng explained it to Lu Shuang in detail, and then pointed out Sword Spirit with golden light hidden inside its body.

"These wandering spirits may be constantly moving, but you can focus on your comprehension. I will stay here and ensure they do not disturb you."

Lu Shuang nodded and walked straight towards the Sword Spirit.

The moment she stepped within three feet, the Sword Spirit pounced and pierced her brow.

The number of wandering spirits in the inner perimeter is less than in the outer perimeter, but it is not scarce either; one can be seen almost every few feet.

Lu Feng first absorbed all the Sword Shadow within ten feet of Lu Shuang, and then focused on the few Sword Soul closest to her.

Meanwhile, several miles ahead of them was the Sword Tomb.
