Being an otaku in the world of American comics

#948 - Haoran swordsmanship!

"Could it be that someone deliberately slipped this to me?"

He picked up the painting on the desk, depicting the Righteous Path of the Sword, imbued with the Righteous Sword Intent, and the jade scroll infused with the Confucian heritage.

In the end, Liang Yue decided to pass these things down.

Anyway, it's just a small matter, not much trouble.

However, before that, his own people could use it for reference.

Although Liang Yue didn't particularly need these things, his direct disciple, Bao Yun, was wholeheartedly pursuing the path of the sword.

However, over the years, he hadn't been able to obtain any high-quality sword-path inheritance, so Bao Yun's situation was similar to his own, mostly comprehending the Dao alone.

Moreover, unlike Liang Yue's indiscriminate approach to cultivation, Bao Yun, focusing solely on the sword path, truly needed proper guidance and systematic learning.

Now, with this scroll containing a complete sword-path inheritance, it conveniently solved his immediate need.

Previously, the "Seven Mysterious Sword Qi" he had drawn from the system was of too low a grade, capping out at the Golden Core stage.

In the mortal world, sword cultivators are actually quite unique; those below the Immortal realm generally don't involve themselves in the Dao of the Sword, Sword Intent, or even the cultivation of rule-based domains.

The so-called sword cultivators there actually focus more on methods, emphasizing techniques, power, self-protection, and defense, while also incorporating various formations and weapon refining, appearing complete and complex, but ultimately just methods.

Soon, after a meal, the women at the table dispersed, each going about their own business.

After all, the family business was now large, with the stronghold world connected to several different-level worlds, and in the slightly farther regions, there were cultivation civilizations with tens of millions of people.

However, before leaving, Alwyn didn't forget to take the hundred or so Star Spirit races from Liang Yue's treasure world; as a high elf, she seemed to value these related alien races greatly.

Liang Yue, after handing over the sword-path scroll to Bao Yun and uploading the Confucian heritage to the villagers' platform, took the little girl Yiliya for a stroll around the village.

He introduced her to the various functions and layouts of the small village while also considering how to settle the little girl.

Obviously, Yiliya, who already had a certain foundation in magic and magic-pattern cultivation, certainly wouldn't be content with idleness.

It might be okay for her to experience the life of ordinary people for a short time, but if she were to be placed among ordinary people permanently, it would probably be inappropriate.

Therefore, the local civilization of the stronghold world, the Xia Kingdom, could only be occasionally visited for training; the little girl's final destination would definitely be near his own village.

Well, it's called a village, but in reality, after so many years of development, the original village had long been unrecognizable by those around it.

Whether it was Teacher Shizuka, Saya Takagi, or Liang Yue's disciples, they had all carried out detailed renovations and large-scale expansions here several times.

Therefore, the current village is actually more appropriately called a town.

Most of the disciples from various worlds who had been granted places lived here, with a large number of houses built, mostly classical buildings with pavilions, terraces, and waterside gardens.

Yiliya, on the other hand, needed to find a separate place to take her castle out of the treasure world and settle it down...

"This is a smart light brain; each of you wears one on your wrist. It stores a lot of useful things, maps, resource points, including auxiliary functions like calling for technological tools."

"There's also a smart butler to help you better familiarize yourselves with this place."

"You've all noticed the stone tower that came down earlier, right? That's the Library Tower, and it mainly contains books and materials related to cultivation. The higher the floor, the higher the upper limit of the system involved."

"You can go in and read more when you have time while you're living here."

"That tower over there is the Plantation; you can find a lot of vegetables and fruits inside. Of course, if you need anything, you can also call for delivery through the smart light brain."

"See that cave over there? The first and second underground floors contain some special portals. The first floor is for instances, similar to those in games, where you can go in and grind for experience, equipment, and various materials."

"The second floor is the Public World Gate, connecting to several other different worlds, but I suggest you don't go in for now. Level up your strength in the instances first."

"There should be people looking for groups at the entrance of the instances. If you can't catch up, taking Dun Dun, Little Kong, and Jade Linglong with you is also fine, but before that,"

"You can first check the background information of these instances, the difficult points, and so on. You can find all of this on the smart light brain."

Soon, with Liang Yue's explanation, the group quickly arrived at the first underground floor of the village ~ the Instance Lobby.

"There should be a lot of healing potions stored in those boxes over there, which the disciples have saved after returning from the instances. You can take a few more with you, and you can use them if you get injured."

Soon, with this guy's summons, three sets of silver-gray smart armor were sent from his long spaceship from the lab to the Instance Lobby.

As a result, as soon as Liang Yue turned his head, he realized that Yiliya and the two maids beside her were all dizzy, seemingly unable to react.

Their eyes were wide, but the divine light inside was a bit scattered, probably shocked by someone's continuous stream of new things, temporarily unable to process it...

Seeing this, Liang Yue didn't say anything, then twitched his mouth, smiled, and led the three to the small bar across the hall, poured them a few glasses of wine, and took some heavier-flavored snacks and fruits to put in front of them.

His three pets were very conscious, and after coming to the tavern, they took out a lot of food from their storage space and chewed on it.

Among them, Little Kong and Dun Dun didn't know when they had learned to drink, while Jade Linglong preferred honeydew~

Speaking of small taverns...

In fact, as more and more disciples went down to the instances, the scale of the tavern was no longer what it used to be, just a bar, a wine cabinet, and a few sets of tables and chairs.

After all, after just returning from a large-scale monster-killing spree in the instance, everyone would want to find a place to relax.

Therefore, the tavern in front of them had been expanded several times by the disciples.

Next to the tavern, there were also a few other types of shops, dedicated to the disciples exchanging various materials with each other, or leaving commissions for collecting various materials because they didn't have time to go to the instances.

The public world hall on the second floor also had a similar layout and information bar.

Of course, they now mostly use the smart light brain of the Little Wu clone to exchange such resource information.

At this time, there were a few scattered disciples and a considerable number of natives drinking and chatting in the tavern, exchanging some cultivation insights, etc.

"When I find a place around here, I'll help you settle the castle from the treasure world, and you can live here for the time being."

Seeing that the three people opposite him were gradually regaining their senses, silently drinking wine and eating fruit, Liang Yue said.

"Then~ can we still enter the Tree of Life in the future?"

Yiliya asked after thinking for a while, looking at him with big eyes, slightly expectant and nervous.

"There is also a Tree of Life in this world, which you can find through the smart light brain. Alwyn is responsible for maintaining that tree, and you can go there to cultivate at any time."

Hearing the other party's words, Liang Yue smiled and replied.

"There's even one? Tree of Life, isn't that a very precious thing?"

One of the maids, the one named Lizeliette who liked to wear a hair-covered maid hat, asked with a surprised look.

The other maid was named Sera...

"It's okay. In a world I live in, an ancient Tree of Life has grown to maturity and completely dominates its planet."

"In order to spread its seeds to more places, it occasionally sends some carefully cultivated saplings to some auctions in that universe."

"The Tree of Life here was actually obtained from an auction in a relatively reputable country."

Liang Yue shrugged his hands upon hearing this.

"I see..."

"There are many magical things in this world. You are just starting your journey, just stepping out of your own world, take your time~"

Saying that, Liang Yue reached out and tapped twice in the air.

Two drops of water shining with colorful rays of light then fell into the hearts of the two maids opposite him one after another.

Speaking of which, Yiliya's two maids were actually alchemical life forms created by the Einzbern family, each possessing a relatively unique magic circuit.

Originally just failures among the alchemical dolls, but because they were chosen by Yiliya as maids, they were able to live until the start of the plot.

The two drops of colorful water that Liang Yue sent out had extremely strong vitality, and also contained some of his own cultivation marks and power, which could free the two from the identity and life form of alchemical dolls.

Soon, in a burst of colorful light, the two maids were transformed and became normal living beings like the current Yiliya.

Moreover, in terms of vitality and physical strength, they were much stronger than ordinary people!
