Chapter 3: Plane Token

  Time flies like an arrow, years are like a shuttle, and time is like the river water in "Nujiang", flowing slowly to the east, never to return. In the blink of an eye, four years have passed by unintentionally.

  "Luò Zhàn, come out quickly for this young lady!"

  Suddenly, a clear and crisp shout came from outside Luo Zhan's residence, startling everyone within earshot. In an instant, it attracted the attention of many inner disciples who were not far away, all of whom looked on with interest.

  The bed was at the end, Luo Zhan reluctantly slowly withdrew his power, opened and closed his eyes, after four years of cultivation, Luo Zhan's internal strength had reached the perfect state of the third layer of acquired skill, among the many low-grade root bone disciples, he was indeed a standout.

  But Luo Zhen's most ordinary disciples were delighted with his heavy iron sword, which could dance out the "basic sword technique" of "pure and pure fire".

  To know that the technical martial arts boundary is divided into six major levels, initial enlightenment, glimpse of the doorway, entering the hall, fusion and thorough understanding, pure fire, and reaching the peak!

  Luò Zhàn was able to grasp the "Lú Huǒ Chún Qīng" realm of swordsmanship, which, even if only a basic sword technique, could rival the top-notch sword techniques of the "Dēng Táng Rù Shì" realm, and even surpass them. This also shows that Luò Zhàn's comprehension is extraordinary.

  "It's a pity that Luo Tong has moved into the 'Core Disciple' courtyard. Otherwise, he could have helped me block some trouble."

  At the suggestion of Luo Zhan, two years ago, Luo Tong, who had reached the fourth level of the middle period of the Heavenly Dao, passed the test of the core disciples through the inner door disciples and moved to the "Core Disciples" courtyard to receive better cultivation.

  "Mu Girl, what brings you here? Could it be that your swordsmanship has reached a new level?"

  Immediately, Luo Zhuo, who had been thinking for a moment, got out of bed, picked up the wide and thick black sword on the table, and stepped out of the door with a calm expression. He slightly furrowed his brow as he looked towards a 14 or 15-year-old girl standing opposite him, where everyone's gaze was concentrated.

  This woman was none other than the little girl who had defeated Luo Zhu on the "Sword Trial Platform" back then, named Mu Rui'er, a young mistress of a certain Tang's family, often challenging the disciples of the "Nu Jiang Gang" to promote her swordsmanship.

  However, Luo Zhan, who was well-versed in the way of practicing swordsmanship in water, made rapid progress on the path of swordsmanship. After reaching the "Mastery" realm from the "Basic Swordsmanship" last year, he had few equals among his peers.

  Even if Mu Rui'er, who had reached the fifth level of the Heavenly Fate, had mastered a top-notch sword technique and reached the "entering the hall" stage, she would still be no match for Luo Zhu's basic sword technique at the "Lianhuo Chunqing" level.

  "Hmph, whether this young lady's swordsmanship has made great progress will be clear soon enough!"

  Jian De Luo furrowed his brow and asked, but Mu Rui'er's small face turned cold, and after a chilly rebuke, she didn't say another word. She directly charged out with her sword, her speed not slowing in the slightest.

  "Huh?"

  Helpless, Lu Zhan raised his sword, a pang of distress in his heart. He had known it would be like this all along. If only he hadn't won that one game against her earlier, things wouldn't have turned out so badly. Now they were constantly dueling every other day, wasting the time he needed to focus on his bitter training.

  Compared with the skill of killing people, Luo Zhu thought that inner strength is the foundation of everything. Haven't you heard that one force can defeat ten clever calls?

  It is precisely because, at the time when other inferior root bone disciples had just broken through the three layers of acquired heaven, Luo Zhan was able to reach the perfect state of the three layers of acquired heaven, which is largely inseparable from his main cultivation of internal skills, a "specialized move".

  However, Luo Zhuo, who had originally only wanted to deal with Mu Dui'er, suddenly became serious as soon as he exchanged blows with him, and then devoted himself to displaying the basic swordsmanship of the "Furnace Fire Pure Blue" realm.

  "Clang"

  Clang, Clang

  ……

  As the two iron swords collided, a string of sparks splashed out, and the "clang clang" sound of metal clashing, like the striking of a blacksmith's hammer, rang out ceaselessly.

  "Hah!"

  Suddenly, a tearing sound of fabric rent the air, and at the same time, two iron swords that had been locked in a fierce struggle like fighting cocks also came to an abrupt halt, bringing an end to this brief but intense "flash of swordplay".

  "Congenital Sword Technique!"

  He glanced at the two-inch-long slit on his sleeve, and Luo Zhan's eyes narrowed slightly, with a hint of sharpness in his gaze, as he said in a low voice.

  The world's martial arts are diverse, roughly divided into basic martial arts, third-rate martial arts, second-rate martial arts, first-rate martial arts, innate ultimate skills, earth-level ultimate skills, heaven-level ultimate skills, and the legendary transcendent ultimate skills.

  The difference between third-rate, second-rate and first-rate martial arts is not great. Based on Luo Zhandao's foundation swordsmanship that has reached the "pure as jade" realm, it is already comparable to a first-rate swordsmanship that has entered the hall.

  However, congenital absolute learning is different. The congenital swordsmanship that only "glimpses the entrance" can completely overpower the basic swordsmanship of the "furnace fire pure and green" realm. This is also the reason why Luo Zhen's defeat was not taken seriously afterwards.

  "Hmph, what's wrong, scared of me? Fine, let you understand a bit first, come back in two days for a rematch! Hehe..."

  Upon hearing Luo Zhen's low inquiry, Mu Rui'er, who had won the round, was beaming with pride, her words overflowing with joy. Sakura let out a soft hum and hastily said a sentence before lightly laughing "heh heh" and turning to leave.

  "Huh? This time it's actually not a draw!"

  "Wasn't it Luo Zhuang who yielded in secret and didn't succeed?"

  Mu Ruo's victory caused the surrounding disciples who were watching to exclaim in surprise, apparently, for low-ranking disciples with a cultivation level below the fourth layer of the Post-Heavenly stage, it was rare to encounter top-notch martial arts, and it was hard to imagine that even the basic sword technique at the "Furnace Fire Pure" realm could be defeated so easily.

  " Innate talent? What a pity, it's not the right time yet!"

  Staring at the gradually disappearing figure of Mu Rui'er, Luo Zhan took out a palm-sized "bronze plaque" from his bosom and muttered in a low voice with a slightly dazed gaze.

  This is a token that can't be described as exquisite, but it's filled with a hint of ancient charm. On the surface of the "Bronze Token", several green bean-sized crystals, like silver diamonds, are inlaid in a scattered yet harmonious manner, as if they were naturally formed.

  It was this ancient and mysterious "Bronze Plate" that allowed Luo Zhan's soul to cross over, reborn in this world. At the same time, the "Bronze Plate", like a divine artifact, seemed to have a connection with Luo Zhan's soul due to being stained with his fresh blood when he died in his previous life.

  With the help of "Bronze Token", Luo Zhan can not only mentally capture objects and store them in a square-meter-sized Mustard Space inside the "Bronze Token", but more importantly, in this world, Luo Zhan has three chances to randomly traverse the "Martial Arts World Plane".

  However, according to the information from "Bronze Token", Luo Zhen's ability to randomly traverse the "Martial Arts World Plane" is closely related to his cultivation in reality. The stronger his cultivation, the more abundant the spiritual energy of the traversed "Martial Arts World Plane".

  "When I advance to the fourth layer of the Heavenly Boundary after promotion, it will be the opportunity to cross the 'Martial Arts World Plane'."

  For the four years since his rebirth in this realm, Luo Zhan had never used the opportunity to cross over into the "Martial World Plane", instead choosing to accumulate strength and strive for a breakthrough beyond the Fourth Layer of the Acquired Realm.

  The general reason is that the acquired martial artist is divided into nine levels, and the four levels of acquired are already in the middle period. It can be called the first-class martial artist of the acquired initial period, and the dividing line between the second-class martial artist of the acquired middle period.

  It was Luo Zhen, who had the best martial arts in his heart, and did not want to waste the opportunity to travel through the "Martial Arts World" in vain. To know that the warriors of this world are divided into three streams, two streams, one stream, innate strong people, earth list strong people, Tianbang strong people, and Kunshi strong people. If you rely on self-cultivation alone, it is unknown how many years and months it will take to stand out.

  "It's time for sword practice."

  After a moment of contemplation, Luo Zhen's eyes slightly condensed, and he put away the "Plane Copper Plate" in his bosom. He then picked up the heavy "Refined Iron Sword" weighing over 20-30 kilograms in his hand, turned around, and strode towards the banks of the "Nu River".

  "The Spatial Token" contains a space of about one square meter, but Luo Zhan dare not use it freely except for placing some small items such as silver coins, lest he be detected by those with ill intentions. Otherwise, given Luo Zhan's current cultivation level, the consequences would be disastrous.
