The number of Sword Qi in the Sword Gourd was exactly nine. Nine was the extreme number. The number of heaven and earth began with one and ended with nine. Lu Ye could not help but ponder about this number.
Because he had slightly refined the Sword Gourd, he could clearly sense the existence of these nine Sword Qi. He could even feel that these nine Sword Qi could be released at will.
In other words, these nine newly born Sword Qi were completely under his control.
He just did not know how powerful they were.
Lu Ye took out the Breath Fruit Core and spent 200 merit points to enter the mirage realm to try.
After a while, he opened his eyes with excitement.
After some testing, he found that the Sword Qi in the Sword Gourd was extremely lethal. The power of each Sword Qi was equivalent to his full strength attack.
And this was under the premise that he did not activate the power of the Sword Gourd itself. Because the Sword Gourd's grade was too high, he could not activate its power at all. He could only control the Sword Qi's own power.
If he could activate the power of the Sword Gourd one day, the Sword Qi's power would be greatly increased.
After pondering for a while, Lu Ye quickly took out a large number of spoils from the storage space and let the Sword Gourd devour them.
Every Spiritual Artifact that entered the Sword Gourd would disappear in an extremely short amount of time, turning into nine streaks of Sword Qi. CC First
This token from the Sword Tool Sect was like a fierce beast. No matter how many Spiritual Weapons Lu Ye took out, it would devour them all. There was no limit to it.
Lu Ye had a lot of spoils. In the past, he could only sell them to the Tianji Treasure House in exchange for merit points. But now, with the increase of his cultivation, merit points were not very useful to him.
He could use them to feed the Sword Gourd …
Half an hour later, Lu Ye sensed that there were countless Sword Qi in the Sword Gourd.
However, he soon discovered a problem. Every spirit weapon that was swallowed by the Sword Gourd would turn into nine rays of sword Qi. However, the strength of these rays of sword Qi seemed to be related to the grade of the spirit weapon. Therefore, the sword Qi in the Sword Gourd was different.
At first, there was no comparison, so he did not notice this, but now he found it.
He took out the Breath Fruit Core again and entered the mirage realm to try again.
In the end, he came to the conclusion that there was indeed a difference between strong and weak Sword Qi. It was directly related to the grade of the Spiritual Weapon that the Blade Gourd devoured. The higher the grade of the Spiritual Weapon, the stronger the Sword Qi that was converted.
However, no matter how weak the Sword Qi was, it was equivalent to an ordinary slash from his saber. Once the Sword Qi transformed from an upper-grade spiritual weapon was activated, it was almost the same as an all-out attack from him. As for the Sword Qi transformed from an ultra-grade spiritual weapon, it was even sharper!
Lu Ye didn't let the Blade Gourd devour any Dharma artifact grade spirit weapons. The main reason was that he only had the Pan Shan Saber. He couldn't let the Blade Gourd devour it.
But according to the current pattern, if the Sword Gourd could devour a Spiritual Artifact, the power of the Sword Qi produced would most likely exceed his own strength!
Lu Ye finally understood the mysteries of the Sword Gourd. With this treasure in hand, as long as he had enough resources, he could unleash strength beyond his own.
Li Taibai's identity was a sword cultivator. He originally wanted to find time to go to the Tianji Treasure Vault to buy a few more flying swords, but from the looks of it now, it was completely unnecessary.
With the Sword Gourd in hand, why would he need a flying sword? Every single sword energy was equivalent to a flying sword!
Li Baxian could control a hundred swords back then, which made Lu Ye gasp in amazement. But now, not only could he control a hundred swords, he could even control a thousand or ten thousand swords.
Of course, Sword Qi was different from a real flying sword. Once Sword Qi was released, it would disappear. Flying swords could be retrieved.
At the moment, he still couldn't activate the Sword Gourd's power. If he could one day activate the Sword Gourd's power, who knew what kind of changes would occur to the Sword Qi contained within?
Lu Ye originally thought that the greatest benefit he'd gained from the Sword Instrument Sect's secret realm was that he'd gained a rudimentary understanding of the art of refining. But now, it seemed that the Sword Gourd was the greatest benefit.
With this Sword Gourd, he was a true sword cultivator. The original high-grade Spiritual Artifact sword had been devoured, so Lu Ye found a supreme-grade Spiritual Artifact sword to replace it.
As for the Dharma artifact sword he'd originally planned to buy from the Tianji Treasure Vault … it was completely unnecessary now.
There was a light knock on the door.
Lu Ye waved at Yiyi and Hu Po. The two understood, and Yiyi quickly entered Hu Po's body. Hu Po jumped over and was put into Lu Ye's Spiritual Beast Pouch.
He got up and opened the door. As expected, Tong Shuyao was standing outside.
"Junior Brother Taibai, you're finally willing to see me?" Tong Shuyao looked unhappy.
The main reason was that she'd come to see Lu Ye several times in the past two days, but Lu Ye didn't respond each time. Most cultivators were cultivating in seclusion, so she didn't want to disturb them too much. Every time, she'd come in high spirits only to return in disappointment.
Lu Ye didn't want to see her, nor did he want to have anything to do with her. But hiding like this wasn't a solution.
Since he'd gone deep into the enemy's camp, he naturally couldn't stay in seclusion forever. He should go out and take a look. Only then would this trip be worthwhile.
"What's the matter?" Lu Ye asked with a calm expression.
"Can't I come to see you if there's nothing?" Tong Shuyao pouted. She put her hands behind her back and leaned forward slightly, looking a little playful.
Lu Ye's gaze moved down a little uncontrollably. The dojo's enemy wouldn't lose his balance and fall to the ground.
Faintly sensing Lu Ye's gaze, Tong Shuyao's face turned slightly red. She immediately stood up straight, puffed out her chest, and grabbed Lu Ye's arm. "Let's go. I'll take you to see something fun."
She didn't care if Lu Ye agreed or not, and soared into the air. Lu Ye could only helplessly follow.
Along the way, many Myriad Devil Ridge cultivators set off from the Dark Moon Forest Pass and rushed in the same direction. It was extremely lively.
Some cultivators who knew Tong Shuyao came to strike up a conversation with her, but they were all mercilessly chased away by Xiao Lishu.
Lu Ye immediately sensed a lot of unhappy gazes on him.
This reminded him of the Myriad Devil Ridge cultivator who'd warned him to stay away from Tong Shuyao, or else he'd die a horrible death. In the end, he died with remaining grievances …
The destination didn't seem to be near. After flying for a while, they still hadn't arrived.
Lu Ye didn't ask too much. He just looked around with a look of extreme curiosity. He didn't know what he wanted to see. Since he was already here, it wouldn't hurt to look around.
Tong Shuyao had nothing to say, and Lu Ye just responded.
This made Tong Shuyao feel helpless, but she faintly sensed that this Junior Brother Tai Bai beside her seemed to have a naturally cold temperament, and it wasn't directed at her.
Thinking of this, she felt a little better.
Finally, after flying for a few hundred kilometres, they arrived at a lively place. Lu Ye looked from afar and saw two figures fighting endlessly in an open space. Their Spiritual Energy surged, and the battle was abnormally fierce. On the periphery of this battlefield, near the Dark Moon Forest Pass, a large number of cultivators gathered in the sky and on the ground.
On the other side, there was also a large number of cultivators gathered.
The two sides were separated by the open space in the middle of the battlefield, facing each other from afar. They were like fire and water.
Lu Ye didn't understand what was going on, and didn't know what was going on. He followed Tong Shuyao to the crowd and found a place to stand, watching the battle from above.
At this time, the two people fighting were both Armament Cultivators. One used a saber, the other a spear, and their cultivations were at the Third or Fourth Order True Lake Realm.
The battle between Armament Cultivators was the most dangerous. Every move was deadly. On the other side, there was also a large number of cultivators gathered.

The battle between Armament Cultivators was the most dangerous. Every move was deadly, and every move was deadly.
Similarly, it was the most interesting to watch.
These two people were definitely cultivators from two different camps, otherwise, they wouldn't be fighting so fiercely. However, Lu Ye didn't know which one of them was from Grand Heaven Alliance, and which one was from Myriad Demons Ridge.
However, he focused more of his attention on the saber cultivator. No matter what, he was also a saber cultivator.
Although his current saber technique was probably far superior to that of cultivators in the same realm, Lu Ye would not become arrogant just because of his various opportunities.
As he watched, Lu Ye couldn't help but have some doubts.
He didn't know why, but he felt that this saber cultivator looked familiar … He vaguely felt like he had seen him somewhere before.
But after thinking about it, he was sure that he had never seen this person before.
This feeling was very strange.
When he took a closer look, he discovered another strange thing.
The saber cultivator's saber techniques gave him a strong sense of déjà vu.
While he was watching, Tong Shuyao took the initiative to explain the situation to him. "The two camps have been fighting for thousands of years. The Military Province is divided into two, and each camp occupies half of it. There are many mountain passes at the front line that are facing each other. Some of the battles are extremely fierce, while others are relatively peaceful. Our Dark Moon Forest Pass is one of the more peaceful mountain passes."
"But no matter how peaceful it is, some battles are inevitable. Large-scale battles don't happen often, but these kinds of private small-scale battles happen almost every day. Junior Martial Brother Tai Bai, you've just come to the Nine States and joined the State Guard, so you probably haven't obtained any battle merits. To every cultivator, battle merits are extremely important. Those mountain passes with frequent battles are naturally easy to obtain battle merits, but it's not so easy to obtain battle merits in our Dark Moon Forest Pass and the Shocking Waves Lake Pass on the opposite side, because usually, you're invincible."
"So the Divine Ocean Realm cultivators on both sides came up with an idea. It's like the battle you're seeing now. Every victory will be rewarded with battle merits. I'm not sure about the rewards at the Shocking Waves Lake Pass, but here at the Dark Moon Forest Pass, every victory will be rewarded with a thousand battle merits. If you can kill the enemy, then you'll get two thousand points."
Lu Ye nodded slightly, finally understanding the situation in front of him. This was the show that Tong Shuyao had brought him here to watch.
In fact, it wasn't just the Dark Moon Forest Pass and the Shocking Waves Lake Pass that were like this. At the front lines of the two camps, there were many similar situations at many mountain passes.
Under the premise that there was no war, if cultivators wanted to obtain battle merits, they could only rely on their monthly salary. But if their military rank wasn't high, their monthly salary wouldn't be much.
Lu Ye was now a lieutenant, and under the care of the Yearning Moon Immortal, he held two positions, and his monthly salary was only sixty thousand battle merits. If it were other cultivators, just the battle merits they received every month wouldn't be enough to satisfy their cultivation needs.
