This Sword Cultivator is Somewhat Dependable

Chapter 448: Chapter 4 Tidal Break (Major Section)_2

“Your sword momentum is like a mountain, heavy beyond compare, but due to this, it lacks agility. If you could draw upon some of the continuity of water, you would surely make further progress,” Jade Wave Sword Qianliu suddenly advised.

Upon hearing this, Qin He couldn’t help but be slightly startled. He closed his eyes, as if realizing something. Moments later, he suddenly opened his eyes and bowed with his hands clasped, “Thank you for the guidance.”

“No need, it was just a small effort on my part. Isn’t that why we, the Sword Cleansing Pool, hold this grand event of sword cleansing on the Fengling River? To meet friends through swordplay and benefit all sword cultivators in the world,” Jade Wave Sword said indifferently.

It seemed as if these words had struck a chord with Qin He. He pondered for a moment, then suddenly said loudly, “The Sword Cleansing Pool has a heart for assisting sword cultivators throughout the world, truly a great righteousness. Today, I am inspired to speak, even if it may be seen as highly inappropriate.”

“The Sword Sect may be strong, but its threshold is high as the sky, with only a rare few capable of joining its ranks.

So no matter how strong it is, it only strengthens itself, which is meaningless to sword cultivators around the world.

Don’t you see that in the Eastern Domain, due to the overpowering brilliance of the Sword Sect, other smaller sword cultivation sects have scarce inheritance.

But the Sword Cleansing Pool is different. It widely recruits disciples from around the world, aiming to strengthen the sword cultivators as its mission. It never limits its vision to just one sect, never suppressing other sword cultivation sects.

Moreover, it is willing to send disciples from among its ranks to hold this grand sword cleansing event on the Fengling River, allowing young sword cultivators with aspirations from around the world to exchange views. This has made the Western Domain a place where myriad sword cultivation sects flourish.

In comparison with the Sword Sect, the Sword Cleansing Pool is only lacking a leading Sword Immortal. In all other aspects, it is in no way inferior and could even be said to be superior.

In my opinion, the true leader of development in the Sword Dao is not the Eastern Domain Sword Sect but the Western Domain Sword Cleansing Pool.

As long as there comes a day when the Sword Cleansing Pool produces a revered Sword Immortal, it will surely replace the Eastern Domain Sword Sect and become the number one sword cultivation sect in the world!” Qin He declared in a resolute and emphatic manner.

A single stone caused a thousand ripples, and immediately, a commotion ensued among the cultivators watching “the tide,” with a buzz of discussions.

The prestige and status of the Sword Sect in the hearts of sword cultivators the world over had already taken deep root.

Qin He’s words, no doubt, were challenging authority.

But after a moment’s thought, it had to be said that there seemed to be some sense in it.

…

Inside the Tide Watching Tower.

Lu Qingshan’s eyes had already narrowed as he sized up the Family Head of the Qin Family, who was admitting inferiority before Jade Wave Sword but speaking eloquently in favor of Sword Cleansing Pool, full of praise.

Such poor acting.

How could a family head be so overwhelmed by a few rather insignificant pointers from Jade Wave Sword and be so lacking in depth as to be inspired to speak out?

By this time, he had understood that this old supporting character among the sword cultivators was actually a plant sent by the Sword Cleansing Pool.

The main purpose was to use someone else’s mouth, under the public eye, to say, “Aside from lacking a Sword Immortal, the Sword Cleansing Pool is already on par with the Sword Sect in all other aspects, maybe even surpassing it.”

To create this momentum, subtly influencing the world’s sword cultivators’ view of the Sword Cleansing Pool.

If this statement came from someone of the Sword Cleansing Pool, it would unavoidably give off a vibe of self-praise, which wouldn’t be very effective and could even be seen as a direct challenge to the Sword Sect.

But if the statement came from a sword cultivator unrelated to the Sword Cleansing Pool, uttered in a circumstance of genuine admiration and submission, it would appear as if Qin He was won over by the Sword Cleansing Pool, indirectly reinforcing its allure.

Indeed, it was clever.

Lu Qingshan reflected inwardly.

This would have been nothing more than an ordinary public relations tactic in his world,

One that everyone had already tired of, fooling very few.

But in this world, it still seemed novel, and looking at the effect, it appeared to be quite successful.

Who would have thought that sword cultivators, often so spontaneous and willful, could also ply such cunning schemes?

Yet…

Lu Qingshan scoffed internally.

It wouldn’t have mattered if he hadn’t seen it.

But now that he had… since someone was belittling his own sect to elevate the Sword Cleansing Pool, as a disciple of the Sword Sect, it would be utterly indefensible to remain indifferent.

“Li Baoping.” Lu Qingshan put down his chopsticks and looked at the slowly advancing tide.

“Hmm? What’s up?” Li Baoping responded with confusion upon being called, not understanding the sudden statement from Lu Qingshan.

“I think it won’t be long before your wish comes true,” Lu Qingshan said softly to the girl with the pleasurable little face, smiling slightly, “Then you can say to others that not only have you talked with a monk on the Yellow List, but you’ve even dined with one.”

“What do you mean?” Li Baoping couldn’t keep up, still baffled by Lu Qingshan’s sudden remark.

Then, she realized that their companion along the way, who had an appealing demeanor, suddenly stood up and leaped, his figure turning into a streak of Radiance that shot vigorously towards the surging tide crest of the Fengling River.

The tide of the Fengling River at that moment was as rapid as thunder, swell after swell arriving, inching nearer with each passing moment.

Thunder gathered over the sea, while a waterfall raged in the center of the river.

With the formation of the great tide, Heaven and Earth seemed hazy. Those with lower cultivation, even with Spiritual Power running through their eyes, could not see through the dense water mist.

Only that blue-robed sword cultivator of the Sword Cleansing Pool, standing proudly atop the tide crest, stood with his hand on his sword.

With a spirit that was soaring and a visage that was suave, he captivated the hearts and minds of countless female cultivators.

Sword cultivators have always been the most romantic kind of cultivator, winning the affection of women since ancient times.

…… @@novelbin@@

The tide was surging and vast, like a towering white wall.

Rising like dragon frolics, rushing like startled pellets of rain and hail.

The spray of water, like beads small and large, fell as if on a jade plate, noisy and hissing.
