Longevity: Start From The Entry Of Luck

Chapter 24: The Power of Luck

After a moment.

Mo Ye led Jiang Yuan and the others to the basement.

Then he pushed open a stone wall.

Through the cracks in the stone wall, a dazzling light shone, reflecting cold rays onto Jiang Yuan's pupils.

Seeing this scene, Old Ma exclaimed, "No wonder the Mo family ironworks, with hundreds of years of history, would hide so many divine weapons."

Mo Ye also proudly said, "These are all weapons passed down through generations in our family, accidentally created and preserved. Each one can be called a true divine weapon, capable of cutting iron like mud and easily cutting hair. Compared to the famous Qianduan Longquan Sword, it is like the difference between a firefly and the moon."

Gu Mo also nodded in agreement.

Seeing the room full of divine weapons, a hint of excitement appeared in his eyes.

Especially those few ancient swords shimmering with cold light, they firmly attracted his gaze, making it impossible for him to look away.

At this moment, Jiang Yuan's eyes also revealed a hint of surprise.

In his line of sight, among the room full of divine weapons, one ancient sword stood out, capturing his attention.

The ancient sword was a deep blue color, deeply embedded in a black stone connected to the ground, with only half of the blade and the hilt exposed.

In Jiang Yuan's line of sight, countless strands of golden mist swirled around the ancient sword.

It was the power of Luck?

Could so much Luck gather on one ancient sword?

Jiang Yuan was extremely astonished.

Could it be that the previous owner of this ancient sword possessed extraordinary Innate Luck?

And this sword had been by his side day and night.

Otherwise, how could one explain why so much Luck could gather on one ancient sword?

Thinking of this, Jiang Yuan walked into the secret room.

Pointing at the ancient sword in his eyes, filled with golden mist, he asked, "Master Mo, this sword looks extraordinary! Does it have any special origin?"

Mo Ye glanced at Jiang Yuan.

"You have a keen eye, Mr. Jiang. The most precious thing in this secret room is indeed this ancient sword, named Gan Jiang!"

"Gan Jiang?" Jiang Yuan was surprised.

"Yes, it is Gan Jiang! According to our family records, this was the sword forged by our Mo ancestors."

Jiang Yuan stared at the sword and asked, "Can I choose this sword?"

Mo Ye nodded, "Yes! According to the family records, whoever can pull out this sword can take it away. But..."

"But what?"

Mo Ye pondered for a moment and said, "But this sword has a spirit. Only those recognized by the sword can pull it out. Mr. Jiang, you probably won't be able to do it."

Jiang Yuan smiled, "Let me give it a try!"

After speaking, he approached the ancient sword.

He held the hilt with both hands and silently chanted in his heart.

[Absorb!]

In an instant, strands of golden mist swiftly flowed into his hand and were absorbed in an instant.

Jiang Yuan exerted force and pulled the ancient sword, but it didn't budge.

Mo Ye shook his head and said, "I told you, it can't be pulled out! Over the years, countless people have tried, but no one has been able to pull out this sword."

Jiang Yuan remained silent and exerted force with both arms again.

Boom!

The ground beneath their feet trembled slightly, and everyone's figures swayed.

Mo Ye looked at Jiang Yuan in shock.

Such strength!

This kid is hiding so much power. No wonder I felt uneasy just now.

Jiang Yuan slowly released his hands and shook his head, "Indeed, it can't be pulled out!"

Gu Mo's eyes were filled with excitement, "Young Master, let me give it a try!"

"Alright!"

Jiang Yuan nodded slightly and stepped aside.

Then he opened his own panel and glanced at it.

[Name]: Jiang Yuan

[Cultivation]: Body Tempering Realm, Seventh Stage

[Innate Luck]: Boundless Longevity (Purple), Dragon and Tiger Body (Blue), Outstanding Comprehension (Green)

[Power of Luck]: 38 strands

[Luck Seeds]: None

Thirty-eight strands, so many?

Jiang Yuan's eyes narrowed, feeling extremely surprised.

This result was somewhat unexpected to him.

After all, the Luck power gathered on Gu Mo's body earlier was only a dozen strands.

But the Luck power gathered on this ancient sword Gan Jiang reached a staggering 38 strands.

The difference between the two was nearly three times.

However, the Luck power on Gu Mo's body was renewable, accumulating one strand every day.

The Luck power on this ancient sword was probably not renewable, only a one-time harvest.

At this moment.

Suddenly, a cry of surprise from Mo Ye reached Jiang Yuan's ears.

"This is impossible!!"

Jiang Yuan quickly looked over upon hearing the sound.

He saw the ancient sword that he couldn't move no matter how hard he tried.

This sword was now being casually wielded by Gu Mo, and for a moment, the room was filled with cold light and a formidable sword aura.

Mo Ye's face was filled with shock and disbelief.

Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "Master Mo, can you still stand by what you just said?"

Mo Ye composed himself and said, "Of course! According to our ancestral rules, I will definitely abide by them!"

Then he looked at Gu Mo and said, "From today onwards, this sword belongs to you. I hope you will take good care of it and not tarnish its reputation."

Gu Mo nodded and said, "Of course, the sword is my second life. How can I not cherish it?"

Upon hearing Gu Mo's words, Mo Ye instantly felt relieved.

Then he said, "Follow me, I have prepared a scabbard for you. In the future, remember not to draw the sword casually. This sword has a significant background, and if recognized by someone knowledgeable, it could endanger your life."

Gu Mo nodded.

Then, Mo Ye walked to the wall and pressed a few bricks, instantly revealing a hidden compartment.

He took out a scabbard and tossed it to Gu Mo.

"Furthermore, this scabbard has the effect of concealing its aura. Once the sword is sheathed, no one can recognize its origin."

Jiang Yuan raised his hand and said, "Thank you, Master Mo, for your generous gift!"

Mo Ye waved his hand and said, "It's all in accordance with our ancestral rules! You may leave now!"

"Then I bid farewell!" Jiang Yuan bowed.

Afterwards, he happily walked out of the Mo family's iron shop.

This trip was quite fruitful, not only did he unexpectedly gain 38 strands of Luck power, but Gu Mo also unexpectedly obtained a powerful divine weapon.

These two things were priceless and couldn't be measured by their value.

After Jiang Yuan left the secret room.

Mo Ye immediately pounded his chest and stomped his feet, his face filled with discomfort.

To give away the treasured sword that had been passed down in his family for hundreds of years, how could he not feel distressed?

But the ancestral rules must not be broken.

Whoever can draw this sword is its rightful owner, and future generations must not obstruct this matter for any reason or excuse.

This matter had been instilled in his mind by his father since he was young.

Now, even if he felt heartbroken, how could he violate the ancestral law?

The three of them returned to Zhenyuan Escort Agency.

Gu Mo personally dug a hole and buried the broken iron sword.

Two days later.

Black Wind Village.

"Brothers, who wants to come with me to rob some silver?" Lei Zhan shouted.

"Second-in-command, I'll go!"

"I'll go!"

"Second-in-command, take me with you!"

"..."

Seeing the enthusiastic response from his subordinates below, Lei Zhan's face lit up with a happy smile.

"Little brother, when we enter Lin'an County this time, don't be as ostentatious as last time."

"What's there to fear? With big brother here, who in that county would dare to touch me?"

The bald man shook his head and said, "After all, I'm just a discarded disciple of the Rotten Ke Temple. If it weren't for him considering our brotherhood, you would have been dealt with for being so ostentatious last time!"

"You must know, this is the territory of the Sunset Sect!"

Upon hearing the three words "Sunset Sect," Lei Zhan nodded.

"Alright then! I'll listen to big brother. This time, I'll take a few skilled men to bring back the silver and won't cause any trouble!"

"Good, go!"

The bald man said.

Then, Lei Zhan raised his hand and pointed at a few people, "The three of you come with me to Zhenyuan Escort Agency to transport the silver, and when we come back, we'll distribute the silver to everyone."

"Yes, second-in-command!"

The three men happily responded.

Only with someone as powerful as the second-in-command could they have the opportunity to enter the city.

How could they not be happy about such a rare opportunity?

"Wait!" The bald man suddenly spoke up.

"What's wrong, big brother?"

"I have a bad feeling. I'll go with you. I'll wait for you outside the city."

"There's no need, big brother. What could go wrong? Last time, I caused no problems when I was so ostentatious. This time, I'll go quickly and come back quickly. How could anything go wrong?"

"Big brother, you just stay here and prepare some fine wine for me. When I come back, we'll have a celebration without getting drunk!"

The bald man shook his head and said, "Let's go! I'll go with you!"

"Alright then! I'll listen to big brother!"
