Look at the passage over there, it's ten meters in total.
At the end is the sword monument.
After the sword monument, there is the staircase.
If you can walk through it smoothly, you can go up to the second floor.
However, I would like to remind you not to push forward. It is not a shameful thing to retreat when faced with difficulties.
If you are injured by the power of the sword monument because you are trying to be brave, then the gain outweighs the loss."
"Okay, thank you for reminding me."
Lu Chen cupped his hands and walked towards the sword monument passage.
At the same time, he looked around and observed the shape of the entire martial arts tower.
It turns out that what he is currently in is just the lobby of the Martial Arts Tower.
With the lobby as the center, there are passages in all directions.
Directly in front of him is the sword monument passage.
Count down the left and right sides.
There are knife monument passages, gun monument passages, whip monument passages, stick monument passages, hammer monument passages, etc.
It can't be said that everything is available, but at least most of the weapon channels are present.
But for Chase Lu, there is no need to see anything else.
At this moment, there is only the Sword Monument Passage in front of you.
When Lu Chen approached the sword monument passage, the people standing in front of him all moved aside.
But the first person blocked the door and shouted: "Why should you come first? I've been waiting in line for half a day."
Unexpectedly, as soon as this man expressed his grievances, everyone started shouting.
"What are you yelling about!"
"Let Lu Chen try to understand the sword monument first."
"Lu Chen is a genius in swordsmanship and the best swordsman in the inner sect. How do you compare with others?"
"That's right, just wait behind Chase Lu. We just want to see the results of Lu Chen's enlightenment."
A group of people were shouting.
When the man saw that he had aroused public anger, his face turned red. He did not dare to say anything and was about to retreat.
Lu Chen said, "You should come first. I just want to see how to go through the sword monument passage."
"Ah, okay. Everyone heard it. It was Lu Chen who asked me to go in first."
"When you hear it, hurry in and don't waste time."
"The people inside haven't come out yet, how can we get in?"
Several people started arguing again.
It was rare that it was so lively today. The entire first floor of the martial arts tower was noisy. Young people were playing and having fun.
Lu Chen did not pay attention to these things, but stared at the sword monument passage.
At this time, a person was walking forward step by step in the passage.
This person is at the sixth level of the straight line realm. His cultivation level is not low, but his steps are extremely difficult.
Every time he took a step, he had to rest for a long time, and even had to sit cross-legged and meditate, and his back was wet with sweat.
There are only ten steps in the Sword Monument Passage, and he has only reached the sixth step now.
There are still four steps to go, but I just can't take one.
"He'll be at the top if he gets here. If he goes any further, he'll be knocked away by the pressure of the sword monument."
Someone nearby commented: "This man is not talented in swordsmanship and has not understood the true meaning of the sword tablet at all.
The fact that he can walk six steps is all due to his cultivation."
"I see."
Lu Chen nodded and said, "What level has my friend reached to comprehend the Sword Monument?"
The man smiled awkwardly and said, "I didn't even pass the first level.
You see, all of us are stuck here because we didn’t pass the first level.
If you pass the first floor, you will go to the lobby on the second floor."
"It seems that the sword monument is very difficult."
Lu Chen sighed with emotion and said: "You are already at the seventh level of the straight line realm, and you haven't even been able to walk past the first floor. I don't know which floor I can walk to."
The man said: "My talent in swordsmanship is not good, so I can't compare with you.
If you can leapfrog and defeat Mullin, you must be awesome.
If you reach my level, you can definitely walk through the first level.
But today is your first time, so just practice and understand it.
Wait until your cultivation level improves, and then come back to understand.
After all, you can’t become a fat man with just one bite.”
"That's right."
Lu Chen nodded with deep understanding.
Then I saw people coming out of the sword monument passage, shaking their heads and sighing.
Then, the man in front of him walked cautiously into the sword monument passage.
Lu Chen quickly looked closely to observe this person's reaction.
Ta-ta-ta.
I saw this man take three quick steps and fall to his knees with a plop.
"..."
Lu Chen's expression was stunned.
The man next to him sneered: "This idiot must be here for the first time and doesn't understand at all.
In the Sword Monument Passage, you have to slowly understand how you can walk so fast."
Lu Chen listened and took it to heart.
He couldn't wait to walk into the passage.
In the passageway of the sword monument, the young man who was kneeling slowly got up, turned around and walked back with a disgraced face.
His kneecaps were all white, visible to the naked eye.
You can imagine how much pressure he had just received. He almost smashed his knees and became disabled.
"It's terrible."
He walked out of the passage, his face pale and he kept mumbling.
And when he saw Chase Lu still going inside, he couldn't help but advise: "Brother, be careful, don't walk too fast."
"Thanks for the reminder."
Lu Chen nodded heavily.
He took a breath and stepped into the passage of the sword monument.
Wow.
Everything around seemed to have changed.
There was silence in the sword monument passage, and all the noise outside could not be heard.
Lu Chen looked intently and saw two words written on the sword tablet at the end of the passage: Ru Lu.
"What's the meaning?"
Chase Lu was a little strange and subconsciously took a step forward to take a closer look.
call.
Suddenly a gust of wind blew around, and a faint pressure lingered.
Lu Chen's body trembled slightly, and the pressure was shaken off by him.
"So simple?"
He felt a little weird, thinking that maybe he just took one step.
clatter.
He took another step forward.
It felt like the speed was faster, but it was still easily shaken off by myself.
Ta-ta-ta.
Lu Chen took three steps in a row, feeling slightly nervous.
Because the lesson learned from the previous person was still there, I was afraid that if I stepped too hard this time, the pressure from the sword monument would rebound.
However, even though the pressure was much faster, he was still easily shaken off by himself.
"The speed of this pressure seems a bit slow."
Lu Chen shook his head, feeling that this sword monument had no merit.
So he took the last five steps at once and came to the sword monument.
"Like dew."
Lu Chen muttered silently and touched the sword monument with his right hand.
Hiss hiss.
One after another, subtle yet sharp scratches were directed at his fingers, but disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"What do you mean?"
Lu Chen was puzzled.
He touched it again, carefully appreciating the sharp and subtle power.
After a long time, he was still puzzled, so he had to ignore it and walked up the stairs behind the sword monument.
…
"What just happened?"
Outside the sword stele passage, everyone looked at each other in confusion.
This was Lu Chen's first time to understand the sword monument, and he walked over as if strolling in a garden.
Is this still called enlightenment?
There is no understanding at all.
Except for Lu Chen who stopped in front of the sword monument for a while, this guy didn't take a good look at the sword monument at all.
So how can he get to the second floor?
Everyone was stunned and couldn't understand this scene at all.
"Why?"
The young man whose knee was smashed just now looked confused: "Who can tell me why?
Doesn't coercion work on Lu Chen? Geniuses have such preferential treatment?"
"Who the hell knows why? Ask Lu Chen when he comes out!"
"Let's go to the second floor quickly and take a look."
As soon as one person said hello, everyone immediately ran up the stairs in the center of the lobby.
At this time, Elder Heron outside the martial arts tower saw the commotion inside, so he walked in and said, "What are you doing?
Where is Lu Chen? He hasn’t understood the Sword Monument yet. Are you making things difficult for him?
Everyone in line should get out of the way quickly so that we can have something to do after he finishes his enlightenment."
"Elder."
A weak voice sounded: "We didn't make things difficult for him, it was Lu Chen who went up to the second floor."
"Go to the second floor?
Why go to the second floor if you don't understand the sword monument? Do you still want to directly understand the sword monument on the second floor?
This guy!"
Elder Heron frowned dissatisfied.
One person said: "Elder, you are wrong. It was Lu Chen who passed the sword monument on the first floor."
"Passed? Impossible, how long has it been?"
Heron didn't believe it at all.
The man had no choice but to say, "Elder, let's go upstairs with us and watch.
You can't imagine how outrageous Lu Chen is, he walked past the first floor without even looking at the sword monument."
"..."
Heron still didn't believe it, but found that everyone was nodding and was speechless.
He followed everyone up doubtfully.
The Martial Arts Tower has nine floors in total. The lobby on the first floor is the largest, followed by the second floor, and so on, with the lobby on the top floor being the smallest.
Under normal circumstances, people will not go to the second floor for no reason.
But now, a group of people rushed forward out of curiosity, and the lobby on the second floor was suddenly crowded.
He was originally the next one to enter, but when he saw Lu Chen, a famous person, coming up, he immediately asked Lu Chen to start first, wanting to see the genius' abilities.
Then, his expression froze.
"Where are the people?"
Elder Heron stepped over in one step, looked into the sword monument passage, and suddenly made an angry sound.
This disciple actually dares to lie to himself, how brave he is!
"He just walked up to the third floor..."
This disciple said weakly.
Elder Heron said angrily: "You just entered the passage, and you just walked up to the third floor. What did you mean just now?"
"I really just walked up there, we all saw it with our own eyes."
This disciple feels extremely wronged.
Everything I say is true, why don't you believe me?
"Damn it, go to the third floor!"
Elder Heron made foul language and felt unhappy.
Could it be that Chase Lu could be lost from under his nose?
The lobby on the third floor is even smaller, and some people can't squeeze in.
Elder Heron took the lead and came to the entrance of the sword monument passage and took a closer look.
I saw a familiar figure inside.
Who is it if it’s not Lu Chen?
"He actually went to the third floor, and there was nothing unusual about standing there. How did he do it?"
Elder Heron was stunned.
"Look, what I said is right, I really went to the third floor."
The disciple whispered beside him, feeling proud and proud.
"Shut up!"
Elder Heron glared at him.
The disciple did not dare to speak and cast his gaze inside the passage.
There, Lu Chen stood still.
"Like dusk."
Lu Chen looked at the words on the sword tablet and thought about its true meaning.
On the first floor of the sword tablet, it is written: Ru Lu.
On the second floor of the sword stele, it is written: Just like electricity.
On the third floor of the sword stele, it is written: Ru Mu.
In fact, when he reached the second floor, Lu Chen knew what Ru Lu on the first floor meant.
When the two sentences are put together, they are like dew and lightning.
Dew refers to morning dew.
As soon as the sun comes up, the morning dew will dissipate, which means it is fleeting.
In terms of swordsmanship, the secret of the first-level sword monument is to be quick when drawing a sword.
A sword is about to be fired in the blink of an eye, and the move is ethereal and fleeting.
Lu Chen has already understood this level, so he can pass it easily.
The second layer is like electricity.
It means not only being fast, but also having enough lethality. Lu Chen has already understood this.
