Chapter 134: Blocking the Way, White Jade Token

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

[Suona II

Type: Mid bronze passive skill

You are proficient in playing suonas.]

“I feel like I really have gained some knowledge related to suonas.”

Zhou Chen was speechless. He had never dreamed that he would one day learn to play the suona.

“It doesn’t matter, knowledge is no burden.”

Although the suona was jokingly called a rogue instrument1, Zhou Chen did not dislike it.

“By the way, since suona can form a passive skill, can I obtain a drawing related passive skill by killing the people who are proficient in drawing?”

An idea struck Zhou Chen.

“This is interesting… If I can directly obtain a passive drawing skill, I won’t have to spend time learning how to draw. My Card Creator cultivation can directly advance by a huge step!”

The reason why Zhou Chen wanted to obtain a passive drawing skill was that his Card Creator training had a certain relationship with his drawing skills. Moreover, his drawing skills were very low and could not meet his requirements.

“I can think about this. Since there are even combat skills using musical instruments in this world, there’s no reason not to have combat-oriented drawing techniques.”

To Zhou Chen, finding a high-grade cultivation technique that was suitable for him was his top priority. However, he could also take care of the cultivation matters of the Card Creator. Although he did not have much hope in the Card Creator class, since he had already taken up the class, he would not deliberately abandon it and gradually develop it.

“F*ck, the other five robbers ran so far! Forget it.”

Just as he made up his mind, Zhou Chen realized that the remaining five robbers had already fled far away. It would be a little difficult for him to chase after them now. He might have to use the Windrun skill for a long time to catch up to them, so he did not hesitate and directly gave up. He had no motivation to continue this battle. These people were too weak, and he was just playing with them.

Zhou Chen began a task that he was very familiar with: Corpse looting.

First, he searched the pocket of the suona player’s corpse and found some silver pieces. Then, he picked up his suona and looked at it. In the end, he did not pocket it. The reason was simple. Since this person had used this suona before, he did not feel at ease using it. It was also not marked by the system. Even if he took it, he would not be able to bring it out of this world.

After looting the suona man’s corpse, Zhou Chen walked to the two masked men’s corpses. He took out some copper coins and silver pieces from their pockets. Then, he sat on his horse, leading the other three horses to continue toward his destination.

The three horses he was leading were the horses that the three robbers had ridden. They were lucky to not have been injured in the battle just now, so they were easily recruited by Zhou Chen, who had the Beast King passive skill.

“Hehe, I have four horses now. I can change horses when mine gets tired and save time.”

With many horses, Zhou Chen could reach his destination somewhat early. In any case, with the Beast King passive skill, he could easily control these animals.

While riding under the moonlight and leading the three horses, Zhou Chen opened his inventory and glanced at the new cultivation technique he had obtained earlier, the Requiem Scripture.

[Requiem Scripture

Type: Low-grade cultivation technique

Cultivating this technique requires proficiency in at least one of xiao, flute, zither, pipa, drum, erhu, and suona. When you are initiated, you can awaken the Sound Elemental True Energy. You can attack the target through the instrument. At the partial mastery stage, you can reach the level of a Martial Dao Expert. At the full mastery stage, you can reach the level of a Martial Dao Master.]

“Although this cultivation technique is not high ranked, it has its charm. If only it was flute passive skill instead of suona, the bone flute would be perfect for this cultivation technique.”

After reading the description of the cultivation technique, Zhou Chen immediately felt some resentment towards the person just now. There were clearly so many instruments to choose from, but he had to choose a suona. Wouldn’t playing a flute look more stylish?

Time passed slowly. Zhou Chen did not encounter any accidents throughout the night. When dawn broke, he arrived at a small city and handed his four horses to a stable to recuperate.

Zhou Chen specially found a non-Wulong Inn to stay in and experience the novelty of other inns.

He rested for half a day, bought a new set of clothes, and set off again.

Apart from the horse he rode, he only brought one spare horse. He sold the other two horses to the stable.

According to his estimate, if everything went smoothly, he would only need three days to reach Furnace Mountain.

“I’d really like a woman but my horse is half lame

I’ll spend the day looking at Chang’an’s pretty girls.1”

Zhou Chen unhurriedly walked towards his destination while riding the horse and reading the non-existent poem in this world.

A day later, he encountered a young man dressed in white blocking the path.

This white-clothed young man looked to have an extraordinary demeanor. He had a sword at his waist, but there were a few bright red bloodstains on his white clothes, making people doubt his identity.

After stopping Zhou Chen, the white-clothed young man cupped his hands and said to him, “Brother, are you going to Sword Furnace City? Can you lend me a horse? I’ll definitely pay you heavily when we reach Sword Furnace City!”

“Sure. You can ride this horse.”

Zhou Chen did not refuse this person’s request.

This was because he felt that although the man looked somewhat suspicious with the traces of blood on him, his demeanor was not bad. He seemed to have a high status and could be a guide to Sword Furnace City.

Sword Furnace City was the main city controlled by the Furnace Mountain Sword Sect, and it was very close to its headquarters.

After a while, the two of them became familiar with each other. Of course, this was not only because Zhou Chen was actively communicating, but also because this white-clothed young man was more talkative.

After feeling that they had gotten past the introduction phase, Zhou Chen asked, “Young Master Lin, forgive me for asking, but where did the blood on your body come from?”

Young Master Lin said regretfully, “It’s okay. The blood on my clothes was left from the battle yesterday. It’s all the blood of my opponent. Unfortunately, although I defeated that person, I didn’t find what I wanted and even lost my treasured horse.”

“Can you tell me what you’re looking for?”

“Hehe, there’s no harm in telling Young Master Li. I believe Young Master Li knows about this item.”

Young Master Lin smiled when he heard Zhou Chen’s question.

“The thing I’m looking for is the white jade token. Young Master Li should have heard of it, right?”

He turned to look at Zhou Chen.
