Video - UN: peerless cucumber

[softheartedshizun]

[ Shen Qingqiu was glad in his 'event garb' and holding a fan that wasn't quite what he wanted, but beggars can't be choosers.

Still, despite everything being an aesthetic he wasn't that into, he managed to carry the aloof scholar image through it. Alas, it wasn't the best radical revolutionary impression he should be giving at the moment. But that was fine, this was for other concerns. ]

A quick question, before time goes by too much, is there anyone that... has a high amount of internal spiritual power, and... could theoretically push it through another? If you or anyone you know can do this, please respond.

[ He paused a moment as if another concern occurred to him. ]

A doctor or medical professional would also be appreciated.

No urgencies.

...

But more than a week will be an issue.

My sword was not with this body, so when I arrived here I only had what was on this person.

[ Luo Binghe no doubt had his sword with him, and might be frantically looking.... But that was another world and there was nothing to be done about it. ]

[wooden_one]

[That's unfortunate. He was sort of hoping to find someone new to spar...not that he would spar with Huaisha anyway, so they were sort of in the same boat.]

Are there no blacksmiths in this place?

[softheartedshizun]

That can make a spiritual sword? I have yet to ask, but I am doubtful.

[ He might as well just use the fan once his meridians were clear than some sort of broadsword or rapier. ]

[wooden_one]

A spiritual sword? Like a divine weapon?

[He's a little confused here.]

[softheartedshizun]

Divine seems a bit more.... This is a sword that has qi and is linked to the user. Sure you can always find substitute or rental ones for basic use, but there is something special about your personal sword, that chooses you, and grows with you.

[wooden_one]

That sounds like a divine weapon that could be found from Jincheng Lake.

[He sounds grumpy but there's noticeable interest in his eyes. This sort of weapon...if he could find something like it for Xue Meng...]

Though those are not usually available for...renting. [He sounds a little unsure about, what? Rental swords? Weird.]

[softheartedshizun]

It's not anything so mysterious and magical. They're simply pulled out of the mountain at Wan Jian Peak, where the best smiths cultivate and reside....

[ Though it is kind of curious they just make swords all the time and randomly and stick, them in the mountain till someone can pull it out. Maybe there was something more to it?

Ha ha ha! Airplane definitely didn't think too hard and just thought it seemed cool. ]

[wooden_one]

What makes those swords special? Are they weapons that can only be found at this Wan Jian Peak?

[For the first time he's starting to actually doesn't seem to be mad. Weapons are a topic he could talk about at any time and any day...but more importantly, he's still looking for something for Xue Meng.

But it's not like his expression is overtly excited but there's definitely something like anticipation in his eyes.]

[softheartedshizun]

They are definitely weapons that can only be found there, and can only be weirded by members of Cang Qiong Mountain sect. Deciples who are ready for a proper sword of their own go there to find their personal sword. The one right for then they will be able to pull out easily.

[ Shen Qingqiu wasn't particularly more animated, but there was a bit of a hint of someone talking about a favored subject. Not because he particularly cared about weapons, but because he was sharing Lore. ]

[wooden_one]

[That's unfortunately.]

Then, you are from Cang Qiong Mountain sect, I assume?

[softheartedshizun]

Yes, this master is head of Qing Jing Peak there.

[wooden_one]

I have never heard of a Cang Qiong Mountains sect.

[But there's interest in his eyes, like he'd jsut found a new possible sparring partner.]

[softheartedshizun]

That's a given, since we are all from different worlds.

[wooden_one]

Then can I assume you haven't heard of SiSheng Peak as well?

[The Life and Death Peak...what an auspicious name.]

[softheartedshizun]

I can't say that I have.

[ What a cursed name!? Who came up with that? Is your sect OK? Do they need an intervention? Is this trying to be edgy? Are you just doomed to some tragedy? Its like asking for a bad end! ]

[wooden_one]

[All the buildings are names after places in the Netherworld. Their sect leader has a very interesting naming sense.]

Then, is there a sect operating in the lower cultivation realm where you're from?

[softheartedshizun]

Lower cultuvation realm?

[ Give him a break! That could mean almost everything if he doesn't know your world's personal systems! ]

All known sects are no doubt of the lower realms as no one has ascended to the heavens in anyone's memory, and the heavens have cut themselves off for a long time already. There is no communication between, so everything would be a lower realm.

1/2

[wooden_one]

He has a mildly confused frown that indicates that, no, that isn't what he meant.

It only takes him a moment to realize why the mistake was made though and he smooths his expression back into something more neutral.]

2/2

[wooden_one]

...the lower cultivation realm is situated closer to the border between this world and the netherworld and, in general, they are more poor than those who live in the upper cultivation realm. That area is also where all the major sects are based. [Because money and safety.

He explains it as if he didn't hear the mistake earlier at all. Just explaining what he probably should have explained earlier!]

[softheartedshizun]

[ Ah! It was that sort of set up. ]

The world this one resided in had no such setup. There is the human world, and the demonic world, and an abyss between. There are places where the border is thin and one can travel back and forth, but that is about it. Demons have different cultivation. The human world has four major cultivation sects, though many many smaller ones. Cang Qiong Mountain is one of the four.

[wooden_one]

I see. Where I'm from, the demon realm like the realm of the gods are more or less cut off from the human realm. Those from TianYin Pavilion and TaoHua Yuan are said to have descended from gods and the Butterfly Bone Demons were said to have been exiled from the demon realm, but there's no way to move between the realms.

[Except, perhaps, by extreme means.

Still...]

You're strong then.

[He's intrigued like someone who's very competetive who just found a possible new person to fight.]

[softheartedshizun]

[ He wasn't sure how he felt about that ascertain. Though he wouldn't argue, he wasn't week by any means, even without his sword. But somehow... he felt like he had opened some sort of door that had been partially closed. ]

Different, but not too different.

[ So many different world mechanics out there. He wanted to experience those other worlds again. ]

This master is a master, it would be shameful not to have some strength.

[wooden_one]

Then, we should spar sometime.

[There's definitely a glint in his eyes. Did he just find a new opponent? So few people were willing to spar him!]

[softheartedshizun]

[ Was this another fighting maniac? ]

This one would be glad, though, a sword is still required, and would warn that as specialized scholar my martial combat may not be equal.

[wooden_one]

[He is another fighting maniac who also happens to be interested in poetry.]

We can spar open-handed. [He's not actually that picky.] Naturally, it is a way to exchange pointers. If it is not your specialty then afterwards we can also compete in something that is more advantageous for you.
