After becoming a main elder, Li Fuchen obtained an elder token.
This token was actually a heaven class high-tier cardinal artifact. After dropping oneâs blood to claim possession, no one else could use it.
Apart from that, the elder token still had multiple functions like defense, communication, alert, information storage, calming the mind, and many others. Once a holder of an elder token perished, the other holders would immediately sense it. It would allow the other main elders to be prepared in advance and wouldnât be in the dark, allowing the enemies to take advantage.
âLi Fuchen, now that you are a main elder of the Swordsmen Guild, you will need to take on the responsibility to defend the guild. You are no longer the carefree swordsman in the past. You need to understand that.â The Mystic Deep Sword Saint gave a reminder after returning to the Saint Spirit Continent.
Li Fuchen nodded, âUnderstood.â
To be a main elder, there were naturally some restrictions. For example, when the guild was in trouble or having difficulties, he would need to help out. In short, if he was required to make a move, he must not refuse as it was his responsibility.
Of course, the Swordsmen Guild rarely had trouble as no one would be so foolish to offend the Swordsmen Guild.
âNow that you have responsibilities, you naturally have privileges too.â The Mystic Deep Sword Saint smiled and said, âAs a main elder, as long as you have enough guild points, you can read through any manuals in the Swordsmen Guild. It includes our Swordsmen Guildâs first guild masterâs sword art, the Unbounded Doyenâs Unbounded Sword Art. Apart from that, you can also redeem extreme dao cardinal artifacts and extreme dao equipment. In short, with enough guild points, the Swordsmen Guild is completely open to you.â
âUnbounded Sword Art huh?â
Li Fuchen was rather curious. The Unbounded Doyenâs Unbounded Sword Art was also an extremity sword art, but it was one strongest sword art of the era. There were only a few sword arts that were stronger than it.
However, Li Fuchen could imagine the shocking amount of guild points needed to read the Unbounded Sword Art. His 10 million guild points would be the same as pouring a cup of water to put out a cart of fire. It wasnât worth mentioning.
Knowing from the Mystic Deep Sword Saint, Li Fuchen knew that main elders had all sorts of privileges and also methods to earn guild points.
To earn guild points, apart from doing missions, one could also do a trade with the Swordsmen Guild.
Trading a heaven class high-tier weapon would give 1 million guild points. A heaven class high-tier armor would be 2 million guild points. A heaven class high-tier cardinal artifact would be given 3 million guild points.
If it was an extreme dao weapon, that would truly be valuable and could trade for 500 million guild points. An extreme dao armor could trade for 1 billion guild points, while extreme dao cardinal artifact would be worth 20 billion guild points.
Apart from artifacts, martial arts could also be traded for guild points.
The price range for heaven class high-tier martial arts would be from 100 thousand to 1 million guild points.
The price range for heaven class high-tier cultivation techniques would be from 1 million guild points to 10 million guild points.
As for extremity martial arts, which were also heaven class low-tier martial arts, they could be traded for at least 100 million guild points and there wasnât an upper limit.
An extremity cultivation technique would be worth at least 1 billion guild points, without any upper limits.
âIt also means that if I am willing, I can obtain a few hundred million guild points at any time.â
The Splendor Sword Art and Primary Extreme Sword Art were incomplete extremity sword arts, but they contained a great amount of sword dao. Li Fuchen reckoned that the splendor sword dao and the primary extreme sword dao wouldnât have a low value.
Li Fuchen arrived and entered the Swordsmen Guild headquartersâ library pavilion.
âDivine Rainbow Sword Art, each read would need 200 thousand guild points. It can be borrowed for 100 million guild points per year.â
âDragon Soar Sword Art, each read would need 300 thousand guild points. It can be borrowed for 150 million guild points per year.â
âYin Yang Clear Breeze Sword Art, each read would need 500 thousand guild points. It can be borrowed for 250 million guild points per year.â
âSkyless Sword Tiger Art, each read would need 1 million guild points. It can be borrowed for 500 million guild points per year.â
âStar Orbit Sword Art, each read would need 1.2 million guild points. It can be borrowed for 600 million guild points per year.â
âMystic Deep Sword Art, each read would need 3 million guild points. It can be borrowed for 1.5 billion guild points per year.â
Inside the library pavilion, there was a spread of manuals made with special materials. Li Fuchen simply ignored the heaven class high-tier manuals and headed straight for the extremity manuals.
âI didnât expect the Mystic Deep Sword Saintâs sword art to also be in here. I wonder how many guild points the Mystic Deep Sword Saint obtained for the trade.â
It cost 1.5 billion guild points to borrow for a year. Li Fuchen guessed that this sword art would bring in at least 3 billion guild points for the trade. It might possibly be 5 billion guild points too.
âIt is too expensive to read it once for 3 million guild points. I better read the Divine Rainbow Sword Art first.â
Li Fuchen only had a total of 10 million guild points and it was only enough for him to read the Mystic Deep Sword Art for three times. As for the supreme rate sword art, the Unbounded Sword Art, Li Fuchen couldnât even afford to read it once.
Arriving in front of the Divine Rainbow Sword Artâs manual, Li Fuchen put his elder token there.
Immediately after, the elder token had 200 thousand guild points deducted from the 10 million guild points.
The moment Li Fuchen flipped to the first page of the Divine Rainbow Sword Artâs manual, he felt as though the sky was changing. There was a divine rainbow that flew over from the depths of the universe. The prowess and speed were truly indescribable.
âDivine Rainbow Sword Art first move: Beyond Sky Divine Rainbow!â
After flipping to the second page, there was an even more dazzling divine rainbow that penetrated the stars.
âDivine Rainbow Sword Art second move: Divine Rainbow Piercing Sun
When flipping to the third page, the divine rainbow exploded and burst out countless spots of light that covered the starry sky.
âDivine Rainbow Sword Art third move: Divine Rainbow Light Rain!â
â¦
âThe Divine Rainbow Sword Art is amazing.â Li Fuchen was gasping with surprise.
Li Fuchen thought his Splendor Sword Art should be worth quite a bit as it contained the top rate sword dao, splendor sword dao. But now, Li Fuchen knew he was wrong.
The Divine Rainbow Sword Art wasnât a top rate extremity sword art. It wasnât even considered a first rate extremity sword art, but the sword intent was very complete and it had a hint of the true essence of the universe.
When looking back at his own Splendor Sword Art which only had the first move. It didnât have a complete sword intent and it didnât contain the true essence of the universe.
If he was to trade it into guild points, he would only be able to obtain 10 or 20 million guild points, nothing more.
âThe first read through is a little fuzzy. I better read a few more times.â
When Li Fuchen opened up the Divine Rainbow Sword Artâs manual again, his elder token was deducted with another 200 thousand guild points.
Two times, three times, ten timesâ¦
Unknowingly, Li Fuchen had already flipped through the Divine Rainbow Sword Art twelve times. He had used up 2.4 million guild points.
He might not have learned the Divine Rainbow Sword Art, but it was similar to the Splendor Sword Art. With it as a reference, Li Fuchenâs mind had some inspiration for the Splendor Sword Artâs second move. The second move now had a fledgling form and was slowly emerging.
Huff!
After letting out a forceful breath, Li Fuchen said to himself, âIf I wish to learn the Divine Rainbow Sword Art, I will probably have to read it more than 100 times. That will be at least 20 million guild points, but it isnât necessary.â
Li Fuchenâs perception was absolutely stunning. The others would never be able to learn the Divine Rainbow Sword Art after borrowing it for a year. Li Fuchen was confident that he didnât need such a long time. It also meant that he didnât need to borrow it for one year and could learn it. It would save a lot of guild points.
Of course, Li Fuchen didnât think of learning the Divine Rainbow Sword Art. His objective was to use it as a reference.
Sealing up the inspiration, Li Fuchen headed deeper into the library pavilion. He wanted to see the legendary Unbounded Sword Art and how much it would cost to read it once.
Soon enough, Li Fuchen arrived at the deepest part of the library pavilion. There were layers of arrays here and countless restrictions. Without the elder token, Li Fuchen believed he would be crushed into dust by the array power and restriction power.
In the deepest part, there were only a few racks. Each rack had one manual.
Standing in front of one of the racks, Li Fuchen looked up.
There was a manual there and the big gray words, âUnbounded Sword Artâ was clear in Li Fuchenâs eyes.
âUnbounded Sword Art, each read would need 200 million guild points. It can be borrowed for 100 billion guild points per year.â
Ss!
After reading the introduction to the Unbounded Sword Art, Li Fuchen took a deep cold breath. Each read would cost 200 million guild points and borrowing it for one year would cost 100 billion guild points. It was truly exaggerated and even if Li Fuchen had ten times of his current guild points, he still wouldnât have enough to read the manual once.
âBut as a supreme rate sword art, the Unbounded Sword Art is really worth the price.â
Li Fuchen lamented. It was said that there was only one supreme rate sword art in the entire Deep Blue Plane. Li Fuchenâs Primary Extreme Sword Art might contain a trace of supreme rate sword art, but to become a true supreme rate sword art, he was still very far away.
