Hello, I am Jiang Li, the 37th-ranked sword cultivator of the Hidden Sword Peak. Due to recent financial constraints in my life, I have decided to write this script. By purchasing a copy, I, the esteemed sword cultivator, will teach you how to successfully charm those beautiful senior and junior sisters within a year. I will guide you on making the Iceberg Sword Immortal both love and hate me, and I will reveal the secrets to having the Grand Celestial Sect’s sect master treat me as their precious heart.

I am Jiang Li, a shameless sword cultivator.

The story begins with a time-travel to the Ming Dynasty, where the protagonist becomes the eldest son of Zhu Gaochi, the Prince of Han.

Furthermore, the [Multiverse Mall System] has been awakened, allowing users to obtain various rewards as long as they have enough points.

In the Battle of Arutai, Zhu Zhanqi directly exchanged for the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame. In the blink of an eye, countless karmic flames fell from the sky, annihilating 100,000 enemy troops and causing the Tatar tribe to tremble in fear, losing all thoughts of disobedience.

After this battle, Zhu Zhanqi, with the help of the system, led the Zhu family on the path of cultivation.

In order to accumulate enough points, which could be exchanged for cultivation resources, the Ming Dynasty's war machine was quickly set in motion. The Oirats submitted, the Tatars pledged allegiance, and all the surrounding foreign tribes became mere tools.

Several years later,

When the Ming Dynasty sent its army to conquer Europe, the soldiers, whose lowest level was Qi Refining and who were armed with howitzers and Gatling guns, were terrified and ran away in panic: "My lord, times have changed."

The Reticent Blade is, first and foremost, a wuxia novel, meaning that the world and its character’s powers and abilities are more grounded. Instead of cultivators who can soar through the heavens and shatter planets, you will find martial artists who can still perform superhuman feats but not so fantastical as to tear through space or achieve immortality.

The world of The Reticent Blade is one of medieval China, loosely based upon the time period of the Ming Dynasty. It is a time of chaos and strife, where war and death are rampant. We follow the intertwining story of several protagonists and antagonists as they navigate the chaotic times, unraveling the threads that connect the past, the present, and the future of the world.

The Reticent Blade is a story of heroism, love, revenge, and cruelty.

The Reticent Blade is a story of both the righteousness and vileness of the Jianghu.

Official Blurb:

Someone once asked me, "What is the jianghu?"

I thought for a moment, and what came to mind was…

A jug of unrefined wine on a weathered table,

A lone silhouette fading into the distance under the setting sun,

A nameless grave bathed in moonlight,

The smoldering incense in my grasp, its final wisps dissipating.

They then asked me, "Where is the jianghu?"

I smiled faintly and lifted my gaze beyond the window. Out there, beneath the vast heavens, countless jianghus lay.

A single soul carries his own story.

When two paths cross, a jianghu is born.

Dragons fight in the wild, their blood turning black and yellow.

Once upon a time, a whale fell, giving birth to all things and giving rise to this prosperous and wondrous world of Taoist magic.

Yue Hanzhang traveled through this world in spirit, gathering lonely souls and wild spirits, deducing profound methods, and ascending to the pinnacle of the extraordinary!

"One day, I will sweep away the evil and filth of this world, gather all the filth and blood, and transform it into the Xuanhuang Spiritual Chapter that proves the Dao!"

-----------------

When a whale falls, all things arise.

Dragons fight in the wild, their blood turning black and yellow.

Strange and unorthodox methods, containing the secrets of immortality.

A young genius has been unable to draw in Qi for eight years due to an abnormality in his Dantian.

"He is a waste."

"Trash!"

No matter how many times he faced cold stares and ridicule, he never gave up his ideal of repairing the chain.

Until the night I was kicked out of the house, my persistent efforts were rewarded!

The light from Dantian rises!

Yang Feng: "From today on, I will make sure that anyone who speaks rudely will die with my ultimate skill!!!"

When Chen Changqing opened his eyes, he found that he had traveled to the world of immortal cultivation.

...

Good news: He is a middle-grade spiritual genius, and he practices Qi at the age of eighteen!

Bad news: He and his colleagues were kidnapped by the toad spirit, and the other party sharpened his sword and was about to use them to sacrifice to the heavens!

At the critical moment of life and death, [God-level selection system] is activated.

[Select 1: Fight against the toad spirit! Reward: Top magic weapon Qinglei Sword (mortality rate 99%)]

[Choose 2: Resign to the toad spirit and kill colleagues and accept the letter of fame! Rewards: A secret treasure for breath retention, a dragon blood body quenching pill, and a nine-god soul-locking bead. 】

"Is this still necessary?"

...

then……

Others kill demons and he snatches fishing.

Others try to retreat,

Others pretend to be low-key...

...

Until one day, the demon saint was in a state of danger, the great power in the Great Yan Immortal Kingdom died and suffered heavy casualties during the tribulation period, and the Great Yan Immortal Kingdom was in danger.

Chen Changqing sighed and stood up from the retreating cave:

"I've been living for so long, and it's finally time for you to know..."

One hundred thousand years ago, the ancient gods were the masters of this star field. They were high above everyone else. In the star field ancient god world, they moved mountains and filled the sea, shattered the void, and dominated the life and death of everyone in a single thought...

One hundred thousand years later, Ye Qian accidentally traveled through time and unexpectedly obtained a mysterious purple-gold crown and received a shocking inheritance. From then on, he fought in the sky, broke through the ages, and swept across the gods.

[Awakening/Cultivation + Super Admin Bureau + Circuit Board Talisman + Mobile Phone Magic Item]

The world is undergoing dramatic changes, and spiritual energy is surging!

The rich secretly use their money to achieve immortality, while the poor like me are destined to be beaten.

Until the moment I was ganged up on, I used my family's breathing technique to awaken my spiritual energy.

Driven by my product manager's passion, I launched the "Lingxi" app.

The boxing brothers cracked a cement slab with a single punch, while the algorithm genius seemed to have foreseen the future!

The top student and school beauty conjured ice with a wave of her hand, while the hardware geek saw through the talisman's true nature: "Isn't this just an energy circuit board?"

The ancient family was furious, believing that the poor were not worthy of using spiritual energy.

The Super Management Bureau intervened and issued a warning, as the army from the Underworld pressed in.

When the genius of the aristocratic family unleashed the millennium-old talisman, I pulled out the mass-produced "Thunder Pro Max Edition".

The elder opposite sneered: "The number of ants is meaningless in front of a true dragon."

I calmly raised my phone and pushed the awakening algorithm to hundreds of millions of users with a single click!

"Senior, times have changed."

"Now, it is a vast ocean of ants that is judging the true dragon."

At the beginning, he slapped a mosquito to death. Who would have thought that it was the clone of the Mosquito Taoist? He was originally picking his feet in the city, and the next second he was dragged to the primitive world to face the Mosquito Taoist.

"…My blood is full of non-dairy creamer, Sudan red and melamine. I have high blood lipids, high blood sugar and high blood pressure. It's greasy and unpalatable!"

"You have to believe me! Taoist Mosquito!"

Xu Xian: "I can no longer be a gigolo who is a burden to my wife. I must be the king of gigolos who brings happiness to everyone."
