Chapter 258 Destiny
Chapter 258 Destiny
He knew that with the ancient sword given by Xiaolu, his strength had been greatly improved. Now, he had more confidence to face the challenges outside. He walked out of the mountain temple quietly, looking at the bright moonlight, his heart filled with firm faith.
At this time, he took out a sword and slowly pulled it out. This sword looked very ordinary and inconspicuous, so he didn't worry about arousing suspicion when he took it out.
Lin Kunlun took the sword and walked to a larch tree. He pulled the sword out of the scabbard. The surface of the sword was not smooth like those made by famous masters, but rather dark and dull.
Lin Kunlun knew that what Xiaolu gave him was definitely not a replica. He knew it from the soft armor he had given him. He turned his arm and gently chopped the pine tree with the sword in his hand.
He didn't actually use any strength. After all, everyone was resting now, and he didn't want to wake them up. But what he didn't expect was that the sword chopped into the tree as easily as cutting into tofu. This tree, which was so big that a man could hug it, was chopped down by him so easily. If Lin Kunlun hadn't reacted quickly and jumped away, he might have been hit by the branch.
Lin Kunlun was a little shocked. You know, the trunk of this tree is at least half a meter thick. Even with a saw, it is impossible to cut it so easily. However, this sword did not leave any traces of damage when it cut the pine tree, not even a single bump, it was perfect. Lin Kunlun couldn't help but secretly wonder what material it was made of?
The loud noise woke up the soldiers around. The soldiers were not sleeping well, and when they heard the loud noise, they opened their eyes and stood up with their weapons. The soldiers who were on sentry duty also ran over. They saw an incredible scene, that the huge pine tree had fallen down. Lin Kunlun was standing there in a daze with his sword. Although they couldn't believe it, they all guessed that the tree was Lin Kunlun's masterpiece.
"How is this going!"
"Marshal Lin is so powerful that he cut down the tree with just one sword!" In the eyes of everyone, no matter how good the sword in his hand was, it was impossible to cut down such a thick tree with one stroke.
Tie Feng, Mu Feng, and Lin Er also rushed over at this time. They saw Lin Kun putting his sword back into the scabbard, and they couldn't help but run over to see what was going on.
"What exactly happened to Marshal Lin?" Tie Feng asked worriedly.
"I just accidentally found this sword behind the altar of the mountain temple! I wanted to try out whether the sword is sharp or not! I didn't expect that the sword is so sharp that it can cut down such a thick tree with just one stroke!" Lin Kunlun had to think of the origin of this sword at this time.
"You really used this sword to chop down this tree just now!" Mo Feng had already looked at the cut of the tree. The whole tree was cut very smoothly. It didn't look like it was chopped down with an axe or something. Of course, if it was chopped down with an axe, they would have been awakened long ago.
"That's true! If you don't believe me, you can try it!" Lin Kunlun drew out his sword again and slashed the remaining stump with his sword! Tie Feng and his men were veterans in the battlefield. They knew that Lin Kunlun didn't use much strength in this move. They thought that Lin Kunlun's move at most cut a little bit of the skin. But soon they saw a shocking scene. They saw that the sword directly cut into the stump like cutting tofu. The stump was cut off again.
"Wow!" Everyone around exclaimed in amazement. The sharpness of the sword was beyond their imagination. Even the experienced Tie Feng and Mu Feng showed shocked expressions.
"This sword is probably the legendary magic weapon!" Mu Feng muttered to himself.
Lin Kunlun's heart was also in turmoil. He didn't expect that the sword Xiaolu gave him would be so magical. He remembered that Xiaolu said that this sword had an unusual origin, and it seemed to be true.
"Lin Shuai, where did you get this sword?" Tie Feng asked curiously. He knew that Lin Kunlun would not have such a magical weapon for no reason, and there must be an unknown story behind it.
Lin Kunlun hesitated for a moment. He didn't want to reveal too much about Xiaolu, so he said, "I found this sword by chance in the mountain temple. It might be a relic left by a senior."
Tie Feng and Mu Feng looked at each other. They knew that Lin Kunlun had not told the whole story, but they did not ask any more questions. After all, everyone has their own secrets.
"Okay, since this sword is so sharp, let's use it to deal with the next challenge!" Lin Kunlun raised his arm and everyone's morale was boosted.
"This is truly a gift from the mountain god to Commander Lin! Commander Lin is indeed destined to be the one! He can get the help of the mountain god wherever he goes!" Mu Feng announced loudly to the soldiers who had gathered around to avoid being surprised.
Since the last time Lin Kunlun found a source of water on that mountain, the soldiers were already very surprised. Now he found such a powerful sword. Could it be that Lin Kunlun was really destined to be here?
"Marshal Lin is really destined to be the leader! Think about it, if it wasn't for Marshal Lin, would he have been able to find water on the mountain last time? As long as we follow Marshal Lin, we will be able to overthrow this corrupt Dakun Dynasty and establish a new dynasty where everyone can have food to eat!" Mu Feng was loudly promoting at this time. Since this unit had been chased and beaten by officers and soldiers, the morale had reached a freezing point. He did this at this time, undoubtedly to boost the morale of this unit. You know, this method was the most commonly used in the ancient army. After all, most of these people were farmers who had just put down their hoes. They couldn't read a single word. Seeing such a magical phenomenon, how could they not believe it?
"Brothers! I know that everyone has been very hard during this period! But everyone should know that what we are doing is a just thing! It is something that will make your descendants feel honored? The rotten Dakun Dynasty is just like this tree. The inside is completely fuzzy. We can completely knock it down with just a light blow!" Lin Kunlun took the opportunity to stand under a big tree, and chopped down a big tree next to him that looked rotten. This tree was bigger and thicker than the previous one. However, all the leaves on it had fallen off. This time Lin Kunlun increased his strength. As he expected, the tree fell to the ground the moment his sword chopped it.
"Marshal Lin is mighty! Marshal Lin is destined to be the emperor!" No one knew who started it, but everyone followed suit. This didn't look like a rebel army being chased by soldiers. Instead, it looked like a high-spirited imperial army preparing to go to war.
This made Lin Kunlun deeply understand why Chen Sheng and Wu Guang used various methods to imitate the sound of foxes when they started the uprising. Why did Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang, fabricate the rumor of killing a white snake to start the uprising. All of this stems from the level of cultural education in this world.
