Land Sword Immortal: Eighty Years as the Guardian of the Sword Pavilion

Chapter 115 – Ordinary Sword, Spiritual Sword, Law Sword

Meng Fan and Senior Disciple Luo, after re-sheathing all the swords that lay on the ground, noticed Princess Yuqi still awkwardly standing in the same spot.

She was at a loss whether to stay or leave.

Elder Lin looked at Princess Yuqi and asked, "You are Yang Tianxu's daughter, aren't you?"

Princess Yuqi hurriedly replied, "Junior Yang Yuqi greets the Senior. Does the Senior know my imperial father?"

Elder Lin sighed, a look of reminiscence in his eyes.

Although he had previously expressed immense indignation to Meng Fan, the reality was that he obviously had a deep emotional connection with Princess Yuqi's father.

"We grew up together, wearing the same pair of trousers. How could I not know him?" Elder Lin said with a complex tone.

Meng Fan glanced at Elder Lin, thinking that his previous suspicions were confirmed.

That's why Elder Lin didn't show up when he was being attacked with a knife.

But when he was about to strike Princess Yuqi, Elder Lin appeared!

It seems I must have been picked up, not his real son...

Upon hearing Elder Lin's words, Princess Yuqi couldn't help but widen her eyes in surprise.

"This... my imperial father never told me he had an old friend in the Shu Mountain Sword Sect."

She was genuinely astonished. Logically, if she was coming to the Shu Mountain Sword Sect and her father had a good friend here, he should have instructed her!

Something's not right...

No wonder her father sent her to the Shu Mountain Sword Pavilion to Draw Sword. Perhaps he knew this old fellow was guarding the Sword Pavilion, which is why he sent her here.

Then the question remains, why didn't her father tell her directly?

"Your imperial father didn't tell you, perhaps because he no longer considers me a friend!" Elder Lin shook his head, his expression calming down.

"I heard you've come to the Shu Mountain Sword Sect to Draw Sword. Was it that old fellow Yang Tianxu who sent you?"

Princess Yuqi nodded, "Indeed, it was by my father's directive."

Elder Lin inquired, "What sword did he send you to seek?"

The Sword Pavilion of Shu Mountain collected countless famous swords from all over the world, so it was quite normal for anyone to come here to seek a sword.

"Snow Sea!" Princess Yuqi uttered two words.

When Elder Lin heard these words, his brows furrowed deeply.

Meng Fan, observing Elder Lin's expression, couldn't help but feel curious.

It was just a sword, why would it elicit such a complex reaction from Elder Lin?

It seemed this sword was no ordinary one!

Meng Fan had never heard of the "Snow Sea" sword and subconsciously glanced at Senior Disciple Luo.

Senior Disciple Luo met Meng Fan's gaze, understanding his intent, and shook his head.

Clearly, this sword was not on the first floor of the Sword Pavilion; otherwise, Senior Disciple Luo would have known.

As for the swords on the second floor and above, they were personally managed by Elder Lin.

Over eighty percent of the swords in the Sword Pavilion were on the first floor.

The swords on the second floor and above were few, but undoubtedly, each one was a masterpiece!

For example, Meng Fan had never set foot on the third floor of the Sword Pavilion, let alone the fourth or fifth floors.

Sometimes Meng Fan wondered why Elder Lin chose to reside on the second floor of the Sword Pavilion instead of the highest fifth floor?

Elder Lin, standing in front of Princess Yuqi, fell silent for a moment, then spoke with a tone of helplessness, "If only he had heeded my advice back then, things wouldn't have come to this."

His words were cryptic, and Princess Yuqi, not understanding, looked at Elder Lin with a bewildered expression.

"Senior, what do you mean by that?"

Elder Lin shook his head, not responding to Princess Yuqi, then turned to Meng Fan and said, "Come with me."

He led Meng Fan up the stairs of the Sword Pavilion.

Senior Disciple Luo glanced at Princess Yuqi and said with a hint of indifference, "Please wait here, Your Highness. Elder Lin is likely going to retrieve the sword."

Princess Yuqi nodded. Meng Fan's recent sword strike had already subdued her into meekness, so naturally, she had no complaints and was very obedient.

Meng Fan followed Elder Lin up the stairs and couldn't help but ask, "Master, what's so special about the Snow Sea sword that Princess Yuqi mentioned?"

The Sword Pavilion housed countless swords, many of which had unique properties, so it wasn't unusual.

Meng Fan was simply curious!

Elder Lin sighed and said nothing, continuing to lead Meng Fan up the staircase.

They passed the second floor of the Sword Pavilion without stopping and headed directly to the third floor.

Moments later, Meng Fan arrived at the third floor of the Sword Pavilion.

This was his first time stepping into the third floor, and he couldn't help but look around curiously.

Like the Scripture Pavilion, the Sword Pavilion was also a conical structure, with less space the higher one went.

The swords stored on the third floor of the Sword Pavilion were undoubtedly fewer than those on the second floor.

At a glance, Meng Fan noticed that each sword here was a rare treasure.

All the swords stored on the second floor were Spiritual Swords.

But on this third floor, they were all top-notch Spiritual Swords!

Even many of the swords, with just one glance, Meng Fan could feel that they were Law Swords.

Ordinary Swords, Spiritual Swords, Law Swords!

Law Swords, as the name suggests, were sword weapons of the treasure level, higher than Spiritual Swords.

Such sword weapons could harness the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth to bolster their attack power.

With a Spiritual Sword in hand, a cultivator could only infuse it with True Qi from within to increase its attack power.

But a Law Sword was not only bolstered by the cultivator's internal True Qi but also by the external Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth, which naturally increased its attack power exponentially, incomparable to before!

However, Law Swords were typically only manageable by cultivators who had reached the Condensing Elixir Realm.

Because cultivators at the Condensing Elixir Realm begin to transform the True Qi within their bodies into True Essence, a monumental change that made them much stronger than before.

Only then could they hope to wield a Law Sword!

If someone at the Heavenly Origin Realm wanted to use a Law Sword, they would not only be unable to control it but would also suffer backlash, leading to a grave without a burial place.

And Meng Fan had not even reached the Heavenly Origin Realm, so he had never considered using a Law Sword.

"Many Law Swords are on the third floor, which is why I never let you come up here. I know you like to handle swords, and I feared you wouldn't be able to resist touching a Law Sword and suffer backlash!" Elder Lin glanced at the many sword weapons on the third floor and said to Meng Fan.

Meng Fan often touched and cleaned various swords on the first floor of the Sword Pavilion, which Elder Lin was well aware of.

Although Meng Fan's strength was now astonishing, being in the True Martial Realm, he could overpower those in the Heavenly Origin Realm.

But this did not mean Meng Fan could handle a Law Sword!

It was a fundamental difference.

Meng Fan nodded and said, "Disciple understands."

He verbally acknowledged understanding, but if he were really allowed on the third floor, he might still be unable to resist touching a Law Sword.

So not letting him on the third floor was also for the best!

"The Snow Sea sword that little girl Yuqi mentioned is a Law Sword," Elder Lin continued.

Meng Fan listened intently, knowing Elder Lin must have more to say.

Because if it were just a Law Sword, it wouldn't have caused Elder Lin to show that expression.

So, this Law Sword must have some peculiarities!
