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

Chapter 156 – A sword seal, capable of wiping out a whole family

Meng Fan returned to the Sword Pavilion and found Elder Lin on the second floor.

"Disciple, what brings you here?"

The sun was setting, and it was already evening. Meng Fan rarely came to see Elder Lin at this time of day; he usually visited in the morning.

Seeing Meng Fan at this hour, Elder Lin was somewhat surprised and knew that Meng Fan must have something important to discuss.

"Master, have you ever heard of the Sword Immortal of Alchemy?" Meng Fan asked as he approached Elder Lin.

Since he had agreed to accompany Ye Qingyu to the Sword Immortal of Alchemy's inheritance site, he naturally needed to prepare and learn more about this Sword Immortal, Ye Lingyun.

Meng Fan himself had never heard of the Sword Immortal of Alchemy, but he believed Elder Lin surely had.

"The Sword Immortal of Alchemy?" Elder Lin looked at Meng Fan with surprise. "He was a figure from seven or eight hundred years ago. In that era, he was the closest to becoming an immortal, just one step away from successfully crossing the tribulation and ascending."

"Why are you suddenly interested in him?"

Meng Fan did not hide anything and told Elder Lin everything Ye Qingyu had shared with him.

Upon hearing this, Elder Lin's face showed a hint of surprise.

"Ye Qingyu from the Alchemy Hall? I've heard of that girl. She's considered one of the chosen of this generation in the Shu Mountain Sword Sect. I didn't expect her to be a descendant of the Sword Immortal of Alchemy, and even more, I didn't expect you to get involved with her recently."

Meng Fan rolled his eyes and said helplessly, "Master, please don't be disrespectful. The word 'involved' is quite inappropriate!"

Whenever Meng Fan interacted with female disciples of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, Elder Lin would use the word 'involved' to describe it, which was simply tarnishing his reputation.

"Whether you're involved or not, only you know in your heart. But don't worry, as your master, I only concern myself with your cultivation, not your emotional affairs. Just make sure you don't get entangled in any romantic debts or disasters!" Elder Lin said with a chuckle.

Meng Fan gave a bitter smile and didn't bother to continue that topic.

"Master, do you think I should agree to Senior Sister Ye's request?" he asked, changing the subject.

"If it were someone else, I might advise against it, as too much can be overwhelming. After all, you have already mastered many exceptional sword techniques." Elder Lin looked at Meng Fan and paused before continuing, "But you're different. I know you're exploring the path of unifying ten thousand swords into one, which requires great courage and ability.

Even I dare not touch or imagine such a concept, so I can't guide you in that aspect. As for going to the Ye family, you can go without worry. With me backing you, even if you take all of the Sword Immortal of Alchemy's inheritance, the Ye family wouldn't dare to harm you!"

With Elder Lin's assurance, Meng Fan felt relieved, at least not having to worry about being backstabbed by the Ye family.

Although sometimes he found the rules of a large sect cumbersome, he had to admit that being a disciple of a major sect had its perks, like having a strong backing and fewer worries.

"Thank you, Master!" Meng Fan bowed to Elder Lin.

"Thank me for what? Isn't this why you came to see me?" Elder Lin said grumpily.

Meng Fan quickly defended, "Of course not. I wanted to learn more about the Sword Immortal of Alchemy to avoid being unprepared and falling into a disadvantage."

Elder Lin had indeed read records about the Sword Immortal of Alchemy.

At this moment, he naturally shared everything with Meng Fan.

"Disciple, the inheritance of the Sword Immortal of Alchemy is actually quite suitable for you.

Besides his profound alchemy skills, his most commendable ability was his sword formation technique.

Most sword cultivators use a single sword to fend off thousands of enemies.

But the Sword Immortal of Alchemy would wield dozens of flying swords at once, forming various sword formations to annihilate enemies, a truly unstoppable force!

I saw you use a sword technique against that general from the Great Dragon Empire, where numerous sword weapons from the Sword Pavilion flew out to kill the opponent.

If you obtain the Sword Immortal of Alchemy's sword formation inheritance, it will greatly enhance your sword techniques!"

Meng Fan nodded, as he had thought the same.

Seeing Elder Lin's support, he felt a sense of relief.

Elder Lin continued, "Moreover, if Ye Qingyu is willing to refine pills for you, it would be a rare opportunity, so you should seize it!"

Meng Fan naturally understood this. In fact, he was interested in Ye Qingyu's alchemy skills, which was why he agreed to accompany her to try out the sword formation at the Ye family.

"But when facing that sword formation, you must not force it. If you find it impossible, you must retreat in time and not act recklessly!" Elder Lin cautioned.

"Rest assured, Master, I understand," Meng Fan replied promptly.

Elder Lin nodded in satisfaction, then took out a sword seal from his storage ring and handed it to Meng Fan.

"I won't accompany you to the Ye family. It's not significant enough for me to go personally. This sword seal contains a strand of my Sword Qi. You just need to use the True Qi from the Pure Yang Thunder Cultivation Scripture to activate it. If the Ye family dares to act against you, you can use this Sword Qi to annihilate them!"

Meng Fan carefully accepted the sword seal, his expression serious.

This was a powerful weapon!

Although Elder Lin spoke lightly, Meng Fan knew it must have taken considerable effort to create it.

"Thank you, Master. Rest assured, I won't use this Sword Seal unless it's a critical moment!" Meng Fan said earnestly to Elder Lin.

Using this sword seal would mean annihilating the entire Ye family.

The word 'annihilation' was simple, just a few strokes, but it carried the weight of mountains of corpses and rivers of blood!

Meng Fan had experienced some hardships in this world and could kill without hesitation, but wiping out an entire family still felt too cruel.

Elder Lin said, "This sword seal is for your protection, not for killing, so you shouldn't feel pressured."

"I understand, Master," Meng Fan smiled. What pressure could he have?

After all, if he used the sword seal, it would be others who died.

And he would only use it if someone tried to kill him.

For those who wanted to kill him, he had no qualms about killing them in return.

Although Meng Fan had been apprenticed to Elder Lin for a long time, he didn't know Elder Lin's realm or strength.

But through this sword seal, he could glimpse a bit.

Just storing a strand of Sword Qi in the seal could have such terrifying power, showing Elder Lin's formidable strength!
