Chapter 220 – The true “Myriad Swords Returning to One
Meng Fan glanced around and noticed that Wu Tian wasn't in the Sword Pavilion.
Could he still be in the Sword God Temple?
Logically, that shouldn't be the case!
It's already been seven days. If Wu Tian has been comprehending the Sword God Stele this whole time, how many Spirit Stones would that cost?
Meng Fan did a quick calculation. It would be around eight thousand Spirit Stones.
That kid doesn't look like someone who has that kind of money!
With a hint of doubt on his face, Meng Fan found Senior Disciple Luo and asked, "Senior Disciple Luo, have you seen Wu Tian these past few days?"
Senior Disciple Luo shook his head and replied, "I haven't seen Wu Tian recently. I have no idea where that kid has run off to."
He wasn't particularly close to Wu Tian, and Wu Tian had always looked down on him, so he didn't bother trying to be friendly.
Even though his cultivation level was low, he still had his pride.
Even if it was just a little, it was still there!
Hearing this, Meng Fan left the Sword Pavilion and headed towards the Sword God Temple.
Although it seemed a bit strange, it was highly likely that Wu Tian was still in the Sword God Temple.
***
A moment later, Meng Fan arrived at the Sword God Temple.
Sure enough, Wu Tian was sitting cross-legged in front of the Sword God Stele, his hands pressed against the stone.
"Elder Hu, why is this guy still comprehending the Sword God Stele after so many days? Doesn't he need Spirit Stones?" Meng Fan asked Elder Hu Qingshi, the temple guardian, with some confusion.
Elder Hu was known for his fairness and strictness, never showing favoritism.
Previously, when Elder Lin intervened, he only got a slight discount, but the Spirit Stones still had to be paid.
Why was Wu Tian allowed to comprehend for so long this time?
Was Elder Hu impressed by his talent?
Did he want to nurture Wu Tian?
No, although Wu Tian had some talent in Sword Dao, he was still far behind Meng Fan.
Elder Hu didn't even nurture him, so how could he possibly nurture Wu Tian?
While Meng Fan was puzzled, Elder Hu spoke up, "That kid paid ten thousand Spirit Stones in one go, so he can naturally continue to comprehend. By my calculations, he still has a day and a night left!"
Ten thousand,
Spirit Stones!!!!!!
Meng Fan's eyes widened in shock, a wave of regret and frustration washing over him.
You can't judge a book by its cover...
People are not what they seem...
Wu Tian looked sloppy and poor, but who knew he was so wealthy behind the scenes.
Meng Fan truly hadn't expected this.
If he had known, he would have definitely coaxed all of Wu Tian's New Year's money out of him!
But...
Where did Wu Tian get ten thousand Spirit Stones from?
Meng Fan had previously gained a lot in the Demon Realm and obtained the treasure of a female fox demon, which he handed over to Elder Lin to sell, ultimately earning five thousand Spirit Stones.
That was already an extraordinary stroke of luck.
Yet Wu Tian had quietly produced ten thousand Spirit Stones.
Normally, someone willing to spend ten thousand Spirit Stones would have far more than that.
Thinking about this, Meng Fan couldn't help but feel a bit envious.
He even began to suspect that Wu Tian might be the legendary "Child of Destiny."
Watching Wu Tian seriously comprehend the Sword God Stele, Meng Fan felt a sudden impulse and took out a top-grade Spirit Stone, handing it to Hu Qingshi.
"Elder Hu, since this kid can continue to comprehend the Sword God Stele for another day and night, I'd like to do the same."
Meng Fan smiled shyly at Hu Qingshi.
Hu Qingshi frowned slightly. A top-grade Spirit Stone was equivalent to a thousand low-grade Spirit Stones. By calculation, it would only allow twenty hours of comprehension.
Meng Fan said a day and a night, which was twenty-four hours; the Spirit Stone wasn't enough!
But considering that Meng Fan had previously comprehended the Sword God Stele for ten days and nights and was Lin Bianyun's direct disciple...
With a bit of a soft spot for talent, Hu Qingshi accepted the top-grade Spirit Stone without saying anything.
He'd just give a small discount and add four more hours.
After all, last time Lin Bianyun brought this kid over, he had also given a discount.
Meng Fan sat cross-legged in front of the Sword God Stele, placing his hands on it.
It had been a long time since he last came to comprehend the Sword God Stele!
Given his current cultivation level, his Sword Dao foundation was already strong enough. He had planned to wait until he reached the Condensation Pill Realm before continuing to comprehend the Sword God Stele.
But seeing Wu Tian comprehending for so many days in one go, he couldn't resist!
Moreover, having cultivated his Divine Soul, he had taken a significant step forward.
Comprehending the Sword God Stele at this moment was perfectly reasonable.
Time spent comprehending the Sword God Stele passed like sleep, vanishing in the blink of an eye, almost imperceptible.
***
Until he felt someone tapping his shoulder, Meng Fan slowly opened his eyes.
"A day and a night, time's up!" It was Hu Qingshi calling him.
Meng Fan gave a bitter smile. As always, comprehending the Sword God Stele consumed a lot of Spirit Stones.
A day and a night felt like an instant.
But in that instant, Meng Fan had gained a lot.
He vaguely sensed that he could merge all the Sword Techniques he had learned into a single sword!
The three forms of Myriad Swords Returning to One:
[Sword Comes]
[Annihilation of All Directions]
[Heaven and Earth Are Heartless]
And many other supreme Sword Techniques.
[Heavenly Sword]
[Myriad Swords Art]
[Free Wanderer's Godly Sword]
[One Sword Opens the Azure Sky]
***
These top-tier Sword Techniques of the current era, Meng Fan felt he could fuse them into one sword!
If he could forge this sword, it would be the true "Myriad Swords Returning to One."
Once this sword was unleashed, even True Immortals would be astonished and perhaps even submit.
Unfortunately, just as Meng Fan was beginning to grasp the concept, his time was up.
Looking at the Sword God Stele before him, he wished he could take it home and sleep on it every day.
Then Meng Fan noticed Wu Tian beside him, who had also woken up, called by Hu Qingshi.
"Junior Disciple Meng, the place you brought me to is truly effective. In just ten days, I feel my Sword Dao foundation has more than doubled!"
Wu Tian was extremely excited, speaking to Meng Fan without any reservation.
But even if his Sword Dao foundation had doubled, it wasn't particularly impressive.
However, in Shu Mountain, Wu Tian was indeed the only one besides Meng Fan who had comprehended the Sword God Stele for ten days and nights in one go.
This level of Sword Dao talent was indeed remarkable!
If Wu Tian hadn't joined the Vajra Temple back then and had instead become a disciple of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, his achievements would have been even more astounding.
Meng Fan looked at Wu Tian and said, "As long as it works, so you won't say I tricked you. But where did you get so many Spirit Stones? You pulled out ten thousand in one go; I almost thought you were a big shot in the Primordial Spirit Realm."
Wu Tian touched his shiny bald head, looking a bit helpless.
"That ten thousand Spirit Stones was all I had, and I gave it all to this Elder. By the way, Junior Disciple Meng, I want to continue comprehending the Sword God Stele. Can you lend me some Spirit Stones?"
Only ten thousand Spirit Stones, and he spent it all?
Meng Fan had thought Wu Tian, being able to pull out ten thousand Spirit Stones, would have at least forty or fifty thousand more.
But considering Wu Tian's usual behavior, it wasn't entirely incomprehensible!
"But even ten thousand Spirit Stones is an astronomical figure. Where did you get it from?"
