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

Chapter 238 – Crazy ideas, going against the norm!

Returning to the Sword Pavilion, Meng Fan noticed the door was still open, clearly left that way by Senior Disciple Luo for his sake.

Meng Fan closed the main door and then returned to his room.

The day had been fulfilling, but for Meng Fan, it felt somewhat like a waste of time.

After all, instructing others in sword techniques had delayed his own cultivation.

He couldn't gain any new insights from these lower-level sword techniques.

If it weren't for the Spirit Stones, he wouldn't have wasted his time on this.

"Senior Brother Meng, are you back?" Meng Fan suddenly heard a voice calling from outside his room.

It was that kid Wu Tian.

Just as Meng Fan was about to start cultivating, he reluctantly opened the door and asked Wu Tian, "What's up?"

Wu Tian grinned and said, "Senior Brother Meng, I just comprehended a new sword technique and wanted to spar with you."

Bang! Meng Fan slammed the door shut.

"No time!"

Sparring? He had spent the whole day instructing others and finally had some time to cultivate; he wasn't about to waste it sparring with Wu Tian.

Besides, although Wu Tian's sword technique was considered decent among the Shu Mountain disciples, compared to Meng Fan, it was far inferior.

Sparring with Wu Tian wouldn't teach Meng Fan anything new.

It would be pure bullying, and there was no point in that.

"Disciple, go spar with him. That kid came up with an interesting sword move this afternoon. It wouldn't hurt to take a look."

At that moment, Elder Lin's voice echoed in Meng Fan's mind.

Hearing this, Meng Fan was a bit surprised.

Elder Lin's words clearly praised Wu Tian.

Moreover, Elder Lin thought it was necessary for Meng Fan to witness Wu Tian's new sword move.

This was intriguing!

Elder Lin wouldn't say this without reason. It seemed Wu Tian had indeed come up with something special.

"Let's go!" Meng Fan opened the door and said to Wu Tian.

Wu Tian looked slightly surprised. He had just been coldly rejected, and now Meng Fan had changed his mind in an instant?

Meng Fan was indeed unpredictable!

***

Moments later, Wu Tian and Meng Fan arrived at the open space outside the Sword Pavilion.

"Senior Brother Meng, I won't hold back. Watch closely, I'm going to make my move!" Wu Tian drew his long sword from his waist and said straightforwardly, without any hesitation.

He knew his sword technique was inferior to Meng Fan's, so there was no need for modesty at this moment.

A sword light blossomed under the moonlit night.

The sword light was clear and extremely bright, but within its brightness, there was a faint hint of crimson.

Meng Fan's eyebrows slightly furrowed. From Wu Tian's sword move, he sensed a trace of... demonic nature.

Another person might not have sensed it so clearly.

But Meng Fan had once practiced the Seven Absolute Demon Swords and the Eternal Night Sword Technique.

The Seven Absolute Demon Swords was a demonic sword technique.

The Eternal Night Sword Technique was even more so a sword technique of the Demon Realm, only driven by demonic energy!

Meng Fan rarely used these two sword techniques, almost never in actual combat.

Because demonic swords were ultimately not of the Righteous Path and carried the risk of going astray.

Moreover, these two sword techniques were not considered top-tier among Meng Fan's repertoire, so he was naturally reluctant to use them.

If the True Scripture of Scarlet Blood was cultivated to the Condensation Pill Realm, forming demonic essence, it could match these two sword techniques and unleash special divine power.

But for now, the power of these two sword techniques was somewhat lacking in Meng Fan's hands.

To be precise, the power of these two sword techniques didn't even rank in the top ten of Meng Fan's learned sword techniques!

How did this kid Wu Tian come into contact with demonic sword techniques? Meng Fan's brows furrowed as this strange question popped into his mind.

Facing this sword move, he unhurriedly summoned the Hong Qi Sword.

The Hong Qi Sword was now a genuine Law Sword, and using it to spar with Wu Tian was, to be honest, a bit unfair.

But Meng Fan didn't care; after all, he wasn't the one being bullied!

The Hong Qi Sword slashed through the air.

Eternal Night Sword Technique!

Meng Fan activated the True Scripture of Scarlet Blood within him, a wisp of demonic energy ready to be unleashed, but he quickly dispersed it.

This was the Shu Mountain Sword Sect; using demonic energy openly would be excessive and could lead to trouble.

So he promptly dispersed the demonic energy, replacing it with Pure Yang Thunder True Qi, and slashed down.

The Eternal Night Sword Technique combined with Pure Yang Thunder True Qi felt somewhat incongruous.

But Meng Fan's sword still completely suppressed Wu Tian, crushing him!

In terms of swordsmanship, the gap between Wu Tian and Meng Fan was still vast!

Wu Tian's sword fell into a disadvantage, leaving him somewhat dejected, standing there seemingly in a daze.

But moments later, his eyes suddenly lit up. He looked at Meng Fan excitedly and shouted, "Senior Brother Meng, you're amazing! You managed to combine both righteous and demonic paths in that strike.

I had been thinking that my sword move had flaws and wasn't perfect, but I couldn't pinpoint the weaknesses.

I never expected you to find the flaw with just one glance. You're incredible!

Senior Brother Meng, I used to be unconvinced by you, but now I'm truly convinced. You're too awesome!!"

Wu Tian shouted as he ran back to the Sword Pavilion, leaving Meng Fan standing there bewildered.

What did I do?

I didn't do anything!

What's with Wu Tian, suddenly showering me with praise?

This is absurd...

Meng Fan shook his head with a wry smile and then returned to his room in the Sword Pavilion.

"Just now, Wu Tian's sword move clearly had demonic nature, and it also bore traces of the Ice Heart Sword Scriptures. The pure and tranquil Ice Heart Sword Scriptures were turned into a demonic sword technique by him!

Elder Lin wanted me to see Wu Tian's sword technique because of this."

Meng Fan muttered to himself, recalling Wu Tian's sword move and finding some unique and wondrous aspects to it.

A proper sword technique could be turned into a demonic sword.

So, could a demonic sword also be turned into a righteous sword technique?

Between the righteous and demonic paths... perhaps the line wasn't so clear-cut!

Meng Fan had a vague realization, connecting it to the Primordial Great Way of the Sword, which embraced all things.

And his own creation, Myriad Swords Returning to One.

Perhaps, whether righteous or demonic, all paths could ultimately converge.

Meng Fan had this thought: whether righteous, demonic, or even the paths of monsters, ghosts, and immortals, they were all forms of energy.

Primordial.

Everything returns to the primordial!

Meng Fan vaguely felt he had found the direction for his future path.

He suddenly felt that his Myriad Swords Returning to One was still too limited in scope.

He even thought that not only could myriad swords return to one, but myriad techniques could also return to one.

He couldn't help but wonder if the Spirit Wind Profound Art, Pure Yang Thunder Cultivation Scripture, and True Scripture of Scarlet Blood could also be fused into one?

If Spiritual Wind True Qi, Pure Yang Thunder True Qi, and Scarlet Demonic Qi were fused into one form of True Qi...

It seemed somewhat... Rebellious!
