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

Chapter 270 – Thundering Demon Sword, Dragon Princess

Shu Changsheng glanced at Elder Lin, then at Meng Fan, and cautiously said, "Master, if you need this pendant, I can give it up."

Meng Fan rolled his eyes at Shu Changsheng and said helplessly, "Do you think I would take your things? I was just joking with your master. Don't take it to heart."

Turning back, he said to Elder Lin, "Master, Changsheng has just embarked on his cultivation journey and is struggling. As his grandmaster, shouldn't you support him with some Spirit Stones?"

He felt embarrassed to directly ask Elder Lin for Spirit Stones, but with Shu Changsheng around, it was different.

He had an excuse and a reason!

Elder Lin bit his back teeth upon hearing this.

How did he end up with such a vampire of a disciple?

With a stiff smile, he handed a top-grade Spirit Stone to Shu Changsheng.

After all, it was his first time as a grandmaster, and he couldn't give a cheap gift. A top-grade Spirit Stone was the least he could offer.

"Thank you, Master!" Meng Fan said with a smile.

Then he patted Shu Changsheng.

"Thank you, Grandmaster!" Shu Changsheng quickly thanked Elder Lin as well.

"Go rest now, Changsheng. From now on, come to my place every day at the Dragon Hour for an hour. I will guide you in your cultivation," Elder Lin said to Shu Changsheng.

This was the treatment Meng Fan used to receive, but not anymore.

Elder Lin had found that Meng Fan learned better on his own than under his guidance.

Why didn't he feel a sense of accomplishment?

That's the reason!

Meng Fan and Shu Changsheng walked down the stairs to the first floor.

As soon as they reached the bottom, Meng Fan took the Spirit Stone from Shu Changsheng's hand.

"Changsheng, you're still young. Keeping this Spirit Stone with you is of no use and might cause trouble. When you grow up and your cultivation level increases, I'll give it back to you," Meng Fan said seriously to Shu Changsheng, looking earnest.

"Yes, Master!" Shu Changsheng had no objections and felt that his master made sense.

Meng Fan nodded and smiled at Shu Changsheng.

Suddenly, he remembered how his parents used to confiscate his New Year's money when he was a child.

Indeed, every warrior who once vowed to fight the dragon eventually becomes the dragon!

"Junior Disciple Meng, who is this child?" Senior Disciple Luo asked in surprise when he saw Shu Changsheng and Meng Fan coming down from the second floor of the Sword Pavilion.

"Senior Brother Meng, where did this little brat come from?" Wu Tian also heard the commotion and couldn't help but ask curiously.

Thinking about how even that waste Luo could call Meng Fan Junior Disciple, while he had to call Meng Fan Senior Brother, Wu Tian felt very annoyed!

"This is my disciple, Shu Changsheng. I just took him to meet Elder Lin," Meng Fan said.

Senior Disciple Luo looked at Shu Changsheng with some envy and asked Meng Fan, "Did Elder Lin acknowledge him as his grand-disciple?"

Meng Fan smiled and said, "Of course."

Senior Disciple Luo was momentarily speechless with envy.

Wu Tian, on the other hand, pursed his lips and said, "Does a little brat like him deserve to enter the Sword Pavilion? When did the Sword Pavilion's standards drop so low? If I had known, I wouldn't have come here. Seriously..."

Before Wu Tian could finish, Elder Lin's cold voice came from upstairs.

"Wu Tian, get up here!"

Moments later, Wu Tian's wailing cries of pain echoed down.

When Wu Tian came downstairs with a bruised and swollen face, he couldn't help but glare viciously at Shu Changsheng.

"Pathetic, so petty that you can't even tolerate a child," Meng Fan glanced at Wu Tian.

"Just wait, I'll take on a disciple too, and have him beat up your disciple every day!" Wu Tian said through gritted teeth.

Unable to beat Meng Fan, he could only hope his disciple would beat Meng Fan's disciple.

This was his way of finding peace.

Meng Fan pursed his lips, "In a few years, my disciple will be able to beat you."

Wu Tian was furious, "You're dreaming!"

After Wu Tian returned to his room, Shu Changsheng cautiously said, "Master, Uncle Wu seems to dislike me?"

Meng Fan shook his head.

"No, you're overthinking it. He's just got a few screws loose.

If he dares to bully you, come find me, and I'll teach him a lesson.

If I'm not in the Sword Pavilion, go find your grandmaster.

Actually, finding your grandmaster is even better!"

***

Time flowed like water, in the blink of an eye, more than twenty days had passed.

Zhao Jin and Liu Yue'er had both mastered Sword Momentum, leaving only Liu Yanping as the difficult one.

With two thousand Spirit Stones in hand, Meng Fan's total Spirit Stones had once again surpassed seven thousand!

Well, a thousand of those belonged to Shu Changsheng?

Alright, that's not important.

The date for the duel between Elder Lin and his old rival was less than ten days away.

They would probably set off soon.

With a wealth of resources, Meng Fan couldn't resist splurging a bit.

He took out a thousand Spirit Stones and once again went to the Sword God Stele to meditate for a day and a night.

The progress of merging "Sword Comes" and "Annihilation of All Directions" into one sword had made a significant leap, though it was still a bit short of success.

However, with the help of the Sword God Stele, Meng Fan successfully merged "Thunderous Sword Technique" and "Seven Absolute Demon Swords" into one sword!

Previously, he had tried to merge these two sword techniques in the Sword Pavilion several times. Although he hadn't succeeded, he had made a good start.

This time, with the help of the Sword God Stele, merging the two techniques into one was almost effortless.

The new sword technique was named "Thunderous Demon Sword" by Meng Fan.

It was both righteous and evil, filled with a murderous aura.

To be honest, in terms of sheer power, this sword technique couldn't compare to "Heavenly Sword," "Myriad Swords Art," or "Free Wanderer's Godly Sword," those Heavenly Grade sword techniques.

But the success of this sword technique proved that Meng Fan's direction of Myriad Swords Returning to me was feasible!

One day, he would merge all his sword techniques into one.

When that day came, if he unleashed that one sword... it might open the gates of immortality.

Even the millions of Sword Immortals in the heavens would have to bow down!

After a day and a night, Meng Fan was awakened by Elder Hu of the Sword God Temple. He wanted to meditate at the Sword God Stele for another day and night.

His intuition told him that with one more day and night, he could merge "Sword Comes" and "Annihilation of All Directions" into one sword.

"Sword Comes"

"Annihilation of All Directions"

"Heaven and Earth Are Heartless"

These three moves were the foundation of Myriad Swords Returning to me.

If he could merge "Sword Comes" and "Annihilation of All Directions," it would be a qualitative breakthrough.

Meng Fan returned to the Sword Pavilion, planning to wash up and change clothes before heading back to the Sword God Temple for another day and night of meditation.

***

As soon as Meng Fan returned to the Sword Pavilion, he saw an unexpected visitor.

The visitor was a woman, someone Meng Fan barely knew but had some past interactions with.

Yang Yuqi!

Princess Yuqi of the Great Dragon Empire.

This young lady had once come to Shu Mountain seeking a sword and arrogantly provoked the Shu Mountain disciples, only to be humbled by Meng Fan.

But why had this princess come to Shu Mountain again?
