Chapter 803: Chapter 802: The Sword Knows Not of Justice or Evil Chapter 803: Chapter 802: The Sword Knows Not of Justice or Evil When Xu Fan begins to upgrade the sword later, the commotion will be quite significant.

If the Sword Heaven Sect does not wish to be wiped out, then they have no choice but to cooperate with him.

Moreover, this is a win-win choice.

Unless the Sect is out of its mind, it would be impossible not to agree.

The Grand Elder expressed his concerns, “Mr.

Xu, may I ask if your sword, after absorbing this evil energy, might turn into a Magic Sword?”

Xu Fan smiled and shook his head, his tone leaving no room for doubt, “A sword holds no intrinsic good or evil; it depends on the person who wields it.”

The Grand Elder, thus rebuffed, found himself at a loss for a comeback.

Shen Yisen lifted his head and looked at Xu Fan with a complex expression.

After hesitating for a moment, he stood up and nodded, “What you say makes sense, Xu Fan.

We’ll entrust this matter to you!”

Xu Fan smiled and nodded, “Hmm, it’s a pleasure to cooperate.”

At this point, Shen Yisen, feeling as if a burden had been lifted, replied, “A pleasure indeed!”

After making the decision, Shen Yisen let out a great sigh of relief.

The issue with the Sword Tomb had left him hardly able to catch his breath these past few days.

Now that he could finally resolve it properly, otherwise, if the Sword Heaven Sect were truly destroyed under his watch, how would he face the ancestors of the Sect who had passed on to the immortals?

“Young friend Xu Fan, I will take you to the Sword Tomb.”

“Alright.”

Shen Yisen was a man of action.

He immediately stood up and took Xu Fan to the Sword Tomb, with the others following them.

Of the Sword Heaven Sect’s seven seals, the most tightly guarded is not the Scripture Pavilion, nor the Refinement Room, but Burial Sword Peak.

From the base of the mountain to its peak, guards are stationed openly and covertly everywhere.

Burial Sword Peak, located to the west of Sword Heaven Peak, is the third-highest peak.

On a normal day, unless one is led by the Sect Master himself or possesses the Sect Master’s token, not even a fly could get through.

The disciples responsible for guarding the peak were somewhat surprised to see the Sect Master leading an outsider up the mountain, but they did not inquire or obstruct their passage and simply allowed them to proceed.

Burial Sword Peak is also the most unique among the many peaks.

While the other peaks are lush and rich with Spiritual Energy,

Burial Sword Peak is bleak and desolate.

Forget lush greenery, it doesn’t even have a single tree, only a few wild grasses that drift in the wind.

About thirty meters from the summit is a very large circular platform that takes up half the area, continuing upwards to the top of the peak.

A tall, slender stele stands on the opposite side of the platform: Sword Tomb.

The inscriptions were flamboyant but carried a sinister and terrifying air.

Next to it, there are three or four round stone pillars, about four or five meters tall, that would require three adult men to embrace.

The surface of the pillars is covered with exquisite carvings, emanating Sword Qi.

Unlike the Sword Qi at the sect’s entrance, it is particularly domineering and sharp.

The pillars are interlaced with arm-thick iron chains that extend into the Sword Tomb.

There are twelve chains, linking the three stone columns, with three chains on each pillar.

The chains are known as the Locking Sky Chain.

Three layers of the Locking Sky Chain are an essential part of the Sword Tomb’s barrier, and it is these twelve chains that provide stable energy transfer within the tomb.

Therefore, the black evil fog within the Sword Tomb, each time it tries to break the seal and emerge into the daylight, is firmly locked down at the first instance.

ƝονǤօ.сᴑ

At the top of each of the three stone pillars, a saintly old figure is seen sitting in meditation, eyes closed.

The three elders have different expressions.

One is plump, one has white hair but a youthful face, and another is thin and lanky.

These three are the Supreme Elders of the Sword Heaven Sect, all over a hundred years old, each exuding a formidable presence, and are powerful cultivators in the early to mid-Dongxuan Realm.

Prior to this, they had been in closed-door cultivation, striving for higher realms, resolving not to emerge unless successful.

Now, they were forced to come out to guard the Sword Tomb.

All three had their hands on their knees, fingers fluttering, quickly forming sword gestures.

Above their heads, each had an ancient sword with a bizarre design, rotating slowly while emitting waves of sword cries.

The three elderly figures’ robes fluttered gracefully, though there was no wind to stir them.

The Locking Sky Chain functioned normally, relying entirely on the strong Spiritual Power supplied by the three Elders.

Otherwise, the evil qi and dark fog within the Sword Tomb would have broken through the seal long ago.

“Swish!”

“Swish!”

“Swish!”

As soon as Xu Fan and the others had just reached the platform, the three Elders had opened their eyes, scrutinizing them.

Their gaze seemed turbid yet was piercing, and with just a single sweep, everyone felt a sense of unease throughout their bodies.

Shen Yisen stepped forward, bowing respectfully and said, “Greetings, three Honored Uncles.”

Each of the three Elders was a mighty Dongxuan powerhouse, and Shen Yisen’s strength was not far off, but he was generations junior to them.

Even as the Sect Master, he always showed the proper respect at every meeting.

This revealed his excellent character and nature.

Aside from Xu Fan and the other two, everyone moved to pay their respects to the three Elders on the platform, with the utmost deference.

Although the three Elders had been in seclusion for many years, their contributions and sacrifices to the Sect were enough to earn the respect and admiration of the Sect’s community.

Xu Fan, however, was staring intently at the entrance to the Sword Tomb.

Shrill screams and wailing emerged from the Sword Tomb, which was exceptionally eerie.

One could clearly perceive the evil qi and dark fog within the Sword Tomb striking against the seal, causing the thick Locking Sky Chain to tremble.

Whenever the dark evil qi attacked, the protective array’s energy would instantly strike the area under attack, resisting the onslaught of the dark fog.

A thin transparent barrier enveloped the Sword Tomb, with the occasional streak of flowing light warding off the attacks of the dark fog.

The Locking Sky Chain and defensive array here were ranked among the best on Earth, but Xu Fan found them unimpressive, even rudimentary and riddled with flaws.

However, considering this was Earth, it was passable.

The elder with hair as white as crane feathers and a youthful face was reverently known as the Yun Luo Sword God, the most powerful among the Mount Tai’s three Supreme Elders, having reached the mid-stage of Dongxuan.

The Yun Luo Sword God swept his gaze over everyone and spoke in a deep voice, “Sect Master, what brings you here?”

The other two Elders, the Wind Fierce Sword God and the Thunder Crazy Sword God, were slightly less powerful, being in the early stage of Dongxuan.

Shen Yisen bowed respectfully once again and said, “Elder Yun Luo, what is the current situation in the Sword Tomb?”

Yun Luo Sword God replied slowly, “With the three of us here, the Sword Tomb shall remain in peace for another half year.”

In other words, after half a year, the evil qi and dark fog inside the Sword Tomb would once again see the light of day.

Shen Yisen shook his head helplessly, a trace of worry flashing between his brows, then turned to look at Xu Fan, who seemed composed and confident.

Now he had no choice but to trust him.

Turning his head to Yun Luo Sword God, he said, “Honored Uncles, this is Xu Fan, a young friend who has specially come to help resolve the issue of the evil qi and dark fog in the Sword Tomb!”

Suddenly.

The three Elders, who had their eyes closed, opened them simultaneously, fixing their gaze on Xu Fan, trying to see through his cultivation level.

But they all…
