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

Chapter 175 – My rules are the rules

In Meng Fan's view, if he could successfully obtain the inheritance of the Sword Immortal of Alchemy, then he would truly be the rightful heir of the Sword Immortal.

Taking these Spiritual Swords with him wouldn't be an issue.

But if he couldn't pass the Sword Immortal's test and become his "heir," he naturally wouldn't touch these Spiritual Swords.

Meng Fan couldn't care less about other people's rules; he had his own!

Meng Fan strode into the stone gate and walked towards the plaza.

Behind him, Ye Qingyu silently watched, not daring to advance with Meng Fan.

Because Ye Qingyu knew very well that she didn't have the ability to pass this inheritance sword formation, it was better to stay outside obediently.

If she rashly went in, it would only cause trouble for Meng Fan and might even increase the difficulty of the inheritance sword formation.

Although she didn't say anything, she silently cheered for Meng Fan in her heart.

From her perspective, she desperately hoped Meng Fan would pass the test of this inheritance sword formation!

Because only if Meng Fan passed the test and unlocked the sword formation, would she have the chance to enter the grand hall behind and receive the alchemical inheritance.

For both her and Meng Fan, this was a win-win situation.

However... She glanced back at the passage behind her, feeling a bit uneasy.

In this situation, it was naturally a good thing for her.

But for the Ye family, it might not be the same!

Indeed, she was a member of the Ye family, but the Ye family didn't belong to her; she wasn't in charge.

Ye Qingyu was a bit worried that the Ye family might leap out to stop her.

After all, she had invited Meng Fan to break the inheritance sword formation without her family's knowledge.

Because she knew very well that her family would never agree.

If the Ye family were to negotiate with Meng Fan, they would definitely impose many harsh conditions.

And based on Ye Qingyu's understanding of Meng Fan, she knew he would never accept those conditions.

In fact, Meng Fan originally didn't want to come; she had to "coax" him over with great effort.

For the inheritance of the Sword Immortal of Alchemy, she had no choice but to burn her bridges, even if it meant offending her own family!

Perhaps her mother was right; she was indeed a ingrates!

But in the entire Ye family, only she had the ability to obtain the inheritance of the Sword Immortal of Alchemy.

If she didn't fight for it, the inheritance would remain buried.

If the Sword Immortal of Alchemy found out that his inheritance had not been accepted for hundreds of years, he would definitely be infuriated by these useless descendants!

So, she felt she wasn't wrong.

She accepted being a ingrates!

She had already done enough for the Ye family over the years, but the Ye family members, apart from sucking her blood and peeling her skin, hadn't shown her the slightest concern.

When Ye Qingyu entered the tunnel earlier, she had already closed the entrance again, but it was just a futile attempt to deceive herself.

If they delayed here for too long, the Ye family would definitely come looking for her.

She hoped Meng Fan could hurry up!

Ye Qingyu silently prayed in her heart...

Meng Fan had no idea about the twists and turns in Ye Qingyu's mind.

How could he have imagined that such an ice-cold beauty, who appeared extremely aloof, was actually making secret moves behind the scenes?

Just as Zhang Wuji's mother said, beautiful women always have more schemes.

However, Ye Qingyu's actions were more of a pitfall for the Ye family, not for Meng Fan. In a way, Meng Fan was still benefiting.

Of course, that was on the premise that Meng Fan could pass the inheritance test of the Sword Immortal's sword formation.

***

At this moment, as Meng Fan stepped onto the plaza, he felt an endless surge of sword intent rushing towards him.

It was just a formation, yet it contained at least a hundred types of sword intent.

This Ye family ancestor, Ye Lingyun, truly had a grand vision!

Even though Meng Fan had an extremely deep foundation in Sword Dao and a broad perspective, he was slightly startled at this moment.

Of course, after the initial shock, he felt a surge of joy.

Hundreds of types of sword intent, if integrated into his own [Primal] Great Way of the Sword, if integrated into his Myriad Swords Returning to One, what an astonishing improvement it would be!

Meng Fan, thrilled by the sight, immediately sat down cross-legged at the edge of the plaza.

One minute.

Ten minutes.

Half an hour!

One hour!!

***

Outside, Ye Qingyu was initially quite calm.

But as time passed, the longer it went on, the more anxious she became.

This Meng Fan, after entering the plaza, did nothing but sit down directly. This was too bizarre!

And he had been sitting for an entire hour. What on earth was he doing?

She had attempted to break this sword formation before and had seen other experts try to break it. Although everyone failed without exception, there were still some insights and experiences.

In this sword formation, there were numerous sword intents that had to be broken one by one to have a chance of obtaining the Sword Immortal's sword formation inheritance.

But Meng Fan had been sitting for an hour without breaking a single sword intent. What was he doing?

Playing?

Ye Qingyu had an urge to shout at Meng Fan, urging him to hurry up.

But she was afraid of disturbing Meng Fan and causing some bad outcome, so she could only endure her anxious mindset.

It was very uncomfortable...

In fact, at this moment, Meng Fan was immersed in the ocean of Sword Dao and sword intent.

Ordinary people who came here, facing this inheritance sword formation, would think of destroying these sword intents to pass the test and obtain the inheritance.

This wasn't wrong. If one could destroy all these sword intents, they could indeed break the sword formation and receive the inheritance!

But it was too difficult.

Hundreds of sword intents, interconnected, pulling one would affect the whole.

If one tried to forcefully attack these sword intents, they could even form a Sword Spirit or Sword Soul, or even a Sword Domain.

The Domain of the Sword!

How could one break through that?

Unless the Ye family could invite someone like the Sect Master of Shu Mountain or the Clan Master of the Ghost King Sect, but did the Ye family have that capability?

No!

So the correct way to break the formation was not to forcefully attack but to integrate.

As long as one could learn all these hundreds of sword intents and master them, they could easily unlock this inheritance sword formation.

However, who could learn hundreds of sword intents all at once?

Honestly, it would be more reliable to invite the Sect Master of Shu Mountain!

But this seemingly impossible task was something Meng Fan, a monstrosity, could accomplish.

Even so, it was extremely difficult for Meng Fan to comprehend these hundreds of sword intents.

It took him a full two hours!

With his astonishing Sword Dao foundation, combined with the [Primal] Great Way of the Sword's introduction and the terrifying talent of [Sword Dao Transcendence], Meng Fan finally mastered these hundreds of sword intents.

His already astonishing Sword Dao foundation had now become even more terrifying!

The [Primal] Great Way of the Sword and Myriad Swords Returning to One had also seen a certain degree of improvement.

Although he hadn't yet obtained the Sword Immortal's sword formation inheritance, Meng Fan had already gained a lot and felt the trip was worthwhile.

Just as Ye Qingyu, waiting outside, was becoming extremely anxious, she finally saw Meng Fan stand up.

"Ah..." She let out a long sigh of relief, feeling somewhat relaxed.

Although she didn't know what Meng Fan was up to, she believed that his two hours of meditation must have been purposeful!

If she couldn't understand, it only meant her realm wasn't high enough, and she shouldn't doubt it.

Since things had come to this point, she could only choose to trust Meng Fan.

If Meng Fan failed...

Well, failure didn't seem to be a big deal.

On the contrary, if he succeeded, troubles would follow, and she would have to face the dissatisfaction and anger of the Ye family.
