Chapter 202 – The world of cultivating immortals is full of spies
Upon hearing Lin Tianxing's words, Elder Lin's expression became extremely complicated, and his eyes showed a hint of helplessness.
He had indeed thought that Lin Tianxing didn't know about this matter, because at that time, Lin Tianxing was only four or five years old.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but let out a deep sigh.
It turned out that his son had been carrying this burden since he was four or five years old.
And as a father, he had thought his son knew nothing.
He was even more naive than a four or five-year-old child!
"Xiaoxing, even if you want revenge, there's no need to go to the Fengyun Demon Sect. As long as you quietly cultivate in the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, you can still seek revenge when you become strong!" Elder Lin said to his son Lin Tianxing.
Lin Tianxing shook his head and said, "What good is it even if I reach the highest realm in cultivation?
Father, your cultivation level is not weak, but do you have any hope of revenge?
Even if you were given another ten, twenty, or thirty years, do you really think you have a chance of successful revenge?
Even if you become the Sect Leader of Shu Mountain, the number one person in Shu Mountain, can you order the entire sect to attack the Fengyun Demon Sect?
You can't!!
Only by infiltrating the Fengyun Demon Sect and becoming one of their high-ranking members can I have a chance to destroy the entire Fengyun Demon Sect!"
For every sentence Elder Lin said, his son had ten retorts.
As a father, he was left speechless.
He really couldn't argue back.
In the end, Lin Tianxing left the Shu Mountain Sword Sect and headed for the Fengyun Demon Sect.
As for what alias Lin Tianxing used in the Fengyun Demon Sect, Meng Fan did not know.
Because the Sword Wraith Memory ended abruptly at this point, when Lin Tianxing left the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, he left this Fei Xing Sword behind.
***
Meng Fan opened his eyes and looked at the Fei Xing Sword in his hand, a complex expression on his face.
Then he slowly placed the Fei Xing Sword back on the wooden rack.
He had already wiped seven or eight thousand long swords on the first floor of the Sword Pavilion, so occasionally discovering some secrets was not surprising; theoretically, the probability wasn't that high.
Although the secret in the Fei Xing Sword's memory was shocking to Meng Fan, compared to the possibility that Sect Master Lin Jinghong might be an undercover agent, it was still a minor revelation.
"Eh~~~" Meng Fan let out a light exclamation, his brows furrowing.
Lin Tianxing went to the Fengyun Demon Sect.
That undercover Lin Jinghong came from the Fengyun Demon Sect to the Shu Mountain Sword Sect.
This...
Truth is stranger than fiction!
The layers of espionage were mind-boggling.
Meng Fan wiped his forehead and threw these messy thoughts out of his mind.
Although these secrets were astonishing, he didn't plan to get involved.
Even the secret about Elder Lin's son, Meng Fan didn't plan to meddle in it now.
After all, he knew his own limits and understood that he didn't have the capability to get involved.
Moreover, he felt there was no need to proactively tell Elder Lin that he knew about this matter. What good would it do?
It would only make Elder Lin sad for no reason, serving no purpose!
In the future, when he became stronger and had the ability, he could help Elder Lin and Lin Tianxing.
But for now, he wouldn't add to their troubles.
Meng Fan composed himself and continued to absorb the Essence of the Sword.
After that, he didn't encounter any more special Sword Wraith Memories.
After absorbing the Essence of the Sword, he returned to his room and continued to cultivate the Pure Yang Thunder Cultivation Scripture with all his might, striving to reach the Condensation Pill Realm as soon as possible.
***
The next day, Meng Fan arrived at the Thousand Catty Fall formation on the Cliff of Remorse.
Using the Condensing Elixir, the Essence of the Sword, and the Thousand Catty Fall formation, the three effects combined, Meng Fan's cultivation speed was like riding a rocket, not an exaggeration at all.
Even the cultivation speed of someone with an Excellent Spiritual Root couldn't compare to his!
***
Just like that, another month passed.
Meng Fan's cultivation level reached the sixth level of the Heavenly Origin Realm. He temporarily gave up on cultivating the True Scripture of Scarlet Blood and the Spirit Wind Profound Art, and the effects were indeed significant.
Moreover, within this month, Meng Fan received another piece of good news.
This good news was related to the Hong Qi Sword.
Although Hong Qi was still a long way from forming a soul body, the Hong Qi Sword had already reached the level of a Law Sword.
As Meng Fan's personal Law Sword, the Hong Qi Sword would be refined and gradually evolve as Meng Fan grew stronger.
But under normal circumstances, Meng Fan would have to cultivate to the peak of the Condensation Pill Realm or even the Summoning God Realm to have a chance of refining his personal Law Sword into a Law Sword.
But Meng Fan was not normal!
Every time he absorbed the Essence of the Sword, a portion would be absorbed by Hong Qi, and another portion by the Hong Qi Sword.
The early evolution of the Hong Qi Sword into a Law Sword was not something unimaginable.
At least to Meng Fan, it seemed quite normal!
Now, Meng Fan possessed a true Law Sword, not a defective one like the Red Sheep Sword.
This... was something even cultivators in the Condensation Pill Realm found hard to achieve.
It was worth mentioning that the abandoned disciple of the Buddhist sect, Wu Tian, had also made great progress during this time.
This guy had completely abandoned Buddhist cultivation in the Shu Mountain Sword Pavilion and focused solely on sword techniques.
The Ice Heart Sword Scriptures given to him by Elder Lin had been cultivated to the level of Sword Momentum in such a short time. Judging by his momentum, he seemed to be on the verge of breaking through to Sword Soul.
However, for a cultivator at the sixth level of the Heavenly Origin Realm to achieve Sword Soul, it was extremely difficult.
Even Meng Fan found it hard to accomplish!
But Wu Tian, this brat, actually had a chance.
Because he had an innate talent in spiritual power, far surpassing Meng Fan, and seemed to have already cultivated a Divine Soul.
The most crucial aspect of achieving Sword Soul was cultivating a Divine Soul.
However, Wu Tian's focus on sword training had caused his cultivation level to fall behind.
When he first came to the Sword Pavilion, Meng Fan was at the fourth level of the Heavenly Origin Realm, and Wu Tian was at the sixth level.
Now, Meng Fan was at the sixth level of the Heavenly Origin Realm, and Wu Tian was still at the sixth level!
If Meng Fan were to spar with him now, Wu Tian would have no chance of resisting and would be thoroughly beaten.
***
One day, Liu Yanping, this young lady, rarely came to the Sword Pavilion to find Meng Fan.
To be honest, it had been a long time since she last sought out Meng Fan.
Because as Meng Fan's cultivation level grew stronger, she felt increasing pressure and sensed that the gap between them was widening, so she was too embarrassed to seek him out.
After all, only friends with similar strength could stay in the same circle.
If the gap was too large, they would drift further apart.
Unless they were not just friends, but had a closer relationship.
And Liu Yanping and Meng Fan could only be considered ordinary friends, not particularly close.
"Senior Brother Meng, the sect has issued a training mission. Disciples of the Ghost Shadow Sect are practicing demonic arts in Kongyue Town, harming the people. We are to eliminate those disciples. Are you interested in joining?"
Liu Yanping had come to invite Meng Fan to participate in this training mission because she knew Meng Fan was very strong. If Meng Fan joined, this training mission would be much safer.
This young lady had already changed her address for Meng Fan from Junior Brother to Senior Brother.
She had no choice; Meng Fan was now much stronger than her, and she really didn't have the face to call herself Senior Sister anymore.
