Land Sword Immortal: Eighty Years as the Guardian of the Sword Pavilion Chapter 217 – Is the golden body in the relics being possess
ng Fan's face showed a hint of surprise.
Could a single relic have such a significant effect?
Judging by Wu Tian's expression, it didn't seem like he was faking it!
Moreover, since it was the relic of a high monk who failed to ascend during tribulation crossing, it was only natural for it to have so special effects.
"I can lend you this relic to help you cultivate your Divine Soul, but you need to tell how to improve my Sword Dao cultivation and foundation," Wu Tian said to ng Fan.
ng Fan's Sword Dao was far superior to others, and it definitely had its unique aspects.
In Wu Tian's eyes, ng Fan's secret must be astonishing!
So, he widened his eyes and looked at ng Fan with great anticipation.
Hearing this, ng Fan said seriously, "Within the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, there is a Sword God Stele. Once a sword cultivator touches this stele, they can gain insights into the Sword Dao.
The higher the talent, the deeper the insights. It was through comprehending this Sword God Stele that I achieved my current accomplishnts!
As long as you lend this relic first, I'll take you to the Sword God Stele!
In the entire Shu Mountain Sword Sect, only I know the location of the Sword God Stele, so don't even think about playing any tricks."
ng Fan was lying through his teeth, trying to deceive Wu Tian.
Since Wu Tian was an outsider and unfamiliar with the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, ng Fan could deceive him without any scruples.
However, it wasn't entirely a lie, more like half-truths!
The Sword God Stele did indeed allow people to gain insights.
But only those with exceptional Sword Dao talent could gain those insights.
Based on ng Fan's observations, Wu Tian, this big monk, actually had a very strong Sword Dao talent, even stronger than the disciples of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect!
Perhaps, this guy could really gain so insights from the Sword God Stele.
Of course, he couldn't compare to ng Fan.
No matter how strong this guy's Sword Dao talent was, it couldn't surpass ng Fan's supre talent, Sword Dao Transcendence.
"Is this true? You're not lying to ?" Wu Tian looked at ng Fan, sowhat suspiciously.
If anyone else dared to lie to him, he would have beaten them to death.
But with ng Fan, he really had no choice.
He couldn't beat him!
"I am a disciple of the Shu Mountain Sword Pavilion, personally taught by Elder Lin. My identity is clear, how could I lie to you?" ng Fan said righteously, "Besides, if I lie to you, you can go and complain to Elder Lin!"
Seeing ng Fan's firm and powerful deanor, Wu Tian started to believe him a bit.
He held the relic in his hand, hesitating whether to give it to ng Fan.
ng Fan struck while the iron was hot, "What are you hesitating for? Don't you trust ? If I wanted to deceive you, I could just snatch the relic from your hand. You can't beat anyway, so why would I need to lie to you?"
This statent connected with Wu Tian's way of thinking.
Wu Tian felt that ng Fan made a lot of sense, because this was exactly how he usually acted.
"Alright, I trust you! Here's the relic, take to the Sword God Stele." With that, he handed the relic to ng Fan.
ng Fan took the relic, a slight smile appearing on his face.
"Rest assured, the Sword God Stele will greatly benefit you!"
Wu Tian was an impatient person and imdiately wanted ng Fan to take him to the Sword God Stele.
On the way, ng Fan asked, "To comprehend the Sword God Stele, it costs one hundred Spirit Stones per hour. Do you have Spirit Stones on you?"
Wu Tian frowned and looked at ng Fan, puzzled, "Didn't you say only you knew the location of the Sword God Stele? Why do we need Spirit Stones?"
"I do know the location, but there's a guard there, and you must pay Spirit Stones to gain insights," ng Fan said evasively.
Wu Tian complained, "Why didn't you say this earlier?"
ng Fan replied seriously, "You didn't ask, and besides, isn't it enough that you can gain insights? If you don't have Spirit Stones, I'll give you a hundred!"
"But..."
"No buts. Go and see if it's worth it first. If you think it's not worth it, I'll return the relic to you."
"What do you an, return it? The relic was only lent to you, you have to return it after using it!"
"Alright, alright, I get it. Just go and comprehend the Sword God Stele first."
***
When it ca to being glib, Wu Tian, this big monk, really couldn't compete with ng Fan, who had undergone nine years of compulsory education.
Soon, ng Fan brought him to the Sword God Temple.
Then he told the elder of the Sword God Temple that Wu Tian was a new disciple of the Sword Pavilion, taken in by Elder Lin, and paid a hundred Spirit Stones on Wu Tian's behalf.
"I've already paid a hundred Spirit Stones for you. Go and try comprehending for an hour. If you think it's worth it, continue," ng Fan said to Wu Tian.
"How do I comprehend it?" Wu Tian asked, looking at the massive Sword God Stele with great interest.
"Just put your hand on the Sword God Stele," ng Fan said casually.
Wu Tian followed the instructions, walked up to the Sword God Stele, and placed his hand on it.
***
After sending Wu Tian off, ng Fan left the Sword God Temple and returned to the Sword Pavilion to study the relic.
Given Wu Tian's exceptional Sword Dao talent, he should be able to gain so insights from the Sword God Stele, so it wasn't entirely a case of getting sothing for nothing.
ng Fan sat cross-legged on his bed, holding the relic in his palm, and began to touch it with his Divine Sense.
The mont his Divine Sense made contact with the relic, ng Fan's vision went black.
***
At the sa ti, in his consciousness space, he saw a golden figure.
Upon closer inspection, this golden figure wasn't a Buddha statue but an old monk with a very serene appearance.
Clearly, this was the owner of the relic.
The high monk from the Vajra Temple who failed to ascend during tribulation crossing, as Wu Tian had ntioned!
Seeing this golden figure, ng Fan felt a bit nervous and apprehensive.
He had been so focused on deceiving Wu Tian earlier that he hadn't asked about the specific process of using the relic to cultivate a Divine Soul.
Now, with this golden figure appearing in his consciousness space, ng Fan couldn't help but have so bad thoughts.
Wu Tian was a simpleton who didn't think much, but ng Fan was always cautious and couldn't help but think of the worst-case scenarios.
Especially after the Longquan Village incident, where he discovered that his martial uncle Li Sansi had been possessed by soone from the Ghost Shadow Sect, ng Fan had developed a fear of the term "possession."
Divine Sense touching the relic, and then a golden figure appearing in his consciousness space.
This scene made the always-cautious ng Fan suspect that the old monk might try to possess him.
Although Wu Tian had successfully cultivated a Divine Soul using the relic without any issues, ng Fan was still uneasy.
Following his principle of caution, ng Fan decided to withdraw his Divine Sense and stop touching the relic.
He planned to let Elder Lin examine it first. Once Elder Lin confird there were no issues, he would then use the relic's power to cultivate his Divine Soul.
Being cautious and prudent was a good thing, an absolute virtue!
But just as ng Fan was about to withdraw his Divine Sense, an unexpected event occurred.
He found that his Divine Sense was suddenly unable to leave the relic, tightly bound to it.
At the sa ti, his consciousness, or rather his soul, was being pulled towards the golden figure of the old monk.
