Land Sword Immortal: Eighty Years as the Guardian of the Sword Pavilion Chapter 39 – You haven’t reached the limit yet
Insisting on venturing out to "experience life" seed to ng Fan like an affectation.
Of course, once one's cultivation level was strong enough, it was only right to go out and gain experience.
But for the current ng Fan, he definitely preferred quietly cultivating at the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, uninterested in the trials of the outside world.
However, Liu Yanping's thoughts were quite different from ng Fan's!
Little Sprout Liu had grown up in the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, which was her ho.
She had hardly ever left the Shu Mountain Sword Sect since she was a child.
Now at eighteen, with the rare opportunity to venture out, she was full of longing and eager to explore the outside world.
Moreover, her family's deliberate concealnt, or even deception, made her feel extrely stifled.
Everyone has a rebellious streak, especially a "young lady" like Liu Yanping, whose rebelliousness was particularly strong!
"The more they do this, the more I want to go out and gain experience. I'm not their pet; I won't let them have their way!" Liu Yanping said indignantly.
However, mastering the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique in three days was impossible for her alone, so she imdiately thought of ng Fan.
After all, she had witnessed ng Fan's extraordinary talents more than once!
Especially his mastery in sword techniques.
With ng Fan's help, she might indeed be able to master the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique within three days.
"Senior Sister Liu, I've never encountered the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique before, this..." ng Fan said with difficulty.
But before he could finish, Liu Yanping interrupted him.
"Just help master the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique within three days, and I'll give you a hundred Spirit Stones flat rate!"
Liu Yanping unhesitatingly deployed her financial power.
ng Fan could only smile wryly.
Who could resist such an offer?
Certainly not him!
For a hundred Spirit Stones, ng Fan would teach Liu Yanping the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique even if it ant staying awake for three days and nights!
Under normal circumstances, a genius with exceptional sword technique aptitude could indeed master a similar sword technique within three days.
But for soone with ordinary talent like Liu Yanping, it really wasn't possible!
However, with ng Fan's exceptional guidance, there was still hope.
"Senior Sister Liu, I need to take a look at the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique first. Do you have the manual?" ng Fan asked Liu Yanping directly.
"Of course!" Liu Yanping nodded.
The next second, she produced a manual and handed it to ng Fan.
ng Fan took the manual and began to peruse it.
The Demon-Slaying Sword Technique actually consisted of only one move, a very peculiar and special technique that even seed to have a cultivation thod to it.
But as long as it was a sword technique, it wouldn't stump ng Fan!
ng Fan sat cross-legged, the manual resting on his knees, and began to study it carefully.
About an hour later, ng Fan opened his eyes.
"Senior Sister Liu, the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique is quite special, but I've almost grasped it. There's hope that you can master it within three days!"
Hearing ng Fan's words, Liu Yanping's face imdiately lit up with joy.
"I knew you could do it!"
ng Fan smiled, thinking to himself, how could a man not succeed in front of a woman?
"Senior Sister Liu, the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique doesn't actually have fixed moves; it's more about a thod of wielding the sword.
Theoretically, it's sowhat like the legendary Sword Flight, which is a way of controlling the sword.
Of course, Sword Flight is far too advanced for us; it's probably only within reach once one attains the Heavenly Origin Realm.
This Demon-Slaying Sword Technique is specifically designed to target demons, and it's extrely lethal to them!
The senior who created this technique must have had a profound understanding of the demons' anatomy."
...
...
ng Fan spoke at length, sharing his insights on the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique with Liu Yanping.
"Moreover, this Demon-Slaying Sword Technique is quite special. If cultivated to the extre, it should be possible to develop the Sword Intent of Demon-Slaying, bypassing the level of Sword Rhy."
"This Demon-Slaying Sword Intent is probably the easiest Sword Intent to cultivate among the Shu Mountain Sword Sect's techniques!"
The Shu Mountain Sword Sect's duty is to slay demons and exterminate evil.
Not to ntion, beneath the Demon Locking Tower lies the gateway to the Demon Realm, and the sect's experts regularly go to the Demon Locking Tower to slay demons.
Therefore, the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique is almost considered a compulsory course for the Shu Mountain Sword Sect.
No wonder Outer Sect Disciples must master the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique before venturing out!
"Stop rambling about these aningless theories; just teach the technique directly," Liu Yanping said impatiently.
ng Fan could only smile wryly, skipping the insights and directly instructing Liu Yanping in the sword-wielding thod of the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique.
Although he had grasped the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique in an hour, teaching it to Liu Yanping in the sa amount of ti was clearly impossible.
Ti flowed like water, and soon the sun set, and the Sword Pavilion closed.
Senior Disciple Luo said to Liu Yanping, "Junior Sister Liu, the Sword Pavilion is closed, you should leave. Even if you want to accompany ng Fan, you'll have to co back tomorrow."
There was no choice, even though Senior Disciple Luo wanted to play matchmaker, he still had to issue the order to leave at the critical mont.
"I'm not leaving tonight!" Liu Yanping said offhandedly.
Hearing this, Senior Disciple Luo's eyes widened, and he looked at ng Fan with a mix of admiration and gave him a discreet thumbs-up.
Then he tactfully returned to his room and closed the door tightly.
ng Fan was helpless; he knew Senior Disciple Luo had misunderstood, and that guy was definitely thinking so dirty, indecent thoughts.
"Senior Sister Liu, it's dark already, you should go back. Otherwise, it won't be good for your reputation. If you want to learn the sword technique, just co back tomorrow!" ng Fan said earnestly to Liu Yanping.
But Liu Yanping shook her head and said, "Screw the reputation, I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of? We only have three days, and I won't sleep these three nights; I must master the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique!"
ng Fan helplessly said, "But..."
"No buts, do you still want the hundred Spirit Stones or not?" Liu Yanping said decisively.
Alright, ng Fan gave in!
He spent a sleepless night with Liu Yanping in the main hall on the first floor of the Sword Pavilion, practicing the sword.
Liu Yanping practiced, and he watched.
The next day at Dragon Hour, ng Fan let Liu Yanping continue practicing while he went to the second floor of the Sword Pavilion to et Elder Lin.
Coming to Elder Lin for an hour of instruction every Dragon Hour was a rule set by Elder Lin, and ng Fan naturally couldn't miss it.
"That girl downstairs is quite interesting, seems to be the granddaughter of Liu Qingyuan from the Alchemy Hall," Elder Lin said with a smile.
"Yes, Senior Sister Liu is Elder Liu's granddaughter!" ng Fan nodded.
"You lad, if you can win her over, you'll never lack cultivation resources. The Alchemy Hall is said to be the richest division in the entire Shu Mountain Sword Sect!" Elder Lin said with a mischievous grin.
ng Fan smiled wryly, not expecting the usually serious Elder Lin to have such a playful side.
He said earnestly, "Elder Lin, you've misunderstood. My relationship with Senior Sister Liu isn't what you imagine, and besides, Senior Sister Liu already has soone in her heart!"
Elder Lin said nonchalantly, "What's there to fear? As long as your sword is swift enough, you can cut down any corner. You're a handso young man with extraordinary sword skills; you can shake any corner!"
ng Fan could only laugh awkwardly.
He hadn't expected Elder Lin to have such a disrespectful side.
So ng Fan decisively chose not to continue this topic.
An hour later, ng Fan returned to the first floor of the Sword Pavilion.
Liu Yanping was still diligently practicing the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique, but her understanding of the sword was far inferior to ng Fan's.
After an afternoon and a night, she was still far from even the basics of the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique.
ng Fan was almost too embarrassed to watch, thinking to himself, how could Senior Sister Liu, who looked so capable, be so dense?
In fact, even if a Core Disciple were to take her place, they wouldn't perform much better than Liu Yanping under these circumstances.
It was just that ng Fan couldn't relate to the struggles of soone with ordinary talent.
"Senior Sister Liu, didn't I tell you that when wielding the sword in the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique, you need to be conscious? Your focus is too weak; you need to..."
ng Fan went from patiently instructing to eventually starting to criticize Liu Yanping.
Liu Yanping was battered by ng Fan's criticism, but she had to endure it without losing her temper.
If anyone else dared to treat her like this, she would have drawn her sword and struck!
But now she still needed ng Fan, so she silently endured his "humiliation" and criticism.
The second night, Liu Yanping still stayed in the Sword Pavilion, together with ng Fan.
When Senior Disciple Luo learned that ng Fan and Liu Yanping had only been practicing sword techniques for two nights, he was filled with contempt for ng Fan.
Such a long night, such a perfect ti, and they only focused on practicing the sword.
Was it a ntal or physical inability?
If you're going to practice, at least practice with a short sword!
At Dragon Hour, ng Fan once again went to the second floor of the Sword Pavilion.
Elder Lin looked at ng Fan and said, "Disciple, although your sword technique aptitude is monstrous, it's still extrely difficult to teach that girl the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique within three days. After all, not everyone is as extraordinary as you."
ng Fan frowned; he had also noticed this.
He had oversimplified things before, or rather, he had overestimated others.
He never expected Senior Sister Liu to be so slow!
Even such a simple Demon-Slaying Sword Technique was taking her so long to learn, even with his hands-on instruction.
Seeing ng Fan's frown, Elder Lin continued, "Actually, if you want Little Sprout Liu to master the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique within three days, the problem isn't with her, it's with you!"
ng Fan was sowhat perplexed and asked, "I'm dull; I don't understand what Master ans."
Elder Lin said, "Little Sprout Liu hasn't mastered the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique because firstly, her aptitude isn't monstrous, and secondly, there's a problem with your teaching. You haven't fully grasped the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique yourself, you haven't reached the limit!"
ng Fan felt that Elder Lin's words were sowhat unfair. He had only studied the Demon-Slaying Sword Technique for an hour and had already learned it.
Moreover, he was confident that he had learned it correctly and taught it without mistakes!
"Don't agree?" Elder Lin said with a smile.
