648: Chapter 647 Art of Sword Integration_1 648: Chapter 647 Art of Sword Integration_1 This single ntion of ‘son-in-law’ montarily made Ren Feifan’s face heat up, and shortly after he stopped trying to guess the old man’s intentions and asked, “Old man, I need to ask you, why haven’t you returned to the Xu Family?
Why haven’t you tried to see until now?
How much do you know about Saint Doctor’s Gate?
Where did you get the Nine Xuan Divine Power from?”
Ren Feifan threw out several questions at once.
The old man just gave a slight smile without answering Ren Feifan’s queries.
Instead, he pulled out a Taishi chair, sat down, and picked up a brush to write a word on the paper.
“Jianghu!”
As Ren Feifan gazed upon these two bold and vigorous characters, he felt a surge of energy as if golden spear and armored horses were charging forth, boosting his cultivation by a notch.
The old man spoke slowly, “Where there are people, there’s a Jianghu.
What you see before you isn’t my true self, but a clone along with a formation I’ve set up, all waiting for your arrival.”
Ren Feifan felt puzzled.
Just what kind of cultivation does this old man have?
How co he never realised that the old man was so formidable before?
Seeing the shock in Ren Feifan’s eyes, the old man chuckled, “It isn’t as complex as you think.
Our world operates on a set of rules.
I’ve just gained so insight into these rules through certain ans.
But there’s a steep price to pay for this.”
“Rules?”
Ren Feifan was sowhat at a loss.
Was this world operating in a particular special way?
“Old man, if even these rules can be grasped, haven’t you already stood at the pinnacle of the world?” Ren Feifan said.
“The pinnacle?
You’re too naive.
When you’ve climbed to the peak of a mountain, you’ll discover another taller peak.
There’s no ultimate in the path of martial arts.”
The spectre seed to have thought of sothing, a trace of powerlessness flickering in his eyes.
“So, why did you set up such a grand sche to lure here?”
“Did you understand the two characters I wrote just now?” Xu didn’t say much but looked sowhat listless as his gaze rested on the characters on the desk.
Ren Feifan rely glanced at the piece of paper and said directly, “Where there are people, there’s a Jianghu.
Within the Jianghu, we are not our own masters.”
This is also the greatest insight that Ren Feifan had concerning this world.
The old man laughed heartily, looked at Ren Feifan with an appreciative glance, and said, “Well put!
‘We are not our own masters.’ The reason I plotted such a grand sche to bring you here is because we are not our own masters!”
Without waiting for Ren Feifan’s response, the old man continued, “And I can tell you very clearly that this sche has only just begun.
There are so things I cannot explain to you due to your lack of comprehension.
But I hope that you will follow your heart, and prepare for the grand challenges that lie ahead, and a slight misstep might lead to…”
Xu did not finish his sentence, but it was enough to leave Ren Feifan in deep thought.
“Did you really lead here to utter such nonsense?
Now that I know, can you start answering my previous questions?”
For so strange reason, even though the old man was Xu Shihan’s grandfather, Ren Feifan felt as though he was being played like a monkey.
The old man shook his head, “I’m not here to discuss those things with you.
I just wanted you to understand sothing.
I brought you here because there’s sothing I need to give you, entrusting you to guard it.”
“A thing?” At this point, Ren Feifan was a bit shocked.
But in the next mont, a piece of light yellow cloth floated out of thin air.
Ren Feifan reached out his hand, took the fluting piece of cloth, and was imdiately shocked when his eyes landed on it.
The cloth bore the depictions of various mountains and rivers!
And amidst the mountains and rivers was clearly marked — “Saint Doctor’s Gate!”
The Saint Doctor’s Gate was situated in a misty mountaintop, brimming with spiritual energy, an ethereal sight to behold.
The only regret was that this was just a part of a map, clearly there were several more components to it.
Ren Feifan could not conclude where the Saint Doctor’s Gate was located based on rely this map.
“It seems you truly are a disciple of the Saint Doctor’s Gate,” the old man took note of Ren Feifan’s changes in expressions and said seriously.
“I’ve taken this map, what do you need to do next?
Do I keep it safe or what?” Ren Feifan asked again.
Ren Feifan didn’t believe that based on his relationship with Xu Shihan alone, this old man would give him such a precious item.
“I hope you’ll complete it,” the old man said in a straightforward manner, “According to legends, Saint Doctor’s Gate was completely annihilated by several hundred sects a thousand years ago.
However, I always feel that the Saint Doctor’s Gate still exists.
The map you’re holding was obtained thirty years ago by , and the location marked on it is the Saint Doctor’s Gate.”
Ren Feifan was not surprised, given how the old man made such a grand gesture to bring him here, evidently, he wanted Ren Feifan to complete the map.
Hence, Ren Feifan was not surprised.
In fact, he genuinely hoped to complete it because it was related to his sect.
A light flickered in his eyes, and he suddenly seed to realise sothing.
Since the old man was asking him for help, he should naturally ask for a reward in return.
His power was very clear, if he didn’t demand rewards, it would be truly against the natural order!
Yes, at least this was what Ren Feifan thought at the mont.
Thus, Ren Feifan’s facial expressions beca quite rich at this mont, he looked troubled and said, “Old sir, you understand just how difficult it is to complete this map.
Otherwise, the Saint Doctor’s Gate would have been discovered long ago.
Besides, you should consider that even with my ability now, if I encounter any powerful beings, I won’t even be able to protect myself.
What if I get killed while searching for the Saint Doctor’s Gate?”
Ren Feifan made a ‘throat-slashing’ gesture, vividly illustrating his point.
The old master’s mouth twitched a few tis.
He’d lived for decades.
If he couldn’t understand the implication of Ren Feifan’s words, he’d have lived in vain.
Nevertheless, Ren Feifan did have a point.
Soon after, he asked, “What do you want in return or as a condition?”
Talking with a perceptive person was really relaxing.
Ren Feifan chuckled a few tis, rubbing his hands together, he said, “Well…
you can decide.
Anything like martial arts techniques, elixirs, weapons would do, preferably those that are really powerful …”
After he finished speaking, the old man thought for a mont and said, “I’m rely a spectre and don’t actually possess any tangible treasures.
However, I can grant you a seventh-ranking force.
You can use its power at critical monts.
At the very least, it can save your life.”
In an instant, a triumphant expression spread across Ren Feifan’s face.
Even though he didn’t know how powerful the old man actually was, judging from all his actions, the old man definitely had to be highly capable, otherwise he wouldn’t have set up such a grand sche.
“I will also give you a Sword Fusion Technique that can integrate any divine weapon.
You can extract its essence and discard the rest.”
Upon hearing about this technique, Ren Feifan imdiately felt like he had won big this ti!!!
He had the Autumn Water Traceless Sword, the Dust Falling Dragon Sword, and even a Sacred Sword.
What kind of power would they possess if the three swords were rged?
Soon enough, Ren Feifan felt an influx of information entering his mind.
He instantly had the Sword Fusion Technique imprinted in his brains.
“The things that should be handed over have all been given to you.
Since I can’t step out at will and there are always people watching , I hope that you can take good care of Xu Shihan and never let her get hurt.”
“As for the other stuff, I believe in you.”
“Lastly, my energy is running out and my illusion is about to dissipate.
I hope that you will be able to take care of yourself.”
In the next second, the old man disappeared.
Everything returned to tranquility.
(I’ll stop updating for today.
I’ve been writing at the internet cafe all this while and its environnt really doesn’t suit creative work.
It’s all smoggy and so distracting.
I’ll update more tomorrow to make up for today’s loss.)
