At Dragon Hour on the second day, Meng Fan arrived at the Sword Pavilion’s second floor as usual.

Elder Lin was not at all surprised to see Meng Fan, who had already achieved the True Martial Realm.

Just yesterday, he learned that Meng Fan’s Sword Driving Art had reached the level of controlling ten long swords simultaneously.

Therefore, Meng Fan’s overnight breakthrough to the True Martial Realm was completely within his expectations.

Elder Lin had grown accustomed to Meng Fan’s rapid progress; controlling ten swords within a month was no longer a surprise to him.

Previously, whenever Elder Lin assigned tasks to Meng Fan, he would subconsciously set a deadline.

Yet every time, Meng Fan would drastically beat the deadline, shocking him again and again.

Now, Elder Lin was used to it. No matter how outrageous Meng Fan’s achievements were, he found them normal and was no longer shocked.

This time he was truly unshaken, not merely feigning composure as before.

“Very good. With this pace, perhaps you really can defeat Ye Qinxin in two years,” Elder Lin said, looking at Meng Fan with immense satisfaction.

Meng Fan smiled and responded, “Master, it’s not perhaps, it’s certain!”

A cultivator of the Heavenly Origin Realm was nothing to him, especially with nearly two years ahead; Meng Fan truly didn’t take it seriously.

To be honest, he was a bit arrogant.

But he couldn’t help it; he had the right to be.

“You’ve just entered the True Martial Realm. Next, I won’t rush your progress. First, stabilize your cultivation and familiarize yourself with this realm,” Elder Lin advised Meng Fan.

The kind of “special training” in the Heavenly Heart Mountains that crazily boosted one’s cultivation level wouldn’t be arranged for Meng Fan again in the short term.

What Elder Lin didn’t know was that Meng Fan could rapidly advance to the third or fourth level of the True Martial Realm even without his help.

That’s because Meng Fan still had a vast reserve of the Essence of the Sword within him, unspent.

“Master, what should I focus on improving next?” Meng Fan inquired.

Elder Lin was clearly prepared for this question.

He chuckled and said, “Are you pretending to be ignorant? Now that you’ve reached the True Martial Realm, where do you think you should concentrate your efforts?”

Meng Fan was indeed feigning ignorance because reaching the True Martial Realm meant he could start practicing visualization techniques.

However, he didn’t have any visualization techniques, and even if he went to the Scripture Pavilion, he could only get the most basic one, which was far from satisfying for him.

He came to Elder Lin today to coax a visualization technique out of him.

Of course, Elder Lin had already prepared one in advance without Meng Fan needing to ask.

“Master, I want to learn visualization techniques,” Meng Fan said directly, no longer beating around the bush.

“You, with your astonishing enlightenment, would be wasting your talent on ordinary visualization techniques,” Elder Lin said, looking at Meng Fan with eyes full of expectation.

Meng Fan quickly followed up, “That’s exactly it, Master. If I look for visualization techniques myself, I can only find the most basic ones, so I came to ask you for guidance.”

Elder Lin shook his head, “The visualization techniques I’ve learned are not suitable for you. Or rather, they’re not worthy of you. With your enlightenment, there are better options!”

Meng Fan’s heart skipped a beat at these words.

Could it be that Elder Lin intended to find him a visualization technique even more powerful than the one he practiced?

Given Elder Lin’s strength and status, the visualization techniques he practiced were certainly very powerful.

More powerful visualization techniques…

Meng Fan felt a surge of excitement.

“Master, what should I do?”

Elder Lin didn’t speak, remaining silent for a moment.

Then he suddenly stood up and walked out of the Sword Pavilion.

“Follow me!”

Meng Fan obediently followed Elder Lin, leaving the Sword Pavilion.

Moments later, they arrived at a temple.

The temple was unnamed, but it was filled with a sense of grandeur, vastness, and infinity.

The temple’s presence was no less imposing than the Demon Locking Tower!

It’s known that the Demon Locking Tower is one of the most mystical buildings of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect.

Yet this temple gave Meng Fan a feeling that it might even surpass the Demon Locking Tower.

Meng Fan never knew that within the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, there existed such a mysterious place.

Elder Lin led Meng Fan to the front of the temple, his face solemn, his eyes filled with reverence and faith.

“Master, what is this place?” Meng Fan asked Elder Lin.

“Silence!” Elder Lin turned and said to Meng Fan.

Meng Fan obediently closed his mouth and said no more.

Clearly, this place was exceedingly sacred within the Shu Mountain Sword Sect.

“Wait here for me, do not wander off,” Elder Lin instructed Meng Fan, then approached the temple alone.

In front of the temple’s gate, there was an old man dozing off, seemingly inconspicuous.

But it was obvious that this old man must be a terrifying being; otherwise, he wouldn’t be stationed here.

Elder Lin approached the old man and conversed with him for a long time.

Finally, Meng Fan saw Elder Lin seemingly hand something to the old man, who then nodded in satisfaction.

Elder Lin then returned and said to Meng Fan, “Follow me into the temple.”

Meng Fan followed Elder Lin into the temple, passing by the old man at the gate, who smiled at him, revealing pearly white teeth.

Meng Fan was deeply impressed because most old people had yellowed teeth, and some were even missing a few.

An old man with not only a full set of teeth but also such white ones was indeed rare.

Upon entering the temple, Meng Fan’s face showed a hint of surprise.

The vast hall contained only a high platform.

Aside from that, there was nothing else.

Meng Fan could see that on the platform, three items were enshrined.

A sword, a cauldron, and a piece of jade.

Meng Fan was startled, his face filled with shock, as he had a vague guess.

“If the Demon Locking Tower is the forbidden area of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, then this place can be considered the holy land of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect!” Elder Lin said to Meng Fan, “This is the Three Emperors Platform!”

The Three Emperors Platform?

The items enshrined on the Three Emperors Platform were clearly the legendary Three Divine Artifacts.

Fuxi’s Sword, Shennong’s Cauldron, Nuwa’s Jade!

Meng Fan said in astonishment, “Master, are these the Three Divine Artifacts?”

Elder Lin nodded, “Indeed, these are the Three Divine Artifacts!”

Although he had guessed it, hearing Elder Lin’s confirmation still made Meng Fan’s heart surge with shock and disbelief.

He never dreamed that Elder Lin would bring him to see these legendary Three Divine Artifacts.

Truth be told, disciples of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect had all heard of the legends of the Three Divine Artifacts.

But very few had the chance to see them with their own eyes!

Meng Fan never expected to have this honor so soon, to witness the grandeur of the Three Divine Artifacts firsthand.

He had only wanted to snag a little benefit, but Elder Lin had given him an entire meadow!
