Sword Realm, a Promise

Chen Fan had long been looking forward to the Sword Realm.

But he truly did not intend to go in immediately.

During this period, he had sparred with many experts from the Sword Sect. He had improved rapidly, yet he had not fully absorbed all his gains.

Chen Tiangan nodded. "Then I'll reserve you a slot for a month and a half from now. Places to enter the Sword Realm are in great demand. One often has to wait many days for a chance to enter!"

Chen Fan asked, "Master, what kind of place exactly is the Sword Realm? What is so special about it? I heard it can help people comprehend the nine great sword arts?"

Chen Tiangan said, "The Sword Realm itself is nothing special. Its spiritual energy is no richer than elsewhere. It contains only nine sword diagrams, corresponding to the nine great sword arts of our Sword Sect."

"You should know that the Sword Sect's nine great sword arts represent the sword paths forged by the nine Sword Emperors throughout the Sword Sect's history. The marks carved into each diagram within the Sword Realm contain the Dao resonance of an entire corresponding sword path. By studying them, one may comprehend their true essence and elevate one's realm in the sword arts..."

Sword diagrams containing nine complete sword paths?

Chen Fan's eyes gleamed. No wonder Zongzheng Xiu's cultivation had not changed much before and after entering, yet his strength had soared so dramatically. The Sword Realm allowed one to directly comprehend the sword paths corresponding to the nine great sword arts!

Chen Fan's heart stirred as he asked, "If that is so, why not simply remove the restrictions and let all Sword Sect disciples study them? Wouldn't everyone then be able to grow rapidly?"

Chen Tiangan snorted.
