Seeing the young man walk in, Elder Hong's mouth twitched.
He had witnessed the tragic experiences of the other elders before him, and it had truly left him frightened.
'The Nine Swords of Scarlet Lotus is a technique that I devoted ten years of my life to create. Even if Pavilion Master Kang were to cultivate it, he could only reach Initiate within an incense's time. No matter how talented this fellow is, reaching Minor Accomplishment should be an impossibility. There's nothing I should be worried about...'
Elder Hong calmed himself down by consoling him before pointing to the table in front. "The manual for the Nine Swords of Scarlet Lotus is there. You have an incense's time starting from now!"
After which, he immediately lit the incense beside him and smoke slowly drifted within the room.
Zhang Xuan walked up to the table, touched the manual, and an identical copy appeared in the Library of Heaven's Path.
