Secret Records of the Leader of the Beichen Sword Sect-Chapter 891 - 461: Coming and Going at Will_2

"If you can lend a helping hand this time, successfully escort this ship to Nine Yin Mountain, it will count as a merit, and staying in our Sword Sect as a tribute protector is also acceptable."

Fen Yun was overjoyed,

"I have struggled for a hundred years without entry into the Righteous Path, many thanks to the Sect Leader for this opportunity. I will surely train diligently and strive hard to bring glory to our Sword Sect."

Tie Dan nodded,

"Hmm, good, with this connection, when they kill you, I will have a reason to intervene."

Fen Yun felt like crying...

"Alright, let’s not talk about this for now. Extend your hand."

Tie Dan formed a sword technique with his hand and carved a sword talisman on Fen Yun’s palm,

"The group of people around us have been secretly following us all along, gathering more and more. The first wave probably can’t wait to act.

I counted five Nascent Soul Qi Refiners with some skills among them, and there may be other experts hiding in the shadows. Relying solely on you will likely be a tough battle.

This time, I’ll give you a Red Evil God Sword Talisman to protect yourself. Just infuse the Daoist energy you cultivated on Fire Flame Island into the talisman to activate it. If necessary, I will also intervene."

"Yes, thank you for bestowing the talisman, Sect Leader."

Fen Yun also understood the urgency, earnestly gave thanks, and prepared his full attention to cope with the imminent battle.

Tie Dan gave a talisman and left him be. After all, didn’t this guy just say it himself earlier, not dying after hundreds of bouts of bad stomach trouble, staying near the entrance of an ancient Daoist Palace for hundreds of years where even fish refused to live, what a deep fortune and who knows what kind of ancient old monster reincarnated as a human this is. No need to worry about him.

"You’ve been wandering around on the ship for quite some time, any guidance?"

So, handing over the deck to Fen Yun, Tie Dan entered the cabin directly, looking at the towering piles of containers.

Exposed by Tie Dan, a person stepped out of the shadow behind the containers.

This person was tall and wore an Eight Treasures Purple Gold Robe, embroidered with sun, moon, stars, dragons, phoenixes, and qilin patterns, every line woven with Immortal Silk. Handsome face, high nose bridge, a small patch of beard on the chin, he appeared not more than in his thirties, yet his True Breath was restrained, shrouding him an inch in a Qi Cocoon, indicating his Qi skills had reached the peak.

"Thanks for the hospitality, Sect Leader. The Nine Yin Sword Formation lives up to its name, I shall take my leave now."

The bearded man bowed in thanks, but Tie Dan still blocked him with a cold expression.

"You came without a greeting, since you’re here, you can’t leave without stating your name?"

The bearded man smiled,

"Since I can’t open this hidden treasure, naturally there’s no need to stay long. Your honor too, entangled in karma, why invite trouble further."

Tie Dan wouldn’t play nice with him,

"Nonsense! Think this is a place you can come and go as you please!"

But the bearded man remained smiling,

"If I smash your ship and escape, would you really give chase, abandoning these hundred boxes of goods?"

Tie Dan glared at him,

"You can try."

The duo found themselves locked in confrontation, silence prevailing for a moment, the bearded man slowly curled his lips,

"What do you want?"

"Leave an arm as compensation!"

Tie Dan wasted no words, immediately thrusting a Lightning Sword towards him!

Tie Dan initially thought with his series of fortunate encounters, his sword power had soared, he could easily deal with this fool, but to his surprise, the man dodged!

Not bad! A sidestep unexpectedly allowed him to evade the Lightning Sword Stab!

Such reaction! Such tunneling skill! To dodge his Lightning Sword! This bearded man isn’t rubbish!

Tie Dan was alarmed, his hand not faltering! In the instant of passing by, he swung backhand, exploding a burst of Beichen Sword Radiance! Like a blooming Green Lotus, it enveloped the bearded man in an instant!

Yet the opponent was formidable! A sweep of his Purple Gold Sleeves, and a mighty wind rose, talisman leaves fluttering, blocking the Beichen Sword Radiance three feet away! Using True Qi to exchange for sword energy! Protective Qi Wall seemingly infinite, even with sword energy repeatedly breaking, it was blown away! Even the second sword failed to take him down!

But Tie Dan had a third sword!

Mighty sword energy instantly gathered at fingertips, backhand stabbing behind!

"Bang!"

To his surprise, this strand of sword energy was swapped away!

It turned out in these few moves, the bearded man not only dodged Tie Dan’s signature triple Lightning Sword! He counter-attacked in an instant! Similarly backhanded a Finger Force, striking a dead spot on Tie Dan’s back! So it clashed with the sword energy, exploding into scattered light!

Good, good, good! Master among masters!

"Beichen Nine Luminaries!"

Unexpectedly, drowsiness brought a pillow, itchiness a neck extended for sword testing, Tie Dan’s spirit rose! Immediately he executed the supreme skill hidden by the Nine Yin Sword Pavilion!

With a flash under his feet, he tunneled and shifted! Another flash of Lightning Sword!

At his fingertips, the willow leaf-like cyan-white Qi Sword thrust, exploding sword aura brilliance, splitting into three, three into nine! A single sword birthed Nine Luminaries Sword Aura! Continuous like tide! Mountain-topple-overwhelming! Shining atop! Nine stars shining together! Attacking the bearded man with full force!

"Trample the Celestial Skies!"

Yet the bearded man was evidently an unparalleled old monster! From a peak Mystic Sect! In this fleeting instant, without a hint, he executed an extremely superior escape technique! In the brilliance of the Nine Luminaries Sword Aura, he Divine Movement flashed continuously! Afterimages pierced by sword light, layers shattered like water curtains! Each sword was dodged!

"Ice River Escape!"

Consecutively failing to land a hit, Tie Dan naturally understood the bearded man had mastered the art of escape profoundly, releasing and withdrawing at will, fearing only using Beichen Sword Rainbow or Cloud Riding Escape Technique, or Blood Shadow Divine Movement could barely keep pace.

However, now engaged in a fierce battle within the cabin, just as threatened earlier, Tie Dan worried the Beichen Sword Rainbow would destroy goods and damage the Treasure Ship, making cleanup troublesome. With no conclusive victory, he couldn’t casually reveal the unique escape skills of the Demon Sect.

Thus, Tie Dan reluctantly resorted to secondary means, using Ice River Escape to chase the opponent’s escape route while drawing layers of Xuanji Ice Walls to impede his tunneling skill, simultaneously releasing Xuanji Ice Breath, attempting to sever his Qi Circulation!

"Heaven-Severing and Vein-Cutting!!"

Unexpectedly, the bearded man’s combat mindset was as on par with Tie Dan’s! Chased by the Ice River for two steps, he immediately assessed Tie Dan’s preparation for a long-term battle to wear him down! Decisively counterattacked! A finger flick unleashed chaotic, formless Qi! "Bang Bang" shattering Xuanji Ice Walls into dust!

"Child Sword!!"

But Tie Dan was even more decisive! A brief pause, and I unleash a big move right in your face! Launching directly a Red Vein Invasion! Sword light struck! Suddenly BI-U—a laser electric eye activated, releasing overwhelming Dao Power! Sword light tens of thousands feet! Blasting straight at the bearded man right in front!

"Mystic Origin Break!!"

At this moment of life and death! On the brink of disaster! The bearded man was also forced to unleash his ultimate move, roaring, pointing! Instantly channeling his lifelong power! Breaking force with force! Breaking Qi with Qi!

"Bang Bang Bang Bang!"

Qi booming, sound explosions erupted! Child Sword Light versus Mystic Origin Breaking Technique! Top-notch Cultivation Technique outputs clash and explode! Qi waves, dust swept across, shattering surrounding ice walls into countless fragments! The surging heatwave rushed head-on, smothering icy currents like smoke!

Amidst temporary ice mist, dust like smoke, in the dim hull cargo hold, only two figures stood opposite in silence, not posing, but because in those few short seconds of wave exchange, both had exhausted their lifelong powers! Qi thoroughly drained, neither could move!

One eye blasted into a hole by Mystic Origin Break, half the skull shattered, Tie Dan stood amidst the blood streaming across his face, frowned, calculated with fingers,

"True Light Primordial Breaker? East Splendor Mountain Jiaoyuan Cave Nine Heavens Temple? For someone so capable, are you the temple master?"

The bearded man’s smile froze on his face, only clutching the crosscut, severed arm, the scarred gash across the chest and almost heart-splitting wound, holding back a long while before muttering,

"Damn, who said you didn’t know arithmetic, you’ve screwed me over..."
