Secret Records of the Leader of the Beichen Sword Sect-Chapter 894 - 463: Shipwreck and Death

Tie Dan watched from the side and shook his head.

As expected, although Outer Daoist Loose Cultivators may momentarily possess deep Dao Power and profound Cultivation, able to hard-press the Mystic Sect, and wield various miraculous Divine Skills and Secret Techniques, their Qi Refining lacks precision, they do not understand Escape Technique, and when they encounter these Mystic Sect Qi Refiners who have pushed the Taiji Dao to the extreme, they find themselves in an awkward situation of being unable to catch up, unable to fight back, and unable to escape.

In a fair duel, the gap might not be so vast, but once faced with such ambushes, calculated sieges involving mortal danger, and the predicament of being overwhelmed by numbers, they can only bow their heads and wait for death as they are subjected to humiliation, utterly incapable of escaping alive from the hands of Mountain Man.

Thus, unable to win a single generation after generation, their luck is entirely defeated, their Immortal Fate completely lost, Magic Couple Materials and Land unobtainable, Sect Elders are continually slain, later generations without guidance or protection encounter increasingly difficult Cultivation, and the more the Divine Skill Secret Manuals are lost, the more ineffective they become. Even you may gradually lose your ancient Daoist, inheritance after thousands of years.

And today’s Sword Sect, how is it not already caught in such a vicious cycle of misery?

Think back to the Nine Yin Peak, Sword Pavilion’s pinnacle, how awe-inspiring it once was.

Kui Sect Four Branches refined power and cast swords, taught and instructed, perfected talismanic arts and calculations, practiced Alchemy and Medicine, nothing was unrefined. Shao Sect Three Branches excelled in Sword Formation, Sword Light, Sword Technique, demon-slaying and demon-breaking, mountain guarding array, slayed evil and guarded the Dao, invincible across the world.

But now, passed on only as a single sprout left, Tie Dan.

Although he holds the secret teachings of Shao Sect Three Branches and was personally taught by Tiangangzi, possesses Tianshu Peak’s Beichen Sword Casting Secret Scripture, successfully passed down Ruyi Sword Scripture and Nine Luminaries Divine Sword, these Sect Leader’s direct lineage skills.

However, the Secret Techniques and Divine Skills of Tianxuan, Heavenly Mechanism, Heavenly Authority, have actually already become lost along with him clearing Honzan, slashing the Nine Peaks.

Currently, scattered in Outer Heaven, the Eighteen Flying Stars regard him as the renegade disciple, rebellious and immoral, desiring to replace him and reclaim Honzan, and there is absolutely no possibility of reconciliation.

And Tie Dan has no proper disciple under his seat, with none of the various Sword Scripture passed on, and should the unexpected happen, trapped in a killing calamity, it may not even take a hundred and fifty years for Beichen Sword Sect’s reputation to vanish, obscured into dust.

Perhaps, like in a dream, he could directly engrave the Sword Scripture onto Nine Yin Mountain and pass it on to everyone in the world... 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

"Your Excellency has watched for a long time, what have you discovered? Why not personally enter the array and see?"

Returning to his senses, Tie Dan looked up and saw that the five-member team on the deck had swiftly dealt with Fen Yun, ready and actively challenging him.

So Tie Dan did not hide anymore, seizing the chance, he canceled his invisibility and walked onto the deck,

"Guests are all welcomed, please share your names."

One of the members from Xuanming Dao stepped forward to negotiate,

"Mountain Man, hidden visitor, without sect or affiliation, only seeking a share of Immortal resources, we ask the Sect Leader to fulfill this."

Tie Dan chuckled coldly,

"Spouting nonsense, where under the heavens can so many thousand-year Daoist masters emerge, and I happen to encounter them upon coming down from the mountain for a few days?

Heh, aren’t you ordered by the sect to specifically test my skills and gauge the Sword Sect’s capacity?

With a total of nine major sects, they are all reputable names.

And without a proper place for the corpses, truly exposing them on Cloud Platform Peak, your Sect Leader would blame me for not paying respect."

The five remained silent for a moment, then the one from Xuanming Dao laughed,

"Fine, if True Monarch Xuantian truly possesses such prowess, feel free to sever our heads and toss them onto Cloud Platform Peak.

Of course, rest assured, your remains shall be buried on Nine Yin Mountain if we gain a slight edge."

"Ha! Such boastful words! Let’s see your skills then!"

Tie Dan opened his Sword Ball and stepped into the array.

The five instantly transformed and vanished, turning into five-colored lights, forming an array to attack.

It must be said, this group is indeed very powerful.

The earlier battle where they dominated Fen Yun revealed a glimpse of their prowess. This group not only excels in Daoist Skills but also possesses a shared understanding, coordinating seamlessly, cutting off any escape route Fen Yun attempts to forge, instantly denying chances with destructive Magic Treasures. They did not even give Tie Dan a chance to assist.

With such Cultivation, such insight, such experience, these five are definitely from the same sect and are the elite True Disciples that only the nine major sects’ top Mystic Sect giants can cultivate, the sect’s backbone.

This thought explains why Dan Huazi, despite being evenly matched with Tie Dan, did not wish to confront Tie Dan head-on earlier and preferred to retreat even if losing a piece of flesh. After all, these Mystic Sect individuals are so astute, who would willingly be the leading outpost, the mantis catching the cicada, risking mutual harm to let the yellow bird benefit?

And at this moment, as Tie Dan personally enters the array and exchanges blows, he instantly feels an unprecedented pressure.

His Yao Guang Sword Ball is already an exceedingly rare definitive move, and after Nine Luminaries Unification, it can convert sword light instantly into the most suitable type for the battle, transforming into the advantageous True Qi capable of defeating the enemy, nearly invincible. In theory, Tie Dan can switch sword energy at any time, using Yao Guang Sword Ball to pass through the opponent’s Five Elements Array unscathed.

However, upon stepping into the array, Tie Dan unexpectedly finds himself at a disadvantage.

It turns out that this Five-Colored Team’s tactic relies on each member refining one form of Escape Skill from Taiji Five Qi. Based on the principle of mutual overcoming of Five Qi, they join forces into an array, agile and mobile, shifting positions based on the opponent’s True Qi attribute. For avoiding True Qi Dao Breath depletion, they can rotate based on Five Qi Interdependence rules and exchange Qi mutually, extending indefinitely, which makes them extremely troublesome.
