Secret Records of the Leader of the Beichen Sword Sect-Chapter 983 - 504: Severing the Corpse (Part 3)

And the fate of that little girl was given to someone else, so if it’s not you, it would be your lame junior brother.

Later on, your junior brother awakened as the reincarnation of the Dharma King, and when you returned alive from Yin Mountain, I guessed that you might be one of my Three Corpses, but probably due to competing in sword fighting with him, you were wounded in the Divine Sense and unable to awaken for a while.

Therefore, later when I helped you to slash Tian Gang and overturn the Nine Yin, it was also within my calculations. But who knew you could win so easily, not even needing to go into seclusion to recuperate, and emerged to face the Mountain Tribulation in just a few months, which was beyond my expectations.

Moreover, you confronted me directly, asking about the Heavenly Demon, making me suspect whether your Primordial Spirit cultivation had gone awry, causing a split mind, having reached the Nascent Soul yet not awakening, and unable to recognize your True Soul essence.

Or perhaps, you are indeed not one of my Three Corpses.

But later I heard that you could even defeat the Emei Seven Monsters, and win a match in Suiyang from my junior brother, and I confirmed it. Even with the Demon Dragon body and my avatar assisting, that tribulation was impossible to pass.

So behind you, there must be others making moves, or some abilities I have never seen before, allowing you to repeatedly cross the tribulation, firmly suppressing my corpse insects and still maintaining your original self.

Since that’s the case, I naturally want to see what you are truly made of, test how much skill you have, and see how capable you truly are."

Lingxu rubbed his hands, turning the heavenly jade crumbs into a Jade Cicada, handing it to Tie Dan.

"You won."

Tie Dan watched the cicada slowly crawling, still flapping its wings, clearly reincarnating again.

"Why give it to me?"

Lingxu chuckled,

"You’ve battered my avatar so much and just left it aside without care? At least ensure its journey to the Nascent Soul to repay the karma."

Tie Dan coldly said,

"None of my business."

Lingxu shook his head and smiled bitterly,

"Truly vengeful... Dignified Sword Master, don’t be so petty. After all, those three hundred talismans were carved by your own hand, every sword wound inflicted by you.

So in sum, it was indeed by your effort that my avatar was defeated. I merely intended to see your genuine skill and tease by keeping my trump card until the end...

Alright, alright, how about this? Ask whatever you want, and I’ll answer everything truthfully, alright?"

Tie Dan looked at him, pondered, and finally spoke,

"You plan to join the corporation, bundle up Cloud Platform Immortal Peak, the Third Void, and the nine major sects, and offer them all to them.

Receive the company’s rewards, become its lackey, and use its resources for cultivation to escape the fate of Taiji’s annihilation.

This is what you call the way to survival, isn’t it?"

Lingxu smiled slightly and said frankly,

"Indeed."

Tie Dan did not get angry, fell silent for a while, and suddenly said,

"Do you believe me when I say I’ve known your plans all along, and that all your schemes will ultimately fail?

Because the Third Void exploded, I saw it with my own eyes, in a dream."

Lingxu gave him a curious look, also fell silent for a moment, nodded slowly,

"So that’s how it is, if you put it that way, I really do believe you.

I always speculated that when you suppressed Tian Gang and annihilated the Sword Sect, it was probably because you attained enlightenment. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

But I thought it was some kind of destructive Sword Dao.

Who knew that what you awakened seems to be some path of seeing the past, perceiving the future, and understanding the way of heaven.

Interesting, interesting, actually in the Immortal Palace, there indeed was a similar prophetic art called the Three Dreams Technique, but it has long been lost..."

That was his reaction, leaving Tie Dan somewhat helpless,

"No, so don’t you understand yet? Your path leads nowhere.

The corporation is unreliable. In sixty years, when Cloud Platform ascends, it will be the time of the Mystic Sect’s annihilation.

So what’s the point of joining?"

But Lingxu laughed,

"No, if what you foresee is truly this scene, then it precisely proves that my path is leading somewhere."

Tie Dan was stunned.

And Lingxu waved his sleeve, revealing a Golden Book,

"This is the River Map and Luo Book, the official contract of the corporation. Rebuilding the Third Void is just an additional requirement; integrating the Mystic Sect is their true plan.

Their upper echelons, those called the board of directors, have already decided. In future plans, the Mystic Sect will become a selectable faction for the customer players.

And not only that, perhaps feeling that people like us from the mountains are too powerful, they want to incorporate the entire nine major sects.

In the future, the Taiji World will be developed and operated as the main plane. Once mountain men join, they can receive the company’s salary, become high-level thugs, or participate in biological experiments, humanoid weapons, or whatever, spread across All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, and be greatly accomplished, never again to be confined to the fish tank of Taiji Heaven.

And as long as I agree to cooperate with their script, unify the Mystic Sect, and rebuild the Void, I can become a formal member of the corporation, continue as the Supreme of Taixu, Leader of the Mystic Sect, freely traversing All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds. Not to mention tons of Immortal Silk, what wouldn’t I have?"

Before Tie Dan could process and react to this information, Lingxu laughed,

"Of course, I am a dignified Daoist Lord, how could I just obediently follow these mortals’ orders and hand over the Mystic Sect to their control?

So I have already set up hidden moves, to destroy both Taixus after the handover is complete.

But this Peng Ju corpse of mine is like a parasite in my stomach. If they join the corporation too and betray my secrets, I cannot rest easy, they must be eliminated.

Now that this matter is done by you, and you also see that my plan will succeed, I can finally be at ease."

Tie Dan glared at him,

"Why?"

"Why? Isn’t it a simple truth."

Lingxu, with his hands behind his back, smiled with narrowed eyes,

"Rarity makes value. The corporation doesn’t need that many Mystic Sects."
