Secret Records of the Leader of the Beichen Sword Sect-Chapter 271 - 233 Moon Slashing

Tie Dan was startled in his heart, watching from a distance as smoke and flames rose from Star Square. From afar he heard the booming roar, as if mountains were collapsing, and the sky was crashing down. With a quick calculation, he knew that Shen Jianjia was in trouble, likely facing dire peril.

They had come this time to seek the enemy who harmed their master, both knowing that a calamity of death could not be avoided, and they were already prepared to die. That mad woman was no match for the enemy, which was not unexpected.

Yet Tie Dan couldn’t help but be puzzled.

It doesn’t make sense... Why not come after him instead?

After several days of no progress, he naturally suspected that the enemy was sinister and patient. As long as they acted together, outsiders could secretly protect them and would never easily reveal themselves.

Therefore, if they didn’t take risks and expose some fatal flaws to give the opponent a chance to attack, the enemy would never take the bait.

That’s why he took the initiative to muddy the waters, even shouting rebellion after killing officials, and slaughtered so many officials and nobles. He even deliberately battled with some trash, displaying a lot of unusual skills. If that’s not showing sincerity in fishing, what is?

But who would have thought that the scoundrel would abandon him and go after that mad woman instead?

It doesn’t make sense. If Tie Dan himself had a vendetta, why would he care about that mad woman’s life or death?

After all, between the two of them, one achieved Golden Core Peak in two years, slaying Nascent Soul Martial Gods with a single sword. Truly, a person destined for greatness in thirty years. Such an opponent, if not eliminated now, could it be tolerated later?

The other one, however, is nothing more than a fool who even attracts onlookers while washing his feet. Isn’t it clear what’s more important here? Why bother killing a wastrel first, alerting him to be on guard?

Can’t figure it out...

Tie Dan frowned, stopping his calculations. With a thought, he retracted ’Shadow’ and wasn’t in a hurry to make his escape or intend to save anyone.

Because if it were truly the enemy acting, there wouldn’t be time to save the mad woman anyway, and at most, he could collect her corpse. And if it weren’t the enemy, just a random passerby, dying in such an ordinary calamity means they were a useless waste, unworthy of pity.

Therefore, Tie Dan first used the Blood Jade Technique to heal his injured shoulder, then sheathed the Xuanwu Sword, swirling the Heavenly Ruin Sword Qi around his body and transforming it into an Ice Blue Moon Wheel that jumped out from behind his head. He then used the newly refined Innate Taiyin Sword Light to transform, activating the illusion of the Jidu Sword Radiance, and his entire form dissolved into a blue light in the moonlight, slowly disappearing.

Yes, Tie Dan’s Divine Skill Minor Achievement brought a qualitative change, not just the familiar transformation of the Heavenly Ruin Sword Qi’s Five Luminaries, much more than merely zero-cost sword escape!

Now the Heavenly Ruin Sword Qi Five Luminaries can transform freely with little energy cost! Even the "Shadowless, Formless, Traceless, and Formless Sword Qi" can be employed! Many secret killing techniques from the "Beichen Killing Sword" can now be executed!

Then, seizing the moment with the moon hanging high, Tie Dan directly used the Taiyin Sword Light to transform into the Jidu Hidden Star, instantly executing the Jidu Sword Shadow!

As long as he stands under the moon’s glow, he can vanish into thin air! Shadowless, Formless, Traceless, Formless!

Beichen Killing Sword. Moon Slashing!

Tie Dan stealthily used the sword technique to conceal himself, quickly stealthily escaping... Though the cost was extremely low, the Jidu Yao was not yet thoroughly refined, and the Formless Sword Qi transformation efficiency was still too low. Also, he had to cover himself with sword energy to reflect moonlight, so real escape wasn’t possible; he could only stride across the moonlight and run quickly.

But it didn’t matter, as he couldn’t simply fly away wildly now, since the gathered crowd had grown too large.

Indeed, as if stirred by the flapping wings of a butterfly... Hmm, this metaphor is too cliché, let’s try again.

It’s like setting off a firecracker in a cesspit, waking the flies, mosquitoes, and beetles. The sea of filth churned and rolled, spreading a foul stench far and wide.

As Tie Dan swept through the three Star Squares, wrecking four or five streets, the Three Constellations Imperial City slowly awoke from its slumber, gradually revealing its sinister core.

Glancing up, he saw escape lights whirling in the sky, clouds of Qingyun, residual clouds flying, and flowers of Luoying scattered. From all directions, Heavenly Thunder and Fire, thunderbolt glows danced, armor gleaming brilliantly. Six clouds gathered from beyond the sky, forming a Killing Formation. Amidst the radiance and mist, drums thundered, and cries for battle arose. Who knows how many forces were hidden, how many Immortal Soldiers were cloaked. This peril lay hidden, making one’s heart tremble with fear.

This formation clearly wasn’t just a casual patrol of the Six Gates, nor ordinary sentries, likely involving some gold medal thugs, Double Flower Red Sticks, special forces units.

Besides the regular appearance of troops, many cultivators were flying through the sky, converging from all directions, soaring on clouds and mist, riding tigers and deer, controlling swords and flying boats, practicing the Method of Heaven and Earth, riding winds with their Primordial Spirits. One after another, they appeared in Heaven or hid their tracks, converging to face the calamity.

Granted, most still wouldn’t dive into this muddy water as Tie Dan had calculated, but the Three Constellations, as the world’s core, had no shortage of those with ulterior motives, or nothing better to do, coming to join the commotion.

This is why Tie Dan’s calamity was pushing to the outer circle; the location was too remote, and even the rank was low, just the Golden Core Realm. So, the experts would disdain it and wouldn’t bother to come.

However, when Tie Dan truly displayed some techniques beyond reason, zero-cost chaotic escape across the sky, consecutively face-killing several Nascent Soul Level minnows, the attention of those illustrious figures naturally got drawn over once again.
