Secret Records of the Leader of the Beichen Sword Sect-Chapter 296 - 241: Facing the Mountain Tribulation_2

Currently, within the borders of Qianzhou lies the territory of the Mystic Sect, a stronghold for cultivators, with Immortal Mountains everywhere, and Taoist temples scattered around. Everyone belongs to the same sect, and the surroundings of the Spiritual Spring Earth Vein have long been occupied. Various cultivation families, porridge stalls, and Yizhuang can be seen everywhere, providing places for Mystic Sect disciples to rest, exchange resources, discuss Dao, and form partnerships.

Of course, if you insist on sword fighting, that’s fine too, provided both parties agree, have similar realms, or have a life and death grievance. Moreover, with so many eyes watching, surrounded by same sect members, one cannot resort to really crude tricks. If you insist on fighting to the death, take it outside Qianzhou.

The two took shelter at the Yizhuang, and Wu Di consumed the Spiritual Qi pills he prepared to regulate his breathing and nourish Qi, while Tie Dan, having no need for this, went out to chat with the old Taoist who guarded the Yizhuang.

This old Taoist wasn’t really a person of the Mystic Sect but had admired Immortals since childhood. He traveled over mountains and through woods, coming to these remote mountains to cultivate earnestly in pursuit of immortality. Unfortunately, he lacked talent and immortal fate, and could never enter Immortal Mountain. The sympathetic nearby Mystic Sect mages taught him some life-extending and breathing control techniques, and he worked in the Yizhuang handling corpses, cleaning, and sanitation.

Having mingled in the mountains for a long time, the old Taoist had seen many strange dead ones and felt no displeasure at Tie Dan’s appearance. He was also delighted to exchange cultivation knowledge with the mountain folk.

Tie Dan brought out two Power Pills and Healing Elixirs for trade, and the old Taoist offered meat buns and his homemade apricot blossom wine as hospitality. The two chatted while eating about the recent major events outside the mountains.

The major event was that the Immortal Palace has bowed down.

According to the agreement made by Chief Lingxu and the Taiwei Three Dukes, the Immortal Palace offered a huge amount of Heavenly Materials Treasures as tribute to the Mystic Sect, finally exchanging for King Nan’s old life. From now on, the Southern Country’s cultivation world is governed by Heng Mountain, and matters of the south are limited to the extent of: you yourself go hunt down Mixed Cultivation Demon Path, but do not chop down this Immortal Palace anymore. And the Mystic Sect also promised to send some aid to the north as appropriate, to help the Immortal Palace suppress the rebel army and Demon Sect.

Of course, the Immortal Palace wouldn’t publicly announce such a surrender agreement; only a small part of the Three Constellations knows. Officially, they still claim that the Immortal Army has achieved great victories, like a bamboo split, they have already suppressed and eliminated the rebellion, recovered the Southern Country, invited back the clan, and the army will soon advance north, competing with the rebel army for Genzhou, and reclaiming Kan Country, etc.

Overall, this time the Mystic Sect made quite a gain. Not only did they not suffer any real damage, but led by Heng Mountain, the factions in the south also taught the Immortal Palace a lesson, looted a wave, controlled the southern cultivation world, and met all their demands. They agreed to temporarily cease the war, according to the previous Cloud Platform resolution of the nine major sects, dispatch Tribulation Disciples north to train, supporting the northern Mystic Sect, striking the Zhongshan rebel army, taking advantage of the situation in Kan and Gen to seize land and expand their turf.

So for someone like Tie Dan who is a ’rebellious disciple’, he was originally going to be punished to face the wall for three to five years, but now the Mystic Sect is in need of cannon fodder, no, it’s just the time to use people, and Core Formation Cultivators are a rare combat power. So, after a symbolic three-month incarceration, it seems Wu Di also recently formed his core and was released, and they directly teamed them up to head north for tribulation training.

Just as Tie Dan and the old Taoist were chatting happily, suddenly there was a "boom!" thunderclap from outside the house. They both peeked out at the sound, Wu Di was also interrupted from his breathing regulation, and flew out. They saw two glows tangled and struggling in the woods, chasing and fleeing, heading towards the Yizhuang.

Oh, it turns out it’s just the daily fighting and killing of the Mystic Sect.

The three of them watched from the side, seeing the two glows fight for a while, quickly deciding the winner. The losing glow fell, rolling out a person, rushing towards the Yizhuang and shouted,

"Fellow Daoists, help me!"

The pursuer seemed to see the people here, not rushing to approach, holding a Five Thunder Talisman, pinching the formula ready, and shouted from outside the villa,

"Dog thief! Come out and face your death quickly! Stop being a disgrace!"

Oh, a personal vendetta...

The ’dog thief’ said,

"Fellow Daoists, do not be deceived by him! This man is from the Demon Sect! He even wants to force me to join the Demon Sect!"

Hmm?

’The Demon Sect one’ was furious,

"Bullshit! You took advantage when I was in seclusion to sleep with my wife and still falsely accuse me of being Demon Sect!? I’ll skin you alive and send you to the Demon Sect!"

Oh, is that so...

The dog thief said,

"Fellow Daoists, please believe me! He is truly a Demon Sect spy, trying to recruit my Junior Sister! When my Junior Sister refused, he killed her! He even wants to kill me too!"

Wu Di calculated with his fingers and suddenly felt as if both were telling the truth, unable to discern the authenticity, frowning involuntarily.

Tie Dan asked,

"So his wife is your Junior Sister? How did you hear them whispering? Were you hiding in the closet or under the bed?"

Dog thief, "..."

The old Taoist laughed, "That indeed deserves a beating."

The Demon Sect one was so angry his nose was crooked,

"Dog thief! Stealing my wife and ruining my reputation! See if I don’t tear you apart! Call forth the lightning!"

"Boom!"

Then that person raised a hand and struck! Heavenly Thunder descended! A thunder struck Wu Di on the chest!

Well, since he had the highest cultivation, was tall and robust, with a long sword, and looked impressive...

"Poof!"

Wu Di never thought that this thunder would strike him, thinking he was just a bystander! Neglected in a moment! Unprepared! Struck by a thunderbolt in the chest! Flew back, his face scorched, spitting blood, half-dead!

The old Taoist, "Eh?"

And the dog thief suddenly leaped up! Flying assault! Tossing knife winds gathering in the palm, coming straight at Tie Dan and them with a chop!

Honestly, Tie Dan didn’t expect the law and order of Qianzhou to be so poor, that these two dared to kill in the Mystic Sect’s territory, but being battle-hardened, he responded calmly, hugging his arms, holding his sword, lifted a foot and kicked, sending out a blow of Heavenly Ruin Sword Qi!
