Chapter 313 - 247 Xingxuan
Meanwhile, while optimizing the Lightning Sword, Tie Dan entered the secret realm of the Xingxuan Sect for training.
This was a legacy left by the Xingxuan Ancestor for the disciples of his own sect, naturally focused on teaching with trials being secondary. It shouldn’t be too dangerous, otherwise, if it killed all the disciples, wouldn’t it cut off the legacy?
However, as it was ultimately the secret realm of the Mystic Sect, it had to maintain its dignity. Passing three trials after arriving was customary.
The first trial was a bronze gate that required one to push open the door by themselves, assessing physical fitness. One had to have at least some power; mortals shouldn’t stir up trouble here.
The second was an entire piece of Mutton Fat Jade Wall, which required activation with True Qi to reveal the hidden passage within the jade wall, allowing one to pass through by crossing the wall. Without Golden Core Realm Qi Refining Cultivation, it was naturally impassable.
The third was a stone lion magical beast, which required battling as a test of comprehensive qualities. Of course, this stone lion adjusted its challenge based on the person. If a Nascent Soul True Man attempted it, it wouldn’t dare move an inch while sitting there.
With nothing much to say, after three or five quick hits, Tie Dan dealt with the lion and passed the three trials, exiting the secret realm path, finally reaching the true place of trials as the view opened up.
Heading towards the Qi Observation Temple, this Cave Heaven was a whole stretch of mountains and forests, with mountains, rivers, and trees; there were three paths to choose from. Looking out, a glow enveloped everything, mist was dense, clearly hindered by Illusion Technique, forcing disciples to rely solely on arithmetic to leave.
Naturally, stone slabs were erected at the cave entrance, providing a pile of arithmetic problems and hints on how to pass, clearly aiming to educate through entertainment, guiding disciples in arithmetic. The Ancestor probably enjoyed this, but whether the disciples find joy in it was another matter...
