Secret Records of the Leader of the Beichen Sword Sect

Tie Dan opened his eyes, looked at the stone wall in front of him, noticed the dust on his robe, and then reached out to touch his face.

Still here.

He stood up, walked out of the empty mountain chamber, and looked up at the lush Nine Yin Peaks, falling silent for a moment.

"Hey, Senior Brother? Are you out of seclusion?"

Jian Jia was still the same, biting into a peach as she jumped down from the tree.

Tie Dan looked at her.

Jian Jia felt slightly uncomfortable being stared at and quickly offered the peach,

"Uh, I came to help you, but I missed... Want a bite? It’s very sweet."

Tie Dan thought for a moment,

"How many days have I been in seclusion?"

This question was simple, and Jian Jia promptly replied,

"Seventy days. I heard you retreated into seclusion after winning Honzan; it’s not much or little, exactly seventy days now."

Seventy days.

That calculates to during the battle at Taixu Palace, just like with the wild boar at Heng Mountain, one sword directly wiped out ten lives, only to escape.

"What’s the matter, Senior Brother? Got something on your mind? How about sharing it with me?"

Jian Jia saw the opportunity and immediately showed concern.

But Tie Dan gave her a look,

"You’re just here eating peaches?"

Jian Jia pouted,

"Lord Yuan eats them, why can’t I..."

Tie Dan couldn’t be bothered with her nonsense,

"Idly indulging, lazing around, if you have time, get to sword practice. Punish you to ten years of not leaving the mountain."

Jian Jia, "... Yes, Sect Leader."

And so Tie Dan flicked his sleeve and transformed into a Sword Rainbow and left.

Go where, of course, still the old place.

"Uh, True Monarch Xuantian? What are you doing here? Seeking some elixir? These Strong Vajra Pills are for animals..."

Watching the Sword Rainbow swoosh—land over, Tie Dan silently arrived and sat down in front while Lingxu, who was busy with alchemy, was inexplicably puzzled.

Tie Dan opened straight with a question,

"Has Daoist Lord ever met the Void Heavenly Demon?"

Lingxu was practically troubled,

"... I know you speak very directly, but could you not be so direct?

Cause and consequence should be explained, at least we need some preamble here?"

Tie Dan nodded,

"That’s reasonable, greetings To the Mystic Sect Leader Daoist Lord."

Lingxu squinted his eyes...

As expected, the next sentence from Tie Dan was,

"Have you seen the Void Heavenly Demon?"

"Ah..."

Lingxu sighed, pressed on his brightness point,

"Let’s say we’ve met a few times..."

Tie Dan’s gaze immediately turned sharp,

"Seen several times this many! And still alive! Truly worthy of being the Mystic Sect Leader! Is there any demon execution method?"

Lingxu chuckled, turned his hand over to produce a tea cup, drank some water to calm himself,

"Heavenly Demons aren’t material from Taiji, oddly shaped, formless and intangible, there’s no real execution method, merely responding to their moves, able to smash to dust, smash to dust, able to disassemble, disassemble, if all fails, find some corner to suppress, and exhaust it to death."

Though these words sound unreliable, Tie Dan didn’t care for his this and that, continued pressing straightforwardly,

"Then when and where did the Lord meet what kind of Heavenly Demon, and suppress where. What kind of Demon Skill, what Divine Skills did the opponent display?

With nothing to do, how about sharing for us to discuss in detail and devise ways to execute demons and protect the Dao together?"

"Who has nothing to do with you, can’t you see I’m busy here..."

Lingxu impatiently fanned at the Pill Furnace, but thinking it over, decided to probe,

"But if the Sect Leader is so concerned, could it be... someone you know in seclusion was harmed by a Heavenly Demon, being possessed?"

Tie Dan directly responded,

"I don’t have other friends."

Lingxu’s shoulders drooped and almost fell over, also unexpected how talking with this kid is so mentally taxing,

"True Monarch Xuantian, what exactly are you trying to do? Don’t tell me there’s a Heavenly Demon descending to the Lower Realm, despite me being someone who attained enlightenment, if something really happened, how could there be no feeling whatsoever."

Tie Dan thought, true, although this guy might be a coward, after all, he’s a Heavenly King under Thunder Ancestor, a millennia-old Daoist, leading the Nine Great Xuan Sects, comprehending the Heavenly Dao Laws, indeed a Daoist Lord...

"What Dao you comprehended, show me."

Lingxu rolled his eyes.

Tie Dan,

"Don’t be stingy, at most I’ll show you my sword."

"Stop it, stop it, you’re going too far now."

Lingxu was helpless, troubled by this kid, made a gesture letting the fan move on its own, stood up and said,

"Let’s consider you want to ask about the Void Heavenly Demon, come with me, I’ll take you to meet the person most proficient with the Void Heavenly Demon..."

Tie Dan quickly shook his head,

"No need, if it’s Master Xuan Du I don’t need to meet."

"Huh??? How do you..."

Lingxu, with such Dao attainments, couldn’t conceal his surprise for a moment, his eyes revealed an unusual color, but after calculating and pondering over, still shook his head and said,

"The Great Mage indeed has immeasurable Dao skills, unparalleled Divine Skills in this world, having dealt with Heavenly Demons for hundreds if not a thousand cases over the years, apparently extremely proficient in this.

Yet, I don’t know his whereabouts, how could I lead you to meet him. I’ll take you to see an old acquaintance, he was once possessed by a Heavenly Demon, later cured, roughly spent many years sharing life with a Heavenly Demon, so if discussing proficiency, probably no one more skilled than him."

Tie Dan was also shocked, quickly followed up,

"Is this true? A Heavenly Demon possession can be cured?"

At the doorway, Lingxu summoned an immortal crane, offered an introductory price for riding a pill,

"Actually can’t be considered cured, but I previously gave him a Jade Pendant, entrusting a part of his soul, this allowed me to arrive in time before he was consumed by the Heavenly Demon, preserving his life.

Moreover, fortunately that Heavenly Demon was only here for fun in the Lower Realm, didn’t bother him, enjoyed decades of earthly prosperity, and after having enough fun, returned on its own."
