Chapter 806 - 421: Iron Sword Divine Nun (Part 2)
A flash of ice light, and Tie Dan slowly walked out from the chilling wind and Ice Qi, his gaze piercing through the ice crystal, sweeping directly over Ci Yun’s body,
"As I expected, Xiaoyao Dao is best at harvesting others’ Qi for self-benefit.
Although the Nine Heavens Extreme Cloud Flash technique is extraordinarily dazzling, it consumes too much True Breath. You have not yet reached Divinity Transformation, and are bound to borrow nature’s spiritual energy, or even steal my Dao Power.
But unfortunately, I’ve already seen through this trick and laid the Xuanming Ice Breath secretly throughout the world.
How does it feel to have this Xuanming Xuanji Ice Qi inside you, reversing your meridians, piercing your bones with ice spikes, and chilling your heart? Not too bad, right?"
At this moment, Ci Yun had already been frozen into half an ice sculpture, her mouth and nose frozen, her breath frosty, and her eyebrows and hair covered with a layer of snow, clearly heavily injured by a single palm strike.
Knowing there’s no way out now, she gritted her teeth and spat,
"Demon Path! Kill me or cut me, just do it!"
Tie Dan paused, his gaze becoming sharp,
"To kill you is as easy as turning over a hand, but you still have use, so I’m giving you a chance. Quickly, summon a Heavenly Demon to have a look."
Ci Yun laughed bitterly,
"Do you think you can bully and torture a member of the Xiaoyao Sect at will? If you want to kill then kill, I’d rather bite my tongue to die, cutting off my meridians, than let my purity yield to you!"
Tie Dan grew impatient,
"I’ll say it again, I don’t want your body, nor your life, I just want you to summon a Heavenly Demon for a look!
Your cultivation is about summoning Heavenly Demons, isn’t it? What’s so hard about it? Just summon!"
Ci Yun closed her eyes, turning her head,
"Since you will surely kill me, why should I obey your will!"
Tie Dan flashed forward, forcibly turning her face back, revealing a fierce gleam,
"I’ll say it one last time, either summon the Heavenly Demon yourself and I’ll spare you and your master-disciple line.
Or I’ll peel off your skin, open your brain, and find what I want myself.
If I can’t find it, I’ll hunt down your entire Carefree Lineage, and let’s see who can stop me!
Choose!"
Hearing the words ’master and disciple’, Ci Yun finally opened her eyes, biting her lip and glaring at Tie Dan for a while,
"...Fine."
Since she conceded, Tie Dan no longer made things difficult, loosening his grip and sweeping his sleeve to collect all the ice flows, signaling her to begin her performance.
Although all the Ice Qi had melted, Ci Yun was still heavily injured with cracked bones, her calves below the knees completely crushed into bloody foam. Her entire body was soaked through by the melted Xuanming Ice Qi, the ragged monk’s robe clinging tightly to her body’s curves, the clearly visible flesh underneath depicting trembling alabaster curves in the cold wind, her pitiable suffering expression profoundly moving.
Tie Dan grew impatient,
"Stop dawdling, hurry up!"
Forced by this cruel person, Ci Yun had no choice but to sigh inwardly at the wrongful fate, living in the Jianghu, unable to control one’s own path, today she would have to concede, thus silently weeping, she undid her tattered monk robe, looking over with teary eyes...
Tie Dan,
"What?"
Seeing this scoundrel still demanded her to say it herself, Ci Yun was both ashamed and angry, begrudgingly prostrating,
"This method requires prior union, utmost leisure, Divine Soul flies out, reaching the Peak of Jiuxiao, only the howling chants can attract the Heavenly Demon to descend...
Willing to offer my body, please have pity..."
Tie Dan understood, frowning,
"So troublesome, but it is indeed the way of Xiaoyao Dao... wait a moment, let me go fetch the scholar."
"No!"
Hearing this guy not only coerced her like this but even wanted to watch from the side, Ci Yun was both ashamed and indignant, suppressing her anger she said,
"The Primordial Spirit Technique, must be discreet, it’s a secret manual for a True Inheritor! How can there be so many idle people watching!
Besides, I’ve never tried the Heavenly Demon summoning method! If something goes wrong, my Dao Body will be seized by the Heavenly Demon, leading to my soul’s destruction!
If you really want to see the Heavenly Demon, then dual cultivate with me, let the Primordial Spirit emerge! I’ll lead you to the Peak of Jiuxiao to witness it!"
Tie Dan sneered,
"What a good plan you have, leading me along for the ride. What if at that time you bring the Heavenly Demon to me, and take the chance to harm my Primordial Spirit, wouldn’t I be overturned in a ditch."
Ci Yun was almost crying from anger,
"I cultivated bitterly under the Green Lamp, wasn’t it you who insisted on witnessing the Heavenly Demon to barge in and cause trouble! Who are you calling a ditch!"
Tie Dan doesn’t believe her, continuing to calculate the fortune of risks. He knows well enough how dangerous the emergence of the Primordial Spirit is, how perilous the Outer Heaven Demon can be. It’s not just a matter of risking one life, but rather a chance for all beings ten times over. It’s crucial to be cautious.
"Fine, bring me the Leisure Daoist Collection to see."
Ci Yun was taken aback,
"You, you want to learn?"
Tie Dan impatiently replied,
"Nonsense, how else am I going to soar to the peak of Jiuxiao?"
Ci Yun blushed,
"Then, it’s not necessary to learn in order to... Isn’t it that you see my Leisure Sect as Demon Path, forbidding your disciples from teaching us Demon Path by your sects?"
Tie Dan was unconcerned,
"I am not a disciple, but the Sect Leader."
"Hmm, you are a Nascent Soul cultivator, also a..."
Ci Yun suddenly froze,
"Wait, which mountain’s Sect Leader?"
Tie Dan impatiently threw the Sect Leader Jade Token to her.
"This is the Beichen Sword Sect Xuantian Sect Leader of Nine Yin Mountain. As long as you hand over the Leisure Lineage Daoist Collection and assist me in obtaining the Heavenly Demon, I will spare your life. My words are irreversible."
Ci Yun stared blankly at the Jade Pendant,
"The Sect Leader of the Sword Sect, the head of Nine Luminaries Sword Pavilion, why not use sword energy..."
Tie Dan chuckled,
"With your meager skill, you’d hardly warrant me using sword energy."
Ci Yun was momentarily lost in thought, mumbling to herself,
"Sword Sect... the Sect Leader of the Sword Sect... well, perhaps it’s not impossible..."
"GRAAH——!"
At this moment, a crane cawed in the sky, looking far away, it was a millennium-old crane catching a century-old scholar flying back.
Tie Dan had no interest in continuing to waste time with her,
"This can’t work, that can’t work. Suit yourself then, summon a Heavenly Demon with this person..."
"No, don’t!"
Ci Yun was startled, suddenly lunged forward to hug Tie Dan’s leg,
"I am willing! I am willing! I am willing to offer up the Daoist Collection to the Sect Leader! I beg you to accept me!"
Tie Dan was shocked by her reaction, almost slapped her head impulsively, until he suddenly saw the other person’s delicate lips slightly part, revealing a fragrant tongue rolling, spewing out a Jade Cicada, and handed it over still empowered, swiftly taking the moist and sparkling Jade Cicada from her tongue.
Ci Yun opened her eyes wide, gently rubbing her cheek against Tie Dan’s leg, sighing coquettishly,
"Sect Leader, my Leisure Lineage has a single successor, my master’s Primordial Spirit resides in this jade, the inheritance method of Carefree Cloud Riding Palace also lies within. By Nascent Soul Emergence, one enters the jade for transmission.
Yet, this girl’s talent is dim, a hundred years of arduous cultivation, unable to fully master the Leisure Daoist Collection, thus unable to send the master to reincarnation.
Today, Sect Leader’s golden words offer a lifeline for my master and disciple, how could this girl dare to conceal?
I am willing to fully offer the true inheritance of the Carefree Cloud Riding Palace, if only I could be sheltered under the Sect Leader’s protection."
Tie Dan found it inexplicable,
"Why did you suddenly change your demeanor, weren’t you firm just now?"
Ci Yun spoke softly,
"Sect Leader may not know, the Nine Yin Sword Sect was originally a part of my Dragon Temple lineage, but years ago they conspired with Hu Temple, treacherously backstabbed, destroying my entire Leisure Sect.
My Leisure disciples have vowed that whoever can annihilate the Sword Sect will be revered as our Nine Heavens Leisure Immortal Lord!
We’ve long heard of Sword Master Xuantian’s youth and promise, unparalleled sword power, exterminating the entire Sword Sect, indeed a rare Daoist for a millennium! Yet, always in closed cultivation in the mountains, unable to meet.
You have already slain the traitors of my sect, willingly revitalizing my Leisure Great Dao, serving under your feet, indeed my lifelong desire! Please, my Lord, accept me!"
Tie Dan was suspicious and cautious, although calculating seemed without issue, he still warned,
"Even if you spout nonsense, it won’t help, once I comprehend the Leisure Cultivation Skill, I will ascend to the peak of Jiuxiao, capturing the Heavenly Demon, don’t hope to escape."
Ci Yun made a push-up motion, thrusting out her chest confidently, revealing a winning posture,
"Yes, obediently follow the master’s orders! I will exert all efforts to assist you in reaching the peak of Jiuxiao!"
