Beichen Sword Sect's Headmaster's Secret Records

Chapter 202 Sword Tempering Pool

"This Taihua Yeqing Pool was built by opening up the Hengshan Earth Vein and forcing out the Spirit Vein Jade Milk with a secret method. It was originally intended to be used as a sword quenching pool. However, my mountain sword furnace has not yet been forged, and it is still a long way from being ready for sword forging. Therefore, it is okay to lend it to Junior Brother to practice and remove impurities.

It’s just that my Hengshan disciples occasionally come here to practice, so to prevent anyone from accidentally barging in and disturbing my fellow disciples, I will guard outside.”

Ning Lingshuang said so, but it was obvious that she was concerned about her face. After all, Hengshan would not allow Tiedan, an outsider, to walk around everywhere. It was common sense that one of his senior brothers or junior brothers had to accompany him.

It was just that he didn't know if it was an illusion, but Tiedan felt that when Senior Sister Ning heard that he and Shen Jianjia were in a murderous relationship, she immediately felt much more relaxed, as if she really didn't intend to cause him any more trouble...

No, shouldn't we kill him as soon as possible?

Following the other party all the way down the Bailongtan trail, in order to avoid the other party suddenly attacking and killing him, Tiedan thought for a while and said,

"I wonder if Senior Sister knows fellow Taoists Liu Chaoyan and Liu Changqing?"

Ning Lingshuang was stunned.
"Of course I know. They are the two brothers from Tianzhu Peak. They have gone out to gain experience. Do you know them?"

So Tiedan took out his flute, which shone a green light on the ground.
"I once fought demons with two brothers in the Northern Territory. They were harmed by demons and were asked to return the treasure to the Liu family."

Ning Lingshuang nodded. Although she still had no expression, she knew what this meant. Her eyes were slightly sad.

"Is it Immortal Lord Jingtian's flute? The flute belongs to the owner but not to the owner... Junior Brother Tie is so thoughtful. Just focus on healing your wounds. When you are well, I will accompany you to the Liu family."

Well, when this woman suddenly saw the divine treasure, there was not even a single fluctuation in her eyes. Her greed and admiration were probably not fake, she was probably just naturally cold.

Seeing that Senior Sister Ning was not moved by the idea when Tiedan took out the flute to test her, he thought that she was indeed a disciple who was devoted to the Tao like him. So he also put aside his turbo power to prevent his hand from slipping and the flute from hitting her head and cracking it. Then he put away the flute and asked,

"Thank you very much, Senior Sister. Also, I have a friend who is seriously injured and will soon die. I wonder if Hengshan has any elixir that can prolong his life. Can I exchange it for the money to ward off the enemy?"

"Is your life coming to an end? Are you showing signs of premature aging? Major or minor aging? Is your Qi and blood flowing smoothly? Are there any remaining toxins or symptoms?

Junior brother, is this friend you are talking about yourself? If you are sick, you should seek treatment instead of hiding your illness and avoiding seeing a doctor."

Tiedan: "…a female friend."

When Ning Lingshuang heard this, her eyes lit up.

"So Junior Brother already has a Taoist companion, that's great. Ahem, I mean Taoist companion Shou Yuanjiang, we should really pay attention to him. Tell me, tell me in detail."

Tiedan didn't know why she was suddenly so excited, so he told her about Baiyu's illness. The symptoms and cause of the disease were simple anyway. It was caused by fighting monsters and playing the flute too hard.

Ning Lingshuang listened carefully and said,

"So it's because you forcibly controlled the magic weapon and damaged your destiny. That's not difficult. Just replenish your life span and use some plasters to restore your youth. I recommend you exchange it for Hengshan's specialty, Shoucao Huangjing Renginseng Pills.

This ginseng pill cannot be called a top-notch immortal medicine. Each pill digested can increase one's strength by ten years and prolong one's life by ninety-nine and eighty-one years. Although it is only effective after the first dose, if used too much, it can only replenish qi and blood. However, it is enough to solve her problem.

Moreover, this medicine only needs one soldier-repelling coin to exchange for nine pills, and you can carry it with you when you travel around the world to restore souls, prolong life, heal injuries, and break karma. It is very cost-effective. Oh, and you can also prepare some black chicken soup and carp soup for her to nourish her body..."

Uh, Senior Sister Ning is really a kind person with a cold face but a warm heart. When she starts nagging, she's like an old lady...

"Brother, the clothes are at the entrance of the cave. I'll be guarding outside, so no one will disturb me."

"Thank you, senior sister."

Ning Lingshuang kept nagging for a while and only stopped when she took Tiedan to the Taihua Yeqing Pool.

So Tiedan entered the cave by himself, and saw a pool of spiritual spring in the stone room, like a piece of jade. The true breath was lingering, like a fairyland. But there was no other decoration, it looked like it was newly opened.

However, he even dug deep into the mountains and hid underground to find the exit of the spiritual spring, and he is also preparing a sword furnace. It seems that Hengshan is really planning to forge swords himself, which is very expensive and he has great ambitions.

But it would take hundreds of years to forge a sword, and other people's swords were none of Tiedan's business. So he only focused on the spiritual liquid in Taihua Yeqing Pool.

These jade juices from the earth veins carry extremely pure spiritual energy and Taoist aura. The basic principle is to use extremely high concentrations of spiritual energy to change the tendons and cleanse the marrow, and forcibly force out the remnants of the earth springs in the meridians and lungs.

Of course, ordinary people can just meditate and practice Qi by the pool, or steam for a while like taking a sauna. After all, too much spiritual Qi is not good for the human body. Even the most powerful cultivator, once falling into the elixir of the earth veins, will have his essence and blood cells infected by the spiritual Qi, the cells will rupture, the meridians will run wild, the Qi sea will explode, and in the end the whole person may go insane, be melted by the earth veins, and turn into a piece of spiritual stone or jade.

However, Tiedan felt that he should be able to withstand it. He stretched out his hand to try it and found that although the high concentration of spiritual spring would damage the meridians while removing the earth spring, it could also activate the Blood Jade Skill to reshape the Taoist body. As long as he could endure the pain of his Taoist body being repeatedly torn and reshaped, he would be able to recover his skills within a month after soaking for a few days.

Just as he was about to go into the pond, Kun suddenly jumped out and said wait a minute.

So Tiedan looked at what it was going to do.

Then Kun jumped into the pool first, then puffed up his belly, and "Wow!" spit out countless black springs!

Tiedan was dumbfounded.

No! Didn’t you hear that they complained about it being dirty?!

Ning Lingshuang heard the voice outside the cave saying,
"Hmm? Junior brother, are you okay?"

Tiedan was so overwhelmed when he saw Kun vomiting all over the pond.

"It's okay! Uh, I'm fine. I'm just trying to eliminate the remaining toxins in my body. I'm cleaning it out..."

Ning Lingshuang seemed to smell the pungent smell of ink.
"Then I'll stay away and not disturb your meditation."

As soon as she left, Tiedan hurried to fish out Kun, but Kun waved its fins, signaling him not to move.

Then it vomited again, all the way into the Taihua Yeqing Pool. It was divided into two parts, half clear and half turbid, and then it jumped out, half black and half green.

He wiped his mouth, patted his fins, and gave Tiedan a wink, indicating that it was time for him to go down.

Tiedan frowned for a moment. Seeing that it deliberately spit so much into the pool, he could understand its intention. "Could it be that you want me to practice the Earth Spring?"

Kun nodded.

Tiedan asked,
"Which technique should I use to practice?"

Kun pointed at Tiedan.

Tiedan said he didn’t understand.

Kun rolled his eyes at him and spit out a purple bubble. The bubble burst like a muffled thunder hitting Tiedan's temple, and an old roar was heard.

"Idiot! Forge my sword!!"

Forge my sword?
Does this mean that he would use the earth's spring to recast the sword embryo? To refine the sword qi again?

But the ground spring cannot be controlled, and cannot be refined like spiritual energy...

Then Kun rolled his eyes at him, pointed at the inextricable Tai Chi in the pool with its fin, stirred it, and it seemed as if the Tai Chi Yin-Yang fish was spinning in reverse.

So Tiedan understood.

So that’s it! So that’s the reason!

Isn't this the sword washing style?

Since the breath of heaven can be used to forge swords, then the corresponding spring of earth can also be used to forge swords!
It was quite good. The Nine Lights Divine Sword Embryo he had forged before was ultimately created by the True Qi. And the Taiji Spiritual Qi was ultimately the evolution of the Innate Qi.

Since the breath of heaven and the springs of earth are divided into clear and turbid, and one increases while the other decreases, then when there are more springs of earth and less breath of heaven in nature, of course the Taoist method based on the breath of heaven and spiritual energy will be useless.

On the other hand, the underground spring is indeed uncontrollable. However, since the heavenly breath and the underground spring influence each other and blend perfectly, the direction of the underground spring can be controlled by reversely manipulating the heavenly breath.

Just like the sword-washing style, you can draw the opponent's sword into your own sword path, and the twin shadows will interfere with each other. Then you can go against the path of the Nine-Star Sword Embryo and mirror the shadows! Forge my sword embryo!
Good! Wash the sword in the ground spring! Come!

So Tiedan jumped into the pool and practiced between the blue and black Tai Chi, integrating the earth spring water into his meridians.

Although his practice was equivalent to allocating half of his body's Taoist meridians to Diquan for use, his power was at least reduced by half.

But it doesn’t matter!

Originally, Tiedan was twelve plus eight! Twenty pulses had an explosive output! Even if it was weakened by half, it would still work!
What's more, no matter how strong your cultivation is, how powerful your skills are, or how high your realm is, when you meet the Taixu Heavenly Demon, you will be unable to use any of your skills at all. Isn't it all in vain?
Forge! Forge a sword for me!

So, taking advantage of this opportunity of being killed by the demon, Tiedan was refined and recast in the Hengshan Sword Pool.

Kun was also pointing fingers and giving random advice. Basically, he asked Tiedan to take out the heavenly book he had stolen from Dongzhen Taixutian before, and project the runes and secret scrolls that he couldn't read onto the sword embryo.

Tiedan naturally wanted to ask it what the secret spells in the heavenly book were for, but Kun said that he couldn't explain it with just a glance, so he just did it this way, just believe me...

Oh, whatever...

After three days of seclusion, Tiedan sucked all the Qi in his body and the spring water vomited by Kun from the pool to reshape the sword embryo!

So it was cast!
The original Nine Lights Divine Gang Taibai Sword Embryo! After this tempering! It cracked!
Well, the sword embryo leaf, which originally consisted of only one piece, was now divided into half and refined with the help of the earth spring, and it was split into two pieces.

The green leaves were clearly a collection of Dao energy, and flashed with four colored sword beams: purple, white, gold, and red.

As for the black leaf, it was as black as an ink painting, dark as a shadow, and surrounded by smoke, so the tip of the sword could not be seen clearly.

One blue and one black, one virtual and one real, like twin shadows, interdependent, like yin and yang fish, shuttling and circling in Tiedan's palm, forming a Tai Chi ball.

Uh, it looks like some special sword embryo has been refined...

I don't know how powerful this sword will be when it strikes out. Can it be doubled?

"Senior Sister Ning, how about we have a competition?"

So Tiedan walked out of the sword pool and challenged the first person he saw to a fight.

Ning Lingshuang, who had been guarding outside for the past three days, also opened her eyes and looked at Tiedan in a daze.

She felt that this person's cultivation had greatly increased, and his strength was unpredictable. But after all, Tiedan had been seriously injured before, so it was normal for his strength to increase greatly. Moreover, after a closer look, it seemed that he was just the average level of a Xuanmen Jindan Realm disciple, nothing particularly amazing. She was curious about how capable he was, and why Jianjia was so concerned about him, so she nodded.

"Okay, I also want to learn the sword sect's high skills. Junior brother, follow me to the Tianzhu Peak Sword Fighting Arena."

Kun quickly jumped out, winked at Tiedan, and asked him to show mercy and not kill the man with the sword again.

Tiedan: "Again?"

So Kun leaped away again.

"What's wrong, junior brother?"

Seeing Ning Lingshuang looking back, Tiedan said,
"Sister, do you have any way to escape?"

Ning Lingshuang shook her head.
“I haven’t had this opportunity yet.”

Oh, you can’t escape? Then keep some tricks for yourself.

So the two of them did what they said and immediately flew up to Tianzhu Peak to compete.
