Beichen Sword Sect's Headmaster's Secret Records

Chapter 259 Fox
Inside the Xingxuan Temple Sutra Library, a young man in a single layer of clothing opened his glass-colored eyes and stared expressionlessly at the top of the pavilion and the star tracks hanging in the sky.

Xuantian... No, now I should call him Tiedan...

So Tiedan sat up and looked at his body.

After recovery, his Taoist body has returned to normal, neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin, and has returned to being the iron egg in the Swallow Cave in Guangxia Mountain.

It seems that the elixir that can change fate and extend life for a thousand years is indeed true and is somewhat useful.

Then he looked down and saw his two peach wood swords lying on the ground, and a letter written in blood.

It was a letter Chen Xuantian left for him.

Well, the elixir can certainly change one's fate, but the fundamental reason why the body and mind can be restored to health is that Tiedan was in the state of Yuanshen this time and revived, repairing his Yuanshen and sleeping well for three months. This made him physically and mentally healthy, strengthened his Taoism, and restored his original Taoism body.

Yes, starting from the moment it was thrown into the alchemy furnace, it was boiled for eighty-one days. Then Chen Xuantian came out to save the situation, killed everyone in sight, was reborn in blood, and reshaped his body to revive. It has been three months in total.

Because Tiedan's soul had been undergoing self-repair for the past three months, he fell into a deep sleep and had no external memory. So Chen Xuantian realized that he was about to revive, so he left a blood letter, giving some brief updates on what had happened and the new version of the Tao body.

Of course, it was also thanks to the trap set by the immortals and Taoist priests, who left behind three ancient exotic beasts, a thousand-year-old dog demon that had almost cultivated into a human, and a group of Xuanmen brothers and sisters who were willing to sacrifice their lives, cooperate sincerely, and fight to the death, which helped to turn the situation around.

But to be honest, the reason he was able to survive this time was mainly thanks to Chen Xuantian.

That guy not only cultivated this Taoist body to perfection, mastered the three swords of wind, thunder and fire, and dissolved the sword mark between his eyebrows, refined this Taoist body to perfection, but also helped him to refine a Blood God's inner elixir in the Divine Court.

So now Tiedan's Taoist body not only has the Chisha Zixia Shengang Xuanming, but also has perfected the cultivation of the four Taoist methods, so he can transcend the calamity and form a baby at any time. Even the Blood Jade Skill has been cultivated to a small degree, so he can move like a blood shadow at any time, fly his soul out of his body, and be reborn as the Blood God Son.

This guy, is he so reliable when doing things... And it seems that there is more to it than that...

Tiedan untied his Taoist robe and looked down at his chest. He saw countless runes and secret symbols carved on his body with sword strokes, sealing and prohibiting. Countless secret spells and talismans spread from his meridians, locking a blood seal on his heart.

This seal is...

Tiedan followed the instructions written in blood on the ground, made some hand gestures, stretched out his hand, and placed his thumb on the blood mark on his heart. Then he saw a blurry bloody figure appear in front of him.

"... Reverend Dongfang, you are still alive. You are really troublesome."

Blood Shadow said coldly,

"Kid! Where did that guy go? Call him out!"

Tiedan: “……?”

Blood Shadow gnashed his teeth.
"How despicable! He's ruthless! He actually used the method I taught him to deal with me! Call him out! Call him out!"

Ferritin glanced at him.

But it's no wonder that this guy is unhappy. Judging from this restriction, the Blood Shadow Remnant Soul was not only captured and sealed, but also became a shield for Tiedan like a heart-protecting mirror, able to block a blow from his soul magic...

Blood Shadow suppressed his anger.

"Don't be so complacent! You think you've got an advantage. I tell you, you're in big trouble! That guy can reverse my Heavenly Demon Blood Release Technique! Even if his soul was blown apart, he can still be brought back! This is really unheard of. His attainments in the Yuanshen aspect are far higher than yours!
Once my soul is scattered and I am no longer restrained, he will definitely take over your body! Why don’t we join forces to get rid of him? Wait a minute..."

Tiedan waved his hand to terminate the communication with Xueying, then looked at the blood letter and recalled it, feeling a little strange for a moment.

The Heavenly Demon Blood Release Method... He doesn't know how to do it...

Was he seriously injured and fell asleep at that time? Or did Chen Xuantian hide this part of his memory? It seems that his talent in Yuanshen Fa is really not bad...

But it doesn't matter anymore. Tiedan is fine and won't die of blood loss anyway. Besides, he is devoted to swordsmanship and has no energy to be distracted by other evil ways. After all, his own Tiancan Sword Qi is not enough to make it through now, and he has wasted too much time.

I have been trapped in Xingxuan Sect for at least three months. If we count the three months I was imprisoned at the bottom of Jiuyin Mountain before that, more than half a year has passed in the blink of an eye. All the time has been wasted. If I don't hurry up, all the monsters in the north will be killed. I should get out of seclusion as soon as possible...

Then Tiedan looked up at the magic weapon in the sky, and immediately understood what was going on. He saw through the orbit of the stars in the sky at a glance...

Uh, that guy Chen Xuantian, who has nothing to do as his guardian, has already taken the opportunity to learn the Xingxuan secret. He is quite capable.

So Tiedan didn't waste any time, cleaned up the garbage on the ground, then flew up to the starry sky, reached out to pick the stars, and successfully left the retreat!
Wrapped in the bright starlight, rushing at lightning speed, the world turned upside down, and moved in an instant, Tiedan flew out of the starry secret realm in a blink of an eye, like a falling meteor, falling into the mountains, into a secluded valley.

Looking around, the exit of this secret realm is clearly a meteorite crater, but now there is an altar paved with stones at the bottom of the crater, and a magic circle-like altar has been built. There are also formations and barriers arranged by cultivators outside. It seems that some meteorite fell from the sky in the past and was seen by the ancestor Xuanxing, so he had some enlightenment and it became the secret realm of the Xingxuan Sect.

Then Tiedan looked down at the magic weapon in his hand. Well, strictly speaking, it was a magic weapon.

This is a trapezoidal iron box, which is also an iron cover. The box refers to the ancient quiver, which is now used to hold precious objects such as jewelry and letters. There are also jade hooks and some exotic animal skins wrapped around the iron box.

Recalling the inheritance that Chen Xuantian had read carefully in recent days, Tiedan identified that this item was the Falling Treasure Meteor Box made by the ancestor Xingxuan using meteorite iron that fell from the sky.

This meteorite is from outer space with peculiar properties. None of the five Qi of Tai Chi can invade it. The alloy from outer space is extremely hard and can only be cut by the refined divine weapon black iron. It also blocks divine consciousness and cannot be controlled by spiritual Qi.

So the Xingxuan Patriarch covered the meteorite with animal skin, matched it with a jade hook, made it into a meteor box and carried it with him, using it as a treasure-dropping object. When fighting with others, he would calculate the trajectory of the opponent's magic weapon and flying sword, throw the meteor box out to cover it, and directly block the person's Yuanshen signal, so that he could "drop" the person's magic weapon...

Damn, no wonder you can get so many magic weapons, I guess they were all picked up by you like this...

Even though this Meteor Box is not very useful and is just a one-for-one exchange thing, it is probably quite useful against people from the Xuanmen, especially those opponents who have refined a magical weapon. Once the chassis is covered by the Meteor Box, all their abilities will be reduced by half.

Having obtained a very useful magic weapon, Tiedan naturally had nothing to complain about. He bowed his head to thank the Xingxuan Patriarch, and then left the forbidden area and went out of the valley. From a distance, he saw a Taoist temple surrounded by mountains. He knew that it was probably the Zisun Temple of Xingxuan Sect in Mount Xingshan.

After all, he had inherited someone else's legacy, and Tiedan couldn't just fly over someone's head and lose. So he went into the temple, intending to say hello to fellow apprentice Meng Yuzhang and offer him a glass of wine or something.

However, when he reached the outside of Xingxuan Temple, Tiedan stopped.

Smells of blood.

As soon as you get out of the customs, you start killing people...

Tiedan said loudly,
"Wu Di, a disciple of the Sword Sect, has come to visit his colleagues from the Xingxuan Sect! Please invite Senior Brother Meng to come and meet him!"

After shouting three times with no one responding, Tiedan blamed everyone, drew out his two peach wood swords, and leaped into the temple.

Well, they are all dead.

The Xingxuan Sect was massacred, literally covered in blood and flesh. All the disciples were killed, their stomachs were cut open, their limbs were cut off, and their skins were peeled off. Only a pile of flesh and blood was left. They were all thrown in the main hall of the temple, in front of the jade statue of Xuannv, wailing and bleeding, and died after being humiliated.

It was someone from the Divine Religion who did the deed, because even the jade statue of Xuannu was damaged in the same way, with its hands and feet chopped off and cut into human sticks, and its face was also chopped off and carved with random strokes, leaving a hideous ghost face.

This is also the custom of destroying mountains and temples in this world. If they come to your door, they will kill everyone. Naturally, they will destroy your lineage and end your ancestral worship. But if they really dare to attack the statue of Xuannv, probably even the people of the Immortal Palace don’t have such courage, only the Divine Religion can do it.

Tiedan carefully examined the bodies and found a sword wound on the back of one of the bodies. It was clearly Yuanjiu, a disciple of Xingxuan Sect who had fought with him before. After counting with his fingers, he knew that these people had been dead for about three months.

It seems that it was because of my interference that they lost an opportunity, so those who failed to enter the secret realm were robbed and died here, even losing their lives.

No wonder the Xingxuan Patriarch left behind his legacy. In the battle for the immortal path, we cannot give in even a little bit...

The Xingxuan Sect was destroyed.

After they got to know each other, Tiedan found a flat place in the temple to bury everyone, then closed the mountain gate, cast a few talismans to prevent wild animals from breaking in and destroying the bodies, and then escaped to the nearby jungle temple to report the news.

As a result, the Jungle View here was also destroyed...

Naturally, it was also the work of the Divine Religion. All the monks in the temple were killed and the temple was razed to the ground. Only a hellish scene of corpses, blood, broken limbs and arms remained.

Tiedan was silent for a moment. He walked along the wall of Jungle Temple and around the magic circle. Then he turned his head and looked at the yard, which was filled with graves.

"come out."

Then a fox came out from underground, but it had not yet transformed and had a fox head. It was not the one that Tiedan had bargained with before.

"Killing people and eating their corpses, how brave you are."

"Please spare my life, Immortal! This is not a small matter!"

The fox clearly felt that he was being targeted by a murderous intent, so he quickly knelt down and kowtowed, while taking out a gold medal from his bosom and holding it above his head, "We are a spiritual race that has lived here for generations in Qianzhou. We have been granted special favors by the head of the Xuan Sect, and are responsible for guarding the tombs and collecting the remains of the immortals. Even mortals dare not harm us, let alone the disciples of the Xuan Sect."

"Haha, I don't dare to harm you..."

Tiedan took a closer look and found that the death-free gold medal was indeed a genuine treasure. The Taoist power contained in the handwriting was indeed valuable. It probably said that the Hu family had converted to the right path and as long as they did not kill innocent people or commit crimes, the disciples of Xuanmen would spare their lives. However, the "First Seat" inscribed at the end was not the world's number one Taoist Lingxu, but the previous head of the sect, the great master Xuandu.

The town has been sealed for a thousand years, no wonder the monster can come and go freely without arousing suspicion...

“It’s long expired.”

So Tiedan raised his hand and swung his sword, breaking the gold medal in two, then chopped off the fox's head and asked coldly.

"Who did it?"

"I don't know"

"Where did you go?"

"I don't know, little one."

"Where did it come from."

"I don't know, little one."

Tiedan snorted coldly.

"You know nothing about anything! Then what are you doing here?"

The fox said,
"My daughter is getting married. She said she found some great treasures in this temple. Since she is dead, they can be used as a dowry. She asked me to find them."

Tiedan asked,
"What baby?"

"A white-tooth comb, a jade-bone case, and a golden dress."

"Oh, that's it. Where is your home?"

The fox head suddenly stopped talking.

Tiedan's eyes flashed with blood, and then it was as if invisible hands pried the fox's mouth open. The fox spurted blood, tears flowed from its eyes, and wailed miserably.
"It's under a locust tree fifty miles northwest of here!"

After saying this, the fox head vomited several liters of blood and died.

Tiedan said nothing, he made some hand gestures and flew into the air, stirring up a violent storm, heading straight for fifty miles. As expected, he saw a forest filled with evil spirits and a deadly aura.

Seeing a big locust tree in the distance in the woods, Tiedan landed on it. After checking the surrounding Feng Shui, he realized that it was the layout of a tomb, and there were spiritual energy gathering there. He knew there was a tomb under the tree, and there was a fox in the tomb, so without further ado, he stepped on the tree and let out a sigh.
"come out!"

Then a group of foxes came out of the tree holes and knelt on the ground to worship him like humans. The white fox in the lead spoke human language.

"I wonder what instructions the Immortal has for you now that he has arrived."

"I'm here to give you your dowry."

Tiedan took out the jade bone table from his sleeve and threw it to them.

When the demons saw this, they were delighted. They thanked him and kowtowed one after another.

The white fox said hurriedly,

"It's too heavy, this gift is too heavy! I can't repay such a great favor, how can I repay such a great favor?"

Tiedan asked,
"Three months ago, someone massacred a large number of people in the nearby Xuanmen. Who did it?"

The white fox hesitated for a moment.

"Maybe it was the work of the Demon Cult."

Tiedan asked again,

"I guess you don't know where they are."

The white fox kowtowed.

"Please forgive me, Immortal Master. We are just mountain spirits that have not transformed. How dare we spy on the side and covet the fight between the immortals? We only saw thunder and fire in the mountains, and blood raining down. The fight lasted for seven days and seven nights."

Tiedan said coldly,
"You haven't transformed yet. Where is your young lady? Wasn't she in the temple at that time? What was she doing there? Maybe she saw something. Call her out."

The white fox was startled and lay on the ground, not daring to look up.

"Miss, ma'am..."

Tiedan sneered and took out a white-tooth comb.

"Call her out. She's been dreaming about my treasures. Here, I've specially brought them to her. Come, take them."

The white fox trembled all over and kept silent.

Tiedan suddenly narrowed his eyes.

"Marrying...really marrying?"

The white fox roared suddenly,

"Run!"

"Wow!"

The next moment, the sword energy was as fast as the wind, and the fox's head fell to the ground. The whole nest of foxes and raccoons were all killed in an instant.

Tiedan took a step forward, moved underground, and stepped directly into the tomb, entering the cemetery where the fox demons lived.

But he was still a step too slow. The group of foxes tried to stop him, but the "young lady" had already slipped away underground and disappeared without a trace. Only the boudoir was filled with a faint fragrance and red candles, making it look like a bridal chamber.

Tiedan was not in a hurry to chase after him. He raised his sword on the bed, lifted the quilt and took a look.

Sure enough, the groom is here.

This person was clearly a disciple of the Xuanmen sect who was staying in a jungle temple, but he had his limbs cut off, his skin peeled off, and he was beaten into a cripple.

According to the scene in Xingxuan Temple, this person should have been thrown in front of the statue of Xuannv and bled to death.

But when Tiedan entered the temple just now, he found that all the corpses had been dragged out of the main hall, deliberately torn into pieces and piled up like a Jingguan, which was not in line with the usual style of the Shenjiao.

Moreover, if you count carefully, the number of heads in the Jingguan and the number of feet and legs in the courtyard do not match.

Now after a look at the fox tomb, Tiedan understood. It was obvious that there were three or four people in the jungle temple who were harmed by the cult but not dead at the time. They were secretly picked up by the group of foxes and became bridegrooms and the cauldrons for the essence-collecting ritual.

So just like the man on the bed, all his vital energy and blood were sucked away by the monster, leaving only a dry skeleton. When there was no Qi left, it was thrown to the little foxes to chew.

No wonder that evildoer wanted to ask for the Xiaoyao Sect's magic weapons that gathered dead qi in his hands. It could generate dead qi and harmonize yin and yang, which was just right for practicing. I'm afraid that the method of collecting and replenishing qi that she obtained, as well as these grooms, were also rewards for being spies in the Divine Religion.

If there is merit, there will be reward; if there is fault, there will be punishment.

"You're right. A monster is still a monster after all. Once it bites someone, it can't be kept alive."

Tiedan then cut off the skeleton on the bed with a sword, helped the senior brother to escape from the battle, set a fire, and burned the demon's nest under the locust tree to ashes. Then he followed the scent of the fox and chased it all the way north.
