Chapter 75: Chapter 75 Honzan

"Splash."

"Ah, ah, ah!!"

"Senior Brother!!"

"Bastard, bastard, bastard..."

Tie Dan turned his face, seeing the headless body behind him, spraying a fountain of blood, collapsing to the ground.

He glanced at the head in his hand, its eyes rolled back, blood spilling all over it.

Couldn’t hold back...

So Tie Dan shrugged, casually flinging the head aside.

No turning back now.

"Bang!"

"Ugh!"

A shadow flashed, hand wrapped in sword energy, pierced through someone’s chest, breaking through the body, killing another person.

"Bastard, bastard, bast..."

Before the sentence finished, without drawing the sword from its sheath, sword energy had already struck, slashing diagonally across the forehead, splitting open the skull and throat, unleashing a spray of blood wind.

"Waaah!"

"Stop!"

A voice roared angrily from the sky dome, eight sword lights fell like stars, forming a circle of light grid, trapping Tie Dan in a sword cage.

However, the fourth person was already slumped on the ground, clutching their chest with wide eyes, pinkish foamy blood seeping from their mouth and nose, limbs twitching, dead.

A silhouette descended with the sword light, rushing to the child’s side to check.

"Wha-what, the heart vessels are severed... possessed by demons..."

No, it’s the Formless Sword.

Tie Dan crouched in the sword cage, silent and expressionless.

If he wasn’t covered in blood, one might think those four deaths had nothing to do with him...

"Thud."

The broom fell to the ground.

The child sweeping at the door stood there with jaw dropped, dumbfounded.

In the time it takes to sweep, a glance up, hey! Guess what! All the senior brothers of the same sect are dead!

"You, you! Bastard! So young yet so brutal and vicious!"

The sword cultivator who rushed over, probably a Nascent Soul True Man of our Honzan, checked over the bodies on the ground one by one. Seeing how quickly it happened, killing them was done so decisively and cleanly, not a single survivor left, he was furious, immediately retracting the sword light, stepping up, pressing Tie Dan with a hand, hooking fingers like iron into his scapula, locking him.

Tie Dan remained silent, just coldly staring at him, memorizing his appearance.

"What are you looking at! Do you want to cut me too!"

The True Man was also angered, exerting energy that cracked even Tie Dan’s shoulders.

Tie Dan continued staring at him expressionlessly.

"Hmph, wretch... don’t be complacent! Wait for the Sect Leader to deal with you! Tang Tong! Come here!"

The True Man roared angrily, and the sweeping child hurriedly ran over, not daring to get too close to Tie Dan, shrinking back on the other side of the True Man.

"Sword escape!"

The True Man spat out a sword ball, "Whoosh!" The sword light circled around them, raising a strong gust, taking the three of them away in the swirling sword light. In the blink of an eye, they landed before a towering peak at the cloud summit.

Tie Dan endured the pain, looking up,

Only to see at the mountain’s base, like planting peach trees and willows, were numerous treasure swords and Divine Weapons, everywhere treasure light and sword aura shone dazzlingly!

At the mountain top, there stood a Nine-layered Dao Tower, towering at the summit, treasure light soaring, auspicious rainbows filled the sky, Nine Luminaries stars shining, auspicious Qi skyrocketing!

Like a Divine Sword, piercing straight into the Heavenly Wall Star Palace, sword pointing at Beichen’s dome!

Indeed

The tiger roar and dragon chant, Gang Wind howling, the immortal cranes cry, circling the tower,

The sun illuminates the sword ridge, the bright moon casting shadow to forge blade brilliance,

The killing Qi rushing to shake Bull Dipper, the Sword Intent clouding, severing Ziwei,

In the Nine Heavens Star Pavilion shining, Beichen peak containing Divine Power.

"Kneel!"

The True Man threw Tie Dan in front of the mountain path stone steps, ascended the mountain, and paid his respects at the Sword Pavilion Dao Tower.

And that child Tang Tong dared not utter a word, directly prostrated to the ground in utmost subjugation, not daring to even lift his head.

Only Tie Dan, with one shattered shoulder, looked askance, glancing left, looking right, scanning with a glance, seeing the multitude of Divine Weapons and treasure swords shining, moving without wind, glowing without light, each flicker reflecting sword shadows dazing his face, shining into his eyes, as if trying to see who could blind this young boy’s eyes first.

Tie Dan remained silent, just gazing at the mountain full of twinkling stars.

So...

This Honzan holds so many spirit-imbued treasure swords...

Indeed, as the leader of the Mystic Sect, how could Beichen Sword Sect be outdone by even a mere division of the Demon Sect’s treasury.

Even the Shen sisters, being direct descendants of this mountain, could easily obtain three treasure swords. It seems that at Nine Yin Mountain, swords are not scarce commodities.

If the fellow disciples of Yanzi Cave had such a fine sword, perhaps it wouldn’t have come to this...

Well, each has their destiny, and people’s possessions are theirs to give as they wish.

Yet they’d rather have so many good swords just stuck into the mountain like this...

Tie Dan closed his eyes, took a deep breath, gathering the killing intent within his heart.

"Hmph! Rebellious to the core! Ruthless and unfeeling! You truly are one in ten thousand!"

In that moment, a cold snort echoed from the Sword Pavilion, as if thunderous, exploding in Tie Dan’s Divine Court.

"Puh!"

With just a snort, Tie Dan felt as if struck by lightning, his Divine Court severely injured, spitting blood and collapsing, unable to move.

He could only open his eyes, forcing his head up, seeing a star-bright humanoid figure standing before the Sword Pavilion, high above looking down at him.

Remember it...

While Tang Tong beside Tie Dan trembled like a sieve.

The voice from above resounded like thunder, echoing through the mountain ridge,

"Tell it precisely! Speak!"

With Tang Tong like that, naturally he didn’t dare deceive, prostrating on the ground, with a stuttering voice,

"Dis-disciple Tang Tong, serving under True Man Tianlu, this morning Senior Brother Xue saw someone staying in Brother Pei’s room and said to teach him a lesson, tidying up a bit, and made me stand at the door as lookout. I was sweeping at the door, and when I turned back, turned back... turned back they were all dead!"

The voice impatiently said,

"No nonsense! Did you see who made the first move!"

Tang Tong sweating profusely,

"Dis-disciple saw nothing..."

"Tsk!"

The thunderous voice said angrily,

"In front of the Sect Leader! Don’t dare deceive! Just speak the truth!"

Tang Tong was terrified, knocking his head three times,

"Dis-disciple would never dare deceive the Sword Master! It-it was Senior Brother Xue who made the first move! Because he and Brother Pei were close as Daoist companions! Seeing the room occupied, he was resentful, it was him who struck first and threw this senior brother out! A group surrounded him and beat him!

They were cursing as they beat, saying things like which uncouth wild child brought this mute from the outer mountain through the gates! Saying his master was hacked to death, only then did he have the chance to come up the mountain!

In their words, there were many offenses directly calling out the names, offending the elders of this sect, the disciple dared not repeat, certainly not intending to deceive, begging the Sect Leader to discern!"

Tie Dan frowned, confusedly looking at the child, but the other remained in a frightened posture, prostrate on the ground.

"...Enough! Stop!"

The thunderous voice was also choked, hastily stopping the chatter, the sword light in the sky retracted, seemingly returning to the Sword Pavilion.

So the two of them were left kneeling at the mountain’s base, waiting for about the time it takes for one pot of tea, then the True Man descended the mountain with a cold face, wordlessly, lifting each of them, ensnaring them in sword light, and flew away through the sea of clouds.

Tie Dan wasn’t sure what was happening, only felt the wind on his face, and the True Man intentionally gripping his shoulder, causing unbearable pain. After much difficulty, the clouds dispersed, revealing the ground below. The True Man suddenly released them, throwing Tie Dan and Tang Tong from about two zhang high into the air, they fell into the mountainside and took a tumble.

The True Man said coldly,

"Sect Leader instructs, for fighting within the sect, punishment is chopping wood at the foot of the mountain."

Then he directly transformed into light and escaped away.

At the bottom of the mountain...

Tie Dan got up, seeing the dense mountains and forests around, deep forest and towering trees, piercing the sky dome, looking up, only seeing the thick clouds above, no longer any trace of Immortal hints or Treasure Light.

Where to seek the Immortal Mountain, deep in clouds unseen...

Then Tang Tong, who had been whimpering, stopped crying, patted his backside, stood up,

"Hey, outer mountain."

Tie Dan turned his head to look at him.

Tang Tong took out a small bottle from his bosom, tossed it in front of Tie Dan, seeing he didn’t catch it, pointed to his left shoulder,

"Your bone is sticking out."

Tie Dan expressionless, with a "snap," reset his broken bone.

"Ugh, how disgusting..."

Tang Tong looked disgusted, seeing Tie Dan ungrateful, unsurprised, he picked up the medicine bottle himself,

"Follow me, we must reach the temple before dark, Xuan Nu Mountain has many monsters."

Tie Dan frowned,

"Xuan Nu Mountain?"

"You’ve never heard of Xuan Nu Mountain? What backwater corner did you jump out from..."

Tang Tong shrugged, didn’t care, and walked into the mountain range,

"This is Qianzhou, used to be Qian Country, now it’s our Mystic Sect’s territory."
