Secret Records of the Leader of the Beichen Sword Sect-Chapter 313 - 247 Xingxuan

Meanwhile, while optimizing the Lightning Sword, Tie Dan entered the secret realm of the Xingxuan Sect for training.

This was a legacy left by the Xingxuan Ancestor for the disciples of his own sect, naturally focused on teaching with trials being secondary. It shouldn’t be too dangerous, otherwise, if it killed all the disciples, wouldn’t it cut off the legacy?

However, as it was ultimately the secret realm of the Mystic Sect, it had to maintain its dignity. Passing three trials after arriving was customary.

The first trial was a bronze gate that required one to push open the door by themselves, assessing physical fitness. One had to have at least some power; mortals shouldn’t stir up trouble here.

The second was an entire piece of Mutton Fat Jade Wall, which required activation with True Qi to reveal the hidden passage within the jade wall, allowing one to pass through by crossing the wall. Without Golden Core Realm Qi Refining Cultivation, it was naturally impassable.

The third was a stone lion magical beast, which required battling as a test of comprehensive qualities. Of course, this stone lion adjusted its challenge based on the person. If a Nascent Soul True Man attempted it, it wouldn’t dare move an inch while sitting there.

With nothing much to say, after three or five quick hits, Tie Dan dealt with the lion and passed the three trials, exiting the secret realm path, finally reaching the true place of trials as the view opened up. ƒreewebɳovel.com

Heading towards the Qi Observation Temple, this Cave Heaven was a whole stretch of mountains and forests, with mountains, rivers, and trees; there were three paths to choose from. Looking out, a glow enveloped everything, mist was dense, clearly hindered by Illusion Technique, forcing disciples to rely solely on arithmetic to leave.

Naturally, stone slabs were erected at the cave entrance, providing a pile of arithmetic problems and hints on how to pass, clearly aiming to educate through entertainment, guiding disciples in arithmetic. The Ancestor probably enjoyed this, but whether the disciples find joy in it was another matter...

So, Tie Dan skillfully took out paper money for transcription and began solving the problems.

Although arithmetic greatly depends on comprehension, it isn’t entirely intuition. Ultimately, it’s about practice—gaining enlightenment from repeated problem-solving, reaching a point where the pen moves as if guided by a spirit. If he really couldn’t manage, he’d ask Chen Xuantian for some reference material.

The arithmetic of Xingxuan Sect was indeed vast and profound; Tie Dan couldn’t possibly master it all at once. But upon brief inspection, this method was used for calculating the celestial star trajectory, using the star trajectory for position determination.

Obviously, the star positions in this secret realm were likely illusions set up using secret techniques by the Xingxuan Ancestor. They differed slightly from the Star Dome Tie Dan saw at night, perhaps intentionally concealing the Heavenly Mechanism for testing disciples’ arithmetic skills.

But Tie Dan’s original intention this time was not to acquire some arithmetic legacy, but to rescue a dog and kill someone. So he had no time to ponder here, merely estimated Ling Biao’s general location, examined the Dao Breath that didn’t match the array setup, and dashed into the forest.

Little did he expect that as soon as he entered the array, he felt the earth spinning and the stars hanging upside down, as if the world flipped and the Qiankun turned! The entire array actually spun rapidly!

Immediately, his whole body turned head over heels, nearly plummeting into the Sky Dome! He had to quickly crouch on all fours, using True Qi to attach himself, clinging to the ground to stabilize himself!

Tie Dan rested for a moment, observing the surrounding rivers and mountains while hurriedly measuring the star positions, only to discover that the Qiankun position constantly changed, turning all feng shui and Daoist skills into chaos, but only the stars high in the sky remained unchanged.

Based on the direction of the constant gravity changes at that moment, he constructed a model in his mind, gradually forming some hypothesis and speculation.

The structure of this Cave Heaven Array was likely a drum-like, constantly turning hollow sphere, with the entire array continuously revolving and spinning, providing centrifugal force. Combined with restriction arrays, the inward mountains and forests didn’t collapse or scatter. The stars hanging above were actually not in the sky but within, serving as the core of this spherical array, likely its magic treasure maintaining this array.

Such an array perfectly countered those poor in computational ability, low-performing disciples of the Mystic Sect who were ignorant of mathematics—even if you were a Qi and Body Cultivation master who could grind a stone lion into a circle. Upon entering this array, with the compass spinning, heavens and earth turning, and Qiankun scattering, without the Daopower to break through and leave, one wouldn’t know the entrance and exit without calculating the heavenly stars, risking confinement within the array.

Additionally, as this great array constantly rotated, one needed to manipulate Qi consistently, combining it with the spiritual paths of mountains, rivers, and forests corresponding to Returning Dust Mysterious, Purple Mist to stick to the array. If delayed for too long, one’s True Qi would deplete, and energy consumed, eventually plummeting into the sky, trapped among the stars.

Seems quite intriguing...

However, Tie Dan’s True Qi was endless, not worried about depleting entirely, and additionally, he had Kun pounding the keyboard to assist. So he quickly entered calculations, completed array modeling, and then with Purple Mist Longevity True Qi protecting his body, he weaved through the forest, guided by Star Power, rapidly maneuvering along the star positions.

Fortunately, the design of this array was overly intricate and the Earth Vein limited, making the structure incapable of being too large. Tie Dan swiftly moved through the forest for a short while before spotting two Qi Breaths approaching from afar. Surprisingly, it was a man and a woman, two masked cultivators also using Purple Mist True Qi to protect their bodies, leaping through the forest.

The woman was Xi Hui in a purple robe, the man had a mixture of a robe and armor, resembling a Martial Cultivator.

The two seemed to be rushing out from the depths of the forest and ran directly into Tie Dan. They were surprised to see him, and Xi Hui started,

"How did you get in too?"

"Immortal, do you recognize this person?"

"He is... How should this Fellow Daoist be addressed?"

Tie Dan noticed how both hid one hand inside their sleeves, probably desperately pinching a formula. He also understood that if it weren’t for the array’s feng shui interference, they’d have already cast Daoist spells at him. He mentally sneered, showing a face full of innocent naivety,
