Chapter 39 - 39 39 The Dao under heaven does not distinguish between left and right

39: Chapter 39 The Dao under heaven does not distinguish between left and right 39: Chapter 39 The Dao under heaven does not distinguish between left and right Over the next three days.

Xie Xuanyi patiently taught Deng Baiyi how to engrave arrays—

It must be said, Deng Baiyi truly was a genius in the way of array patterns and talismans.

For her first engraving, she tackled the highly difficult “Nine Luminaries Phoenix Fire Refining Illusionary Array”!

This grand array required the use of several different talismans to press the formation.

To achieve the final assembly of the array.

One needed to progress in more than one form of array technique and talismanic technique, quite complex…

but Deng Baiyi’s improvement was swift, almost grasping everything at the first point.

Xie Xuanyi watched and felt greatly heartened.

The higher Deng Baiyi’s aptitude in the way of talismans, the more it proved the correctness of his earlier decision.

This uncut jade of talent should not follow him in cultivation.

The most outstanding place for the art of talismans under heaven was the Taoist World Pavilion.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

At the time of evening sunset.

Deng Baiyi, her clothing soaked through with sweat, had nearly exhausted her last bit of mental strength.

“Finally finished…”

She sat atop the grassy knoll, hands propping her up on the ground, her hair fluttering with the wind, murmuring softly to herself.

The grand array was complete!

At this moment, this mountain peak, with nearly a hundred zhang in radius, was encompassed by the “Nine Luminaries Phoenix Fire Refining Illusionary Array.”

She had spent three days and nights without shutting her eyes.

But at this time, Deng Baiyi did not feel the slightest bit of weariness.

Just now, as she completed the final array assembling ritual, Jiang Huang very cooperatively squeezed out a drop of fingertip blood, and as this drop of essence blood spread through the array’s core, Deng Baiyi, who held the “Phoenix Fire Main Array Talisman Paper,” suddenly felt herself entering an unprecedented mystical state!

Every inch of soil here seemed to be under her control.

She could feel every breeze that skimmed by.

She could also sense each blade of grass that fell.

With just a thought, the grand array could be activated…

She was the undisputed master of this world!

“Is this…

the completion of an array?”

The first time engraving an array, the first time assembling it, the first time commanding it.

Deng Baiyi was immersed in the supreme feeling of control, intoxicated as if in a trance, when suddenly, her peripheral vision caught a glimpse of a figure so stunningly beautiful it had never been seen before.

Xie Xuanyi stood at the top of the small mountain.

He had changed into a different outfit.

No longer was it the snow-like pure white clothing.

Xuanyi, Xuanyi.

For the past twenty-odd years, he had mostly worn black clothes.

The sword he previously wore, “Chen Ke,” was also a blade of pure black.

Back then, many people in Da Chu would say that wherever Xie Xuanyi was, it was like the long night, and this was because he often wore a dismally black color.

And whenever he drew his sword, it was like the break of dawn’s cold light.

Perhaps it was because of “dying once,” Xie Xuanyi’s complexion was paler than in his past life, and under the contrast of the black clothing, even appeared somewhat ghastly pale, but it also created a more striking contrast.

After igniting nearly half of his acupoints, Xie Xuanyi’s vitality gradually returned to normal levels.

The him of today, had eyes containing the essence of wind and thunder, lips red and teeth white, without wearing the human skin mask, he was someone whose gaze one could not easily shift away from.

At least Deng Baiyi for a time could not shift her gaze away.

She had never seen such a good-looking young man.

“There’s a profound saying in the cultivation world.”

Xie Xuanyi suddenly spoke, “The bigger the fist, the greater the truth…

Many people misunderstand this saying to mean that when two cultivators meet, the one of lower realm must always bow down.

But actually, it’s not like that, the saying should have another half added to it, heaven and earth are vast, but being alive is paramount.”

Deng Baiyi stared slightly in shock.

“The person with the bigger fist doesn’t necessarily live to the end.”

Xie Xuanyi lowered her eyelids and said softly, “Sometimes, in life and death struggles, it’s not just about using fists.

Flying Swords, Magic Artifacts, poisons, Array Patterns and Talismans, Mechanical Techniques…

the world of cultivators is very cruel.

To survive, no means are excessive.

This is why there are so many despicable Evil Cultivators in South Border; they are filthy and mean, yet they live better than many others.”

Deng Baiyi’s eyes held a trace of bewilderment.

“Many righteous warriors claim to be noble and disdain the use of ‘sideways paths’ or ‘scheming plots’.”

Xie Xuanyi laughed at herself and said, “Such people often do not end well.

The more complacent they are, the easier they are to be plotted against.

Remember, do not become such a fool.

Even when a lion fights a rabbit, it uses all its strength…

Fighting enemies with the arts of Talismans and Array Patterns is nothing to be ashamed of.”

Deng Baiyi nodded her head in slight confusion, yet she understood this principle.

What is more shameful, losing face or losing life?

Survival is the truth!

However, she didn’t quite understand why Xie Zhen suddenly told her all this.

“I’m going to go out for a bit.

If all goes well, like in Taian City, I’ll be back before long, and we won’t need this grand formation.”

Xie Xuanyi paused, then continued, “But if things don’t go smoothly…

I might be in a bit of a mess when I return.”

Deng Baiyi instantly became tense.

She clutched the Main Array Talisman in her palm tightly.

“The Nine Bright Phoenix Fire Refines the Void Great Array, while unparalleled in killing power, also has its shortcomings…

Its range is limited, if someone detects it in advance and does not enter the array, no matter how fearsome its killing power, it is of no use.”

Xie Xuanyi’s expression grew serious as she spoke word by word, “That’s why I need you to stay calm and make sure to activate the grand formation only when the prey is hooked!”

Deng Baiyi clenched her teeth and asked, “Is this enemy so strong that even you are not confident?”

In these past days, she had come to understand the general realms of cultivation.

After Qi Control, it was the Cave Heaven Realm—

Was Xie Zhen, a cultivator of the Cave Heaven Realm, also reliant on Array Patterns to face his foe?

This question made Xie Xuanyi smile wryly.

He shook his head and softly uttered three words, “…All in the past.”

From those three words, Deng Baiyi heard a sense of helplessness.

But more so, there was a sense of detachment.

“Do you remember what I just told you?

Many years ago, I was exactly such a fool.”

Xie Xuanyi said softly, “Knowing a little about the Sword Dao, I thought I was something special.

With a Flying Sword in hand, I was too arrogant to see the sky above and the earth below, thinking I was the greatest.

Now I realize just how far off the mark I was.”

He gently stretched his limbs.

Bones watered by the Undying Spring crackled like popping beans, and golden Primordial Energy ignited within the major cavities, shining like stars in the darkness, incredibly bright.

The next moment,

Accompanied by a long and melancholy sigh from Xie Xuanyi, the boiling golden Primordial Energy within the cavities gradually went out.

He disappeared into the night.

Black clothes, black robe, and a plain black sword bought from Lichao City.

Xie Xuanyi slowly took out the Human Skin Mask and pressed it onto his face.

The originally peerless face suddenly became ordinary.

“Hey!”

A tense voice rang out on top of the small mountain.

Deng Baiyi tightly clutched the talisman, her voice barely audible, like the buzz of an insect, “Xie Zhen…

I’ll wait for you right here…”

“You, please be very careful…”

Xie Xuanyi waved his hand and took a light step forward.

He fell like a drifting leaf.

Eyes closed.

The wind roared.

The teachings of his master once again came to mind.

[“The great Dao of the world does not distinguish between left and right.”]

[“All the laws of the world have no high or low.”]

[“Xuanyi, the Dao that a Sword Cultivator can comprehend is not limited to the Sword Dao.”]
