Chapter 179: I'll Tell You A Secret

The inside of the bag is so quiet that you can hear the pin drop. There is no answer from within. Bai Xiaochun's eyes widened, and he let out a threatening roar. However, nothing moved inside the bag.

Angry, he sealed it. Then, he laughed coldly and closed his eyes to meditate. A few days later, after he had fully recovered, he twisted his cultivation base and sent a golden light flowing towards the Heavenspan Dharma Eye on his forehead.

"Well little mask, let's see if you can hide from me this time!" With a cold snort, he confirmed that he could force-open his Heavenspan Dharma Eye again. With that, he unsealed his bag, and then opened the eyes of the three just a little. Purple eyes could hardly be seen as he looked into the bag of holding.

At that moment, his mind trembled, and everything disappeared. His handbag and everything inside turned transparent, revealing a tangled mask in the corner.

It had hidden itself in the lining of the bag holding, slowly merging to the side. Clearly, if it was given enough time, it would be able to fully merge into the material of the holding bag, then quietly escape to the other side.

As soon as Bai Xiaochun saw it with his third eye, the mask trembled and released a blinding light as it tried to get out of the bag he was holding. Before it could, Bai Xiaochun let out a cold snort, and sent spiritual power flowing into the bag of holding to reach for the mask.

After pulling it out from within the lining of the bag, he pulled it out and held it to examine it with his third eye. Surprisingly, only his third eye could see him. His other feelings, including his normal eyes, could not detect his presence at all.

"Surprising," he thought. "Why can I see him back in the World of the Fallen Sword?" He could not sustain the use of his third eye for too long, so after closing it down, he made use of his nine spiritual seas, releasing a Heaven-Dao aura. Immediately, the air above his palm began to distort, and soon, the mask was visible in front of him.

That's now a flesh-colored mask!

This was the mask he was trying to destroy back in the Fallen Sword World. It seemed as smooth as a cricket wing, and also contained some strange aura that Bai Xiaochun could not analyze clearly. "Could it be cultivated using the water of the Heavenspan River?".

It was an aura emanating from any material made from the mask, and Bai Xiaochun felt it was quite shocking. Then he thought back to how the soul of that Blood Stream Sect disciple entered the mask and then tried to escape.

"I know you're there!" he growls. "Show your face to Master Bai!" There was no reaction from the mask. Eyes shone with ruthlessness, he tried to destroy the mask, yet no matter how much power he used, nothing happened.

“Not going out? You really think I have no way to deal with you? " With that, he shot the mountain into the bank of the Heavenspan River, where he swung his hand back, as if throwing a mask into the water.

That river water was the only thing Bai Xiaochun could think of that could melt anything. However, before he could actually throw the mask, it trembled and suddenly shouted, "Senior, let me say something!"

"Ah, so you can talk now, huh?" Bai Xiaochun said, his eyes glowing fiercely. "Get out of that mask and tell me who you are!"

Suddenly a mist came out from the tangled mask, which quickly formed into a small person. Although he did not look exactly like the person he killed in the Falling Sword World, he looked similar. Looking extremely frightened, and physically trembling, he clasped his hands and bowed to Bai Xiaochun.

"Please grace me with your help, Senior," he said sadly. "Your humble servant made a mistake, I know that. I am a disciple of the Inner Sect of the Blood Flow Sect. Name's Nightcrypt …. " After the calamity of the Fallen Sword World, he remained in the bag holding Bai Xiaochun. The plan was to slowly escape, but before he could, Bai Xiaochun had found him.

Originally, he wasn't too worried, assuming Bai Xiaochun wouldn't be able to hurt him. He never imagined that he would threaten to melt it in the Heavenspan River.

The spiritual power of the waters of the Heavenspan River was difficult to reveal, and even some of the most powerful defensive treasures could be destroyed by it.

When Bai Xiaochun heard the name ‘Nightcrypt’, he was a bit surprised, and even felt a little nervous. The name is intimidating. Whether the meaning of the name meant burying people at night, or burying the night itself, it must have felt very deadly. [1. In general, I translate character names, and translate Daoist names or nicknames. For Nightcrypt, I made a slight exception. This was supposed to be his real name, not a Daoist name. So if I transliterated it, it would be Ye Zang. However, it was a completely ridiculous name in Chinese, the kind of name that no one would have in real life. It should sound cool /creepy /badass, except, sort of "made-up" alias not a real name. To keep the sense of the name absurd, I would translate it instead of translating it. PS I'm sorry if anyone in the audience was actually named Nightcrypt, and I'm offended to call that name ridiculous.]

Looking suspiciously at the trembling soul, Bai Xiaochun cleared his throat. "Well, your name could use some work. That doesn't sound too good, you know. Definitely not as good as mine. "

Nightcrypt gaped for a moment, obediently voicing his agreement. However, he did not dare to say anything else. The truth is that he feels very sorry for himself. The Blood Stream Sect had never noticed him, and he had worked very hard to reach the large circle of Qi Condensation.

Originally, he was not qualified to enter the Fallen Sword Abyss. The truth was that he had learned a strange mixture of things in the Bloodstream Sect. Other than a little knowledge of medicinal herbs, he also studied the divination magic of the sect. He would often devote his own future, and although the results were not always accurate, they had provided some benefits to his cultivation.

Before the Fallen Sword Abyss opened, his prophecy had revealed that he would find incredible luck if he were to leave.

Although he was not so trusting at first, he obtained the same result after many prophecies. Finally, he gritted his teeth and paid a very expensive price, even experiencing significant humiliation, to obtain a place. Who would have ever thought that, not only would he not get lucky, he would end up being the brutal captive of Bai Xiaochun.

"Master Bai," he said, bowing continuously, "considering your incredible strength, Master, why don't you just let me go? I can be a spy for you! I will return to the Blood Stream Sect and report back to you here at the Spirit Stream Sect. I-I can even swear! ”

Bai Xiaochun looked at him, then gave a cold snort.

"Surve? This is your true look, right? The nightcrypt I killed was a different person than you! I can't believe you're trying to fool me! Bai Xiaochun hated him when people tried to trick him! Prepare to die!" Glaring as hard as he could, he knelt down and prepared to drop the mask into the river.

“Don't kill me! I will tell you a big secret !! ”

Bai Xiaochun sneered, even more incredulous than before. With that, he loosened his grip, and the mask began to fall.

Nightcrypt was scared out of his mind as the river water flowed towards him. "No! I am serious about this secret! It has to do with eternal destruction !! ”

Vibration flowed over Bai Xiaochun. As far as he knows, the terms ‘abadi’ and ‘indestructible’ are basically the same as ‘mati’ and ‘live forever.’ Without any hesitation for a moment, his hand shot out with lightning-like speed to grab the mask.

"You better not try to trick me" he said seriously. "You already know how much I hate it when people try to trick me!"

"I'm telling you the truth" Nightcrypt gushed out. "There's a big secret about the Blood Flow Sect. They have a relic of immortality! No one else knows about it except me. Even the patriarchs of the Blood Stream Sect were unaware that the heaven-defying object was hidden within their sect !!

"According to legend, anyone who got the relic and unlocked it would be able to grasp the secret of being indestructible forever !!

"I didn't fool you. I'm really serious about this !! ” From what Nightcrypt knew, Bai Xiaochun was a very moody person, who was the most fearsome type of person.

Glaring furiously, Bai Xiaochun prepared the mask back into the river. “What a load of crap. The ancestors from the sect did not know about it, but you know? "

On the verge of tears, Nightcrypt finally said it all. "I-I really am not a disciple of the Blood Stream Sect. I am a fraud …. "

As the Nightcrypt swindler continued to explain the details, Bai Xiaochun's eyes widened. It turned out that this swindler was someone that the real Nightcrypt was not even aware of!

He started as a rogue cultivator at the third level of Qi Condensation, with relatively good latent talent. After being chased by the enemy, he is almost killed when a mysterious savior from a mysterious sect appears. His savior was in a bit of a hurry, so after a moment of thought, gave him a mask and told him to find an Outer Sect disciple in the Bloodstream Sect named Nightcrypt. Its mission is to replace it and carry out certain tasks. The savior has even concentrated the soul of the deceiver.

The real Nightcrypt is dead now. However, he had occupied a relatively stable position in the Bloodstream Sect. One of his ancestors had done a good service to the Bloodstream Sect, and because of that, Nightcrypt had secured a place in the Inner Sect.

A con artist's mysterious savior has visited him a second time to explain further details of his mission, which is secretly acquiring an indestructible relic of the immortal. His savior described his appearance, and even told him where it was. Apparently, there was a huge door guarding the way, the key was a unique medicinal pill.

The pill was not difficult to concoct; even ordinary apothecaries could do it. Unfortunately, no matter who fabricated it, the success rate was fifty-fifty. Besides, the material is very rare. Gathering them all would be a very difficult task.

Fortunately, his mysterious savior sect was extremely wealthy, and had already collected most of the ingredients. The only thing lacking was beastbirth blood.

After replacing Nightcrypt and becoming a Blood Stream Sect disciple, everything went smoothly at first. He immediately became a disciple of the Inner Sect, but quickly discovered that he was having difficulty cultivating the Blood Flow Sect technique. Although he had good latent talent, he was no match for blood cultivation. This matter got worse and worse until he was stuck at the eighth level of Qi Condensation.

Slowly, the sect lost interest in him, and even his mysterious savior did not provide any help. For a miserable few years, he continued to cultivate by himself in an exhausting style….

His mysterious savior sect was very, very far from the Bloodstream Sect, and there were other things that made it difficult to go back and forth between the two. Furthermore, he could not directly plunder the incorruptible relic itself. Because of that, he only appeared three times, and all three times it was all through projections, and it seemed to have to be paid dearly.

The first time when he set up Nightcrypt's soul replacement. The second time was when the Nightcrypt impersonator became a disciple of the Inner Sect. The fanfare surrounding the event seems to displease his mysterious savior, but does not stop him from explaining the details of the eternal indestructible relic. It was also when he gave Nightcrypt fake medicine to concoct medicinal pills, and explained that his mysterious sect would continue to search for the final ingredient.

The third time he had appeared was right before the Nightcrypt impostor entered the World of the Fallen Sword. He had explained that if he could not reach the Foundation Establishment, that he should take off the mask and leave his spy work.

Imposter Nightcrypt had no choice but to rely on his divination skill to illuminate the true path ahead. Everything after that is history ….

"Is the sect full of idiots?" Bai Xiaochun said without thinking. "Why did they choose you to be their spy? Moreover, how could the Blood Flow Sect never suspect you ?! ” In his opinion, Nightcrypt is lying, or a mysterious sect full of fools. Of course, there might be some other factors that Bai Xiaochun was unaware of, something that gave the mysterious sect no other choice but to rely on Nightcrypt's soul replacement plan.
