Li Xuan’s face turned stern as he locked his gaze on the advancing black figure while unsheathing his sword without hesitation to attack.
In this narrow space just enough for two people, Li Xuan couldn’t employ any complex moves. The ‘Frozen Blade’ of the Li Family, a true martial art for the battlefield, was simple and fierce with no unnecessary flourishes. The seventeen combat moves were all straightforward and unadorned.
The ‘Autumn Moon Cold River’ that Li Xuan instinctively used was essentially a simple forward slash. The only distinguishing feature was the unique way he channeled his mana internally and the path he used to circulate his vitality, distinct from other martial secrets. This allowed Li Xuan’s blade force to be more domineering and his cold energy more abundant.
With a sharp ‘clang’ sound, Li Xuan’s figure was pushed back three zhang, nearly blasted out of the cave entrance by the force of the sword slash.
“So, just a puny cultivator at the third house level, and you dare obstruct me?”
That was a woman’s voice, tinged with a hint of mockery. Her figure surged forward, like a shadow following Li Xuan.
However, she had barely taken a step when a layer of frost covered her longsword and her arm.
Her complexion turned pale in an instant, and a puff of white mist came out from her mouth.
Li Xuan chuckled slightly. He was very familiar with the phrase just said. Someone had said the same thing to him on Jiangjun Mountain before.
At this moment, he had already neutralized all of the incoming force and vitality. He then stomped his foot, propelling himself towards her like he was spring-loaded, sliding quickly across the icy ground.
The ground beneath them, and even the entire cave, had been covered in a layer of ice.
Just from the cold power emanating from Li Xuan, this place had been turned into an ice cave!
A moment later, a second ‘clang’ reverberated in the cave. This time, it was the woman in black who stumbled backward. Li Xuan’s first strike had almost frozen the meridians in her body, preventing her from freely mobilizing her vitality force.
And Li Xuan’s second strike worsened the frost condition on her body. The astonishing cold power that penetrated her had even frozen her internal organs.
The woman’s facial muscles had stiffened, unable to display any expression. She tried her best to take a talisman out from her sleeve, attempting to activate it.
But at this moment, Li Xuan’s loud laugh echoed, “So, it should be me who says this! You, a mere cultivator at the fourth house level, dare to resist in front of me!”
A flash of thunder light flickered beneath his feet, and he dashed into the woman in black, then with a ‘Bam’, stamped his palm into her chest.
As the Ice Style vitality from Li Xuan poured in like a breaking flood, the woman turned into an ice sculpture in less than a second.
“Two slashes and one palm strike, perfect!”
This was Li Xuan’s first time capturing a criminal on his own. He slightly smugly clapped his hands together, starting to admire his masterpiece.
The woman’s strength was far stronger than Zhang Jin and Cui Hongan’s guards, but she was still frozen within a few exchanges. According to gaming terminology, it was an instant kill.

The feeling of achievement was off the charts. Li Xuan suspected that he would become a martial arts fanatic eventually because the feeling of defeating an enemy was truly intoxicating.
The battle deep within the cave was still ongoing, with only strong winds intermittently sweeping out.
Li Xuan hesitated for a moment before continuing forward. He vaguely saw lightning flashing inside and a continuous outpour of fire energy, burning the inner cave wall red.
Jiang Hanyun is a Thunder Style Wu cultivator with exceptional strength. As for that fire energy, it was undoubtedly coming from Jiang Hanyun’s opponent.
The strength of this person’s mana was also incredibly formidable. The red firelight had almost turned the surrounding rock wall into molten lava.
Li Xuan estimated that this person’s cultivation had most likely reached the seventh house level and entered the ‘Primordial Spirit’ of The Third Door.
Just as Li Xuan was taking a few steps inside, a sharp voice filled with limitless resentment and hatred echoed.
“Demons of the Liudao Division! I will see you again in the Vacuum Homeland!”
The woman wasn’t able to finish her sentence when Jiang Hanyun interjected with a cold laugh, “I was already prepared for this. You wish to self-destruct? You’re daydreaming!”
A booming sound echoed in the cave, and Li Xuan felt the surrounding space rapidly expand and then contract.
When the wave of energy passed, he instinctively looked up, concerned that the cave might collapse.
Fortunately, the two suspects, possibly for waterproofing, made the cave quite solid. Not only were the surroundings piled high with several feet of azure stone slabs, a special material was used to seal the gaps between the stone slabs.
So only a few specks of sand and dust fell from above, but the overall structure of the cave remained stable.
Thus, Li Xuan confidently walked further in. After about twenty steps, he saw a stone chamber about thirty-five square meters in size. Inside was a mess, with almost all the furnishings destroyed, leaving only a stone bed intact.
In the center of the stone chamber, a woman dressed in black lay, her face purple and blood flowing from her seven orifices, clearly unconscious. However, she was still breathing, and her chest moved slightly.
Jiang Hanyun stood beside a stone wall, looking thoughtfully at the words carved into it.
When Li Xuan walked in, Jiang Hanyun looked back at him with a mocking gaze, “Just capturing a small spell cultivator at the fourth house level and you’re so excited?”
“Of course, I’m excited!” Li Xuan’s smile grew wider. “But people like you, you probably can’t understand how I’m feeling right now.”
He then also turned his gaze toward the stone wall, “Buddha spoke as such, once upon a time, in the Jeta Grove in the city of Sravasti and with an assembly of five hundred bhiksus. At that time Ananda… What is this? A Buddhist scripture?”
“Maitreya Bodhisattva’s Birth Sutra, it’s a Buddhist scripture but also the essential scripture of the Maitreya Teaching and the White Lotus Sect. There’s also an incomplete Full and Mini-version Emperor Ming’s Birth Sutra.”
Jiang Hanyun retracted her gaze and frowned slightly, “These two women are likely associated with either the Maitreya Teaching or the Ming Teaching.”
Li Xuan couldn’t help but feel slightly startled. He knew that Emperor Tai of Jin’s rebellion years ago had deep connections with the Maitreya and the Ming Teachings.
Meanwhile, ‘The Full and Mini-version Emperor Ming’s Birth Sutra’ was the foundation relied upon by the various heroes who rose up to expel the Mongols hundreds of years ago.
However, after Emperor Tai established the nation, the Jin Dynasty has been relentlessly persecuting the Maitreya and Ming Teachings. As a result, the complete Full and Mini-version Emperor Ming’s Birth Sutra has been lost.
Li Xuan shifted his gaze away from the stone wall and began to look around. At this moment, Jiang Hanyun suddenly half-drew her waist sword and cautiously looked towards the entrance of the cave.
“It’s me!”
Along with this voice, Ma Chenggong walked in from the outside. He glanced around and then furrowed his eyebrows slightly, “It’s actually the remnants of the Maitreya Teaching!”
