Chapter 125: The Sixth Mountain Master >
rd from the county magistrate's office immediately approached."Master Su Xin, please follow me. The county magistrate is already waiting in the main hall.""Good"Su Xin nodded and followed the attendan..."What" Su Xin was taken aback.
He originally thought that the Nine Stars Dao Master would recommend a Transcendent powerhouse, but he didn't expect it to be the Sixth Mountain Master!
That's the mountain master!
The six current Mountain Lords of Jiusheng Mountain, any one of them would be a super powerful overlord-level existence if placed in the Eastern Wasteland. Such beings are too detached.
Their disciples, at the very least, are all at the pinnacle of the Five Steps Nirvana Realm, and some even transcend this realm.
Although he possesses some talent, at most he's just a little guy at the Broken Void Realm. How could he possibly be qualified to be the disciple of such a super being
Although several powerful individuals seeking disciples came to me these days, none of them at the mountain master level expressed a desire to take me as their disciple.
"Lord Jiuchen, are you serious You're not joking with me" Su Xin looked at Lord Jiuchen in disbelief.
Of course, Daoist Jiuxin smiled.
“But the Sixth Mountain Master didn’t say he would take me as his disciple, and he hasn’t even sent anyone to tell me,” Su Xin said.
"The identity of the Sixth Mountain Master is naturally someone who wouldn't proactively come to recruit you as a disciple. But you, on the other hand, can go and pay him homage. Jiucheng Dao Master chuckled, "Su Xin, you just arrived at Jiusheng Mountain, and you don't know much about this Sixth Mountain Master yet. Remember the URL
"
Jiuchendaozhu spoke.
The current six mountain masters of Jiusheng Mountain, among them the first five mountain masters are incredibly ancient beings. They became mountain masters over a thousand years ago. Only the sixth mountain master is a newly risen super being, and even since he became the mountain master, it hasn't been a hundred years yet.
“As such a young mountain master, there are naturally many people within the Jiusheng Mountain, even some transcendent powerhouses, who want to join his sect. However, this sixth mountain master has a very eccentric temperament.”
He did not outright refuse any powerful warriors who sought to become his disciples. Instead, he set up three tests and had each warrior go through them one by one. As long as they could pass all three tests, they would be allowed to become his disciples.
However, over the years, many strong individuals have sought him out to become his disciples and undergo those three trials. Yet, until now, none have truly passed the test.
"None at all" Su Xin was astonished.
What kind of formidable test would it be, that none of the many powerful cultivators from Mount Jiusheng have been able to pass in all these years
"Don't even say complete the test, even if you can pass the first two tests, no one has ever reached the third test. The Ninth Heaven Lord chuckled, "So until now, this Sixth Mountain Master hasn't even had a single disciple."
"Master Jiuxin, you want me to go to the Sixth Mountain Master as my teacher, do you want me to accept that triple test" Su Xin looked at Master Jiuxin.
“Nodded to the Lord of Nine Stars.”
"So many top experts couldn't pass the test, how could I" Su Xin frowned.
This is not because he is lacking in confidence, but because the key individuals who accepted the challenge before him were all powerful cultivators above the fifth Nirvana stage, and even some who had transcended.
So many top experts couldn't accomplish it, and here I am, just a little guy at the Void Realm...
"Su Xin, don't underestimate yourself," the Ninth Mountain Master said. "The three trials set by the Sixth Mountain Master have little to do with cultivation strength. They test talent, comprehension, and character. You are a true dragon-level genius, and your swordsmanship talent is the most terrifying I've ever seen."
If you were to accept the triple test, there is still a chance that you could pass it.
And most importantly, even if you don't ultimately pass the test...the process of taking the test itself will still yield many unexpected rewards.
"Oh" Su Xin's expression moved.
“Actually, this matter is still a secret to this day,” the Dao Master of Jiuxin said: “After undergoing the test, you will initially find those tests tedious and boring, with no apparent use for yourself. You might even doubt whether the Sixth Mountain Master set these tests intentionally to make things difficult for you.”
However, as long as you have patience and endure this boredom, gradually you will find that this test is still somewhat useful to you. This test is actually a special way of training.
"To be honest with you, I also tried to pass the three trials back then."
"Have you tried it too, Daozhu" Su Xin couldn't help but glance at Jiuchen Daozhu.
To this day, I still regret it. During the trial, I felt it was monotonous and a waste of time. So after barely completing the first level, I just gave up.
>But later, as my strength steadily improved, especially after I truly encountered that bottleneck, I realized the immense help that initial trial had given me. To this day, I am deeply grateful to the Sixth Mountain Master and simultaneously resent myself for not persevering in those days. The Ninth Celestial Dao Master sighed lightly.
Su Xin, you have the opportunity now, you can completely try it. If you really pass the test and become a disciple of the sixth mountain master, that would be best. Even if you don't pass, the gains you get during the testing process will definitely be of unimaginable use to your future!
And even then, although it may have taken a few years to test your talent, you will still be able to enter the sect of transcendent powerhouses.
After Jiu Chen Daozhu finished speaking, Su Xin was already moved.
Jiuchendaozhu, being a top-tier powerhouse at the peak of the Fifth Step, excelled in swordsmanship and had also guided Su Xin. Therefore, Su Xin placed immense trust in him.
Even the Dao master of Lian Jiuchen said that the test arranged by the sixth mountain master was incredibly helpful to him, so it must be true.
Moreover, the sixth mountain lord had once been acquainted with his own ancestor. He still possessed a trump card left by the sixth mountain lord for his ancestor, an amulet containing a sword intent.
Su Xin felt closer to this sixth mountain master.
Now that there was a chance to become a disciple of the Sixth Mountain Master, even though the hope was very slim, he still wanted to try.
"Master of Jiucheng Dao, how do I go about becoming your disciple" Su Xin asked.
"This is simple, you just go directly to the Sixth Sacred Mountain. When you get close to the summit, someone will stop you. At that time, just tell him you are here to become his disciple. That's all from Dao Master Jiuzhen."
Su Xin nodded and quickly went to the Sixth Holy Mountain.
……
Nine towering, cloud-piercing peaks, each one magnificent and awe-inspiring.
Su Xin arrived at the sixth giant peak, which was also at the foot of the sixth sacred mountain.
He didn't directly leap into the air towards the peak, but instead started from the base of the mountain and walked step by step along the stairs upwards.
After walking for nearly half an hour, Su Xin arrived at the location near the summit of this sixth sacred mountain, and a kind-faced bald middle-aged man had already appeared and stood in front of him.
"Little one, is something the matter"
This bald middle-aged man had a gentle smile and didn't radiate any aura or pressure. However, just standing there, Su Xin felt her whole body tremble involuntarily.
There is no doubt that this bald middle-aged man is a genuine superbeing.
"Su Xin, greetings, Lord. Su Xin first bowed respectfully, then explained his purpose: "The junior is here to ask Sixth Mountain Master to be his teacher."
"Su Xin" The bald middle-aged man smiled at Su Xin. "The one who's been causing a stir these past few days in Jiusheng Mountain, the true dragon-level genius, is you, right"
"Su Xin nodded."
"If you want to apprentice under the Mountain Master, there are rules you must understand," the bald middle-aged man said.
"Su Xin nodded again.
"
"Okay, just wait here a moment.
The middle-aged man with a shaved head went up the mountain after he finished speaking.
Su Xin stood there, respectfully waiting.
A bald middle-aged man walked onto the mountaintop and entered a cave dwelling. The cave was deep and winding, and it took the bald middle-aged man quite a while to reach a simple stone room.
This stone room contained only a simple stone bed. On the bed, sat a figure.
This is a man who, at first glance, doesn't seem to be very old, maybe in his thirties at most. He has fair skin and long hair. This man's face resembles a blade, extremely cold and aloof, with an innate arrogance.
He sat there, ordinary and unremarkable, with his eyes closed, emitting no aura, not even the faintest trace of breath. His very breathing seemed nonexistent.
"Mountain Master!"
A middle-aged bald man came to the long-haired man, who was the Sixth Mountain Master, and bowed respectfully.
"Is there something" Sixth Mountain Master didn't open his eyes, and his voice was rather indifferent.
A young cultivator from the Void Realm came up the mountain. He was a bald middle-aged Taoist who came to pay respects and become a disciple.
The sixth mountain master remained silent, as if he hadn't heard a word.
The bald middle-aged man continued, "This kid is extraordinary. He was detected as a True Dragon-level genius on the Celestial Measuring Monument. Now, many transcendental beings within Jiusheng Mountain all want him as their disciple."
Just as he treated ordinary people, the Sixth Mountain Lord remained calm and composed, without a trace of fluctuation.
True Dragon-level genius, many Transcending experts are vying to take him as a disciple.
But to the lofty "Mountain Master," he didn't hold much regard. If this genius were to one day breakthrough to the peak of the fifth step, or transcend, then he would be worthy of his attention.
The bald middle-aged man pondered for a moment, then spoke again, "Lord of the Mountain, that young boy's name is Su Xin. Unless something unexpected happens, he should be from the Su family of the Tianyan Imperial Dynasty."
"Su's family"
The Sixth Mountain Lord, whose expression had been utterly still, suddenly opened his eyes.
At the very moment his eyes opened… it was as if a divine sword had been drawn!
He transformed into a peerless divine sword, with boundless sharpness. The entire stone chamber was enveloped by an overwhelming sword intent.
"Su Li lao ge's junior"
The Sixth Mountain Lord's eyes grew deep and profound.
He was exceptionally talented. In just over a hundred years of cultivation, he had reached the peak of Dong荒, achieving the position of the sixth mountain master.
He was an orphan, with no family or support system, and he had a solitary nature. As a result, growing up, he barely made any friends.
The only true friend I have is Su Li.
Although he had died, his bond of friendship with Su Li still remained.
The Sixth Mountain Master remained seated, but his gaze had lifted, instantly piercing the cave and the boundless void, fixing upon Su Xin who stood respectfully awaiting him.
In just a glance, and without Su Xin even realizing it, the Sixth Mountain Master had completely seen through him.
The sword intent talismans I left for Elder Su Li are on him, as expected, he is indeed a descendant of Elder Su Li.
The sixth mountain master nodded silently, but abruptly, his eyes narrowed.
"Such formidable bloodline power!"
"This bloodline, that is..."
……u Xin was personally ordered by the Lord of Zichen Palace, and that Lord knows that Su Xin is the only disciple of the Sixth Mountain Master, with extraordinary talent. The Sixth Mountain Master might...
