Chapter 186: Blood-Cloaked Marquis

tic blood-red sun, felt a primal fear gripping him. But more than that, he felt excitement.That kind of excitement only comes when you meet a true opponent who can push you to your absolute limits.Thi...After leaving Jingyue Lake, Su Xin continued on his journey.

"The process of capturing the Holy Lily's lotus seeds was surprisingly easy," Su Xin laughed.

It was very easy for him. He obtained the lotus seed right at the beginning, and afterward, he was only hindered by those three Bone Kings.

And when he faced them, he crushed his three great Bone Kings, and after that, no one dared to stop him.

Of course, the reason for this is that the lotus itself originally had nine seeds, and he only obtained two of them.

Moreover, although lotus seeds are precious and those who desire them yearn for them greatly, it doesn't drive them to a frenzied desperation, to the point of risking their lives to obtain them.

If it were like when Su Xin obtained that enlightenment in the Tianshui Secret Realm, its allure would be too great, causing everyone to vie for it at all costs. In that case, he wouldn't have an easy time escaping unscathed.

"Hmm"

Su Xin's eyebrows furrowed suddenly, her spiritual consciousness sensing the two people chasing after her.

After a moment's contemplation, Su Xin stopped his steps in the midst of a forest.

He had just stopped when the Three-Axe Venerable, wielding a giant axe, arrived before him.

"Your Honor, I do not covet the lotus in your hand. I only desire the Sacred Lotus. Give me the Sacred Lotus, and I will leave at once," the Third Axe Venerable stated directly.

He didn't dare to forcefully seize it directly.

Just now, at Lake Jingyue, Su Xin's displayed ability also caught his eye. He felt that he didn't have a chance to win.

Just the Sacred Lily

Su Xin glanced at the Three Axes Venerable before him. He could guess that these Three Axes Venerables were vying for the Holy Lotus, not for himself, but for his junior sister, the Xia Fairy.

The Nine-Turn Sacred Lotus is most prized for its nine lotus seeds, but the lotus itself is also an incredibly rare treasure with many uses. It's just that it cannot be preserved, which leads to few people wanting to obtain it.

Su Xin estimated that the Summer Fairy wanted to obtain the Sacred Lotus because it was probably beneficial to her constitution.

"Master Three Axes, I'll wait for the one behind you to arrive before we talk," Su Xin said calmly.

Master Sān Fǔ frowned slightly.

Shortly after, the graceful and beautiful Xia Xianzi appeared before the two.

"Junior Sister, how did you get here" asked Master San Fu.

Xia Xianzi did not answer. Instead, with a complex expression on her face, she looked at the cold and stern young man in front of her who radiated the aura of a peak-level cultivator from the Four Steps.

"You, are Su Xin" Xia Xianzi opened her mouth.

"

‘What’ The Venerable Sanshan couldn’t help but be astonished.

"

Su Xin, of course, he knew the name.

Jiusheng Mountain's contemporary absolute first genius, a few years ago caused a great stir in the fourth realm. At that time, because of the assassination by Tianshen Palace, the entire Jiusheng Mountain was utterly enraged.

At first, Su Xin was merely at the peak of the Four Steps. Even against an ordinary Five Steps Nirvana Lord, he could only barely hold his own.

Could this person before us be someone who directly faced and severely wounded the Three Bone Kings, even making him fear them Could it be Su Xin

Impossible

The Three Axes Venerable couldn't believe it.

It was me, Su Xin who nodded and admitted it directly.

Since Xia Xianzi was able to recognize him, he wasn't surprised. After all, they had met several times before.

"Really" San Fu Venerable's eyes widened, his face full of alarm.

You know, just a few years ago, Su Xin was still being hunted by the Blood Knife King, the Burning Fire Venerable, and the Nine Wars Venerable. But how long has it been since then

Even he felt like he couldn't win.

This rate of progress is simply too exaggerated.

Suxin

Xia Xianzi's gaze was somewhat complicated, but she still spoke, "You only want the lotus seed of the sacred lotus. That sacred lotus shouldn't be of any use to you. Could you give it to me"

"Here you go"

Su Xin sneered, "Fairy Xia, you speak so easily. This Sacred Lotus is indeed of little use to me, but it was something I struggled hard to win from many powerful beings. Now, you want to just brush it aside with a single word"

Before they fell out, a sacred lily that was of no use to him would have been given freely.

Now the two of them are completely at odds.

This summer fairy, with a light and airy sentence, wants to leave. What a joke.

I won't take yours for nothing. I can exchange my military achievements for Xia Xianzi's Taoism.

"Military merit points Su Xin only nodded after hearing this, "Tell me, how many military merit points do you have"

"One million, how about it" Xia Xianzi said.

Hearing this, Su Xin smiled, "Fairy Xia, do you really think I've never seen the world One million battle points, and you want to take that Holy Lotus"

"Junior sister" Master Sān Fǔ also frowned and glanced at Fairy Xià.

One million battle merits, for the numerous Nirvana Realm cultivators of Jiusheng Mountain, including many Five-Step Nirvana Venerables, was indeed a massive sum. However, at this moment, Su Xin, without a doubt, possessed the combat power of an Eastern Waste Venerable.

With such strength, a casual attack could kill someone at the peak of the Five Steps Realm. The military merit points earned would probably be more than this million.

This price is indeed too low.

"Then, how many battle merit points would it take for you to exchange the Holy Lotus with my Xia Fairy"

"Ten million battle points," Su Xin stated directly.

“This price…” Sanfu Venerable pondered for a moment, then said, “Su Xin, the use of Jiuzhuan Shenglian is quite significant, but it cannot be preserved. Within Jiusheng Mountain, only those who urgently need Jiuzhuan Shenglian would spend a large amount of military merit points to purchase it. However, its estimated value is probably around six to seven million military merit points.”

The price you offered is a bit high.

"How much" Su Xin coldly glanced at Xia Xianzi.

He doesn't really think the price is high.

He still held back because he knew they were all from the Nine Sacred Mountains, and this Xia Xianzi was the only direct disciple of the fourth mountain master. He gave the fourth mountain master face by not demanding a huge price, willing to let Xia Xianzi exchange for ten million battle merits.

Otherwise, given Xia Xianzi's slander against him over the past year, he could simply demand a reward of three to five million battle points and it wouldn't be excessive.

Okay, one million battle points.

Xia Xianzi didn't hesitate, "However, I only have about one million military merit points on hand right now. You and I can make a deal first. I can swear that after returning to Jiusheng Mountain, I will return the remaining military merit points to you as soon as possible."

"He didn't want to force Xia Xianzi, but he just wanted to make her trust him."

Moreover, this Summer Fairy is too proud inside. She shouldn't betray her oath for mere millions of battle merits.

Soon Su Xin took out the holy lotus, and Xia Xianzi also took out a Universe Ring containing various treasures worth about one million military merit points. Su Xin was too lazy to count them and quickly completed the exchange.

"Su Xin, I've heard for a long time that Jiusheng Mountain has gained a peerless genius who even troubled the Heavenly God Palace to the point of sleepless nights and would do anything to kill. Today, I finally get to meet him. And upon seeing you, hmmm, your talent is truly astonishing." The Three Axes Venerable walked forward, smiling with admiration.

"Venerable Sanda, when we return to Jiusheng Mountain, I'd like to invite you for a drink." Su Xin also smiled.

> "Master Xing Sanfu nodded in agreement."

Su Xin and Xia Xianzi have a personal grudge, but he has no major connection with the Third Axe Venerable.

Su Xin was still very polite and respectful to the Three Axes Venerable, including the Fourth Mountain Master.

Just then...

"Huh"

Su Xin suddenly frowned and looked in the direction of Jingyue Lake.

Within the scope of his spiritual awareness, a figure was dashing towards him at an astonishing speed.

In a flash, he arrived before his face.

"Ha ha, sure enough, the hearty laughter is still here, echoing through these woods."

"The Blood-cloaked Marquis"

Su Xin and the Three Axes Venerable both looked at the arrival.

The person who came was none other than Blood-robed Marquis, ranked 67th on the Eastern Desolation Venerable List.

He was just competing at Jingyue Lake, and after winning a lotus seed, he immediately chased after Su Xin's direction.

"Is Master Sanzang here too"

The Blood-Robed Marquis only glanced at the Three Axes Venerable, but he didn't pay him any attention. Instead, he focused his gaze on Su Xin, "I wonder, young brother, what is your name"

"Mount Jiusheng, Su Xin Su Xindao."

He had no intention of hiding his identity, nor any need to.

"You're from Jiusheng Mountain too" Blood Robe Hou couldn't help but sigh, "As expected of one of the top powers in the Eastern Wasteland, there are indeed many strong individuals."

He knew that among the Nirvana Venerables within Mount Jiusheng, the strongest was the Nine Dream Dao Venerable. That figure ranked highly on the Eastern Desolation Venerables List and was much stronger than him.

Though weaker than him, the Three Axes Venerable is also a renowned figure on the Eastern Desolation Venerables List.

And while Su Xin is not on the Dong荒 Venerable List, his recently displayed strength suggests he could be even stronger than the Three-Axe Venerable.

For a single sect within the same era to have three individuals ranked on the Eastern Desolation Honored List, this level of strength can only be achieved by the top powers in the Eastern Desolation.

"Su Xin, I didn't come here to steal the lotus from your hand. Seeing you defeat the three Bone Kings of Gu Shenzong with just one glance, I knew you were powerful, so I came to have a fair fight with you. Would you be willing" Xue Yi Hou smiled.

"Aren't you competing for the Lotus seeds Just testing each other" Su Xin's heart moved, and he immediately understood.

In this world, many people are naturally combative and yearn to spar with equally strong opponents.

Especially some extremely powerful masters, in a certain area, it is almost difficult to find opponents of the same level. Naturally, they are even more eager to encounter evenly matched powerful opponents for a battle.

This Blood-Robed Marquis before us is clearly such a person.

And when Su Xin heard Xue Yi Hou proactively challenge him, his heart was also filled with excitement and fervor.

He, having been silent for four years, had been practicing diligently for the past three years.

He knew his strength had improved immensely, but he wasn't sure what level he was at now. Compared to the powerful figures on the Eastern Desolate Venerable List, where did he stand He had no idea.

Before the still waters of Jingyue Lake, though he had severely injured the Insect Deer Venerable and directly defeated three Bone Kings, that was not all of his power.

He also wanted to find a powerful expert and have a good battle, at the same time verifying his current strength.

But the Bloodcloaked Marquis before him, ranked 67th on the Eastern Desolation Venerable List, such a powerful figure is naturally the most suitable opponent for him.

"If you want to fight, then fight!"

Su Xin let out a low growl, and the divine sword in his hand immediately emitted a sword cry.

A surge of battle intent rose instantly.

……led Su Xin into the first level of the attic.This first level attic, on one side are towering bookshelves, filled with countless books, while on the other is a clearing. The clearing faintly emanates...
