Chapter 180: Nine Turns Holy Lotus
a slovenly appearance, looking just like a real beggar.But this beggar's hand was gripping a long sword, and at a glance one could tell it was no ordinary weapon.The members of the two rival gangs aro...From today onwards, do not have any further contact with Su Xin.
The Fourth Mountain Master's words left Xia Xianzi stunned. She replied, "Why Does Master think that even someone like Su Xin isn't worthy of me"
The fourth mountain master frowned and glanced at Xia Xianzi, secretly thinking that his disciple's character was indeed too proud and needed more polishing.
"Su Xitian possesses extraordinary talent, something I have never seen in all my years as a teacher. In terms of potential alone, he surpasses you by far. As the fourth mountain master, he is more than capable of standing beside you."
"If that's the case, then why..." Xia Xianzi was puzzled.
The Fourth Mountain Master also patiently explained.
"Disciple, let me tell you frankly, your physique is very unique and possesses great potential. This master has already arranged a path for your cultivation before. If you can follow this path and don't encounter any unexpected accidents on the way, you are destined to transcend."
There's even a 20 to 30% chance of becoming a "Mountain Master" level being.
"If you want to take this road, there are some rather demanding conditions..."
Moments later, Fairy Xia left, but her gaze had become unwaveringly resolute.
“My master is the revered mountain master, with such a broad vision. The path she has chosen for me must be the most suitable for my own constitution. According to my master, as long as I follow this path, there is a high chance that I will become a 'mountain master' in the future!”
"This Su Xin, his talent is indeed extraordinary, and he is indeed the only one in Jiushen Mountain worthy of being my husband. However, compared to becoming the esteemed mountain master, what does he amount to"
This Xia Fairy acts with lightning speed and decisiveness.
Once a decision is made, it will not be changed easily.
"For the sake of my future achievements, Su Xin, I can only disappoint you, Xia Xianzi. My mind races with thoughts."
From this day forward, this fairy Xia also began the path of seclusion and cultivation.
Meanwhile, within Mount Jiusheng, whispers and rumors also began to circulate.
"Have you heard The only direct disciple of the fourth mountain master, that fairy Xia, has gone into seclusion. Before she went into seclusion, she publicly said that before she becomes the 'Mountain Master,' she won't have any romantic involvements."
"It's not easy to become the mountain master, is it If she can't become the mountain master her whole life, wouldn't that mean she wouldn't get married her whole life"
"Didn't it used to be said that this Xia Fairy and Su Xin were very close Many people say that the two of them are both exceptionally talented, a match made in heaven. But now, what can we say"
“It is said that the summer fairy, Xia Xianzi, only wants to improve her strength and become the 'Mountain Master' as soon as possible. She has never thought about romance. It was Su Xin who kept pestering her relentlessly that she finally publicly spoke out like this.”
"Is that so"
Many people inside Jiusheng Mountain were discussing.
Some say it was Su Xin's relentless persistence that drove Xia Xianzi to make such a public statement.
And many people believed it.
The Venerable Youhu, often seen on the plaza, heard these discussions and frowned. He immediately sent a message to Su Xin.
Su Xin, however, didn't pay too much attention to it.
In the small library, Su Xin was still continuing her arduous cultivation.
After he defeated his first opponent in the swordsmanship reincarnation space, although the following battles were still mostly losses, it wasn't as dismal as before.
And as time passed, his comprehension of sword intent, including his swordsmanship, continued to steadily improve. In that space of sword dao reincarnation, he had also gradually established a firm foothold.
> Before long, another year has passed.
……
In a tavern in an open-air square, Su Xin spent an hour with several of his friends.
"Master Jiuzhen, congratulations! You have finally created a supreme technique and stepped into the ranks of the Six-Step Venerables," Su Xin smiled, genuinely happy for Master Jiuzhen.
The Lord of the Nine Stars had been stuck at the peak of the Five Steps for a long time. Just a few days ago, he finally broke through and achieved the status of a Six-Step Venerable.
And the number of Venerable Steps Six even within Mount Jiusheng is not numerous.
"Su Xin, after I left the pass, I heard some rumors that it was you and that summer fairy. What's going on between the two of you" asked the Lord Nine Stars.
Su Xin hadn't opened his mouth to answer, but Ge Meng beside him snorted coldly with dissatisfaction: "That woman, just mentioning her makes me angry. Back then, she was the one who kept getting close to Su Xin. She sent him letters and orders. But now, for some reason, she doesn't want to talk about romance anymore, so she starts slandering Su Xin."
"Su Xin has been pestering her relentlessly, refusing to give up, and many foolish people actually believe it! It's ridiculous!"
"Insult" Nine Star Dao Lord frowned.
As close friends of Su Xin, they naturally knew that Xia Xianzi had always been the one who took the initiative to find him. Su Xin had never pursued her.
"It was found by the ghost whisperer."
GeMon looked at the Venerable You Huo beside him, "That woman didn't do it on purpose. She just casually mentioned a word or two when talking to some of her fellow disciples, and the news spread."
"Why would the Summer Fairy do such a thing" Jiuzhen Daozhu wondered.
“Who knows, maybe it’s to maintain her image. After all, she is a heavenly daughter, and in the future, she will even say that she wants to become the ‘Mountain Master’. Naturally, she doesn’t want people to know that she has been actively approaching Su Xin. Instead, she would rather have it seem like Su Xin has been persistently pursuing her. That way, it can make her appear more noble and aloof,” Leng said coldly.
It is evident that he was extremely displeased with that Xia Fairy, even filled with disgust.
This is mainly to speak up for Su Xin.
Ke Su could trust himself, at this moment he was leisurely drinking wine, apparently not too concerned about this matter.
Even when he first heard these rumors, he was only slightly annoyed, but soon let it go.
He never had any real feelings for that Summer Fairy. At most, he found her appearance pleasing to the eye, but he never had any thoughts about her. Even now, with all possibility severed, he doesn't care.
And regardless of whether the other party did it intentionally or unintentionally, causing him harm, he was too lazy to retort. However, in his heart, he had already drawn a clear line between himself and Xia Xianzi, and there would be no further entanglement between them in the future.
……
In the tavern, the four of them chatted for a while.
"Su Xin, I have news about the Nine-Turn Holy Lotus seeds you asked me to find," the Venerable Youhou suddenly spoke.
"Oh" Su Xin's eyes lit up and she immediately looked over.
Nine-turn Sacred Lotus is an extremely rare natural treasure. Each time it matures, it will nurture nine lotus seeds.
These lotus seeds are invaluable and incredibly useful.
Whether it's used for alchemy or refining treasures, this is an extremely rare material. Most importantly, this sacred lotus seed has an unparalleled effect on enhancing a warrior's physical body.
Even an ordinary person, if they could obtain a lotus seed and refine it, could greatly enhance their physical strength, comparable to that of an ordinary treasure.
And within the Dong Huang land, some extremely high-level fleshly body secret arts, wanting to cultivate to a certain level, many need to use the nine turns Holy Lotus lotus seeds to assist in cultivation.
...like Su Xin's Immortal Technique....
Before he had attained the first layer, his physical body was already comparable to a top-grade magical treasure, something utterly inconceivable. Back when he was hunted in the fourth realm, the reason he could endure for so long was because of his incredibly powerful physical body.
...But the technique of inextinguishable secret arts, in the Nirvana realm stage, can be cultivated to the second level. Once it reaches the second level, the physical body is comparable to a Dao soldier and will become even more terrifying.
It's not just that cultivating the second layer requires a cultivation level above four levels of Nirvana, even the auxiliary materials needed during cultivation are more precious and rare.
Before Su Xin went to the Jiusheng Mountain Battle Glory Repository, he had already exchanged for most of the auxiliary treasures needed to cultivate the second layer of the Immortal Technique. He spent a large amount of battle glory points, but the only thing he couldn't get was the lotus seed of the Nine Turns Holy Lotus.
Unfortunately, the Nine Turns Holy Lotus seeds are not only rare but also have far too many uses. Many people need them.
Occasionally, someone inside the Jiusheng Mountain would obtain lotus seeds. As soon as the news was announced, they would immediately be bought at a high price, to the point that there were none left for redemption in the military merit warehouse.
Su Xin could only ask Youhou Venerable to help him find it.
“The lotus seeds of the Nine Turns Sacred Lotus are extremely rare. I had inquired with many people before, but none had them. However, a few days ago, news came from the Lei Xin Domain that there was a complete Nine Turns Sacred Lotus about to mature there, which has attracted many people. If you set off in the next two days, you might still be able to catch up,” said Youhou Venerable.
"Lei Xin Yu" Su Xin frowned.
Leixinyu, also one of the twenty-two domains in Donghuang Land, is located near Qixuan Domain.
Since one has crossed out of the Qingxuan domain, then it is no longer within the sphere of influence of the Jiusheng Mountain.
"Su Xin, I've already found out the news. Whether or not you go is up to you. Of course, if you're not in a hurry, you can ignore it. I'll continue to keep an eye on it. Who knows when someone inside Jiusheng Mountain might take out a Jiu Zhuan Sheng Lian lotus seed" You Hou Venerable smiled.
"Alright, thank you, Venerable Youhu. Su Xin smiled, but in his heart, a decision had already been made."
He yearned desperately to master the second layer of the Indestructible Art.
And those nine turns sacred lotus seeds, naturally must be obtained. However, this thing is too rare. If one stays in the Jiusheng Mountain all the time, who knows when another one will appear Since there is an opportunity to obtain it now, how could one miss it
Upon returning to the Sixth Sacred Mountain, Su Xin immediately went to see his master and expressed his desire to go to the Lei Xin Domain to compete for the Nine Turns Snow Lotus.
The sixth mountain master simply glanced at Su Xin and nodded in agreement.
According to the Sixth Mountain Master's wishes, Su Xin had been cultivating in the small library and the swordsmanship reincarnation space for so long, it was indeed time to go out and gain experience.
That the Azure Profound Battlefield was fraught with too many uncertainties, who knew if the Heavenly Palace would dare to continue attacking him. As for the Leixing Domain, it was a border region that, while not controlled by the Jiusheng Mountain, was also not under the control of the Heavenly Palace. To hone one's skills there, could be nothing better.
On Mount Sixth Sacred, Su Xin had already used the Black Cloud Bead to disguise his cultivation aura and alter his appearance and temperament.
After emerging from the depths of the lake, his cultivation had already reached the peak of the second step Nirvana. After three years of ascetic practice in Mount Jiusheng, his cultivation also increased significantly, having already entered the realm of the third step Nirvana. He is now at the peak of the third step.
Then, relying on the Black Cloud Orb, it emanated the aura of a peak-level Venerable at the four steps.
A purple divine sword also appeared in his hand.
After such a long silence, it's time to go out and see some blood.
Su Xin chuckled, sheathed her divine sword behind her back, and immediately headed straight for the Lei Xin domain.
Not long after Su Xin departed, that Summer Fairy also received the news.
"Nine Turns Holy Lotus Born"
Xia Xianzi's eyes were filled with excitement. "My master said that the lotus seeds of the Nine-Turns Sacred Lotus are nothing special, but the lotus itself is very beneficial to my constitution. I must get it!"
……he second step of Nirvana cultivation, and with some special means, she was able to directly confront a three-step peak powerhouse. Such a record is already among the top powerhouses within Jiushengsh...
