Chapter 182: Lingering Souls

antly changed his expression upon hearing the three words "Jiusheng Mountain," "Great Master, you actually came from Jiusheng Mountain"Even Xia Mang, who was standing at the back, showed surprise when..."He, he doesn't have any weapons like gloves on his hands He's completely unarmed"

"When a Venerable of Five-Step Nirvana brandished his sword, he was unexpectedly caught barehanded"

"How is that possible"

Everyone inside the tea stall was looking at the scene before them in disbelief.

"You..."

Even the silver-robed man wielding the knife was now full of astonishment.

The war sword in his hand, though not a magic weapon, was nonetheless a top-grade treasure. He had just unleashed it with all his might, its power was awe-inspiring!

The person in front of me caught it with bare hands.

What kind of skill is this

"I'm enjoying my tea here just fine. If you want to fight, go do it outside. Don't come in here and bother me." Su Xin coldly glanced at the man in silver robes, then gripped the hilt of his sword with all his might. In an instant, the man in silver robes was sent flying backwards with several steps.

After regaining his footing, the man in silver felt a chill run down his spine. However, at that moment, he realized the elderly swordsman he had intended to kill was already fleeing towards the tea stall outside.

“Old thief, where are you going!” The man in silver robes shouted, immediately chasing after him.

"After making a move, you want to leave" With a wave of her hand, the purple-clad woman named Qiluo from Wanshimen immediately chased two strong men out of the tavern.

A few more people began fighting fiercely outside.

Inside the teahouse, no one paid any attention to the fighting outside anymore. Instead, all eyes were focused on Su Xin.

"This person is so strong!"

"To be able to grab the weapons of a Five-Step Nirvana Venerable with bare hands, this kind of strength, even an ordinary Six-Step Venerable would probably not be able to do it. Moreover, his physical body must also be extremely powerful."

Based on his aura alone, he's only at the peak of the Four Steps A peak Four Steps, so strong

People inside the tea stall were whispering among themselves.

But at one table, the three Bone Kings from Gu Shenzong gathered together. At this moment, their eyes were all focused on Su Xin, and the faces of the three were extremely solemn.

"Boss, could you have caught that person's knife with your bare hands just now" the Second Bone King asked.

The First Bone King fell silent for a moment, then slowly shook his head. "After all, it was a full-power strike from a Five Steps Nirvana Venerable. If I tried to catch it with my bare hands, I might be able to grab it, but my palms would definitely be injured. But this person... clearly didn't suffer any harm."

"His strength is formidable, he's absolutely at the top among the Six-Step Venerables. And his physical body is terrifying! My fleshly strength is only barely approaching the level of a top-grade treasure, but his physical body can completely rival a top-tier treasure, even a top-quality treasure!"

"Such a terrifying fleshly body" The Second Bone King and the Third Bone King looked at each other, both of them were incredibly shocked.

Their Gu Shenzong's Jinshen secret art is already a top-tier fleshly body secret art. The three of them, especially the first Bone King, have cultivated this secret art to the third stage. Their physical bodies are close to top-grade magic treasures. This is already incredibly terrifying.

Now, they actually saw a physical being far stronger than them.

This person, should also be the First Bone King Dao who came for that sacred lotus seed.

“A peak in four steps, yet his fleshly body is so formidable. I've never heard of such a thing before, nor do I know where he came from” The Second Bone King’s eyes were somewhat dark.

"Whoever he is, we three must get the lotus seeds of that Nine-Turn Holy Lotus. We at least need to get three out of the nine seeds. If this person dares to obstruct us, just kill him!" said the third Bone King with a fierce expression.

……

When everyone around was shocked by his strength, Su Xin himself was quite calm.

He was just an ordinary Fifth Step Nirvana Venerable, wielding only a top-grade secret treasure weapon. Su Xin cultivated the Undying Art, his physical body alone could rival a top-grade secret treasure, and in terms of power and might, he was many times stronger than that silver-robed man just now. Naturally, it was simple for him to grab the man's weapon with his bare hand.

Outside Jingyue Lake, more and more powerful individuals are gathering.

By now, there are already dozens of Six Step Venerables who have arrived, and there are even more Five Step Nirvana Venerables.

At this time...

"It's Venerable Shan Yi!"

Master Chan was here.

Suddenly, a commotion arose around Lake Jingyue. Su Xin, who had been sitting idly at the tea stall, raised his head and looked outward.

Only a frail old man in a gray robe could be seen slowly falling to the ground from the void. This frail old man had a gentle face, giving people an incredibly kind and friendly feeling.

Master Shan Yi was one of the most renowned and powerful Nirvana Lords within the Lei Xin Domain. On the Eastern Desolate Lord's List, he ranked 134th. Su Xin narrowed his eyes slightly.

The Eastern Desolation Venerable List is a ranking of Nirvana Venerables' strength compiled by the Wanxiang Pavilion, one of the six overlords of the Eastern Desolation, through the collection of a large amount of information.

That list compiled the 150 most powerful Nirvana Venerables within the Eastern Wasteland. Each one of them was among the top-tier Nirvana Venerables, possessing terrifying strength and methods.

They almost all have mastered the complete realm of artistic conception.

Some of the created ultimate techniques were incredibly powerful...

Some cultivated a particularly terrifying kind of secret art...

or perhaps they possessed a bloodline blessed with…

In short, anyone who can be on the Eastern Waste Venerable List is not easy to underestimate. They all possess the ability to easily kill a sixth-step Venerable. If they are ranked higher, it would be nothing for one person to sweep through a group of sixth-step Venerables.

There are even rumors that the top ten on the Eastern Desolation Venerable List are all capable of directly confronting Transcendent powerhouses, they are absolutely monstrous existences in the Eastern Desolation.

And this Great Master Shan Yi ranked 134th on the Eastern Wilderness Venerable List. Although his ranking was relatively low, his strength was undeniable.

Like the Bloodknife King who was sent to the Fourth Realm by the Heavenly Palace back then, and the Bichemo尊 (who could rank in the top three among the Nirvana Lords on Mount Jiusheng), they were both extremely powerful figures among the Six-Step Lords. However, they were only approaching the Eastern Wilderness Venerable List. It was obvious that there was still a huge gap between them and this Shanyi Venerable.

“I have cultivated for three years, my strength has increased tremendously. I believe that an ordinary Six-Step Venerable would not be my opponent. However, the strong ones on the Eastern Desolation Venerable List are said to be monsters, and I don't know what would happen if I faced this Venerable Shan Yi.”

Su Xin thought to himself, but there was a hint of anticipation in his heart.

Under the arrangement of his sixth master, he had been cultivating for three years. Adding to that the year and a half he spent in the abyss at the heart of the lake, it had been a long time since he had truly fought someone with all his might.

Even within that kendo reincarnation space, it was merely a contest of swordsmanship and techniques, not a full-fledged battle.

Now, he truly yearns to meet a worthy opponent and have a good battle.

And thus, Master Shan Yi, being able to be listed on the Eastern Wasteland Venerable List, clearly has the qualifications to stand against his opponents.

"Well met, venerable one!"

"I've met Master Zenichi!"

After Venerable Zhiyi appeared on the shores of Jingyue Lake, many familiar faces approached to greet him, and he responded with warmth.

"Master Shan Yi, you seem to have quite the network of connections," Su Xin chuckled, then continued sipping her tea.

An hour later.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Two figures suddenly dropped by the lake. At first, these two people didn't cause much of a stir, but as one of them was recognized...

"Master of Three Axes! He is Master of Three Axes from Mount Jiusheng!!"

"Three Axes Venerable The number one hundred and tenth on the Eastern Wilderness Venerable List"

Even the strong from Mount Liújiǔ have come

The surroundings of Jingyue Lake immediately became bustling again.

Although Sanzhu Venerable came from the Qingxuan Domain, his fame in the Leixin Domain was not as great as that of Shan Yi Venerable, even though he ranked higher on the Dong荒 Supreme List. Naturally, not many people recognized him.

Once it was recognized, it immediately attracted the attention of many powerful figures present.

"Even you, Master Sanshu" Venerable Shan Yi walked up at that moment.

"Shan Yi, long time no see. Even Master Sanzhuan greeted you. This Master Shan Yi is quite popular, it seems he knows many people before as well."

"Who is this person beside you" Shanyi looked at Xia Xianzi beside him.

"She is my junior disciple," said Sān Fǔ, the Venerable. "I have come this time to vie for the Jiǔ Zhuǎn Shèng Lián on her behalf. As for the nine lotus seeds of the Sacred Lotus, I will not participate in the competition."

"Only for the Holy Lotus" Master Zenyi's heart stirred.

The Nine-Turn Holy Lotus, the most precious of which are its nine lotus seeds when fully mature.

As for the sacred lotus itself, although it is also a rare treasure of heaven and earth with some considerable uses, because it is too difficult to preserve, the strong people present are not very eager for the sacred lotus.

"If Venerable Sanshēn all you need is the Sacred Lotus, I believe no one would contest you for it," said Venerable Shanyi with a smile.

"May it be so," said the venerable Three-Axes Master with a slight nod of his head.

But Su Xin, who was sitting casually in a corner by the lake, had already noticed the arrival of the Three Axes Venerable.

"The Third Axe Venerable of Mount Jiusheng"

Su Xin had also heard the name of the Three Axes Venerable within Mount Jiusheng.

These three axes venerables are one of the registered disciples of the Fourth Mountain Master. Among the many Nirvana Venerables in Jiusheng Mountain, they can definitely rank in the top three, to be precise, he should be ranked second, and he is also a top powerhouse listed on the Eastern Desolation Venerable List.

And at the same time, Su Xin also noticed the presence of Xia Xianzi beside San Fu Venerable.

"She actually came" Su Xin's face darkened slightly.

After those rumors and gossip arose from within Mount Jiusheng, Su Xin's relationship with this Xia Fairy had become very strained.

Although they haven't publicly fallen out, Su Xin no longer has any good feelings for this woman.

Even before, when this woman said she gave him a keepsake as a thank you, including the messaging talisman she gave later, he just threw them away.

I didn't want anything to do with her anymore, but unexpectedly, she showed up in the competition for the Nine Turns Sacred Lotus.

"Such a persistent ghost, isn't it"

Su Xin's eyes were cold. "It's fine, there are so many people here, and I have my master's Black Cloud Bead to change my cultivation aura and appearance. She should not recognize me for now. Even if she does, it doesn't matter much. As for the competition for the Nine Turns Sacred Lotus, we'll just see who is capable enough at that time."

Su Xin was thinking, suddenly…

"It's lively here, isn't it

A burst of hearty laughter rang out, and numerous powerful figures surrounding Jingyue Lake immediately turned their attention to the source.

When the appearance of the arrival was clearly seen, most of the strong people present showed astonishment on their faces.

……d the essence of six or seven realms, could severely injure or even kill them with a single blow."Leave it to me, Su Xin," he said with a nod."Su Xin, these three are extraordinary in strength. We'd b...
