onk who appeared before them.These two individuals were both recorded in that genius intelligence report and were considered eligible to challenge the top fifty elite geniuses in the hunt. However, th...Within the Lake of Fire Water.

Boom! Boom! Boom! ~~

Waves of terrifying roars echoed through the heavens and earth.

Below, the lake surface trembled and sank under the force of the impact. The waters within a radius of hundreds of miles were churned up, forming wave after wave that swept outward with devastating force.

The entire battlefield was intense and chaotic.

Su Xin faced the siege of three powerful venerables alone. Even the Blood Knife King himself took action, and an array surrounded him, continuously suppressing his power. Under such circumstances, Su Xin had no capital to fight head-on and was completely suppressed by the three.

He could only be grateful that his defensive swordsmanship was superb. Even though the three people's comprehension and skills were above him, he was able to hold his own against them with his defensive swordsmanship, barely managing to fend off their attacks.

And his physical body is truly formidable as well.

"A being at the second step of Nirvana, yet so difficult to kill"

“After being surrounded and attacked by the three of us for so long, he hasn't been seriously injured at all. How strong must his flesh be”

The Blood Blade King, the Burning Fire Venerable, and the Nine Battles Venerable's expressions were all solemn during their battle.

Although Su Xin has been suppressed from the start of the conflict to now, they still feel that Su Xin is a tough opponent.

This is troublesome, primarily manifesting in Su Xin's flesh.

You have to know, facing the three of them attacking together, Su Xin could only barely hold on throughout the entire battle. But facing wave after wave of incredibly violent attacks, even if he managed to withstand them, the terrifying power contained within those attacks would repeatedly impact and shake Su Xin's body.

Even an ordinary person, or even a top-tier expert at the peak of the five steps, would probably have long since been unable to withstand it physically.

Su Xin looked to be struggling, desperately holding on. Yet, despite countless impacts and collisions, the aura surrounding him remained largely unaffected.

This kind of powerful physique is simply unbelievable.

Even the "Golden Elephant" technique, one of the three major inherited techniques of Jiusheng Mountain, which could rival artifacts in its highest level of cultivation, shouldn't be this powerful. The Burning Fire Venerable thought secretly, astonished that he remained unharmed.

"Humph!"

With a cold snort, he emanated an aura of overwhelming killing intent, like the Blood Blade King Meng charging forward as if a god of war. His blood-red battle axe slashed down suddenly.

Whoosh!

A poignant, yet horrifyingly cold crimson glow of blades suddenly flared.

It was like a breathtakingly beautiful blood moon.

but it contained a suffocatingly terrifying power.

"Ultimate learning"

Su Xin's face changed.

The cultivation level of the Sixth Step Venerable and the Fifth Step Peak Venerable is actually the same, and there isn't much difference in other aspects either.

The only significant difference is that the Six Steps Venerable Ones all created unique ultimate techniques. Once these ultimate techniques are deployed, they become completely different concepts entirely.

This strike, Su Xin dared not rely on his swordsmanship to defend anymore. Instead, he immediately cast his ultimate move, 'Star River'.

That resplendent and unparalleled Sword River, dazzling for a long time, collided head-on with the breathtakingly beautiful blood cloud in the void.

"Ding ding ding~~~"

Waves of dense clashing sounds rang out one after another, and then both Jian He and Xue Yue dissipated simultaneously. Su Xin and Blood Blade King also retreated at the same time.

Let me see, you, a mere Second-Step Nirvana Realm cultivator, how many times can you unleash your signature Blood Blade King technique With killing intent surging, you take a single step and slash down with your blade.

The stunning blood moon, once again, rose.

Damn it!

Su Xin's face looked grim.

If it were just a collision or two, Su Xin would not be afraid.

Although the Blood Blade King's ultimate technique is powerful, his own casting of the Star River Technique after using the Divine Extinction Forbidden Art doesn't make it much weaker than him.

But the key is, consummate martial arts… which are so easily performed

Each cast requires a large expenditure of true essence.

This Blood Knife King, a venerable figure at the Sixth Step, possesses vast True Essence. It's probable that he could unleash dozens of his ultimate techniques in a single battle.

And himself, no matter what he says, is still only at the Nirvana Realm. In a battle, he can only display five or six ultimate techniques before reaching his limit.

If Ke Ruo doesn't use her ultimate technique to resist...

"Bang!"

Su Xin tried to block using only defensive swordsmanship, and immediately a terrifying force traveled along his arm.

Under the terrifying might, his figure trembled slightly, a trace of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, and at the same time, his arm wielding the sword went numb.

"As expected, even with just the force of his attack after wielding his ultimate move, Blood Blade King managed to injure me. Su Xin gritted his teeth secretly."

A body comparable to a top-grade treasure's level is incredibly powerful and formidable, but it is not truly invincible.

A powerful Six-Step Venerable, relying on his Dao soldiers to unleash his ultimate techniques, could still injure him or even kill him.

Unless his cultivation level is significantly higher, and he refines the second layer of the Indestructible Secret Art, then his physical body will be comparable to that of an ordinary Dao soldier, even more resilient and powerful. At that time, don't even mention just a force impact; even if someone directly slashes him with their sword light, his fleshly body could likely withstand it.

Wow!

The Blood Knife King struck again.

The blood moon was still as magnificent as ever, bringing immense pressure to Su Xin.

And the Venerable Burning Fire and the Venerable Nine Wars also made their move simultaneously, attacking from both sides.

After another round of fighting, Su Xin's injuries worsened.

"There's no other way, I have to use my last resort."

Su Xin's eyes were cold as ice, staring at the three people in front of him. In an instant, a talisman appeared in his hand.

This token was precisely the one bestowed upon the Su family by their Sixth Mountain Master, who had done so out of gratitude to the Su family's ancestor. It contained sword intent within it.

This token has always been the Su family's biggest trump card. As long as it wasn't a matter of life and death, the Su family would never use it.

Later, as Su Xin rose to power, Su Bai handed this token to Su Xin, and it became the strongest trump card in Su Xin's hand.

But today, facing the siege of these three venerables, he exerted every ounce of his strength, using all his skills, but was still unable to escape.

At a moment of life and death, he could only use this talisman.

"You three, all die!"

Su Xinmu's eyes flashed with killing intent, and the talisman in his hand was immediately crushed by him.

And the moment Ling Fu crushed it...

A peerless sword intent that dominates the world, instantly surges into the sky!!

The world changes color!

All is quiet!

A terrifying aura of dominance, capable of tearing everything apart, filled the world.

The water in the lake below had come to a standstill.

The surging waves, all came to a standstill.

Time and space of the heavens and earth, completely fall into stagnation.

All was utterly still, and the entire world held nothing but this unparalleled and peerless sword intent.

It, is gathering unprecedented edge.

This imposing aura gradually spread, and throughout the entire Yan Shui Lake, numerous powerful figures from both sides who were adventuring all raised their heads in astonishment at this moment, looking towards the direction where this sword intent originated.

"What is that"

This sword intent...is it from a transcendent expert themselves

"No, even a Transcendent Expert wouldn't be able to cultivate to this level. This kind of power is the might of 'Mountain Lord'!"

Everyone was shocked.

That unparalleled and peerless sword intent, even from an immeasurable distance, made them tremble, and they couldn't help but want to worship it.

They could sense that sword intent, even a mere wisp of it, was enough to instantly obliterate them countless times over.

This sword intent…… That's the might of the 'Mountain Master'!!

"This is..."

"The authority of the Palace Master"

Even the Blood Blade King and Nine Battles Venerable, who stood before this peerless sword intent, showed fear at this moment.

As for the Venerable Fire Burner, he furrowed his brows and then took out a talisman as well.

This assassination of Su 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 have left him some life-saving trump cards.

So, in order to kill Su Xin completely in one go, the Purple Abyss Palace Master also gave the Burning Fire Venerable a talisman.

This also reveals his single-minded devotion within these characters.

Boom boom boom~~~~

As the Venerable Burning Fire crushed the talisman, a terrifyingly extreme destructive aura immediately surged up, forming a gigantic and boundless hand of destruction.

This devastating giant hand blotted out the sky, plunging it into utter darkness.

"Another one!!"

"What, what on earth happened"

"Could it be that the mountain master of my Jiusheng Mountain is fighting against the palace master of the Tianshen Palace"

Numerous powerful individuals who had ventured into Yan Shui Lake were all stunned at this moment.

They could feel that in that direction, an unparalleled sword intent and a terrifying destructive force had already converged, and the two were about to come into direct contact.

On Mount Jiusheng, on the sixth peak, the Sixth Mountain Master, who had been meditating with his eyes closed in a stone chamber, opened his eyes at this moment. His gaze pierced through the void directly, looking towards the direction of Yan Shui Lake.

Inside the Heavenly Palace, the grandest of all temples, even Zichen, the Palace Master who sat casually upon his throne, also looked up.

Sword intent and the Annihilation Palm collided head-on.

But there was no earth-shattering roar or clash as imagined, only a hissing sound of

unbridled power dissolving into each other.

Within the Firelake... Crackling and popping!

As if the heavens and earth were splitting apart!!

Then the void directly split open, revealing spatial fissures that stretched for hundreds of meters.

Large swaths of space were torn apart by chaotic currents, with flashes of lightning dancing and flickering within them. It was evident that even heaven and earth could not bear the terrifying power of these two forces.

The lake surface below, the lake water directly melts and evaporates.

Under the collision of boundless might, a terrifying hurricane swept forth.

For a moment, the entire Lake of Flame Water was plunged into disaster, resembling a scene from the apocalypse.

can be very fast...

That gigantic hand, radiating an aura of utter annihilation, began to show a crack in its center as the unparalleled sword intent ripped through it.

"What"

The Purple Palace Master, who was sitting in the majestic temple, suddenly changed his expression.

After a crack appeared in the center of the destroying giant hand, it immediately started to spread wildly. Cracks appeared one after another, and began to spread crazily. The entire giant palm could no longer withstand the pressure and finally began to collapse.

The overwhelming aura of destruction swept wildly in all directions.

And that supreme sword intent, however, remained fierce and powerful, slashing straight ahead.

"How is that possible" Zichen Palace Master suddenly stood up.

He personally wielded that devastating palm strike, but it was shattered head-on by that sword intent

"Impossible!!"

The Blood Blade King, the Fire Burning Venerable, and the Nine Battles Venerable, all shrouded in the supreme sword intent, let out hysterical roars at this moment.

Their eyes were filled with shock, anger, and despair, but more than that... it was disbelief!!

…… the people from Jiuyou Mansion who were in the wrong first. And our Baijianmen suffered far greater losses than them. How come after the incident, we're the ones who have to go and apologize In this...
