or sword intent, he progressed very quickly.Even before he started his hunting practice, he could understand a hint of the Dao while in the Zhenwu Realm simply by exploring on his own volition without...Inside the hidden space.

"Done!"

As the last restriction was broken, surprise lit up the faces of Su Xin, Ge Mon, Hong Fu Venerable, and Huo Chen Venerable.

I have to admit, the powerful being who set these restrictions was incredibly strong. Even though they were just casually laid down, it took all four of us ten full days to finally break them.

The four of them hurriedly stepped forward, taking the Universe Ring from the halo and then examining it.

Upon seeing this, the eyes of all four people immediately lit up.

There are too many things inside this Universe Ring.

A wide variety of cultivation resources, auxiliary treasures, strange and numerous, with extremely high levels.

Like a soldier's pack, there are over ten items inside.

There are still many things they can't recognize and can only roughly estimate their value.

"Indeed, it is a treasure trove that countless powerful beings in the Fourth Realm covet."

"If all of this were converted into military merit points, how much would it be worth"

All four of them were a little excited.

The secret technique originated from a destroyed sect. That sect had several transcendent powerhouses throughout its history.

Although the powerful individual who initially hid the treasure may have brought out only a portion of the treasures accumulated over generations by their faction, and further divided that portion into dozens of shares, what they received was merely one of those shares.

For the Venerable Hongfu and Venerable Huochin, both being Five Step Nirvana Venerables, this represents an unimaginable fortune.

As for Ge Meng and Su Xin, it's the same story.

"Huh What's this..." Su Xin suddenly noticed a treasure inside the Qiankun Ring.

At once, with a flick of his hand, the treasure appeared in his grasp.

This is a blue bead imbued with a faint trace of lightning power.

This bead, Su Xin recognizes, is exactly the Yin Lei Bead. He has seen it before while venturing on the battlefield, and not just once.

The Yin Lei Zhu Ke Su had seen before, even at its most powerful explosion, was equivalent to the full strength of a peak Stage Four expert. It posed no threat to him at all.

And now the Yinlei Pearl in his hand hadn't exploded yet. Just held in his palm, the invisible destructive aura it emanated caused the faces of the surrounding Hongfu Venerable, Huochen Venerable, and Gai Meng to change drastically. Even Su Xin felt a shiver run down his spine.

"This is, the highest level Yinlei Pearl!!"

"My God!"

Hongfu Venerable and Huocheng Venerable both widened their eyes.

The Yin Thunder Pearl, the higher its level, the stronger its power and the more astonishing its value.

...In the battle merit treasury of Mount Jiusheng, even a single Yinlei Orb at the highest tier would cost one million battle merit points to redeem!

One million battle merits are required to exchange for the highest-tier Yinlei Bead. If this were to explode, its terrifying power... It would likely kill someone like me, an ordinary five-step Nirvana Venerable, instantly.

Even those at the peak of the Five Steps, if their reaction is not timely enough, a sudden attack could still kill them instantly. At worst, they would be severely injured. Hong Fu respected remarked.

While Su Xin listened, his heart stirred.

Even five-step peak experts could very likely be killed by this top-tier Yin Lei Bead. If used well, it's a true killer move!

"That's a good thing," Su Xin smiled and directly took the Yin Lei Bead.

The red-robed Venerable and the Venerable Fire Dust, seeing this, though their eyes were filled with longing, did not say anything.

It was already agreed before that this time, for the treasures found in the hidden vault, Su Xin would take 60% of the spoils, and he also got to pick out the best items first.

Soon, the six people quickly went through the treasures hidden in there and estimated their approximate value.

"With all these treasures combined, it should be no problem to exchange for seven million battle merits," Hongfu Venerable chuckled.

"Seven million military merits..." Su Xin, Gaemon, and Lord Huochen all laughed.

Inside the Qingxuan battlefield, an ordinary Five-Step Nirvana Venerable, if their entire fortune was converted into war merit points, would probably be around three to four hundred thousand war merit points.

And those who stand at the pinnacle of the Five Steps, their wealth is even greater. They generally have a few million battle merits. Some Five Steps powerhouses with stronger strength or more accumulated wealth, like Jiucheng Daozhu, who has half a foot in the Sixth Step, may possess tens of millions or even more battle merits.

Seven million battle merit points, which already surpass the total wealth of many Five-Step Pinnacle Venerables.

With such a harvest, all four of them were already very satisfied with the hidden treasure.

After estimating the approximate value, the four people began to distribute it according to the previously agreed-upon proportions.

It was very fair, and everyone was quite polite and didn't quibble.

After the distribution was complete, the four left the secret chamber.

……

The four returned to the surface of the lake.

"This time, thank you both," Su Xin said to the Hongfu Venerable and Huochen Venerable before him.

"Haha, my friend, you're too kind. This time, the two of us were truly fortunate thanks to your help and received quite a bit."

That is.

Hongfu Venerable and Huochin Venerable both smiled.

They only spent ten days cracking the restrictions within the hidden treasure, and as a result, the treasures they divided were worth far more than both of their combined fortunes.

They would love for this to happen many times.

Master Hongfu and Master Huochin left.

"Su Xin, what will you do next Will you continue to explore the Fourth Realm or return to Jiusheng Mountain" Ge Mon asked.

When he was alone, he still called himself Su Xin.

"Go back, Su Xindao."

He came to the Fourth Realm for the purpose of killing Situ Feng. Obtaining the secret treasure map and the pure secret treasure were merely accidental.

As for venturing into the fourth realm, he wasn't particularly interested.

At most, I just want to wait until the future when I transcend and have enough strength before going to see that lake's heart abyss.

He was very curious to know what, in the depths of that lake's heart, was calling him.

“This time, our harvest was quite substantial. After we get back, let's exchange all those treasures for military merit points first. Then, we can use these military merit points to exchange for the necessary treasures to enhance our strength. Afterward, I'll invite Jiuxing Daozhu, and we'll have a good celebration to commemorate Su Xin.”

"Of course we should celebrate, but I'm still the guest. This time, I took advantage of you big time! How could I let you spend any more money" Gaemon said with a smile.

"He smiled and didn't insist."

It's clear that both of them are in high spirits.

Unbeknownst to the two of them, a unprecedented crisis was about to unfold.

……

Within the Yan Shui Lake, a vast number of powerful figures from both camps roamed freely.

Su Xin and Ge Meng easily encountered powerful opponents from the enemy camp on their way back.

This is also a Five-Step Nirvana Venerable.

"Second Step Nirvana Realm"

"It's Kenichi!"

There was no need for physical contact, only sensing his aura from afar. The Fifth Step Nirvana Master immediately confirmed Su Xin's identity.

Unfortunately, within the Flaming Water Lake, those at the Four Steps Peak and even the Five Steps Nirvana Realm are quite common. However, for the Two Steps Nirvana Realm, besides Su Xin, there is none other.

"Venerable Fire..."

This Venerable Five Steps Nirvana immediately sent a message.

In one area of Yan Shui Lake, three top experts, Blood Knife King, Burning Fire Venerable, and Nine Battles Venerable, stood together.

"I found the sword, right over there. It's not far from us," the Burning Fire Venerable pointed towards a direction.

We have arrived at Yan Shui Lake for several days, this sword only now reveals itself. It seems he has obtained the secret treasure. The Nine War Venerable laughed.

"Just do it, kill him, and get back to report to Blood King." the

then seemed very cold.

Killing a mere little fellow from the Second Step of Nirvana Realm, this Blood Saber King doesn't really pique my interest.

The Three Great Venerables immediately set off.

……

The vast lake surface, the sky clear for miles.

Su Xin and Ge Meng walked side by side, both quite relaxed.

Just then...

"Hmm"

Su Xin and Gaemon almost simultaneously noticed something. Both of them immediately raised their heads to look in the direction next to them.

They had all sensed it in their hearts—three terrifying auras were rapidly approaching their location.

Su Xin's confidence immediately gave way to a primal sense of crisis.

"Not good!" Su Xin's heart sank.

"That's... Burning Fire Venerable, Nine Battles Venerable, the last one is actually Blood Knife King"

"My goodness!!"

Ge Meng's expression changed drastically.

The Venerable Burning Fire and the Venerable Nine Battles are both highly renowned in the Azure Profound Battlefield, possessing immense strength as peak Five Steps Venerables.

As for the Blood Saber King, he was even more terrifying. It is said that among the Six Steps Venerables, he was at the very top level.

Such three venerable ones came all at once...

"Run!"

Geralt shrieked in agony and, with a burst of inhuman speed, fled frantically forward.

Su Xin also immediately fled.

He is not stupid either. Under normal circumstances, without the presence of a five-step peak powerhouse in the fourth realm, he wouldn't have any need to fear anything.

But now, with two at the peak of the Five Steps and one among the Six Steps Venerables, they are terrifyingly powerful superhumans. Three of them joining forces to attack him What qualifications does he have to resist

The only thing to do is to frantically flee at the first opportunity.

"Want to escape"

The Blood Blade King, the Burning Fire Venerable, and the Nine Battles Venerable all had icy gazes.

Of the three, Jiu Zhan Zun was the fastest. His figure moved like a ghost through the void, and the distance between them rapidly decreased at an astonishing speed.

"Oh no, Gai got scared and covered his face."

The three of them must have the same goal as me, Su Xin. I am equally anxious and nervous, but my heart remains absolutely calm.

He knew very well that Ge Meng was just an ordinary peak Four Steps Venerable, and he hadn't even entered the core circle of Nine Saints Mountain. It was impossible to have such a huge attraction that would cause three incredibly powerful venerables to join forces and attack him.

As the only one, being a true dragon-level genius and the disciple of the sixth mountain master, even with his previous identity as 'Sword One', he had demonstrated extraordinary strength, even displaying his ultimate technique. This is what made it possible for him to be targeted by the Heavenly Palace.

"Geralt, scatter!"

Su Xin let out a low growl and immediately changed direction.

Knowing the other party was coming for him alone, naturally he didn't want to implicate Ge Meng.

As if in response to his change of direction, the three great venerables behind him immediately shifted course and charged towards him.

As for Gammon, no one paid him any attention.

Those three venerables didn't even consider Gu Mang.

Whoosh!

GeMON escaped from Shengtian and stopped on a lake, watching the three Zun who were frantically chasing Su Xin at the end of his vision.

“Su Xin...”

Geralt's face turned ashen, and he immediately drew out a series of talismans, beginning to summon aid from the Nine Saints Mountain.

"The Holy Lord, Blood Blade King, Burning Flame Venerable, and Nine Battles Venerable have all appeared in the Fourth Realm. They are now frantically hunting down Su Xin, the peerless genius of my Jiusheng Mountain!"

"Jiucheng, quickly tell the Saint Lord behind you that Su Xin is in big trouble!"

"Crimson float…"

Ge Mon sent messages to all the powerful individuals, hoping to inform the strongest masters of Mount Qingsheng as quickly as possible and urge them to respond or provide rescue immediately.

If Jiushengshan's methods were used, and the rescue was timely, there might still be a sliver of hope to save Su Xin.

……pped, and his brows furrowed.He had mastered the Flying Blood Sword Art long ago, and his proficiency was extremely high. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it peerless. He could perform each of t...
