ter a single strike, the imposing middle-aged warrior in armor did not press his attack. Instead, he halted mid-air."Wild clouds!"The armored, burly middle-aged man's other companion had also walked o...Su Xin didn't know that a single Blood Lotus Fruit had caused such a huge uproar, leading to the deaths of tens of thousands of people.

To him, cultivating himself and enhancing his strength is the most important thing.

Inside the room, Su Xin sat cross-legged. On the wall hung the painting of Sword Rain Scroll.

On the scroll, there were a total of 381 raindrops. Su Xin was focusing intently on comprehending the eighth raindrop at the very bottom.

An hour later, Su Xin opened his eyes.

"This Jian Yu scroll has had a greater impact on me than I imagined," Su Xin smiled.

Before accepting the trial missions, he had already comprehended the essence of seven sword intents and had a slight understanding of the eighth.

Returning to Tianyan Palace, he received this Jianyu scroll. However, after contemplating it for an hour, he gained a deeper understanding of the essence of the eighth sword intent.

If he continues to comprehend at this rate, it probably won't be long before he fully grasps the essence of the eighth sword intent.

Even the ninth sword intent's essence, with the Sword Rain Scroll assisting in comprehension, shouldn't take too long.

This kind of comprehension speed is simply astonishing.

But Su Xin himself knew that ever since his bloodline awakened, his comprehension had been greatly developed. Whether it was understanding swordsmanship 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 any guidance.

At only twenty years old, he was able to surpass all other prodigies and claim the top spot in the hunt... Now that he has entered the Tianyan Palace for cultivation, with complete guidance and the assistance of various cultivation resources, his comprehension of sword intent has naturally become even more terrifying.

Like Xia Mang and Duan Yunfeng, although they are also the most outstanding talents in the Heavenly Flame Dynasty, in terms of comprehension and talent, they are far inferior to Su Xin who awakens the Supreme Bloodline.

"I have a feeling that when I comprehend the essence of the nine sword intents and my understanding of sword intent truly reaches the second level, my cultivation should also break through at the same time."

Su Xin's heart was secretly filled with anticipation.

Time flies, two months have passed in the blink of an eye.

……

Tianyan Palace, Daoist temple.

Boom!

A terrifying gunshot, imbued with a horrifying aura, pierced the air and erupted suddenly.

He seemed to rule the world, with boundless arrogance.

With a deafening clang, the disciple of Tianyan Palace who had clashed with that domineering gun shadow trembled, and then was blasted out in a sorry state.

"Defeated!"

Another one!!

This is already the fifth elderly person he has defeated this month, isn't it This Xia Mang is truly amazing.

Many disciples of the Tianyan Palace watching from the sidelines, both new and old, were secretly amazed.

Xia Mang, this generation's hunting prodigy ranks second only to Su Xin. He is also considered a once-in-a-generation genius of the Tianyan Imperial Dynasty. Although his brilliance was overshadowed by Su Xin for a time, his talent is undeniably terrifying.

When he first entered the Tiangyan Palace, perhaps because of his limited cultivation, his strength had already reached its peak state. His progress was very slow. However, as he broke through to the Void-Breaking Realm... he began to make rapid progress.

Later, he completed a training mission and obtained a large amount of fire points. Relying on these fire points and his talent, he raised his strength to an astonishing level in a short period of time.

To this day, his comprehension of the essence of scenery has already reached five levels, and he is very close to reaching the sixth.

Even if he only comprehended five kinds, his domineering gunplay, once unleashed and at full power, was even stronger than that of ordinary disciples who had grasped the essence of six realms.

This month, Xia Mang frequently challenged the elders at the temple to duels. He participated in six duels and astonishingly won five of them.

As a result, many elderly people in the Heavenly Flame Palace dared not challenge him to a duel.

This Xia Mang, his natural talent is too high. He entered the Tianyan Palace to cultivate for less than a year His understanding of artistic conception has already surpassed many old masters.

"Wasn't Su Xin the most dazzling one in the previous hunt"

"Su Xin At the beginning, Su Xin's progress was indeed very fast. He defeated Jiang Yan in just over two months. But later, there was no news of him, and he never showed his strength again, let alone participated in a gambling battle. Moreover, after so long, all the geniuses who entered Tianyan Palace with him have already broken through to the Void Refining Realm. It seems that he is still at the Sea Transforming Realm."

"Is it still the Sea Transformation Realm How come you haven't broken through yet"

"Who knows, maybe he's hit a bottleneck. Some people may seem to progress incredibly fast in a certain period of time, but once they hit a bottleneck, it could be years or even decades before they break through."

Inside the Tianyan Palace, many disciples saw Xia Mang's displayed talent and strength, and they began to discuss it.

Meanwhile, in a corner not far away, Su Xin and Duan Yunfeng were sitting there casually.

"Brother, did you hear Someone's comparing you to Xia Mang again. They say you've been stuck at the Hua Hai realm, and your comprehension hasn't improved much. Now they say Xia Mang is the strongest among our new recruits Hmph," Duan Yunfeng said indignantly.

Su Xin then gave a faint smile.

The news that he is still at the Haihai Realm has long been circulating in the Tianyan Palace.

While comprehending the realm of intent in Huazhai () is difficult, it is even more challenging than comprehending the realm of intent in Po Xu ().

It's like during the Zhenwu Realm, being able to comprehend a hint of artistic conception is considered astonishing. However, in the Huanghai Realm, even though comprehending a hint of artistic conception isn't that remarkable, almost every genius who is eligible to participate in the hunt has comprehended at least a sliver of it. This is because comprehending artistic conception in the Huanghai Realm is easier than in the Zhenwu Realm.

Similarly, understanding the Tao in the Void-Shattering Realm is naturally easier than in the Sea Transformation Realm.

And both Su Xin and Xia Mang were considered top geniuses who only appeared once in decades. Xia Mang had already broken through to the Void Breaking Realm, while Su Xin was still at the Sea Transformation Realm stage. Naturally, most people believed that Xia Mang's progress would be faster than Su Xin's.

Moreover, with Xia Mang's several displays of strength over the past month, those disciples from the Tianyan Palace believed that Xia Mang was the first genius of this hunting competition, which was also normal.

"Brother, you're really able to hold back. If I were you, after hearing these words, I would have long ago challenged Xia Mang to a fight. Even if I was worse off, I would find several elders and challenge them to a few gambling battles to prove my strength," Duan Yunfeng said.

He was closest to Su Xin, although he wasn't sure of Su Xin's exact capabilities. However, he knew that in terms of feeling and comprehension, Su Xin would definitely not be inferior to Xia Mang.

"No need," Su Xin chuckled lightly.

He only cares about improving his own strength and doesn't care at all what others think of him.

As for gambling, to be honest, he didn't want to 'take advantage' of those elderly people.

It really is bullying...

Even with nearly a hundred disciples, including this batch, the Heavenly Flame Palace rarely sees any disciples who have cultivated there for over a decade. Almost all of them are out adventuring or training, only returning occasionally to exchange for what they need at the Treasure Pavilion.

...those who stay in Tianyan Palace year-round and utilize its fortuitous locations to enhance their strength are mostly the talents from the recent two hunting sessions, as well as those recruited ahead of schedule. Their cultivation time in Tianyan Palace isn't particularly long either.

In terms of strength, most Tianyan Palace disciples have comprehended between four and five realms of essence. The most capable are those who have comprehended up to six or even seven realms.

Before taking on the training mission, Ke Su Xin had already comprehended the essence of seven sword intents. Over these two months, relying on his understanding of the Sword Rain Scroll, he also comprehended the eighth sword intent essence. Even for the ninth sword intent, he was only lacking that final bit.

That is to say, at present, in terms of spiritual insight and comprehension, he is only one step away from reaching the second level.

This kind of feeling, sparring with these elders, isn't it taking advantage

……

"Su Xin!"

A figure walked up to Su Xin.

"Xia Mang Su Xin smiled faintly as he looked at the person coming over."

"Su Xin, do you remember the promise we made before" Xia Mang looked at Su Xin.

"Of course, Su Xin nodded."

Before the hunt ended, Xiaman had approached him and said that once both of them had broken through to the Xu Void Realm, they would have a fair fight.

Now, Xia Mang has already broken through to the next level, while I am still stuck at the Huanghai realm.

"Break through sooner, I'll be waiting for the day we clash. Xia Mang gave Su Xin a solemn look, then turned and left."

"This Xia Mang, he's getting too arrogant. He really thinks he's your opponent now" Duan Yunfeng looked at Xia Mang's departing figure, dissatisfiedly said.

Su Xin just smiled nonchalantly, "You continue to stay here, I'll go back to cultivate first.

Soon, Su Xin returned to his residence.

That sword rain scroll, still hangs on the wall.

Su Xinwei closed her eyes, her consciousness merging into the painting. She quietly felt the transformation of sword intent within the ninth drop of rain.

For the past two months, he has spent half his time each day studying the Sword Rain Scroll and the other half training in the Trial Tower.

After two months of contemplation, he was only one final thread away from grasping the essence of this ninth sword intent.

And with today's comprehension, the last trace of sword intent essence also came naturally.

Su Xin opened his eyes and looked again at the nine raindrops in the painting. He felt that the nine raindrops were incredibly clear, with not a shred of doubt remaining.

"The nine sword intents, their essence finally understood completely. And my own sword intent…"

Su Xin's mind moved, and in an instant, a sword intent condensed.

This sword intent is far more dazzling than before.

"Much stronger. Su Xin's eyes shone with a strange light."

Comprehending the essence of nine sword intents differs from comprehending eight, seemingly only a distinction in one sword intent's core.

However, only after one has truly comprehended the essence of the nine sword intents can their sword intent comprehension reach a second level. Furthermore, these nine sword intents' essences can perfectly blend with each other, unleashing a power far exceeding that of the eight sword intents.

That's completely different.

After reaching this level, Su Xin's swordsmanship will also undergo a transformation, completely different from before.

"I hear that most Nirvana Realm experts, their understanding of the realm, is only at the second level. Su Xin chuckled lightly. Now, he, in terms of comprehension of the realm, has indeed reached the level of an average Nirvana Realm expert."

Just then, Su Xin's heart moved again. The spiritual power that had been accumulating to its limit in his body also began to surge wildly at this moment.

As expected, he was about to breakthrough. Su Xin's heart filled with joy.

He had long sensed that when he comprehended the essence of the Nine Sword Intentions, his cultivation might breakthrough.

Now it's really going to break through.

……

Inside the room, Su Xin continued to sit cross-legged on the bed, his cultivation method already running. In just a short moment, his cultivation had broken through that barrier and reached a new level.

"Breaking through the barriers, here we are!"

Su Xin held his hands tightly.

The Heavenly Flame Dynasty, with vast territory and numerous powerful individuals.

The Huanghai Realm is nothing in the Tianyan Imperial Dynasty. Only those who reach the Po Xu Realm, able to walk through the air, can be considered true powerhouses!

Su Xin had long yearned for the Void Breaking Realm, and today, he finally achieved it.

However, what Su Xin did not expect was that just as his cultivation had just broken through to the Void Breaking Realm, and he hadn't even had time to experience the surging power...

Boom boom boom~~~

A vast surge of information appeared in his mind without any warning.

Just like when he awakened his bloodline before, the bloodline inheritance martial arts and the Divine Extinction Forbidden Technique appeared out of thin air in his mind.

This message, too, appeared out of thin air in the same way memories are passed down.

Su Xin's eyes widened in surprise.

"This, this is… a divine talent!!"

……rienced, they could only watch with envy."Su Xin, did you hear that There are many people around who are discussing you," the Nine Star Dao Master chuckled.Su Xin smiled in surprise."Let's not talk ab...
