Chapter 199 Something Big is Going to Happen >

half a tael of silver per month.'" 。Our military's silver pay was given to veteran soldiers and horses, and the rest was mostly given to Ming troops who surrendered. 。The remaining soldiers could only...Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! ~~

Blades flashed wildly, one after another.

"Hurry! Hurry!"

"My sword must become faster!"

Su Xin spared no effort in displaying his swordsmanship.

At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind: to make his swordsmanship as fast as possible!

Once again, wielding the sword with all his might.

Su Xin was in an incredibly excited state.

And in this state, the countless sword techniques and a wealth of swordsmanship theoretical knowledge he had researched and understood within the small library before, as well as the scenes of him watching one after another swordsman masters displaying their ultimate skills, proved to be invaluable.

He didn't need to think about it deliberately, his sword speed naturally kept increasing.

His sword, getting faster and faster! More and more terrifying!

The imposing man who had been on the defensive felt the pressure emanating from Su Xinjian increasing with every passing moment.

Finally……

Wow!

The same sword light flashed out, Su Xin felt that his sword strike was much easier to execute this time, and even the air resistance around him seemed to have decreased a lot.

This sword strike, with its explosive speed, was faster than any sword technique I had ever used before!

This sword light is incomparably dazzling.

Like a glimmer of dawn suddenly appearing in the endless darkness, it brings renewed hope.

The burly man who had been continuously wielding the integrated sword art widened his eyes. His body was already torn apart by sword light, and his figure gradually dissipated in this sword dao reincarnation space.

"Done!"

Su Xin looked at the burly man's figure dissipate, a smile also appeared on his face.

He has been comprehending swordsmanship within the small library or training in the cycle of kendo space for years, accumulating so much that he had already created the pinnacle technique of the first level, Jiuxiao, before this.

And as he mastered the complete Sword Intent domain, he has also been perfecting his unique skills during this time.

To this day, upon encountering that sword wielder who was exceptionally skilled in defensive techniques, he felt an intense desire to make his own blade stronger, in order to break through the opponent's defenses.

In this state, a completely new and unique art was finally created.

Given his current mastery of kendo, this ultimate technique he created is a peak level skill at the first rank.

"As the sword was drawn, its light carried a glimmer of hope, like a ray of dawn piercing the darkness!"

This sword shall be named "Dawn."

Su Xin chuckled.

Dawn... is an instantaneous explosion of terrifying speed, a pinnacle skill at the first level. It is completely different from the previous Nine Heavens.

"With the two great skills, 'Jiuxiao' and 'Shuguang', in hand, if I encounter a strong enemy in the future, I will first use Jiuxiao to see if I can directly crush them. If I can't crush them, then I will rely on my speed to win," Su Xin murmured.

Of course, creating 'Dawn' only slightly improved his ultimate technique. It was still incomplete and had a lot of room for improvement.

After all, these two ultimate techniques are quite single-minded. One focuses on offense, and the other on speed.

But if it were a truly complete and flawless set of teachings, it would inevitably involve every aspect.

Like his previously mastered 'Flying Blood' sword technique, although it was only a sword technique secret and hadn't reached the level of a consummate art, its nature wasn't that different.

And in the Flying Blood Sword Technique, each sword technique has its own characteristics, involving various domains. That's what constitutes a more complete sword technique.

"I've already mastered the ultimate techniques for main attacks and speed. Then, I can try other aspects of ultimate techniques," Su Xin thought to himself.

Just like that burly man who was just defeated, he integrated the secret technique into his defensive swordsmanship, making his defensive swordsmanship seamless and impregnable. Perhaps he could also try doing the same.

Inside the small library, Su Xin held a communication talisman in his hand, exchanging messages with A Qi.

In his spare time from ascetic practices, he would always take some time to inquire about Aqi's situation in the First Realm and offer some advice. This had become a habit.

"Aqi, you're currently in the First Realm. No one knows your true strength yet. There's no need to rush and expose it. Hide for as long as you can. Remember, the deeper you conceal your strength, the less others will underestimate you. When the time is right, unleash your power for maximum effect," Su Xin said.

"Well, I know," Ah Qi responded.

Unfortunately, while Ah Qi is strong, she lacks experience due to her sheltered upbringing. Su Xin sent her with the Nine Star Dao Master to the First Realm to gain more experience.

And be sure to remind yourself as well.

After chatting for a few more moments, they ended their conversation. Su Xin also continued to ponder the swordsmanship secrets.

……

In the First Domain, where skies were overcast with dark clouds, Aqi and Lord Jiuxin walked slowly forward.

"Huh Someone's here.

Jiu Chen Daozhu suddenly raised his head and looked in one direction.

In a moment, three figures appeared before them.

"Three peak Five-Step Venerables from the Heavenly Palace Camp" Jiuzhen Daozhu's eyes narrowed slightly.

He is the master of the Nine Stars on Mount Jiusheng.

Jiuchendaozhu had long since become famous and was extremely powerful. Many people in the Heavenly God Palace camp had heard of him. The three of them immediately recognized Jiuchendaozhu.

“This Nine Stars Dao Master is rumored to have been infinitely close to the Sixth Step Venerable many years ago. Now that he has come to the First Realm to roam, he has most likely created a peerless school and reached the ranks of the Sixth Step Venerable. When facing him, we must be careful.”

These three were very cautious, knowing that the Lord of Jiuxin was not easy to provoke, but they were not afraid.

After all, the cultivation levels of a Five-Step Peak Venerable and a Six-Step Venerable are essentially the same. The difference lies in the fact that a Six-Step Venerable has created unique techniques, their comprehension of intent or other methods might be slightly stronger, but the gap isn't too significant.

The three of them teamed up, they still dared to fight the master of Jiuxin.

And as for Ah Qi standing nearby, they also noticed it, but because of Ah Qi's presence, they didn't choose to leave right away.

"Hmph, this Jiu Chen Dao Lord, a newly created sixth-step Venerable with the Six Steps Divine Art, actually dares to bring a fourth-step peak yellow-haired brat to the First Realm to frolic. He's truly courting death!"

"Let's do it together, kill this woman first to teach him a lesson."

These three people immediately jumped into action.

They didn't intend to kill Jiuxin Daozhu at all, because they knew they couldn't. They only wanted to kill A Qi who was by Jiuxin Daozhu's side, to give Jiuxin Daozhu a lesson and conveniently gain some military merit.

Two of the three charged towards Jiuxin Daozhu, aiming to obstruct him. The remaining man, a cold and imposing figure in purple robes, held a long spear and went straight for A-Qi.

"Haha~"

Nine Stars Daoist Lord laughed, naturally without the slightest fear, and he was not worried about Aqi's situation at all.

And with his strength erupting... he was already the most extreme existence among the peak Venerables of Five Steps, his comprehension of kinesis had long reached a perfect level. Coupled with the Sword Formation in hand, even without taking that step forward, he could confidently suppress these two people. And once he unleashed his ultimate technique... these two would be utterly powerless to resist.

In just a short while, the two of them began to retreat.

At the same time, they also noticed the battlefield beside them. They originally thought that the cold and stern man in purple robes would be able to quickly kill the young woman in plain clothes who was at the peak of the fourth step realm, but the reality turned out to be completely different.

The girl in the素 robe only made a casual move, wielding a black short knife that was obviously only at the level of a secret treasure. She didn't seem to use any fancy sword techniques, just a casual and instinctive attack. Yet, the cold and stern man in purple robes was pushed back step by step.

"Get out of here quickly!"

The three of them didn't dare to linger any longer, they even frantically wanted to escape.

Ke Jiuchen, the Dao Master, clearly didn't intend to let them go. His sword formation swept out, managing to hold back one of them and ultimately killing him.

"Another one slain, as always. The war merit will be split between us evenly," the Nine Suns Dao Lord chuckled.

"Um, A-Qi nodded and didn't refuse."

But just then...

A majestic and vast aura suddenly erupted from the most central area of the First Realm.

The moment this aura appeared, it instantly drew the attention of all powerful figures within the First Realm's two major camps.

"This breath... could it be, the Guiyuan Tower has manifested" The Nine Stars Dao Master also raised his head at this moment, looking towards the direction where the breath came from.

"The Returning Origin Pagoda" A-Qi looked over curiously.

That was left behind by a very powerful force in the Qingxuan Domain long ago. Inside, there are extraordinary opportunities, it can be said to be the largest treasure in the first realm.

Jiu Chen Daozhu's eyes held a hint of surprise: "A Qi, our luck is indeed quite good. We've just arrived in the First Realm to explore, and we happened to encounter the emergence of the Gui Yuan Tower. Now, almost all the powerful cultivators within the First Realm must have been alerted. Let's go, we should head there as soon as possible."

"Good." Ah Qi nodded.

The two immediately rushed toward the place where Guiyuan Pagoda was born.

As the Nine Stars Dao Lord had anticipated, the entire First Realm was now in an uproar. Many people immediately sensed that this aura must have been released by the emergence of the Returning Yuan Tower, and thus countless powerful individuals flocked to the place where the Returning Yuan Tower emerged.

In no time, the place of its birth gathered a large number of powerful figures who were venturing in the First Realm. It seemed inevitable that a battle for opportunity was about to begin.

What no one expected was that before the Guiyuan Tower had even truly appeared, and before the competition for its origins had even begun, something utterly unbelievable happened.

……

In the small library, Su Xin was carefully studying the scene of a strongman from the Ling Fu displaying his unique skills, absorbing some of the techniques within.

“This sword strike, when unleashed, is silent and unassuming, with no warning or display of power. Yet, it gathers all its boundless might into a single point, exploding in an instant, pushing force and speed to their absolute limits. Truly remarkable,” Su Xin muttered in awe.

But at this time...

"Su Xin, something big has happened!!"

The master of Jiucheng suddenly sent a message.

"What's wrong" Su Xin's heart tightened involuntarily.

"It's A Qi, just now, she killed the Blood Blade King right in front of countless powerful figures!"

And, she only used one knife!!

What

Su Xin's expression instantly became shocked.

……that disciples of Tianyan Palace who reach a certain level of skill will go there to test themselves.That place is outside the Tianyan Imperial Dynasty's borders, and there are many Void-Breaking Real...
