Chapter 132: Great Shock, Sword Heart Embryo
understanding of the artistic conception has also improved considerably. Now, if I were to challenge the second floor of the Dragon Seeking Tower again, although I would probably still lose, at least...As the grand "Mountain Master," they are super-powered beings of a dominant level throughout the entire Eastern Wasteland. Furthermore, both of them are incredibly ancient, having lived for over a thousand years. Naturally, their experience is extremely vast.
In their daily lives, it was rare for these two mountain lords to be surprised by anything.
But now, the Third Mountain Master and Fifth Mountain Master are truly shocked to the core.
Kenshin... a kind of divine heart! (There are also sword hearts, gun hearts, etc., depending on their respective fields of expertise. They are all collectively known as divine hearts.)
And the divine heart, it is the power that can only be gathered when 'the Mountain Lord' exists, a special and transcendent kind of force.
For example, the Third Mountain Master and the Fifth Mountain Master both possess complete divine hearts, but their ranks and levels differ.
At the same time, forging a complete and unified spiritual heart is also the biggest hurdle that transcends existence must overcome to achieve the level of "Mountain Master".
Therefore, those transcendental existences, after transcendence, will try every means to condense the nascent divine heart form and then slowly nurture it. This is considered quite normal.
There are many talented people in the world, and there are countless opportunities.
Some incredibly prodigious geniuses, by chance, can condense the nascent form of a divine heart during the Nirvana Realm, and then nurture it.
As in the history of Jiusheng Mountain, there were three true dragon-level geniuses who appeared before. One of them conceived a nascent divine heart during the Five Steps Nirvana Realm. At that time, all the high-ranking officials of Jiusheng Mountain were shocked.
Unfortunately, this True Dragon-level genius, although he was able to transcend later on, didn't have time to vie for the position of "Mountain Master". He perished during a foray into a secret realm.
It can be said that a Five-Step Nirvana Realm cultivator who can condense the nascent form of a divine heart is already a once-in-a-millennium prodigy, something rarely seen throughout the entire Eastern Desolation.
And now…
"A broken void, to then coalesce into the rudimentary form of a sword heart (divine heart)"
The Third Mountain Master and the Fifth Mountain Master looked at each other.
Whoosh!
Another figure materialized beside the two mountain masters.
This is a beautiful woman in plain robes. She appears to be in her middle years, but in reality, she has lived for over two thousand years.
"Jade Tea, you've come too." The Third Mountain Master looked at this beautiful woman.
"Given such a big event, of course I had to come. The beautiful woman smiled and her eyes turned towards Su Xin in the midst of Hong Tianjie."
“What a remarkable young lad, breaking through to the Void Realm and already condensing a nascent Sword Heart. As long as he has time and doesn't meet an untimely end, he could very well vie for the position of 'Mountain Master' in the future. Moreover…breaking through to the Void Realm and starting to nurture a nascent Sword Heart is a significant feat. By the time he reaches that point, condensing a complete Sword Heart will undoubtedly be of an extremely high rank, probably at least Grade 3 or higher!”
The Third Mountain Master and the Fifth Mountain Master both nodded in agreement.
A god's heart, the earlier it is nurtured, the better.
The earlier the gestation, the higher the rank when it finally breaks through and truly condenses a complete divine heart.
The higher the divine heart rank, the stronger the strength and the greater the potential.
From the Void Realm, the nascent form of the sword heart began to take shape. Afterward, when it fully coalesced, the grade of the complete sword heart would certainly be extremely high.
The beautiful woman with red clouds in her eyes looked down upon the Holy Lord of Red Clouds.
Having seen the Fourth Mountain Master, Crimson Cloud Saint Lord, pay his respects again, I was both respectful and uneasy in my heart.
"Who is that little fellow from the Broken Void Realm within the Heavenly Domain What disciple is he" asked the beautiful woman, who was the Fourth Mountain Master.
These mountain lords are too detached and rarely concern themselves with the affairs within Jiusheng Mountain. A mere Void Realm cultivator, despite his extraordinary talent, wouldn't be worthy of their attention. Therefore, these mountain lords were completely unaware of Su Xin's existence before this.
Hong Yun Sheng Jun also honestly told everything he knew.
"Su Xin A True Dragon-level genius"
"A disciple of Bei Ming"
These mountain masters were all inwardly stirred.
And at this moment, the Sixth Mountain Master, with a face as sharp as a blade and a cold, aloof demeanor, also appeared before the tower.
Bei Ming, you're finally here.
All three mountain masters looked towards the sixth mountain master.
The Sixth Mountain Master, known as the Beiming Sword Master, is a top-tier powerhouse in Dong Huang's lands. Many powerful individuals throughout Dong Huang revere him as the Beiming Sword Master!
Even the Sixth Mountain Master had come, and the Red Cloud Saint Lord trembled with fear in his heart.
The six current mountain masters of Jiusheng Mountain, the first master is the oldest and most detached. He often retreats for cultivation and only emerges if Jiusheng Mountain faces a major crisis.
The second mountain master has always been wandering outside, not within Jiusheng Mountain.
Besides the first and second mountain masters, the remaining four mountain masters have all gathered here at this moment.
Being watched by the three mountain masters, the sixth mountain master merely raised his head and glanced at the three of them. In an instant, the hearts of the three mountain masters skipped a beat.
“This Beiming is getting scarier and scarier!”
These three mountain masters were all a little shocked in their hearts.
Despite being the youngest and having risen to power the shortest amount of time among the six mountain lords, his strength is absolutely not inferior. In fact, besides the transcendent First Mountain Lord, any other mountain lord would have no guarantee of victory if they faced him.
"Beiming, your disciple is truly capable. A mere Void Realm novice has already formed the nascent form of a sword heart. He must have learned quite a bit from you, his master." The Fourth Mountain Master looked over.
The mountain masters, each with profound knowledge.
They knew, Su Xin, a cultivator who had only been practicing for over twenty years and came from an ordinary imperial dynasty's humble family, even with his monstrous talent and being a true dragon-grade genius, it was impossible for him to condense the embryonic form of a sword heart so early on his own.
That must have been guidance worthy of heaven itself.
And this guidance from heaven, could only originate from one person, that is Su Xin's master, the Sixth Mountain Master...Beiming!
"It's just a matter of accumulation and fruition, after all. The Sixth Mountain Lord said casually, his expression still indifferent."
He was speaking the truth. Su Xin's ability to form the embryonic form of a sword heart so early was largely due to his previous accumulations, which were too numerous to count.
There are three levels of tests in the library.
At the first level, he mastered eighty-six thousand six hundred common sword techniques to perfection. This allowed Su Xin's swordsmanship foundation to reach a level that countless people couldn't even imagine.
At the second level, three hundred and thirty exquisite and profound sword techniques allowed Su Xin to realize that all methods are interconnected. His understanding of swordsmanship also reached its peak.
And the third layer, the most important one, was the Ten Scrolls of Swordsmanship Theory. It seemed like just some swordsmanship theory knowledge, but in reality, it opened a brand new door for Su Xin, elevating him to an entirely new level. His understanding and thinking about swordsmanship reached an inconceivable height.
Three trials, endless swordsmanship, and the vast accumulation of theoretical knowledge have allowed him to reach a critical point in his swordsmanship.
And finally, the enlightenment in Hong Tianjie's world became the fuse!
This epiphany allowed Su Xin's years of relentless accumulation within the library to reach its peak, causing him to take a monumental leap forward and solidify the embryonic form of his sword heart.
Of course, it's easy to say so, but in reality, setting up those three trials alone is a feat of unparalleled skill.
Ordinary people couldn't even meet the requirements of that triple test. Even though the Sixth Mountain Master usually only opened one-tenth of the library, no one was able to complete it.
Until Su Xin appeared…
At first glance, the Sixth Mountain Master saw the hidden bloodline within Su Xin. This was something no one else could do. Even the other three Mountain Masters gathered before this tower now had also seen Su Xin within the Hongtian Realm.
However, these three mountain masters couldn't see the hidden bloodline power within Su Xin.
Only the Sixth Mountain Lord saw through it at once!
That's precisely why he opened the library to Su Xin, this unparalleled genius, allowing him to delve into its depths and accumulate knowledge step by step, until now, when his true potential has finally exploded!
"Northern Ming, to actually be able to teach a disciple who could condense the nascent form of a sword heart at the Profound Void realm, is admirable, truly admirable," said the third mountain master with a smile.
"Sixth Mountain Master, if you have time in the future, you can come and sit at my place more often, and also teach me some experience. Fifth Mountain Master also said."
"Beiming, your disciple is so extraordinary. It seems that after this Nine Saints Mountain, we might see both you and your disciple vying for the position of mountain master. The fourth mountain master also smiled."
The three mountain masters simply said a couple of words and left directly, without probing further or asking for the reason.
After the three mountain masters left...
"The Sixth Mountain Master of Red Clouds looked down at the Red Cloud Holy Lord before him."
The Sixth Mountain Lord, Hongyun Saint Venerable, is extremely respectful.
"Remember, what happened today should not be mentioned to anyone, otherwise..." The Sixth Mountain Master's eyes turned cold.
“The Crimson Cloud Saint nodded repeatedly.”
As the Sixth Mountain Master left, Hongyun Shengjun finally let out a breath.
"These four mountain masters, they all came for Su Xin" Hong Yun Saint Lord was shocked, and he had just heard the conversation between these mountain masters.
"Sword Heart Embryo This Su Xin, just a mere Void Realm cultivator, has actually condensed a Sword Heart Embryo"
The Red Cloud Saint Lord's heart also surged with an immense wave.
Note that he, being a mighty Transcendent, also spent a long time and paid a heavy price after transcending before he could barely condense the embryonic form of his divine heart. It's only recently that it began to take shape, while Su Xin condensed it during the Void-Breaking Realm
For a moment, Hongyun Saint Lord’s heart was filled with envy and astonishment.
……
Su Xin, who had attained enlightenment within the Heavenly Realm of Hongtian, was unaware of what transpired in the outside world.
He still referenced the movements of the old man in the painting, swinging his sword over and over again.
As time passed, his swordsmanship grew increasingly refined and powerful.
I don't know how long it had passed, hum~~~
The world within the painting dissipated, Su Xin's consciousness returned, and in front of him, the ancient, colossal scroll floating in the void had once again retracted.
"Is enlightenment over"
Su Xin opened his eyes and looked at the retracted painting, but his brows furrowed slightly.
He had been comprehending that sword within this realm of chaos, continuously refining it based on his understanding and perception of swordsmanship. However, it was evident that he hadn't truly completed it. This comprehension had already reached its end.
A peculiar wave arose.
All nine people in the Hongtian realm were sent out directly.
Before the ancient tower, the gate opened once more, and Su Xin and nine others walked out.
Hongyun Shengjun had been waiting silently outside the tower. He first saw the eight powerful cultivators at the Five Step Nirvana Realm. Although these Nirvana Realm cultivators all bowed respectfully to him, he only nodded slightly. But when he saw Su Xin walking out of the tower, this Hongyun Shengjun proactively greeted him.
"Su Xin, my friend, how has your understanding been within the Hongtian Realm" Hongyun Saint Lord inquired with a smile, appearing quite warm and friendly.
Such an appearance not only startled Su Xin, but also the eight masters of the Fifth Step Nirvana Realm beside him were all stunned.
"What's going on, why is the Red Cloud Saint so enthusiastic about this Su Xin"
"Could it be because Su Xin is the disciple of the sixth Mountain Master"
"How is that possible The disciple of the Sixth Mountain Master, his identity isn't ordinary. But he's still just a young boy after all. How could a powerful Transcendent expert care about such a small fry"
These five Nirvana Realms all had strange expressions on their faces. They didn't understand why the attitude of the Red Cloud Saint Monarch towards Su Xin suddenly changed like this.
……e of winning. And if they team up, I wouldn't even be able to escape."Tang Xuen panicked.He never expected that with his own abilities, in this imperial city's hunt, merely during the first stage of t...
