se years. Not even the first two trials have been passed by anyone. Even Transcendent powerhouses have gone to try, how can Su Xin's talent be compared to Transcendent powerhouses""Just watch, after h...A great battle took place, resulting in the deaths of over a hundred clan members.

The entire Su family was immersed in grief.

It passed seven days quickly.

……

"The Pang family, exterminated!"

"It is said that the Grand Elder himself took action, wiping out all of the remaining high-ranking members of the Pang family. Even among the younger generations, only a handful managed to escape."

"Good riddance, that bastard Pang family, finally dealt with. "

Upon receiving this news, all members of the Su family felt a great sense of relief.

Seven days ago, the Su family suffered heavy casualties in the battle, but the Pang family lost even more.

Especially the Void Realm powerhouses at the top of the Pang family, they were completely wiped out that night.

With the departure of the Void Realm powerhouse, the Pang family was no longer qualified to fight against the Su family. Yesterday, Elder Su Boyong personally took action and killed all the remaining high-ranking members of the Pang family, bringing about the complete annihilation of the Pang family. Remember the URL

"This is the times, if that night my Su family couldn't stop the Pang family's attack, then it would be my Su family who was destroyed.

"

Su Xin walked within the Su family, hearing many Su family members rejoicing over this matter. He couldn't help but let out a sigh in his heart.

The Pang family has been wiped out, and that Situ family… in the short term, they should not dare to attack my Su family again. I should also prepare for the upcoming imperial hunt in the capital city.

That night, the Si family mobilized a considerable amount of power, even dispatching a squad of Yinglong Guards. In the end, everyone was thoroughly left at the Su residence.

Once this happens, the Si family will definitely be wary of the Su family again and dare not make a move lightly.

Furthermore, the loss of an entire應龍衛 squad, and the price the Situ family had to bear afterward, would probably keep them scrambling for a while.

Su Xin could also temporarily put his mind at ease and prepare for the upcoming imperial hunt.

On this day, Su Xin left the Su family alone to go out and hone his skills.

This is still the first time he has truly ventured out on his own since he was born.

In less than two months, he wanted to venture out on his own and make a name for himself within the Yongning County.

……

Northern Cold City.

Among the numerous towns in Yongning County, this town is one of the most well-known.

And this Beihantan City became famous because there was an old city lord within it.

This old city lord is over a hundred years old and has been in his position for sixty years. He is highly respected, and most importantly, this old city lord is incredibly powerful. Throughout the entire Yongning County, those below the Void Refinement Realm who can rival him are few and far between!

In the courtyard of the city lord's mansion, a burly old man with a tiger back and bear waist stood in the open space. He held two swords in his hands, focusing all his attention on practicing a sword technique.

His swordsmanship is incredibly powerful and expansive, with an imposing aura.

It took a long time for him to finish practicing that sword technique.

On the stone bench at the edge of the empty lot, sat a graceful woman. She was the granddaughter of the old city lord. Seeing the old lord approach, she smiled and said, "Grandfather, you're over a hundred years old, yet you're still as strong as ever."

"Haha!" the old mayor boomed with laughter. "What's a hundred years or so With my vitality and spirit, I could live another thirty-four years without a problem."

He's not exaggerating.

In this world, people cultivate martial arts to strengthen their bodies. The higher the cultivation level, the longer they live.

Like ordinary cultivators in the Profound Sea Realm, as long as nothing unexpected happens along the way, living over a hundred years is very normal. This old city lord's cultivation has already reached the peak of the Profound Sea Realm, and his body is so strong. It is indeed possible to live to be one hundred thirty or forty years old.

If one has attained the state of "Po Xu Jing" (breaking through emptiness), living to be 167 years old would be very normal.

As for those who have reached the realm of Nirvana and beyond, many can live for over two hundred years.

It's a pity, old man, I'm afraid that in my lifetime, I won't be able to make any further progress. The old city lord sighed softly.

His cultivation had already reached the peak of the Sea Transformation Realm. One step further, he would be at the Void Breaking Realm.

This step is so close, yet feels like an insurmountable chasm. He has been stuck at this point for most of his life, unable to cross it.

"Master, someone outside requests an audience," said a servant as an old man approached.

"Who is it" the old city lord asked.

"He said his name was Jianyi, a very young boy," the old servant said.

"Kenichi" the old city lord questioned, but still smiled. "Let him in."

The old servant nodded and left.

"Very young Then it's most likely you're here to be my disciple.

"

That dignified lady frowned, "Grandfather, in your sixty years as the mayor, how many young descendants have come to you seeking apprenticeship The number of disciples you've taken in must add up to dozens. Of these people, only two or three have truly achieved success, most are unknown, and some even went astray, sullying your reputation."

After this, if you take on any more disciples, you better keep your eyes open, the elegant woman said.

"Knowing about this, old man's business, still need you this little girl to take care of" The old city lord smiled, but in his heart he didn't take it seriously.

He was a generous person and accepted disciples… as long as the other party wasn't too wicked in their heart, and either had a good temperament or possessed some talent, he was willing to take them on.

And whenever he took on disciples, he would wholeheartedly teach them, without being stingy.

However, the world is too complex. Some disciples initially had good character, but during their training periods, they gradually changed.

Over the past few decades, he has taken in quite a few disciples, and indeed, a few of them have been causing trouble outside.

This doesn't affect his mood of continuing to accept disciples.

Soon, led by the old servant, a black-robed youth carrying a sword walked in.

"So young You're barely twenty, right" The elegant woman's face contorted when she saw the youth in black robes.

"Junior Jian Yi, greets the former Lord of the City Su Xin with a slight bow."

He walked along the way and also heard many stories about the old city lord. Su Xin respected this powerful, respected old city lord who was willing to teach his disciples very much.

"Little lad, what brings you to see this old man" the City Lord asked.

"I hear that the former city lord's swordsmanship is superb. Su Xin said, "This junior would like to learn from him."

"If you want to become my disciple, just do it. Don't put on airs and ask for a demonstration." The elegant woman said with displeasure.

Su Xin couldn't help but be stunned.

Apprenticeship

What is he saying

As for that old city lord, he laughed heartily and said, "Alright, just as I've finished practicing my sword. Young fella, go ahead and make your move."

“That senior should be careful, Su Xin unsheathed his sword.”

"Come on

">

The old city lord held a sword in one hand, smiling. The other was on his back.

He had long since seen that Su Xin before him was only at the cultivation level of a small completion of the sea, just like his granddaughter, he also thought that Su Xin was here to pay homage.

So at first, he didn't take Su Xin's strength seriously, treating him just like any other junior disciple.

...As soon as Su Xin drew his sword...

The sword light was hazy, but its speed was extreme.

Most importantly, the moment the sword light flashed out, it also carried a strange and inexplicable artistic conception.

"Is this… sword intent" exclaimed the old city lord in shock.

The feeling of the sword, when it reaches a certain level, can only perfectly blend with weaponry to form sword intent.

This young fellow in front of me has only just reached the realm of a small sea. With his first move, he startled me.

The old city lord also immediately drew his sword.

Ding ding ding~~

An incredibly violent crashing sound arose, and the old city lord, who had initially been casual, became extremely serious, even gradually bringing out his full power.

After a round of fighting, he was forced to retreat step by step.

"I, an old man, am completely suppressed"

The old city lord looked utterly incredulous.

"Well done, come again!"

The two engaged in another fierce battle. The old City Master had pushed his strength to its peak, while Su Xin had activated 50% of his bloodline power and started wielding the Thunderfire Rolling Sword Technique.

After half a cup of tea, the two figures stopped.

"Senior, please accept my respects," Su Xin said humbly.

"Am I defeated, old man"

The old city lord was still shocked, but he quickly recovered. "Haha! Good boy, this old man's cultivation reached the peak of the Sea Transformation Realm a long time ago. Decades ago, he already passed the first level of the Dragon Seeking Tower. As far as I know, in the entire Yongning County Sea Transformation Realm, there are at most two or three people who could surpass this old man, but today you actually defeated me..."

The young generation is pushing the old one aside, making way for new talent.

The old lord sighed in admiration.

And beside him, his granddaughter, that stately young lady, had been stunned long ago.

At first, she truly thought that this incredibly young "Kenichi" before her was here to become her disciple.

Now...

“Young swordsman, after sparring with you just now, I’ve been deeply moved by your swordsmanship. If you have no pressing matters, would you please stay at my city lord's mansion for a night I'd love to continue practicing with you," the City Lord said.

Of course, you can smile with confidence.

This old city lord is incredibly powerful!

Just now, under the premise of urging out five percent of my bloodline power, I pushed swordsmanship to its peak and barely managed to defeat it.

This battle touched the old city master, but his gains were also considerable.

He would naturally be happy to fight this old city lord again and exchange their insights.

That day, Su Xin fought the old city lord several more times.

In the evening, the two of them talked late into the night by candlelight.

Not until the next morning did Su Xin bid farewell and depart.

"At such a young age, to already possess such extraordinary ability, and to single-handedly wield a sword, traversing the world and challenging powerful adversaries... Truly admirable. The old city lord gazed at Su Xin's departing figure, filled with admiration."

"Grandpa, although Sword One is powerful, compared to you, Grandpa, there's not much difference," said the elegant woman beside him.

"The old city lord shook his head and sighed: "Compared to him, I am like the setting sun, while he is the rising sun, with boundless vigor!"

"Youth is so wonderful!"

……

Beneath a mountain, there is a village where Su Xinxing just arrived.

"Haha, kill them all!"

"No!"

"Spare our lives! We are willing to offer money!"

"Mother!"

A band of bandits, riding through the village on horseback, were wreaking havoc and looting with wild abandon.

In this world, martial arts flourish but are exceedingly chaotic, with rampant bandits.

Those cities were still alright, with the imperial army present. But for those villages living outside the city walls, relying on the mountains for food, they were constantly under threat from bandits.

Even the imperial court couldn't do anything about it.

Seeing this, Su Xin's eyes turned red and he immediately acted.

They were just ordinary bandits, their leader nothing more than an average Joe named Hai Xiaocheng. In front of Su Xin, they had no chance to resist at all. In a matter of moments, the dozens of bandits who had raided this village were all killed by Su Xin.

Therefore, this village did not suffer the fate of being slaughtered.

……

In a beautiful and magnificent estate.

"Master Tang, my name is Jian Yi. I heard that the steward in your mansion, back in the day, single-handedly killed several peak-stage cultivators of the Huai Hai realm. His strength was extraordinary, so I came to seek guidance."

"Another martial arts enthusiast, Mr. Tang, waved his hand and said, "Old Qi, since this young brother is sincerely here to learn from you, just feel free to give him some pointers."

It was the old butler who acted quickly.

……

"Mr. Song, my name is Jianyi. I would like to ask for your guidance."

"Such a petty and insignificant fellow, dare to challenge me" Mr. Song directly flicked his sleeves and left, too lazy to even acknowledge him.

"Well then, so be it. Su Xin was not angry; he turned and left."

……

Su Xin, alone with his sword, walked between the towns and forests of Yongning County.

Wherever I passed, whenever I heard of someone powerful or skilled, I would seek them out for a challenge.

... just like the beggar boy Duan Yunfeng he met in Dongyang City back then... he ventures out into the world, challenging powerful figures everywhere.

But Su Xin did not act as recklessly as Duan Yunfeng. Su Xin's battles with those strong individuals were purely for the sake of sparring and honing his skills; he never truly intended to kill them.

And if the other party declines, Su Xin wouldn't pester them, nor would he be domineering and force a battle.

> If he encounters injustice during his travels, he will also act without hesitation.

Time drifted away on this journey of exploration.

Soon, the first selection day for the imperial hunt arrived.

……arrowed.After killing three of their own comrades, this 'bloodlight' moved without the slightest hesitation. It flickered and charged towards Su Xin again.Whoosh!The same shimmering light.That razor-s...
