Chapter 81 Storm
ing into a coma.As consciousness ebbed, he faintly heard a voice at his ear."Humans, I haven't seen one in ages, and this one looks so delicate and tender. It must taste delicious."Eat him""No, no. Ma...Su Xin took out the fruit and placed it on the jade, but he didn't dare to look at it too closely.
In just a moment, the jade received its appraisal result.
"Blood Lotus Fruit!"
"Value: Five thousand fire points!"
"Hiss~"
Su Xin took a sharp breath.
He knew this fruit was extraordinary and probably very valuable, but he didn't expect that just this single fruit could be exchanged for a full five thousand fire points in this Treasure Pavilion.
You have to know, the superior divine weapon "Azure Crow" he just redeemed, if placed outside, would definitely cause many Void-Breaking Peak experts to go crazy vying for it. Yet, it only cost him three thousand fire points.
This fruit, it's even more precious than a high-level treasure
Although I know the name of this fruit and its value, I still don't know its use. Su Xin frowned.
He was also hesitating, wondering if he should use this Blood Lotus Fruit to exchange for fire points.
After all, five thousand fire points are enough for him to cultivate once inside the Starry Heaven Hall.
"This Blood Lotus Fruit is so valuable, its uses must be considerable. Anyway, I'm not in a hurry to use the fire points right now, so I'll hold off on exchanging it for now," Su Xin thought. He then put the Blood Lotus Fruit back into his Qiankun Ring and left the Treasure Pavilion, heading towards his residence.
What Ke Suixin didn't know was that right after he finished identifying the Blood Lotus Saint Fruit...
In the meticulously crafted attic of Tianyan Palace, Emperor Yuegong, the master of the palace, who was leisurely sipping tea, suddenly changed his expression and immediately rushed to the Treasure Pavilion.
The head of Qingyang Palace arrived here even earlier than the head of Yuezhang Palace.
"Di Yue, you know too" The Master of Qingyang Palace looked over.
"The Lord of Diyue Palace nodded."
"I just asked him, it seems that Su Xin got a Blood Lotus Holy Fruit from somewhere and just had it appraised at the Treasure Pavilion. However, he didn't end up exchanging the Blood Lotus Holy Fruit for Fire Points in exchange for the Qingyang Palace Master's Dao."
"Blood Lotus Fruit... Blood Lotus Sect!" The Palace Master of Emperor Moon Palace's face was icy, with a hint of cold light in her eyes.
"Di Yue, what do you intend to do about Su Xin" asked the Master of Qingyang Palace.
"No need to rush, let's wait until that person arrives before talking about the matters of Diyue Palace," said the master.
The two waited for a moment, and then a middle-aged man in simple Taoist robes hurried over.
"Met the Dragon Walk Palace Master"
The masters of Qingyang Palace and Emperor Yue Palace both slightly bowed, with a hint of respect.
Tianyan Palace has a total of three palace masters.
The three palace masters each have their own duties and seem to hold positions of equal standing.
In fact, among these three palace masters, the strongest and highest in status is this Longxing Palace Master. His power in Tianyan Palace is the greatest. Like Emperor Yue Palace Master and Qingyang Palace Master, although they are palace masters, in reality, they have to obediently follow the orders of this Longxing Palace Master on a daily basis.
I already know about this.
The Dragon Palace Master, bearing his hands behind him, stared coldly at the two people before him. “The Blood Lotus Fruit is too involved; if we are not careful, even my Heavenly Inferno Palace could be toppled by it!”
The masters of Di Yue Palace and Qing Yang Palace were both surprised, but not unexpected.
The Blood Lotus Fruit, the things it's connected to, are truly too vast.
Once slightly mishandled, not to mention the Heavenly Inferno Palace, even the Heavenly Inferno Dynasty would face a catastrophic disaster.
"Di Yue, you go find that little guy first and ask him clearly, how did he get the Blood Lotus Saint Fruit. If it was taken from someone else, then it's fine, but if he offered himself to obtain it..." The Dragon Walk Palace Master's eyes suddenly turned cold, "You should know what to do."
"The master of the Imperial Moon Palace nodded, and immediately swept aside.
"
……
Tianyan Palace, Su Xin's residence.
Su Xin had just returned from the Treasure Pavilion. He had been hunting monsters in the Blood Sacrifice Mountains, and now that he was back, he was going to take a bath and have a good rest.
But at this time, the master of Emperor Moon Palace arrived.
"Su Xin!" The Lord of Diyue Palace hovered in the air.
"Imperial Master Su Xin walked out of the room and bowed respectfully."
The master of the Imperial Moon Palace waved his hand, and an invisible force spread outward, instantly forming a barrier in the surrounding void to ensure that no one else could hear their conversation.
"I have some questions for you, and you must answer them truthfully," Di Yue Palace Master gazed at Su Xin.
"Su Xin nodded eagerly."
He could also see that the Lord of Diyuezong's expression was very solemn.
"Take out that fruit you just had appraised at the Treasure Pavilion, and let me have a look," said the Lord of Diyue Palace.
"Who is this for the Blood Lotus Sacred Fruit" Su Xin's heart moved, and he hurriedly took out the blood-red fruit that radiated endless temptation.
"As expected, it's the Blood Lotus Holy Fruit, and it's still in terms of cultivation."
Empress Yue's eyes flashed with a strange light, and she immediately said, "Su Xin, tell me exactly how you obtained this Blood Lotus Holy Fruit."
Su Xin then began to speak.
From Blood Sacrifice Mountains, there's no more hiding.
The only thing that remained hidden was the process of him unleashing the God-Annihilation Forbidden Technique.
When Su Xin finished speaking...
“You’re saying that the three of them, upon seeing you, attacked you without any reason” The Master of Diyue Palace stared at Su Xin, carefully judging the truthfulness of his words from his expression.
"Yeah, I still don't understand why those three wanted to kill me. And the leader among them was really strange."
Su Xin said: "That person clearly relied on secret arts to temporarily elevate his cultivation to the peak of the Broken Void realm, but the power he unleashed was not much stronger than that of an ordinary late-stage Broken Void cultivator. Furthermore, in terms of comprehension and understanding, although he had comprehended six kinds, at most he could only display the level of four."
“Then there won’t be any mistakes.” The Palace Master of Diyue Palace laughed, “They want to kill you because they saw that you, a peak cultivator of the Sea Transformation realm, was able to kill a fourth-order high-level demon beast. Such a genius, they naturally want to kill. As for that person’s strength… hmph, how much can mere external force-enhanced cultivation and lack of spiritual understanding achieve”
"Su Xin, you should remember where you met those three people in the Blood Sacrifice Mountains. I have a detailed map of the Blood Sacrifice Mountains here. You just mark the approximate location," The Lord of Emperor Moon Palace took out a map and spread it before Su Xin.
Here
Su Xin quickly marked a location on the map.
Di Yue Gong, the palace master, nodded solemnly and said, "Su Xin, today's matter, you must not tell anyone. Additionally, this Blood Lotus Saint Fruit in your hand, do not consume it lightly. You can choose to exchange it for fire points at the Treasure Pavilion, or temporarily keep it until later when you can exchange it for something useful to you."
In short, you yourself, must absolutely, definitely not use it wrongly!
"The disciple will remember Su Xin's emphasis on the head. "
Before, the first time he took out the Blood Lotus Fruit, the temptation it held had already given him some trepidation. He never dared to use it lightly.
Now that the mistress of Emperor Moon Palace spoke like this, Su Xin dared not use it any longer.
Okay, go back to rest.
The Mistress of the Imperial Moon Palace waved her hand, lifting the restrictions surrounding them. She then turned and left.
Su Xin stood there, a question mark in his heart. "What is the origin of that Blood Lotus Holy Fruit Why is it so important to the Palace Master of Emperor Moon Palace"
Although curious, Su Xin wouldn't be foolish enough to go find out for sure. Shaking his head, Su Xin returned to his room.
……
Treasure Pavilion.
“I’ve already confirmed, Su Xin was hunting monsters in the Blood Sacrifice Mountains to complete his training mission when he was suddenly attacked by three people. He killed those three and obtained the Blood Lotus Sacred Fruit from them.” The Empress of Diyue Palace finished speaking and added, “I can tell that Su Xin is not lying.”
"Hmph, whether or not he's lying can't be seen from just a word or two of his. It takes verification to know for sure." The Qingyang Palace Master then let out a cold snort.
"This is a serious matter, so I will personally go to investigate. Emperor Yue, give me the map. After Dragon Palace Master obtained the blood-stained mountain range map marked by Su Xin from Emperor Yue Palace Master, he left Heavenly Flame Palace."
And soon, the Heavenly Flame Emperor himself issued an order.
The strongest imperial guard of the Heavenly Flame Dynasty, Yinglong Guard, has been dispatched directly.
Three hundred elite soldiers, each with a cultivation level at least in the late stage of the Broken Void realm, arrived at the depths of the Blood Sacrifice Mountains as quickly as possible. They searched the area marked by Su Xin within their designated sector.
Not long after...
"It's clear that a major battle just took place here, and among those who fought, there must have been someone with exceptional swordsmanship..."
There are still some remnants of corpses on this battlefield, indicating that several people died here.
Yinglong Guard analyzed the battle traces and compiled information, which was then presented to the Dragon Palace Master. The Dragon Palace Master ultimately made the judgment.
It seems that the little guy didn't lie.
The Dragon Palace Master pondered, "The members of the Blood Lotus Cult are twisted in heart and act madly. They wouldn't venture into the depths of this Blood Sacrifice Mountain Range to hunt demon beasts unless necessary. Therefore, there must be a hidden altar of the Blood Lotus Cult somewhere within this mountain range, perhaps nearby!"
"Keep searching!"
The Dragon Palace Master ordered the Long Guards to carefully search around this battlefield, centering on its location.
But just half a day later, the Yinglong Guards found a secret door at the base of that mountain.
On that dark door, there existed a special array. Ordinary people couldn't get in at all. But the Dragon Palace Master could easily break it with his own hands and entered the dark gate. He saw the altar inside, including the eerie and terrifying statue on it, as well as the dry well.
Then the Dragon Palace master made a move, completely destroying the altar.
After successfully finding the altar, the Dragon's Palace Master basically confirmed that Su Xin and the Blood Lotus Sect had no relation whatsoever. It was indeed just a case of them being attacked by members of the Blood Lotus Sect during their journey.
Next, the Dragon Palace Master, following Su Xin's instructions, found the master of Chi Shui Island...
Before he died, that rogue young man brought out his father, the island master of Chishui Island, in order to save his life. Su Xin naturally told the Palace Master of Emperor Moon everything exactly as it happened.
Chishui Island Master is a rather capable Nirvana Realm expert.
As the leader of Chi Shui Island, he was the absolute overlord within a state. Even in the entire Tian Yan Imperial Dynasty, Chi Shui Island was considered a powerful force. Tens of thousands of martial artists lived on Chi Shui Island, most of whom were loyal to it.
Originally, as long as we didn't rebel and avoid provoking those terrifyingly powerful figures, this Redwater Island could safely rule over its territory.
...today.
Boom!
The Tianyan Imperial Dynasty's 50,000 Blood Armored Army surrounded the entire Chi Shui Island, leaving no room for escape. With a single command, they launched a direct assault without giving the master of Chi Shui Island any chance to speak. Simultaneously, five hundred-man squads from the Yinglong Guard, comprising over five hundred powerhouses at the peak of the Void Breaking stage and above, stormed in.
Three powerful cultivators from the Nirvana Realm, including even the Lord of Longxing Palace, have been deployed.
There was no room for Akimiski Island to survive.
A day and night of frenzied slaughter.
On Akasui Island, tens of thousands of warriors were slaughtered without a single survivor, not even the island master.
Moreover, at the same time, all powerful individuals and forces within the Heavenly Flame Dynasty that were closely related to Chi Shui Island were subjected to a bloody purge.
In just a few days, this Red Water Island was completely erased from the Heavenly Flame Empire!
It's as if it had never existed at all.
…… Su Xin couldn't help but understand.And at this moment, inside a forbidden room within Jiusheng Mountain, Liu Chong was temporarily detained here."Holy Lord!"Liu Chong suddenly stood up and looked at...
