Chapter 156: The Furious Axe Venerable

together. They have all learned about Su Xin's assassination."Head of the family, we Su family absolutely cannot pretend nothing happened about this. We must retaliate!" The second elder, Su Tie Tong,...On the lake surface, a burly man with a giant axe on his back sat there casually.

Suddenly, a feeling stirred within him. He opened his eyes.

"Secret map"

This burly man had just received a message from a friend who was also venturing in Flamewater Lake.

"Was this spread by a Venerable Five-Step Nirvana from the enemy camp on purpose"

"Is it a trap, or is Venerable Five Steps trying to use our strong fighters to help him kill that Second Stage Nirvana Realm expert"

"Hee hee, interesting,"

The burly man rose and immediately dashed towards that area.

……

In that area, Su Xin kept following the guidance of the hidden map, searching for the location of the treasure.

He also had to thank Si Tu Feng, because before this, Si Tu Feng and Xue Peng Venerable had been searching for a long time in this area, and they had marked all the places they had searched on the map. This greatly reduced his search range.

Such searching, however, did not last long.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Two figures had already appeared within his sensory range, rapidly approaching him.

Unable to sense the aura of a medal, the enemy faction's powerhouse Su Xin immediately became alert.

And the two Four-Step Pinnacle experts who arrived saw Su Xin and both showed expressions of surprise.

Second Rebirth Realm!

"It's him!!"

The two of them didn't hesitate and immediately attacked Su Xin.

After only a short while...

The two of them stopped their actions.

They stood on the lake surface, looking at Su Xin in front of them, but their faces were extremely grim.

"This two-step nirvana realm, it's surprisingly troublesome"

At first, the two were still wary, wondering if Su Xin had cultivated some special secret technique and deliberately concealed his cultivation aura.

As they truly engaged, Su Xin's true energy erupted. They confirmed that his cultivation was indeed only at the Second Step of Nirvana Realm.

But just this two-step Nirvana realm, the strength displayed, is in no way inferior to any four-step peak powerhouse. The key is that the methods are extremely powerful.

They had both exhausted all their efforts, even using their trump cards, but they still couldn't do anything to Su Xin.

Under our attack, his breath didn't weaken at all, he was clearly unharmed.

"This…"

The two of them looked at each other, both feeling troubled.

"What should I do"

After some discussion, they quickly made a decision.

Let's go.

With a sigh, the two could only choose to leave helplessly.

"I'm sorry, but this battlefield isn't like the Tianshui Secret Realm that Su Xin broke through to the Void Refinement Realm in."

Initially, within the Heavenly Water Secret Realm, Su Xin's attainment of the Dao fruit triggered a bloody frenzy. Countless powerful individuals descended upon him, desperately vying for his life. If one couldn't kill him, then they would gather in large numbers to take him down together.

The Scarlet Abyss Battlefield was where powerful figures from both sides clashed and fought. Within this Blazing Water Lake, there were not only strong fighters from the Heavenly Palace Camp, but also numerous powerhouses from the Nine Saints Mountain faction. Their attempt to gather more warriors to encircle and kill Su Xin was simply impossible.

After all, Su Xin isn't stupid either. He sensed something was amiss and could also send a message to the strong individuals in the Jiushengshan camp for help. At that time, it would be a battle between the two camps with many powerful figures clashing together.

Su Xin did not stop the two from leaving, nor did he take them seriously, thinking they were just powerful figures from opposing camps who happened to meet at Yan Shui Lake.

Over the next five days, after encountering four powerful adversaries from opposing camps in succession, he finally began to feel something was amiss.

"Five days, four powerful opponents encountered, and they were all from the enemy camp. How could this be so coincidental" Su Xin thought to himself.

He is currently searching in this area, which is a very small part of the entire Yan Shui Lake. There are strong individuals who roam here, but generally speaking, it's normal to encounter a wave every few days to several dozen days.

How is it possible to encounter four waves in just five days, and they are all from hostile factions

And when he fought against those four opposing camps of powerful fighters, he discovered that they were all giving it their all, using every trick up their sleeves to kill him. In fact, many of these people directly used their trump cards from the start.

You have to know, these hostile strong contenders' trump cards aren't easy to use, and some even come at a price. If there wasn't enough benefit, why would they start by unleashing their trump cards to kill him

It seems like Su Xin has been schemed against. He's finally figured it out.

Without a doubt, the only one who knew he possessed the secret map was undoubtedly the Blood Peng Venerable.

"Bloodhawk Venerable..." Su Xin's eyes narrowed, a murderous intent surging in his heart.

"Hmph, do you think it's that easy to borrow the strength of those from the opposing camp to kill me"

Su Xin smiled coldly, even knowing that he had been tricked by the Xuepeng Venerable. Many powerful figures from opposing camps would come to Flamewater Lake to kill him and seize the secret map. However, he was not too afraid.

This is not arrogance, but reality. He has the capital for it.

……

Inside Yan Shui Lake, Su Xin was still searching in that area.

Three days later, Su Xin's figure suddenly stopped, raising his head to look at the emptiness in front of him.

There, a stalwart figure was striding across the void, approaching him step by step.

That imposing figure seemed to walk very slowly, but with every step he took, he would cover several meters at once.

In an instant, it appeared before Su Xin.

"Five Steps Nirvana Venerable!"

Su Xin still looked calmly at the newcomer.

Over the past few days, some powerful figures from opposing factions have come looking for him, but they were only at the Four Steps Nirvana realm, with at most two or three Four Steps Pinnacle Venerables joining forces. He could handle them with relative ease.

At last, a Venerable Five Step Nirvana has finally come.

"This giant axe..."

Su Xin, looking at the imposing figure before him, saw the two-meter long golden axe strapped to his back and immediately understood who he was dealing with.

"Even the usually composed Master Nùchǔ, Su Xìn, looked grave."

Before coming to the Fourth Realm, he also went to inquire with the Venerable Youhou about some information about powerful enemies in the Fourth Realm.

This Venerable Axe, in the Fourth Realm, is quite famous.

He is not only a genuine five-step Nirvana Venerable, but also possesses the 'Dao Bing' giant axe. His strength among five-step Nirvana Venerables is considered extremely powerful. It is said that his axe technique is terrifying, with immense power to the extreme.

Once the ultimate technique is fully unleashed, its power even approaches that of a peak five-step master.

"You, are you Kenichi"

The imposing figure of the Venerable Anger Axe, with the bearing of a powerful warrior, coldly looked down at Su Xin before him.

"Rarely, Lord Nu Axe, esteemed as you are, would know of me," Su Xin smiled faintly.

"As a Second Step Nirvana realm cultivator, you saw me arrive and didn't immediately flee. You have some guts."

The Venerable Nudoax's voice boomed, continuing, "Hand over the map to the hidden treasure in your possession, as well as the talisman needed to enter it. I promise you, I will let you leave."

"No need to go through all that trouble," Su Xin chuckled, "Just kill me. Forget about that hidden map, everything I have - resources, treasures, it'll all be yours."

"Die!"

Master Nu Axe's eyes turned cold, and with a step he immediately moved out.

Although there was still a distance exceeding that of ordinary people, this angry axe venerable crossed it in a single stride. The two-meter long golden giant axe he had always carried on his back had already appeared in his hand.

Wow!

There was nothing fancy about it, the golden axe simply swung down directly.

A golden axe flashed through the void, and the air crackled with a deafening boom as it tore through space. It seemed as if the very fabric of reality would be cleaved asunder.

Su Xin immediately swung his sword with all his might, still employing the heavy power of Yingshen Style.

"Bang!"

The giant axe cleaved against the Blood-Purple Divine Sword. Su Xin only felt a tremor run through his arm, and a terrifying force surged along his arm before he was sent plummeting towards the lake below like a meteor.

"Thump!"

The originally placid lake surface was instantly shattered by a colossal pit with a diameter exceeding one hundred meters. Though the pit was immediately filled by the surrounding water, the impact's force still caused waves to ripple across the lake.

Whoosh!

Su Xin's figure once again swept out from the lake, standing in the void.

He looked at the Furious Axe Venerable before him, and couldn't help but admire him, "Deserving of being a Five Step Nirvana Venerable with a Dao Soldier, this strength is truly terrifying. The power of that axe just now was at least ten times stronger than my Shadow Sword Art, completely crushing me."

"Fortunately, my physical body is strong. Otherwise, with just that single axe blow, I would have been seriously injured."

Su Xin's physical body, comparable to a top-grade treasure, was incredibly powerful.

Though the Venerable Angry Axe's ax wielded immense power, directly crushing him, much of the power within its strike impacted his body. Yet, his flesh withstood it effortlessly, suffering no harm whatsoever.

But looking at Su Xin who had reappeared before him, the Anger Axe Venerable also had a hint of surprise in his heart.

Though he only used seven points of strength in that axe strike, even a Second Step Nirvana Realm expert wouldn't be able to withstand it. Even a Fourth Step peak expert would likely be severely injured facing his attack.

Looking at Su Xin before him, he still had a powerful and energetic aura. There was no sign of being seriously injured or hurt at all

"Humph!"

With a cold snort, the Venerable Anger Axe struck again.

This time, he held nothing back.

Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! ~~

Golden axe shadows slashed out one after another.

Every swing was like splitting mountains and cleaving peaks, clean and decisive, yet incredibly powerful.

Each axe, empowered by the Dao Soldier's blessing, wielded terrifying power. Even a pinnacle Fourth Step expert giving their all would find it difficult to directly receive its full force.

While Su Xin immediately unleashed his defensive swordsmanship, transforming himself into a vast expanse of mountains and seas. He struck again and again with his sword, desperately parrying the golden axe shadows descending upon him.

The golden axe's power was simply too overwhelming. Despite Su Xin's skilled defensive swordsmanship, which could effectively deflect and absorb the force, he was repeatedly pushed back or knocked away, looking utterly miserable.

In the blink of an eye, Su Xin was struck by the enraged axe wielder dozens of times.

It seemed like a complete and utter rout, but the Venerable Furious Axe furrowed his brow.

If the first attack before was held back, and Su Xin didn't get hurt, now after dozens of attacks, every axe he wields is exerted with all his might. Although it seems that Su Xin is struggling to defend, the Angry Axe Venerable can clearly sense that the aura on Su Xin has not weakened at all from beginning to end.

That is to say, after dozens of attacks, his overwhelming power did not inflict any harm on Su Xin.

"I still have an axe!"

If you can still receive this axe without any harm, I'll turn around and leave.

The Venerable Rage Axe stood in the void, wielding his colossal axe. He stared coldly at Su Xin, his voice booming across the surrounding emptiness.

"Ready to unleash your ultimate move"

Su Xin remained calm, knowing that the Wrathful Axe Venerable had a unique skill, incredibly powerful. When fully unleashed, it was almost at the peak power of a five-step realm expert.

"Just as well, I have a secret weapon too.

"

Su Xin smiled faintly, and on his right hand that gripped the sword, a strange crimson crystal had already appeared.

Stellar Hand, already unleashed!

……at he couldn't keep up with Su Xin's speed. He could only stand there, allowing Su Xin to attack relentlessly while he passively defended....reduced to a target!Damn!"If I didn't have this formation,...
