The Sword Appreciation Festival organized by Zhao Yuandian would be held three months later. However, Su Xin would be in seclusion during that time, so he only had a little more than two months left.
It would take about two months to travel from Jiangnan to Sky Sun City in Eastern Jin, even on a fast horse. However, Su Xin chose to travel on foot.
This was not because Su Xin had a special hobby, but because he wanted to use this method to temper his inner strength.
Now that Su Xin had perfected the Divinity Stage and was halfway to the Primordial Divinity Stage, he could no longer feel any increase in his inner strength if he continued to cultivate. Now, if Su Xin suddenly had an epiphany, he could immediately ascend to the Primordial Divinity Stage.
Therefore, Su Xin didn't choose to cultivate his inner force. Instead, he prepared to use his inner force to rush along the way. He would use all of his inner force to recover. Although this wouldn't increase his inner force, it would make his inner force purer.
Therefore, with Su Xin's ascetic monk-like cultivation method, even if he walked, it still took him two months to reach Sky Sun City.
Two months of cultivation had made Su Xin a little unkempt. He found a random inn to wash up and change his clothes before he was ready to go out for a stroll.
Tie Zhan did not give him the contact information of the secret agent in Sky Sun City, but Tie Zhan did say that as soon as he arrived in Sky Sun City, the local secret agent would definitely be able to find him. Therefore, Su Xin could wander around Sky Sun City without worry.
Sky Sun City was the border between Eastern Jin and the Zhou Kingdom. It was also a trading ground for both sides. Therefore, the entire Sky Sun City was extremely prosperous and was not inferior to the major prefectures such as Jiangnan Prefecture.
The Zhou Kingdom had been at war with Eastern Jin Kingdom for several decades now. Back then, if the Zhou Kingdom's Human Emperor, Ji Haodian, had waited a little longer to take action against Du Yuansheng's Sanxiang Martial Union and focus on Eastern Jin Kingdom first, he might have been able to destroy Eastern Jin Kingdom in one fell swoop.
Du Yuansheng had died, the Sanxiang Martial Union had fallen apart, and the last few remnants of the Sanxiang Martial Union had also died in Chang Ning Manor. Whether or not there were any secrets to this matter, only the Human Emperor of the Zhou Kingdom knew.
However, in Su Xin's opinion, there must be some secret that outsiders didn't know about.
Ji Haodian was a mighty ruler who had led the Great Zhou Dynasty to rise. At that time, he hadn't shown the appearance of old age yet. In the end, he impatiently went to get rid of Du Yuansheng, making a bad move. This was not something a mighty ruler like Ji Haodian would do.
Because of that incident, the current Eastern Jin Kingdom had inherited the Great Jin Kingdom. Although the current Eastern Jin Kingdom's territory was less than a fifth of the Zhou Kingdom's, it could still rival the Zhou Kingdom. At the very least, it was impossible for the Zhou Kingdom to destroy Eastern Jin Kingdom.
As Su Xin strolled around Sky Sun City, he suddenly felt a gaze on him.
Originally, Su Xin thought it was a secret agent from Six Doors who had contacted him. However, Su Xin felt that something was wrong.
If it was a secret agent of the Six Fan School, the other party could have contacted him in secret instead of staring at him on the street with naked eyes.
Su Xin turned around and saw a young man holding a purple gold spear walking towards him.
Although Su Xin didn't know this person, the other warriors in Sky Sun City exclaimed, "'Seven Demon Spear' Yan Dongchen! Why is he here? Is he here for the Sword Appreciation Festival? "
Someone retorted, "Yan Dongchen uses a spear. Sword my ass!"
Of course, Su Xin had heard of the 'Seven Demon Spear' Yan Dongchen who was ranked eighth on the Ranking List of Young Masters. He was one of the few warriors in Eastern Jin Kingdom who could make it onto the Ranking List of Young Masters.
The Ranking List of Young Masters was issued by Six Doors of the Zhou Kingdom. Naturally, they had to take care of the sects and warriors in the Zhou Kingdom. Therefore, even if some of the young warriors in Eastern Jin Kingdom were capable enough to make it onto the Ranking List of Young Masters, Six Doors would not put them on the Ranking List of Young Masters.
However, Yan Dongchen was different. He was born in the Eastern Jin Kingdom's military and had cultivated all the way to the Innate Stage from a small soldier. He was then accepted as a disciple by the God Martial Pavilion of Eastern Jin and was taught meticulously.
The God Martial Pavilion of Eastern Jin had been around since the founding of Dajin. It was initially a place that was responsible for cultivating powerful warriors from the royal family.
However, now that Eastern Jin Kingdom had declined, they naturally did not adhere to the old rules. Therefore, any young warrior from Eastern Jin Kingdom was eligible to join the God Martial Pavilion. However, the rules were very strict. Sometimes, the God Martial Pavilion would not accept a single disciple for several years.
After Yan Dongchen cultivated to the Complete Divinity Stage in the God Martial Pavilion, he followed the army of Eastern Jin to conquer some barbarian tribes deep in the mountains and forests of Eastern Barbarian.
The barbarian tribes of Eastern Barbarian were different from the foreign tribes of Southern Barbarian who worshipped some random gods.
The barbarian tribes of Eastern Barbarian lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests to avoid the war in the Central Plains during ancient times. Their martial arts skills were passed down from ancient times and they were definitely not weak.
During the expedition to Eastern Barbarian, Yan Dongchen shone brilliantly. He once killed more than ten Eastern Barbarian warriors who were at the pinnacle of the Divinity Stage on his own. He even broke into the Eastern Barbarian tribe to assassinate their leader and escaped from the Great Elder who was at the Essence Soul Stage.
All these achievements were there for all to see and they were so dazzling that even Six Doors could not ignore them. They had no choice but to put Yan Dongchen on the Ranking List of Young Masters.
One could say that Yan Dongchen was the pride of Eastern Jin. Many of the Eastern Jin martial artists present looked at Yan Dongchen with respect.
However, Yan Dongchen left the military for an unknown reason and went to the Zhou Kingdom to make a living in Jianghu. He only returned to Eastern Jin after he made it to the top 10 on the Ranking List of Young Masters.
However, it was also because of this incident that some of the martial artists in Eastern Jin called Yan Dongchen a traitor.
"Bloody Sword Holy Finger, Su Xin?" Yan Dongchen asked.
Su Xin nodded and said, "That's right. What can I do for you, Brother Yan?"
Yan Dongchen took a deep breath and placed the Violet Gold Spear in front of him. He then said in a deep voice, "Let's fight!"
Su Xin looked at Yan Dongchen's eyes and understood what he meant.
Yan Dongchen's purpose for coming here was very simple. He was here to ask Su Xin to fight.
The competition for the Ranking List of Young Masters had always been fierce. Lin Changhe had broken through to the Primordial Soul Realm, He Xiu and Xiao Huang had gone into seclusion. It was estimated that they would have broken through to the Primordial Soul Realm when they came out of seclusion.
Therefore, the people in the back were even more anxious. The more vacancies there were, the more likely it was for the people in the back to take it. After all, everyone wanted to take the first place on the Ranking List of Young Masters.
Lin Changhe, He Xiu, and Xiao Huang were so powerful that they were in two different realms compared to the other martial artists on the Ranking List of Young Masters.
However, it was different for the top 10 martial artists on the Ranking List of Young Masters. The gap between them was not as big as that of the other three. They could compete with each other for the first place on the Ranking List of Young Masters.
At this time, when the people on the street heard that the person in front of them was Su Xin, the Bloody Sword Holy Finger, they immediately showed disgust and hostility in their eyes.
The Zhou Kingdom and Eastern Jin Kingdom had been enemies for so many years. Especially now that the Zhou Kingdom had beaten the original Great Jin Kingdom into Eastern Jin Kingdom, which was located in the east of Great Jin Kingdom, the hatred between them was huge.
Therefore, the martial artists on both sides basically hated each other, especially in Eastern Jin Kingdom, which was the weaker side. The martial artists here were extremely xenophobic.
Xiao Yang City was not so bad. After all, this city had been trading with the Zhou Kingdom all year round. There were martial artists from both sides. Therefore, the martial artists of Eastern Jin Kingdom were just a little bit xenophobic.
If Su Xin entered the hinterland of Eastern Jin Kingdom now, he would probably be besieged by a large number of martial artists from Eastern Jin Kingdom as he was the chief of detectives of Jiangnan Province.
Now that they saw Yan Dongchen challenging Su Xin, they were more than happy to see Yan Dongchen trample on Su Xin.
It would be even better if Yan Dongchen could rank No. 1 on the Ranking List of Young Masters in the future. One could imagine the facial expressions of the people from the Zhou Kingdom Kingdom if a martial artist from Eastern Jin were to rank No. 1 on the Ranking List of Young Masters.
"Let's fight then," Su Xin said.
Among the top 10 martial artists on the Ranking List of Young Masters, Su Xin had only fought with He Xiu and Yue Qingping.
When he fought with Yue Qingping, Su Xin was not in his peak condition. Moreover, He Xiu's ability was so powerful that he could not be treated as a Divinity Level martial artist. Therefore, Su Xin wanted to see exactly how powerful the top 10 martial artists on the Ranking List of Young Masters were.
Hearing what Su Xin said, Yan Dongchen shook the Violet Golden Spear in his hand. Suddenly, an iron-blooded aura surged out.
Yan Dongchen was an ordinary soldier. Later on, he followed the Eastern Jin Kingdom's army to conquer Dongyi. Therefore, the killing intent of the army was very strong.
The spear was like a dragon. Suddenly, a strong wind blew on the long street. A purple spear shadow whizzed out, rolling up the bluestones on the ground along the way. The entire long street was in a mess.
Any martial artist who came from the army would definitely be powerful and imposing when they attacked. Yan Dongchen was a perfect example of that.
Su Xin grabbed with one hand. Suddenly, dozens of sword auras burst out. The invisible sword auras stirred up the wind and clouds and slashed at Yan Dongchen.
"Break!"
Yan Dongchen shouted. The Violet Golden Spear seemed to have transformed into a strong wind dragon. It roared and charged at Su Xin's Invisible Sword Aura.
Yan Dongchen's nickname was' Seven Spear '. It was his nickname and also the spear technique that he performed.
This spear technique was the 'Nine Heavens Dragon' of his Seven Spear. It had the power to shatter the sky!
A violent sound of earth Qi was heard. Su Xin's Invisible Sword Aura directly killed the Nine Heavens Dragon. Yan Dongchen retreated quickly. His legs even sank into the ground. He was pushed back step by step by the powerful force.
Su Xin flicked his five fingers. The sword auras were either soft and corrosive, or fierce and violent. All kinds of sword auras were unleashed at his will.
This was the power of the second stage of the Innate Invisible Sword Aura. The sky was filled with sword auras. Now, Yan Dongchen felt like he was fighting against hundreds of sword cultivators.
Yan Dongchen's Violet Golden Spear swept out. In an instant, the wind howled and the sound of earth Qi exploded.
"Army Destroyer!"
The Seven Spear was fierce and explosive. Its power was unparalleled. But under Su Xin's sharp sword aura, Yan Dongchen was suppressed to the point where he couldn't even lift his head. Every sword aura was actually imbued with a trace of Sword Will of Destruction, causing his hands to go numb.
His spear technique could break the army, but it couldn't break Su Xin's Innate Invisible Sword Aura!
