Chapter 1041

Now that they had heard Su Chen's commentary on Wu Wudi, they were even more convinced that this man was the fated nemesis of Di Shitian.

Moreover, with Wu Wudi having gathered three hundred years of martial Dao fortune from the Wu family, his cultivation speed would only grow faster and faster; it was highly probable that he would break through to the peak of the Martial Saint realm in a few decades.

If Di Shitian wanted to defeat him, there truly was only one path to take: dragon slaying.

"I hope the Sect Master can gather the seven dragon-slaying divine weapons."

Luo Xian murmured, a trace of confusion in her eyes.

It was already incomparably difficult to gather the seven dragon-slaying divine weapons, and now that Su Chen had made it public, there would only be more experts participating in the scramble.

It would be no easy task for Di Shitian to achieve his wish.

……

Fourth private room in the East District.

"Lingyun Cave again? There really are quite a lot of treasures in this Lingyun Cave."

The Human-Faced Envoy stroked his chin, clearly showing great interest in the *True Martial Art*.

"What a *True Martial Art*; if I could obtain it, I would surely soar to the heavens!"

Senior Dugu Ming said with great envy.

But thinking of the fact that the technique was carved in such a terrifying place as Lingyun Cave, he could not help but sigh.

"The Fire Qilin in Lingyun Cave possesses the most malevolence; anyone who can venture deep inside must have a way to resist the killing intent."

"I suppose Wu Wudi left the *True Martial Art* in Lingyun Cave out of this very consideration."

"This technique is too dangerous; if the person who obtains it is not strong enough, it will only be a disaster."

Senior Dugu Meng said softly.

Upon hearing this, Nie Feng's eyes lit up, feeling as if this technique were tailor-made for him.

First, in order to rescue Nie Renwang from Lingyun Cave, he had to venture into it.

Second, he possessed the family-inherited *Ice Heart Formula*, which could suppress killing intent to a great extent.

After all, no matter how strong the killing intent accompanying the *True Martial Art* was, it could not be stronger than the malevolence within the Fire Qilin's bloodline.

Thinking of it this way, this *True Martial Art* was simply tailor-made for him.

……

"Ding!"

"The host has exposed several Jianghu secrets in the discussion, causing shock throughout the venue. Rewarding 8 Popularity Points."

"Storytelling popularity has exceeded 37,877,000 points."

"The host has accumulated three Purple-Gold Lottery Cards, seven Platinum Lottery Cards, three Gold Lottery Cards, seven Silver Lottery Cards, and seven Bronze Lottery Cards."

"Please keep up the good work, host."

Listening to the system's notification sound, Su Chen could not help but reveal a smile.

A full 37 million popularity points; this growth rate was 30% faster than he had expected.

Feeling even more motivated, Su Chen unfurled his Autumn Moon Fan and said in a clear voice:

"Next, let us comment on the next Martial Saint on the list."

"Eleventh place on the Martial Saint Ranking: A Qing."

"Regarding this Martial Saint, all you fellow Jianghu travelers should be very familiar with her."

"She was originally just a shepherdess in the Yue State, gradually realizing the true essence of Sword Dao through sparring with a white ape every day."

"Rather than saying her swordsmanship was learned from the white ape, it is better to say it was learned from Heaven. Heaven-bestowed Sword Dao allowed her to lead the human Sword Dao."

"As of now, A Qing's cultivation has infinitely approached the peak of the Martial Saint realm, and her attainments in Sword Dao have reached the peak level."

"She is also the only Land Sword Immortal in the world today, and at the peak of the Land Sword Immortal realm, only her cultivation is a fraction lacking."

"If her cultivation could advance one step further, she could rank among the second-tier Martial Saints."

"Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, A Qing is tentatively ranked eleventh on the Nine Provinces Martial Saint Ranking."

As Su Chen's voice fell, everyone in the hall began to cheer.

Especially those swordsmen, each one of them was extremely excited.

Sword Immortal A Qing!

This was the pride of human swordsmen.

And Su Chen's commentary made everyone even more astonished.

A Qing's Sword Dao was learned from Heaven!

If these words had been spoken before, everyone might not have understood them.

But after the decisive battle between Yun Yang Dingtian and Wu Wuer, everyone already knew of the existence of the Heavenly Dao.

If Yun Yang Dingtian of that year was someone detested by the Heavenly Dao,

then A Qing was undoubtedly the darling of the Heavenly Dao, allowing her to leap from an ordinary shepherdess to the pinnacle of human swordsmanship!

Who could not be excited by such a secret?

More people looked toward the Bai Yu Platform with burning eyes, filled with anticipation.

An existence as strong as A Qing could only rank at the top of the third-tier Martial Saints.

One could imagine how terrifying the second-tier and first-tier Martial Saints were.

……

On the Bai Yu Platform.

Su Chen did not deliberately keep them in suspense; facing everyone's gaze, he said directly:

"Next, let us comment on the Martial Saints ranked in the second tier."

"Tenth place on the Martial Saint Ranking: Xiao Aoshi."

"This person is the Xiao family Martial Saint I mentioned earlier, possessing the bloodline of the Divine Turtle, one of the four great divine beasts."

"He deduced from the *Pushing Back Secret Scroll* that the Great Tribulation of a Thousand Autumns originated in Dongying, and in order to promote the outbreak of the Great Tribulation, he crossed the ocean to the Dongying Jianghu."

"After arriving in Dongying, Xiao Aoshi first took Hayato Tenin, who bore the divine mandate of Amaterasu, as his disciple, and then founded the Xuanhua Firm, secretly controlling the Dongying Jianghu as the Grand Master."

"It can be said that the Grand Master Xiao Aoshi is the mastermind behind the Dongying Jianghu; whether it is the Hidden Sword Stream or the Dongying Imperial Family, all are under his surveillance."

"The martial arts he practices are even more powerful, being one of the two quasi-Emperor absolute arts inherited by the Xiao family: *Ten Thousand Ways of the Forest*, which is incomparably powerful."

"As everyone knows, every internal and external technique has its specific attributes; if one learns too many mixed techniques, it is very easy to fall into demonic obsession."

"Yet the *Ten Thousand Ways of the Forest* practiced by Xiao Aoshi can completely ignore this, freely accommodating various different and even mutually exclusive martial arts for his own use."

"The so-called 'Ten Thousand Ways' means transforming all laws of the heavens for one's own use; anyone who fights him, even if they possess absolute arts they do not use, can have them stolen by him and performed perfectly."

"And the most terrifying aspect of this technique lies in its ability to predict the opponent's psychology and weaknesses in advance; no one has any secrets before him."

"Although he passed this technique to Hayato Tenin, he simultaneously mastered the absolute art that can restrain *Ten Thousand Ways of the Forest*: 'The Four Great Evils'; if Hayato Tenin dares to provoke Xiao Aoshi, there is only a dead end."

"As of now, the Grand Master's cultivation has reached the peak of the Martial Saint realm, and combined with *Ten Thousand Ways of the Forest*, his combat power has reached an unfathomable and terrifying state."

"Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, he is tentatively ranked tenth on the Nine Provinces Martial Saint Ranking."

……Thousand.
