Chapter 68: Gambling War

ally quiet and peaceful, but last night, the town was suddenly raided. Although the town organized its own guard force to resist ordinary bandit groups, it couldn't withstand the attack led by a power...Regardless of the weapons used, the comprehension of intent and feeling progresses from the first to the second level only after thoroughly understanding the essence of the nine realms.

And the second level is already the comprehension level of most Nirvana Realm powerhouses.

This Ginger Flame, despite only having the cultivation of the Mid-Stage Void Breaker, has already comprehended the essence of four realms. This is quite remarkable, a true genius. Of course, among the disciples who have cultivated in Tianyan Palace for several years or even longer, he can only be considered at the bottom.

"Duan Yunfeng and Su Xin opened their mouths, walked up."

"Su Xin"

Seeing Su Xin, Duan Yunfeng immediately broke into a smile. "Brother, I heard that you've been training hard in the Trial Tower these past two months, even sleeping inside. How is it, you should have made great progress, right"

"Not bad," Su Xin nodded slightly, "I just watched your battle with Jiang Yan. I suggest that if, in a short period of time, your strength hasn't improved significantly, it's best not to bet against him."

"Did you see through it" Duan Yunfeng glanced at Su Xin, then shrugged and said, "Actually, I saw through it too. This Jiang Yan has been deliberately hiding his strength, just wanting me to keep gambling with him."

"You saw through it, and you still bet against him" Su Xin frowned.

"I couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Brother, you know me. I'm a born fighter. Back when I traveled through the various states and counties of the Heavenly Flame Empire, it was to challenge strong opponents. Now that I'm at the Heavenly Flame Palace, these 'old men' are actively provoking me, even repeatedly lowering their conditions to pressure me into fighting. How could I refuse"

Su Xin couldn't help but shake his head. Remember the URL

The first time he saw this stretch of cloud peaks in Dongyang City, he immediately realized that it was an incredibly warlike madman.

Would such a warlike maniac, staying within the Tianyan Palace, just endure provocations from others without retaliating

That is impossible.

"It's really not a big deal. Although I agreed to gamble with them, the stakes aren't high. It's only one hundred fire points each time. Even though I've already lost thirteen games in a row, it's only a total of one thousand three hundred fire points. Duan Yunfeng said nonchalantly."

"One thousand three hundred fire points" Su Xin was startled and asked, "Didn't you only have one thousand fire points as your initial resources Where did the other fire points come from"

"Those thousand fire points were long extinguished. The fire points I have now were all earned by trading my own possessions," Duan Yunfeng said.

"Change" Su Xin asked in confusion.

"Go to the Treasure Pavilion to exchange it. The Treasure Pavilion will give you a corresponding amount of Firepoint Duan Yunfeng based on the level of the treasure you take out."

"Treasure Pavilion, could it still be like this" Su Xin was stunned.

He had only known that he could use fire points to exchange for treasures in the Treasure Pavilion before, but he didn't expect that he could also use his own treasures to exchange for fire points.

"Hey, brother, you're clearly the type who isn't short on firepower," Duan Yunfeng said with a smile. "You won the first place in the hunt and got 10,000 fire points as a starting resource right off the bat. That's more than enough to get by for a while. But we're different

>>>

“As for us hunters ranked sixth to tenth, we only have 1,000 fire points as initial resources. What can 1,000 fire points do It's gone just by exchanging for a single "Essence of Sentiment" book. If we don't rely on our own treasures to exchange for some fire points, wouldn't it be like a fool wasting such a great opportunity.”

Duanyunfeng continued, "People like me and Xia Mang both used our personal treasures to exchange for a lot of fire points. The other geniuses who entered the Tianyan Palace with us also exchanged some more or less. But there are also some who haven't exchanged any, like Mo Bing. She has no background or history, and has always cultivated alone. She simply doesn't have any valuable treasures to exchange for fire points."

So, she finally came to me and borrowed two thousand fire points from me temporarily.

"Oh" Su Xin raised an eyebrow, curiously asking, "Two thousand fire points, you said borrow and just borrow, it seems like you have quite a lot of fire points on hand, tell me, what treasure did you use to exchange for the fire points"

"Hee hee, it's nothing really. It's just a sword technique secret manual given to me by my cheap master," Duan Yunfeng said with a smile.

"A secret sword technique" Su Xin was startled and looked at Duan Yunfeng with some astonishment. "Could it be that you used the ultimate sword technique in your battle against Xia Mang"

He still remembers to this day the breathtakingly beautiful swordsmanship that Duan Yunfeng wielded on the battlefield.

The way he wielded the knife left a deep impression on him.

That was definitely a terrifyingly skillful sword technique.

And Duan Yunfeng winked at Su Xin.

"Really" Su Xin was even more astonished. "Duan Yunfeng, that sword technique should have been created by your master, right He passed the sword technique down to you, but you gave it to Tianyan Palace in exchange for a fire point"

Duan Yunfeng touched his nose, a little embarrassed. "Actually, it's nothing major. When my master gave me this sword technique secret, he acted as if he was throwing away trash. He didn't care much about this sword technique himself. Moreover, I didn't give the sword technique to anyone else, I gave it to Tianyan Palace. My master wouldn't mind."

You're really something.

Su Xin didn't know what to say anymore, he could only give Duan Yunfeng a thumbs up, "Your master, really took in a good disciple!"

……

Su Xin and Duan Yunfeng were chatting idly, while Jiang Yan had also noticed Su Xin's presence.

"Su Xin!"

Jiang Yan walked over directly and asked, "I heard you were first in this hunt. I wonder if you're interested in having a match with me"

Su Xin directly refused, uninterested, and was about to turn and leave.

"Hold on a moment," Jiang Yan said stubbornly, "Don't be so quick to leave. Just like Duan Yunfeng, you only need to last thirty breaths in my hands. If you can do that, consider yourself the winner, how about it"

"Thirty breaths" Su Xin stopped his steps and looked back at Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan continued, "Duan Yunfeng didn't even make the top five in this hunt, yet he dared to accept my wager. How come, you, the genius who is first in the hunt, are afraid to fight"

"You're right," Su Xin nodded, "How many fire points do you want to bet"

"How about a thousand fire points" Jiang Yan said a more conservative number.

He knew that Su Xin and the ten new recruits had only just entered Tianyan Palace, so they were all aware of their own limitations. Apart from Duan Yunfeng who was rather naive, the others rarely accepted their gambling matches.

Before Su Xinzhe, there hadn't been a single gambling match he had accepted.

Now that Su Xin has finally opened up, he's worried that the numbers he's sharing are too big and might scare him away.

"A thousand fire points Well, I agree." Su Xin directly agreed.

Duan Yunfeng, seeing this, couldn't help but frown and said in a low voice, "Brother, my previous bet with him was just for fun, only a hundred fire points. You directly bet a thousand, this is not a small sum, are you sure"

Rest assured, Su Xin gave a confident smile.

Just now he saw with his own eyes that Jiang Yan made his move, including the final burst of true strength to defeat Duan Yunfeng. Su Xin realized that this Jiang Yan had just comprehended four kinds of essence, and there was still some distance from the fifth kind.

And he, having just come out of the Starry Palace, had already comprehended the essence of three sword intents. In addition to these two months of continuous training and improvement in the Trial Tower, he had also comprehended the essence of four more. Even the fifth essence was about to be comprehended.

As for swordsmanship, his talent was such that even without reaching the required level of comprehension in sword intent, he could still wield his sword techniques.

Even in a head-on confrontation that determined victory or defeat, he was not the least bit afraid of this Ginger Flame.

Let alone the fact that it has only lasted for thirty breaths in Jiang Yan's hands now.

……

Seeing Su Xin accept the challenge, Ginger Flame's heart couldn't help but be filled with joy.

"As expected, all these new recruits entering the Heavenly Flame Palace were full of confidence. The higher their talent, the more confident they were. I found it even easier to get fire points from them. Another thousand fire points are mine!" Jiang Yan chuckled ominously.

"Jiang Yan is going to bet a duel with Su Xin, the first-day participant of this hunt The wager is still one thousand fire points"

"A thousand fire points, this Su Xin is really bold to accept."

These prodigies who just entered the Heavenly Inferno Palace are headstrong. They'll understand after they receive a few more lessons.

For many days, disciples of the Tianyan Palace had already gathered here, some were still chatting and laughing.

Despite knowing the rules of this duel, as long as Su Xin could endure for thirty breaths in Jiang Yan's hands under the condition that their powers were evenly matched, he would be declared the victor.

But these days, not a single elder in the Yan Palace is optimistic about Su Xin.

After all, everyone who can enter the Tianyan Palace is a top-tier genius with extraordinary talent. The Tianyan Palace also has the best cultivation environment and resources in the Tianyan Empire. A genius who has cultivated here for several years will definitely be much stronger than a genius who has only entered the Tianyan Palace two months ago.

"How could Su Xin agree to a duel with Jiang Yan And for a thousand fire points"

"Su Xin, he's a little reckless, isn't he

Xia Mang, Mo Bing and other hunters who arrived this year also heard the news and came here. They were also worried about Su Xin.

After two months of living together, they all knew the capabilities of these "elderly" individuals.

Like Xia Mang, when it comes to sheer strength, he was second only to Su Xin in the hunting arena. In Tianyan Palace, he had also challenged those "elders" several times, after which he never dared to make a move again.

He's just Duan Yunfeng, a bit headstrong.

"Su Xin, are you ready" Jiang Yan's mouth curled into a strange smile as he stared at Su Xin.

Although he made his move, Su Xin remained calm. A long sword had already appeared in his hand.

Without much conversation, Ginger Flame immediately made his move.

Wow!

As the blade flashed, similar to his fight against Duan Yunfeng, this Jiang Yan initially didn't use his full power.

If I had just gone all out from the start and defeated him, then there would be no more chance to spar with these newcomers and win fire points from them. This thought went through Ginger Flame's mind.

But seeing the blade attack, Su Xin's confidence was also a sneer, "Still putting on a show"

He could see at once that the sword light Jiang Yan was wielding now seemed just like what someone who had only grasped the essence of two realms of intent would wield.

Su Xin didn't expose him, he just waved the long sword in his hand, a heavy mountain and sea sword intent rolled up, and directly cast the Mountain Sea Scroll Sword Art.

"It's Su Xin's defensive swordsmanship!"

"This sword intent... has improved a lot compared to before."

Summer Mango, Duan Yunfeng, Mo Bing and other talented hunters this time are all watching intently.

They all knew that Su Xin's defensive swordsmanship was exceptional. He was widely recognized as the best defender during the previous hunt, and even Xia Mang, who exerted his utmost effort to activate the power of the Two Dragons and unleashed his ultimate technique, failed to break through his defense.

And now, Su Xin's defensive swordsmanship is even stronger than before when he displays it.

Jiang Yan wielded the battle sword in his hand, streaks of blade light slashing out one after another. Though he deliberately suppressed his cultivation, only using power comparable to the threshold of the Void Breaking Realm, these blade lights still caused a tremor of awe when unleashed.

On the battlefield, Jiang Yan appeared to be attacking Su Xin with a frenzy as if giving it his all, while Su Xin was desperately defending himself using his swordsmanship.

It feels like both of them have put out their full strength.

In fact, both of them were concealing their true abilities.

"This Su Xin, truly deserving of ranking first in this hunt. His strength surpasses Duan Yunfeng by quite a bit, but that's about it," Jiang Yan sneered, calculating time even as he launched a frenzied attack.

When his battle with Su Xin reached the twenty-ninth breath.

That's about it.

Jiang Yan's heart moved, and the next moment his strength suddenly erupted.

Wow!

The same blade flashed out, guided by the same power, but its speed and might increased several times instantly.

"Finally making a move" Su Xin smiled coldly.

His eyes also suddenly turned cold, and his sword intent erupted instantly.

"Roll!!!"

……areful," Su Baichen warned.“Su Xin nodded.He also understood that this blood cloud killing move was extremely famous in the Eastern Desolate land, and its value was high. Even Nirvana Realm powerhouse...
