Eternal Bonds: A Journey with the Fated Immortal

Chapter 52

“Blood Sword Dynasty?”

Su Changsheng sat down, lightly tapping his fingers, his expression calm as he looked at Su Yun.

“The Ziyue Emperor harbors a deep hatred for the Blood Sword Dynasty. Her father, the previous Ziyue Emperor, was killed by the Blood Sword Dynasty, and their nation was nearly destroyed!”

Su Yun explained respectfully.

This information was something he had investigated, or rather, it was no longer a secret.

The Ziyue Dynasty was once close to being a top-tier force. The previous Emperor was exceptionally talented, nearly reaching sainthood.

However, the strength of the Ziyue Dynasty also aroused the apprehension of the Blood Sword Dynasty, who feared that their advancement to a top-tier force would threaten the Blood Sword Dynasty’s status.

Thus, they set a deadly trap, killing the Ziyue Emperor and even advancing all the way to the Ziyue capital.

If not for subsequent issues within the Blood Sword Dynasty and the presence of hidden experts in the Ziyue Dynasty, the Ziyue Dynasty would have been annihilated.

But even so, the Ziyue Dynasty was now in a precarious situation.

The Blood Sword Dynasty had already amassed an army of a million, preparing to wipe out the Ziyue Dynasty in one fell swoop.

Therefore, the current Ziyue Emperor harbored immense hatred for the Blood Sword Dynasty, even willing to use herself as a bargaining chip just to see this force destroyed.

“I see!”

Upon hearing this, Su Changsheng pondered for a moment. Destroying the Blood Sword Dynasty wouldn’t be too difficult.

“Agree to her request!”

Su Changsheng nodded.

The Ziyue Divine Physique, while not the most supreme, is still quite formidable.

Su Changsheng also aimed to accumulate strength gradually, not expecting to always acquire the most supreme divine physiques or saint physiques, as that was unrealistic.

“Ancestor, what about the Holy Maiden of the Tianyu Sect?” Su Yun asked hesitantly.

“Let her come see me!”

Su Changsheng’s expression remained composed as he waved his hand. Su Yun felt a chill in his heart. Although he understood the Ancestor’s decision, he still harbored some concerns.

“…Ancestor, this Holy Maiden of the Tianyu Sect is deeply connected to a significant figure in the Crimson Refining Demon Palace. I’m afraid we might provoke the Crimson Refining Demon Palace!”

Su Yun hesitated for a moment before gritting his teeth and speaking.

“Don’t worry, I have my own way of handling things!”

Su Changsheng glanced at him, his tone calm as he said, “Just go ahead and do it without worry!”

“By the way, from now on, Su Ziyuan will be the Divine Maiden of the Su family. Cultivate her with full effort. Her status and authority will be equal to yours, understood?”

His gaze shifted to Su Yun.

An invisible pressure descended, causing Su Yun’s heart to tremble. He immediately lowered his head.

“Yes!”

Su Yun responded in a low voice.

This point did not surprise him.

In his view, Su Ziyuan possessed a superior divine physique, so it was only natural to cultivate her as the family’s Divine Maiden.

“Go now, and handle things properly!”

Before long, Su Yun left, leaving Su Changsheng to sit alone.

“Sigh, I still need to become stronger!”

Su Changsheng sighed lightly. The Crimson Refining Demon Palace was, after all, a colossal entity.

Although he did not fear it, there was still a sense of pressure.

Then there was the Great Saint Secret Realm mentioned by the Ninth Princess. Although he did not intend to go, he had a feeling that he would end up being connected to this secret realm.

And this connection was most likely the Ninth Princess.

And to solve these problems, the most crucial factor was powerful strength.

“Enough, I will attend the Myriad Dao Immortal Alliance auction this time. Hopefully, I can purchase some resources to break through to the Ninth Level of the Saint Realm and then quickly advance to Saint King!”

Su Changsheng’s eyes gleamed.

The Myriad Dao Immortal Alliance was an extremely formidable commercial force, with unfathomable depths. Even an imperial-level power like the Eternal Imperial Court spoke of it with caution.

Its branches span across the Changsheng Immortal Realm, countless divine domains, and numerous time-space worlds.

There was also a branch of the Myriad Dao Immortal Alliance in the True Saint Continent.

The timing of their auctions was irregular, sometimes occurring once every hundred years, and other times once every thousand years.

Each auction was a grand event, attracting top-tier experts from nearby continents. The weakest attendees were at the Eternal Realm, or they were prodigies and geniuses from major powers.

There were quite a few Saints, several Saint Kings, and occasionally even a Great Saint appeared.

Every auction features numerous rare and powerful divine items, and treasures that could directly enhance a Saint’s cultivation were not uncommon.

In the past, Su Changsheng never participated because he lacked the capital to bid and feared that a Saint might target him and easily kill him.

But now, he had the confidence to take part.

“Hmm. I need to prepare some resources to ensure I have enough money to buy the auction items.”

Su Changsheng murmured softly, and then his figure disappeared.

Origin was the hard currency at the Saint level.

For auction items of this caliber, only Origin and Divine Origin could be used as settlement currency.

Spirit stones were no longer qualified.

……

Night fell, and the bright moon hung high in the sky.

Su Changsheng sat on a stone chair in the pavilion, bathed in the moonlight. Thousands of silver rays cascaded down, and Su Changsheng sat leisurely, drinking wine, resembling an immortal.

Around him, spiritual energy swirled like mist, continuously circling. His eyes, clear as spring water, gazed into the distance.

“Buzz–”

Before long, a figure in white appeared from beyond the heavens. Her skin was like jade, and the moonlight reflected off her, casting a bright glow as if she were emitting light.

She was an unparalleled beauty, with features as delicate as a painting, exquisitely charming. She seemed like a celestial maiden descended from the Moon Palace, yet also like an enchanting demoness capable of causing chaos in the mortal world.

Cold and holy, alluring and captivating, two completely different temperaments were perfectly fused together in her.

She was mesmerizing, making it impossible to look away.

“I am An Miaoyi, greetings to Saint Changsheng!”

The figure in white stepped gracefully on the moonlight, each step taken with her delicate jade feet in elegant shoes, causing the moonlight to ripple brilliantly with every step.

She approached Su Changsheng, her beautiful eyes gazing at him, and spoke in an extremely gentle tone.

Her voice was cold and captivating, yet carried a soft, enchanting allure.

Her voice was a delight to the ears.

“Sit!”

Su Changsheng raised his hand and poured a cup of spiritual wine. The rich aroma filled the air, bursting with the essence of the Dao, with visible fragments dancing within.

“Heavenly God’s Wine, truly befitting Saint Changsheng. Such generosity, allowing a humble woman like me to taste a wine I might never encounter in my lifetime!”

An Miaoyi exclaimed in surprise.

Heavenly God’s Wine was a spiritual wine at the Saint level, containing the essence of the Dao and fragments of Dao rules. It could help cultivators comprehend the Dao and even significantly advance their cultivation.

Just a small cup of it could bankrupt someone at the Eternal Realm, hence its name, Heavenly God’s Wine.

The implication was that only gods were worthy of drinking this wine.

This top-tier spiritual wine was something she couldn’t afford, even as the Holy Maiden of the Tianyu Sect!

“This is just a small gesture, drink up!”

Su Changsheng beckoned with a slight smile. His handsome, almost immortal-like face carried an extraordinary charm with just a simple smile.

“Thank you, Saint Changsheng!”

An Miaoyi spoke softly, then extended her delicate fingers to pick up the white jade wine cup. She drank it all in one gulp, showing great poise without any girlish affectation.

“Truly, this is a peerless wine!”

After drinking the cup, two blushes appeared on her cheeks. An Miaoyi’s face turned red, and her breath was fragrant like orchids. She was somewhat intoxicated, her eyes looking at Su Changsheng with a dreamy gaze.

Inside her body, the wine transformed into vast spiritual energy, carrying the power of rule fragments. It surged through her divine physique, purifying it further and continuously enhancing her cultivation.

“As long as you like it!”

Su Changsheng also set down his wine cup, his gaze falling on the slightly intoxicated An Miaoyi. A hint of amazement flashed in his eyes.

She truly deserved to be the Holy Maiden of the Tianyu Sect, the possessor of the Tianyu Divine Physique.

Such beauty and temperament were truly rare in the world.

“I heard from Su Yun that you wanted to see me?” Although he was amazed by An Miaoyi’s beauty, Su Changsheng quickly regained his composure and looked at her, asking softly.

“Saint Changsheng, there’s no need to beat around the bush. I am here with utmost sincerity, hoping that you would take me in, even if it means becoming a concubine. I am willing!”

Upon hearing this, An Miaoyi blinked her beautiful eyes, pretending to be drunk. With a flushed face, she leaned towards Su Changsheng’s embrace, acting coquettishly.

“Who is that significant figure from the Crimson Refining Demon Palace? What is their strength?”
