NOVPUBWei Shengxin probably wanted to make a move against him as well; he simply had hesitations for the time being.
If Wei Shengxin hadn’t taken action now, it meant that he hadn’t broken through to Martial Saint yet.
Once Wei Shengxin broke through to the Martial Saint realm, it was very likely that he would actively seek out Su Changkong’s whereabouts to settle scores. Given this, it was better to take the initiative to approach him!
Su Changkong was indeed worried about Wei Shengxin.
From Ji Xuexiao, he had learned of the strengths and weaknesses of a Martial Saint. If Wei Shengxin managed to achieve Martial Saint through his own cultivation and then refine the Divine Seed he controlled, he would possess two Divine Skills and be in the second layer of the Entering Saint realm!
By refining the Divine Seed to achieve the realm of Martial Saint and mastering a single Divine Skill, being in the first layer of the Entering Saint realm, Su Changkong believed that with all his might, there might be a chance for a fight.
If it was the second layer of the Entering Saint realm, with two Divine Skills, the combat power unleashed would not be as simple as 1+1=2. Su Changkong did not believe he had much chance of winning against such a powerful opponent.
The reason Su Changkong could previously face five enemies and slay Gu Lie and the others was because his advantage over them was not merely one Pseudo Divine Skill; his foundation in Martial Arts was far deeper than theirs.
Facing a Martial Saint from the second layer of the Entering Saint realm who might come knocking for revenge at any time... Su Changkong would rather face a God’s Son who had not yet become a Martial Saint!
"Even if I can’t kill Wei Shengxin and force him to refine the Divine Seed to become a Martial Saint, this would be tantamount to cutting off his path."
Moreover, it wasn’t necessary to kill Wei Shengxin; as long as he could exert immense pressure on Wei Shengxin, forcing him to choose to immediately refine the Divine Seed to become a Martial Saint, it would then be as difficult as reaching the heavens for him to gain a second Divine Skill, and he wouldn’t be a threat!
And there would be no need to worry about him becoming a second-layer Entering Saint and causing trouble afterwards.
After Su Changkong’s Giant Whale Skill broke through to the 11th realm, he had the idea to confront Wei Shengxin immediately, but he was delayed due to trouble at Ji Xuexiao’s end.
Now that he had forged five Blood Divine Seeds into a ’Pseudo Divine Weapon’, Su Changkong couldn’t make a qualitative breakthrough in combat power in a short period of time, so he made up his mind to eliminate the threat!
As for Qin Miesheng, Su Changkong felt this was an even greater threat than Wei Shengxin, and although Qin Miesheng hadn’t reacted much in three years, the threat always existed.
But Qin Miesheng was too mysterious, and Su Changkong had no idea where he was. Over the years, Su Changkong had also contacted Xia Yanjie through his Identity Token, asking him to help inquire about Qin Miesheng with Hong Zhenxiang.
Hong Zhenxiang had assimilated most of Pang Shengwu’s memories, but Pang Shengwu himself didn’t know much about Qin Miesheng, and Qin Miesheng was unlikely to share his secrets with his subordinates. Su Changkong found it impossible to locate Qin Miesheng, who was likely still alive.
Even if he knew where Qin Miesheng was, approaching him without knowing his full capabilities was far too dangerous!
Dealing with the threat from Wei Shengxin was what he needed to do at this moment!
"Wei Shengxin... I’ll return the oppression you gave me back in the day!"
Su Changkong caressed the blade of the Blood Prisoner’s Knife, his eyes flickering with a cold gleam.
Su Changkong was always someone who acted upon his thoughts, and having made up his mind, Su Changkong immediately sprang into action.
Before going to confront Wei Shengxin, Su Changkong brought himself to the peak condition.
He had refined all the nearly a hundred top-grade Spirit Stones he obtained from the Heavenly Dragon Cave Sky and, along with Turtle Breathing True Qi absorbed from Zuo Qiu and others, increased the Mysterious Turtle True Essence in his Dantian to as much as 110 drops.
After all this, Su Changkong waited at the Spirit Taoist Sect.
Not long after, Su Changkong sensed a familiar aura outside Zhongling Mountain. Without hesitation, he headed down the mountain.
In a forest, a woman in white, seemingly shrouded by an invisible icy wind, awaited quietly, it was Ji Xuexiao!
For dealing with Wei Shengxin, the best course of action was to kill him on the spot. Su Changkong mobilized all the resources at his disposal.
Ji Xuexiao possessed a Divine Seed and had also reached the Soul Realm in terms of her soul. Su Changkong speculated that she could refine the Divine Seed and become a Martial Saint at any moment.
If Wei Shengxin became a Martial Saint and his combat power exceeded Su Changkong’s, then Ji Xuexiao could also refine the Divine Seed to become a Martial Saint and could hold her ground against him!
The true combat power of a Martial Saint was something Su Changkong could only estimate. Facing a Martial Saint reincarnate who could achieve that status at any moment, he had to be careful!
Su Changkong didn’t think there was anything wrong with his plan, as he had helped Ji Xuexiao last time, or else she would have had no choice but to refine the Divine Seed in the face of five Martial Artists from the Blood Demon Sect.
Of course, involving Ji Xuexiao was just to add an extra layer of security, not actually to ruin her future prospects to help him deal with Wei Shengxin.
"Brother Blade, did you seek out Xue Xiao for a reason?" Seeing Su Changkong, Ji Xuexiao’s voice was cold and clear, like a stream of ice water, moving one’s spirit.
Su Changkong had reached out to her using the Ice Crystal Leaf she had left behind before, which certainly indicated he needed something.
"Wei Shengxin and I have a deep grudge, and given his character, once he becomes Martial Saint, he will surely seek revenge against me; that’s why I want to seek him out and end our enmity... Therefore, I would like to ask Miss Ji to accompany me. Having you by my side would give me the reassurance to act without any reservations!"
Su Changkong spoke frankly, revealing his reason for seeking Ji Xuexiao’s assistance.
Ji Xuexiao was somewhat surprised: "You want to make a move against Wei Shengxin?"
If it were anyone else, Ji Xuexiao would certainly doubt their sanity, challenging a God’s Son who could become a Martial Saint at any moment. Even the strongest Innate might not be able to defeat the weakest Martial Saint!
