I Have Countless Legendary Swords! - Chapter 153
Chapter 153: Astral Infant Stage, Glorious Gold Hegemon Jiu
“Shall we get them?”
Zhao Congjian looked toward Xiao Jinghong and asked softly. He did not take these enemies seriously at all.
The Sword Noble nodded and said, “I will deal with the Astral Infant guy. The rest are yours.”
Zhao Congjian had no objections. Both disappeared from their positions almost simultaneously.
The battle exploded into action in an instant.
Half an hour later.
The two returned to their original position. The trees that surrounded them were all knocked over. Blood was everywhere. Haoqi Alliance’s cultivators were all lying dead in the forest.
The hands of both were full of storage rings and bags.
They were well-taught by Zhou Xuanji to not fight for nothing.
They took account of all their plunder, before taking out a large piece of cloth and packing everything inside.
“Should we save this prince of Great Chen?”
Zhao Congjian asked. He frowned slightly and did not want to get involved in the trouble.
“We have already saved him. What more can we do?” Xiao Jinghong said expressionlessly.
“Go! Return home!”
“Okay!”
Both concurred and turned to leave.
The blue-robed young man laid motionless on the white wolf like a dead body.
…
After they returned to their underground cavern, Xiao Jinghong and Zhao Congjian told the rest what happened.
They were not surprised by the prince of Great Chen.
After all, there was a prince of Great Zhou with them.
“Let’s discuss further after Xuanji is done with his breakthrough. If he can’t even stay alive for half a month, he will die in the future even if we save him.”
Daoya Old Man waved his long sleeve and said indifferently.
There were so many life and death matters. How many could they care for?
They already saved the prince of Great Chen. The rest depended on his fate.
The group had no objections.
Zhou Xuanji, whose entire body was golden, was still sitting in the cauldron, and hot air was rising all around him. His brows were knitted tightly as the mixture around him continued to bubble, which was frightening just by the looks of it.
Another 10 days passed.
Zhou Xuanji broke through to Soul Fountain Level Seven.
“Congratulations, the Sword Owner obtained [Glorious Gold] Hegemon Jiu!”
The Sword Spirit’s voice resounded in his mind again, and he opened his eyes.
Next, three lines of small words appeared before his eyes.
Sword Name: Hegemon Jiu
Grade: Glorious Gold
Description: The beloved sword of one of the Nine Emperors of the Sword’s Way, the Hegemon Sword Emperor. It is unrivaled in the ordinary world and contains within itself the power to destroy the heavens and the earth!
…
It was a Glorious Gold legendary sword!
Zhou Xuanji was pleasantly surprised. No wonder the Hegemon Sword Emperor was last and the most reputed ancient Sword Emperor.
After him, there were no sword cultivators who were acknowledged as a Sword Emperor by the world.
He did not feel that the Hegemon Sword Emperor was more powerful than the Sky-sundering Sword Emperor, but more generous instead.
The Sky-sundering Emperor Sword was not the Sky-sundering Emperor’s best sword. That guy was extraordinarily petty and only gave him two sword techniques.
The worst was that the Sky-sundering Sword Emperor Wang Xiaofei set dozens of stages for his trial.
Every time he thought about it, Zhou Xuanji could not help but despise Wang Xiaofei.
He did not take out Hegemon Jiu immediately since he had all the time in the future to do so.
Instead, he continued cultivating, absorbing the energy in the herbal mixture.
Time continued to pass.
12 days later.
He successfully broke through to Astral Infant Level One!
With his introspection, he sensed that a tiny infant was formed in his body with the same face as him. Spirit Qi from all his ligaments and bones flowed into the astral infant and condensed into spirit energy together with the Golden Core.
His spirit energy increased tremendously!
With Astral Infant Level One, his spirit energy increased more than 10 times compared to when he was still at Soul Fountain Level Ten.
“Analyzed that the Sword Owner has reached Astral Infant stage. Gacha begins!”
“Ding! Congratulations, the Sword Owner has obtained [Gold] Dream Sword, Evil-exposing Mirror, ten Concealing Grass!”
Gold legendary sword?
Zhou Xuanji did not care about it, but was interested in the Evil-exposing Mirror and Concealing Grass instead.
Information of the Dream Sword appeared before his eyes:
Sword Name: Dream Sword
Grade: Gold
Description: Forged with ancient mirage stones, which can easily trap people in a mirage.
…
The ability is not bad.
He liked to trap people in a mirage.
“Evil-exposing mirror can expose the form of evildoers. Of course, if the person’s cultivation is too high, then it will not work.”
“Concealing Grass allows the user to become invisible and hide his Qi-signature. The duration is one hour.”
The Sword Spirit introduced, which pleased Zhou Xuanji.
All have great uses!
* It will be much more convenient for future adventures.*
Especially the Concealing Grass. I can use it to escape.
Shortly after, he continued to appropriate his new cultivation stage.
The effect of the herbal mixture had yet to run off. He could continue to sit inside.
Nearby, Daoya Old Man, Jiang Xue, Xiao Jinghong, and the rest gathered.
“He really reached Astral Infant. So fast.”
Xiao Jinghong mumbled to himself. His eyes were full of admiration.
Daoya Old Man chuckled, “Don’t even think about it. You are not physical cultivators, so you cannot bear the intruding effects of the Thunder Core Grass. He endured a month of painful suffering, which would be unbearable for most people.”
The group nodded with respect for Zhou Xuanji.
During the month, they did not even catch Zhou Xuanji make a sound due to his pain. His endurance garnered their deep respect.
The little black snake praised him, saying, “He’s the one I chose to follow.”
But Chongming Demon Monarch laughed in disdain and insulted him, “But my master made the wrong choice. You don’t deserve to be part of our group!”
“You…”
The little black snake was so angry that his body was shaking. If not for the fact that he was not powerful enough, he would have sure fought Chongming Demon Monarch with his life.
Another three days passed.
Zhou Xuanji jumped out of the Cauldron. His skin was like gold and streams of lightning surrounded his body.
Lightning flashed faintly in his eyes, which looked very impressive. The muscle lines on his upper body were perfect. They were balanced, exuding both strength and beauty, mesmerizing Jiang Xue and Huang Lianxin.
He quickly leaped into the lake to bathe himself.
The lightning dispersed together with the lake water. Ah Big and Small Er, who were playing around in the water, were electrocuted and flew out of the lake immediately. They knocked themselves against the ceiling and almost fainted.
The group saw what happened and burst into laughter.
Daoya Old Man stroked his long beard and praised, “The power of lightning. This guy really has talent in physical cultivation. Great Zhou’s bloodline indeed. He is really like his father.”
After Zhou Xuanji walked out of the water, he jerked his body, and the water on his skin evaporated.
“It was rumored that Emperor Yan of Zhou was a Great Accomplisher in physical cultivation. He could smash a mountain into pieces with one palm strike.”
Xiao Jinghong said softly with curiosity in his eyes.
He really wanted to know how powerful Zhou Xuanji would become in the future.
Would he be like the Hegemon Sword Emperor, who dominated an entire generation?
Zhou Xuanji put on his White Dragon Golden Robe and opened his arms. Jiang Xue quickly ran into his arms, which kicked up a fuss among the rest.
“Damn! Throwing out dog food again!
TL: “Dog food” is an internet term referring to couples showing off their relationship in front of those who are single.
The little black snake complained, and then Chongming Demon Monarch sent him flying off with a kick.
Dog food was a term Zhou Xuanji taught to them by Zhou Xuanji.
They had followed Zhou Xuanji for quite a while and learned many fresh vocabularies from the earth.
Zhou Xuanji stretched his neck and smiled, “I feel excellent. Come, let’s go out for some game to roast. Take out some good wines to celebrate. How about that?”
“Okay!”
Beixiao Wangjian was the first to agree. He looked at Zhou Xuanji with a burning passion, as though he was looking at an otherworldly beauty.
Xiao Jinghong, Zhao Congjian, and Huang Lianxin agreed too.
After Zhou Xuanji’s successful breakthrough, he would teach them more powerful sword techniques.
They were excited just from the thought of it.
The group packed up and quickly left the underground cavern.
After they got up, they immediately saw a silhouette.
20 meters away, a young man with tattered clothes was washing his face. Zhou Xuanji and the group suddenly jumped out of the world and gave him such a fright that he fell backward to the ground.
“Don’t come near me!” He moved backward as he shouted in fear, “I’m a prince of Great Chen!”
Zhou Xuanji rolled his eyes and said, “So what if you are a prince of Great Chen? I’m a prince of Great Zhou!”
“Yeah! I’m the grand-teacher of the prince of Great Zhou!”
Daoya Old Man said with a despicable smile.
