Chapter 422: Chapter 422 – Become My Sword Slave!
Bai Suwan occasionally poked her head out from Zhou Xuanji’s clothes and watched the battle in the sky, continuously exclaiming.
“Wow, so powerful!”
“Are we really going to go over?”
“Little Ji Xuan, are you as strong as them?”
Zhou Xuanji felt a headache coming on listening to her and ignored her while staring at Shi Shenzong.
This fellow had nearly succeeded in becoming a Great Emperor.
He was already at Fifth Class Great Emperor!
Based on his momentum, it seemed like he would reach Second Class Great Emperor.
After all, he was one of the most astounding geniuses in the history of the Northern Wilderness.
Even the Hegemon Sword Emperor could not compare to him.
Seeing Zhou Xuanji walk towards Shi Shenzong step by step, the Hegemon Sword Emperor felt incredibly worried. However, with the two Void Extreme Immortals joining together, he could barely defend against them, and he was unable to help Shi Shenzong.
In the distance, the Hegemon Sword Sect’s sword cultivators were still bitterly fighting, and six of them had already died.
The 100 Golden Immortals that Nangong Lie had brought were evidently stronger.
“Who is that fellow? Why does he give me a sense of familiarity?” The Hegemon Sword Emperor thought to himself in confusion as he fought.
Zhou Xuanji did not immediately act, and it was evidently not because he feared him but because he wanted to fight after Shi Shenzong had become a Great Emperor.
This was because Zhou Xuanji’s footsteps had not stopped.
Zhou Xuanji looked down at his Ghost Emperor Extreme Abyss and muttered, “Today, you will reveal your splendor for the first time.”
Zhou Xuanji purposefully spoke with a hoarse voice.
Shi Shenzong frowned; just from the name alone, he could tell that this sword was not a righteous one.
A ghost sword!
Zhou Xuanji slowly walked forwards, waiting for Shi Shenzong to finish becoming a Great Emperor.
“Ding! Legendary sword grade update has been completed!
“From lowest to highest: Ordinary Ore, Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Amethyst, Glorious Gold, Heavenly Soul, Intimidating Spirit, Celestial Shaking, God Slaying, Armageddon, Ancient Gazing, Disaster Unleashing, Universe Essence, Overturning Heaven, Connecting Heaven, Nine Extreme, Primordial Chaos!”
The Sword Spirit’s voice suddenly sounded in Zhou Xuanji’s minded, making him feel quite surprised.
New legendary sword grades.
Ancient Gazing, Disaster Unleashing, Universe Essence, Overturning Heaven, Connecting Heaven, Nine Extreme, Primordial Chaos!
A whole seven new grades!
Zhou Xuanji’s breathing became ragged; the Supreme Legendary Sword System had not let him down.
Even after coming to the Great Thousand World, he could continue to rely on the legendary swords to rise up.
However, just Armageddon grade swords required Seventh Revolution Golden Immortal cultivation; what cultivation would Ancient Gazing swords require?
And what about Disaster Releasing?
Or Universe Essence?
The more he thought, the more frustrated he became. Of course, he was more so excited.
100 kilometers away, on the peak of a 600 meter tall mountain, an old beggar sat in front of the cliff. He held a roast lamb leg in his hand, making his hand incredibly greasy.
He was short and skinny, and his white hair was like dried grass. His face was covered with age spots, looking quite dirty.
He gnawed at the roast lamb leg as he said in amazement, “Three Void Extreme Immortals are battling and one person is becoming a Great Emperor. Looks like he will be able to become a Second Class Great Emperor. How interesting.”
Behind him, a soldierly man dressed elegantly walked over.
He was quite handsome and had a robust physique. The violet clothes he wore looked somewhat like dragon robes, and his eyebrows were somewhat furrowed, looking quite annoyed as he looked at the old beggar.
“Revered Teacher, are we still not going?” The violet-clothed man asked in a low voice. He felt quite frustrated towards his teacher.
The old beggar continued to look at the battle in the distance and said, “Little four, don’t think that just because you have the title of Guanlong Nether Saber that you can act all high and mighty. Back in the day, your Revered Teacher…”
Hearing this, Di Guanlong’s head started to ache.
Every time he hurried the old beggar, he would start to boast.
However, because of their positions as teacher and disciple, he still had to listen.
In his frustration, he could only look into the distance.
“Second Class Great Emperor? Hmph.” Di Guanlong coldly harrumphed, his tone filled with disdain.
After a while, Shi Shenzong finally became a Great Emperor and reached Second Class Great Emperor.
The pillar of light dissipated and he gripped a sword in each hand as he turned to look at Zhou Xuanji, his eyes burning with battle intent.
“I am the Sword Saint Shi Shenzong. Who are you, tell me your name!” Shi Shenzong shouted out. With both swords in his hands, he did not fear anything under the heavens.
Zhou Xuanji increased his speed and rushed out.
“I am the Divine Cliff’s Core Disciple, Ji Xuan!” As he spoke, he used the Eight-step Sword Lunge and came before Shi Shenzong in a single step and slashed out.
“So fast!” Shi Shenzong’s pupils constricted as he thought to himself.
He knew of the Divine Cliff’s Core Disciples; all of them were extraordinary figures.
How could a Fifth Revolution Golden Immortal become a Core Disciple?
He did not have time to think and could only instinctively use his sword to block.
Clang—
Zhou Xuanji slashed Shi Shenzong flying, and the terrifying power almost caused Shi Shenzong’s swords to fly out of his hands.
Only after flying out 1,000 meters did he stop his body by stabbing his swords into the ground and sliding back dozens of meters.
His gaze became sharp. He did not show any fear and instead exploded out with his aura as he rushed towards Zhou Xuanji.
Zhou Xuanji did not unleash his sword techniques and instead used a new sword technique that he had learned.
Wind Breath Wave-Breaking Sword!
He quickly swung Ghost Emperor Extreme Abyss, and waves of ghostly howls sounded out.
Clang! Clang! Clang…
The two of them clashed, both of their swords incredibly fast. Sword images continuously shot out, looking glorious and majestic. Wild wind also accompanied their fight, separating out a battlefield for themselves.
Zhou Xuanji used his absolute advantage in cultivation to suppress Shi Shenzong.
Shi Shenzong could only barely respond to each attack, unable to counterattack.
“Despicable…” Shi Shenzong gritted his teeth. He wanted to unleash his Sword Soul, but Zhou Xuanji’s sword was too crafty and difficult to deal with, making it so that he could not find an opportunity to unleash his Sword Soul.
Zhou Xuanji suddenly used his hoarse voice to laugh, “I’ve only ascended for a month. You’re inferior to me.”
Shi Shenzong’s pupils constricted.
Only just ascended?
Those who had ascended from the mortal realm were usually only at Fifth Tribulation Scattered Immortal; how could this person reach Fifth Revolution Golden Immortal?
Shi Shenzong’s heart trembled; at that moment, Zhou Xuanji suddenly unleashed Wind Breath Wave-Breaking Sword’s Sword Will.
In the blink of an eye, Shi Shenzong was stabbed all over his body and his sword fell out of his hand.
Zhou Xuanji’s achievements in the Way of the Sword were higher than his, and adding in the difference between their Great Emperor Class and cultivation, how could Shi Shenzong not lose?
Swish!
The tip of Zhou Xuanji’s sword landed in front of Shi Shenzong’s throat, causing his body to stiffen.
His face and ears were red, and he gnashed his teeth.
He felt so sullen that he might explode!
He had not even been able to use his ultimate skill before being defeated; it was too depressing.
Zhou Xuanji suddenly sent a telepathic message to him, causing his eyes to widen and for him to seem as if he had seen a ghost.
“I am Zhou Xuanji. Follow me and become my sword slave; I’ll definitely let you surpass the Nine Emperors of the Way of the Sword!”
Shi Shenzong was not humiliated by his words and instead fell into shock.
How could this be possible?
This person was Zhou Xuanji?
And he had Fifth Revolution Golden Immortal cultivation?
In that moment, Shi Shenzong suddenly felt like swearing, but his dignity as the Sword Saint made it so that he could not utter a single word.
“Shameless brat, if you dare to kill him, I will never forgive you!” The Hegemon Sword Emperor roared, his voice sounding like thunder.
Zhou Xuanji ignored him and looked at Shi Shenzong with a burning gaze.
Shi Shenzong’s talent in the Way of the Sword was astounding, and it would be the best if he could rope him in.
Just like the Heavenly Palace’s Xuanyuan Shenhao, who had been indoctrinated at Skyfall.
Shi Shenzong gnashed his teeth and replied telepathically, “Are you humiliating me?”
Zhou Xuanji calmly replied, “Of the sword slaves I have, two are Ten Thousand Year Princes, one is the descendant of the Demonic Emperor bloodline, one is the Exquisite Sword Mind, and one is a genius of the Way of the Sword from overseas. None of their talent is below yours. How will accepting me as your master be humiliating you?
“I am a First Class Great Emperor and killed a First Revolution Golden Immortal before I ascended, and I’ve killed Great Emperors of the past. In this world, apart from me, who has the right to make you submit? Do you want to be in this position again in the future? Would you rather follow your disciple and become a joke, rather than follow me? The Hegemon Sword Emperor cannot protect you, but I can!”
