“I will always remember!”
Xitan Changshi cupped his fist and replied reverently.
He had loyally accompanied the Emperor Yan of Zhou for thousands of years and without complaint.
The Emperor sighed. “We have nothing that we cannot let go of in this world already. When Great Zhou is stabilized, you should ascend too. We will wait for you in the Upper Realm.”
Xitan Changshi looked up at him with a conflicted expression.
The Emperor and his general looked at each other, and they understood each other without speaking a word.
...
The winter snow danced in the air and laid a silver armor on the vast forest, which gave it a melancholic beauty.
Beside the lake, Jiang Xue, Huang Lianxin, Xiao Jinghong, and the others stood in a line and enjoyed the snowy vista before them. They could not help but sigh in amazement.
”Another year of snow.”
”Unknowingly, Xuanji is already 21.”
”We passed another year peacefully.”
”Hahaha, we might find some great treasure on this snowy day.”
”Two years to the ascension of Great Zhou’s Emperor... Make a guess, do you think our master will go?”
The group talked heartily, but behind them, Zhou Xuanji was still lying in the great cauldron.
At this moment, Zhou Xuanji’s skin was alternating between gold and silver. Piping hot steam was coming out from his skin, which stopped the snow from landing on his body.
Daoya Old Man stood before the cauldron and was playing with the Three-eyed Drought Rodent with his hand.
”What kind of technique is this brat cultivating? Still not breaking through after absorbing so many herbs and medicines?”
He mumbled curiously.
There were too many mysteries that Zhou Xuanji wanted to know.
But this brat just wouldn’t say. Even Jiang Xue did not know much about him, which made his heart feel like it was being clawed by a cat.
It had been more than half a month since Zhou Xuanji entered the cauldron, and he was still not finished.
And so, another three days passed.
Zhou Xuanji finally reached the point of breaking through.
Flesh Sword was used to forge one’s flesh into the sword!
He formed a circle with his arms while the Tianxia Map was faintly visible on his palm. Spiritual Qi from his surroundings gathered around him and formed into an enormous vortex in the air above him.
”The flesh is the sword... The heart is like the sword. The eyes are the sword, the hair is like the sword...”
Zhou Xuanji mumbled to himself as his sword Qi surged all across his body. Using modern-day biological terms, he would have mastered the Flesh Sword when his sword Qi transformed into cells.
Once he accomplished it, all parts of his body could become a fearsome sword.
”A little more!”
Zhou Xuanji gritted his teeth and roared.
Boooom!
The Spiritual Qi flooded into his body forcefully and caused the entire cauldron to shake violently.
Everyone turned around and was excited by what they saw.
”Our master is going to succeed?”
Huang Lianxin cried out in surprise. They walked over immediately.
”Hold on! Stay away from him!”
Daoya Old Man raised his hand and cried out, looking anxious.
The group heard and immediately stopped.
Shwoooosh! Shwoooosh! Shwoooosh...
Strands of sword Qi flew out from the great cauldron and soared toward the sky like fireworks. It was impressive.
”Such powerful sword Qi...”
Zhao Congjian cried out in amazement. Admiration was all over his face.
Boooom!
The great cauldron exploded and all the medicinal water splattered everywhere.
Zhou Xuanji flew up, beaming with gold and silver radiance. His sword Qi surrounded his body like a tornado.
”My children, look carefully. I will let you witness today what ‘man is the sword, the sword is man’ means. I’m going to become a sword!”
Zhou Xuanji smiled and said. Silver light beamed out from his eyes and his entire body seemed like it would disappear any moment.
After he spoke, he soared into the sky.
The silver light enveloped his body, which turned into a silver stream that flew across the sky swiftly. The falling snow was circling in the air as he shot past them, generating strong gale winds.
Everyone looked up and was nervously anticipating.
After the silver light dispersed, Zhou Xuanji disappeared. Instead, they could only see a long silver sword.
The blade was snow-white, and there were many patterns carved onto it. There were dragon scales, flames, ghosts, falcon, and so on. The two ends of the quillon were two dragon heads, while the end of the hilt was an emperor’s crown. The entire sword looked magnificent and was obviously a legendary sword.
The long sword circled in the air and made everyone’s jaws drop.
Zhou Xuanji really became a sword?
Shwoooosh!
The long sword swooped down and immediately transformed into Zhou Xuanji, who landed before them.
Sword Qi Golden Body Incantation Level Five, Flesh Sword, Accomplished!
Zhou Xuanji sensed the surging power in his body and could not help but roar loudly.
His physical strength increased tremendously as well. It could no longer be measured by human standards.
The Sword Qi Golden Body Incantation was a physical cultivation technique after all.
He turned to look at Chongming Demon Monarch and smiled, “Come, punch against my punch!”
Chongming Demon Monarch was a Seventh Rank demon and a bull demon, so he had great physical strength.
”Full strength, or?”
Chongming Demon Monarch asked with a raised brow. Naturally, he did not want to be beaten up.
Zhou Xuanji nodded and said, “Full strength!”
After hearing this, he immediately became excited.
Finally, an opportunity to teach Zhou Xuanji a lesson!
”Deal. You can only use your physical strength and not spirit energy or sword!”
Chongming Demon Monarch walked to a nearby place and said.
Jiang Xue, Xiao Jinghong, and the others looked at him with despise, which he pretended not to see.
Zhou Xuanji walked toward him and smiled, “I always act on my words. If we are competing for physical strength, then I will just use physical strength.”
The human and demon faced each other and were 10 meters apart. No one stood behind them.
Chongming Demon Monarch was tall and muscular. His bull horns pointed to the sky, and he revealed his intimidating aura totally.
He slapped his chest and said proudly, “My iron fists have beaten everyone in Great Shang!”
Today, he would let Zhou Xuanji witness his power.
”How was it compared to Great Shang’s Fury Buddha?”
Zhou Xuanji asked playfully, which made Chongming Demon Monarch’s proudful expression crumble immediately.
”Okay, I’m going to punch.”
Zhou Xuanji walked forward. Chongming Demon Monarch charged toward him.
10 meters was such a short distance for them!
They came up to each other with just one step, and they punched at almost the same time.
The powerful gust blew against everyone’s faces and made them hurt. With a loud thump, Zhou Xuanji and Chongming Demon Monarch’s fists clashed together.
The White Dragon Golden Robe danced loudly in the wind as Zhou Xuanji’s feet sunk into the snow. Chongming Demon Monarch’s feet sunk too.
Both slid backward.
”Not bad. Very strong!”
Chongming Demon Monarch praised, but in his heart, he was shocked.
Oh my!
How is he so strong?
Zhou Xuanji smiled and said, “Take another punch!”
After that, he swung his left arm.
Chongming Demon Monarch reacted quickly as well and threw his punch.
Baaam!
Chongming Demon Monarch was sent flying out straight away. His massive body glided backward dozens of meters before landing.
After he landed, he continued to slide for almost 10 meters, leaving two long trenches in the snow.
His left arm was shivering as he looked up at Zhou Xuanji in fear.
”How can it be...”
Chongming Demon Monarch swallowed his saliva and mumbled to himself.
The others were stunned as well.
Just with physical strength alone, Zhou Xuanji had already surpassed a Seventh Rank demon?
Moreover, a bull demon!
Zhou Xuanji shook his numb left hand and smiled, “You are doing well in your training recently. From tomorrow onwards, you must increase the intensity of your training.”
After hearing this, Chongming Demon Monarch immediately became anxious, “I’m going through enough hardships. I cannot increase anymore.”
With his sluggish nature, the current training was far more than what he used to do.
Zhou Xuanji walked up to Jiang Xue and asked boastfully, “Is the sword I transformed into handsome?”
