Chapter 153 - Astral Infant Stage, Glorious Gold Hegemon Jiu (1/2)

“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:
