Chapter 185 - The Day of Our Ascension Will Be The Day Of Your Marriage (1/2)

Zhou Xuanji opened his eyes and glanced at him with a strange expression. “Isn’t it normal?” He asked.

He had no enemies, so there was nothing wrong with someone prophesizing his destiny.

Daoya Old Man frowned. “This mind is very powerful. Only a few surpass me in the Northern Wilderness Region. All of them are powerful hermits or immortals. Whoever they are, once they have their eyes on us, we will become very passive.”

Zhou Xuanji understood his worry and comforted him, “Don’t worry. If they can prophesize our destiny, then it will not matter where we go since we cannot escape the power of divination. It’s better to focus on cultivating to make ourselves more powerful.”

Daoya Old Man thought about it and could only nod his head.

However, he still could not put aside worries, so he turned to leave. He planned to set up some spells to guard against such mind power from probing into them.

Zhou Xuanji shook his head with a smile and continued his cultivation.

All he thought about in his heart was to reach Astral Projection as soon as possible. By that time, he would no longer need to hide.

Jiang Xue walked over with a roasted fish and sat beside him. “Xuanji, eat something first,” She said.

At their cultivation, they no longer needed food.

However, they still loved the taste and fragrance of food, which was hard for them to let go of.

Zhou Xuanji took over the roasted fish and asked, “How is your cultivation?”

He took a bite. The fish skin was fragrant and crispy. The flesh was tender and tasty. This girl’s culinary skills were getting better and better.

Jiang Xue tidied the strands of hair by her ear and said, “The Nature Regenerative Spell is a little difficult. But I’m confident that I can master it. At that time, I can heal your injuries much faster.”

Zhou Xuanji smiled satisfactorily and patted her head. “You are already a qualified nanny.” He said.

Jiang Xue’s face blushed and he threw him a stare, saying, “I’m still a youthful lady, don’t say that.”

There was a faint bitterness in her eyes.

“Why? Are you in a hurry to marry me?”

Zhou Xuanji asked with a raised brow. Their relationship was already apparent. It was just that they had yet to make that kind of breakthrough.

They were not married yet, after all.

Now that they were living like fugitives because of all these dangers, Zhou Xuanji did not dare to marry her.

He was not worried about the dangers. It was just that after getting married, their attitude and responsibilities would change. Moreover, they were still young.

Cultivators were on a quest for immortality rather than nurturing the next generation like ordinary people.

“Humph! You wait!”

Jiang Xue snorted. After that, she reached out with her hand to pinch Zhou Xuanji’s face.

“Don’t play around. What if I’m choked to death by the fishbone? Then, what?”

“An Astral Infant cultivator choked to death by a fishbone?”

“Of course. Everything is possible in this vast world!”

“You only know how to quibble.”

The two played with each other a while more, and Jiang Xue left after Zhou Xuanji finished the fish. She was going to roast other games.

Zhou Xuanji lifted his right hand to conjure the Tianxia Map and continued to study it.

He spent some time studying the Tianxia Map every day.

The Tianxia Map should have been more than just a supporting artifact. He hoped to find out about its offensive functions.

Autumn came.

Four months had passed.

Zhou Xuanji reached Astral Infant Level Seven.

At this rate, he would reach Astral Projection before Emperor Yan of Zhou ascended.

Han Shenbo and Xiao Jinghong had begun working on breaking through to Astral Projection. The others made progress in their cultivation as well.

Jiang Xue, Huang Lianxin, and Beixiao Wangjian were getting closer to Soul Fountain.

With the Three-eyed Drought Rodent around, they could always find all sorts of natural treasures. Together with the plunders they took from their enemies before, their cultivation progressed swiftly.

On this day, Zhou Xuanji began to work on his Sword Qi Golden Body Incantation Level Five, Flesh Sword!
