Chapter 251 - Emperor Hanlan (1/2)

“Only the top 50?” Zhou Xuanji asked as he took out a set of white clothes and put them on.

The lightning around him had disappeared and his skin returned to its normal fair complexion.

Killing two Ninth Rank great demons could only get him into the top 50?

Zhou Xuanji felt somewhat displeased. Now that he had obtained another Heavenly Soul legendary sword, his battle strength would definitely increase by leaps and bounds. He could become even more powerful!

After reaching the Spirit Refinement stage, despite absorbing the demon energy from two Ninth Rank great demons, he was still unable to break through.

It was quite strange.

Perhaps this was the downside to having ridiculous strength—the amount of spirit energy he required for breaking through was much more than what other people required.

“It’s already absurd, alright? When I was your age, I was still looking up at the Inner Pellet stage,” Xian Xianghua said in annoyance as she rolled her eyes. However, her eyes were bright.

This boy in front of her gave off the aura of a powerful expert more and more.

Thinking back to when they had first met, things were completely different from back then.

“Oh, your talent was that lacking?” Zhou Xuanji asked teasingly as he looked into the distance.

Jiang Xue, Xiao Jinghong, Ning Zifeng, Zhao Congjian, and the others flew over with the second generation disciples, all of them looking incredibly excited.

That battle had caused their blood to boil!

This was especially so for the second generation disciples. They felt an impulse to offer their lives to Zhou Xuanji and go through water and tread on fire for him.

An expert like this was worth them following for their whole lives!

Nan Ruyun brought a group of Hanyin Divine Sect’s Elders and Managers and descended.

They all bowed as they paid their respects, saying, “Thank you for your assistance, senior!”

In the world of cultivation, those with power reigned supreme!

Since Zhou Xuanji was more powerful than them, he was their senior!

Xu Xianxuan stood behind them, looking at Zhou Xuanji with a burning gaze. She did not go up and greet him, as the gap between them was simply too great.

Zhou Xuanji slightly nodded and continued to wait for Jiang Xue and the others to arrive.

“What is the Tyrant Emperor Ring?” He asked inwardly curiously. He always felt great interest towards the Supreme Legendary Sword System’s equipment.

“It can increase one’s Emperor’s Might, store spirit energy, and create a defensive barrier that will automatically activate when facing lethal damage and counterattack.”

Hearing this, Zhou Xuanji’s eyes lit up. What a treasure!

Seeing that Zhou Xuanji did not say anything, Nan Ruyun and the others did not dare to speak either and silently waited.

Xian Xianghua looked at Zhou Xuanji’s face and fell into her thoughts; no one could tell what she was thinking.

After a while, Jiang Xue and the others arrived. They surrounded Zhou Xuanji, clamoring noisily.

Zhou Xuanji smiled as he answered their questions. His attitude towards them and towards the Hanyin Divine Sect were completely different.

“Senior Zhou, would you like to come into the city so our Hanyin Divine Sect can thank you?” Nan Ruyun asked as she cupped her fists. Zhou Xuanji’s strength had completely convinced her, so she naturally wanted to try to rope him in.

She glanced back at Xu Xianxuan with her peripheral vision, a plan forming in her mind.

Zhou Xuanji nodded and led his group into the city.

After breaking through, he needed some time to consolidate his cultivation.

During this battle, Zhou Xuanji had charged into an army of millions of demons by himself, ascended a tribulation, and killed two Ninth Rank great demons. This would definitely shake the entire Northern Wilderness.

Since the war between the two races had begun, the human race had not yet had such a big victory.

It was not that the human race did not have powerful experts, but every time the powerful experts acted, the demon race would send equally powerful beings to defend.

In less than three days, news of this battle spread across the Northern Wilderness, causing countless people to clamour.

“Zhou Xuanji broke through to Spirit Refinement! He also survived an Ascension Tribulation. Doesn’t this mean he’s guaranteed to break through in the future?”
