Chapter 554 - Sword Sovereign Acknowledges Allegiance (1/2)
Swish! Swish! Swish…
The one million Emperor Sword Court disciples advanced as they trained with their swords. It was a grand procession, and the sound of the air being torn by swords combined together, spreading throughout the world and shaking people’s hearts.
Zhou Xuanji was at the very front, and apart from him, Jiang Xue, Xiao Chan, and Daoya Old Man, everyone else was training with their swords.
As for the little black snake, Chongming Demon Monarch, Zhou Xiaoqi, and other beasts, they remained on Skyfall.
As Zhou Xuanji traveled, he spoke using his Great Dao’s Voice.
His Great Dao’s Voice could only be considered to be elementary, and it was not as amazing as the old immortal’s.
The only use was to make the disciples keep a calm mental state so that they could focus on practicing with their swords without any distracting thoughts.
To date, Emperor Sword Court had eight million or so people. There were two million official disciples, so this group was only a portion of Emperor Sword Court.
The sound of one million people training with their swords together was incredibly massive.
In less than a year, news of the Sword Emperor promoting the Way of the Sword spread through the Wanshen Great Thousand.
Using the sword to support the world, using the sword to save the people!
Emperor Sword Court continuously recruited disciples, causing there to be more and more people training with their swords together.
In the current situation, when the Wanshen Great Thousand might be destroyed at any moment and not every creature could escape from the Wanshen Great Thousand, being in a large group made them feel safe.
At the same time, Zhou Xuanji’s Great Dao’s Voice could cause all listeners to maintain a calm mental state; just this was incredible.
To cultivators, mental state was the most important thing.
If there were problems with their mental states during cultivation, it would be easy for them to be bedevilled.
When Sage Daojing expounded the Dao, most creatures could not understand. However, when they heard his voice, they would feel calm and gain instant enlightenment—this was Saint’s Voice!
Great Dao’s Voice was higher than Saint’s Voice, but it was a pity that Zhou Xuanji’s comprehension of the Dao was not enough.
On the path of promoting the Way of the Sword, there were disciples breaking through every day; the scene was quite spectacular.
The Emperor Sword Court’s name also spread throughout the Wanshen Great Thousand.
Eight years later, there were now more than five million disciples following behind Zhou Xuanji.
The five million people practiced with their swords as they advanced, creating a grand spectacle.
All of the disciples’ blood boiled, and no one dared to slack off.
The creatures that they passed by were all dismayed.
Soon, Emperor Sword Court gained momentum.
A momentum that seemed unstoppable, as if they were going to pierce through the clouds!
A completely unstoppable momentum!
Zhou Xuanji continuously used his Great Dao’s Voice. He did not feel tired, and he instead felt incredibly spirited as he gained comprehension in his mental state as well.
The Dao was in his heart, and it was also in every creature’s body.
The Dao could also fuse together!
The spirit qi in the Wanshen Great Thousand was very dense, and Emperor Sword Court’s disciples’ cultivation were all quite weak. The original one million disciples’ cultivations had improved by leaps and bounds, as if they were using cheats.
They were already used to internalizing qi while training with their swords.
As they swung their swords, their pores would open and close, internalizing spirit qi. This felt even better than sitting down and cultivating.
On this day, two figures walked towards them from ahead.
It was Sword Sovereign Gu and Shi Shenzong.
Shi Shenzong looked at the majestic procession from afar, a complicated look in his eyes.
He acknowledged that he was inferior to Zhou Xuanji, but Zhou Xuanji’s growth speed was simply ridiculous.
Comparing himself to Zhou Xuanji, he felt incredibly weak.
“Sword Emperor, I am Sword Sovereign Gu. Will you spar with me today? If I lose, I will join Emperor Sword Court!” Sword Sovereign Gu said as he held his sword with a reverse grip.
His voice was incredibly loud, covering the sounds of the five million people training with their swords.
Zhou Xuanji was expressionless. He raised his right hand pointed at the sky, and the five million disciples all stopped and looked at him out of curiosity.
Sword shadows appeared in the air, quickly increasing in number, until they covered the sky and hid the sun.
Five billion sword shadows!
The sword shadows were all pointing downwards, and everyone was dumbfounded as they looked at them.
