Little Jiang Xue shook Qiu Baili’s arms, waking him up all of a sudden.

“Grandpa, what do you mean by him having the potential of a grandmaster, and that he is sure to become a Sword Emperor?”

Little Jiang Xue asked out of curiosity. It was not the first time that she had seen Qiu Baili be visibly shocked by Zhou Xuanji. In her heart, Zhou Xuanji was a never-before-seen genius. In the future, he would be surely become an immortal being.

Qiu Baili looked at Zhou Xuanji, perplexed, faintly saying, “There are countless methods of cultivation to become an immortal. Although the sword is the most common weapon and enchanted artifact, rarely would there be people who aim for the real Way of the Sword. Those who have reached Great Accomplishment in the Way of the Sword can venture freely across the world.”

“Within the same stage, the sword cultivators who mastered sword wills are stronger than their fellow cultivators.”

“Since ancient times, there were Nine Great Sword Emperors. All of them are individuals who had overwhelming power that dominated an era.”

“Zhou Xuanji has already mastered two sword wills yet he is only six. Such talent has never been heard of.”

“In due time, he might become like the current Sword Emperor, and his name will become a legend that will be remembered forever.”

Little Jiang Xue cried out in amazement as she heard this. Although she did not understand, she felt that it was awesome.

If Zhou Xuanji became the most powerful person in the world, then she would not need to hide again.

Regarding the Nine Great Sword Emperors, Qiu Baili had only read of them before in the ancient tomes of his sect. He was only at the Inner Pellet stage so it was understandable that he did not know much about the Northern Wilderness Region, let alone the entire world.

However, he believed that there weren’t many people who had such talent as Zhou Xuanji.

Even if there were, he wasn’t at the level to meet them anyway.

Not long after.

Zhou Xuanji stored his sword. He looked down at his hands and saw that his skin appeared to have a faintly metallic texture.

He had finally achieved the second level of Golden Body Incantation, Metal Chassis.

Lines of information appeared before his eyes.

Sword Owner: Zhou Xuanji

Race: Royal Bloodline of the Great Zhou

Cultivation: Foundation Building Level One

Energy Technique: Golden Body Incantation

Sword Technique: White Crane Sword Technique, Fiery Sword Technique, Eight-Step Sword Lunge

Special Ability: None

…

His list of attributes had already become quite large.

And there’s a new talent in the list, Simultaneous Execution?

Sounds a little like chicken ribs. (TL: “Chicken Ribs” is an online term that refers to something with dubious value)

Hold on!

Swineculling Sword?

Zhou Xuanji was attracted to the name of the last legendary sword. What an awesome name!

The Swineculling Sword appeared in his hand.

At first glance, it looked like a lengthened cleaver. The two edges were sharp, and the entire blade was black. Compared to other legendary swords, it was ugly to the extreme.

A few lines appeared before his eyes.

Sword Name: Swineculling Sword

Grade: Iron

Description: Only after culling a million pigs could a Swineculling Sword form. It cuts bones as though it is mud. Beneath its ordinary appearance hides a horrifying power.

…

Formed only after culling a million pigs?

Who had that much time?

Zhou Xuanji was speechless. Shortly after, he put the Swineculling Sword back into the Supreme Storage and began to acquire the Qi Obscuring Incantation.

“How come he took out a cleaver?”

Qiu Baili noticed the Swineculling Sword. He was a little confused but did not ask about it.

He shook his head, turned around, and left.

Ever since Zhou Xuanji obtained the Frost Thunder Crystals, Qiu Baili felt restless. He always felt that something big was going to happen.

Little Jiang Xue moved closer to Zhou Xuanji’s side and realized that his body was filthy and repugnant.

After he broke through to the Foundation Building stage, his spiritual Qi flushed the channels in his body and excreted his impurities through the pores on his skin. It looked as though there was a layer of sweat and dirt covering him.

“So dirty.”

Little Jiang Xue pinched her nose with one hand and fanned the smell away with the other.
