Vol.2-Chapter 220 – Sword is Named “Cold Underworld”

The six of them quickly flew away from the Alert Spirit Peak and headed toward Zhao Jiuge’s Nine Song Peak.

This was only Zhao Jiuge’s second time coming to his own Nine Song Peak. He didn’t know what his third senior brother had done with the layout. Thinking about how desolate it looked before, Zhao Jiuge felt embarrassed to take his friends there.

After all, aside from Zhang Sai and Cai Mengxuan, the other three all had their own peaks.

Soon, Zhao Jiuge realized that his worry was for naught. When the six of them arrived, they found that a wooden cabin similar to Fu Hongling’s cabin had been built. There was also a large amount of spirit grass and bamboo planted. As for spirit beasts and spirit herbs, Zhao Jiuge would have to obtain those himself.

Although it was lacking, Zhao Jiuge was satisfied. Compared to how desolate it looked at the start, it was much better now.

Among the five of them, three were still fine. Only Zhang Sai and Cai Mengxuan looked around at the surrounding scenery with envy. They were not direct disciples, so they naturally didn’t have their own peaks.

The six of them casually found a place filled with spirit grass and sat down.

After sitting down, Jiulian would intentionally or unintentionally look toward Zhao Jiuge. The observant Luo Xie noticed this and was even more certain of his thoughts.

The Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect didn’t prohibit disciples from finding dao partners. Having a strong partner to face dangers with and support each other was very normal. This was why cultivators didn’t choose partners like mortals. Rather than paying attention to appearances, they valued strength and a person’s potential.

“Jiuge, with your strength, you should be heading out to experience the world in less than two years. How about we go together? I’m about to head out soon, and if we go together, we can support each other.”

Not long after they sat down, Jiulian finally said what she wanted to say. Her words clearly expressed her intent. She looked at Zhao Jiuge with a burning gaze and there was a look of expectation in her eyes.

Zhao Jiuge was shocked. He didn’t expect Senior Sister Jiulian to be so direct. He certainly could not accept her proposal, as he already had a few figures in his heart and couldn’t handle more. He didn’t want to reject Jiulain, but he couldn’t be too direct either. Senior Sister Jiulian was also from the Mysterious Heaven Peak and was the direct disciple of Elder Sky Sea, whose status was not low either. He also wanted to make friends, so he could not offend her like this.

Zhao Jiuge remained calm on the surface, but many thoughts flowed through his head. He revealed a look of embarrassment and looked at Jiulian’s nervous expression. He smiled and said with some difficulty, “This… Senior Sister Jiulian, you know who my teacher is. He is very demanding of me, and when the time comes, my requirements might be different from yours. I fear that we won’t be able to travel together.”

“Oh, it\'s alright. The future is still far.” Jiulian obviously looked disappointed but found truth in Zhao Jiuge’s words. The Head Teacher’s disciples would naturally be taught a bit differently.

Zhao Jiuge let out a sigh of relief after dodging this topic. However, those final words caused his heart to skip a beat. It looked like Senior Sister Jiulian was a persistent person.

On the side, Luo Xie could not help but smile. How could he not see through Zhao Jiuge’s intentions? He had known Zhao Jiuge for a few years, so when he saw Zhao Jiuge’s depressed gaze and Jiulian’s persistence, he almost laughed out loud. It seemed like Jiulian was moved after seeing Zhao Jiuge’s strength.

Zhang Sai and Cai Mengxuan didn’t interject much. After all, their strength and identities were lower. Only Leng Rufeng frowned slightly. He originally wanted to ask Zhao Jiuge to go out with him and Luo Xie. However, he didn’t expect Jiulian to ask before him. Since Zhao Jiuge had answered like that, he had to give up as well.

The atmosphere that followed was more pleasant and relaxed. Zhao Jiuge and Jiulian talked about their various encounters. Even Zhang Sai and Cai Mengxuan were able to occasionally interject a few words.

Soon, the sky was about to darken. Leng Rufeng and Luo Xie were anxious to get back to cultivating. Seeing that Zhao Jiuge had already condensed his spirit core, they were stimulated.

Zhang Sai and Cai Mengxuan also said their goodbyes. They still lived in a similar courtyard as before, two people sharing a house.

Only Jiulian felt reluctant to leave, but the sky was dark, and it was inconvenient for her to stay overnight. Not to mention she had just met Zhao Jiuge. No matter how anxious she was, she couldn’t rush things.

As a result, she decided to set a time to meet Zhao Jiuge again. Only after getting Zhao Jiuge’s confirmation did she leave with a happy smile.

In the blink of an eye, the previously lively Nine Song Peak became empty, leaving only Zhao Jiuge here. He looked at Senior Sister Jiulian leave and revealed a bitter smile. He sighed in his heart.?“There is another troublesome matter.”

Zhao Jiuge turned back to the humble cabin and decided to forget about these trifling matters. He decided to cultivate in peace.

After battling Zhou Hongyong, he had exhausted all his spirit force. However, at the same time, Zhao Jiuge felt like his spirit force was increasing, so he quickly began to cultivate to recover it.

While absorbing spirit force, he thought about his experiences during the fight. This gave him great inspiration, and at the same time, he realized that his strength was insufficient. Although he had reached the Spirit Core Realm, none of his other abilities had improved much. That was why when he faced other Spirit Core Realm opponents, he would have difficulties.

However, the gains he had made from the bet made Zhao Jiuge very happy. He now had more than 10,000 spirit stones and more than 8,000 sect contributions. This was a large amount of resources.

Zhao Jiuge secretly thought to himself that aside from increasing his cultivation, the only way to increase his strength was to gain a deeper understanding of the sword art, condense his fourth golden dragon, or cultivate the Sanskrit Divine Body.

However, comprehending sword art was not something that could be done in a few days, and cultivating the Sanskrit Divine Body was even more difficult. He had only managed to cultivate his right hand and had not been able to make more progress. He would need a large amount of heavenly treasures to continue, and this wasn’t something he could do in a short period of time.

Right now, he could only focus on condensing the fourth golden dragon. From his past experiences, the third golden dragon had cost him four to five thousand spirit stones. Although he had 10,000 spirit stones on hand, he was afraid it wasn’t enough. Since he had 8,000 sect contributions, he thought about it for a while and decided to go buy more.

As soon as dawn arrived, Zhao Jiuge opened his eyes. After cultivating for the whole night, all his spirit force had recovered and had even increased a little. The egg-sized spirit core had changed in a subtle way.

Then Zhao Jiuge immediately flew toward the Treasure Pavilion to exchange sect contributions for spirit stones. When he learned that one sect contribution could only be exchanged for one spirit stone, he was stunned and then he felt his heart ache. He clenched his teeth and bought 5,000 spirit stones. He left without any hesitation without looking at anything else and returned to Nine Song Peak.

Thinking about it, if he hadn’t won against Zhou Hongyong, he wouldn\'t even have enough to cultivate his fourth golden dragon. Now he finally understood the importance of resources and why geniuses could only appear at the Holy Lands. Small sects lacked spirit stones and treasures to supply their disciples. The fewer disciples they had, the fewer geniuses they would have.

He was weak before, so he didn’t feel the demand for these things. He had just reached the Spirit Core Realm, but he already needed all these expensive things. It was difficult to imagine how much resources he would need once his cultivation increased.

He returned to the cabin and took out the 15,000 spirit stones. The entire cabin was covered in the dazzling light from the spirit stones.

Zhao Jiuge’s dark eyes stared at this large amount of spirit stones, and his eyes burned with passion and expectation. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes. He no longer hesitated and was ready to condense his fourth golden dragon, hoping that he would be able to succeed quickly.

Days passed like this. As time passed, the amount of spirit stones before Zhao Jiuge decreased. His originally calm face had now changed to a frown.

From the look of the situation, he hadn’t succeeded in condensing the fourth dragon. Occasionally, a furious aura would erupt from the room but would soon dissipate.

Zhao Jiuge was covered in a bright, golden light, but he still hadn’t managed to condense the fourth golden dragon.

After one month, a gentle woman in red arrived on Nine Song Peak. She sensed the situation inside the cabin and didn’t disturb Zhao Jiuge. Instead, she waited outside. This beautiful woman was Fu Hongling.

After another seven days, there were less than 3,000 spirit stones before Zhao Jiuge. His frown had deepened greatly.

A ferocious aura suddenly erupted from the cabin, but it didn’t last long before it dissipated. However, Zhao Jiuge didn’t continue and stopped cultivating.

Seeing this situation, Fu Hongling immediately entered the cabin and saw Zhao Jiuge with a silly smile on his face. As for whether he succeeded or not, only Zhao Jiuge himself would know.

“Ah, Senior Sister! Why are you here?”

Zhao Jiuge had just finished cultivating and was shocked by Fu Hongling’s appearance.

“I\'ve been here for a few days. I naturally have a reason to come and find you.” Fu Hongling’s voice was still as calm as always. However, there was a hint of joy in her eyes that only appeared when she saw her little junior brother.

Zhao Jiuge raised his eyebrows and the smile on his face became a bit stiff. “What’s the matter?”

Many thoughts flashed through his mind and he thought about what had happened with Master Moon one month ago. Could it be related to that or some other bad news?

“Picking up the sword.”

Fu Hongling was still a person of few words. She had gotten used to it after cultivating like this for so many years and still couldn’t change herself so easily.

The moment Zhao Jiuge heard this, he remembered that Ou Yezi was refining his life flying sword, and it looked like it was complete.

Feeling Zhao Jiuge’s smile and excitement, Fu Hongling smiled. “Let’s go, the sword is finished. I have already seen it. We are just waiting for you to drop your blood so you can be recognized as the owner.

Zhao Jiuge happily got off the bed and cheerfully replied, “Okay, let’s go.”

“That’s right, I have already picked the name of the sword for you.

Zhao Jiuge curiously asked, “What’s it called?”

“The sword is named Cold Underworld.” After Fu Hongling spoke, she gently brushed aside her hair.
