Peerless War God

"I wonder what's going on?" Chen Xiao could not help but ask.    

"It's something that will benefit your cultivation greatly. In short, you will know when you get there. Not everyone has such an opportunity, hehe."    

The Duke of Zi Jin laughed and flew in a certain direction. When Chen Xiao saw him, he immediately followed.    

He raised his head and looked carefully, only to find that the Marquis Zi Jin was heading towards the Divine Sword Peak, the residence of the Heavenly Star Sword Sovereign.    

Why did the Duke of Purple Gold want to take him to the residence of the Heavenly Star Sword Sovereign?    

Suddenly, Chen Xiao's heart trembled as he asked, "Lord Marquis Zi, could it be that the Sword Sovereign has broken through? This..."    

The Marquis Zi Jin smiled, nodded his head, and said: "Yes."    

Although it was just a simple word, it gave Chen Xiao a huge shock and even caused him to be dumbstruck.    

He was already very familiar with the Heavenly Star Sword Sovereign, and the Heavenly Star Sword Sovereign was the master of Qin Daoyuan and Senior Martial Brother Lie Xin. The Heavenly Star Sword Sovereign had helped him a lot and could be considered a good teacher and friend.    

Furthermore, the Heavenly Star Sword Sovereign's strength had reached the peak for a long time and was only one step away from the Dao of Longevity.    

If there was another breakthrough, it would be the Immortal Life Realm.    

Chen Xiao could not help but feel excited in his heart. To be able to observe a powerful cultivator comprehending the Dao of Immortality at such a close distance was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.    

After a moment, the Marquis said, "We're here. Follow me in."    

The two had already arrived in front of the Divine Sword Peak, and the disciples of the Divine Sword Peak sensed Lord Purple Gold's aura and came to greet him.    

The big senior martial brother in gray, Qin Daoyuan, and Lie Xin were the most eye-catching ones.    

Today was also very unusual for them.    

"Greetings, Lord Zi."    

"Greetings, Lord Zi."    

"Greetings, Lord Zi."    

Greetings, Lord Zi." The Duke of Purple Gold waved his hand and said, There's no need for formalities."    

"Yes."    

Everyone let out a breath. The pressure that Duke of Zi Jin gave them was too terrifying.    

After exchanging glances with the three of them, Chen Xiao continued to follow behind the Marquis without saying a word.    

As they kept walking forward, they soon arrived at the top of the Holy Sword Peak. The mountain was as high as a sharp sword, standing straight on the ground. The dense sword qi and the buzzing sound kept everything away.    

At the moment, although they were still far away from the God Sword Mountain, they couldn't get close to it anymore. The sharp sword seemed to be able to cut people into pieces. If they got any closer, they would be frightened by the sword qi. It was extremely horrible.    

Even the Duke of Purple Gold himself didn't want to get close to it.    

Firstly, the sword qi cultivated by the Sky Star Sword Saint was indeed terrifying, and it wasn't easy to get close.    

Secondly, if they tried to get too close to the sword aura, it would affect the Heavenly Star Sword Sovereign, which was something they didn't want to see.    

"Let's stop here," the Duke of Purple Gold said.    

Seeing this, the big brother in gray and company let out a breath. They were scared that the Duke of Purple Gold would force his way in, and that would be bad.    

"How long has your master been in this state?" the Duke of Purple Gold asked.    

The gray-clothed senior martial brother thought for a moment before replying, "Around three years."    

Seeing this, Qin Daoyuan became anxious. His face was full of worry as he hurriedly said, "Lord Zihou, Master should be fine, right? In these three years, we haven't been able to even get a bit closer to the Divine Sword Peak. There shouldn't be any problems, right?"    

He wasn't the only one; Lie Xin and company were also worried.    

The Duke of Purple Gold had a relaxed expression as he said, "No worries, you don't need to worry too much. The Sky Star Sword Saint should be about to make a breakthrough soon. This is a good thing. Watch carefully. Don't miss out on such a great opportunity. It will be very beneficial for you in the future."    

"Yes."    

"Yes, so that's how it is. With Lord Marquis Zi's words, we can relax."    

Hearing that, Lie Xin and company let out a breath, and their gazes toward the Divine Sword Peak changed.    

It was the Immortality Stage, the dream of countless cultivators. The Sky Star Sword Saint had been stuck at this stage for thousands of years. Now that he was finally going to break through, as his disciples, they were all excited.    

"May I ask Lord Zihou how long it will take for my master to break through?" the big senior brother in gray asked.    

The Duke of Purple Gold revealed a contemplative expression and said after thinking for a while, "I don't know. Three to five months, three to five years, or even longer."    

"So that's how it is. This..." The gray-clothed senior martial brother started to think and became silent.    

"Okay, there's no need to be impatient. Just keep waiting," the Duke of Purple Gold said.    

"Yes," Lie Xin and company smiled bitterly and replied.    

Although they weren't sure right now, they knew what to do. That was good.    

The Duke of Zi Jin looked around and found a big tree. He directly took out two futons and sat on the ground. He invited Chen Xiao and said, "Come, sit."    

"This... Yes, thank you, Lord Duke of Zi." Chen Xiao hesitated for a moment, but he still braced himself and sat down.    

He could tell that the Marquis Zi Jin only took out two futons, which happened to be one for each of them. He didn't have the right to stand at the side and wait for Lie Xin and the others.    

From this, it could be seen that Chen Xiao's position in the Marquis's heart was completely different.    

At least, in a sense, he could be on equal footing with the Marquis Zi Jin. This was something that he did not dare to think about in the past.    

And this was because Chen Xiao had the Soul Seizing Sword, this Mysterious Divine Spirit Treasure, and had the chance to step onto the path of immortality. Just this point alone was better than countless other cultivators.    

He had already walked far ahead of Qin Daoyuan and the others.    

Qin Daoyuan and the others looked at each other with bitter smiles on their faces. They could only stay silent at the side.    

"You guys can do whatever you want." The Duke of Zi Jin said with a faint smile.    

"Yes."    

Qin Daoyuan and company immediately agreed. Although they were the most outstanding disciples of the Sky Star Sword Sovereign, they didn't dare to put on any airs in front of the Duke of Purple Gold.    

The three of them all sat down and carefully sat behind him. They didn't even dare to breathe loudly. They just silently stared at the direction of the Divine Sword Peak and prayed in their hearts.    

Their hope was none other than the Sky Star Sword Saint.    

At this time, Chen Xiao opened his mouth and asked, "Won't we affect the Sword Sovereign if we stay here?"    

"It doesn't matter. Just watch carefully. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Feel the profoundness within. Remember, you have to use your soul to sense it and not your eyes. Do you understand?" The Duke of Purple Gold said.    

"Yes."    

Although they didn't understand, they didn't wait for them to understand the meaning behind the Duke's words.    

After being reminded by him, Chen Xiao seemed to have felt a different feeling. The Divine Sword Peak in front of him seemed to have turned into a bright lamp, becoming more and more dazzling under the gaze of his soul.
