“…6 Xuanwu ancestors ended so fast? How quick!”

When the last person was killed by their combined attacks, Hu Zhongyuan turned his head, looking at Zong Shou in astonishment.

A grade 8 spiritual artifact with a 10th of its power, second soul

illusionary spirit sword, sword path one with the spirit, along with him

rising to the peak of the night wandering realm. At that moment, When

all these merged as one, he managed to instakill a Xuanwu ancestor!

Out of the 6 people that engaged, half of them died in Zong Shou’s hands!

Li Luo and s.h.i.+ Dan’s eyes were filled with shock, looking towards Zong Shou like they were looking like a brand new person.

Only Tan Tao frowned slightly as he looked at the corpses on the

floor, “Looking at the methods of these people, they seem to come from

the demon path. They don’t seem like those with relations with Yunxia

and Blazing Flame Mountain…”

Just as he was about to walk over to observe those corpses, Zong Shou

had caught his breath. The consumption this time had caused a huge loss

of energy. Even Little Gold was devoid of energy. the darkness blooming

cereus that was used up would take several months to get to the level

before.

Just as he was thinking about how he lost a trump card, Zong Shou

shook his head, “There’s no need to look. It’s most probably Demon

Mountain Sect.”

“Demon Mountain Sect?”

Tan Tao exclaimed, before thinking carefully. He didn’t bother much, expressionlessly nodding his head, “So that’s the case!”

Since he could easily instakill the Xuanwu ancestor in one sword,

there weren’t many people in the world that could handle Zong Shou.

When one was above the ascended level, they couldn’t interfere in

Cloud Continent matters. Zong Shou’s ident.i.ty was especially sensitive.

As Long as he arrived in Gantian Mountain, he didn’t even need to fear

the sect leader of the Demon Mountain Sect.

Zong Shou nodded in grat.i.tude towards Li Luo and s.h.i.+ Dan. These 2

people put in the effort. The former stopped 2 same grade Xuanwu

ancestors, and the latter sent his protector beast sword slave to

a.s.sist. Luckily these 2 were here. If not, even with the nine qilin

sword and darkness blooming cereus, he would still die here.

And also, Tan Tao was not bad. No matter if he didn’t pay much

attention or like these Xuan Mountain City people, but in the original

history, a large half of these people died 2 years later because of

“him”.

Looking closely at the items these people were carrying, Zong Shou sighed slightly.

At this moment, he was filthy rich. The items those few people

carried were at most grade 1-2 spiritual energy so he didn’t care much.

He only felt pity that the heaven and earthbags he wanted to buy, he

couldn’t see a trace after waiting in Jiefu City for a few days. Even if

he posted news about purchasing it, but no one was willing to sell.

Just as he was about to move and go down the mountain, s.h.i.+ Dan’s body

flashed and blocked him. Her brows furrowed, “The prince’s sword path

is one with the spirit and your spiritual cultivation is strong. Pretty

much the same as what the elder of my sect said. However, in a large

army war, it is different from the life and death battles of a few

people. Even if you could kill these 3 Xuanwu ancestors, you might not

be able to do anything on the battlefield. At that time Li Luo and I

might not even be able to protect ourselves, much less keep you alive.

That isn’t 4-5 thousand but 400 thousand elites! Your talent is great

and to die here is a huge misfortune…”

The corner of Li Luo’s lips raised ironically. Zong Shou wasn’t

surprised. The elder mentioned by this girl was most probably the old

man from the Sanlu bank. He smiled, not hiding his thoughts, “I know my

limits. When the situation gets bad, Miss s.h.i.+ can run first. You don’t

need to care about me!”

s.h.i.+ Dan was slightly startled. When she reacted, Zong Shou had pa.s.sed

her and walked forwards. He needed to quickly get down the mountain or

else the essence energy absorbed on the nine qilin sword would

dissipate.

Seeing the situation, s.h.i.+ Dan’s brows furrowed. She viciously stared

at Li Luo who didn’t speak as she could only helplessly follow Zong Shou

down.

30 miles away from here, Lei Dong was looking at that stone platform, his eyes not blinking.

There were 2 people beside him. One was Zhao Yanran who sat

cross-legged in a carefree manner. However, the energy she gave out was

very focused and thick. She had managed to stably remain at the martial

ancestor realm. The skin revealed outside of her s.h.i.+rt was

multi-colored, many matters moving and crawling around her skin.

The other person laid paralyzed on the ground, eyes wide open with

rage and helplessness. If Zong Shou was there, he would be able to

recognize that this was Xuanyuan Yiren’s senior Brother Fang Shu.

“My sworn Brother is getting more and more amazing. Grade 8 spiritual

artifact, darkness blooming cereus along with his sword path. There

aren’t many Xuanwu ancestors in Donglin Cloud Continent that can handle

him.”

When Zong Shou and the others disappeared, that stone platform that had been through the intense battle started to collapse.

After Lei Dong looked away, he jealously looked towards Zhao Yanran.

He sighed heavily, “Recently I have been feeling conflicted. With my

brother’s ident.i.ty and character, how would he be able to hide it? My

Uncle is unreasonable, what a bother.”

“Bother? You were too soft and deserved it. With people like him… isn’t it better to just kill him?”

Zhao Yanran coldly swept Fang Shu, causing the latter to feel a chill

down his spine, “Unfortunately, he’s only one with the spirit. If he

could go one more ate and spirit and martial arts merge into one, there

would be no one his match in the same generation.”

When Lei Dong heard that he scoffed, “Spirit and martial arts merge

into one? You suddenly thought about that? How is that easy. Don’t be

greedy!”

Fang Shu rolled his eyes. That Gantian Mountain prince has managed

that ten days ago and managed to defeat Xuanyuan Tong. However, these 2

knew nothing about it. With the huge army on Xuan Mountain, Tiegang

Hal,l also blocking all spiritual connection. It wasn’t surprising.

He subconsciously wanted to say that but just as he was about to open his mouth, his heartfelt wary and he stopped.

He decided that he would rather get beaten to death than open his

mouth. If those 2 found out, he would have no chance of surviving. Much

less still being tortured like now.

Zhao Yanran didn’t notice the change in his expression, mocking

herself and also curiously said, “Then you aren’t going to help in this

battle? A full 400 thousand people with many Xuanwu ancestors. How can

he win? He just shoves his head right in. Is this Zong Shou that

stupid?”

“I also don’t know! What a tough decision.”

Thinking about this matter, Lei Dong was conflicted. He was an

ascended ancestor and if nothing went wrong, in just 2 months he could

step into the grandmaster realm. All the various sects in the cloud

continent all paid attention to him, and it wasn’t easy for him to step

in.

“Looking at him, he does seem like he has some confidence. Let’s just

watch before speaking. Who knows, he might a breakthrough.”

Although that was what he said, in his heart, he had directly

discounted that possibility. Thinking to himself that if he has no

choice, he could only save Zong Shou out from that chaos.

A little later, in a narrow mountain path, a group of silver armored

cavalry was silently proceeding forwards. The middle-aged handsome man

at the lead held onto a red Swift bird. His brows furrowed tight. His

eyes filled with dense worry.

“What is this prince planning? With less than 5 thousand people he dared to try Ruohai Straits?”

…

Half a day later, when the carriages were roughly 30 miles away from

the Ruohai Straits, Zong Shou ordered them to stop and set up camp and

start to rest up.

This area had scouts from Yunxia and Blazing Flame Mountain who sent back the news back to the camp Long ago.

However Xiong Kui and Feng Yu we’re both very experienced and didn’t

send large amounts of troops just waiting quietly. They only increased

their wariness, making a large half of their forces return to the camp

to rest.

Another 2 close to ten thousand groups of cavalries left the camp and

disappeared in the branch routes of Ruohai Straits. If nothing went

wrong, they were going to make a detour and cut off their way back.

Zong Shou didn’t care as he remained in the carriage and meditated

quietly. Within his soul ocean, an immense change was happening. Tens of

true spiritual charms were forming and combining to form a true

spiritual talisman.

However, there was some mysterious power that was obstructing him.

Often, when the talisman was gathered up, it would fall apart. Each time

he failed, the soul ocean would dry up.

That was because the formation of true spiritual talismans conflicted against the laws of heaven and earth.

Moreover, all spirit masters gained comprehension of the true meaning of the talisman from these failures to finally grasp it.

Zong Shou didn’t feel dejected like he didn’t know that time was

flowing, trying time after time. Each time he would have some

improvement. Just as that soul ocean whirlpool was shriveled to a huge

extent there was an explosion. A golden-colored talisman was formed and

hung in the center of the whirlpool, connected with the other 3 true

spiritual talismans.

When this true spiritual talisman was formed, the dry soul ocean

started to boil. It first slowly filled up and then expanded, until it

was roughly 40% bigger did it finally stop.

Zong Shou continued to meditate, stabilizing the realm before stopping. Joy appearing on his face.

Although the battle against the 6 Xuanwu ancestors was easily

resolved, it still managed to ease out some potential. He originally

thought that it would take ten days to form 4 talismans but he managed

it today.

Although the soul ocean whirlpool was 40% larger, his soul power had increased by 3 times. This was a great help to him.

After he woke up, Zong Shou took that purple spear and jumped off the

horse. The yellow energy gathering pearl on the spear was different

from a few days ago, s.h.i.+ning a bright light. After killing 3 Xuanwu

ancestors, Zong Shou injected most of the Essence energy in. The caused

the energy gathering pearl to be filled to the brim.

As Zong Shou chanted, a person jumped out of the carriage.

It was Zong Yuan who had been cultivating diligently. Zong Shou took a look at him and then nodded in satisfaction.

He was xiantian four meridians and was a distance towards five

meridians. By his body hung a purple pearl which was the lightning

element external pill that Zong Shou bought for a high price a few days

ago. The grade wasn’t high and could only provide 5 veins. It was now

successfully merged with Zong Yuan’s energy and became his artifact.

Only now, Zong Yuan’s facial color was shocking. It was dark and

filled with deathly energy. A few days earlier, although his mood was

down, it could barely be considered optimistic. Now he didn’t look like a

person. His eyes were really cold. Like if one got close he would be

frozen by his gaze.

Zong Shou didn’t care much. On rough estimation, even with the

external pill, it could only double Zong Yuan’s strength to around 350

thousand kilograms. However, they had spiritual artifacts and the

effects were not bad too.

Smiling slightly, Zong Shou through over two spiritual armor and a purple spear causally.
