When Zong Shou entered the forest, Zong Yuan and Chu Xue had already followed.
The former had stepped into the martial ancestor realm a few days ago. He barely stepped on the time limit set by Zong Shou and avoided the danger of becoming a naked corpse. At this moment, Chu Xue had also successfully merged with that metal element earth vein. Her internal energy might be much weaker than Zong Shou, but her aura was much longer than Zong Shou's. They were able to catch up with him easily.
On the contrary, although Hu Zhongyuan had merged with a new spiritual vein, he had to take care of the heavily injured Ruoshui and couldn't follow.
Chu Xue followed behind Zong Shou, her expression a little confused, "Young master, didn't you already find an earth vein? Even that rising moon lion, no, that's not right! It's Little Zhi and Little Gold. Didn't they successfully merge? Why do we still need to go there? "
Speaking of the names of these few protector beasts, Chu Xue couldn't help but be speechless. She strongly doubted her young master's taste. Even kids didn't have such names. It was so uncouth.
Zong Yuan's eyes flashed and knew that Zong Shou's martial path had already broken through to the xiantian realm. Half a month ago, Zong Shou carried Ruoshui back.
However, compared to his spiritual cultivation that had already entered the night wandering realm, although it was shocking, it was still acceptable.
With this prince's martial path cultivation that could be compared to Hu Qianqiu, it was just a matter of time before he broke through to the xiantian realm.
… However, he was only fourteen years old xiantian. If he was placed in the eyes of others, it was enough to make numerous martial cultivators feel ashamed.
Even within the Zong family, his cultivation talent was only a little lower than Zong Shi. When he broke through to the xiantian realm, he was already twenty years old!
On the other side, Zong Shou acted like he didn't hear what Chu Xue said. In the depths of his eyes, one could see a little bit of anxiousness.
Over the past ten days, he had easily found all the spirit veins that Chu Xue and Hu Zhongyuan needed. After a few days, Zong Yuan also obtained the fourth earth vein that he needed.
However, he was the only one who hadn't made much progress. Earth veins of water and fire that contained all five elements were easy to find. In this era, the spirit tide was not far away and the spirit veins were beginning to become abundant. However, in addition to water and fire, there was also a lightning-type Origin Spirit. That was a bit tricky.
After casting the spell twenty times in a row, he had only found one water vein. The beast crystals and mind stones beside him were all used up. This last time, it was Hu Zhongyuan and the others who went around hunting beasts before they barely managed to gather all of them.
If he succeeded, that would be for the best. However, if he failed, he would have to wait for ten days or so before he could go to a large city with a branch of the Sanlu Bank and retrieve some spirit stones.
His heart was clear, he wasn't happy with external gains, he wasn't sad, he was really open-minded. He wouldn't be worried about his own cultivation progress, he was just worried about Xuanyuan Yiren.
The five month period was almost up and he was still stuck at the initial Xiantian Realm. How could he not be worried? He couldn't let that girl wait for too long for him.
At this moment, he didn't have any other thoughts, he just wanted to quickly merge with the spiritual veins and gather some capital. Then, he would rush to Xuan Mountain City to meet his future father-in-law.
"As they say, lightning and fire are born together! It has all five elements, within fire there is lightning. Although this type of earth vein wasn't common, it wasn't rare either. Although the Water Fairy Lake was bitterly cold, it was still extremely cold. Although this water lake is cold, within four thousand miles there are several volcanoes and they don't lack fire. Why can't I find it? If I really have no choice, I can only try that place. If I can't, I can only delay for a few more days. After I get the beast crystals, I will find another place to search … "
It was still that mountain peak. Zong Yuan, Chu Xue, and that rising moon lion weren't standing within the formation. Instead, they each took a corner to protect him. There was also that grade 5 demon eye silver bear that Zong Shou had unsealed. It was standing in the middle of the formation, giving off a threatening aura.
When Zong Shou used the Three Mysterious Spirit Reflecting Technique, he started to lean towards the north of this small mountain range.
In terms of geography, that place was the dragon head position of the entire mountain range. Normally speaking, it was where the spiritual veins gathered the most, tens to hundreds of times larger than other places.
In the past, the reason why Zong Shou purposely avoided it was because of the bunch of white apes here. They were all grade 4 beasts, 20 of which were grade 5. An ape king had indiscernible strength. Moreover, it was extremely smart, similar to an eight year old human child.
This was why unless he had no choice, he wasn't willing to offend this bunch of beasts.
That five-colored light appeared once more, one could see many ripples. After using this technique 20 times, Zong Shou was already used to it.
He originally made up his mind that if he couldn't find it this time, he would immediately leave. However, in just a moment, his brows furrowed and a look of joy appeared on his face.
Countless spirit veins appeared on the five-colored light screen. One of them was red with a hint of purple. It was a fire element spirit vein that he had been looking for for a long time. It contained all five elements and also had a spirit of lightning.
"What luck! It is actually a high grade. Only this place is a little problematic. Unfortunately, Ruoshui can't move. "
If he could have the help of this 7 meridian Xuanwu ancestor, no matter how strong those white apes were, it would be as simple as cutting vegetables.
A martial ancestor with 6 meridians of the earth chakra level had roughly nine hundred thousand kilograms of strength. However, once it reached 7 meridians, the Xuanwu ancestor realm, it would explode, a full three million kilograms! It was three times that of before.
Don't look at how weak Ruoshui looked now. Actually, as long as she used some strength and pinched slightly, Zong Shou would most probably die.
Looking around, Zong Shou shook his head. Out of these 2 people and 1 beast, only Zong Yuan could help. As for Chu Xue and Little Zhi, they would be a burden if he brought them along.
Zong Shou had a slight thought and released his soul from his body. That demon eye silver bear, which had turned back into soul smoke, also rose into the air. He turned into a lightning phoenix and flew towards the north.
Not long later, he had arrived at the north end of the mountain range. This place was a short mountain peak. However, it was really steep. On both sides were tall cliffs. Hundreds of white apes were spread out all over the mountains.
Zong Shou was worried. Of all places to hide this spiritual vein, why did it have to be hidden in a mountain cave filled with white apes? However, it was fixed there and didn't move.
This place was obviously the nest of the ape group. The white apes that came in and out of this place were obviously more muscular. Their auras were strong and their eyes were shining brightly.
Looking around, Zong Shou shook his head and totally lost all hope. There were no blind spots, there was no way to avoid this bunch of beasts.
Just as he was about to give up, his heart suddenly moved as he thought about something. The lightning wings flapped and Zong Shou's soul flew up once more. However, this time he directly flew towards the lakeside where the few of them were living. Wrapping up the few wine bottles within the carriage.
"This wretched girl, she actually drank more than four bottles of wine in secret. No wonder her body training improvement far exceeded my expectations. Why didn't I notice before that Xue actually liked this! "
Flying close to the short mountain, Zong Shou first separated and hid the 6 bottles of celestial wine that were lucky enough to survive. He placed them hundreds of miles away where some beasts found it hard to climb. They were either hidden in small caves or on ten thousand feet high cliffs, all of the bottle caps were broken.
Following which he returned to wait near the short mountain. As expected, in just a short moment. Those white apes started to get restless, swarming outwards. Even in the cave on the left high cliff, there were tens of white apes that all ran out. One of them was the biggest. There were even golden patterns on its chest.
Zong Shou smiled when he saw the situation, feeling a little regretful.
"I haven't even tasted a single mouthful of those celestial wines, but those beasts got lucky. Who knows how skilled that Miss Zhenru that Lei Dong thought about so much is. What a waste … "
A talisman shot out from the depths of his soul. On the flat ground, a light wind instantly blew into the cave.
Zong Shou waited silently, confirming that there wasn't anything that could be considered a huge enemy within. He didn't delay any longer and flew in.
The moment he entered, there were 3 slightly old white apes that all got up. First, their eyes were filled with wariness. Following which, when they saw the yin mist, they charged around the cave without any worry. They didn't hesitate at all, roaring out as they charged over.
Zong Shou didn't care at all, the Lightning Tooth Sword piercing out from his soul, drawing several exquisite arcs in the air, killing these 3 grade-4 white apes on the spot.
"Looking at that ape king, it is about to advance and most probably mutated. This beast is obviously intelligent and is attracted by the celestial wine. It can actually arrange subordinates to defend this cave. It seems like I need to be quick … "
His soul floated and found the location of the earth vein. Right away, Zong Shou took out the Spirit Absorbing Pagoda and started to absorb it.
During these 20 days, who knows what he learned from the Three Mysterious Spirit Reflecting Technique. He was even more familiar with this Spiritual Vein Absorbing Technique.
At this moment, he went all out to activate the spell, not bothering about his soul power. In just a moment, the earth vein was absorbed into the pagoda to suppress.
Zong Shoxin was instantly delighted. He knew that his initial earth chakra meridian cultivation was already half completed. Once he merged with the spiritual vein, the source spirit within would continuously provide spiritual energy. His energy meridians would be able to last longer and his strength would greatly increase.
At this moment, those white apes still didn't show any signs of rushing back. Zong Shou had a thought as he looked deep into the cave.
"… Wherever beasts gather, there will be many spiritual items. Although these white apes are pack beasts, they might have some good stuff … "
Zong Shou used his spiritual sense to sense the area. Those apes were still tens of miles away, like headless flies, searching all around. He didn't worry anymore as he flew deeper into the cave.
In just a moment, his eyes were wide. Who knows if the deepest part of the cave was naturally like this or if it was opened up by these white apes. It was extremely wide, thousands of feet to the north and south. However, it was really messy within, there were fruit cores and beast bones everywhere.
Even Zong Shou, with his soul body, could sense the pungent smell here. However, when he swept around, he laughed to himself. His eyes focused on the east corner of the stone hall. (To be continued.
