The thick fragrance of meat spread throughout the wilderness. A terrifyingly huge beast leg was being pierced by a steel spear. It was being barbecued on the fire. Occasionally, oil would drip down, giving out sizzling sounds.
Seeing that the pig skin had already turned golden yellow, Zong Shou carefully brushed a layer of sesame oil and added some spices. This made the fragrance of the meat even more tempting.
The wild toothed boar, which weighed four tons, was split into several portions. At least half of it was fed to the horned horses beside it, which were also known as cloud stepping foals. Mixed with soybeans and grass, they were eating happily.
Only three pig legs were left. Apart from one of them being barbecued. Yin Yang and Chu Xue both took one each, eating until their mouths were covered in oil.
The former was slightly more refined, while the latter didn't care about her image at all. It was like she wanted to swallow the bones into her stomach. As she chewed, she looked at Zong Shou with worshipful eyes.
"So fragrant! Gulp! So delicious! Little master's barbecuing skills are much better than before … "
Her voice was muffled. If one didn't pay attention, one wouldn't be able to hear it clearly. Zong Shou couldn't help but smile. Chu Xue was his maidservant. She was born in the tiger cat race, which was a branch of the monster race. Although she looked beautiful, she was a glutton and active person. She looked quiet and elegant, like a lady from a big family. However, she couldn't stay still for even a moment. Especially when she was eating, it would always make one's jaw drop. Although her name was Chu Xue, apart from her skin, which was white as snow, her temperament and personality didn't match her name at all.
The so-called monster race, according to later records, was an ancient race that fought against the savage beasts of the other races. They merged the blood of some strong beasts into their bodies to increase their combat strength.
However, when that tragic era ended, these people were afraid of humans and decided to form their own race, which was the origin of the monster race.
Ten thousand years later, this race was nearly extinct. Zong Shou had only seen them in games.
He casually cut off a piece of roasted meat with the dagger in his hand and ate it slowly. Then, Zong Shou's gaze inadvertently landed on the carriage beside him.
"Uncle Yin, the enemy is still watching us from the sidelines. Isn't it a little inappropriate for us to start a fire and stop here?"
After staying in the carriage for seven days, Zong Shou didn't see Yin Yang and Chu Xue fight with their own eyes. However, the wounds on the sides of the carriage were new. There were also numerous holes which nearly pierced through the iron board of the room. Some places were even stained with blood. It was a ghastly sight. It could be seen that he must have experienced some dangers before coming to this world.
Over the past two days, the two of them would occasionally leave the area, claiming that they were out hunting. However, every time they returned, there would always be a thick stench of blood on their bodies. It was not the blood of beasts, but the blood of humans.
Yin Yang was startled when he heard that. Following which, he didn't care at all, continuing to eat. His voice was dark and cold as he said, "Prince don't worry, the area within 600 miles has been cleared out. However, there are hawks in the sky following us day and night. It doesn't matter if we start a fire or not. Chu Xue and I need some time to rest up … "
Zong Shou raised his head and looked up. As expected, he saw a few small black dots passing through the clouds. His heart instantly sank once more. With these eyes in the sky, the enemy knew where they were like the back of their hand.
Moreover, with how conspicuous this carriage was, it was impossible to hide its tracks.
It seemed like there was a huge enemy nearby, and it was really dangerous.
However, what he cared about more was how Yin Yang called him. Chu Xue called him Young Master, but Yin Yang called him Prince.
Prince, within the Monster Race, he was definitely the heir of the Monster King!
There were hundreds of branches in the Monster Race, and most of them were arrogant and untamed. As the heir of the Monster King, he didn't even have the strength to fight a chicken. One could imagine what kind of outcome he would face.
Sighing, Zong Shou continued to eat the wild boar tooth meat in his hand. When he was about ninety percent full, he felt a warm flow of air moving around in his body.
Zong Shou straightened his body and walked to the side, choosing a more spacious area. He started to move his body, suddenly bending his waist, suddenly bending his body, suddenly stretching out his limbs. It was similar to the weight loss exercises that were popular in the future.
Chu Xue had also finished the pig leg in her hand, but she tore off half of the roasted front leg. While eating, she looked over curiously.
"Training these positions again, it looks so weird. You can't fight with others. Young Master, did you learn this from Linhai College? Those spirit masters only know how to lie. They even said that they don't discriminate in education and accept the world … "
Zong Shou acted like he didn't hear anything. He was really focused, trying his best to complete each movement in the most perfect way possible.
Basic Energy Leading wasn't a legacy from ancient times. It was created by some players in the God Emperor game. The goal was to guide the energy absorbed from the outside world into one's own. Along with internal breathing techniques, it was really beneficial. Especially when cultivating basic cultivation techniques, it could raise the efficiency by at least thirty percent.
Zong Shou was one of the participants and founders. Before he came here, he was already researching the seventh set of movements. Unfortunately, before he could complete it, the Book of Eon Extreme Life was born, causing the battle of the seven emperors of the cloud world.
After that, he inexplicably came to this world.
At this moment, every time Zong Shou completed a movement, there would be a thread of energy that he would forcefully guide into the energy ocean in his lower abdomen.
However, this energy wasn't true internal strength, but the so-called essence energy, gathered from the purest spiritual energy. The energy absorbed from the wild boar tooth meat should have dissipated as time went on. However, at this moment, Zong Shou's Energy Leading Technique was forcefully gathering it into his dantian. It could strengthen the body, turn into internal energy, heal injuries, and pass it to others. It had many uses.
In the last life, the reason why Zong Shou was able to suppress hundreds of millions of players was because of this Energy Leading Technique.
Usually, Zong Shou would train in the carriage, three times a day. Chu Xue had seen it before, but after a short moment, she wasn't interested.
This was the first time Yin Yang saw it. After just one look, a bright glow appeared in his eyes, and he couldn't take his eyes off it.
Until Zong Shou completed the entire set of Energy Leading Technique. Only then did the sharp glow in Yin Yang's eyes retract. He said expressionlessly, "Where did the prince learn this set of movements from? If you train hard, even if you can't become a hero, you can strengthen your body … "
Zong Shou nodded slightly to show that he understood, but a weird expression flashed across his face.
During these seven days, the only thing he knew was that he had studied in the familiar Linhai College for a long time. Only recently did the two of them bring him out.
And then there was Yin Yang. Even with his knowledge and experience, he couldn't see through Yin Yang.
He was calm and steady, and his actions were proper. No matter how he looked at him, he didn't look like a coachman.
After finishing the pork, Yin Yang and Chu Xue both entered a meditative state to adjust their breathing. Their breathing slowly calmed down, like they had fallen asleep.
Zong Shou also sat down cross-legged. He first tried to circulate a basic heart technique. Turning the essence energy in his energy ocean into internal energy. At the start, he didn't feel anything, but when the energy entered his meridians, he felt a piercing pain. Like a hundred thousand needles were stabbing into his body at the same time, causing him to cry out in pain.
Zong Shou instinctively sucked in a cold breath. He didn't want to disturb the two people beside him, so he forcefully bore with the pain. Only after a short while did the pain slightly stop. His front and back were covered in cold sweat.
"As expected! It is because the meridians are connected! "
A look of understanding flashed across his eyes. Zong Shou used his mind to make the threads of warm energy return to his energy ocean. He had temporarily given up on the thought of continuing to cultivate internal energy.
All the races in the cloud world used the nine chakra meridians as their foundations. The nine chakra meridians wrapped around the body.
Just now, when Zong Shou was circulating his energy, he could feel that the essence energy had split up within his meridians.
Within his body, as he had expected, there were two meridians coexisting!
This body was a half-monster, having the blood of both the human race and the fox race. Both of them had a special background, and he had the strengths of both races. His bones and five element spiritual roots were definitely not ordinary.
However, because of this, the two clashed, causing his stamina to be shockingly low. This caused him to be unable to cultivate any internal energy normally.
If it was other people, with such a dual meridian body type, they would have most likely given up on cultivating. However, to him, it wasn't that he had no hope.
Coming to this world, what he was most thankful for was the tens of years of reading in his last life. Through the verification in the virtual world, he had accumulated far more experience than any other martial artist in this era!
Recalling the information from his last life, Zong Shou's brows slowly furrowed tightly.
Either he cultivated a special cultivation method that was suitable for dual meridians. In Zong Shou's memory, there were many types. Moreover, they all said that Power was extraordinary, at least above the pinnacle, but they weren't suitable.
Next, it was to obtain a few heavenly treasures. To strengthen one of his bloodlines and suppress the other, to change his body type and merge the two meridians into one.
However, these heavenly treasures were even rarer. Zong Shou didn't even think about it.
"Serves me right! Blazing Cold Flame Technique, Great Reverse Luo God Technique, Sun and Moon Brilliant Wheel. When I snatched them, why didn't I take a close look? Although they are a little trash … "
Just as he was feeling frustrated, a light flashed in his mind, and another paragraph of words flashed across his mind.
"The path of the heavens is to take away what is surplus and make up for what is lacking. The path of man is to sacrifice what's not enough and give what's not enough … "
Zong Shou was startled. In the next moment, like he had seen a snake, he hurriedly chased these memories out of his mind, burying them deep in his memory.
These words came from an ancient martial art secret that he had obtained by chance in his early years. It was called Vitality Devouring. It had once caused endless waves in the Cloud World, causing numerous blood storms. Its name spread far and wide and was seen as a taboo by people.
If this technique was used, it could solve the problem of his bloodline conflict and even allow his cultivation to explode. However, unless he had no choice and was facing death, he wasn't willing to touch this method. Especially with his dual meridian body, it would cause more problems. At this moment, he was still hesitating.
Sighing bitterly, Zong Shou spread all the essence energy that he had gathered into his limbs and bones to strengthen his body.
Especially his hands, causing his muscles to become firmer and his bones and tendons to become tougher.
Following which, he chopped down a piece of common iron wood from the forest not far away. Using the fine steel treasure sword in his hand, he carved it into half a foot long wooden flying knives.
