After sitting cross-legged, Zong Shou didn't bother about his monster body anymore. He picked up the emperor flame spiritual art that he had given up on and started to study it.
Numerous thoughts flashed across his mind. Lines of incantations and diagrams appeared in his mind.
Actually, a few days ago it was the same. He was filled with inspiration, but he was unable to find a breakthrough point. He merged this fire element cultivation method into his world shocking spiritual art.
When he started to deduce once more, it was the same situation. Like there was a layer that he was unable to break through.
He closed his eyes and thought for a full 8 minutes, but he still had no idea. In the end, Zong Shou could only helplessly stop. It seemed like he was unable to enter a state of comprehension like Xiong Kui.
It seemed like the luck brought by the luck talisman wasn't that useful.
Luckily, he didn't have much hope in his heart. Naturally, he didn't feel any regret. As a matter of fact, he was already gratified that nothing bad had happened during this short period of time he had been meditating.
When he opened his eyes, he saw that Chu Xue was cleaning up the messy carriage. She took a cloth and tried to wipe off the spiritual ink juice that had fallen onto the carpet.
Her upper body was low, her butt was high, her shirt tightly wrapped around her, showing off the perfect shape of her butt. Maybe because recently Chu Xue's body was quickly growing taller, her dress was a little tight. Even the gully at her lower body was pretty much fully revealed.
Zong Shou's eyes lit up as he swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He viciously stared at it, carefully memorizing the shape. Then, he acted like a gentleman and turned his head away.
Just as he was thinking that this little lass was simply bewitching, he suddenly felt a surge of energy within his body. That fire and water spiral true energy started to riot once more.
Luckily, this time Zong Shou was prepared and went all out to suppress it right away. Sitting on the bed, with Ruoshui protecting him, nothing unexpected happened.
Just as the true qi in his body was calmed down by him. Zong Shou suddenly had a flash of inspiration, as his eyes emitted a brilliant glow.
Then, his pupils gradually lost their focus and his gaze flickered. In his mind, he was frantically calculating. All the techniques related to water, fire, and lightning that were buried in his memories were extracted one after another. It filled the gaps in the World Shocking Spirit Art and the Imperial Flame Spirit Art. Spiritual energy was also surging around his body. In particular, the water and fire spirits were the most active. One could faintly see purple lightning flashing in the surroundings.
After a short while, Zong Shou's face lit up with joy. He had actually made a breakthrough. This momentary epiphany was enough to save him several months of comprehension.
The second and third levels of the Earth Wheel level of the World-Shocking Spiritual Art were rapidly being perfected. Not only was he full of vigor, but his thoughts were also terrifyingly clear. It was as if a search engine had been installed in the tens of thousands of martial arts manuals that he had memorized in the past. The essence of the words and martial arts techniques were all easily grasped without any effort at all.
At this rate, he might only need a day's time to perfect more than half of the Earth Chakra cultivation method.
He was filled with joy in his heart, but he forcefully suppressed it, using his calmest state to deduce these two cultivation methods. Just as he was about to reach the fourth level, Zong Shou's right eyelid twitched once more, as he had a really bad premonition.
In the next moment, he felt the entire carriage beneath his feet suddenly stop with a loud rumble. It was as if it had collided with something, causing the entire carriage to fly up.
What made Zong Shou speechless was that the tables and paperweights that had just been placed in front of him were all sent flying by a huge force. Without exception, they all smashed towards the direction where Zong Shou was sitting.
At this moment, Zong Shou wanted to cry but no tears came out. Once wasn't enough, why was it happening again? Was this really retribution?
As expected, the true qi in his body went berserk once more, and he was unable to move. In the next moment, Ruoshui acted. A thin and long soft sword instantly appeared in front of him, forming a heavy sword veil. Everything in front of him was cut into pieces.
However, at this moment, not only was Zong Shou unable to calm down, but that bad feeling was getting thicker and thicker.
This time it took even longer, a full half a cup of tea's time before the carriage totally stopped. He originally thought that they were attacked, but after it calmed down, he realized that the spiritual formation within the carriage had temporarily gone out of control. It took a long time before it was repaired.
At this moment, Zong Shou was totally powerless as he laid on the soft couch. His body had a few more red and swollen areas, and the clothes on his body were all tattered. He looked really tragic. If one looked carefully, one could notice that there were tens of shallow sword wounds on his chest and abdomen. Although the wounds were shallow, one or two of them could cause heavy injuries if one wasn't careful.
This time, the one whose face was filled with shame was Ruoshui. She knelt at the side, looking at Zong Shou with an innocent and apologetic gaze. However, her eyes were filled with uncontrollable laughter. Chu Xue on the side couldn't help but giggle.
Zong Shoxin was furious. If it wasn't for him being exhausted, he would have grabbed the two of them and viciously smacked their butts.
However, when his body slightly recovered some energy, he sat up straight. The moment he sat up again, a ball of spiral energy came out from his palm.
It was still fire and water spinning, but it was more balanced. And those purple lightning bolts were like a bridge, tightly connecting them.
Zong Shou couldn't help but smile. This time he didn't just deduce the second and third layer of the earth chakra cultivation method. He also perfected the front portion.
The same amount of true qi, but Power was obviously 20% stronger! If nothing went wrong, he just needed a few more months to try to merge with two more spiritual veins and enter the second meridian realm. Even the third meridian would be within 3-4 months.
This time, although he was in a bad state, his face swollen and bruised. However, his gains were not bad, and it should be worth it.
If he could have such comprehension every time, he wouldn't mind doing it a few more times.
The only thing that wasn't good was that along with the world shocking spiritual art and the emperor flame spiritual art being perfected. At the same time, his fire-attributed bloodline started to show signs of awakening again, making him feel uneasy.
Zong Shou smiled in satisfaction, shattering the ball of energy in his hand. He estimated that the time was up and that the luck talisman had lost its effect. He stood up and looked out of the window. Only to see that Xiong Kui was covered in wounds, in an even worse state than him. Only then did he smile in satisfaction. He was slightly happy. Although he was unlucky, there were people who were even more unlucky than him.
However, when the horse under Xiong Kui lost its footing once more and fell to the ground. Zong Shou was startled, not gloating at all.
"… something isn't right! My spiral energy is still okay, that world shocking spiritual art has many flaws and is originally really unstable. However, what Xiong Kui trained in is the emperor flame spiritual art, the legacy cultivation method left by the ancient monster emperor. It was created by a martial saint level expert, so how could it lose control so easily? "
Actually, be it the table, chair or the soft sword that Ruoshui retracted in time, under normal circumstances, they wouldn't be able to hurt him. Just the energy on the surface of his body would be able to block it. At this moment, he was cultivating external cultivation. Under spiritual weapons, they wouldn't be able to pierce through his skin.
However, just now, not only did the true qi in his body go out of control, even the energy flowing on the surface of his body was in a mess, causing his skin to be in its weakest state.
It was true that when a person was unlucky, even a toothpick could be fatal.
Xiong Kui's situation was similar. However, a luck talisman could only cause him to be unlucky once or twice. His situation was far worse than his.
He remembered that day when he was drawing that luck talisman on Pill Spirit Mountain, he comprehended something.
"Fortune and misfortune depend on each other, fortune and misfortune hide within. Who knows the extreme? There is no righteousness. Righteousness becomes a wonder, kindness becomes a demon. The mysteries of a person will last for a long time! "
"Knowing the male and guarding the female is the stream of the world. Knowing the glory and guarding the humiliation is the valley of the world. Knowing the white and guarding the black is the style of the world!"
"Fortune and misfortune have no door, but people summon themselves. Good and evil will follow like a shadow!"
"… The root of misfortune lies in the evil of the body, the evil of the mind. The root of fortune lies in cultivating virtue and doing good deeds."
However, looking at it today, he was probably just a beginner at that time. This weird and indiscernible god talisman definitely wasn't so simple.
Before this, he felt that he had missed out on something. However, he couldn't figure out what it was.
"So that's the case! It is probability. The luck word that I wrote can magnify all possibilities! "
Waves of excitement flowed in Zong Shou's chest like a flame current, causing his heart to burn up. His eyes were filled with surprise after he understood.
On the surface, Chu Xue kept on falling down in Xiaoyuan Town and also picking up money. It was a combination of misfortune and fortune.
In truth, that wasn't the case. It was just that the luck word magnified the probability of everything. It seemed like there was both good and bad luck.
Actually, although there was some relationship between the two, it wasn't like what he had imagined before, where misfortune and fortune were closely interdependent.
As for this luck word talisman, apart from probability, it could also cause one's luck to fluctuate in a short period of time.
Just as he was thinking about that, he suddenly felt an explosion within his soul ocean.
The luck word talisman that was spinning outside of the whirlpool actually gave out an unlimited amount of light.
The bright glow and mist that covered the talisman slowly dissipated. At this moment, Zong Shou could easily use his spiritual sense to investigate the structure of this god talisman.
… The other 11 god talismans that he got from Pill Spirit Mountain were all spiritual seeds. Only this luck word god talisman was a perfect spiritual restriction level and was also the most indiscernible.
After carefully comprehending for a moment, Zong Shou entered a meditative state. He was actually forming true spiritual restrictions within his soul ocean. With this complete god talisman as a reference, he was able to complete it without any obstructions. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
