In the Chong Zheng Hall, they spent another four hours discussing the details of these decrees, as well as many miscellaneous matters. Only then did they begin to disperse in satisfaction.
However, just as they were leaving, Zong Shou signaled towards Qiu Wei. He pointed towards Hu Zhongyuan and then blinked his eyes. Using his hand as a knife, he sliced his neck.
Qiu Wei pondered for a moment before coming to a realization. He bowed and said, "I understand. As for sealing down Shili Ling Xiangding, I will order Hu Zhongyuan to take charge. If he dares to bend the law. I, Qiu Wei, will marry him! "
His voice was really loud, like a huge bell. Everyone within the hall heard it.
Hu Qianqiu's expression was weird, who knew whether he was happy or worried. As for Hu Zhongyuan, he had a long face. He didn't know how he had offended this little ancestor.
If the matter today was spread out. His original circle of rich kids would see him as an enemy and he wouldn't be able to survive. As for his good reputation in Shili Ling Xiangding, it would stain the streets and everyone would want to beat him up.
Zong Shou's lips curled into a smile. This was just the start. The true method to deal with this fellow was still to come.
Until he walked out of the back door of the Chongzheng Hall, Zong Shou's body gave off a cold aura, extremely dark and sinister, occasionally laughing coldly. Chuxue couldn't help but shiver. She thought to herself that it was best not to provoke such a narrow-minded person like her young master.
Within the warm reading room, there were still huge amounts of official matters and memorials piled up.
However, today Zong Shou was too lazy to bother. He saw clearly that anyways, no matter big or small, Renbo would take care of it for him. Even if he didn't bother, this Gantian Mountain City wouldn't fall just like that.
He walked directly to the martial arts training room. Because of those complicated administrative matters, he wasted 2 days of time. Today he could finally take a look at his progress.
This martial arts training room that Zong Weiran used was extremely luxurious. Just the surface area alone was a thousand feet wide. There were sandbags, wooden dummies, rock-like weights, eighteen different weapons, and so on.
Zong Shou walked in front of a wooden man, only to see that this thing not only used grade 7 and above spiritual wood, but it was also wrapped in layers of grade 7 beast hides. It could reduce the damage to the wooden man to a minimum. In addition, there was also a Spiritual Array that could sense one's strength, allowing one to accurately estimate one's own strength.
Silently exclaiming at Zong Weiran's extravagance, Zong Shou directly punched out, only to hear a 'peng' sound, like he was defeated.
The wooden golem didn't even sway in the slightest. Only a yellow spiritual light flashed from its exterior.
That Strength Counting Spiritual Formation had a total of nine colors. Using the color to differentiate the level, and then using the depth of the color to determine the strength of the power.
"Dark yellow with a hint of red. His current strength should be around a hundred thousand jin, just slightly more than the pinnacle of Xiantian Realm! Also, the true qi in the body has gathered by quite a bit! "
Sōmorime's eyes instantly lit up with joy. He didn't expect that he would obtain such a huge benefit from completing the wishes of the previous Zong Shou!
He had actually merged close to 30% of the lightning phoenix essence in one go. If this went on, in less than a year, he would be able to totally absorb it.
Coincidentally, that world shocking spiritual art, he had more or less deduced the 2nd meridian cultivation method of the earth chakra level. Although it wasn't completed, it could be used.
Without hesitation, Zong Shou took out a Spirit Absorbing Pagoda. However, this time it wasn't the cheap item that he snatched from the hands of the Demon Flag Sect disciple in the underground river.
It was one of the spirit master artifacts that Zong Weiran left for him. It was 6 layers tall, a purple-gold color. Other people just needed to take a look and they would know that this was an extremely high grade item.
It was indeed so. Not only was it able to absorb one more spiritual vein than normal grade 6 spirit absorbing pagoda, but it was also able to help spirit masters. It could also help spirit masters search for those spiritual veins. Its suction strength was also grade 7.
Within the pagoda, Zong Shou had raised several 5 element spiritual veins and strengthened them.
At this moment, he didn't need to make any other preparations, just sitting down cross-legged. With a thought, he absorbed the 2 5 element spiritual veins into his body and raised them within his internal meridians.
At the start, it was a little unstable, clashing with the 2 earth veins within the external meridians. His skin started to tear, his meridians swelled like they were about to burst. Following which, Zong Shou used his true qi to forcefully suppress it. He also adjusted it before it slowly calmed down.
Then, he could feel the 6 organs in his body — gallbladder, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, bladder, and trijiao. They were all growing stronger at a speed that could be clearly felt.
The spiritual energy gathered in his body flowed endlessly, like it couldn't be used up. Even if it was used up, it could continue to be produced.
Zong Shou adjusted his breathing for a moment until the 4 earth veins in his body were totally stable and didn't clash with one another. Only then did he stand up, directly punching the body of the wooden puppet beside him. In an instant, the 4 spiritual veins were twisted into one. All the strength was used at the tip of the fist.
The yellow color of the spiritual light emitted by the wooden golem had completely disappeared and turned into a red color.
"Light red, but the color is really light. Its strength should be around 200 thousand kilograms. Based on my experience, it should be 190 thousand kilograms. I only merged with 2 spiritual veins … "
Normal peak xiantian experts had around 45 thousand kilograms of strength. If one broke through and merged with another spiritual vein. Their strength would instantly increase by 3 times to 150 thousand kilograms!
Now, he could barely go up against martial ancestors with just his 2 meridians. This was also under the situation where he didn't use sword intent to make his true qi more condensed.
However, this was the end of their progress. Thinking back to how he had the lightning phoenix essence and the strong martial path of his last life, but he couldn't use it. Zong Shou couldn't help but sigh at his tough life.
Luckily, his spiritual cultivation realm wasn't restricted and he could use it to improve himself.
Thinking about that, he stopped. Zong Shou was first fully focused, practicing the 4th set of energy leading techniques in the training field. Following which, he practiced those body training techniques — foundation breathing spiritual fist, great blazing sun fist, little 5 wheel enlightened king fist, and rhino spirit armor fist 10 times.
Lastly, he practiced the basic sword techniques, a full 20 times. The entire process was neither arrogant nor rash, he was really focused.
By the time he finished all the homework, four hours had already passed. Zong Shou's body was drenched in sweat.
In the past, during the journey, it was inconvenient to practice on the carriage and he couldn't use it.
Which was why Zong Shou spent most of his time on spiritual cultivation. Now that he returned to Gantian Mountain and finally settled down, he naturally had to make up for all the homework.
Even though his spiritual cultivation realm was far above the martial path. However, in Zong Shoxin's eyes, he still placed the sword path that he pursued in his last life as the top priority.
He completed all the basic techniques of the martial path one by one. Zong Shou practiced a spell as well as the techniques he thought of to deal with his hoarseness. Then, he heard the entire Hanyan Palace suddenly burst out in cheers.
Zong Shou was startled. Walking out of the training field, he saw the faces of the guards all flushed red with excitement. Their eyes were filled with gratitude as they looked over. Listening in, it was all discussions about the book hiding pavilion and buying pills.
Zong Shou was delighted, thinking that he could already invest in weapon and pill shops.
Taking loans from him, naturally they had to buy from the shops he chose. Not only could he earn money, but he could also rely on these 2 businesses to earn money. He could also develop some outstanding pill refiners and blacksmiths before the spiritual wave started, killing many birds with one stone. He was too smart.
What should he do? Even he himself was very impressed with himself. If this went on, wouldn't he be too narcissistic?
Turning his head, he saw Chu Xue at the side of the cliff staring down. Zong Shou walked over and similarly looked down. He saw that the city was decorated with lanterns and banners, tens of thousands of feet away. Zong Shou could still hear the sounds of firecrackers from below, looking really happy.
Looking closely, he saw that a small portion of the girls on the streets were smiling, their faces filled with joy.
When Chu Xue saw him walk over, she instantly giggled, "Young master, that Quiet Cloud Pavilion is in such a bad state. Young master, your idea is the best. Taking revenge for your personal grievances in a proper manner. "
Zong Shou's brows furrowed, looking towards the direction of Shili Ling Xiangding. Only to see that there were tens of thousands of troops there. One could vaguely see that Hu Zhongyuan was clad in metal armor, leading a group of soldiers, and had already begun to clear the area.
As for the Quiet Cloud Pavilion, it was currently surrounded by over a thousand women. They seemed to be arguing emotionally, who knows what they were saying.
Zong Shou's lips instantly curled up, but he quickly stopped himself. He knocked on Chu Xue's head, following which he wrote a few words in the air, gathering spiritual energy and directly forming it in the air.
"Nonsense! I am the lord of a city, why would I bother with some girls? "
Chu Xue rolled her eyes, thinking to herself that young master should just continue acting. Following which her brows furrowed, her eyes filled with pity, "Young master, these girls are really pitiful."
Zong Shou kept silent when he heard that, following which he smiled coldly and turned around. Similarly, a few words formed in the air.
"A family crying is better than a city crying. Let's talk about it in two days."
He directly turned around and walked back to the training grounds tiredly. Gathering spiritual energy to form words in the air was a method that he had just figured out. Although he could act cool, as he wasn't very familiar with it, the consumption of soul power was much greater than that of spells. Along with the practice from before, his soul power was almost all used up.
Chu Xue heaved a sigh of relief. She knew that with Zong Shou's personality, since he said that, then he definitely wouldn't kill all of them.
In the wide field, Zong Shou lit up a few red sandalwood incense and entered meditation.
After the luck word word, he formed two talismans, one was the swallow word and the other was the purify word.
The former had the heaven swallowing energy conversion technique in his hands. In the last life, Zong Shou had studied this scripture for many years. As long as he did some research, he would be able to roughly grasp it.
As for the purify word, Zong Shou also had some ideas about it. The thing that could give him the most inspiration was Little Gold on his arm. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
