Jing Tao Zhenren's brows instantly furrowed as he thought about it. As expected it was as what Zong Shou said.
More than 90% of the grade 6 beast corpses here weren't dead yet, dying from the mental impact of the martial path intent.
A thought flashed across his mind, his heart couldn't help but jump intensely.
Even Zhao Yanran and the others were deep in thought.
"I'm thinking whether or not there is some heavenly treasure here that can raise a grade 6 beast's grade, making them risk their lives like that? Legend has it that the beasts under the cloud ocean have the sharpest spiritual senses. Is that true or false? And the martial path intent here should be left by an expert who stepped into the celestial path. Legend has it that during the cloud desolate era, the land was huge. However, since that calamity at the end of the cloud desolate era, at least 70% of the land sunk into the cloud ocean. Who knows, this place might have a manor left by that senior. "
Zong Shou said while mocking himself, "I'm just making random guesses, don't take it seriously. This place is filled with death energy. Since the matter is over, it's best if we leave early … "
Just as he was about to turn around, he heard Jing Tao say seriously, "Your highness please wait. I feel that your guess is at least 80% true! I'm afraid that within this canyon, there are at least 200 grade 7 beasts. "
The corner of Zong Shou's lips curled up, following which he smiled bitterly, "I also think so. So what if I guessed it? With our strength, I'm afraid it will be quite dangerous if we go in. To take the treasures within, we would most probably have to disturb the martial path intent. If that's the case, it would cause a beast wave. At that time, a large half of my fleet would be destroyed. One should be content with what one has. With these ten million Grade Four beast crystals, Zong Shou was already satisfied. I'm not willing to risk my men … "
The surrounding people were originally stirred up by Jing Tao's words, their hearts surging with emotions. Even the oldest and calmest people like Zong Ling, Zhu Junhou and Ling Fakong couldn't help but feel their breathing become rushed. However, when they heard these words, it was as if a bucket of ice water was poured down from the top of their heads, causing their minds to wake up.
Thinking about it carefully, they couldn't help but feel ashamed. Just like Zong Shou said, one shouldn't be too greedy. If he were to lose his life for the sake of this imaginary treasure, the gains would not make up for the losses.
Following which, the people present felt their emotions surge. Their Ruler was indeed a magnanimous and wise ruler. If it was any other ambitious and ruthless person, even if they knew it was dangerous, they would most likely give it a try. He would definitely not care about the lives of his subordinates.
Jing Tao Zhenren's breathing also stopped slightly. Frowning, he suddenly took out an item and said, "I wonder if Your Highness knows about this item? With this item, we only need three hundred night wandering realm spirit masters. Jing Tao is confident that we can stop those beasts for at least an hour! "
Before Zong Shou spoke, Ling Fakong's expression turned solemn, "Is this the Lingyun Sect's Cloud Shocking Illusionary Token? Legend has it that the fourth generation founder of the Cloudsoaring Sect refined this Rank Nine spiritual weapon before leaving this world. He merged the complete Cloud Shocking God Destroying sword intent into it … "
Jing Tao Zhenren didn't speak, only smiling proudly. Zong Shou looked at the sword-shaped token in his hand and was also slightly shocked.
He knew that Jing Tao brought a protective item over to protect these forty inner sect disciples. However, he didn't expect that this fellow would actually bring such a grade of treasure. This was a surprise. At least those four thousand ice lightning arrows could be saved.
In his heart, he was extremely willing, but on his face he still hesitated, "If we add in this treasure, we do have some confidence. However, for safety, why don't you hand this Cloud Shocking Illusionary Token to my Gantian Mountain? My Gantian Mountain wants at least eighty percent of the items within! If we want to escape, we still need to rely on my eight hundred energy destroying crossbows … "
That Jing Tao obviously wasn't good at bargaining, frowning and thinking for a moment before passing the sword-shaped token to Zong Shou. He said, "Okay! However, if there are items that can upgrade, my Cloudsoaring Sect has the right to choose first. "
… He didn't care much about the benefits within. Only those heavenly treasures that could help beasts advance were most probably effective for human cultivators.
Zong Shou was startled. He opened his mouth wide and shouted eighty percent. He was leaving space for the other party to bargain. He didn't expect Jing Tao to be so decisive.
Following which, he felt the eighteen Cloud Shocking God Destroying sword intent seeds in his body crazily moving. Zong Shou's heart shook, he kept the token into his sleeves without making a sound.
After the discussion was settled, Zong Shou didn't delay any longer. 15 minutes later, thousands of ships lined up in rows, moving side by side as they continued to sail into the canyon.
The entrance of this place was narrow, but the space within was extremely vast. After traveling another twenty miles, the field of vision in front of the fleet expanded once more. A hundred thousand feet wide canyon appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
However, everyone was slightly shocked in their hearts. This place didn't look like it was formed naturally. It was like someone forcefully slashed it out with a sword! Around this place, one could see many clues.
Following which, they were attracted by the hundreds of beast corpses lying in the canyon. Their eyes lit up.
… As expected from what Jing Tao said, all of them were grade 7 beasts! There were over 400 of them. Along with the beast corpse soul stone, the value was equivalent to 1500 grade 7 beast crystals. Just the harvest within the valley was comparable to all the harvest outside of the valley!
The most eye-catching thing was the center of the canyon. A lone figure sat there. Beside him was a red longsword with phoenix patterns flashing on it. The sword was shining brightly with countless cracks and was on the verge of shattering. This was also where the wisp of martial intent came from.
Looking at all the grade 7 beasts, they all had their brains pierced through by a sharp blade.
"It is actually a magical weapon above grade 2, no wonder!"
The so-called magical weapon was actually a magical treasure. Zong Shou exclaimed, but he didn't take a close look. Instead, he sunk into his dantian, using the power of the cloud shocking illusionary token to activate the 18 cloud shocking god destroying sword intent spiritual seeds in his body.
Just now, when he received the token in his hand, the 18 sword intent seeds showed signs of gathering.
At this moment, he purposely coordinated and as expected, they all merged together, like a sword shape gathering in his energy ocean.
The sword energy dissipated. If it wasn't for his body, he would have been as strong as a peak martial ancestor. It was enough to cause numerous wounds to his energy ocean.
In his heart, he admired the Lingyun ancestor. Normally speaking. With his xiantian realm, no matter what, he shouldn't be able to grasp the sword intent level power.
However, today, not only did he grasp it, but it was also the complete cloud shocking god destroying sword intent!
The Sword Will was split into eighteen seeds. At the Xuanwu ancestor realm, one could totally refine it. Once merged, it would be a complete sword intent!
Originally, if the Lingyun Sect disciples used their normal speed, they would have to be at least ascended realm to complete this step.
However, they met Zong Shou, this monster. Not only was he good at the martial path, he could refine it at xiantian and coincidentally met this cloud shocking illusionary token. Using its power to complete the merger.
However, Zong Shou could feel that this complete cloud shocking sword intent was once again out of his control. Who knows whether this step was a blessing or a curse.
On the other side, Jing Tao didn't feel anything. His eyes were sharp as he swept around. In just a moment, his eyes were filled with surprise.
"Corpse harboring pinnacle sword grass! As expected, it is this item … "
Only to see that around that person, there were close to a thousand sword-shaped blades of grass. They were of different ages, some thousands of years old and some less than a thousand years old.
Zong Shou was also jolted to his senses. Taking a look, he smiled. He had also guessed that it was this item.
Where the corpse energy gathered, where the spiritual energy was the strongest, and there was also a magical weapon broken sword with the celestial martial sword intent beside it. There was at least a 90% chance that it was this corpse harboring pinnacle sword grass.
This kind of spiritual grass could help beasts and human race cultivators to raise their grade. However, the most important thing was to remove the corpse energy and poison within. One had to be a top pill refiner who was good at medicinal properties.
Moreover, once one relied on this item to advance, there would be some hidden problems that would affect the next advancement.
Naturally, Zong Shou didn't care much about it. However, to Jing Tao who was at the end of his life, it was a huge hope.
However, it was a little problematic to obtain these grasses. All the older sword-shaped spiritual grasses were beside the celestial martial body. Looking at the magical weapon, although it was on the verge of breaking. However, since it was able to kill so many grade 7 beasts, one could see how strong Power was.
Seeing Jing Tao look over with a begging gaze, Zong Shou smiled. Zong Shou smiled and started to arrange the formation.
Two hours later, a full thousand giant ships were arranged in a fan shape outside of the canyon entrance.
Pretty much all the crossbows were lined up at one side. Especially those 800 energy destroying crossbows and all the three arm spiritual crossbows which were aimed at the canyon entrance, totally locking down the entrance!
He also casually tossed the cloud shocking illusionary token to Ling Fakong. The latter was startled, filled with shock. He originally thought that Zong Shou would hand this item to Zong Ling to manage.
Did this mean that in just a few months, the new Monster king who caused Gantian Mountain to prosper had regained his trust in the eye wolf race?
His face flushed red. Ling Fakong didn't say a word as he started to organize the spirit masters to set up the formation within the canyon.
There were many spirit masters in Gantian Mountain and Xuan Mountain. Along with the inner sect disciples of Lingyun Sect, there were roughly 300 of them.
When the formation was formed, a large cloud mist spread out all around. It was uncertain, covering tens of miles. It also caused the martial path intent which covered this area to be slightly chaotic.
Zong Shou was shocked when he saw this. As expected, this Ling Fakong was the most talented spirit master in Gantian Mountain. The formation was strict and orderly, even he couldn't find any mistakes.
He was thinking about whether or not the ships of the 3 cities had arrived. He nodded his head, "Zong Shou is already prepared. If you are confident, you can attack. If you are late, there might be changes …"
Jing Tao didn't hesitate, in an instant, dozens of spiritual talismans shot out. They turned into spiritual light and charged towards the broken sword.
Zong Shou took a look, only to see those dozens of spiritual talismans. They were all items that could harm the soul and target the artifact spirit.
In the next instance, the heaven and earth here suddenly shook. (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.)
