They sat there for another 4 hours. Until the dawn of the second day, those crystal ants didn't appear once more and there weren't any dangerous situations around.
In the horizon, a large sun gradually rose from the east, and rays of light shone down. Everyone here relaxed, having a feeling like they had just survived a calamity.
Following which, from the side of Linhai College, there were sounds of quarreling. It seemed like some students along with 2 professors were targeting Xi Yan and the others who fled first. They were split into 2 factions, opposing one another.
Jin Buhui laughed coldly, standing up, "Dragon Gathering Mountain has changed, I'm afraid that not long later there will be a fierce battle. The owners of those crystal ants are still within. If you all want to live then back out. If you still want to die, no one can save you all … "
Those quarreling voices instantly went silent. On the other stone pillar, everyone's faces were ashen white. There were already many people whose eyes were filled with fear and the intent to retreat.
Yesterday's impression was simply too deep. Twenty odd people fell in one night. If it wasn't for Zong Shou reminding them in advance, causing them to be prepared. He also left a formation base here for them. Who knows, maybe this bunch of people would all die in the mouths of the crystal ants.
After Jin Buhui finished, he didn't bother about this bunch of people, directly smiling towards Zong Shou, "I like to take risks, the more dangerous the situation the more I want to take a look. What were those fellows trying to do? However, this path is still a little dangerous. Traveling with your highness, we can take care of each other. "
Zong Shou had the same thoughts. He had no interest in this change. Only the remnant image of the martial saint was something he didn't want to miss.
He kept the beast crystals and mind stones that weren't used up and was about to move. Thinking about it, he let Gong Yue follow.
He was confident that he would be able to protect this fellow's life in a more dangerous situation.
On this path towards the peak of the mountain, there weren't any more dangerous situations. Even those beasts that lived within the mountain were nowhere to be seen. If he wasn't wrong, it should have been totally flattened by the ant swarm yesterday.
Thinking of those Demon Fire Crystal Ants, Zong Shouxin felt a slight chill in his heart. He asked curiously, "Brother Jin, may I know who the owner of the Demon Fire Ant Queen is? Since he is a Type 7 powerhouse, wouldn't it be against the rules to attack us in the Cloud Continent?
"Who said it's the seventh step?"
Jin Buhui shook his head, "No wonder brother Zong doesn't know. This person is someone from the Central Cloud Continent and he calls himself 'Ant Zhenren'. Like the two of us, he is only a Return to Sun spirit master. However, twenty years ago, this person had obtained the egg of an ant queen and summoned it as his natural protector beast. After a few decades of cultivation, a colony of nearly 100,000 ants had been raised. Hence, his strength is the strongest in the Cloud Continent. Even some true ascended ancestors and day wandering spirit masters aren't his match. "
Zong Shou was startled. He really didn't know that there was such a person in the Central Continent.
His heart was filled with apprehension. To think that he had grasped dozens of sword intents, and with the experience of his previous life as a foundation, he was invincible under the seventh level. Today it seems like he had underestimated the heroes of the world.
Just based on this Ant Zhenren's strength alone, he could fight against a million strong army. To use the ant queen as a protector beast, he was really dreaming. He actually succeeded.
He was also secretly curious. Why did such a person come to Dragon Gathering Mountain? Just to comprehend the martial saint remnant image? But why did he want to disperse the ant colony yesterday? Hearing that last howl, it seemed like he had fought with someone?
Unable to understand no matter how he thought about it, Zong Shou knew that it was best if he didn't interfere in this matter and stayed as far away as possible.
Luckily, there were experts from the various sects at the peak of Dragon Gathering Mountain so he didn't need to worry.
Gong Yue was carried by Zong Yuan, curiously sizing up Zong Shou along the way.
He only felt that this fellow was totally different from the image that Gong Xinran described in the letter.
The letter said that Zong Shou was honest and kind. Due to being unable to cultivate, he was troubled every day and was a pitiful person.
However, based on what he saw, he didn't know if he was honest or not. Anyways, he was a vicious person.
As for cultivation, this fellow's combat strength could be on the same level as the top direct disciples of Haoxuan Sect. If such a person was pitiful, then what about the other people?
Thinking about the people in Linhai College who were discussing Zong Shou not long ago. Many people mocked and looked down on him. If they knew about what happened today, who knows how many people's jaws would drop?
Thinking about it, this Zong Shou's personality definitely couldn't be said to be honest and kind.
400 miles, the 4 of them sprinted at full speed, using just 6 hours to arrive.
When they reached here, they could see many people. There were people from all powers, there were even many demon sect disciples.
These people all came up from the west which was why they didn't meet the ant colony.
Dragon Gathering Mountain was split into inner and outer gates. The core disciples of those famous sects could directly enter through the inner gate. It was said that there were only 20 spots, any more and one wouldn't be able to enter.
For someone like him, he could only enter through the outer gate.
He had to go through the heavy restrictions left by the martial saint to solve the riddle to be able to see the true secrets of the legacy.
However, entering from the inner gate was much faster.
Zong Shou had an outer gate spot long ago. Before Wei Xu left, he ordered people to deal with it.
At that time, Wei Xu probably didn't expect that he would directly swallow Xiping and Tianfang provinces in a few months.
As the landlord, he could bring as many people in as he wanted.
He also saw a few familiar people in the crowd. A few cold gazes instantly looked over.
Zong Shou also looked over, only to see a teen in a brocade robe standing a thousand feet away. Behind him, there were a few burly men who seemed to be from the army. Their postures were like rocks, not moving at all.
However, their expressions were dark and cold, revealing a bone-deep hatred. That teen's appearance was similar to that of Yue Guanyun.
Zong Shou took a look and knew that this person was Yue Guanyun's son, Yue Linghuan. On the battlefield, the two of them had crossed swords in terms of strategy.
Zong Shou won but wasn't able to take down the 4 provinces. Although this Yue Linghuan lost, he kept the ability to rise up again.
This was the first time the two of them met face to face.
Apart from that, ten thousand feet away, a girl also looked over curiously. There were many familiar people here. Zong Shou noticed that a few of them were Xiong Ba's guards.
As expected, this girl should be the so-called princess Xuan Yu. What was surprising was that this girl wasn't as burly as the bear race. Her appearance was exquisite and beautiful. Unfortunately, her figure was too tall. She was at least nine feet tall. She stood there like a crane in a flock of chickens.
"Your Highness has quite a lot of enemies …"
Jin Buhui noticed that the atmosphere here wasn't right. He instantly burst out laughing and was interested. Since Zong Shou arrived, 8 out of 10 people all looked over at Zong Shou. Their expressions were also a little weird.
Zong Shou gave out a self-mocking laugh, "My father has enemies all over the world and he himself isn't much better. For safety reasons, it is best if brother Jin doesn't follow me in case you get dragged down. "
Naturally, there were many friendly people in the crowd. A small half of them were under Cang Shengdao. Zong Shou saw Zhao Yanran and Xuan Yunlan right away. The 2 of them left 20 days ago to return to their sects to take a look at the Dragon Gathering Martial Saint's remnant image.
Zong Shou wanted to keep a distance from Cang Shengdao so it wasn't good for him to greet him. He just nodded his head.
The other people didn't bother much, walking to the side and finding a clean green stone to sit down.
As time went on, more and more people gathered here, close to a thousand.
Not only Donglin Cloud Continent, but even the other 4 continents and 12 islands had many people rushing over.
Jin Buhui didn't separate from him, sitting together with him. He only stared with his soybean-sized eyes, looking around with a focused expression like he was searching for traces of someone.
On the 3rd day, balls of light descended from the sky one after another.
Without needing to look, one knew that the true experts of the various sects and factions had arrived.
Zong Shou's brows furrowed as he sensed the aura. These people were actually all at the Seventh Stage and above. A few of them were older and above grade 8. They either cultivated in spiritual cultivation or the martial path.
The moment they rushed over, they caused the sounds of conversation to fall silent.
The person with the highest cultivation was a 40-year-old middle-aged man who seemed to have some relationship with Jin Buhui.
The latter winked at the other side and chuckled. That middle-aged man scoffed coldly and wasn't willing to bother.
Zong Shou knew right away that this was someone from Haoxuan Sect and should be Jin Buhui's senior.
"This is my senior brother, he is called Xuan Taiji. Don't look at him, he is a true 6 meridian grandmaster. Unfortunately, senior brother is too old-fashioned and boring. This time the martial saint remnant image of Dragon Gathering Mountain was hosted by him … "
Just as he spoke, he saw a person walk over from the side. Jin Buhui didn't recognize him but Zong Shou's brows furrowed, recognizing that this person was Han Nishui.
His expression was really elegant, looking like a gentle gentleman. He walked casually with his hands behind his back and after he arrived in front of the few of them, he sized up Zong Shou and Zong Yuan. When he saw Jin Buhui, he was slightly surprised but he didn't pay much attention to him.
"Not seeing you for 10 days, your highness looks even better! Your highness is really bold, daring to come here with only one person, aren't you afraid of any accidents? "
Zong Shou smiled when he heard that, his smile was extremely bright, "It seems like brother Han has been worried about my safety for a long time …"
Han Nishui's eyes turned sharp, following which he laughed, "That's true. 10 days ago, your highness humiliated me. Han Nishui and Mysterious Cloud Spirit Sect will remember that. Naturally, I would be more concerned about Your Highness' safety. "
He continued, "There's one more thing I want to tell your highness. Not long later, I will personally head to Xuan Mountain City to propose. Han Nishui originally wanted to give up on this marriage, but now he has changed his mind and wants to fight for it with Your Highness … " If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
