600 Blood Cloud Cavalry could sweep the battlefield. A thousand cavalry could go up against a large sect like the Mysterious Cloud Spirit Sect and not lose.
To be able to gather up 500 Blood Cloud Cavalry in a year was already not bad. With how prosperous Gantian Mountain was, in 5-6 years they could reach a thousand. Considering the spiritual wave, the time could be shortened.
Zong Shou was still a little unwilling, not giving up as he asked, "100 thousand? Can't it be more? I'll get people to throw some beasts down, can you refine it out? "
Hearing those words, Xuanyuan Yiren looked at Zong Shou like she was looking at an idiot, "You can, but even grade 6 beasts need at least 7 years to be able to resist the poison of the spiritual salamander essence blood."
Zong Shou frowned, following which he sighed. He knew that his mentality was already out of balance. He didn't even think about such common sense.
However, in the next instance, he heard Xuanyuan Yiren say, "There is another way, which is to directly take the blood from the broken tail of the spiritual salamander. I studied it before. Although the spiritual salamander is one of the ancient god beasts and is famous for its poison, it shouldn't have any poison. Which is why I deduced that the blood of the spiritual salamander would only be poisonous after it came into contact with the wind … "
Zong Shou's eyes lit up, feeling like there was a light at the end of the tunnel. He knew that the 'wind' that Xuanyuan Yiren mentioned should be after the blood of the spiritual salamander came into contact with the air.
Xuanyuan Yiren was halfway through her words when she frowned, "It probably won't work. Even if we can get the blood of the spiritual salamander, we might not be able to use it to refine pills. Legend has it that the spiritual salamander is an ancient saint realm, and it is said that it still exists in the world. Even a broken tail has a strong will. If we take its blood and are unable to purify it, we would be asking for trouble. "
Zong Shou had already stood up. However, when he walked to the entrance of the cave, he suddenly thought about something. He could only turn around and brace himself, "Oh right! I forgot to say. More than ten days ago, I destroyed the body of your Eldest Senior Brother. "
When Xuanyuan Yiren heard that, her lips curled up, expressing that she didn't believe him right away. Zong Shou was just a return to sun spirit master, so how could he be the opponent of his senior brother who had entered grade 7 a few years ago?
However, in the next moment, he saw Zong Shou's extremely serious expression. Thinking back to that time on Mount Xuan, Zong Shou had also used martial arts as one, borrowing Wei Xu's power to defeat a Type 8 powerhouse. His eyelids couldn't help but twitch as he asked in bewilderment, "He really cut it down?"
Zong Shou didn't answer. He just nodded seriously. Xuanyuan Yiren instantly sucked in a cold breath. She took in a deep breath before asking, "Then Zong Shou, do you feel guilty about anything?"
"No!" Zong Shou shook his head, "Your senior brother teamed up with Han Nishui and Long Ruo to try and kill me. In the end, together with Long Ruo, I cut down their bodies … "
Actually, strictly speaking, Li Yuandan's body was destroyed by Long Ying. However, Zong Shou didn't want Xuanyuan Yiren to turn her hatred onto Long Ying.
When they heard the names Han Nishui and Long Ruo, the 3 women in the cave couldn't help but lose their color.
Xuanyuan Yiren was slightly moved, following which she shook her head, "Then my senior brother was wrong. Zong Shou, you didn't do anything wrong. My senior brother was too eager for quick success, his methods were despicable and not like a gentleman. Learning a lesson this time is actually a good thing. What's done is done. After returning to the sect, I will report to the elders and teachers to ask them to differentiate right from wrong. "
Following which she didn't speak anymore, worry appearing on her face.
When Zong Shou saw that, he smiled instead. He knew that this kind and righteous girl didn't want to blame him.
As for this Pill Fountain Sect, if it wasn't for Yiren, he really wouldn't care about it. Even without the Blood Cloud Cavalry, the current Gantian Mountain was enough to go up against them.
He drove his sword into the air once more, charging into the thick mist. This time, he flew directly to the center of the valley.
Chu Xue, Ruoshui, and Xuanyuan Yiren chased after him. At this moment, Xue could actually drive an artifact to travel. However, her body was shaky, nearly falling down several times. She relied on Ruoshui's support to not fall.
A hundred miles of distance was covered in an instant. In just a short moment, the white mist slowly turned blood red. The deeper they went, the thicker the blood mist got.
It also had the power to bewitch one's heart, causing one to unknowingly deviate from the path.
There was also a will that was growing stronger and stronger, filling the surroundings. At the start, Yiren and the others could still follow, but then they could only land on the ground and walk.
Zong Shou was really familiar with it, his speed didn't decrease at all. Until he estimated that he had already reached the center of the valley. He casually cast a spell and instantly a strong wind blew. It swept away the mist.
Following which he saw a giant stone pillar stabbed into the ground. It was five thousand feet tall, thick enough for a hundred people to hug it.
The pillar was curved, sharp at the bottom and wide at the top, the tail was stabbed deep into the ground. The surroundings were covered with rocks that looked like scales.
At the top, it looked like it was cut by a knife, there was a clean cut. Occasionally a blood red liquid would seep out, and the moment it came into contact with the air, it would suddenly boil, giving out numerous smoke and spreading all about.
Not far away, roughly ten miles away, there was a cave entrance. Occasionally it would give out mist. Apart from large amounts of water vapor, there was the special black mist from the abyss.
"This is the tail of the spiritual salamander!"
Xuanyuan Yiren stood eight thousand feet out and stopped. Although this place was just a section of the spiritual salamander's tail, after ten thousand years, the vast intent could still suppress everything.
Walking to this point was already her limit, and she could only look on from afar. However, her eyes were still filled with shock.
During this month, although the few of them had been hunting beasts in this fog valley, they didn't know where the spiritual salamander was. However, he didn't know where the broken tail was. Following closely behind Zong Shou, he finally saw it.
Zong Shou didn't say a word as he flew above the broken cliff. Looking below, only to see that although the smooth top of the stone pillar seeped out a fresh red liquid, it had a pungent smell. It was obvious that it was filled with poison.
This was also within his expectations. With a thought, he summoned the yin fire sword in front of him.
A few talismans buffed the sword body. Then, he stabbed downwards with his sword.
Suddenly nine Long Ying Dragons appeared behind him, giving out dragon roars. The lightning winged flood serpent also showed its body. With a sway of his body, his soul left his body and entered the Fire Yin Sword.
It was like it was an artifact spirit, causing the aura of the sword to explode.
"Keng!"
A heavy sound. When the sword and stone clashed, numerous sparks flew out. That fire yin sword which was as sharp as a grade 2 magical treasure was only able to slash out a small white mark before it was bounced back by a huge strength.
The vast consciousness hidden within the stone pillar also swelled at this moment and spontaneously bounced back.
Zong Shou's body shook and he nearly fell to the ground. His face was covered in bean-sized cold sweat.
This was a saint realm intent! Just this small portion of the broken tail was enough to cause his soul to nearly collapse!
He took in a few deep breaths, grabbing a few pills and swallowing them into his mouth.
After a few breaths, Zong Shou recovered a little. Following which he didn't hesitate to slash out once more!
Only to hear another "keng", sparks flew out, causing the white mark to become a little deeper.
Then, sword after sword, after each sword, Zong Shou felt that it was a little more taxing.
That chaos ocean whirlpool was close to collapsing under this huge pressure. Luckily, at the 7th sword, the nine layer pagoda gave out a yellow glow, suppressing his soul once more.
It didn't stop until the 13th sword landed. Only then did the white mark reach half a finger deep into the stone. Suddenly, a bright red seeped out from within.
Zong Shoxin was delighted. He immediately used his spiritual power to cut off the spiritual energy in the air around. Then, he drew out the fresh blood of the spiritual salamander.
However, when he drew out the 5th drop, the white mark had totally healed and no fresh blood seeped out anymore. The total time was less than 10 breaths.
Zong Shou shook his head. The self-healing ability of this spiritual salamander was so strong that it was overpowered.
Other people only knew that this spiritual salamander was still in the world. However, he knew that this god beast was half dead, hiding in the depths of the void. Actually, it wasn't far from death. If not, it wouldn't dare to target this spiritual salamander.
Even then, the remaining strength of the broken tail was unbelievably strong. It was also attacking the wound. If it was the other parts that were protected by the scales. Even if his fire yin sword was broken, he wouldn't be able to cut it open.
At this moment, his consciousness was in a daze and he didn't dare to continue. He hurriedly drove his sword up to 40 thousand feet. That sword light couldn't take it anymore and he fell to the ground.
Luckily, Xuanyuan Yiren and Chu Xue were affected by the intent and retreated nearby. They all hurriedly rose into the air to catch Zong Shou so that he wouldn't be in such a bad state.
Xuanyuan Yiren's face was ashen green.
"I think Zong Shou you are crazy. That is a spiritual salamander!"
That level of soul suppression made her feel like her soul was about to collapse when she was ten thousand feet away. Zong Shou was facing it head-on. It was a miracle that he didn't die.
Zong Shou smiled awkwardly and didn't reply. After slightly recovering, he placed the item in his hand in front of his eyes.
It was the blood of the spiritual salamander. Even just now when he was about to lose consciousness, he didn't forget to use true qi to restrict it to separate the air and spiritual energy.
At this moment, these few drops of blood seemed to have a life of their own, continuously changing shapes.
Xuanyuan Yiren didn't even take a look, scoffing coldly, "I didn't ask you to use your life to exchange for it! Moreover, this saint realm intent can't be removed. Even if it isn't poisonous, it can't be used to refine pills. "
Zong Shou broke into a laugh, activating the heaven swallowing energy conversion technique. He swallowed and cleaned it up. These few drops of blood instantly changed. They became much more well-behaved and lost all their vitality.
Xuanyuan Yiren's eyes were filled with disbelief. She could clearly feel that although the essence energy within the blood was lost, the spiritual salamander intent was also weakened to the extreme.
If that was the case, then it was possible to use it to refine pills. Frowning and deep in thought, Xuanyuan Yiren opened her mouth once more.
"If that is the case, then I have a way to increase the number of pills to five hundred thousand, as long as there are enough grade 4 pill masters. However, I only need three drops of this spiritual salamander blood, any more is useless … " If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
