Chu Xue looked at this scene with her mouth agape. Today, Zong Shou and this mutated octopus beast gave her too many surprises. So many that her little brain couldn't fit it all in.
Looking at Little Gold's current situation, it was more like a spiritual weapon than a protector beast.
Zong Shou's lips curled up. His fingers shook slightly, and a black talisman knife appeared between his fingers.
Not only were there cloud patterns flashing within the knife body. There was also a slight wind blowing around. This caused the aura of the talisman knife to become more and more dangerous.
He kept the talisman knife and took out the Pine Pattern Wind Sword. Instantly, a layer of silver-white color spread from his palm to the sword body until it completely covered the sword.
Zong Shou smiled, his eyes filled with joy.
Be it the ability to swallow or the ability to purify, they were all Little Gold's abilities.
Changing into all things was the ability that Little Gold had awakened after reaching Grade Two.
The current Little Gold could not only make the Pine Pattern Wind Sword stronger. The spirit channels in his body were like a natural talisman formation, allowing Zong Shou to perfectly use the wind controlling ability of the green pearl.
If the situation was dangerous, he could use it to replace the original Wind Accumulating Ball as the spiritual core of the Wind Wall Formation.
However, this ability was still not strong, and could at most be used as a support. After reaching Grade Four, its ability to change into all things would start to show.
With a slight thought, Little Gold knew what he was thinking. The silver-white color covering his arm instantly retracted back into his sleeves.
At this moment, Zong Shou felt a pungent smell enter his nose. Looking down, his clothes were already drenched. Especially his chest, which was seeping out a layer of black mud-like substance. The smell was really strong.
Zong Shou's brows furrowed slightly, but then he smiled, glancing at Chu Xue with bad intentions.
Counting the days, it was time for the medicinal bath. Coincidentally, he was so tired that he couldn't even move a finger.

In the following few days, Zong Shou didn't use the Energy Swallowing Technique. Every day, he would practice the Spiritual Breathing Fist. At least forty-eight times, no less. There was also the Guiding Technique, which could be used within 30 times. Even the practice of swordsmanship had been reduced.
Apart from strengthening his foundation, he also used this fist technique to control the surging true qi in his body.
Occasionally, when he entered a meditative state, he would use all his strength to consolidate the foundation, breath, marrow, and these three chakra meridians. Occasionally, he would open up one or two extra meridians to store his true qi. It caused the number of acupoints he could use outside of his meridians to reach 20, most of them belonging to the water and wind elements.
At night, he would use the Sky Mirror Soul Shining Technique to gather moonlight. He continued to burn his Divine Soul.
The number of bronze mirrors had increased to a total of 16, and Zong Shou had polished the surfaces of the mirrors until they were even smoother. The temperature of the essence sun fire had also increased by three times!
"The so-called Soul Observation of a Spirit Master is to peek into one's own soul and thoughts, or to visualize, to constantly grasp the changes in one's soul consciousness. Similar to the Spirit Concentration before, it wasn't just the beginning of a Spirit Master's cultivation. Even at the True Star Realm, it was homework that one had to do every day. It was similar to how we martial artists observe our own bodies … "
Maybe because he was too deeply immersed in the path of martial cultivation in his last life. Even if Zong Shou could be considered a Soul Observation Realm Spirit Master and was a dual cultivator, his mindset still hadn't changed. He still treated himself as a Martial Master.
In his last life, in the game, he had already stepped into the Celestial Realm. In reality, with his average body, he forcefully entered the Ascended Realm during the era when the Spiritual Wave was extinguished.
All techniques came from the same source. Even if Zong Shou had been walking the path of a Martial Master, it was still beneficial to his cultivation in terms of soul power.
In just a few days, he had made some progress in the process of Soul Observation. Apart from his soul power accumulation, which was still lacking. He had already roughly grasped the structure of his soul.
If one truly calculated, his Spirit Master cultivation could be considered to have entered the mid to late stages of the Soul Observation Realm.
Spirit Master cultivation was just like that, focusing more on comprehension and talent. As long as one comprehended each step and did it well, one's realm could rise and reach the heavens in one step.
Zong Shou remembered that during the God Emperor era, spirit masters were the ones who cultivated the fastest. In just a year, he went from the initial Spirit Focus Realm to the Return to Sun Realm.
It wasn't like martial cultivation, where one needed to accumulate step by step and progress step by step.
In comparison, his current cultivation speed could only be considered average. The only thing that made him slightly pleased was that these few days, under the Sky Mirror Soul Shining Technique and the twelve God Talismans, his soul had recovered to its pure state.
The soul power fluctuation caused by forcefully expanding his soul ocean seemed to be showing signs of calming down.
"If I can maintain such purity, I might be able to directly skip the Night Wandering Realm. I might be able to directly enter the Return to Sun Realm … "
Thinking about that in his heart, Zong Shou stopped meditating. When he opened his eyes, the first thread of sunlight shone in from outside the window.
His Dual Meridian Body made his stamina weak. Even if his cultivation had entered the Martial Master Realm, it didn't change much.
Only his mind was filled up. Meditating for six hours this night was even better than sleeping, and all the fatigue in his body was gone.
However, the moment he woke up, a strong sense of hunger suddenly attacked him. Rumbling sounds could be heard from his stomach.
Zong Shou couldn't help but smile. The foundation energy stabilizing and opening up his marrow chakra caused his appetite to greatly increase.
His daily food intake had increased by three times. This also meant that his body was improving, and the amount of energy he needed had greatly increased. This was why not only did he not need to worry about it, but it was also something to be happy about.
"I have already dashed for seven days in this Black Soil Swamp. It is time to stop and rest up. I remember that the most delicious thing here is the Black Soil Crocodile. Legend has it that not only is the meat delicious, but it is also beneficial for training the bones and marrow of martial cultivators, as well as training the skin and bones. Later I can let Uncle Yin catch some nearby … "
Thinking about that, Zong Shou frowned. Following which he sighed. The feeling of danger from before didn't increase or decrease during these few days. However, it was like maggots in his bones, unable to be shaken off.
Recently, he had begun to wonder if this sense of danger was just his imagination.
Suddenly, the carriage shook unnoticeably, and then it slowed down. Zong Shou's brows furrowed, following which he laughed coldly.
After waiting for so long, it was finally here …
His body flashed as he exited the carriage. When he reached the front of the carriage, he saw Yin Yang and Chu Xue frowning as they looked to the right.
Zong Shou followed their gazes and looked carefully. Roughly ten thousand feet to the right, there was a pack of wolves galloping.
At the front were five Cloud Stepping Foals, fleeing in the direction of the carriage. On them sat four males and one female. The males were all dressed up as martial cultivators, but at this moment they were all terrified.
As for the female, Zong Shou looked at her and was startled. Her appearance was like a lotus flower that had just emerged from the water. She was as pretty as jade and peerlessly beautiful.
Even when she was fleeing for her life, she was still seductive, making one want to protect her. Her gaze towards him was filled with tears, filled with a pleading look. It made one want to give up their life to help her.
Zong Shou was startled for a moment before he came back to his senses, shaking his head slightly, "Don't worry about them, let's speed up and go around them!"
Xue was startled, her face showing that she couldn't bear to do so. However, in the end, she placed Zong Shou's safety first and didn't say a word.
Yin Yang's expression turned serious, waving his whip once more. In the air above the eighteen Cloud Stepping Foals, there was a sharp sound of the whip breaking through the air. It caused the cloud crossing carriage to suddenly speed up!
