All of a sudden, the air above the lake was so silent that one could hear a pin drop.
Everyone was in deep thought. Wuji's eyes shone as he looked at the book in Zong Shou's hands.
Since it wasn't the true Universe Book, it was naturally less attractive. However, Saint Realm Experts were able to trace the source to a certain extent.
If he could have this half of the book, then he would most probably be able to find out who the owner was.
Apart from the half that was snatched away, the half in Zong Shou's hands was the only clue to the Universe Creation Records.
Forcefully snatching wasn't the best plan. With the strength of Daoling Vast Habitat, it wasn't impossible to attack Gantian Mountain but they would suffer heavy losses.
However, how was he going to exchange for this half of the book?
Zifang was in deep thought and didn't speak for a long time like he was weighing the pros and cons.
The few Vast Habitats sent people over mostly to take a look at the description.
That Universe Book was indeed not here. Who knew that they would be able to find a clue to the true Universe Book?
At this moment, even he was tempted.
Zong Shou smiled and kept the half of the book in his hands, "I still need to study this book, it records space laws. It is beneficial to me and I might keep it in my hands to comprehend it for a year and a half. At that time, if you are interested, no matter who you are, you can exchange with me … "
Everyone here was delighted. Even the eyes of the dozens of Grade-9 experts of Sky Demon Vast Habitat lit up.
They knew what Zong Shou meant. It seemed like he didn't care who was the one who exchanged for the book.
Be it Demon Path or Righteous Sect, he didn't care. Moreover, it seemed like he didn't want to be enemies with Sky Demon Vast Habitat.
Wuji's eyes turned cold and instantly calmed back down. Zong Shou had two Saint Realm experts behind him!
Not to mention a year and a half, they couldn't even wait for half a month. Who knew whether or not that Long Ying Ao Kun would peep?
There were many ways to comprehend this half of the book. As long as he used a secret technique to make a rubbing, he could keep this Zong Shou for as long as he wanted.
While everyone was deep in thought, a chuckle suddenly came from above the lake.
"What a Gantian Monster King! I owe you a favor this time, thank you very much! "
No one knew where that voice came from, but it reverberated for a long time.
Zong Shou raised his eyebrows and suddenly stretched out his hand. He tore open the void in front of him and stepped into it.
In the blink of an eye, he appeared in an empty space. Coincidentally, he was in the middle of a spatial gap. It was pitch black all around, and he couldn't see anyone.
"He left so quickly!"
Although he had already left, Zong Shou could still use his mind to capture the changes in the aura in the distance.
He was only slower by a thousandth of a second, and that person had escaped.
Actually, he could still chase, but in the end, there wouldn't be much of a change. Most probably, that person would still escape. Zong Shou was too lazy to waste energy, stopping and looking into the distance. Instead, he tried his best to deduce the identity of that person.
"Who is that?"
Shui Lingbo followed behind and also stepped in. Her face was flushed red and her eyes were filled with anger.
Today, she was spied on time and time again, but she was unable to notice the tracks of these few people. It made her feel like her face had nothing to do with it, and she was already furious to the extreme.
"I also don't know!"
Zong Shou shook his head slightly, his brows furrowed, "I guessed that it was Shiyue, but I can't confirm …"
"Shiyue? Zong Shou, how do you know him? "
Shui Lingbo looked at Zong Shou weirdly, seeing that this fellow was touching his chin in deep thought, not intending to explain at all. She couldn't help but scoff coldly, looking behind Zong Shou.
"Forget it! However, what are you planning to do with this thing? Don't you plan to refine it and take it … "
Zong Shou turned around and looked behind, only to see that the golden throne had actually followed over and was hanging behind him.
He couldn't help but find it amusing, this was another problem that made one annoyed.
"It is indeed a problem! Anyways, I don't really want it. Whoever wants to take it can take it! Now, it likes me, but I don't like it anymore … "
The moment he said this, the golden throne instantly shook. Like it was crying out.
Shui Lingbo couldn't help but burst out laughing. She had never seen such a person. Just now, he was so majestic, suppressing 6 people with his sword. He didn't make a sound, plotting against the person who set up the Xiang King tomb as well as the person who escaped.
At this moment, he was so childish to fight with a spiritual artifact …
Looking at the Avici Throne, it seemed like it had decided to accept Zong Shou as its master. There wouldn't be any changes.
"I really can't be bothered with you! I am returning to the common people's vast habitat, when are you coming back … "
Slightly shaking her head, Shui Lingbo said that. She suddenly exclaimed, focusing on Zong Shou's left shoulder.
Only to see that there was a little puppy lying there, looking at her timidly.
Before the intense battle, she didn't notice it. Only now did she notice the existence of this little thing.
"This is your new protector beast?"
There was no mistaking the faint spiritual connection between the man and the beast. However, no matter how Shui Lingbo tried to discern it, she couldn't sense any difference between this little thing and a normal puppy.
Looking closely, Shui Lingbo had already made her judgment, "How ugly! How weak! "
There weren't many spirit masters who could support protector beasts. Like Zong Shou who were all living beasts, the amount of soul power they consumed was much more.
Even if they were all natural protector beasts, they still needed large amounts of soul power.
She really didn't know where Zong Shou got this puppy from to actually waste a spot just like that.
Zong Shou also took a look at Xiaori. Just now when he was fighting, this little puppy was really obedient. Although it had just lost its father, it didn't make a fuss, making one really happy.
His heart was filled with love. Zong Shou's eyes turned into a line as he smiled.
"This little fellow? It is called Xiaori, it is a Qilin. Don't look at it like that, its combat strength isn't weak … "
The son of a god beast was grade 7 the moment it was born. After ten thousand years, although this Xiaori didn't grow much, its strength wasn't weak.
If it wasn't for the suppression of the cloud world, it should have reached the spirit realm. It was undoubtedly the strongest out of his few spirit beasts and was also his biggest trump card.
Unfortunately, this little fellow was really malnourished and its energy was really weak. It had also just gone through a tragic matter. If he ordered it to fight now, it would only be a tragedy. It would also damage its source and affect its future.
"Qilin?"
Shui Lingbo couldn't help but laugh, covering her lips and bursting out into a laugh.
This puppy might have the bloodline of a Qilin, but it was most probably a distant relative. Who knows what was going on with Zong Shou.
She didn't believe it in her heart, but she was too lazy to say anything more to this fellow. Sooner or later, Zong Shou would regret doing such a thing.
She was really lazy, Shui Lingbo held up a red umbrella and placed it above her head, "I am going back. If you have time remember to come to Cang Shengdao Palace. I didn't say that, but that old man Hanfang wants you to go back and take a look! Also, that thing can be considered a country protecting treasure. Zong Shou don't be dumb … "
She left right away, in just a moment she disappeared in front of Zong Shou's eyes.
At this moment, Xiaori gave out a soft roar. Like it was being looked down on by Shui Lingbo and felt unhappy.
Zong Shou looked at it and laughed, "Little puppy, you really look like …"
That Qilin didn't know what he meant, its teary eyes looked at its master in confusion.
Zong Shou didn't bother about it, turning around and looking at the Avici Throne.
Like it was afraid that he really didn't want it, the golden throne shone brightly.
Those nine carved dragons seemed to have come alive as they moved about on the throne. They showed him all kinds of supernatural powers and special abilities.
However, apart from the ability to swallow one's essence energy, the other uses of this item were mostly support.
Zong Shou didn't care much. If it was a killing weapon, then it would be a headache.
Naturally, two images flashed through his mind. One was sitting on the throne, fighting with someone with a sword. That scene seemed too arrogant and overbearing.
The other scene was him holding up the Avici Throne. Using it to smash people, that made him speechless.
"Country Protecting Treasure?"
Zong Shou muttered and then laughed, "Forget it! It is best if I keep it … "
Casually waving his hand, he kept the golden throne into the Lingjie Ring space. The latter didn't resist and allowed him to collect it. After entering the Lingjie Ring, it consciously stayed in a corner far away from Ruoshui.
Just as Zong Shou was about to tear open space once more. When he returned to the deep underground lake, his brow furrowed and he casually grabbed with his right hand. A few more golden talismans appeared in his hand. A total of seven of them arrived one after another.
These talismans should have been sent out a few days ago. However, due to the Yin Dragon Canyon blocking them, they didn't reach his hands.
Only now did they find traces of him.
"Eight Tail Xue Family, 200 thousand Xue Family race troops have entered the city. What a coincidence … "
Using his mind to read the information within the talisman. Zong Shou's first feeling wasn't panic but wanting to laugh.
What should he say? The timing that the Xue Clan had chosen was a little too unfortunate. Were they sending themselves to death?
… However, to secretly surround Gantian Mountain. Xuanyuan Yiren and the people of Gantian Mountain made him feel uneasy.
To attack their own people, these Xue Family people were asking to die!
A dark and sharp expression flashed across his eyes. Zong Shou smiled and clenched his fist, smashing the few talismans into pieces!
"Xue Family, Tailing Sect …"
Muttering softly, Zong Shou stepped away once more. In just a moment, he returned to the sky above the deep underground lake.
Only to see that the Sky Demon Vast Habitat and Daoling Vast Habitat as well as the people of the various sects were all gone. Even Zifang was nowhere to be seen. Only Leidong and a few others were still here.
Ruotao was also here. After seeing him arrive, he immediately smiled and cupped his fists to Zong Shou, bowing deeply before leaving without any reluctance.
He was probably waiting for him here just for this bow to express his gratitude.
Zong Shou looked at Ruotao and smiled. He knew that the attitude of this Spiritual Sword was different from a few days ago. (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.)
