"Heaven Barrier?"
Zong Shou sighed, retracting his spiritual sense and not looking into his body.
The earth gate of the barriers from heaven had been broken open by him. What was left was the Gate of Heaven that was above his head.
If he didn't break this barrier, there would always be a layer between him and Heaven and Earth, unable to truly step into the Spirit Realm.
However, looking closely, he noticed that he had underestimated this layer.
The barriers from heaven was seen by the cultivation world as the body that couldn't cultivate. As expected, it wasn't without reason.
To break through, one's own accumulations had to reach a shocking level. Based on what he knew, there were only a few people in the Cloud World who cultivated with the barriers from heaven. Most of them used external strength to break through this barrier and step into the Spirit Realm.
However, even then, their foundations were still really thick, far exceeding cultivators of the same grade.
This was because they all left the Cloud World after entering the Spirit Realm. As for what would happen in the future, he didn't know.
However, looking at how the sects these few people were in and how proud they were of them, one could see that their achievements were extraordinary.
If he wanted to break through, with his current achievements, he was still a little lacking.
Thinking about that, Zong Shou reached out with his hand, taking a green-blue, amber-like spiritual liquid into his hand.
This was the Magnificent Spirit Jade Marrow. It merged into his fingers and slowly seeped into his body.
The Magnificent Spirit Jade Marrow could cause one's body to be more compatible with Heaven and Earth, purifying one's spiritual sense.
It could allow one to grasp some abilities that only Spirit Realm cultivators had before entering the Spirit Realm.
In the hands of cultivators like him who had barriers from heaven, it was a top treasure.
When he was in the Third Dragon Hall, Zong Shou took a large ball. He used it once every 10 days and till now, he had only used 10%.
Today, he had already used 13 drops. However, moments later, Zong Shou helplessly shook his head.
This item was still useful to him, but the effect was already really small. Today, the changes in his spiritual sense were pretty much undetectable. The weakening of the 'membrane' within the Heavenly Gate was similarly minimal.
It seemed like he could throw this thing to Xuanyuan Yiren to see what kind of pill she could refine.
Ruoshui, Zong Yuan and the rest were currently charging towards rank eight. Something like this could actually be used.
As for his Heavenly Barrier, he couldn't rush it. He could just accumulate it slowly.
He had the Book of Eon and he already had a huge advantage over others. He still had forty to fifty years left in his lifespan, so he didn't need to worry for the time being.
Thinking of this, Zong Shou smiled and temporarily put aside the heavy burden in his heart. He then went back to the remnant Book of Universe.
First, he took out over a hundred purple-gold papers, and then a bottle of black liquid.
The paper was made from the silk of a kind of hundred-year-old Purple Gold Silkworm. Only those large sects of the Spiritual Palace Realm and above could raise it. It was an excellent material for making talismans. Only three hundred or so were produced in the world every year. It was so expensive that it made one's hair stand on end.
However, the ones in Zong Shou's hands were stolen.
As for the black liquid, it was the so-called Spirit Ink, and it was no different from what Symbol Masters used.
If one had to say what was different, it would be that the ink was mixed with Saint Realm Knowledge.
There were many Spiritual Houses in the Cloud World, and there were too many Mysterious Books to mention. Zong Shou couldn't allow Ao Kun's blood to be spread to the outside world. However, the blood of the Spiritual Salamander was enough.
Comparing the remnant book of the Universe Creation Records, Zong Shou meticulously copied it.
It took him more than ten days to copy the pages of three books.
At this moment, although he wanted to continue, the materials in his hands weren't enough.
Looking closely at these pages, Zong Shou laughed and tore open the remnant book in his hands. It was split into dozens of pages and bound together with the other pages of the book.
With that, it split into four, becoming four remnant Book of Universe.
However, Zong Shou's book copying ability wasn't much. The four books all looked terrible. Some of the true meanings contained in the books could not be completely copied.
However, he had an ulterior motive. Those who would ask him for this remnant book weren't thinking about the contents of the book, but the person who copied it.
To track his tracks, a few remnant pages were enough. More would be useless. Those few people would definitely be able to understand.
Zong Shou couldn't help but smile in anticipation. He was embarrassingly short on money now. He hoped that he could use these few books to get some money from these rich people. After all, he spent a lot of money to copy.
Splitting it into four wouldn't offend anyone. If not, it wouldn't be good to give this remnant Book of Universe to anyone.
Oh right, there were two heads hidden in his bag? They would definitely be able to be sold for a good price …
Keeping the Book of Eon, Zong Shou smiled and stepped out of his room. The moment he walked out, a few message talismans were already in his hands.
Using his Spiritual Sense to take a look, his lips curled up coldly. What a coincidence. He had just come out of seclusion and completed the copying work and these few people had already arrived.
How many days had it been since the Yin Dragon Canyon matter ended? It seems like these people really couldn't wait.
He walked confidently and stepped into the void. In just a moment, Zong Shou was already in the sky above Gantian Mountain.
He saw that the other few people were already waiting here. One of them was Wuji who he met in Yin Dragon Canyon. Ten Thousand Buddha Vast Habitat's Zifang was also here. The third person was covered in a layer of black mist. Although it was a blazing sun, it still surged and didn't stop. He was most probably from the Demon Sect.
As for the fourth person, his body was filled with a cold aura. With such an aura, without needing to think, there was a 90% chance that he came from the Kenzō Sect.
The fifth person was dressed in a green scholar's shirt. He looked really scholarly and was filled with a scholarly aura.
Zong Shou's eyes squinted. Then, he didn't bother much as he walked over.
There were actually 5 customers. That was surprising. Then it would depend on which of the 5 sides would give a higher price.

West of Donglin, a bustling port. Only to see that within the mist, there were thousands of ships racing.
Pretty much every moment, there were dozens of cloud ships entering and exiting the port, sailing into the vast cloud ocean. The port was also really busy, goods were piled up into mountains. Countless people were busying themselves with their tasks.
At noon, a three-story ship slowly sailed into the port. Compared to the close to a thousand ships docked here, it was really unassuming. It was really normal. At most, the decorations were a little exquisite.
However, at the side of the ship, there was a Kong word mark. The place where it docked wasn't a civilian dock but within the military port.
"This is Rainbow City?"
Kong Rui walked down the stairs from the ship, his eyes filled with shock as he looked over.
He knew that in the past, the most prosperous port in Donglin Cloud Continent was Taoyun City which was also in the west.
However, since Zong Shou unified Donglin Cloud Continent. This earliest port city directly under Gantian Mountain also started to prosper. It was a huge city in Donglin Cloud Continent that wasn't any weaker than Gantian Mountain.
Although he knew that this city was huge, he didn't expect it to be so prosperous.
Looking out from the ship, there were many people. He realized that it wasn't just because there were a lot of people. Beyond the orderly warehouse area, he could see a magnificent building.
Even Taishang, which had a 1700-year history, had less than 10 cities that could compare to it. Some were even worse.
"Greetings Country Father-in-Law!"
The moment he walked down the stairs, someone came up to welcome him. It should be the officials of Rainbow City, but there were only a few of them. Their etiquette was perfect, but their expressions were neither arrogant nor humble.
They didn't try to get close to him, but their words were filled with enough respect.
Kong Rui only felt a chill in his heart. It seemed like his daughter's situation in Gantian Mountain wasn't too good.
If she was really loved by the ruler, these officials wouldn't treat his arrival so casually.
The moment he stepped down from the ladder and landed on the ground below, Kong Rui was in a trance again.
This was Donglin Cloud Continent. In this life, he could only stay on this land.
He probably wouldn't be able to return home in this life.
After being distracted for a moment, Kong Rui bowed towards the other party, "Thank you for welcoming me, Kong Rui thanks you!"
Out of the few people, the one at the head dodged to the side, smiling awkwardly, "I don't dare! I am Weiyuan, the current prefect of Rainbow City. Today, Country Father-in-Law has arrived, so I should have welcomed you with great gifts. However, something cropped up in the city. Most of the people in my magistrate's office have been sent out. Please don't blame me for my lack of manners. "
Kong Rui half believed and half doubted, looking at this person's eyes which were filled with anxiousness like something really happened in the city.
He also calmed down. It seemed like even if his daughter wasn't really loved, she didn't lose power.
Then, he looked curiously at this person who called himself the Rainbow City Prefect.
Was he really the Rainbow City Prefect? However, why was it that this official's attire was not much different from the people behind him?
To be able to govern such a large city, his status should not be much lower than that of the Imperial Capital's governor.
That was a Primary Grade 3 High Official who could aim for the position of Prime Minister. This person's position in Gantian Mountain should be similar.
But why did he look like that? Looking at the official robe on him, the material used was really simple. The style was not bad, giving off a clean and clean aura. However, there were no other decorations.
"This is to save money …"
Weiyuan seemed to have seen through Kong Rui's doubts, giving out a self-mocking laugh, "At the start, it was the ruler's idea to not let us treat ourselves as officials and not let us feel too good about ourselves. Then, the prime minister felt that the cost of the robe was huge and there was no need. Thus, he followed the ruler's wishes and crossed it out. "
Kong Rui was slightly startled and knew that the prime minister that Weiyuan mentioned should be Renbo.
His name was something that they had heard of within the Imperial Capital. In the past, there were people who praised him, but recently his reputation wasn't that good.
Looking at it now, this pair of Ruler and Minister really wasn't a normal betrayal of the Dao … If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
