Within the stone cave that could be considered spacious, two five-colored streaks of light were circling around and struggling.
Their bodies twisted and turned like that of a giant python. However, no matter how they struggled, they were unable to break free from the restraints of Zong Shou's hands.
As time went on, they were slowly tamed and refined as they circled around his body.
Then, he sucked them in from his palm and merged them into his Chakra Meridians.
As usual, his skin cracked open and in a few minutes, it healed up.
At this moment, there were a full 12 Heaven Meridians circulating in Zong Shou's body.
The tyrannical martial intent caused his True Power to directly step over the threshold of the ninth level, entering the ninth level.
This was the so-called Spiritual Grandmaster of the Cloud World, the peak of the Heaven Realm that the outer region cultivators spoke of!
He used his Spiritual Sense to sense Heaven and Earth. He could feel that his Spiritual Sense and the four parts of his Spiritual Sense were becoming clearer and clearer.
A light flashed in Zong Shou's eyes and then he took out an item.
Instantly, a bright light shone all about, causing this dark stone cave to be as bright as day.
This was the Light Containing Sand that he used the Book of Universe rubbing to exchange for from the Demon Path cultivator a few months ago.
That day when he received this item, he didn't expect that he would be able to use it so early.
The intense battle with Prince Jia Mingluo day and night was much stronger and more comprehensive than the best Body Training Technique in the world.
As a result, he was able to enter the Ninth Stage two years earlier than expected.
A ball of crimson flame ignited with a 'whoosh' sound and began to burn the object.
After an entire hour, the sandstone that was only the size of a human finger was completely refined into a ball of crimson liquid.
Zong Shou took out several Spiritual Items and added in. Then, he condensed the liquid into the shape of a bead. Before this item cooled down, he used his Spiritual Sense to draw a Spiritual Formation within.
A moment later, this pearl that had swelled to the size of a Longan solidified.
At this moment, it was shining with a five-colored Spiritual Light. The pearl was jade colored and gave off a five-colored Spiritual Light.
Then, Zong Shou swallowed this five-colored pearl into his stomach.
It went all the way down to his Qi Sea.
Then, an explosive sound rang out, shaking the entire area. His senses toward the stars in the sky instantly became clearer.
The dozens of Spirit Veins that merged into Xiao Chen's body also seemed to have a core, gathering towards his dantian. Like dragons coiling around a pearl, they gathered in the sea of qi.
Zong Shou raised his eyebrows slightly, revealing a strange expression. Then, he began to calculate more carefully with his inner vision. In the end, the surprise in her starry eyes deepened.
The True Power in his body did not increase by much. However, the circulation of his inner breath was much smoother. With a core in his nine chakra meridians, he was able to move his True Power more freely.
With the same level of cultivation, he could use more power.
At this moment, the Jade Elixir was continuously gathering the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth in his body and transforming it into Internal Breath.
This was the power of the Light-containing Sand. The Magnificent Spirit Jade Marrow could strengthen a person's spiritual sense, and this Light-containing Sand could play the role of a martial artist's Golden Core.
It was said that all Martial Cultivators, after reaching the Immortal Realm, would be able to condense a pill in their Qi Sea.
It was where energy gathered. When the pill turned nine, one would be able to step into the God Realm!
At this moment, within his dantian, the Light-containing Bead made from the Light-containing Sand could be called a Fake Pill.
Although it was not as good as a true Golden Core, when a martial artist below the Celestial Realm got it, their combat strength would increase by 10-20%.
Who knows if the Sky Demon Vast Habitat knew that he wouldn't let Wuxuan off easily or if they really wanted to get close to him.
With a laugh, Zong Shou looked into his Soul Ocean.
Apart from the original Universe, Eon, Yin, Yang, Lightning, Thunder, Wind, Luck, Stack, Swallow, Purify, Illusion talismans, there were 12 Spiritual Restrictions. There were also Life and Death talismans.
A total of 14 were hanging between the Black and White Dharma. However, at this moment, outside of his Soul Ocean, there were many talisman patterns that were forming.
In a few more months, a brand new True Spiritual Talisman would be formed.
They were Spit and Spirit, two types of laws.
Spit and Swallow corresponded to one another. During these days, Zong Shou comprehended day and night and felt more and more.
Only by merging the seemingly useless laws of Heaven and Earth into his Dao Foundations could the Black and White Hole Dharma be truly perfected.
As for Spirit, everything had a spirit and it represented the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth. All those who focused on cultivating the soul to seek the Grand Dao of the universe called themselves Spirit Cultivators.
To Spirit Cultivators, these laws that were ever-changing and hard to grasp weren't something they couldn't lack. However, if he could form it, it would be of great help!
At this moment, Zong Shou was completing the 18 talismans.
With Long Ying as his master and also Cang Shengdao's many books. Zong Shou could take less detours than normal Spirit Masters.
Before a cultivator reached the Celestial Realm, the more talismans they could form, the better.
The more talismans they had, the more stable their Dao foundations would be.
However, the path after the Celestial Realm had to be filled with ideas. Merging these talismans together, those that weren't useful needed to be expelled.
At this time, due to the Dao foundations being stable. Be it choosing to give up or merging in new laws, it would use up large amounts of time.
This was why before the Spirit Realm, one had to be really careful and make preparations for what would happen thousands of years later.
For example, Long Ying admitted that because he took a wrong step, he was stuck at the peak of the Saint Realm for close to 6,000 years.
Luckily, the Merge and One laws could be easily changed and it didn't take up much time. This also allowed Long Ying to keep a chance to step into the End Realm.
Zong Shou also didn't know what kind of path he would walk in the future. Would the Black and White Hole Dharma be able to walk to the end?
However, it wouldn't be wrong to merge in more laws. At that time, it would be easier to give up than to come in.
Since he was so talented to be able to form 18 talismans, then he should make good use of it.
A moment later, his homework for the day was completed.
Observing his body, be it internal energy or soul power, they were all at their peak.
Even if he had to fight Prince Jia Mingluo for 10 days and 10 nights, he wouldn't be afraid!
Zong Shoxin was really eager to try. A thread of Spiritual Sense started to reach into the Heaven Gate above his head.
He could feel that the barrier was loosening.
Perhaps, he could forcefully break through the barrier of the heavens first?
He increased his strength once more, but then he felt that the blocking power became firm once more.
Zong Shou's brow rose up and he knew that he was still lacking a little.
Moreover, this time wasn't the right time. The battle was imminent and it wasn't wise to take the risk now.
To break through this barrier, he had to wait until his spiritual cultivation reached the peak of Grade-9.
After ending his cultivation, Zong Shou got up and left the cave. Walking along the passageway, they arrived at a barren cliff.
He saw that the sky was already dark and silent, the sunset glow was slowly dissipating.
Looking down, he saw groups of heavily-armored Night Demons walking out of the thick black mist and forming up 20 miles below the mountain. Their eyes were red and their fighting spirit was blazing.
Looking at the foot of the mountain, out of the hundreds of stone castles a few days ago, only 90 were left.
Even after a day of repairs, they were still really broken.
Zong Shou's expression turned serious and then he relaxed.
It was already the 6th night since that day. They said that it was 7 days, but tonight was the day of the final battle.
His body flashed and he flew 10,000 feet up to the peak of the mountain.
Only to see that everything here was already prepared. A hundred Grade-9 Energy Destroying Crossbows were transported over from Donglin and they were spread out on the surrounding few mountains.
The commander tent was nowhere to be seen, only a high platform was left.
There was a golden throne above, similar to the words of the Avici Throne.
Kong Yao was also dressed in golden heavy armor, a sword by her waist. She stood beside the throne, looking valiant and heroic.
That armor seemed to be made of gold, shining with a golden light. One could see it from far away.
Behind the golden chair was a 300-foot tall Gantian King Flag.
Beside it was also a flag. On the flag that was flying in the wind, there was a Kong word embroidered on it.
Zong Shou didn't show any courtesy, sitting down on the throne. Then, he was speechless, "Is there a need to be so exaggerated?"
Even the high platform under him was also golden. Naturally, it wasn't as extravagant as the Xiang King, but it was still 100 feet tall.
However, with that, it was really eye-catching. Even at night. Under the light of those illuminating crystals, it shone with a golden light, eye-piercing and visible for tens of miles.
One must know that recently when he was in Donglin, he had been promoting frugality.
"I don't dare to misuse military resources, it is just a layer of gold!"
Kong Yao glanced at Zong Shou. She remembered that when they first met, she felt that this Monster King was really extravagant.
However, recently, for some reason, he suddenly became poor.
"Since it is the final battle, how can I not have the intent to fight to the death? Since I personally destroyed the retreat path of the million-strong army, naturally, I have to have the heart to die with the enemy! If not, how can I convince them? Setting up this golden platform and wearing this golden armor is to tell the army that you and I are here! Kong Yao is here. Even if I die, I won't take a step back! "
The sword stabbed into the ground, giving off a solemn aura.
Zong Shou didn't pay attention, stepping on it. As expected, it was made of rough iron and wasn't worth much.
Looking at Kong Yao, that layer of heavy armor only looked good.
He instantly laughed. Then, he frowned as he looked into the sky.
The stars appeared, there were no clouds for 10,000 miles.
Who knows what the situation would be like tomorrow?
"I have calculated, within 10 days. This place will be under the blazing sun. Dozens of days ago, I asked my father and he said the same thing. My father has been in charge of the Imperial Astronomer for many years and rarely predicted wrong things. "
With just one look, she saw through Zong Shou's intentions. Kong Yao explained expressionlessly, "Just in case, I asked Mingdou and Liehe to take out 3,000 Grade-8 Mind Stones from the treasury to set up a formation. Be it the Night Demon Race trying to summon the clouds and rain, or the sudden change in weather, we can deal with it! "
Zong Shou's lips twitched. 3,000 Grade-8 Mind Stones? That was 300 Grade-9, half of Gantian Mountain's tax revenue this year …
Kong Yao smiled, her eyes filled with the joy of revenge, "When I use troops, I only want to be perfect. I don't think Ruler will object? "
Zong Shou was startled and speechless. He thought back to Prince Jia Mingluo's waist. After all, he was one of the Eight Princes of the Night Demon Race, so his wealth shouldn't be small, right?
Faintly, he was looking forward to it. (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.)
