The purple energy wrapped around Zong Shou's fingertip but he was unable to keep it into his body.
The reason for that was because his body was already filled with Divine Spirit Energy, and he was unable to absorb any more of it.
After killing Zigui that day, he still couldn't do anything to the Blue Fire Xuan Turtle.
In the end, he could only use a thicker ice layer to freeze it and then use dozens of Mountain Suppressing Talismans to suppress it. Then, he tossed it into a Space Artifact that he snatched.
It was slightly bigger than the Lingjie Ring and had ten thousand feet of space which could fit it.
As for this Blue Fire Xuan Turtle, it was barely sealed by him.
Then, he killed several groups of Taoist Faction Cultivators above the Cloud Ocean and outside the Void World.
Only when those scattered Saint Fire Silver Ants couldn't find any traces of Taoist Faction Spirit Realm Cultivators did he return to the Central Cloud Continent.
During these few days, Zong Shou spent most of his time searching various temples that belonged to the Jade Clear faction.
As expected, he found many along the way. Often the bigger the city, the more believers there were. The more God Power he could extract from the statues, the more God Power he could absorb.
Although there were only a million people here, due to it being close to Daoling Vast Habitat, there were many believers and they were all really devout.
This was why the God Power that was extracted was not only thick but also pure.
Unfortunately, his body was only able to absorb three-quarters of it before it couldn't take in any more.
On Hanxi's side, it was still the same, swallowing God Cores each time. It would turn into a cocoon and digest for a while.
However, the time was getting shorter and shorter and the effects were undetectable.
Originally, there were 12 Silver Ants and now there were 18 of them. Its shell and blade arms were strengthened to the point that they were close to Spirit Realm. Its speed had also greatly increased.
As for Hanxi's main body, there weren't many changes. Only the Spiritual Patterns on the surface of its shell became more and more obvious. It was both concise and complicated, looking really mysterious.
The Saint Silver Flames were even more pure, bright and beautiful.
Although there were threads of vengeful energy rising up, they were unable to get close to the two of them.
Zong Shou's Sword Intent was too strong which caused the Evil Demons to be unable to get close. Hanxi's body shone with a silver light and flames wrapped around it. The moment the vengeful energy got close, it would be totally purified.
"So this God Power Body Tempering isn't without a limit …"
The reason he stood there in a daze just now was not purely because he was lost in thought. Instead, he was waiting for his body to "digest" part of the God Spirit's power stored in his body.
However, after a full hour, he was still unable to absorb the wisp of purple gas lingering on his fingertip.
From the looks of it, it wasn't that he didn't have enough 'space' in his body. Instead, he had truly reached his limit.
Actually, if he thought about it, it made sense. If he could continue to devour the power of the gods without any restrictions, wouldn't it be easy for him to become invincible?
In this world, there was no such thing as ascending to the heavens in a single bound.
After pondering for a moment, Zong Shou decided to let go of the purple gas. He allowed this sliver of God Power to dissipate into the air.
At this moment, the entire city was still silent.
Most of the people in the city closed their doors and did not come out. It was clearly daytime, but there was not a single person on the streets, as if it was a ghost town.
The cultivators and spirit masters all around were either wary or filled with animosity. Those who thought they were hidden all looked over with their spiritual sense. Only a small number of people tried their best to retract their auras, afraid that Zong Shou would notice.
Zong Shou was originally too lazy to bother about these low-grade cultivators and was also not willing to attack them. However, he couldn't allow them to offend him.
He spread out his spiritual sense and those annoying spiritual senses were swept clean. There was no one who could continue to spy on him.
Laughing coldly, Zong Shou walked towards the east. With a few steps, he was dozens of miles out and out of the city.
Just a few minutes later, he arrived at a mountain peak that was floating in mid-air.
This was Cuiming Peak, a mid-sized sect under Daoling Vast Habitat, where the Killing Star Sect was located.
Half of the mountain peak was sliced off and a talisman formation was drawn, causing it to turn upside down and float 70,000 feet above.
Star power was injected in. Although there were no Dragon Veins gathered here, the spiritual energy was extremely strong.
However, the abundance of spiritual energy was also really strong, just below that of shrines and spiritual houses.
However, at this moment, this Cuiming Peak was empty, there was no one at all.
Zong Shou used his spiritual sense to search and in the end, he helplessly retracted it.
Not only was there no one, but there weren't even any valuable items.
Looking at the situation here, it definitely wasn't because he had stayed in the city for too long. It was because this place had been abandoned 3 days ago.
This wasn't the first case he had faced. Since he killed those Taoist Sect Spirit Realm cultivators who returned from Donglin and returned to the Central Cloud Continent. It was the same for more than ten sects.
These Taoist Sect Sects didn't care about their face anymore. No longer willing to hold fast to the ground, wherever he passed, there would be Wherever he went, all the sects decisively gave up. The disciples of the sect also scattered and hid outside.
No matter how Zong Shou wreaked havoc, they weren't willing to show their heads. They were even more shameless than that Blue Fire Xuan Turtle.
At this moment, even someone as determined as him felt a sense of powerlessness.
It was like a fist hitting cotton, unable to exert strength. There was no way to solve such a situation.
Looking at the sky with his arms behind his back, Zong Shou was in deep thought once more. If he retreated, he wouldn't be willing, but if he advanced, it would be useless. Maybe he should consider returning.
Thinking about it seriously, Zong Shou shook his head. Before he retreated, he had one last thing that he needed to complete.
He wanted to take a step forward, but then he felt the space around twist.
Zong Shou's brow furrowed, surprise appearing in his eyes.
When this aura came over, his spiritual sense didn't react at all.
Just as he was thinking about this, he saw Shui Lingbo break open the Cloud World barrier and appear in front of him.
Her face was cold and expressionless, showing no intentions of getting close to him.
Zong Shou found it weird, his pupils constricted. It wasn't one person who came here, but two!
The moment such a thought rose up, threads of seven-colored light gathered in front of him, Spiritual Energy wrapped around it.
In just a moment, a twenty-year-old Taoist appeared. He looked really young, his face was like white jade, dressed in Taoist attire and holding a horsetail whisk. He gave one the feeling that he was like an ice jade covered in smoke, ethereal and out of the world, like a dream.
"I am Yuanmeng, greetings Ruler!"
That person looked up and down Zong Shou before expressionlessly bowing.
In the next instant, a vast and boundless Spiritual Sense suppression spread across Cuiming Peak.
Shui Lingbo nodded her head, "Long time no see, Ruler how have you been? Shui Lingbo greets you! "
Zong Shou's right hand instinctively grabbed his sword. He went up against Yuanmeng's Spiritual Sense and looked towards this person.
This was God Realm?
Yuanmeng? He had never heard of such a person in his last life.
Even in the virtual world, he wasn't worthy of knowing his name.
If it was as he expected, this was the God Realm Cultivator who suppressed Daoling Vast Habitat.
Although it was just an image formed thousands of miles away. That vast aura still made one's heart tremble.
However, he was too lazy to return the greeting. Zong Shou forcefully went up against that suppressive gaze and exchanged glances with him. Then, he grinned, "I remember that the Taoist Faction and I won't rest until one of us dies?"
Yuanmeng frowned, like he also felt that it was tough to force Zong Shou to submit with just a Spiritual Sense. He looked towards Shui Lingbo, who said expressionlessly, "I am here for other matters. I coincidentally bumped into you today, so I came over to be a witness. If Senior Yuanmeng wants me to mediate between your two sides, then please find someone else. "
Zong Shou felt weird when he heard that. What was going on with the two of them?
He heaved a sigh of relief. Looking at Shui Lingbo's situation, Cang Shengdao didn't look like he was controlled by Daoling Vast Habitat.
Yuanmeng scoffed coldly, like he was really unhappy. In the end, he didn't say anything, directly speaking towards Zong Shou.
"If Ruler is willing to return to Gantian Mountain and not step into the Central Continent within 3 months. Our Taoist Faction can also promise that within 3 years, we won't attack the civilians of Donglin Cloud Continent and Huizhou Island! "
There was no questioning tone at all, his tone was firm like he had already decided on that.
Zong Shoxin was so furious that he was amused. This Yuanmeng was really interesting.
Within 3 years, they wouldn't attack the civilians of Donglin Cloud Continent and Huizhou Island. Just 3 years, and the promise didn't include Zong Shou.
Actually, if he could let the people under Gantian Mountain escape from the battle between him and the Taoist Faction, it would be a good thing.
However, the time was just too short. The battle between him and the Taoist Faction would take tens of millions of years. Within it, it didn't include what Zong Shou wanted the most.
Apart from that, Yuanmeng's tone and expression made one feel really annoyed.
There was no smile on his face, his gaze like a blade.
"Then what if I am not willing to return?"
"If Ruler has any conditions, you can raise them."
Yuanmeng seemed to have expected that Zong Shou would ask such a question, shaking his head without much care.
"However, in my eyes, it is best if Ruler agrees. For tens of thousands of years, no one who offended my Dao Sect has survived to this day. Even if the Ruler is the most talented person in the Cloud World in these ten thousand years, invincible in the world. You won't be able to take the wrath of our Taoist Faction! "
Zong Shou smiled, acting like he didn't hear Yuanmeng's threat.
"If you want me to leave, I can! 39,000 Grade-9 Mind Stones to compensate the millions of people who died. Within 30 years, you can't harm the civilians under my rule! Lastly, hand over all those who participated in the slaughter of my people and let Gantian Mountain deal with them! "
When he heard the first condition, Yuanmeng's eyes opened wide. The last sentence was filled with rage.
"Preposterous!"
That intent suppression became sharper and sharper, "As the Ruler of a country, you really don't know your limits! I can make the decision to give you 5,000 Grade-9 Mind Stones. However, it can't be considered compensation, but charity. The second condition can be shortened to 10 years. Within 10 years, we won't offend each other. As for the last one, I can act like I didn't hear it. If Ruler agrees, then you can scram … "
When he heard that, Zong Shou's hand that was holding the sword had green veins popping out. Then, he calmed down and smiled expressionlessly.
