Half a day later, Yin Yang, who had gone to who knows where, finally returned. He brought a few huge bags with food, clothing, spices, etc. It was enough for a few years. However, his face was dark and sunken, several times worse than when he left.
Returning to the carriage, he didn't hide anything for the first time. He called Chu Xue into the carriage and directly said it in front of Zong Shou.
"After hiding it for so many days, the situation is so dangerous. Yin Yang doesn't dare to hide it from the prince. Actually, there has been no news from the ruler for several months. I went to find people to investigate and they said that half a month ago, someone personally witnessed the ruler being forced into the Oblivion Cloud Ocean. "
There was a light clanging sound in the carriage. Chu Xue accidentally knocked over the teacup beside her, her face devoid of blood.
Zong Shou's eyes squinted, not saying a word.
He was currently in the Donglin Cloud Continent of the Cloud World, floating above the cloud ocean. 12 million miles around, it was one of the 5 largest continents of the Cloud World.
The Oblivion Cloud Ocean was south of this Donglin Cloud Continent. Ancient legends said that there were many mysterious places here. Be it man or beast, they would definitely die if they entered.
Ten thousand years later, the mysteries of this place were discovered by people. However, at this time, this Oblivion Cloud Ocean was still a death zone.
Especially before spiritual energy exploded out, apart from those ancient people in the Cloud World, no one could enter deep.
It was no wonder that his cousin had such guts. Entering the Oblivion Cloud Ocean, one's chances of survival were slim.
Chu Xue calmed herself down, gritting her teeth and insisting, "It is just the Oblivion Cloud Ocean. With the ruler's ability, he might be able to come out from there!"
Yin Yang expressionlessly looked at her and didn't bother, "The ruler isn't someone with a short lifespan. Yin Yang knows about his methods. The problem is the battle for the Gantian Mountain throne. The few brothers and nephews of the ruler are all ambitious people. For example, that Zong Yu … "
Chu Xue held her breath and didn't argue, furrowing her brows, "Isn't it just fighting for that Gantian Mountain Master position? If worse comes to worst, Young Master will not be the Crown Prince! "
"But if we can't borrow the strength of Gantian Mountain, how will the prince deal with the few enemies of the ruler?" Yin Yang laughed coldly, his fists clenched tight, his eyes filled with cold killing intent.
"I, Yin Yang, am a man of my words. I promised the ruler that I would protect the prince for the rest of his life and let him inherit the position of Gantian Mountain Monster king. Even if he were to die without a burial place, he would not be willing to break his oath! In short, they couldn't stay here any longer. Before the Monarch left, he ordered us to escort the Crown Prince to the Lingyun Sect. Now that he thought about it, he should have expected this. As long as he arrived at Dan Ling Mountain a day earlier, he would be safe! The Elixir Spirit Mountain had strict rules, unlike Linhai College. This trip will be even more dangerous, so please be mentally prepared, Your Highness! "
Chuxue heaved a sigh of relief, following which hesitation appeared in her eyes, "Leave now? Just now, Young Master and I met Zong Yu. Li Ling and Li Du were both there. Who knows, maybe his Senior Brothers also participated … "
Before he finished speaking, Yin Yang waved his sleeves and forcefully interrupted him, "Right now, it's only Zong Yu and the Li brothers. In a few days, those people with evil intentions will come after hearing the news. It will be even harder to step out of Twisted Gathering! "
His words didn't allow anyone to doubt him. When Yin Yang did things, he was swift and decisive. She immediately got up and walked out of the carriage.
Chu Xue's expression changed. Only when the carriage rose into the air did she say with a dejected expression, "It was Xue 'er who harmed young master! If I knew that this would happen, I would have let Young Master stay in Linhai College. "
Zong Shou had totally gotten over it, smiling like it had nothing to do with him. On the contrary, he was a little worried about Chu Xue.
His father asked people to bring him out of Linhai College at such a time. He probably thought that the college's strength was far from enough to protect him. From this, one could see how strong the enemy was.
Zong Shou didn't care much about the position of Prince. He also thought about giving it up and letting his cousins fight for it.
However, hearing Yin Yang's words, it didn't seem like a good plan. Apart from taking the risk to escape to Pill Spirit Mountain, there was no other way out.
Anyways, he couldn't avoid walking on the tip of a knife.
In comparison, he cared more about the identity of his father.
This Gantian Mountain was once one of the shrines of the Monster Race. After the spiritual energy exploded, it still ruled the west of Donglin Cloud Continent, millions of Monster Race.
He only remembered that in these few decades, Gantian Mountain had many different Monster Kings.
There weren't any outstanding people amongst them. And those heroes who appeared one after another in the Divine Emperor's era were too dazzling.
As such, this Gantian Mountain became a blind spot in his memory. He didn't even know the names of those few Monster Kings.
Not to mention the people before the God Emperor era.
During these few days, he barely remembered that ten thousand years ago in the Cloud World, there was a Sky Fox Zong Family that was really famous.
However, without new clues, it was hard to tell which demon monarch his' father 'was.
Chu Xue still sat at the side, frowning. Zong Shou's brows furrowed, silently taking out a Willow Talisman Knife. Like a butterfly, it spun at his fingertips. It was as thin as a cicada's wing but had a lot of weight. It gave off a totally different feeling from the Ironwood Flying Knife.
On the body of the knife, the talismans carved were similar to the Pine Pattern Wind Sword he bought. One was Speed, the other was Sharpness.
When the knife shot out, it would be even faster and the tip of the knife would be even sharper. If one had to talk about what was different, it would be that after thirteen thousand years, it had been improved. The effect was far above that of this era.
Apart from that, some lines were added. It was totally useless, but it wouldn't affect the effect and make it hard for one to see the true mysteries of the talisman.
Just as the talisman knife was in his hand, Zong Shou could feel that the Spirit Blacksmith of the Treasure Weapon Pavilion was really extraordinary. The length was exactly the same, and the amount of Blood Copper added was just right. It was like many blood vessels that were distributed within the knife. The Spiritual Energy patterns on the knife body were also perfect.
He continued to spin it until the shape, center of gravity, weight, and thickness of the knife were all clear to his chest. Only then did the flying knife glow suddenly stop.
This was also one of the key points of the Six Gods Defensive Knife Technique. If one didn't know the flying knife like the back of one's hand, If one didn't have the complete knowledge of the knife, how could one shoot out a knife that could take one's life and soul?
The best method was to personally craft it. However, the current conditions weren't realistic, so he could only make do with it.
The handle was facing outwards, the tip was facing inwards, facing his palm. Zong Shou held it like that, closing his eyes and sitting quietly. Threads of True Qi were injected into the body of the knife, and then through the Red Copper veins, it circulated from within.
At this moment, apart from the Foundation Chakra and Energy Ocean, which had opened up four acupoints each. On his right arm and left chest, there were five brighter spots, independent of the Nine Chakra Meridians.
These were the extra acupoints outside the meridians, of the wind element. In the medical books of the future, they were named as Lingchi, Luantai, Fengxia, True Light, and Guanfeng. After the four Foundation Chakra acupoints were opened. The essence energy that was taken out from the green crystal was used by Zong Shou to attack these five extra acupoints.
At this moment, not only were these acupoints opened up, but they were also filled with True Qi converted from the Wind Beast essence energy. The amount of True Qi stored in each extra acupoint far exceeded the Qi that was circulating in the Foundation Chakra.
This was also a special technique that he found in the future, opening up extra acupoints to increase one's strength.
The Six God Defensive Knife Technique used Qi to drive the knife, using Spirit to nourish the blade.
He was far from being able to do the latter. However, with the True Qi stored in these five extra acupoints, he could barely do the former, using Qi to drive the knife.
Threads of True Qi were continuously injected into the cycle. In just a moment, Zong Shou had a spiritual sense connection with the knife in his hand.
He stopped there and changed to another flying knife. With his current realm, it was impossible for him to use Spirit to nourish the knife and control it as he wished.
In less than an hour, the Cloud Crossing Carriage had already passed through the Twisted Spirit Gathering and was once again speeding through the wilderness.
The scenery outside the window flashed by, and a few people standing on a hill in the distance jumped into his field of vision.
Feeling a piercing pain at the center of his brows, Zong Shou placed down the knife in his hand and looked out of the window.
"It's Zong Yu and the Li Brothers. Oh? Xue, do you know who that person is? "
Beside Zong Yu, an old man appeared. His face was wrinkled, and he carried a long sword on his body. His hands were like bird claws.
Chu Xue had noticed the people outside long before he did. At this moment, her pupils had shrunk to the size of a needle.
"That is Wu Wei, Burning Sword Wu Wei!"
