Chapter 528: War descends

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

“Ahchoo!”

Within Gantian Mountain Hanyan palace, Zong Shou sneezed, suddenly waking up from his sleep.

He was feeling weird in his heart and couldn’t help but think: ‘What was happening today?’ With his cultivation and the fact that he hadn’t been feeling weak recently, he shouldn’t have contracted the flu. However, he was now sneezing constantly, were there just so many people thinking about him?

Speaking of which, many emotions were rising in his heart, unable to calm down. Should this be the Heart Sense that Martial Cultivators and Spirit Masters feel when they reach far into their cultivation?

The time he had been waiting for should have arrived.

In that instant, Zong Shou suddenly felt that the Dragon Blood hidden on his right arm abruptly sent a ripple. A vast external force that moved the surrounding spiritual energy started to shake.

It caused his soul ocean to also surge.

“It’s Aokun...”

This drop of True Dragon essence blood was from Aokun. At this moment, Zong Shou could feel that this drop of blood was changing.

... It somehow seemed to be rising in quality. The current Zong Shou found it harder to see the profound secrets within and could only roughly feel that this drop of Dragon Blood was becoming purer for some reason. It was changing into a pure gold color and was tugging the Heaven and Earth paths.

The aura that it gave out now even caused him to feel a little suppressed.

Zong Shou couldn’t help but raise his head as he looked towards the sky. Although this place was called his sleeping chambers, it wasn’t that long ago that he broke a hole in the roof. This was why the sky full of stars had no obstacles as it entered his eyes.

In actuality, since Aokun wasn’t in the Cloud World, then he wouldn’t naturally be in the sky. At this moment, he should be outside of the region in some world. However, Zong Shou just subconsciously did this action.

“This situation, should this mean that he broke through to the Saint Realm?”

He muttered silently, however, Zong Shou was really certain that the current Aokun had already become a saint...

He felt more and more weirder, what was that thing in the jade pearl that Chuxue spat out that day? Not only did it cause Aokun’s cultivation to return back to normal, it even let him improve.

However, such a question remained to be unanswered.

His heart had now calmed down. It was said that the Lingyun Sect ancestor was a middle-grade expert of the Saint Realm 3 thousand years ago.

Rumors have it that he had great dealing with a lot of people, and who knows? he might be able to usher in a helper or two.

However, it wasn’t that much of a worry. Dragon Shadow was a peak Martial Saint, based on what Hanfang said, he was half a step towards the End Realm. As long as his Heart Problem was solved, he would be able to pass the calamity. He should be able to deal with 3-5 people when the time comes.

As for the Daoming Sect, their ancestor should be at the God Realm. There were also 2 of them, one was a Peak God Realm expert whilst the other was still at the initial stage. The Mysterious Cloud Spirit Sect also had a Peak God Realm expert...

Although he spent around 50-60 years in the God Emperor game, it was sad to say that he didn’t understand much of the top experts of the era.

These news were all given by the Common People’s Path. It shouldn’t be wrong... right?

At most, he would just invite people from the Common People’s Path to help him.

Retracting his thoughts, Zong Shou held the broken Tan sword in his hand, with really calm thoughts, almost as if there weren’t any at all. He tried to merge with the Heaven and Earth. Following which, he stabbed forward.

The sword stance he used was ordinary and nothing special, just a simple forward stab. However, at this moment, within the sleeping chambers, a heavy wind rose up.

Behind Zong Shou, Two Dragon Shadows appeared. However, this time he was trying to merge them into one.

Right as they were about to merge, a Six Claw Dragon was about to form, it suddenly twisted and then exploded out.

Zong Shou was originally controlling it, restricting the sword energy at the tip, however, this also exploded and shot all about.

The room which was already in ruins was being destroyed into an even worse state.

Wherever the wind passed, everything was leveled out into flat land! Even the houses thousands of miles out weren’t safe.

Luckily, apart from Ruoshui who was guarding nearby, there was no one around and there weren’t any casualties.

“As expected... it still can’t work!”

Zong Shou sighed and looked at the broken Tan sword in his hand. He knew that he couldn’t continue training. The sword needed time to recuperate and recover, if he wouldn’t let it, then even its magical treasure material quality couldn’t take it.

During these two months, he had been studying and researching. The battle against Yuan Wushang revealed many of his weaknesses. Zong Shou wasn’t satisfied with his Nine True Dragon Sword to be only able to be casted by using the stacking method. After digesting what he comprehended during that battle, Zong Shou started to try to truly merge the Nine Dragon Sword together.

From the roughest point, he tried to merge the Lightning Dragon Sword and the Vast Fire Dragon Sword, both of which he was most familiar with together.

The medium he used was the energy of the Absolute Beginning! When he witnessed the core of the absolute beginning...

The universe came from one spot and will end at one spot. He just needed to use the Absolute Beginning to deduce it.

Although he tried several times, all of which happened to end in failure, however, the more he tried, the clearer he felt that he was on the right path.

This path was also suitable for his One O1rigin Sword Technique...

At this moment, he had faced a bottleneck. Continuing on like this wasn’t a solution. Zong Shou also didn’t have plans to change his techniques.

He settled himself down and looked at his soul.

Within his soul ocean, there were numerous more True Spiritual Charms. Ever since the Heaven and Earth Words merged into the Universe Word, the empty talisman spot was replaced with the word, ‘Death’.

He didn’t use the ‘Ming’ word that he thought about using previously but instead used this ‘Death’ word.

It was only because this word could best describe the laws of death. It would also help the Yin and Yang talismans which had signs of merging together.

Moving the two talismans to their extremes would be one.

One gives birth to two, two to three, three to... and so on, to every living being.

The two referred to Yin and Yang, it was Taichi and also the Great Path, its position was on the same level as the Universe and the Eon.

The Ultimate gave rise to Taichi, the Taichi to the Yin and Yang, and then to everything else.

Next, it would be the five elements which could return into one.

This ‘one’ wasn’t a word but, instead, a picture that couldn’t be described by words and writing.

One could call it the Ultimate and also the Absolute Beginning, The Source, The Grand Beginning, The Start, etc...

Unfortunately, Zong Shou was still unable to learn about its mysteries. He was just too far away from the day of merging them into one.

However, he was now already preparing for the ‘Life’ word to go opposite of Death. This was another path that was close to Heaven and Earth itself.

Next, there was a combination of a word that he had formed dozens of True Spiritual Charms in his Soul Ocean to prepare for the future.

However, at this moment when he looked at his soul, it wasn’t for those newly formed True Spiritual Charms.

With a thought, Two True Spiritual Talismans appeared between the Black and White holes, shining very brightly.

Along with a thought rising up, the ‘Swallow’ and ‘Purify’ words were perfecting at a shocking rate.

When the last Spiritual Charm was added in, the Two True Spiritual Talismans shone a golden-colored glow. Numerous spiritual patterns spread all over, connecting even tighter with the other talismans.

However, most of it was tightly linked with the Black and White holes.

The entire process took just a few breaths. The two talismans formed and Zong Shou really easily stepped over into grade-8.

His Soul Ocean instantly expanded, this time it actually stretched within his soul, affecting every corner and showed no signs of stopping.

If it was the previous Zong Shou with a broken soul, it would have definitely exploded immediately. However, at this moment with the vast Soul Power supporting, it constantly swelled outwards.

Only until his soul increased by a full time did it slowly stop.

Throughout the entire process, Zong Shou showed no weird expression at all, calmly waiting on the spot.

It was just so calm and peaceful with no signs and nothing abnormal happening as he stepped into the realm of a grade-8 Spirit Master.

The current him was grade-8 body forming!

He placed his fingers together and pointed out, his True Qi instantly shot out from his fingers and merged with his Soul Power. An energy sword formed in mid-air.

...Spirit and martial arts were merging into one!

Although he didn’t use a sword, because of the True Qi he had after merging with one Heaven Vein and the grade-8 Soul Power, the strength of his Sword Qi was stronger than two months ago.

If at this moment, he had a battle with Yuan Wushang, that maniac wouldn’t be able to escape from his hands.

A more valuable thing was that he didn’t need to look forward to it, he could cast this merger at any moment he wanted.

Although that day was really dangerous, he gained a lot after that experience.

Giving a satisfied smile, Zong Shou rode the sword into the air and flew outside of the city, rushing to the camp in the north. After 10 miles out, he didn’t feel anything weird, however, once he got close, a vast vital energy glow was gathered together and charged right into the heavens.

High-grade spirit masters of Gantian Mountain used a spiritual formation to cover these weird phenomenons.

If not, these 4 thousand Blood Cloud Cavalry couldn’t be hidden at all.

This time, Zong Shou suddenly had an idea to run over alone. The Blood Cloud Cavalry weren’t gathered together to wait but instead were split into 10 units. A portion of them were scattered around the camp to cultivate.

Zong Shou specially invited Mingdou and Liehe to gather a few Dragon Veins in this spot, it was so that the Blood Cloud Cavalry could obtain enough spiritual energy.

There was a portion who were in the valley nearby that was still training how to form up and charge.

The moment Zong Shou’s sword light landed, Yin Yang hurried over. Beside him, apart from the few commanders of the Blood Cloud Cavalry, there was one more person, it was Ling Xueyun.

“Ruler, why did you suddenly run over?”

Seeing Zong Shou not reply and sweep his eyes all over them solemnly, Yin Yang directly said, “4,350 people! 600 of them had just joined for just a month. They aren’t that familiar with the Blood Cavalry kill sutra. Their formation battling skills are really rusty. However, if they are just following to charge formations, there is no need to worry!”

He looked towards Ling Xueyun at the side, “With senior Ling personally teaching martial arts, we have learned a lot. Even I felt that my Martial Path has improved...”

At this moment, Ling Xueyun was feeling really complicated. Till now, he still remembered the shock and awe in his heart when Zong Shou brought him over to see the gathered Blood Cloud Cavalry.

This Monster King was really generous and open and didn’t hide anything from him. He also knew that there was actually no need for him to hide anything from him.

That was because even if the Lingyun Sect knew they couldn’t escape, they would just be chased out of Donglin...

At this point, he knew that he had underestimated this ruler. Instead, he felt amused by the Lingyun and Mysterious Cloud Spirit Sect, he couldn’t help but feel really tragic for them...

At this moment, Zong Shou was looking at the direction of Pill Spirit Mountain, for some reason, his heart was unable to calm down.

It should be about to begin. As expected, they were going to move on to Yiren...
