Chapter 564 - Advancing a Grade

Chapter 564: 562 Advancing a Grade

“This is... the Book of Eon Extreme Life?”

On the cover of the book were the five big words, Book of Eon Extreme Life!

Zong Shou touched it with his hand. This body was formed by his mind and wasn’t a physical body. However, the moment he came into contact with it, he could feel a cold intent spreading out from it.

Huge amounts of information rushed into his brain, making him feel a little dizzy. He felt that it was extremely profound and mysterious, just like when he witnessed the world open up on the World Viewing Platform.

Who knows how long passed before Zong Shou finally adapted. His eyes were filled with shock.

This book’s understanding and explanations of time were really complete!

The understandings he had touched were the most rough and shallow portions, but this was really detailed and involved all laws.

The universe and time were four dimensions, this time plane was like a line, from the absolute beginning until the end. All the paths, all the laws were related to it.

At this moment, the information injected into his soul ocean would take dozens of years to digest

Thinking carefully, at this moment he deduced many things.

The core of the absolute beginning, the two black and white holes, and also this Book of Eon Extreme Life, there were too many things for him to digest...

Among them were some theories and laws that he might not be able to understand n a hundred years.

Only, his heart wasn’t willing to stop here. He still wanted to continue seeing, it was the joy of a hunter seeing prey, his subconscious desire to follow the path.

Reaching out to flip to the next page, Zong Shou suddenly felt a strong obstruction spread out from his fingertip.

He frowned slightly before exerting strength. He could definitely flip open this book!

More information surged in, continuously changing. The pages of this Book of Eon Extreme Life seem to have a lock, like a spiritual formation.

Inside it were numerous time laws entangled with one another. After Zong Shou broke through one lock after another, that page finally opened... only to see that it was a white piece of paper without a single word on it.

Zong Shou was enlightened once more. More words, runes, marks, and spiritual patterns were forcefully imprinted into his consciousness.

Not bothering whether he was willing or not, it was just forcefully imprinted.

Time flowed past. Fifteen minutes, thirty, forty-five, an hour, two hours, four hours...

Zong Shou felt an explosion in his mind, and came back to his senses.

Looking at this Book of Eon Extreme Life one more, he was filled with respect.

Within the Book of Eon Extreme Life there were a total of nine pages, in accordance with the Body, Earth, Heaven, Spirit, Celestial, God, Saint, End, and True nine realms.

With his cultivation, he should be able to see the third page which belonged to the Heaven realm.

Only he didn’t dare flip the page. This pinnacle book was in essence similar to the World Viewing Platform.

Just flipping open this page had consumed at least twenty years of his life!

He was already lacking in lifespan, and when his second page was opened, his days were numbered.

However just that first page alone was enough for him.

With a thought rising up, a tremble spread out from within his soul ocean. Between the black and white holes, the Eon word suddenly shone with a golden light, and its structure started to change.

It continuously gave out a spiritual light and its height was risen up. A gigantic Eon word finally rose above the other talismans.

The Luck word was also changing, flashing with threads of golden light.

Destiny, life, and luck were connected with one another. Within the Book of Eon Extreme Life, in addition to recording the secrets of time, there was also life. Different from luck, but enough for Zong Shou to raise up this Luck word talisman.

When these two God Talismans were formed, Zong Shou’s spiritual power was swiftly expanding, his soul was continuously swelling.

His soul quality was also rising. It was already really pure, but at this moment it was condensing.

With this step taken, he had already stepped to the Ninth Grade! The true image realm, peak of the Heaven Grade, pinnacle of the Heaven realm...

Zong Shou smiled. With this grade advancement, he would have one or two hundred more years of lifespan. At least he didn’t need to worry that he would die within a few decades!

Only then did he dare flip open the second and third pages!

It was similar to when he read the first page, but the time he used up was even greater.

Zong Shou didn’t try to understand it, just trying his best to forcefully memorize it all.

When Zong Shou came back to his senses once more, ten days had already passed on this empty mountain peak.

Looking at the blue Book of Eon Extreme Life, Zong Shou really couldn’t imagine how Zong Weiran managed to comprehend it all within two years and charged to the Celestial realm...

“Oh?”

With a slight thought, Zong Shou used his consciousness to search. Within the book was a ball of barely discernible, but extremely thick time spiritual energy.

If it surged around on the outside it would be extremely vast, being able to cover a tenth of Donglin Cloud Continent, but while gathered into this book, it was condensed into a ball, tough to notice.

When he touched it with his mind, he felt the time flow around the book become really abnormal.

“This is? No wonder...”

Zong Shou thought about it seriously before he realized what was going on. He finally knew how Zong Weiran was able to step into the celestial realm within two years.

It wasn’t two years, but hundreds of years, maybe even a thousand years!

As long as there was enough spiritual energy, this item could even twist time. As expected from a godly artifact!

Ten thousand years of accumulation meant the spiritual energy gathered up in this book was extremely plentiful.

It allowed Zong Weiran to advance to Celestial realm in two years, letting him step to the heavens, becoming God realm and Saint realm in just a few years...

Thousands of years of time condensed into two years. This Book of Eon Extreme Life wasn’t just a book which recorded temporal secrets, but actually a godly artifact. If not, how would it be able to change and twist his fate?

Only, although this item was good, but falling into his hands it was only a slightly special spell codex.

The spiritual energy gathered up in the book was already mostly used up. Just this bit left behind maintained the foundations of the book.

Bringing his soul to this era really wasn’t a simple matter. The merger just now had consumed the Book of Eon Extreme Life in Zong Weiran completely.

Putting it simply, the book currently in his hands was an empty shell.

Zong Shou couldn’t help but sigh. Reaching heaven in one step was something that he didn’t need to think about.

Following that, he had a thought, reaching out into the air and grabbing a handful of mind stones.

They were all pure blue, all Grade Nine mind stones belonging to the Time Element.

There were very few beasts who grasped the secrets of time. During the Cloud Desolate Era, god beasts were also rare. As such, these types of beast crystals were naturally extremely rare, only mind stone mines were able to produce them.

However the chances were also extremely low. Their value was ten times that of same grade mind stones.

These few in his hands, just two alone would be able to exchange for a Grade One Xuan Grade mind stone.

Items in heaven and earth were all split into Heaven, Earth, Xuan, and Huang grades. In the Cloud World, all the mind stone mines were of the most basic Huang grade. In the eyes of those spirit and celestial realm cultivators, they were all useless items.

Only the special time and space mind stones were precious and valuable.

At this moment Zong Shou didn’t hesitate to rip them all up. Instantly an extremely pure time spiritual energy spurted out.

As expected, the Book of Eon Extreme Life didn’t hesitate to absorb it all. Zong Shou could clearly feel that the spiritual energy within grew by a certain amount.

He then activated the book to slow down the time flow around his body. He meditated, forgetting all about his senses as he waited quietly.

It could be just a moment, or maybe several days and months. Only when Zong Shou felt that the Book couldn’t be maintained did he open his eyes.

Looking into the sky, he deduced the time through the movement of the stars, and his pupils were filled with bitterness.

Only three days had passed, three days of time gathered in that moment. Ten Grade Nine mind stones and the energy they provided was all consumed.

Which meant that even if he threw in all his finances, he would only be able to slow down fifty days of time.

Fifty days, how helpful would that be for him?

Unless he had more blue mind stones...

A bright light shone in Zong shou’s eyes. Near Gantian Mountain there were two large mind stone mines about to form. In the Donglin Cloud Continent, he also knew about many mind stone mines which were about to appear. One of them was also top grade.

However, these were far from enough!

Thinking about how it was not possible to snatch food from Great Shang and the various sects, the other Cloud Continents were also too far away. The ones in power there were all Shrines.

The only way would be the outside region, did he really have to conquer other worlds?

If he had enough mind stones, he could use this Book of Eon Extreme Life to search for the extreme of the martial path!

Thinking about that, Zong Shou felt a chill run down his spine. Why would he have such thoughts?

Conquer outside regions? That was really filled with ambition...

He broke out into a laugh. As expected, he wouldn’t stop at anything for what he wanted.

In the past, Gantian Mountain was a burden he wanted to get rid of it. At this moment, he felt about how this power could help him reach the peak of the sword path, and thus he was thinking about how to make use of it.

He was lazy to dwell on it as he stood up. Reaching out with his hand, a dragon roar sounded in the region.

Nearby, six two-mile long spiritual veins were drawn over by him. They were split into yin and yang-natured, filled with bits of lightning, six heaven veins.

They charged into his body at pretty much the same time, forcefully being drawn into his meridians as they started to cycle. Just moments later they were tamed and bound, filled with his mark.

Zong Shou’s martial path intent had long reached the soul realm. The barrier between Grade Seven and Eight was non-existent to him.

He absorbed the essence energy of Shenxiao to help him wash his bones and marrow. Weeks passed as they stabilized, his physical body getting stronger.

The internal energy of the martial path when one stepped into Grade Eight was just a matter of things falling in place, it was just so simple...
