The cloud crossing carriage continued southwest for roughly 2 days and entered a mountainous region.
The so called Dragon Gathering Mountain dragon gate was within Xiping Province, near the ocean. Today, this place was coincidentally under his jurisdiction. There were roughly 70 thousand of Chai Yuan’s troops who were housed here.
Which was why even without bringing a personal army and heading over alone, Zong Shou also didn’t fear for his own safety.
However, before going over to that place, Zong Shou planned to visit another area.
This region, even with how stable to cloud crossing carriage was it, still rose up and down according to the land geography.
Zong Shou was unable to continue cultivating within the cloud crossing carriage and as such he could only play with Shi Ruolan as enjoyment.
Taking a translucent crystal-like candy and shaking it in front of Shi Ruolan.
“Do you want to eat a sweet?”
Shi Ruolan’s eyes instantly lit up, nodding her head without any hesitation. Just as she was about to reach her hand out for it, she heard Zong Shou give out a cunning laugh and pointed at his face, “Kiss me and I will give this sweet to you.”
Shi Ruolan instantly grumbled. A few days have passed and she wasn’t afraid of Zong Shou no more.
However, her brother was sometimes really weird. Based on what sister Yiren said he was really cunning.
Also, Sister Chuxue told him to stay far away from this Brother in case she got corrupted.
Just as she was hesitating whether or not to reply, Xuanyuan Yiren had returned from collecting herbs. Looking at this scene she was furious.
She hugged Ruolan in her arms and took a few steps back away from Zong Shou, “Lanlan don’t eat his sweets. I have a lot with me. Zong Shou, can you please have some morals? You have such weird thoughts on such a small kid, you really are shameless…”
Zong Shou felt really innocent, wasn’t he trying to develop relationships with Ruolan?
This little brat looked unassuming but in the near future, she was an unparalleled general that could kill her way all around. And also that maniac tiger snow seal was most probably an exceptional thing.
No matter how dumb he was, he knew he had to get her on his side. In the future, with Zong Yuan on his left and Ruolan on his right, 2 unparalleled generals even if he washed his hands off Gantian Mountain, he would have nothing to worry about.
He really had none of those thoughts. Was he really so perverted in the eyes of those few girls?
Sighing slightly Zong Shou kept the crystal sweet in his hands and said with some thoughts in his head,” Yiren won’t it be good if I was her master?”
Xuanyuan Yiren was slightly startled when she heard that. Following which she nodded, “It is naturally good for you to teach her but to be her master you need to be proper and don’t you dare bully her…”
She couldn’t see through her fiancé. His depths in the sword path was something she had no idea about.
Based on what she knew Zong Shou had already grasped 5 sword intents.
With his teachings, Zong Yuan was able to have a huge increase in his strength in just a few months. Grasping the maniac lightning spear intent, his strength was so strong that he could challenge any expert below the 7th rank.
Zong Shou hesitated. He was confident that if he carved this jade, it would be better than what happened in the last life. Her achievements wouldn’t be limited to being an unparalleled general.
What he worried about was that he didn’t have the time. But it wasn’t an easy matter to find her another famous master.
Just as he frowned and thought, Zong Shou heard Zong Yuan’s voice spread out from outside, “Ruler we have arrived at the Mystery Ghost Mountain you mentioned!”
Zong Shou’s brows rose up and he temporarily shelved that matter. His body shifting as he came outside of the carriage. At this moment this carriage was climbing upwards according to the steepness of the mountain.
Luckily the horses pulling his carriage were all changed to grade 4 Windrider foals. Even if there were only 8 but their pulling strength was a hundred times better than before.
8 minutes later, the cloud crossing carriage finally climb 20 thousand feet and reached a peak.
The scenery he saw several times in the last life appeared in front of him once more.
Zong Shou got off the carriage and with just a few jumps he arrived beside the cliff. Following which, he looked around. In just a moment, his eyes were filled with surprise and bewilderment.
Although this place was a little different from the god-emperor game, the Essence of it was the same.
A moment later Xuanyuan Yiren who was carrying Shi Ruolan and came by his side, asking curiously, “This is the place that you said could help us increase our strength greatly? There isn’t anything…”
When the others heard that, they were all at a loss. All of them listened to Zong Shou’s orders to come here and they didn’t know about that matter.
However, looking at this place everywhere was filled with weird pieces of stone. Apart from some trees and grasses, there wasn’t anything at all. Beneath the cliff was a white fog, who knows how deep it was and who knows what was under it.
Did the ruler get some news and thought that there was some treasure here?
Thinking about it, they saw Zong Shou’s body move slightly as he found some small grass beside the cliff.
Taking it down and continuously squeezing at it. Not Long later several drips of liquid appeared in his palm.
He reached out with his hand and a half human-sized intense snowbird which was passing by in the sky was captured unluckily by Zong Shou.
He first sought several poison prevention pills from Xuanyuan Yiren and fed it to the bird before dropping the green liquid into its mouth.
Following which he waited quietly. roughly an hour later he saw this grade 1 intense snow bird’s aura change slightly. Its body became stronger and a few of its feathers started to change.
The people around were shocked. Apart from Ruolan, everyone here had sensitive senses. This intense snowbird was, in fact, increasing in strength.
It was really apparent and if one didn’t pay attention one wouldn’t be able to notice. However the effect of the green liquid obviously still hadn’t ended, it was seeping into the 4 limbs and veins of the bird at a really slow pace. Slowly showing its effects and raising the strength and even bloodline of the intense snowbird…
“This is just the most ordinary grass, how could it do that?”
Xuanyuan Yiren was slightly startled, looking closely at the side of the cliff. A moment later she was able to confirm that she had seen correctly.
She couldn’t help but not understand. This grade was the most simple and common wild grass, it didn’t even have a grade. How could it have such effects?
She was also feeling excited. As a pill master, how would she not be after seeing that?
“It is not the grass but the mist…”
Zong Shou’s eyes were leisure as he looked beneath the cliff. This place was covered in fog, the grass at the side of the cliff absorbed this special mist into its body and stored it up continuously.
His eyes were filled with surprise, the best time for this place was not long after the spiritual wave began.
However looking at the current situation, ten thousand years of accumulation should have a good effect.
Following which he saw the intense snow bird’s body suddenly twitch, its eyes turning red.
“There’s poison?” Ruo Shui’s brows furrowed, what she hated the most was poison.
Zong Shou acknowledged, several golden needles poking into the intense snowbird and forcing out the poison along with those green liquid.
The liquid actually has a shocking ability, however, it was entangled with the poison, difficult to separate one from another.
In just a moment this intense snowbird had recovered back to normal. Zong Shou fed it an energy replenishment pill before releasing it, allowing it to fly away. It seemed to be a little injured as its body was shaky.
Hu Zhongyuan, Li Luo and the others all exchanged glances unable to understand. The liquid from the grass seem to be able to raise ability but the poison was really intense and belonged to those special poisons. If it wasn’t for Zong Shou giving the intense snowbird some poison prevention pills before and also helped to chase it out of its body, in just 10 minutes its body would decompose and turn into blood and water.
“You want me to solve the poison in the mist?”
Xuanyuan Yiren sighed, “I’m not that good with poison and rarely analyzed it in the past. I also have never seen such a poison. Looking at the way the intense snowbird was affected, I only have 30% confidence and need above a year…”
Zong Shou’s brows raised up, thinking to himself that this brat actually had the confidence to solve it?
This place was found by a Monster race friend of his unintentionally in the game in the last life.
After he realized that the mist below had the magical effect of raising true qi and body quality, he went around trying to solve the poison within. He tried all methods but was unable to do it.
In the end, he had no choice but ask his few good friends. Coincidentally, Zong Shou was in an eager need to raise his strength which was why he would participate in this.
Although he didn’t do much and didn’t get many benefits, in the end, he understood the way to make use of the mist.
“There’s no need! Directly jump down from here, when we go down, I have a way…”
Hu Zhongyuan’s brows twisted, he took a step back without making a sound. Thinking to himself was he trying to con them?
They had just climbed up over 20 thousand feet. Who knows how deep was below this abyss. They were martial cultivators and not spirit masters, they were only able to step on air after they reached the ascended realm. This was 20 thousand feet, the sides of this cliff were enough to make them into meat paste.
And wasn’t the mist below obviously poisonous?
Anyways he was going to look at the situation and wait for the people beside him to test the depths before he does anything.
Just as he was thinking that who knows when but Zong Shou had arrived behind him and kicked him without making a sound.
Hu Zhongyuan cried out as he fell down from the cliff. Falling into the mist, in just a moment they were unable to see any signs of it. They could only hear him shout out, “Ling Xuan Chai Yuan if you 2 can return tell my father not to take revenge for me. I am just so strong the ruler is jealous of my ability…”
Following which his voice couldn’t be heard anymore. Zong Shou’s voice was really friendly as he smiled at the people around.
“Are you all going to jump yourself or will I need to kick you down?”
Chai Yuan slightly hesitated. After thinking about it carefully, there was no benefit for Zong Shou to force them to kill themselves. As such he could only brace himself and jump downwards.
