Chapter 557: Extremely Vicious
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Still maintaining the way he looked when he killed Shenxiao, he didn’t move at all. The halberd pointed forwards, making him seem really domineering and stern.
If his eyes didn’t randomly turn, his posture would be perfect.
Unfortunately it wasn’t that Zong Shou wanted to move, but that he couldn’t. The essence energy of Shenxiao that he had absorbed was simply too pure, so pure that Zong Shou was unable to give up on it.
Naturally the life essence blood source of Shenxiao and the inner pellet hidden within were things he had eyed. It was enough to make any cultivator drool.
As he absorbed it, he was unable to stop. Like a river, the energy surged in from the tip of the sword.
The meridians in his body started to twist and swell up, reaching their maximum size.
However he wasn’t able to take in even ten percent of it. He was like a balloon forced to his maximum, sooner or later he was going to explode!
This Essence energy was directed by him into the spiritual network of the Blood Cloud Cavalry.
He first helped the four thousand people recover their injuries, but that only consumed twenty percent of it.
Zong Shou was helpless and decided to help wash their bones, train their meridians, and strengthen their bones.
This series of manipulations lasted for ten minutes. At this point he had still only consumed seventy percent of the Essence energy. Even Zong Yuan and Yin Yang looked over at him with pleading expressions, their faces swelling red. Even the two Grade Seven experts couldn’t take it anymore.
Zong Shou was unable to turn his head, but he could feel those slightly angry gazes from behind. Helplessly he could only release the Blood Cloud Cavalry.
There was still twenty percent of the god realm Essence energy. If he just gave up on it, it was really a waste!
Thinking about it, Leidong, Tianqi, Zhao Yanran and the others all made their way onto the mountain.
When the latter saw that, she couldn’t help but laugh coldly. “Is this the so-called acting cool that you said to Xue’er? How long are you going to act cool?”
Zong Shou felt slightly awkward, but at that moment he felt a spiritual sense spreading from his left arm.
He was instantly delighted. Little Gold had woken up from its deep sleep!
Without hesitation, he led the remaining twenty percent of god realm Essence energy into its body.
This fellow was like a bottomless pit, crazily swallowing Shenxiao’s Essence energy. After it finished, it felt that it still wasn’t enough, like it wasn’t full, and complained to him.
Zong Shou felt his entire body relax as he stowed the halberd and put the broken Tan sword back into its sheath. As for the inner pellet of Shenxiao, he naturally accepted it, turning into a golden liquid which sank into his energy ocean.
At this time he didn’t have the time to see it. The first thing he did after he regained his senses was to wave his sleeves slightly and release Xuanyuan Yiren from the Lingjie ring.
Yiren first blinked her eyes, filled with loss. She then looked at the sky, where the pressure that was about to break apart the heavens was gone. “Did that Shenxiao retreat?”
Everyone was silent, until Tianqi spoke, “Just now someone with great spell ability acted to block everything. However, Shenxiao seems to have already fallen!”
Xuanyuan Yiren was instantly startled, “How? That person is god realm, who could he have died to…”
In her eyes, it was not bad if Zong Shou was able to chase this Shenxiao out of this world. Zong Shou went too far this time, which caused this person to not bother about the Cloud World rules.
The other people looked towards the Blood-Armored teen with questioning gazes.
“Who else could it be?”
Zong Shou’s brows rose up, he was a little delighted. “Apart from me, who could kill that Shenxiao? He was asking to die!”
The moment he said those words, the people around had suspicious looks in their eyes. Zhao Yanran was originally thinking that Shenxiao was really killed by Zong Shou. At this moment, she mocked herself, she was really crazy to think that way.
This Zong Shou was really shameless to actually dare to brag like that!
The other people all shook their heads. Xuanyuan Tong was thinking that naturally someone else attacked and killed Shenxiao. However, it was okay for him to brag. Anyways, it was free and could threaten the cities. As for those big sects, probably no one would believe it.
Tianqi nodded his head slightly. “The few world protector venerables are really fair. If those outer region seniors could break the rules and interfere in Cloud World matters, wouldn’t this world be in chaos? The various sect seniors aren’t a small number!”
Xuanyuan Yiren also agreed. The death of Shenxiao could only be at the hands of the world protector venerables.
This time Zong Shou was fortunate to be weak. Thinking of that, Xuanyuan Yiren felt really afraid, her brow furrowing. “Zong Shou, you should learn from this lesson. Unless you have no choice and are fully confident, you definitely can’t force the enemy into a corner!”
Zong Shou broke out into a laugh inside. It wasn’t that he wasn’t fully confident, but that he became a pawn!
Although he was a member of the Common People Path, why for some reason did he feel so annoyed?
After this matter ended and he returned to the place, he would need to ask the sect for an explanation!
Zong Shou smiled and casually threw the halberd in his hand to the side.
“Zong Yuan! Lead the Blood Cloud Cavalry for me to conquer the various sects! Any sect that is enemies with Gantian Mountain will be wiped out! Send a message to Gantian, with left pillar Qiu as commander, take down Blazing Flame Mountain, no surrender is allowed! Within three months I will establish a country system and ascend to king…”
Zong Yuan accepted the halberd and bowed. He directly led the Four thousand Blood Cavalry and galloped away.
Jingyin couldn’t help but speak up, “The ruler has four thousand Blood Cloud Cavalry, there aren’t many opponents in the Cloud continent, Donglin definitely belongs to you. Ruler, please understand the pain of the common people, it isn’t easy to give birth to life, so kill less!”
Zong Shou didn’t bother about her, following which she thought back to another thing. “Ah, right! Bring this governor commander Kong over and order Qiuwei to let her sit by the commander person. Say she is my concubine and helping me take charge of the army. Anyways, the more people know the better. Thank you, Zhao Yanran…”
This was something he just thought about. If he couldn’t drag her away, he would alienate her. At least it could steal ten years of luck for Great Shang!
Kongyao was furious, a pent up frustration building in her chest that she couldn’t vent. Her beautiful eyes opened wide as she stared over angrily.
Zong Shou wanted her to be unable to return to Great Shang, and spoil her reputation! Why was this person so vicious?
How could such a person be the Saint King? Own such pure dragon energy?
She felt unfairness in her heart as a bloody wound appeared on her forehead once more.
At this moment that explosive luck change had ended. Although she still felt a piercing pain after using the secret technique to look, it wasn’t as bad as before, she would only lose a little bit of lifespan.
Following which she was totally stunned. Why was the size of the dragon energy even bigger than before? Like adding oil to the fire, it was originally vast, but now it was raging, unable to stop!
It was like it had obtained some help, it seemed to have the strength to swallow heaven and earth! And it was still that pure and flawless!
It made Kongyao crazy. The legendary few saint emperors were all saints with high and clean morals!
This Zong Shou had massacred the innocent and done all sorts of bad things. How could he be considered in the same vein as the ancient saint emperor?
Zhao Yanran laughed, Xuanyuan Yiren also pinched his waist. Zong Shou acted like he didn’t know, stepping onto the ground below and looking at the thick spiritual energy a little unwillingly.
Even after experiencing a celestial realm level battle, it wasn’t damaged at all!
“This Mysterious Cloud Spiritual House will be given to the Kongqi Sect! Also, the spiritual land veins of the sects, take all that you can. Seven Spirit Sect can take thirty percent!”
Tianqi was delighted, bowing deeply. “Ruler’s words are like that of a mountain, Tianqi is filled with endless gratitude!”
Thousands of years of running it, but he was unable to make the Kongqi Sect much stronger. Today, just because of a smart choice, he had raised Kongqi Sect’s ranking by several spots…
Shui Lingxiao smiled, “Seven Spirit Sect thanks you, Ruler, for your kindness!”
Zong Shou looked at the others, only to see the eyes of Leidong, Jin Buhui, and the other people filled with emotions, extremely complicated, like they had a lot to say. Following that he smiled. “Brother and brother Buhui wait up, I have two more important things to do. Let’s speak after we return to Gantian Mountain. I will drink a thousand cups with all of you and get drunk together!”
Xuanyuan Yiren’s heart moved. Out of the two things, one of them was naturally uncle Weiran, who fell in the Oblivion Cloud Ocean, and whose life or death was unknown. As for the other, she had no idea.
Zong Shou nodded towards her, before stepping through the air into a void fissure.
Walking four steps out, he felt really tired. Luckily his internal energy was sufficient. It was still a little tough to deal with the changing of space, as well as various kinds of pressures.
As expected, walking about in the void fissures at Grade Eight was not enough!
—
Moments later, he finally stepped into a world river. This space was more stable.
Just as he heaved a sigh of relief, he saw an old man waiting quietly with his arms by his side.
Just one look, and Zong Shou knew that it was definitely Dragon Shadow.
Although this was the first time they had met, Zong Shou still felt extremely close and familiar. like a master and disciple who had met several times before, it was really natural.
“Disciple Zong Shou greets master!”
“Rise! I know that you aren’t someone who follows rites and rituals!”
Dragon Shadow turned around. Totally different from that explosive and vast voice, he looked like an elegant old man, “Cut the crap! I heard Aokun say that you had the chance to use the World Viewing Instrument to view the scenes of the absolute beginning?”
His tone was anxious and impatient.
Zong Shou was delighted, as he had also guessed that his master should be such a personality.
He didn’t say much, calming down and entering a really quiet realm. Moments later, an illusionary scene appeared in his mind.
The core of the initial beginning, following which an explosion and the world expanded, laws were forming, one by one, they appeared.
Although it was just an illusion, this piece of the void was stirred up and became extremely chaotic.
Zong Shou’s brow was covered in cold sweat, finding it extremely tough and tiring.
In just a few breaths, the illusion had ended. Dragon Shadow asked with a changing expression, “This is the scene of the absolute beginning that you saw, how many years of lifespan did you use up?”
