Divine Brilliance

Chapter 814: Take a different approach

You wanted to?

Zong Shou turned around with a weird expression in his eyes, totally knowing what to do.

Although the Spiritual Wave was about to rise up in the Cloud World and many spiritual mines appeared in Huizhou and Donglin, after all, Great Gan didn’t have as deep foundations as those few factions and Great Shang.

Moreover, providing for the huge army and the Blood Cloud Cavalry already consumed large amounts of Gantian Mountain resources.

One must know that before the Spiritual Wave, even the Taoist Faction’s Spirit Realm disciples all had to head out to the outer region.

It was both to search for the Dao and also to obtain more mind stones and spiritual resources for them to use for cultivation.

The current Great Gan really didn’t have the ability to raise the three of them.

However, Li Fengfei actually told him that it wasn’t a problem which surprised him.

“I have some savings these years!”

Li Fengfei smiled and explained, “People like myself are restricted by talent. Although I have a long lifespan, it is extremely hard for me to improve. Normal methods don’t work, so I have to choose other tactics. Rather than falling eventually, why not do a luck cultivation, using the luck of the country to help me cultivating?”

Luck cultivation?

Zong Shou understood. He also knew of one person who did that.

...It was Great Shang’s Grand Tutor Zhongxuan. He was a Taoist Faction disciple, but for some reason, he started to work for Great Shang.

His cultivation also reached peak God Realm in a short 110 years.

Actually, the other people recruited by Gantian Mountain were in pretty much the same situation now.

“However, have you thought about the risks within? If you are wrapped up in a country war, you would have a chance of dying. If Great Gan is wiped out, you will be finished!”

These words weren’t just to scare him. Of the more than 20 Grade Nine and Spirit Realm people he recruited, nine of them died in the battle with the Taoist Faction, amounting to close to a third of them.

“Of course, I thought about it!”

Li Fengfei’s expression was really solemn, “However, I don’t really bother much about life and death. I just want to walk a little further on the path of cultivation. Naturally, it would be good if I can reach the End Realm, but if not, then when I have a chance to reincarnate in the future, I at least will have a little confidence. Actually, not only me, but the two behind me have the same thoughts too.”

When he said this, the green-robed man behind him solemnly bowed. “Hanming greets Ruler! Just as Old Li has spoken, we are really sincere to serve Ruler!”

The other person smiled, “I am Ge Li. I am not good at speaking, but the reason I wanted to join your side is that I have high hopes for your future. Whether it is because you are the disciple of Dragon Shadow, or the invincible Blood Sword Monster Lord, you have a long future. Ruler, you probably have heard of how a fly can only fly a short distance on its own, but it can cover thousands of miles on a horse? I am willing to be a fly and ride on your back. As long as I can improve even just a little, I would even be willing to die.”

Zong Shou kept silent. He did look down on the three of them, however, now they gave him a special feeling.

Whether it was Li Fengfei or Hanming and Ge Li, they all feared death.

What they feared wasn’t death but being unable to proceed further in their path, unable to witness the core of the Grand Dao.

Their comprehension and talents couldn’t compare to his, but they were all using their own methods to chase the pinnacle for their path.

He couldn’t help but give out a mocking laugh. Zong Shou, you are unique, not only having the book of Eon but also dozens of years of experience, how can you lose out to these people?

“Forget it! Let’s just follow what you all want!”

He agreed. At this moment, Great Gan did in fact need experts to take charge and protect it.

The three of them were Intermediate Celestial Realm, their strengths were decent. In Great Gan, they would be able to suppress those people with nefarious intentions.

Feishuang and Feihan walked in front of the four of them.

Although they had never been to this hall before, after entering, who knew whether it was because of their bloodline legacy or other reasons, but they were really familiar with it. They led the few of them, easily walking deep into the hall.

The many restrictions along the way were either avoided or simply broken.

They were a little distracted, keeping their ears perked to listen to what the few of them were talking about.

They thought that the three of them were willing to serve Zong Shou because that fellow was the Lu Family Young Master.

However, they were shocked by what they heard. They mentioned that they had high hopes for Zong Shou himself and not due to the giant Sky Burning Lu Family. action

It seemed like Zong Shou’s small country in the Cloud World not only didn’t die but it was getting stronger.

Invincible in the Cloud World? Blood Sword Monster Lord? What happened in the Cloud World? What did the two of them miss?

The Taoist Faction worried because of Zong Shou’s identity, however, now hearing the few of them speak, that was far from it.

Their stomachs were filled with questions but they could only suppress their angst.

A moment later, they passed through a giant passage, which to their race members was a huge passageway, and finally a giant courtyard appeared in front of the few of them.

It wasn’t appropriate to call it a courtyard. It was a wide plain and just opposite it was a giant mountain. There were numerous holes in it.

Who knew how many hundreds of thousands of feet high it was. They could see some dragon shadows moving about on the peak of the mountain.

What shocked one was that everything here looked normal, but their spiritual sense could clearly feel that the world wasn’t as normal and peaceful as it seemed. Numerous space movements were occurring, either stacking, twisting, collapsing, or being born.

Every second, there were different changes every 10 feet.

“This is the legacy land of the Instant Space Dragon in the past!”

Ye Feishuang lifted her lower chin a little, her tone filled with pride and also melancholy, “For the Instant Space Dragon Race, any that passed the Spirit Realm had to enter the First Dragon Hall to cultivate. It was said that the more spacetime laws one grasped, the more benefits one would get from here. If one is able to walk to the peak, one will be able to cultivate for 10 years in the Universe Light Hall.”

“However, that was 10,000 years ago with a God Realm Dragon in charge. When the hall disappeared, the United Light Hall wasn’t completed, so who knew what it was like now?

Her tone was filled with sadness, who knew whether she was emotional about the fall of the Instant Space Dragon Race or because of Zhuya Hongji’s betrayal.

Zong Shou squinted and then smiled, “Do you need me to protect you? Speaking of which, what are the two of you trying to find?”

Ye Feishuang scoffed and didn’t worry about him. She said expressionlessly, “I don’t know the formations here well. Luckily, there is no risk of death and if I am unable to proceed, I will be teleported out of the Dragon Hall. You have no dragon blood and are restricted in the formation more than the two of us. Be careful...”

After saying this, she pulled Ye Feihan, who wanted to speak to Zong Shou, to move forwards.

They took a few steps out and instantly disappeared.

Zong Shou shook his head. He knew that the two of them were teleported away by the formation and who knew where they went?

He looked at the peak once more, and his eyes shone a bright light.

Universe Light Hall? He instinctively felt that the incomplete Celestial Treasure here definitely would have huge benefits for him.

He didn’t hesitate and stepped right out. Then, he felt a huge space power wrap around him and teleport him into the distance.

Zong Shou didn’t resist, retracting his soul power and allowing it to teleport him. He looked at the changes around him with some slight interest.

When everything stopped, he noticed that he was already standing at the foot of the mountain.

“Amazing! This is the spacetime technique grasped by the Instant Space Dragon race?”

Zong Shou flicked with a finger which caused a small and unnoticeable ripple.

“15 minutes actually passed...”

Just now, when his body was teleported, it felt like it was only a moment.

However, at this moment, he realized that 15 minutes had passed in the world in front of him!

If it wasn’t for himself being good at this Dao, he might not have been able to notice it.

Zong Shou was like a hunter, delighted from looking at its prey. Luckily, he saw the fourth page of the Book of Eon, otherwise, he would have been totally confused by the teleportation of the formation.

Now, he was peeking at its mysteries to piece it together with the stuff he knew. Many of the parts he didn’t understand were solved as he found actual proof.

Such a feeling was truly amazing.

Then, he looked at the giant mountain in front of him. Zong Shou thought to himself that he had good luck as he continued to walk upwards.

This time, he didn’t allow the space to twist; he just suppressed it!

He changed the restrictions around, either breaking it or suppressing it.

He was also comprehending the various spacetime laws. He was like a sponge in water, sucking in everything that he could come into contact with.

In just a moment, he had an idea as he reached out his hand. Moments later, he was able to take an item out from the air.

It was a bag, in it were dozens of crisp and tempting fruits.

Zong Shou didn’t recognize it and didn’t have any records of this item in his mind.

However, the Lightning Winged Dragon drilled out. Its two eyes hesitated as it looked at the fruits.

It then swallowed one, smashing it in its mouth. Instantly, a fragrance spread all over and the smell was extremely tempting.

Little Gold, Xiaori, and Hanxi were all attracted, greedily swallowing one each.

Zong Shou was curious and tried to take a bite. As expected, it was refreshing and sweet, extremely delicious. Unfortunately, it melted right away before he was able to taste anything.

In the next moment, he frowned. He felt that there was some movement in the true qi and spiritual energy that he was forcefully suppressing.

Especially the essence energy which saw improvements. A refreshing energy seeped into his body and soul. Like quicksilver into the ground, needles to holes, sweeping all about. This caused his body to be covered in a cooling intent, and his thoughts and emotions also became really sharp and clear.

“Solidify the soul, fixing the foundations? So, it is the Cloud Desolate Era’s Saint Essence Qingming Fruit...”

Zong Shou had only heard of such a spiritual item and didn’t know what it looked like.

He only knew that both beasts and humans benefited from consuming it. It could help replenish and buff the foundations, and for the weaker one, the benefits would be even greater.

Because his foundations were perfect, the energy within the fruit was unable to seep into his body.

Out of the five beasts and him, he received the least benefits.

However, under the hits of this Qingming Energy, a few weaknesses and lacking points in his Dao Foundations appeared.

He didn’t bother about the grumbling and vengeful eyes of Xiaori, Little Gold and the others as he kept the remaining five.

“This Instant Space Dragon Race really takes a new approach!”
