Divine Brilliance

The white flames burned, but when Demon Lotus’s lifespan was about to disappear, it stopped.

Demon Lotus’s heart was cold and sunken as she stared viciously at Zong Shou.

Just now, she hoped that she could die in the white flames. However, Zong Shou stopped at the right time, using the Source Life Spirit Breathing Technique to help her recover.

However, this wasn’t him being nice but because he wanted to torture her after she recovered.

The warm spiritual energy flowed through her meridians. Like a clear fountain, it was healing and nourishing her wounds and injuries from before.

Demon Lotus didn’t feel any warmth. Instead, she was both shocked and afraid.

“Zong Shou, you demon! You are mad! One day, one day I will kill you! I will swallow your flesh and wipe out your whole family…”

She scolded out. She only hoped that she could anger him and make him end her life.

This Saint Ruler looked weak and gentle. However, when he tortured people, he had endless new ideas. He was even more demonic than people from the Demon Path…

Zong Shou didn’t care, releasing Demon Lotus. He turned and asked Chi Hongyi who was paralysed.

“How do I release the seal?”

“The Demon Swallowing Hell Seal was something that Li Biexue brought to the Cloud World from the outer region. Although there were many factions, they are all really similar. To solve this technique, one way is to kill Wushang Yuan Demon such that he is wiped out. The other is to help Xiaoxiao forge her soul foundations. The last will be to search for the technique that Li Biexue passed down 17,000 years ago. To study the Dao…”

Chi Hongyi was really calm. Although he was being tortured, he could take it. He wasn’t as crazy as Demon Lotus.

“This is all I know. If you have the balls, then kill me!”

Zong Shou kept silent for a moment before stabbing down, the white flames charged into Chi Hongyi’s body.

Instantly, a heaven shaking loud scream reverberated through the hallway such that stone fell down and collapsed from above.

Chuxue looked on from the side and felt a chill down her spine. She didn’t bother about the two of them, they deserved it for causing harm to Su Xiaoxiao.

However, Zong Shou’s current situation was a little off. If this went on, his soul would be damaged and flaws would appear.

She had an idea and she tried to persuade, “Young Master, it is useless torturing them like this. Sister Su isn’t in a good state, I think we should return to Common People’s Vast Habitat to get Senior Master Lin Xuanshuang to help.”

Only now did Zong Shou’s expression change and his eyes struggled. He then stabbed Hanqing with a sword such that another scream rang out.

He didn’t even bother asking Hanqing, directly torturing him.

Chuxue’s expression changed once more. She slightly waved her hand and a five colored glow protected onto that Xuan Ice. Her eyes were anxious as she said, “Young Master, this small world is about to collapse. If we don’t leave we won’t have a chance! At that time, Xue’er might not be able to protect Sister Su.”

During that short moment, numerous black cracks formed in the air and spread about crazily, such that more and more stones collapsed in the tunnel.

Zong Shou hesitated and his eyes slowly sharpened. He scoffed coldly, his sword light wrapping as he sliced off all three of their heads.

He then hollered out in rage, venting the hatred and grievances in his heart.

Just at this moment, Chuxue’s face was devoid of blood, “The situation doesn’t look right…”

Zong Shou also sensed it. He wanted to teleport away from this small world and then leave the tomb from the world river to avoid the chaos.

However, just as he tried, he noticed that a power from Su Xiaoxiao was tugging him such that he couldn’t leave.

The space in the tunnel also became unusually stable.

Even if he went all out, he was only able to make a small crack.

One must know that his Instant Space technique along with the wings, his space control had increased by close to double! He was not much weaker than those End Realm experts.

The Dragon Formation was already destroyed and it had no more ability to seal space.

Even then, he was unable to teleport the three of them out.

“What is going on?”

Zong Shou was regretting a little. To torture the three of them, he had wasted too much time.

He was shocked and looked into the distance.

He could see a few indiscernible strands of Dragon Energy flying over, it was filled with an ocean amount of essence energy.

Zong Shou was stunned and knew the rough reason. This was probably the vast energy surging into the most bottom layer of the tomb.

At this moment, close to 70% shifted towards Su Xiaoxiao.

Even the last 30% was also changing direction.

The Blue Fire Xuan Turtle was frightened and quickly hid its limbs and head into its shell.

Chuxue panicked. Even an End Realm’s full power strike was weaker than that.

She also knew that trying to block was useless.

“It’s a spiritual formation!”

Zong Shou reacted right away. It was probably due to the formation that was maintaining Su Xiaoxiao’s life force.

If the Dragon Formation wasn’t destroyed, this wouldn’t have happened.

However, now with the world collapsing and the Dragon Energy losing a conduit, this spiritual formation naturally became the new one. Thus, it gathered towards Su Xiaoxiao.

Zong Shou was covered in cold sweat. The nine top Celestial Artifacts were helping to maintain her life and they couldn’t be moved.

However, if the Dragon Energy and essence energy struck her, she wouldn’t be able to take it and would die.

Thousands of thoughts filled his head. Many thoughts flashed across his mind but Zong Shou rejected them.

Every idea he came up with couldn’t solve the situation.

He hated the person who destroyed the Shanhe Hall.

He had one last idea but he hesitated. A moment later, he gritted his teeth and flashed onto the Blue Fire Xuan Turtle.

“Xue’er, take care of her!”

He waved his sleeves and released Xiaori, Xiaoyue, Little Gold, and Hanxi.

In a while he couldn’t be distracted and could only rely on them and Chuxue to protect him.

Zong Shou reached out and held up Su Xiaoxiao’s body.

He changed it to him sitting in the formation and then let Xiaoxiao lay on his legs.

Chuxue looked on from the side and understood. Zong Shou was using a dual cultivation technique.

He used his own body as a barrier to remove other auras to purify the life essence into her body.

She knew she shouldn’t look but she still peeked at them.

Zong Shou had kissed Su Xiaoxiao’s lips.

There wasn’t any desire but Chuxue’s face still turned red.

How perverted…

However, she knew that Su Xiaoxiao was okay. She heaved a sigh of relief. However, now she started to worry for Zong Shou.

No! Such large amounts of essence energy isn’t something normal cultivators can accept!

Her expression changed once more. She saw her skin tearing apart, blood seeping out and spreading all around.

At this moment, Zong Shou felt that his body was being cut up by knives.

The essence energy that was injected into his body was extremely pure and stubborn.

Even if he used the wings to strengthen his body such that he entered Saint Realm, all his energy turned into Celestial Power and he still wasn’t able to remove the essence energy.

However, if he could refine them it would be good for him and save him much cultivation. The pure essence energy could be turned into something he could use directly, like it was his own cultivation.

In this death land, although there were many Death Energy merged into it, the five top Celestial Artifacts’ life essence helped to neutralize a large part.

With the nine revival artifacts around him, it wasn’t much of a problem anymore.

Zong Shou grasped the Life and Death Switch Technique, Life could Die, Dead could live so he didn’t care.

However, there was a little too much energy.

Not only did his body swell up like a ball, but his soul was full.

Zong Shou tore open dozens of wounds on his body to avoid the possibility of him exploding.

However, the situation started to worsen.

The essence energy was being forced in and his head started to hurt.

He could see that around the One Origin Sword, there were dozens of dragons fighting one another and biting one another.

Worse still was Su Xiaoxiao. A portion of the Life Essence Power of the Nine Hole Life Essence Stone and eight revival artifacts were neutralising the Death Power.

Less than 50% of before was being provided to Su Xiaoxiao. Her heart rhythm that had stabilized once again dimmed.

Zong Shou felt frustrated. He wasn’t able to find a solution but it was useless even if he regretted it now.

He tried to think about it but the essence energy that was being condensed till it was about to explode, and that extreme pain made it impossible for him to think.

“Damn it!”

Zong Shou cursed out. He wished that he could chase out all of the energy from his body.

“Chase it out? Such thick essence energy can even destroy dozens of worlds. Break and then build?”

Zong Shou was in deep thought. Spiritual sense reached into his body.

“This is the Ten Thousand Spirit Body?”

Su Xiaoxiao’s body was different from normal girls, it was a natural formation.

It didn’t help her but if there was a baby inside, it could better sense energy and swallow Xiantian Energy.

A thought rose up in his mind.

Since he had to break and then build, then he definitely couldn’t use the Yuan Demon Seven Emotion Technique. What about Lin Xuanshuang’s Source Life Spirit Breathing Technique?
