Divine Brilliance

Within a void fissure, a teen in a black shirt who had a cold expression and was carrying a long sword stood in pure darkness.

He seemed to be waiting for someone, and his eyes flashed coldly,

A moment later, a person suddenly appeared here. He was similarly young, dressed in a white scholarly dress. His head wearing a scholarly crown. It was Wei Xu who had just parted ways with Zong Shou.

The moment he appeared he noticed the presence of the teen in a black shirt. Then, he stood in the air, his eyes showing an expression of doubt.

“Is that senior brother Ming Yu?”

Wei Xu’s eyes were like candles. If he was willing, he could have lit up the entire place. But at this place, it seemed to use up a lot of energy.

A moment later after confirming the black-shirted teen’s identity, he gave a relaxed sigh, “I was wondering why the 6 of them would be so easily scared off. So it was senior brother protecting them, thank you!”

The teen scoffed, filled with some coldness. In the end, he walked out from the darkness, coldly focusing on Wei Xu, “You also know that the 6 of them are hard to handle? I remember teacher mentioned before that unless the 7 swords are gathered or common people path is in danger of collapsing, if not we 6 are not allowed to take a step into the cloud world. 8 years have only passed since he said that. Have you forgotten it so quickly?”

“No, I didn’t, junior Brother had no choice but to go!”

Wei Xu smiled bitterly, seeing the unhappiness on Ming Yu’s face get thicker and thicker, he reached out with his hand. An item appeared, a white light covering it, actually unable to see what was within.

“Senior Brother doesn’t worry, I didn’t do so without preparation. With this item, I might not be able to win those few end realm experts but if I wanted to flee, then no one can stop me. As for those 6 antiques, they are all the more not in my eyes.”

The black shirt teen looked carefully before his face relaxed. His brows raised, “Then that disciple you recruited for master’s wife, our 7th junior Brother. What past does he have for you to take such a risk?”

“Senior Brother already knows?”

The moment he asked that sentence, he saw the teen point at the center of his brows, and immediately, he stopped all the other words he was about to say.

His question was indeed quite foolish. Since Zong Shou’s name was on the mysterious life golden book then his senior brother, who was right next to the cloud world, would sense something.

Thinking carefully, Wei Xu decided that it was better not to say the truth. If he did, the two of them might have to immediately have a battle.

He only gave a rough answer, “Naturally he is the best. 7th brother’s achievements are only better than you an I. I think within hundred years he can step into the god realm and become a pillar of our common people path…”

“Better than you and I?”

When the black shirt teen heard that he furrowed slightly,” the spiritual wave is about to hit the cloud world, a hundred years to step into the god realm is not bad. But there’s no need to treat him so well and record him under master’s wife.”

Wei Xu’s eyes flashed, thinking that reaching god realm in hundred years was only average speed.

However, if this person’s sword path was one with the spirit and spirit and martial arts merging as one, then he was exceptional. No, he should be unique.

Even that god-emperor in the future wouldn’t be much better.

Although his few senior brothers and him were direct disciples of the common people path, none of them could obtain the true legacy of Xi Zi. These few years to find a suitable successor they searched all worlds and spent so much effort every year.

If they knew that such a top talent was given to their master’s wife’s line, one could imagine what the outcome would be.

Slightly shifting away from his gaze in guilt, Wei Xu suddenly waved his sleeves and a chessboard appeared. The black and white pieces were scattered and the black side was obviously at a deficit.

Just as the teen showed signs of not understanding, Wei Xu opened his mouth, “When I received the message to come over to the cloud world I was playing chess with that person. During that game, I was the black side with the first move…”

The black shirt teen’s eyelids jumped, thinking that he couldn’t bear to look anymore. It was obvious that he was slaughtered.

His junior Brother was a dumb chess addict without skill, however, he still ran around asking people to battle him.

In the next moment, he saw a white piece appear on the chessboard. His voice also became leisure, “I was meant to lose but just didn’t want to admit it. Who knew that person would place the piece here! It gave one many thought…”

The black shirt teen’s eyes constricted, “What exactly is the identity of that person?”

Wei Xu knew that his senior brother wasn’t asking about the person he played chess with but his new junior brother. He didn’t hesitate, “He’s called Zong Shou. He’s currently the Gantian Mountain Monster king. He grasps the power of a Monster race side in Donglin Cloud Continent.”

“Gantian Mountain?” The black shirt teen seemed to have heard of that name before and was stunned, “Is he the son of Zong Weiran? Legend said he had obtained the book of eon extreme life, and then went missing in the oblivion cloud ocean.”

Wei Xu was also startled, “So Senior Brother has also heard of this person?”

“To be able to successfully chase the princess of the Lu family, how wouldn’t I know?”

That expressionless face of the teen revealed a smile, “I am connected to this matter so naturally, I paid attention to Zong Weiran. The rumors of the book of eon extreme life must be fake. However, he might not be dead in the oblivion cloud ocean. That place is said to be a dead zone, but as long as one grasps the method, one can enter and exit as they wish. When Zong Shou entered the sect did he wish for you to help him search the oblivion cloud ocean?”

“He didn’t! Maybe he doesn’t know that his father hasn’t died!”

Wei Xu frowned slightly, however, a moment later he placed down the matter. Asking curiously, “I know senior brother Ming Yu’s personality. Today you must not have only found me because of junior Brother Zong Shou, is there any other matter?”

The black shirt teen expectedly nodded, his expression serious, “Not Long ago I had sensed that the god refined sword had some movement. When I rushed into the cloud world that movement stopped. That’s why I wanted to ask junior Brother if you sensed anything?”

Wei Xu was stunned once again. He didn’t suspect that Ming Yu’s senses would be wrong. But why didn’t he sense anything at all?

God refined sword out, blood wash.

Did this sword that the teacher prophesied that could let the common people path prosper once more, have a person that could obtain it?

And who was this person?

…

“Is this our Gantian Mountain City’s cloud ship?”

When he asked that question, Zong Shou was standing on a pier, quietly looking forwards at the giant ship floating in the cloud layer.

The pier was made of wood, stretching from the shore. Below it was dense. The rumbling fog, as well as the deep abyss at the bottom, couldn’t be seen.

If one fell from this place, one’s body would break into shreds. This was the biggest port within a few thousand miles of here. Its scale was no less than Gantian Mountain and was just a thousand miles away from the city. It was one of the 10 cities under the direct jurisdiction of Gantian City.

The port trading tax every year took up 1/20 of Gantian Mountain’s yearly tax revenue.

This place’s buoyancy was strong. The land geography could avoid storms and was one of the places where the reliable ship routes gathered, which was why merchant ships gathered here.

There were 2 types of ships that traveled in the cloud ocean. The first were ones with simple spiritual formations relying heavily on the buoyancy that the deep abyss formed, just the boats that the commoners used.

However, there were many areas within the cloud ocean where the buoyancy was uncertain and sometimes it could push the ships up ten thousand feet. Sometimes it could cause the ship to fall beneath the cloud ocean.

Which was why since ancient times to now, all merchant ships, as well as ships used to hunt cloud beasts, followed the long discovered trade routes to travel. Even in the future, it wasn’t an exception.

Another type would be those cloud ships with more complete spiritual formations. Only such types of cloud ships were able to soar in the cloud ocean. However, there were extremely low numbers of them. Moreover, when they sailed, the mind stones and beast crystals they consumed were around one stone for 3.5 kilograms. Normal people couldn’t afford it.

This was why only some sects could own them. Or powers like Gantian Mountain who used it as their cloud ocean hunting army ship.

In front of Zong Shou was that type. The biggest was 200 feet high, similar to a ten over story building and was thousands of feet long. There were a total of 250 ships. The aura they gave off was extremely majestic.

“250 giant tooth ships and one of them is for the ruler to sit on. It is made of floating orchid wood from the Central Continent. Not only is the ship body so strong that it could be compared to grade 7 beasts, but the buoyancy is also shocking.”

The person at his side speaking was a teen heavily dressed in armor, who raised his chin proudly, “There are also hundred three-tooth giant ships, 120 charging ships. They can carry a total of 200 thousand troops! Apart from which there will be 150 that need to patrol the area and can’t join in. These ships were all built by the former ruler. Even when compared to Taoyun City, it isn’t weaker!”

Zong Shou didn’t believe whether or not what he said was true. As he looked at these giant ships and entered deep thought. Until a “zi” explosion sounded out at the side of his shoulder as he jolted awake.

Looking out, he saw several larger sized dust particles being exploded by the lightning glow around his body.

This was one of the repercussions of training in the insight mysterious lightning body training art. With his current realm, he could barely reach the “down to the smallest detail” realm when he looked into his body. However, it was forced and could last for only 8 minutes.

Every time he practiced there would be a lot of lightning energy remaining that didn’t dissipate. They would naturally form in his body and he was unable to lead them out to be dissipated and gotten rid of.

Naturally, he had many gains. Just 3 times and the training of his body had reached another level.
