Divine Brilliance

In the last life, his sword heart was clear but that didn’t mean his heart was truly perfect and without any flaws at all.

There were some things that he had never gone through before and some things that he had never had.

What tied down the last Zong Shou was also tying him down at this moment. Yiren and Xue’er, in the last life there wasn’t anyone who treated him so well…

At that time, he was a lone sole, a random swordsman with nothing to his name. He was also unable to help himself obtain any way out or escape plan. Every time when he fought he would go all out to kill, either being forced or purposely placing himself in a dangerous situation. Only then was he able to live until now.

It was also because of that which was why he slowly stopped caring about his life. A person who often fought on the tip of the blade, his fear of death was at the lowest point, seeing it as something that was really light.

If it wasn’t for his desire for the pinnacle of the sword path which was still unchanged, Zong Shou would even suspect whether or not he would become a walking zombie before he managed to reach the ascended realm.

At this moment his sword hesitated and became weak. His clear sword heart had its flaws.

However, this was also a good chance. If he didn’t go through all these he wouldn’t be able to fix all these weaknesses in his life.

The reason why Qingyin Sect would send their disciples towards brothels and whore houses to train focused on the same logic, to let their disciples experience life, training their heart and then forming their own path.

A few large inhale suddenly sounded out within the cave. Zong Shou finally remembered that there were still a few people that were alive that he hadn’t finished off.

His brows curled up as he walked beside Zong Yang. Who knows when did this kid breakthrough to the xiantian realm. After his chest was burst open by Zong Shou he still hadn’t died, breathing intensely.

When he looked at Zong Shou walk over, he only felt despair. A few moments ago he felt that this Zong Shou was definitely dead. 20 grade 7 experts, a few Xuanwu ancestors who were extremely famous. No matter what this fellow should have no chances of surviving.

However just as he felt gleeful, Zong Shou crushed his chest. Following which, he looked out at a slaughter with his eyes wide open.

A thick bloody sent charged into his nose. Mixing with the killing intent it made his brain blank out, feeling so disgusted that he wanted to vomit.

However, Zong Shou just looked coldly at him before turning around and leaving. Zong Shou felt his heart sink, feeling the intense pain in his chest disappearing with a thought.

“Don’t leave, kill me!”

Zong Shou only acted like he didn’t hear it, showing no intention to stop. Zong Yang’s chest was broken and about 30% of his organs were torn up. His spine was broken and his limbs couldn’t move at all.

Unless it was a celestial pill level medicine, if not even if the best medical saint in the cloud world helped he wouldn’t be able to be saved and could only bear the pain and die. As such he didn’t need to bother to continue to torture him.

Zong Yang wasn’t willing to wait some more, gritting his teeth,” I know the reason why Xue Shuifan came to this Dragon Gathering Mountain! He was invited by Xiong Yu along the way and decided to help out.”

When he heard that Zhong Shou’s brows furrowed as he stopped in his tracks. Thinking that this Xiong Yu invited so many experts over. The only goal of hers was to kill him.

What a princess.

Zong Yang was slightly delighted and thought that Zong Shou was interested in this matter. However, he didn’t dare to keep him in suspense, not waiting for Zong Shou to ask and directly saying, “Roughly a hundred years ago, a person known as venerable Xuanlang betrayed Canlang Ocean. Legend had it he took many treasures from Juelong City…”

Zong Shou’s brows curled up, showing a mocking expression. Treasure? Apart from

Those sects which accumulated for ten thousand years, in terms of private collection who could compare to him?

Those precious pills on the market were only there because he didn’t want to buy. Those spiritual artifacts weren’t suitable for him which was why he didn’t want to waste money.

Which was why no matter what that Venerable Xuanlang brought he wouldn’t care. However a moment later he heard Zong Yang say with much difficulty, “I heard there are ten odd spiritual artifacts all above grade 7, a few were specially crafted for the dragon race. Most of them were found by Juelong City, only the one with 9 drops of true ancient dragon blood wasn’t found.”

“True dragon blood?”

Zong Shou was startled as he muttered softly. No wonder so many people would enter this Dragon Gathering Mountain.

He only felt his right hand burn up. This lightning winged Yang snake since it viewed the wall drawings and sword marks it started to react.

With true dragon blood, this snake could immediately turn into a flood serpent, obtaining the bloodline of a true dragon. It might even shed its old body and make a new one.

“Yes! Legend had it that Juelong City obtained it when they slaughtered a true dragon tens of thousands of years ago and had kept it till today…”

Zong Yang was in so much pain that he was about to lose his mind. He didn’t dare hide anything, afraid that Zong Shou would just walk off.

His heart felt like there were millions of ants biting away.

Before this he viewed Zong Shou as an ant, as a piece of trash, not bothering about him at all. Now, he needed him to be able to end his life.

Be it schemes or personal ability, he had lost.

He was feeling slightly furious. If Zong Shou didn’t hide his strength then he would be the true pride of Gantian Mountain! Why would he even have had such thoughts of rebelling?

Even if he had any larger ambition, he would have to put it down!

He also hated that Xue family!

“Legend has it that after Juelong City wiped out that Venerable Xuanlang they spent numerous beast crystals to cast spells to search but they failed. Some people suspected that the blood of the true dragon was hidden here. Xue Shuifan came because he had actual news and even had a map such that he could definitely get it.

Zong Shou was enlightened. The dragon shadow old man secluded himself here and his intent remained, able to hide the aura of the true dragon. Hiding the blood here was indeed the best method.

He reached out with his hand and grabbed all of Xue Shuifan’s items. As expected there was a map drawn on jade. It was similar to the one Jin Buhui had given him. Only there were many more caves, especially at the top left. The parts where Haoxuan Sect left empty were all filled up.

The position of the true dragon blood was located in a tunnel on the top left.

Zong Shou didn’t know whether or not the map was real or fake, after frowning he asked curiously, “Since he had this map, why did Xue Shuifan Attack me instead of first searching for the blood. He shouldn’t be the only person with the news right.”

Zong Yang wasn’t surprised by the question, smiling mockingly, “Although he has a map, he can’t enter. Xue Shuifan spent 1 thousand grade 4 crystals for the map but in the end, it was fake.”

Zong Shou frowned, not believing it. Thinking about it, he flicked out with his finger, tearing Zong Yang’s brains to bits.

Personally watching this person die, he sighed. Within his soul, the portion belonging to that Zong Shou seemed to have disappeared.

He changed into a set of clean clothing. Whilst he threw away the bloody clothes, he touched his sleeves, following which he sighed helplessly.

Not long ago, to kill the 2 mutated demon crystal fire ant, this one with the mind, cloud flame flying knife with cloud shocking god destroying intent replicated on it, he had used up a total of 4 of them.

He only nourished 8 of such knives in these few months. The other 20 only had some slight connection and could barely change directions twice. It also didn’t have any sword intent on it, the strength was much different.

The situation outside of the caves was deceitful and fool of uncertainty, who knows whether or not he would be able to handle it.

Anyways this wasn’t a place he could remain at. Zong Shou stopped bothering, striding away with large steps away from the heavily injured people who were on the verge of dying.

However, one hour later when Zong Shou arrived at where he was first attacked, and he saw no signs of Zong Yuan.

Not only Zong Yuan, but he also had no idea where Gong Yue who was following along was at.

The only thing that made him feel slightly happy was that apart from 3 bodies and some hidden weapons scattered about, there weren’t any signs of them. It seems like these 2 people should be safe.

Zong Shou instantly felt his head hurt. To find the 2 of them in this interconnected cave was like finding a needle in a haystack, how difficult was that?

He could only shake his head, like what Jin Buhui said, everyone had their own fate and luck.

Who knows, Zong Yuan and Gong Yue might have their own fortuitous encounters after they left.

…

“Zong Shou!”

His martial path wasn’t on his fist. He punched out with all his strength, and instantly, his fingertips were covered in blood.

Yue Linghuan didn’t feel anything. The only thing he thought was that the pain wasn’t enough. He couldn’t suppress the hate in his chest as well as that bit of fear…

“Subject has never seen such a terrifying person in my life!”

The one who spoke was a grey-haired old man dressed in silver armor. His eyes flashed revealing a fearful gaze.

“Before this, I have seen that ascended realm and day wandering realm experts. However, I have never felt like what this person gave off. When the sword comes out one dies. When the fist comes out, one dies. His martial path skill is really high. Even ascended ancestors can’t compare to it. People like Xue Shuifan, even 3 of peak Xuanwu ancestors like me can suppress. However, we are unable to block 6 attacks from him…”

This silver armored old man was also a peak Xuanwu ancestor realm expert!

“…Return to Sun realm! He is only 14!”

The spirit master on the side smiled bitterly following which he said out the key reason why they lost this time, “If that was only the case, we wouldn’t have lost! We would be able to kill him. The key was he being decisive and vicious. His martial path needed success, or he would die, rolling the dice and not bothering about his own life or death. It was because of that that he could leave, the people around him had to die. Looking at that battle, his style was brutal and domineering. His moves were simple and clean. If one hadn’t been through a thousand battles, it would be tough for him to be like that! Those rumors are 70% true! How could Zong Weiran’s son be trash?”
