Chapter 70: Chapter 70 Wind Travelling Spiritual Bone

After they entered the city they learned that the City Lord of Cloud Saint City wasn’t within the city. The one in charge of matters within the city was another person.
However, the Martial Masters taking care of him were still really respectful. Even those Xiantian Masters didn’t dare to be arrogant. They directly arranged for his trio to stay in a place near the City Lord manor with heavy surveillance and even two Xiantian Masters protecting it. It was apparent that they knew about Zong Shou’s current situation.
This was exactly what he wanted, not needing to go out and meet people and eat. Over the next few days he hid in his room. When he had matters, he instructed Yin Yang and Chuxue to do things while he totally remained in the house.
First, he drew some diagrams for Yin Yang to take to the only weapon shop in the city with eight advanced spirit blacksmiths. Next, he purchased fifty custom-made talisman knives, as well as some weird spare parts, herbs and medicinal grass.
The talisman knives he wanted would be listed as high-grade talisman weapons. Even with all the ingredients present, the eight advanced spirit blacksmiths still needed half a month to complete the job. However, the other matters were done in a few days.
He made another simple list of pills and medicines, as well as some metals and elite beast bones to be used to feed Little Gold. Apart from that, there were a few random ancient books that people had no idea about.

He continued training the Great Blazing Sun Fist. Without the support of pills, Zong Shou bought several bottles of Cloud Whale Essence Oil to rub on his body.
Although the cloud whale was called a whale, it could fly in the air, freely traveling around the East Cloud Ocean.
Its wings were short and small, its flying speed far from that of birds. It was gigantic, however, and in the cloud ocean, apart from human whalers, it pretty much didn’t have any enemy.
Its bones were really light, but tough, like steel forged a hundred times. This Cloud Whale Essence Oil was taken from it’s bones, adding in some spirit herbs and crafted. It was a top bone-training medicine. The effects wouldn’t let a person soar right to the top, but it wouldn’t leave any after-effects.
Every time that Zong Shou rubbed the oil on his body, he felt like his entire body was on fire. Moreover, every time he did a set of the Great Blazing Sun Fist, he would only feel really comfortable, the feeling unable to be described with words.
However, the effects of the bone training weren’t that apparent.
“‘Martial arts internal training, training foundation and breathing, training bone and marrow, training vital energy and blood, training the organs, training the skin. This bone and skin training is the toughest! The skin can’t handle force, which is why it is the toughest to train, so one can only use pills or over a long period of time to strengthen it. This bone training, due to it being tough and closely packed, even medicinal herbs can’t seep in. Normal herbs are ineffective…”
——
Training bitterly for three days, his progress was really slow. Although he wasn’t discouraged, he had given up hope on further improving his Chakra Meridians.
On the other hand, his soul power was increasing by the day. With the Energy Swallowing Technique and Sky Mirror Soul Shining technique, he grew really quickly.
The last time he broke through was twenty days ago. In just a short time he had already reached the peak of the Soul Observing Realm.
However, Zong Shou still wasn’t satisfied.
“Fifteen days from now, I should be able to perfect the Focus Concentration Realm, but this bone training will take at least two months, it’s too slow. To be able to protect myself, I think I still need to rely on those items. Although the speed is a little inappropriate, I can’t care too much now…”
This Cloud Saint City was really close to that place. Zong Shou was filled with unbelievable craving, but he was still able to calm himself down and continue training and meditating.
He specially flipped out an aura consolidation art to be trained together with the Energy Leading art and the Great Blazing Sun Fist.
This method was created by people in the future. Usually it would lock all the energy inside one’s body and not waste any, using internal breathing to lead and direct the vital energy to train the bones. However, this aura consolidation art was for the future, for that item. It was a really important element.
The technique wasn’t difficult, and with the experience of his last life Zong Shou managed to train well in just a few days. With just a thought, he was able to keep and withhold his aura. Even Chuxue, who was learning together with him, could barely achieve the same.
——
Just as he reached the small success stage in the breath holding art, the weird things that he asked for were obtained by Yin Yang.
They were all made of cloud whale bones, so they were all white. Each of the parts were inreally weird shapes, the runes carved on them were all really special.
Chuxue and Yin Yang were really curious when they saw them but they suppressed their questions. Zong Shou’s face was filled with delight, joining up and combining all these pieces like there was no one around him.
Not long after, these parts were all combined into one. It looked like a human outline, just that the structure was slightly wider and it only had the legs and waist portion. Apart from that, there was an indentation at the waist.
Yin Yang, who was looking on quietly, said soberly, “Is this the mechanism technique?”
The bone in Zong Shou’s hands, although far from that of the sword puppets of Lingyun Sect, was obviously related to mechanisms and machines. No wonder the things he asked to be crafted were so weird.
“I call this the Wind Traveling Spiritual Bone and it is a type of external bone…”
Zong Shou smiled, putting the thing in his hand onto his leg, perfectly fitting his body.
He then stuck a Grade Two wind element beast crystal into the depression, activating the spiritual patterns carved on the cloud whale bones. Zong Shou felt his body become really light, and it was effortless when he walked.
He felt on cloud nine, jumping up, everything he did was smooth and casual.
Chuxue didn’t think much, only feeling that it was really unique and special. Yin Yang, on the other hand, was astonished. After observing for a long while, he nodded slightly, “What an idea, how exquisite! Congratulations, Prince. Although I don’t know what an external bone is, but with this item here, Prince can walk about as you like.”
The corner of Zong Shou’s lips rose. A design from the hands of ten-plus mechanism art grandmasters, how could it not be exquisite?
The so-called external bones were a branch of mechanism techniques in the future. They had developed to a pinnacle, where even people who had no strength, if they had a top external bone suit could carry a million kilograms of weight.
This Wind Traveling Spirit Bone was the most normal and common one. He specially made it to help him walk.
“Now I can freely walk about, not needing to worry about wasting stamina. However, this cloud whale bone is still a little weak. It is okay for walking, but when fighting the depletion of wind element beast crystals is too big…”
Zong Shou shook his head. Top grade external bones could naturally be used to fight. But this wind traveling set was designed for those people with body handicaps. Legend had it that whatever the terrain was, they could travel it like it was flat. Be it the wilderness or the plains, they could travel freely.
What was tragic was that although he wasn’t handicapped, he was no different from a handicapped person. Without carriages to replace walking, he would be tired after four hours of walking.
With this item, he basically didn’t need to use any strength and would be able to walk freely. Although it was slower than carriages, it was more convenient.
Although it is a little weaker, using it to obtain that item, it is more than enough, he thought to himself, before walking over and covering himself with a big robe. After concealing the Wind Traveling Spiritual Bone, he looked towards Yin Yang. “Uncle Yin, Xue’er and I will go out of the city tomorrow. This time you just stay in the city, you don’t have to follow us…”
Yin Yang was shocked, the chair behind him instantly shattering into pieces.He stood up immediately, but before he could speak, Zong Shou threw a few ancient books onto the table. “Uncle Yin, have you read the Desolate Records before? If you haven’t, do you know about the Cloud Desolate and Desolate Beast records?”
Yin Yang’s brow furrowed. The Desolate Records was a book that all kids in Donglin Cloud Continent read, so how could he not know? Records of Cloud Desolate and Desolate Beast records were really common, too. Why did Zong Shou suddenly raise the topic of these books?
