Chapter 234: Chapter 234 Spirit and Martial Arts Merging Once More

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

“That spear seemed to be the spirit and martial arts merging into one?”

Zong Shou squinted his eyes and carefully thought back to the feeling before. No, it was still lacking. Not long ago, he didn’t use the magnetic force of lightning to push forwards the spears. He also had to stimulate his true qi and muscles, resulting in being able to stab out 234 times.

If he was truly at that level, then he could even hit a thousand. The strength all the more wasn’t something he could control. His strength at that moment could be compared to the peak Xuanwu ancestors.

Within these thousand feet, everything would turn to dust and sand.

However, it was true that this soul power and spiritual energy from heaven and earth wasn’t conflicting with his own vital energy. Compared to a few days ago, it was much closer.

A simple explanation would be that in the past soul power and true qi was like one plus one equals 1.5, but now, it equaled to 2 so naturally, his strength increased greatly.

If this went on, he might really have some hope to truly merge the spiritual and martial arts…

Delightfully thinking about his strength would increase, and how he would become king of Donglin Cloud Continent, he mocked himself. This coordination of soul power and true qi wasn’t difficult. When he breaks into the heaven chakra realm, he could slowly achieve that.

But to merge the 2 into 1… Even an expert who had stepped into the celestial realm was far from it. There weren’t even very many saints that could do that.

As for himself, his martial path was okay. However, his spirit master roots were really shallow. As such, he didn’t need to dream anymore. He couldn’t do it even if he wanted to.

Zong Shou focused his energy and a flame suddenly spat out. It was actually a silver-white flame, similar to the one which was on Xiong Kui’s body. Apart from the color being slightly dimmer, and had the symbolic spiral true qi, there was no difference.

Xiong Kui who was half-kneeling on the floor, his eyes opened wide, “This is the emperor flame spiritual art! Where did you learn it from?”

Suddenly he thought of something and his eyes were filled with shock, looking right at Zong Shou. He said it word by word with high difficult, “Was it just now? From the 6 times that we engaged?”

At that moment not only Xiong Kui but even the few people around were startled. In just a short while of fighting, he managed to totally deduce a top-secret technique. Even spiritual grandmasters couldn’t do that, right?

Talent like that wasn’t human at all!

Zong Gang and Zong Yuan were feeling weird. How did Zong Shou have such terrifying sword techniques and also some knowledge into the spear?

At this moment, they were enlightened. To be able to deduce a close to perfect top-secret technique in tens of breaths. If such a person focused on the sword path, after training for a few years to reach his level, didn’t seem like something that couldn’t be accepted.

Towards the looks of shock from everyone, Zong Shou disregarded them. He started to research and test out the new technique. It took an hour before he was able to keep the flames in his hand.

He was still deep in thought. The reason why he wanted to learn this technique from Xiong Kui was because of Yiren and himself. This emperor flame spiritual technique was passed down from the cloud desolate era and was one of the strongest fire element techniques. Not only did it help him perfect his world shocking spiritual art, but it could also help him perfect Yiren’s cultivation method.

As for the ancient Monster emperor orthodoxy it was connected to, he didn’t think much about him.

In the library in the future, he didn’t see much detailed information on this aspect.

He only knew that in the future Blazing Flame Mountain also gave rise to a strong person. It was said that he inherited an ancient monster emperor legacy, not only was his martial arts strong, but he had elite cavalry that could compare with the blood cloud cavalry. Although there was only 2 thousand of them, it was invincible for a period.

During the spiritual wave era, it was really strong. It helped surprise Donglin Cloud Continent, causing many sects to avoid them, occupying 20 provinces.

However, although this person rose quickly, he also fell quickly. In a short 6 years, he fell. Lingyun Sect, which recovered a bit of their strength, gathered many experts of Donglin to kill him.

That person shouldn’t be this Xiong Kui, right?

Zong Shou regained his senses, looking forwards at this Blazing Flame Mountain prince which was covered in blood.

Then, he shook his head slightly. It was said that when the Blazing Flame Monster king died, he had 149 fists, 221 swords, and numerous spear and knife injuries.

Before death, he still fought with all his strength. Only after he slew 2 ascended ancestors did he die smiling.

Although the image of Xiong Kui was correct, the aura he gave off was different.

This fellow wouldn’t reach that state. When he had read the records of that person, he was really impressed. No matter what he couldn’t link this Xiong Kui with that person.

He couldn’t help but laugh. Only then did he notice the shock in the gazed of everyone around.

He was first startled before having sort of an understanding a while later. He couldn’t help but frown, not knowing how to explain. Should he tell them that he had seen this technique in the last life and that book had half of the contents?

Thinking about it actually, this wasn’t a bad thing. He acted like he didn’t know, keeping his sword and looking at Xiong Kui deeply, “This matter is done, we can leave! As for this fellow let someone treat him. If he still hasn’t died, let him draw out the city defense blueprints before catching up.”

After speaking, he casually walked towards the direction of the carriages.

Chuxue was at a loss. After a moment she hurriedly chased up, her face looking weirdly, “Young master you really not going to care about him? It is not bad that he won’t flee. Will he even catch up, is he that dumb?”

Zong Shou smiled, asking Zong Gang, “If Uncle was Xiong Kui, would you follow?”

Zong Gang didnt fake his thoughts and just shook his head, “yes!”

His expression was complicated as he looked at Zong Shou. He was happy but also felt unfamiliar. In an instant, it felt like the ruler had come back alive. He remembered the past when his Brother had talked to him with such a tone.

It was gentle but filled with dignity, expressionless whilst also confident, filled with killing intent and decisiveness.

After slightly losing focus, he kept his thoughts and explained, “Him revealing the city defenses is just a small matter, but this emperor flame spiritual art is not. If that person in Blazing Flame Mountain found out, even if he is his Son, he would kill him! Apart from following us there, he has no way out!” Whilst he spoke, even he didn’t notice that his tone was filled with respect, like when Zong Weiran was still alive.

“So even if we let this person flee it’s still okay.”

Zong Shou smiled, using his fingers to flick Chuxue’s brows before casually asking, “Oh right! Uncle Gang went to oblivion cloud ocean, so do you know if my father is dead or alive? What’s the situation there?”

Zong Gang’s body jolted, filled with shame and hatred. After a short while, he clenched his fists tight and gritted his teeth, “Zong Gang is useless. I went there for numerous months and don’t know if the ruler is dead or alive. I only know that there are many ascended ancestors defending it. I tried to infiltrate but right at the outside I was forced out…”

After slightly hesitating, Zong gang ripped his sleeves on his left hand. The meat and muscles there were rotten. It was healing but that green-purple color and the blood with pus was terrifying. Zong Gang smiled bitterly, “This was only at the outside when I was harmed by a grade 6 blood turning scorpion. Legend had it that not only were there many poisonous items, but there were also many grade 7 and 8 beasts. With my estimation, I think the ruler is most probably dead.”

Zong Shou first frowned before calming down. Zong Gang really went there, and he didn’t just search on the outside.

He was really loyal to the death to Zong Weiran. However, at this moment, he didn’t care about the 20 thousand personal troops of Zong Weiran and lead the thousand black fox cavalry into the oblivion ocean. One could see he wasn’t a talent that could guard a region. He was only a general, not a commander.

If it wasn’t for Zong Weiran’s trusted people being recruited by others, the past Zong Shou might have more chance to live.

Zong Shou only let this troops, which had increased to 5 thousand cavalry, rest up for a night in the Ruohai Straits before setting off once more.

Different from a day ago, the Xuan Mountain cavalry were all in high morale and were on cloud nine. The expressions they had when they looked at Zong Shou’s carriage was more gentle and also filled with respect.

It wasn’t because of the victory, but because Zong Shou ordered people to search for the corpses of the dead, personally burying and praying to them. When he bowed towards them in front of the stone Steele, it removed half of their grievances.

As for the remaining people, they all had beast crystal and mind stone rewards. Not only was it fair but it was also really generous. Anyone who participated in the formation charging was all given a heavy bag and also the pills they had obtained. Even those who defended the carriage formation were given huge rewards. As for those who died, their families wouldn’t need to worry about food and clothing.

Even those thousand black fox iron cavalry were given many rewards for killing the many spiritual masters and the 8 thousand elite armored warriors.

Even if their prince couldn’t cultivate and didn’t know spiritual techniques, at least he was generous and knew how to compensate his men.

However, what they didn’t know was that Zong Shou was in a daze staring at his money bag. Until the carriage left the Ruohai Straits did he sigh and look away.

Actually, compared to the energy destroying spirit upheaval talisman, these compensations weren’t much. Although he felt heart pained it shouldn’t be worth him acting like that.

What he was truly worried about was the future.

When heroes rose and Donglin Cloud Continent was covered in war every month and year, sects and cities filled with conflict. If he spent so much each time, how could he handle it?
