“Keke, so it is barriers set by the heavens! I got scared and thought that this was going to be tough…”

Pretty much at the same time within the carriage, Zong Shou let out a sigh. He only felt his senses become comfortable and his mood was indescribably relaxed.

After the battle with Li Yaling, not only did his sword path and Heart Realm have much improvement, because of him fully focusing his mind and all of his energy being forced by that killing sword, the potential within his body also had a small burst. With the Xiantian essence energy of the Lightning Phoenix egg, it directly turned into true qi, which flowed into his body.

With only a day and night of cultivation, he was able to open up a small portion of his Eighth chakra meridian, and thirteen acupoints.

All the acupoints within his body also became much more active. His vital energy had greatly increased, and he was finally able to see that layer of “obstacle”.

A human body had three places which were able to connect to Heaven and Earth. One was the umbilical eye, which one was born with. If one didn’t cultivate, this umbilical eye would slowly close up and become unable to absorb spiritual energy from Heaven and Earth.

The other side would be beneath his legs, known as the Earth gates. One was able to sense spiritual veins of the Earth and borrow the spiritual energy. This was known as the Xiantian Realm, where one would be even able to merge those small spiritual veins into their bodies.

The Third would be the Sky Gate at the top of the head. When one opened this up, one would be an Ascended Ancestor. Just raising one’s hands would have enough power to shake the mountains and the earth. Like that, Lei Dong was able to cut a deep mark on the Sky Mirror Mountain with just a casual wave of his blade.

At that Realm, one’s destructive ability was simply too huge. Moreover he would be able to live for a thousand year. Compared to normal people they would be like gods, like how ants looked at humans.

The Cloud World sects and aristocratic families had an agreement that once one reached the Ascended level one would need to put down everything and not participate in the conflicts of the five continents and twelve islands.

When martial cultivators trained and their bodily chakra stage was completed, they would need to use all the energy of their body to break through the Earth Gate, leading Earth spiritual energy from the outside to the inside and training the chakra meridians, hence being called the Nine Earth Meridians. After the Earth Chakra was opened up, they broke open the Heaven Gate and borrowed the strength of the stars and the spiritual energy of the galaxy to wash their body.

Zong Shou’s Earth Gate and Heaven Gate were both completely blocked up, scarily firm and strong. They were like boulders, unable to be shaken, the so-called “barriers from Heaven”. People like him might not be able to break open the Earth Gate in their entire life.

This was the worst situation out of those that he predicted before.

However, that only referred to normal people!

“It seems like my unfortunate destiny didn’t turn even slightly better after returning to ten thousand years in the past. In my last life, my meridians were torn up and broken, given barriers from the heavens. In this life it is just as bad, he had dual meridians, his soul was tattered and he also had barriers from Heaven. Hehe! God, why are you treating me so badly?”

However Zong Shou didn’t have any dejection in his eyes. Instead he was really pumped up and filled with energy, sharpness he was unable to hide revealed in his eyes.

In his last life, he spent a full seven years toto open the Earth Gate, and then three more to smooth out the Heaven Gate.

If it wasn’t for these barriers from Heaven, it wouldn’t have been thirty-two years old before he broke into the Ascended Ancestor Realm!

In his last life, he was both useless and lacked help, relying on his indestructible toughness to solve all his problems. In this life, was there any reason he would be stopped by such a small barrier from Heaven?

With his experience from last time, the closed up Heaven and Earth Gates weren’t any obstacles in his eyes.

Which was why, although his martial path journey was still filled with difficulties and obstacles, Zong Shou only felt the heavy pieces of stone pressing down on his heart being moved aside, taking away all worries.

His thoughts were free and relaxed, the energy within his meridians also seemed to become more alive. However, he only used the true qi to complete a few small rotations before ending his cultivation.

After cultivating for a day and night, if he continued on he wouldn’t be able to see much improvement. His six minor organs’ training still lacked heat, and the foundations amassed weren’t enough, so he didn’t need to rush into opening up the Minor Organ Meridian.

With the barriers from Heaven in front of him, his path of energy cultivation couldn’t be rushed.

Zong Shou openedhis eyes and took out a white pearl, exactly the one he had obtained from what Li Yaling left behind.

Under the light, it seemed translucent and gave off a pure white glow.

In the eyes of outsiders, it was flawless. However in Zong Shou’s experienced eyes, he could feel threads of impure spiritual energy within it, not true purity.

“That Li Yaling might be poor, but this item alone could account for three Human Pinnacle Pills. How did he obtain it? If he could merge this item into his blood sword, I would probably have had no chance of winning…”

This item was known as the Spirit Summoning Vein Pearl, a really common name. It was formed from the energies of earth spiritual veins.

It could strengthen Spiritual Weapons and also help people above Xiantian cultivate, raising their true qi cultivation and their ability to sense Earth veins.

In Zong Shou’s hand was a pure metal element Spirit Vein Pearl, moreover it was a dual vein level one, a so-called Grade Two Metal Vein Pill.

Just as its name suggested, thedual vein meant that this Spirit Vein Pearl sealed up at least two metal element spiritual veins of exceptional quality, with very few impurities.

If it was mixed together with that blood sword, it would be able to raise it by a full Grade.

At that point, no matter how deep and skilled Zong Shou was in the martial path, he would have had no chances of winning.

Zong Shou was interested in it because this Spirit Vein Pearl could be used as an external pill.

That day in Cloud Saint City, Zong Shou didn’t mean to peak at Xuanyuan Yiren cultivating with that red and green spiritual pearl hanging in front of her. That was an external pill, which was also made from Spirit Vein Pearls.

Its quality was much higher, and with just his eyes and senses he could deduce that within it there were at least seven earth and six fire veins.

As for the one in Zong Shou’s hand, using it to craft an external pill was much too lacking.

Spirit Vein Pearl needed to have at least four veins to be good enough to become external pills.

However he had other methods which could utilize it.

“Although this metal element Spiritual Vein Pill is only Grade Two, far off from Xuanyuan Yiren’s external pill, it can be barely used for me. Who knows whether Little Gold could use it…”

Thinking about Xuanyuan Yiren, Zong Shou sighed once more. His brows hung low and his mood started to become depressed once more. The more he thought about it, the more awkward it was, and the more he worried about it.

Forcing himself to focus, Zong Shou started to place beast crystals around the carriage. The formations and talismans were drawn up at the Black Soil Swamp and he didn’t need to make many changes to it.

As for the beast crystals he placed down, they were all above Grade Three and were mostly of the metal element. There were also some earth, wind, fire, and the rarest lightning element beast crystals.

As usual he put out an incense table altar and that round ball of Little Gold at the center of the table.

Little Gold looked clueless, not understanding what was happening. It had used up a lot of its energy and was sleeping sweetly on Zong Shou’s arm, but now it was grabbed down by Zong Shou and was jumping around now, expressing its displeasure.

Zong Shou laughed, taking that metal element Spirit Vein Pearl and waving it in front of Little Gold. “Do you want it?”

Little Gold’s body shook, and it jumped around even more intensely, the message it sent out filled with eagerness and excitement. Like spitting out rubbish, it spat out that Green Wind Spirit Bead.

Zong Shou was unsurprised as he heavily smacked its head. “Then be well behaved and sit here and not move! If you aren’t able to take it, you might lose your life. When that happens, even I won’t be able to save you!”

Who knows whether or not Little Gold understood or not, but after Zong Shou said that, its jelly-like body lay flat on the table and it didn’t move at all.

Zong Shou’s expression turned solemn. He lit up three sandalwood incenses to help calm himself down and focus his mind.

He started the spiritual chants and the formation under his feet was activated. Threads of essence energy seeped out from within the beast crystals and gathered towards Little Gold.

In just a short while, its round body was dyed in five colors.

Zong Shou used one hand to press onto Little Gold’s head and activated the Heaven Swallowing Energy Conversion Technique.

This time he didn’t absorb it into his body, but used the Eighteen Cloud Shocking God Destroying sword intent to cut open all the impurities. He then used the World Shocking Spiritual Art to activate his spiral energy and stir it up. After cleaning and purifying it out, he injected it back into Little Gold’s body.

This was to help it reduce the pressure. Even if this fellow had a natural body-purifying ability, it was too slow compared to the amount of energy it was absorbing.

As time went on, the five colors on Little Gold became brighter and brighter. It was brightly colored, looking really nice. Its body also swelled up an entire size, looking really fat. Its skin was also really smooth, making it look quite cute.

However, Zong Shou’s brows were furrowed, and knew that it was the essence energy that was forcing its body to expand. The current Little Gold was feeling extreme pain.

Luckily those beast crystals were breaking apart one by one and had reached their limit. It was up to this little fellow whether it was able to digest all the energy.

He couldn’t help it out now, so Zong Shou sat silently at the side and waited patiently.

Actually such methods of growth were good for spirit beasts, but for Protector Spirit Beasts with a body it didn’t have any benefits. At the start it might swiftly improve, but it would find it tougher and tougher to improve as it went on, just like martial cultivators.

However Zong Shou had no choice now. If he wanted to have the ability to protect his life, he had to use this method.

“When I return to Gantian Mountain, I will settle the matter. After which, I will have to take a trip to that place, although it doesn’t have any benefits for me, but it could help Little Gold and Little Zhi’s strengths increase greatly. With that thing, Chuxue can also improve her cultivation. As for the Demon Eye Silver Bear, even if spirit beasts went it would be useless…”

Just as he was contemplating in his heart, Zong Shou looked forwards, only to see smoke seeping out of Little Gold’s body.

His brows couldn’t help but rise as he knew that they had succeeded today! His palm sucked out all the energy that Little Gold was unable to absorb. He directly threw it out of the window, giving rise to an explosive burst.

Turning his eyes back to the little fellow on the incense table, its body still hadn’t contracted and it looked dispirited. It was so fat that just moving slightly was difficult for it.

However that five-colored glow was so faint until one couldn’t see it anymore. Little Gold returned to its usual silver-white color.

Zong Shou smiled, throwing over the metal element Spirit Vein Pearl, which immediately merged into its body. Instantly a really sharp and strong energy rose within the carriage
