Chapter 407: Ten Thousand Form Lightning

“What a waste!”

It was like he had an itch that he couldn’t scratch. Zong Shou knew that he was at least lacking by 4 thousand merit points.

The merit points of the common people path were recorded in his sect keepsake, in that illusionary spell token.

If he had enough merit points, as long as he waved it towards the book, he would be able to see the contents within the book.

Sighing, Zong Shou placed the diamond realm dari rulai mantra back to its original place.

What he hated the most were these types of books which let people take a preview to wet their appetite.

He also felt really fortunate that within the common people path the Buddhism cultivation methods weren’t that popular.

The 5th rank was 50 points, the 6th was 300 points, the 7th was a thousand, the 8th earth crushing rank spirit master cultivation method was 3 thousand.

Based on the value on the labels, this grade 10 Buddhism secret technique was just a little higher than the grade 8 one.

Although 5 thousand points were a lot, it didn’t make one feel despair like the 100 thousand merit points of the great sky changing meditation technique did.

He was also slightly curious, following Zong Yuan’s gaze and looking over, only to see that there was a book placed there was the Ten thousand form lighting sutra

He knew about this book. After cultivating to a certain level, one would obtain a magical power known as the ten thousand form true lightning. But why did Zong Yuan want this item?

Asking right as the thought came to his mind, Zong Shou casually grabbed it, flipping this Taoist spirit master secret manual. However, he was only able to see a few pages.

“Zong Yuan, are you planning on learning this book?”

Only then did Zong Yuan come back to his senses, following which he said with a surprised tone, “Your highness has come!”

Following which he nodded, “That’s right! Didn’t your highness want me to learn spiritual cultivation? These few months I have been trying my best but my progress has been slow. Till date, I only reached the Concentrate Focus realm. I thought carefully about it so since I want to learn I can’t do it half-heartedly if I want to learn spiritual cultivation I had to learn it well. When I came over to the Technique Teaching Pavillion to search for suitable cultivation methods, I saw this ten thousand form lighting sutra…

Zong Shou didn’t give any reaction as he looked towards the label. It was a 9th rank support cultivation method that needed 30 thousand merit points.

Ten thousand form lighting sutra along with Zong Yuan’s current cultivation method was a great fit. However, 30 thousand along with his own 5 thousand, that would be 35 thousand merit points. How was he going to obtain so many merit points?

Walking out of this Technique Teaching Pavilion with worries in his head, Zong Shou’s eyes suddenly lit up. He saw Zhao Yanran walking over from the distance.

In his heart, he thought about how much of a coincidence it was and wanted to call out to this woman to get hold of some news. However, she had already directly walked over.

“Old Han at the Book Hiding Building said that I should come over to find you…”

Hanfang spent nearly every day guarding the Book Hiding Hall B, but apart from Zong Shou, no one in the common people path knew about his identity as 2nd generation core disciple, thus they could only call him Old Han.

At this moment Zhao Yanran’s expression was unusually complicated and ugly. Suddenly her palm flipped and a thin flame rose up from the center.

Zong Shou’s pupils constricted as he saw that, although the strength of the flame wasn’t as strong as his sky burning flame, but it emerged from one body and came from the same source.

This woman didn’t have the Lu family bloodline, so how could she have that? Was it because of that reverse cauldron energy seed host method? There was actually this level of benefits that even the power of the bloodline could be obtained.

The next moment he saw her look directly over right at him, “2 hours ago I was together with your maidservant and for some reason fell unconscious. When I woke up I realized that there were some more things in my body, I also cultivated one more true spiritual talisman.”

Whilst she spoke, she used her spiritual powers to draw in the air, controlling the heaven and earth spiritual energy to form a fire word.

Zong Shou felt envious as he looked on, thinking that this Zhao Yanran really had such a good life. This Seven Spirit Sect cauldron energy seed host was so exquisite. His cultivation had only a small breakthrough but it allowed this woman to have such huge benefits.

One true spiritual talisman was enough to cause Zhao Yanran’s spiritual cultivation to reach to the peak of the Return to Sun realm, the growth in soul power wasn’t something to be neglected.

However, he didn’t lose out in any way. Not long later he would most probably obtain Zhao Yanran’s feedback. The reverse technique worked like that, both sides would be able to benefit. However, the more this woman benefitted from him, in the future, it would be tougher for her to struggle out from his cauldron and out of his control.

Looking at the situation she was most probably exasperated due to this.

Smiling slightly, Zong Shou’s eyes were filled with a confused expression, “A magical power, a true spiritual talisman. This is a good thing, why is there a need to be so anxious?”

“It really was you!”

That Zhao Yanran’s expression instantly turned serious, following which it became darker and darker, “Within a day you formed 2 talismans and awakened the Lu family sky burning bloodline?”

Zong Shou smiled and didn’t reply. However, Zhao Yanran already understood what he meant, that he was acknowledging it. She took in a deep breath, “Spiritual cultivation proceeding too quickly isn’t a good thing! If you used external items there will be many repercussions in the future. You are my cauldron and we are already bound together, together as one. If something happens to you, it won’t be good for me either.”

Zong Shou was speechless, shaking his head once more, “Who says I used external items? Spiritual cultivation apart from your few spiritual seeds, I have never used any external help. Speaking of which, you seem to be a little disrespectful today…”

Not using external help wasn’t a lie. Although he had the dragon essence and lightning phoenix essence energy, the spirit salamander essence blood but most of it was to strengthen his physical body.

That Zhao Yanran exclaimed and was dumbfounded. He didn’t use external items, how was that possible? How did this Zong Shou not use external powers and form 2 talismans within just 1 day?

In other words, the fellow in front of him didn’t rely on external help, using just 2 years to go from grade 1 spirit master to the peak of grade 6 Return to Sun realm!

He also even awakened the Lu family sky burning bloodline to such a level!

Suddenly she felt regretful, only sensing that the mental connection between the 2 of them was getting closer and closer. That seed within Zong Shou’s body was like a dense spiderweb that would wrap tightly over her such that she wouldn’t be able to get out.

At the start, although she was filled with a fighting spirit, she was a little arrogant.

Forcefully suppressing the shock in her heart, Zhao Yanran realized that she was indeed a little out of place.

She asked curiously, “Then what is with your maidservant? Although her cultivation isn’t much, her fighting intuition is surprisingly strong. Her talisman methods are a total mess but in terms of the martial path she is actually on the same level as me…”

Zong Shou smiled, this Zhao Yanran was asking so many questions today.

“Have you heard of something called the combat martial body?”

One word shook Zhao Yanran so much that she got distracted. Zong Shou was lazy to waste more time with her and he directly asked, “Do you know how we can earn merit points in the common people path?”

Zhao Yanran was at a loss, combat martial body, this was a body that was no weaker than the top talents of the world!

Legend had it that a person like that would have a combat intuition was scarily strong. Even during the cloud desolate era it was one of the god bodies and craved by the numerous sects.

Speaking of which that little brat had given off some signs at the start, her intuition was scarily strong. Zong Shou also placed so much emphasis on this girl.

Why didn’t she notice this before?

It wasn’t until Zong Shou impatiently waved his hands in front of her face did she come back to her senses. She thought back carefully, searching her soul to remember what Zong Shou had asked just now.

“The methods to earn merit points in our common people path is really simple, help the sect kill and you will be able to earn much merit points. But within this vast habitat, it is a little problematic. One method is to refine pills and refine artifacts. The other way is to help teachers lecture or help and nurture people from the same sect. The last sect would be to use other cultivation methods or books of value to exchange with the sect.”

Zong Shou had an idea and thought about his nine types of true dragon sword techniques. As a grade 7 cultivation method, it could be exchanged for 7 thousand points.

In the next moment, he heard Zhao Yanran say expressionlessly, “There is also an even simpler way. Has your highness heard of the border river?”

The so called border river was also called the spirit river. It wasn’t a real river but within the barriers separating spaces, there would often be huge spiritual wave surging and flowing. As the spiritual energy was extremely bountiful, pretty much able to gather and turn into physical form, which was why it was known as the spirit river.

However such huge amounts of spiritual energy would naturally attract some things. Good and bad were all gathered together. Some special beasts, demons and monsters, various evil and dark beasts all mixed together.

Some evil beings with special abilities could even forcefully break their way through space barriers and get into the cloud world.

What Zhao Yanran said about the easiest method would be to repress that border river. The sect had specific merit point missions to stop and hunt evil beings. It was said that one grade 6 evil being would provide a hundred merit points. Apart from that one could obtain materials from killing all sorts of beasts and demons which they could either use for themselves or sell to the sect in exchange for points.

Sometimes when one was lucky, one might even obtain special treasures unique to the spirit river.

The common people path had a Merit Hall where the sect published out missions and disciples obtain their mission rewards. Before Zong Shou left, he specially came to this place to take a look and find out more about it.

As expected, there was one about suppressing the border river. However, to accept this mission one at least had to be the peak of grade 6 which Zong Shou and Zong Yuan barely reached.

However, the rewards were really great. 20 hours and one could obtain 100 merit points. Behind there was a long list which wrote the merit points one could get from killing these evil beings. It also recorded the features of these beasts and evil beings, their strengths and also their weaknesses.

There were a total of 4 thousand of them, and there were also many which were question marks with only pictures. It was obvious that the people of the common people path still didn’t recognize the background of these evil beings.

Zong Shou took a close look several times before patiently memorizing them all. Only then did he proceed towards that border river together with Zong Yuan.

Just by walking south from this common people vast habitat and they would enter a place where the spiritual energy here was exceptionally thick.

There was no mountain or water around, only a piece of darkness. He couldn’t touch the ground beneath him and they could only travel in the air.

Zong Shou gathered spiritual energy in his eyes before he could barely see something. However, what he saw in front of him was emptiness.
