Chapter 999 - Seven End Realms?



Chapter 999: Seven End Realms?

With Saint Realm Venerables like Aokun and Aoyi controlling the Royal Demon God Shuttle, Zong Shou only took a few days to get to the Cloud World.

If they were willing and spent all their energy, they would be able to cross hundreds of small-sized worlds in just a day.

Even Zong Shou himself had decent movement speed now. Even if he didn’t use the Royal Demon God Shuttle, he was still able to cross dozens of worlds in a day.

His cultivation only needed to improve by a little and he would be able to cross World Barriers without a need to use the World Rivers.

When he was outside of the Cloud World, Zong Shou first sensed a dragon roar which came from Gantian Mountain.

“Oh? Is that the Saint Yin Dragon on Gantian Mountain, Country Protecting Saint Beast?”

Like it was welcoming him back, the dragon roar shook the void! It was really majestic.

A weird expression appeared in Zong Shou’s eyes. This dragon aura had the ability to fight against Saint Realm Venerables!

Thinking about it, he didn’t find it surprising. Based on what Kong Rui said, this Yin Dragon was born from the luck of Great Gan.

The stronger Great Gan became, the more its energy would nourish it. If Great Gan weakened, then it would too, and its soul would be affected.

At this moment, his Great Gan Celestial Dynasty occupied 77 worlds, and their land expanded by over 10 times.

For this Yin Dragon to have such an intense rise in strength wasn’t that surprising.

Especially with Tianfang World as a middle point, Great Gan’s country strength was all linked together.

Although Zong Shou was unable to feel much of that vast dragon aura, looking at how both Aokun and Aoyi were solemnly facing it, he knew that this Yin Dragon had decent strength within the Saint Realm.

To have such an unexpected Saint Realm helper was a huge surprise.

The second thing that he sensed was the Avici Throne.

This God Artifact Artifact Spirit could sense Zong Shou’s return and it was extremely excited.

At that moment, Zong Shou was instantly connected to the energy channel spreading out from the throne.

Instantly, there was a wave of extremely strong and vast strength which buffed his body.

He felt like he was omnipotent!

He felt like he had the strength to uproot mountains and part rivers…

That illusion lasted for just a moment before his face turned ashen white.

This King Path Energy was just too huge.

The worlds around Yuanlian World were all newly occupied. They were split into different countries that still hadn’t settled on capitals. The hearts of the people weren’t unified yet and as such the effects weren’t so apparent.

However, in the Cloud World this King Path Energy was like a flood that flowed into his soul.

Especially his Second Soul. Even with the Avici Throne mediating there and the Illusionary Heart Mirror and Nine Layer Golden Pagoda helping to suppress, that One Origin Soul Sword was changing on its own. The sword was golden in color and gave a noble look. On the sword body, the words Heaven Emperor appeared.

It took a few moments before Zong Shou was able to forcefully use Emperor Wind to suppress the King Path Energy that was continuously charging over to prevent it from spreading to the source of his soul.

“It seems like after this the main concern isn’t Lu Family Sky Burning Saint Dynasty but to find another treasure to suppress this King Path Energy…”

He subconsciously thought back to Tanjing. After the Tianfang World battle, Zong Shou threw him to the Sword Sect and Buddhist Faction. Who knew what had happened to him now?

Everyone would benefit if Yuanlian was able to advance into a large-sized world.

Zong Shou had other things to do now while those experts from Sword Sect and Buddhist Faction were all really free.

Thus, Zong Shou handed over duties regarding the Yuanlian World advancement to them.

Thinking about it now, he felt like that was inappropriate.

He felt that if Yuanlian World completed the advancement, the King Path Energy that gathered would change.

Although it wouldn’t charge right at his source, it would definitely affect his Dao Path.

“This is pretty much making a cocoon to restrict oneself, this is going to be problematic…”

A sense of anxiousness rose up in his heart.

Such treasures were tough to find and could only be bumped into.

What he first needed to do was to move the Avici Throne away to Yuanlian World.

He also needed to totally open up the dozens of worlds he controlled to allow their strength to be able to connect with one another without obstruction.

At that time, the Avici Throne would be able to manage and clean out all of the King Path Energy within the Celestial Dynasty.

Many random thoughts rose up in Zong Shou’s chest. That was until Aokun and Aoyi said goodbye to him.

“Within the Cloud World there are many Saint Venerables gathered. They have eyes on everything and will know about all kinds of changes. I can’t get too close. The battle hasn’t begun and I would lay in wait outside. You need to hide your identity and use your identity as Tanqiu to head back to Common People’s Vast Habitat. It is best if you don’t return to Gantian Mountain.”

Before Aokun left he casually reminded Zong Shou. Then a weird glow flashed in his eyes, “I heard that the location of the Book of the Universe location is still uncertain till now. There are still many Saint Realm Venerables fighting for it. Aoyi and I also intend to interfere. Who knows, we might be able to take a look at this book!”

Apart from Space Laws, the Book of Universe also recorded stuff about the Creation Dao.

Zong Shou’s heart was like a bright mirror and he knew that no matter whether the news about it was real or fake, whether it was a smokescreen from Wei Xu, that Aokun wouldn’t give up on it and would go over to take a look.

That was because his Existence and Destruction Dao needed this Creation Dao to perfect it.

Zong Shou drove his Royal Demon God Shuttle forward. He also started to try to control the surging King Path Energy.

“If I go all out, I should have strength comparable to half a step to Saint Realm. This is just at the barbarian land at the southeast of the Cloud World and the strength I can use in Yuanlian World is just a tenth of it. A top large-sized world is really not something that normal small and medium-sized worlds can compare to! However…”

Zong Shou’s aura changed once more. He stopped using the Emperor Wind Technique and that raging energy suddenly retracted.

He needed to not let other people know he used the King Path Martial Arts.

Thus, he could only use around 70% of his cultivation, barely maintaining Peak God Realm cultivation.

To further improve and have Saint Realm strength, he would have to make use of secret techniques. Just like he planned…

The closer he was to Cloud World, the more Zong Shou thought about Xuanyuan Yiren and Kong Yao. However, he knew that Aokun had spoken wise words.

Although he couldn’t return to the Cloud World, people from the Cloud World could come out to see him.

Xuanyuan Yiren and Kong Yao’s identities were too sensitive and each and every movement was the focus of attention.

Important subjects like Renbo, Zhang Huai, Zong Yuan, and Ren Tianxing were the same.

This was why a day later Zong Shou met Hu Zhongyuan in the World River roughly five worlds away from the Cloud World.

This fellow was the only one who no one paid attention to.

After not seeing one another for a short few years, this fellow actually stepped into Spirit Realm too.

“This was all because of Ruler’s Instant Space Dragon Hall which benefitted me a lot! Not only me, all the old people in Gantian all improved. However, I stepped into Spirit Realm first…”

Hu Zhongyuan gleefully explained, he was filled with delight.

After passing the Spirit Realm tribulation, one could be considered a celestial. One’s lifespan would also extend to over 3,000 years, so no wonder he would be so delighted.

However, he still remembered the serious matters as he said solemnly, “There seems to be a huge storm. Common People’s Path’s Three Sects and Six Schools have called back their disciples and are defending their mountains. Three days ago, someone saw the Confucian Temple in the Imperial Capital shining for an entire night. There were rumors that End Realm Saint Venerables had returned to the Cloud World. Seven were confirmed: Common People’s Path’s Yuanjing and Xiuguan, Taoist Faction’s Qingxuan Taoist Lord, Taihuang Taoist Lord. I also heard that Zhu Zi of the Confucian Sect returned. Demon Sect’s World Stepping Heaven Lord, Wushang Yuan Demon have all sent apparitions here. There are also some who we can’t find out about. There is also news that the three Heavenly Places have already opened.”

Hu Zhongyuan described, his face was extremely ugly. This was the first time he had faced such a dangerous matter.

Seven End Realm cultivators gathered in the Cloud World. This was something that only happened during the prosperous times of the Ancient Cloud World.

Any one of them had the power to turn the world on its head and even sink a Cloud Continent.

Once war began, any place that was swept by the storm would implicate even normal cultivators.

In the past, he was still thinking back to the ancient times when Spiritual Energy was abundant, but now that the Spiritual Wave was about to arrive, it made one terrified and nervous.

“At this moment, the situation in the Cloud World is a spark away from war. General Qiu and Commander Kong are really worried and have stopped attacking the southeast of the Cloud World.

“Instead, they used more troops defending the borders to face off against Great Shang to restrict them.”

When he said this, he shook his head bitterly, “I want to help Common People’s Path, but we can only at most restrict a portion of Great Shang.”

Zong Shou squinted and listened quietly to Hu Zhongyuan speak.

He already had a rough understanding of the situation in the Cloud World.

“World Stepping Heaven Lord, Wushang Yuan Demon?”

These two Demon Sect End Realm Saint Venerables didn’t come from the Cloud World but from the outer region during the Cloud Desolate Era.

The two of them weren’t outer region alien races who went to the Cloud World to pillage resources. Instead, they went to spread faith, taking some of the Cloud World people as disciples.

This was why in the later parts of the Cloud Desolate Era, after the alien races were chased out, their Demon Sect line managed to survive.

It also gave rise to huge problems, nearly opening up the connection between Cloud World and those chaotic worlds.

Even at this moment there were still some remnants of those chaotic factions beneath the Cloud World.

Demonic Energy corrupted and caused beasts to change and become much fiercer.

At this moment, the two of them came definitely not to help Common People’s Path.

There was also Zhu Zi. The End Realm Saint Venerable of the Confucians was pretty much the top of the Cloud World.

Even at this moment when there were two other Saint Venerables since Zhu Zi returned, then that person probably arrived too.

Thinking about this, his body felt cold and became covered in a cold sweat.

Apart from that, who knows how many Saint Venerables were staring at Common People’s Path with nefarious intentions.

“Zhang Huai said that this is a scheme, to use power to suppress, to cause Common People’s Path to breakdown. Such that Taoist Faction, Demon Sect, and the Confucians could act from within and cause them to be unable to go all out. It is just like how you forced Tianfang Guild into submission. I heard that many Spiritual Veins of Common People’s Path are already under the Taoist Faction and Demon Sect and many aristocratic families called back their children who are in Common People’s Path. Oh right…”

Hu Zhongyuan suddenly recalled something and took out a jade talisman.
