Divine Brilliance

Chapter 199: Potential Surging Out

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Till this date, Zong Shou had reached the initial xiantian realms. be it the six god defensive knife technique or his sword techniques. he could use a certain amount of strength.

However, what he was looking forward to most was still his sword embryo.

His recent energy cultivation proceeded especially quickly. However, no matter how fast it was it couldn’t exceed that of his spiritual cultivation.

Increase in soul power pretty much Everyday, even with the help of the lightning Phoenix egg Essence, it couldn’t keep up. Pretty much every 10 days he could get to a new stage. The strength of the soul would cause this one energy sword to become stronger and continue to grow.

Using his intent to control it for a moment to cause that lightning winged sword to slowly coordinate with this illusionary spirit sword.

Zong Shou started meditating and started to draw true charms in his soul ocean.

Pretty much in an instance, a rune formed along with his thought, mixing into the tune ocean. As compared to the speed from before, it was more than ten times faster!

However, such a situation had started since last night. Zong Shou wasn’t really surprised but only filled with questions.

“Weird! My true spiritual charm formation is so fast? These 2 days could be compared to the last 2 months! If this goes on I only need a few days to form a true spiritual talisman. It is like the potential of my soul has exploded out. But yesterday, apart from beating the 3 of them, I didn’t do anything. Did I have an intense battle with that Zhu Junhou? But with his cultivation, if I was unable to suppress him with the element of surprise from the start I would definitely lose and be pressured by him instead. This thing is so weird...”

Zong Shou shook his head silently, continuing to keep his thoughts and meditate. Once 4 hours was up, ten true spiritual charms were floating in his soul ocean. He was not far away from the next true talisman. The potential that was awakened showed no signs of weakening.

More surprising was that his soul was strong. It has no repulsion with the true qi that was flowing about in his body.

Although they couldn’t be said to be one, they didn’t repel one another. Each of them just left one another alone. The conflicting strengths of the two powers had lowered and reduced his problems. His cultivation had immediately showed signs of soaring ahead.

However, Zong Shou was worried that it was too quick and inappropriate, temporarily stopping. He started to turn towards his soul, at the “fire” and “water true spiritual talismans that were tugging at the 12 god seeds outside of the soul ocean.

One could notice small threads stretching out from those true spiritual talismans and connecting with those god talisman seeds. Especially the fire and water words which were close. They were being pulled step by step into the center of the soul ocean whirlpool.

This was the process of merger. The moment it was completed. Zong Shou’s fire and water element spiritual cultivation could immediately increase to the god talisman level. Even now, the strength of his spells was increased by half.

The entire process took half a day. Once Zong Shou finished, it was already noon.

When he opened his eyes, he saw Chuxue who was sleeping on the bed waking up in a daze.

She stared at Zong Shou with her huge eyes for a while before remembering what happened before she lost consciousness. Her face flushed red and screamed before she wrapped up Zong Shou’s blanket and crazily ran outside.

Zong Shou laughed when he saw that before he stood up.

His soul was not the only one whose potential got brought out. There was also this body. It was like it went from a stream into a river, endless sources of energy surged from deep within his body.

He took a blood sun pill that could help strengthen his energy and blood, increasing vital energy of the body.

He also took one each of the vast spirit pill and the nine refined pure jade pill.

The former was used to train the body whilst the latter was to increase the absorption ability of spiritual energy from heaven and earth for a short period.

Zong Shou first used the 4th set of energy leading technique to merge the medicinal powers into his body.

When the spiritual energy around him suddenly increased, he started to ferociously wave his fists, valiant and intense. It was no less than that great Blazing sun fist, causing this 9 story building to shake. A step out was 5 thousand kilograms of weight. Luckily the building was supported by 12 300 feet Long giant wooden pillars and the floor was really solid, made of tiannan wood that could be used as elite steel. This was why it was fine.

This was the demon rhino armor fist, another body training fist art.

Zong Shou had learned many-body training fist techniques. There were 30 odd pinnacle ones but he had only chosen 4 from them.

...Foundation breathing spiritual fist, great blazing sun fist, Five Round Enlightened King Fist, demon rhino spirit armor fist.

These 4 sets of fist techniques were interconnected, including training foundation and breathing, training vital energy, training the organs and training the skin. All 9 meridians within the body were all included inside!

Be it training internally or externally one could use it till the 9 heaven chakra meridians. Amongst which the great blazing sun fist and the demon rhino spirit armor beast themselves came from the monster race. As for the other two, they were Buddhist special techniques which didn’t clash with the bodily structure of the monster race.

And this demon rhino spirit armor fist was used to train the sky, bones, and tendons. It was said that if one trained it to the peak, the skin of the person would be like the armor of the demon rhino, extremely sturdy and strong, not bothering about all grade 7 and below spiritual weapons.

If one’s body and vital energy were stronger, defending against grade 8 spiritual weapons wouldn’t be impossible!

Along with this spiritual fist method being used, that nine refined pure jade pill was slowly merging into the skin, causing Zong Shou’s body to give out a jade white color, looking transparent like it was made of jade.

Although the spiritual pill was grade 3, it was a rarely seen body training pill, one of the secret legacies of the Pill Fountain Sect.

It could cause the user’s skin to turn jade color and if one continued to use it, it could return to his normal skin color.

After several months, the skin color would go through 9 changes until one’s skin would become different and be 5-10 times stronger. The skin would be as strong as steel, tough for knife and sword to hurt it.

At that moment, the demon rhino spirit armor fist came into effect. Outside of his body, he seemed to be wearing a layer of iron armor.

That was a wave of vast spiritual energy that was being led into the body, mixing with the true qi. Within his chakra meridians, they were throbbing and expanding, pushing open the narrow portions and cleaning them out, expanding all the meridians and also helped to compress Zong Shou’s true qi.

His vital energy was also boiling as it drew the yang energy of the blood sun pill in.

Breaking the bodily chakra and reaching the earth chakra, all the meridians in the body were without any obstacles. What was important now was to expand the meridians and increase the strength of the true qi.

The former needed days and months of accumulation whilst the latter would be to train and compress the energy, increasing the yang energy within to make it purer. On the other side, would be amassing a more vast and more fitting martial path intent which could similarly cause true qi to gather.

Zong Yuan was able to kill martial ancestor experts at the peak of xiantian due to him having already comprehended the strength of the martial path and could explode to martial ancestor strength in a short time. The reason why he was unable to breakthrough was also due to the weakness in his martial path.

Zong Shou had his martial path cultivation of the last life and he had nothing wrong on this aspect. What he lacked was the training of true qi.

Next would be bodily training.

He had trained his fist in the whirlpool, his body was so strong it could compare to peak xiantian. However, at this moment he was seeing explosive growth—not only because of his bodily potential, which was at a prosperous state—but also because the effects of the pill were simply terrifying.

Although the lightning phoenix essence was good, it was far from Xuanyuan Yiren’s pills which targeted to strengthen the body.

“As expected, it is a high-grade pill! However, the increase in my yang energy in my body actually couldn’t influence the soul. Why was there suddenly such a huge change...”

A cultivator of the soul was most worried about the yang energy and corrupting items and impurities. The former was in total conflict with the ying soul whilst the latter could corrupt it.

This was why the best way for people beneath the Return to Sun realm to cultivate the spirit would be to use black dog blood etc.

However, at this moment, Zong Shou’s dual cultivation didn’t affect him in any way.

“Forget it! This is also a good thing. Today spells and true qi are proceeding swiftly. Anyways I still need to wait for Yiren to make those pills so I will stay tens of days in Xuan Mountain City why not focus and cultivate for a while. Who knows at that time if my cultivation could reach another level. On the martial path, each step was tough. However, in terms of spiritual cultivation, he was greatly successful...”

When that demon rhino spirit armor fist was trained to the top, a layer of earth element spiritual energy covered his body.

However, at this moment, his eyes only slightly got distracted. He only needed tens of days to form the next true spiritual talisman, with today’s speed.

The number of true spiritual talismans and charms directly affected the strength of the illusionary spirit sword forging technique. His one energy sword could become stronger!

Unfortunately, although he had a sword embryo, it wasn’t suitable for sword and soul cultivation. Even if he wanted to self create he didn’t have much experience. What that worry, those 2 people harmed him so much.

Be it the five pinnacle sword or the Luminous Spiritual Energy Sword, he didn’t know what to pick...

...

Whilst Zong Shou was grumbling endlessly...

In an unknown world, in the unknown space in someplace.

A white robbed teen was sitting in front of a chessboard. Black and white chess pieces filled the crisscrossing chessboard. However, across him, there was no opponent but a deep giant chasm.

However, every time this teen placed a piece down, a mysterious strength appeared in the deep chasm controlling a white chess piece to fall on the board.

If it was someone who knows about the way of chess was here watching, one would notice the difference between the two was giant.

A giant dragon was just a blink of an eye away from being slaughtered. That white piece had no chance of being able to overturn this situation.

However, that white robbed teen was still smiling happily, like he didn’t bother about winning or losing—like he was in his world.

After a short while, as expected, a full 20 black pieces were pulled out by the external force in the lake and thrown to the side.

On the contrary, a cold laugh broke out of the pond, “In the human race there are many who don’t know how to play chess. But you are simply a person who isn’t skilled but likes chess, how rare. This game is already clear but you don’t want to admit defeat, what is the point?”

That voice seemed to come from a woman but brought with it a few metallic properties. However, it was extremely nice to listen to.

The white robbed teen opened his ears and revealed and enjoying expression. After which he shook his head, “Although I seem to be losing in this chess game if I don’t continue and finish this, how would I not know if there is any sign of life at the back and if I, could turn defeat into victory? So why would I admit defeat?”
