Chapter 1106: Spirit Fountain Use
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
“No one should have entered the main tomb yet, there is no rush…”
Zong Shou was worried, however, he still maintained a calm expression.
Actually to back out of the tomb now was the wisest choice. However, no matter what, he wouldn’t be willing to give up on those 12 Copper Men.
However, there was a strong enemy in their midst, and the chance of obtaining it was very low.
Instead, he was in danger of being surrounded and killed.
The Qin Emperor Tomb was like an enemy country, his King Path Martial Arts had no way of being used.
The only thing he could rely on, what could be used to go up against Saint Realm cultivators, was the Book of Eon.
He still didn’t know how strong Shen Yuexuan was. Yuan Wushang’s puppet could handle one person. Although Chuxue had God Artifact Blood Moon Blade, she couldn’t fight a true Saint Realm Cultivator.
To the side, there was the Demon Path Saint Lady Su Xiaoxiao who was in an awkward position.
She didn’t seem weak but since Li Biexue dared to lay out such a trap, how could he not have confidence at all?
Once they fought, Zong Shou knew that he would be the one to lose in the end.
Even if he won, it would be a tough victory. Half of them would be injured or dead, how would he have any more strength to deal with Zhongxuan?
Apart from the Book of Eon, there would be the three threads of Celestial Power in his body which he could depend on.
Thinking about this, he had an idea. He nearly forgot about the Darkness Blooming Cereus.
In the past, the cereus was naturally useless. However, once it was watered with the Creation Death Fountain Water, then it was something that was worth looking forward to.
When he thought about it, Zong Shou directly asked Shen Yuexuan, “Can you make that Nine Hole Life Essence Stone into an artifact fetus?”
“Artifact Fetus? Is Your Majesty thinking about using the power of this treasure?”
After Shen Yuexuan was a little stunned, he understood what was going on. He took in a deep breath and said, “It would be tough, mainly because there is no suitable flame. However, the stone has nine holes and is close to a natural God Treasure. I can try carving it and test out the Mohist Artifact Carving Technique…”
He knew that Zong Shou had the Book of Eon which could speed up time which was why he understood what the 100 days was about.
100 days was more than enough.
Zong Shou nodded when he heard this. The so-called Artifact Carving Technique was one of the branch techniques of the Mohists during the Cloud Desolate Era. They felt that all items had its own properties. One couldn’t forcefully change it and had to expand on what it was. Using carving to bring out the laws within.
Due to the high demands in materials and on the skills of the blacksmith, this technique was lost.
However, to use it on the stone was a great idea.
Even if its stats were damaged it was okay. Anyway, his life was more important. However, he would have to just apologize to Master Xuanshuang.
The stone that was made into an Artifact Foetus was something he could draw strength from. Although he didn’t cultivate the Source Life Spirit Breathing Technique, his World Shocking Technique had included the essence from it.
Maybe he would surprise them all.
Now the important matter would be to find a secretive spot where they weren’t affected by the formation and also not noticed. Then, he would turn the things he got this time into his own strength.
Zong Shou couldn’t help but raise his head and looked into the distance. He probably had to return to the fake tomb above.
At this moment, anyone with a slight amount of strength had already entered the main tomb.
That place should be safe and even if they were interrupted he would be able to deal with them quickly and not make any commotion.
That only left them with the Scent Stealing Spiritual Sense Bug…
It was also hard for him to avoid this tracking ability of the bug. However, what was good was that he only needed to avoid it for a day.
He executed it right away, with a thought, a purple-red sandalwood incense appeared in his hand.
Smoke spread all about. Zong Shou used his soul power to cover the five of them.
This was another item that he got from Kong Rui. He had obtained many good things from that father in law.
The item in his hand was known as the Evil Avoiding Purple Fragrance. It gave out a special scent that humans couldn’t smell and only ants and beasts could notice. They hated it.
Even the bug would be no exception.
He wasn’t able to cover his scent, so he could only prevent that bug from searching for him.
Unfortunately, although it wasn’t a top treasure, not much of it was produced.
The reason why Zong Shou used it and covered all five of them was because he was unsure exactly which person was locked onto. He also had to defend against Su Xiaoxiao.
The latter probably understood what he was thinking and her face was filled with a wronged expression. She knew that any rebellious action she did could make Zong Shou doubt her and even kill her.
She tried to hide that shock and doubtful look in her eyes, was this what Wushang Yuan Demon had planned?
However, since he was trying to kill Zong Shou, then why did he let her out to come to Zong Shou?
She felt that it didn’t make sense, like she had missed out on something in her memory…
She thought back but was unable to recall anything. She only felt really uneasy.
They backed out of the main tomb far more easily than when they came in. In just 15 minutes, they were back in the upper layer.
Shen Yuexuan found a relatively secluded room in this layer for them to hide in.
Using the Illusionary Heart Mirror and Zong Shou’s illusionary techniques, the chances of them being noticed was really small. The fragrance continued to wrap around them and block off their auras.
Once everything was handled properly, Zong Shou took out the Book of Eon. He looked coldly at Su Xiaoxiao and then smashed the Celestial Stones that they had obtained. He directed the spiritual energy into this God Artifact book.
This time, Zong Shou didn’t bother about the consumption, he chose 100 times acceleration. Turning one day into 100.
“Is that the Book of Eon Extreme life?”
Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes were filled with shock and knew that Zong Shou looked at her like that to warn her and to threaten her!
She instantly felt really sad. Luckily, she had expected such a scenario before she used the Seven Emotion Technique.
This was why she didn’t feel that dejected and still smiled, “This book that many dream of is actually in your hands. Outsiders didn’t have any news at all, how unexpected…”
When she noticed the time changes around her, her pupils constricted even more.
“Time acceleration, 100 times? So that’s the case, my Yuan Demon Seven Emotion Technique will be able to improve by half a layer!”
Zong Shou didn’t bother about her. No one noticed about the book? That might not be the case.
Zong Weiran headed into Yin Dragon Canyon alone and after retreating he hid in the Oblivion Cloud Ocean.
The various factions paid really close attention to the location of the book and the Life and Death riddle of Zong Weiran.
Now that Zong Weiran didn’t die, and he had stepped into God Realm in such a few years. That was news that had spread back to the Cloud World.
The sect leaders weren’t fools. Not only weren’t they, they were all intelligent top talents. They were probably able to guess where the book ended up at.
The reason why they didn’t plot to steal it was that they didn’t have a chance and the other reason was that after the Common People’s Path Battle they were all scared and didn’t dare.
The Saint Realm Cultivator’s Dao Paths were already set and apart from those whose Dao had something to do with time, this God Artifact didn’t appeal to them much.
The rest of them knew that they weren’t strong enough so they didn’t dare to.
This was why he worried less and less when using this item.
Zong Shou directly entered meditation. He separated those three Darkness Blooming Cereus from his Soul Ocean and slowly moved them out.
A moment later, when Zong Shou opened his eyes once more, those three flower pods appeared in his hand.
Maybe as it desired and loved this environment, the moment they appeared they greedily absorbed the vengeful energy around.
Zong Shou forcefully suppressed that right away.
The vengeful energy was enough to let the flowers grow but after all it was something that he was going to merge into his Soul Ocean and swallowing it would only affect the purity of his soul.
Those three flowers were unable to absorb the vengeful energy while also breaking out of his soul. In just an instant, they showed signs of dying.
With a thought, a bottle appeared beside him. Three drops of liquid came out and dropped onto the flowers.
The pods instantly swelled and many weird looking patterns appeared on it. Like a thirsty person finding a river, they sucked all the Creation Death Fountain Water into the flower.
A black spiritual light flashed and being nourished by the water which was in a state of both Life and Death, more and more patterns appeared. The pure black color started to dim and the corners slowly turned pure white.
As time went on, the flower looked more and more beautiful.
“This Creation Death Fountain really is a great nourishment to the flower…”
Zong Shou was rejuvenated. Just one drop and it caused such a huge change. That surprised Zong Shou greatly.
“Looking at the patterns, at most in 49 days, it would mature and complete its mutation…”
One drop a day, so he needed a total of 147.
There were a total of 1,200 drops. Gong Xinran wanted them all. However, all her belongings were sucked dry by the five of them, but there weren’t any unbelievably rare items.
Zong Shou also left 400 drops as he was afraid the liquid wasn’t enough to use to complete the mutation.
Now it seemed like it was more than enough and more than half would be left.
After watering them each, he would just need to keep them into his Soul Ocean and nourish his Spiritual Sense.
He didn’t need to bother much after that and only needed to wait for it to grow on its own.
Zong Shou continued to meditate and he was prepared to use the rest of the time to strengthen the Celestial Power in his body.
Thinking back to all the extra liquid, Zong Shou was in deep thought.
…Life and Death Essence Energy, in his True Image he had merged Life and Death Laws before.
Could he use the liquid?
