Divine Brilliance - Chapter 135

Chapter 135: Chapter 135 Spiritual Grandmaster Realm

That explosive ring was still deafening to the ear even tens of miles away. The two dozen Windrider Foals neighed in fear. Even without needing Lian Fan to rush them, they galloped ahead crazily.

Zong Shou stuck his head out of the window, looking behind curiously. That Yan Fan and Shui Lingbo had obviously restrained themselves. However, just that strike was enough to destroy all the plants and trees within tens of miles.

The martial cultivators of this era really had nothing to worry about. If it was ten thousand years later, not matter how high their identity was, if a person above the Ascended Realm dared to attack in the Cloud Continent, to use strength exceeding that of Ascended Realm, they would immediately be hunted down and killed.

Even if one had any grievances, they needed to be solved within the cloud ocean. He himself was someone who had frequented the cloud ocean to fight.

“…That Yan Fan’s hundreds of years of martial path and spiritual cultivation experience is really extraordinary. Only because of the restrictions of the spiritual energy, even with the help of the Shrine he is unable to step into the Celestial Realm. After the spiritual energy wave starts, he will charge into the heavens. However, Shui Lingbo isn’t weak, either. This girl has obtained a Desolate Era Martial Saint Golden Pill, which had the Saint’s life’s cultivation. Her true qi and spiritual energy are abundant and ten years later she will also rise up. If the two of them really went all out, it would be really difficult to choose a winner…”

Shaking his head, Zong Shou kept his thoughts and pulled back his head into the carriage, feeling a little unfortunate. If the two of them couldn’t find a winner, than his hopes of joining a large sect and reading their large amounts of techniques would temporarily be shelved.

He was also looking forward to the ten bottles of Celestial brew. High Grade Celestial brews could be compared to pills. They worked really quick and the fiery and poisonous properties of them were small. To a certain extent, they were even harder to come by than those pills!

Xuanyuan Yiren and Li Yunniang were also startled, but they didn’t think too deeply about it. They only knew that there were top level talents fighting, and they didn’t dare to stay too long here. Li Yunniang guided their Windrider Foals and they followed closely behind.

————

Nothing much happened along the way. Maybe because of testing that Chill Spirit Mysterious Sense Pill, Xuanyuan Yiren had hidden back into the carriage and didn’t come out much.

She occasionally came out and hurried off, hurriedly returning within an hour or half a day. She caught up to the carriage, who knows where she went to search for Ice Blue Grass and Snow Stem.

He had once taken a look inside her Heaven and Earth bag of Xuanyuan Yiren. There were numerous herbs inside, split into three types. Any spiritual herb below Grade Three was abundant. The ingredients needed for the Chill Spirit Mysterious Sense Pill were all available aside from the Ice Blue Grass and Snow Stem.

Zong Shou heaved a sigh of relief. At least he didn’t need to face her questions about when he was going to complete the marriage.

Chuxue was still catching sparrows on the roof of the carriage. After that battle with the spirit master, that little brat seemed to have comprehended something and stopped grumbling. Not only did she catch all sorts of flying bird beasts, she also increased the amount on her own to two hundred. As she was on the high speed travelling carriage, it was tough to increase the amount.

Chuxue didn’t grumble anymore and didn’t try to slack. She spent most of her time on the roof of the carriage with the birds. Luckily Zong Shou’s heart realm wouldn’t be affected even in a market, so his cultivation wasn’t affected.

Every day he felt happier and happier. Chuxue might not be able to feel it, but every day he could sense that her speed was increasing crazily.

This process didn’t happen suddenly, and was because of the two Human Pinnacle Pills, small daily improvements that in the end it accumulated to such a breakthrough, She had pretty much crossed the gate to the Ninth Meridian and was working towards the peak of the Bodily Chakra.

He did feel a little regretful. Although Chuxue’s martial cultivation improved every day, her spiritual cultivation was lagging behind. This sparrow-catching method helped increase her intuition and speed, but it didn’t improve strength. He could only think of a way after they settled down in the future.

Looking at the current situation, in less than the three months he had expected previously, she would be able to reach Xiantian.

This brat had a Battle Martial Body.

—

Li Yunniang, who was on the carriage behind them, had a different kind of feeling. She was initially filled with disdain towards Chuxue catching birds every day. Since that contest, she had started to pay attention and treat it seriously.

Every time she saw saw Xue’er’s quick movements, she would be filled with awe.

Simple and efficient, moreover whenever she acted, she was really precise, like she had expected that those birds would be unable to escape her control.

Every action of hers had the ability to touch one’s heart and was really beautiful. It also had a sort of sentient and uncertain rhythm, like a girl from Heaven, and also like an elegant and nimble snow cat.

After a few days later, Li Yunniang had some comprehension and knew that Chuxue was unknowingly comprehending and developing a sort of martial rhythm, one really simple and unrestrained! It seemed like she had reached a really high level in just these short few days…

It made her feel really strange and sent a chill down her spine. She was unsure how high her chances of beating this girl which was only at the peak of Bodily Chakra were…

——-

West of the Sudian Mountain range was a desolate plain filled with numerous beasts. Only after travelling a few thousand miles did they finally see signs of people. They continued for weeks before arriving near the center of the Donglin Cloud Continent.

Here was a grassy plain, rivers flowing along. It should have been the most fertile and most prosperous area, however because this was where the fourth war happened, it seemed really desolate and forsaken.

When they entered this huge region, Li Yunniang’s face slowly became really ugly. It wasn’t because of Chuxue’s fast improvement, but because beside this path were many people dressed shabbily, all thin and on the verge of collapsing. Their faces were ashen white, like they were near dead.

Once they saw the carriage galloping by, they crowded over crazily. Luckily the carriages were travelling in the air and Lian Fan and Li Yunniang’s skills were good, so they were easily able to avoid the crowds and not be blocked.

Xuanyuan Yiren spent every day refining pills within the carriage and didn’t ask about any matters. Zong Shou was basically a nerd in his last life and now was trying his best to perfect his Sword Shocking Spiritual Art. The entire set needed to break through to Xiantian was already completed.

There was also his soul power cultivation. His soul was really pure now, and he had no obstacles getting to the Night Wandering stage, even directly jumping over it and entering the Back to Sun Realm. He still needed to form three True Spiritual Talisman seeds within his soul ocean.

Martial cultivators were split into Body, Earth, and Heaven realms.

Martial Warriors, Martial Masters, and Mythic Masters were at the Bodily Chakra level and could be split according to their strength based on their number of meridians. Xiantian masters, Martial Ancestors, and Xuanwu Ancestors were Earth Chakra experts. At that realm they were already considered quite skilled in the Donglin Cloud Continent. Above six meridians of the Earth chakra stage, one could become the master of a land.

As for Ascended Ancestors, Grandmasters, and Spiritual Grandmasters, they were Heaven meridian experts. Above the Ascended Realm, one wasn’t allowed to participate in the battles between commoners. When one reached the Fourth meridian, due to the weakening of the Heaven and Earth spiritual energies, most of the time they would need to hide in Shrines and Spirit Houses where large amounts of spiritual energy gathered, in case their cultivation was lowered and their lifespan was shortened.

That was why people like Yan Fan and Taiyuan Fairy spent their years in closed door cultivation and it was difficult for one to see them.

Spirit masters were different. Before the Out of Body Realm, there wasn’t a clear Realm distribution. Focus Concentration, Soul Observation, and Spirit Cultivation were just a rough gauge, like how Zong Shou was unable to fit into a specific category a few months ago.

After the Out of Body Realm, there was a precise way to deduce which Realm you were at, which was the number of talismans and charms you had formed.

Within the soul ocean, a spirit master who had not formed three True Spiritual Talismans would be at the Out of Body Realm. Above that, and one would be at the Night Wandering. Above six and one would be at the Back to Sun level.

Every True Spiritual Talisman seed formed greatly increased one’s soul power and allowed one to use more spells and techniques.

After nine, one was considered at the peak of the Back to Sun stage! After nine charms, one could still continue to no limit, but only after one broke through to the Day Wandering level would one see a physical change.

At Day Wandering, Body Shaping and True Form realms could also use three, six, or nine to deduce their realms. This time it would be God Talisman spiritual seeds.

The Celestial spirit master was similar.

All this was why, although Zong Shou’s soul was really pure and his soul power was really strong, many times that of Out of Body spirit masters, as long as he didn’t form the three True Spiritual Talismans he couldn’t be considered to have reached the Night Wandering stage!

These last few days he had managed to make the World Shocking Spiritual Art more and more perfect, which filled him with joy.

Chuxue suddenly hung her head upside down, poking in through the window. Her eyes were shining, her eyes watery as a little deer that had just been born.

Just as Zong Shou thought she was about to ask to slack, she muttered, “Young Master, can you lend me some money?”

Zong Shou was stunned, “Lend you money? What for?” He felt weird. “Didn’t you earn a lot at Xiayuan City, why are you asking me for money?”

Chuxue touched her finger tips and smiled awkwardly, “That money were dropped by others so I gave it to the beggars instead, since I couldn’t find the owner. They are so pitiful. There was also some I gave to the doctors, so I only have a little left…”

No wonder when he was fixing the carriage Chuxue couldn’t be seen for the entire day…

Suddenly having an idea, Zong Shou came to the top of the carriage and looked around, seeing so many people packed to the west.

Zong Shou’s brow furrowed as his face revealed a serious expression, “Lian Fan, do you know what is happening?”

The area’s trees were withered and the ground was dry and cracked up, like it was in the middle of a huge drought. However, he remembered that in the hundred years after the spirit wave, plants and trees grew exceptionally crazily here.

Even in the desert, if one paid attention one would be able to grow a flower. Even in a drought it wasn’t be possible for it to be so bad that people would leave their homes.

Lian Fan frowned when he heard that, slowly stopping the Windrider Foals and the carriage.
