Divine Brilliance - Chapter 341
Chapter 341: Chapter 341 Make Him Shut Up
2 days after Zong Shou had merged with the 5th and 6th earth veins he had already reached the martial ancestor realm.
If it wasn’t for him worrying about this realm not being stable, that the changes due to his raise in the realm would keep continuing, then he could have completed the merger of the 4th meridian and stepped into the 4 meridian martial ancestor realm.
Before Wei Xu left, the many martial techniques and scriptures that he left had helped him to perfect the world shocking spiritual art to the 5th layer of the earth chakra level…
Not long after Zong Shou completed his body training work for today, Zong Yuan woke up from his meditation, his eyes shining slightly, filled with energy.
Zong Shou smiled when he saw that. Since he obtained the blood of the spiritual salamander, the aura that Zong Yuan gave out became more and more stable by the day.
The greatest obstacle for this fellow charging to the Xuanwu ancestor was his meat body. With the insight mysterious lightning body training art for the inside and the spiritual salamander blood for the outside, each time he cultivated, it could help solidify his foundations and would also help increase his comprehension of his maniac lightning spear intent.
At this moment Zong Yuan’s energy aura wasn’t as restless as before and didn’t have the feeling like it could lose control at any moment. The after-effects of advancing quickly were being removed little by little at a time.
Even the purple lightning that sometimes seeped outside of his body was disappearing to an indistinct state.
Taking out the illusionary heart mirror, just as he wanted to enter meditation once more, Zong Shou’s brows furrowed slightly as he looked at the swamp which was not far away.
“How quick!”
He saw a group of cavalry galloping over from the depths of the swamp. They were all on grade 3 mounts. They had a range of cultivation levels, the highest being at the peak of grade 6 whilst the lowest had cultivation similar to a grade 3 beast. However, most of them were spirit masters whilst martial cultivators took up ¼.
Those hidden sects and aristocratic families had their seniors taking care of them. When they entered and exited the Dragon Gathering mountain, their seniors would ferry them through the air, covering a thousand miles in an instance.
As for the scattered cultivators of Donglin Cloud Continent, if they weren’t at the ascended realm, they wouldn’t be able to participate. As for the various powers around, there were many with the ability to join in.
However, around this area, with Chai Yuan using the army to lock it down, there were very few people who were able to proceed towards Dragon Gathering Mountain through the land route.
There were only a few powers within the borders of Gantian Mountain territory. One of which was Linhai College.
Looking at the dressing of these people, they were indeed from that college.
Zong Shou smiled slightly and gave up on wanting to meditate. His gaze traveling around them and searched around in this group of people. In just a moment it landed on a person. It was a youth, body wearing the most basic green cloth gown. His face was slightly pale, however, he looked roughly similar to Gong Xinran.
After seeing that person, Zong Shou instantly felt his heart loosened.
He knew that this person was most probably Gong Xinran’s brother. As expected from the news that Ruo Shui had given him, this kid followed the old path of his sister and joined Linhai College a year ago.
He seemed to be walking the dual cultivator path, at such a young age to actually have both a mythic master and spirit cultivation level, both entering the 3rd grade.
This talent was much stronger than that of Gong Xinran. No wonder those few deans in Linhai College insisted on bringing him to the Dragon Gate.
He thought back to the martial arts secret manual in his heaven and earth-bag. He only needed to send out this item and it could be considered to have completed another one of that ‘Zong Shou’s’ wishes.
Putting an end to it, stopping all connections, it would definitely cause his heart to become much clearer.
Speaking of which the secrets of this item were something he hadn’t tried to solve. Apart from feeling curious about it at the start, he didn’t pay much attention to it.
Even if there were some secrets, it should belong to the Gong family and had nothing to do with him.
Someone requested help from him and trusted him, so was better that he didn’t try to steal the Gong family’s item.
Thinking about how he would be able to end this matter, Zong Shou felt extremely delighted.
At most, in the future, he could just write a recommendation letter to ask Lei Dong to let this person join the Wujue Villa. That could be considered taking good care of him.
Linhai College was created by a few day wandering realm spirit masters and a few Confucian cultivators, spreading for 5 thousand years and slowly growing in scale in Donglin Cloud Continent. Out of the many colleges, it had some fame. It helped to spread Confucian studies whilst teaching disciples spiritual techniques in exchange for benefits. Some hidden sects sent people to join the college to select and inspect disciples.
To have someone join the Wujue Villa is the honor of this college.
Zong Yuan quietly held onto his spear, sitting down like that of a statue. However, the wariness and alertness were instantly raised to the maximum.
Zong Shou on the other hand just smiled, taking a branch to play around with the fire. At this moment, there were too many people and it was inconvenient. It wasn’t appropriate for him to hand over that book in front of so many people which was why he temporarily had no intentions to meet him.
After the Linhai College people arrived at the foot of the mountain they similarly sized up the 2 of them vigilantly.
However there simply weren’t many places they could settle down here at, they could only choose to rest at aside. A moment later someone exclaimed, “Is that junior brother Zong Shou?”
Zong Shou’s eyes turned serious as he looked over towards that voice. As expected he saw several familiar people, the 13 years of memories locked in dust instantly became active.
He recognized a few of the more outstanding people in Zong Shou’s batch. The one that spoke was bigger than him by a year, a 15-year-old teen. Her clothing was really gorgeous, she wore a golden crown on her head but her face looked really simple and honest.
Zong Shou recognized that this person was called Zhong Lishuang. It was said that she was from one of the hidden sects of Donglin Cloud continent. The power of her family was quite strong too with several grade 7 experts.
Who knows for why she decided to join Linhai College. Her strength wasn’t weak, reaching the peak of the spirit cultivation level and was just a few steps away from the Out of Body realm.
The ones who were even more startled were the teachers who were in charge. They all looked over, their gazes extremely complicated, respect, regret and worry all mixed up. They wanted to proceed forwards to greet but hesitated.
Although they didn’t speak Zong Shou knew clearly what they were thinking about. During those 3 years, Zong Shou didn’t have a good time at Linhai College. Especially the last month when Zong Weiran and Gantian Mountain had signs of instability. Not only the students even these teachers stared and treated him coldly.
At that time, probably no one could have expected that he could return to Gantian Mountain, kill Zong Shi and inherit the throne.
They definitely couldn’t have thought that in just a few months the situation at Donglin Cloud Continent would change by so much.
Gantian Mountain rose up once more, controlling 12 provinces along with him inheriting Xuan Mountain in the future. Close to ⅓ of Donglin Cloud Continent was under his control.
The sphere of influence of Linhai College was all under his rule.
Coldly smiling, Zong Shou wasn’t willing to bother, restlessly playing around with the fire and looking at the flames change.
However, following which a laugh spread out from that group.
“Zong Shou? That trash prince? He still isn’t dead?”
This voice was sharp and provocative, filled with mocking intent, “Learning for 3 years and not managing to complete the focus concentration stage, what is he doing here? Does he really think the remnant image of the martial saint can help him? Without cultivation talent, he should know his place…”
Zong Shou was startled, thinking to himself what a genius this is? He still called him prince, he probably didn’t hear the news about him.
To have such balls to mock out in front of the seniors and teachers, he should have some status.
Raising his eyelids as expected he saw a slightly plumb person who smiled coldly as he walked beside Zhong Lishuang. Looking over with a teasing expression in his eyes.
He recognized this person to, he was called Hai Hongzhen. His family background wasn’t simple, just slightly weaker than Zhong Lishuang’s.
Thinking about which Zong Shou recalled several bits of grievances. In Linhai College due to this person, Zong Shou was beaten up several times. There were even 3 times when he was left in a half date state, being humiliated in an unrestrained manner.
At the start, the teachers of Linhai College spoke up for him due to Gantian Mountain. As time went on, no one cared anymore.
All those scenes were etched deeply in Zong Shou’s memory. He had a deep hatred towards that fat kid, similar to his towards Zong Yu. However, at this moment when Zong Shou thought about it, he was really calm.
At this moment, the person who was anxious was a Return to Sun spirit master of Linhai College who scolded out, “Shut up! His highness Zong Shou is already the Gantian Mountain monster king, controlling 12 provinces of land. A few days ago he defeated Taoyun City and forced Blazing Flame and Yunxia City, forcing their city lords to cut off their arms. He has tens of millions of troops under him. Why do you have the courage to offend him?”
Scolding out wasn’t enough as he still had to remind him. Even Zhong Lishuang who Zong Shou recognized, had his face also turned green.
That little fatty Hai Hongzhen was slightly astonished, looking towards Zong Shou in disbelief.
He had recently gone into secluded meditation and knew nothing about outside matters. He didn’t believe that the person he humiliated a year ago became the Gantian monster king who controlled 12 provinces.
Following which, he looked at everyone, including those students who gazed over with weird expressions in their eyes. His expression changed, his eyes filled with rage.
“So what if he is Gantian Monster king? My words aren’t wrong, trash is still trash! I want to scold him, so what can he do to me?”
He laughed coldly, “All of you fear him, but my Hai family doesn’t. He’s just a small monster king. Just a year ago I beat him up so badly he didn’t dare to speak…”
Zong Shou originally didn’t want to care, but as he heard him speak, he felt annoyed, closing his eyes, “Make him shut up!”
A purple spear directly struck at those Linhai College people.
The techniques of the seven tail sky fox race focused on illusions and uncertainty. Zong Shou went a totally different route, sharp and domineering, swift beyond compare!
The faces of those Linhai College teachers instantly changed. 2 sword images cutting down and locking down on Zong Yuan.
Following which, Zong Yuan didn’t even try to avoid, the lightning glow like a dragon, taking it head-on. A spear spark shaking out, smashing the 2 sword images. Then he didn’t wait for the few of them to react as his body traveled 500 feet and pierced right at the throat of Hai Hongzhen.
