Divine Brilliance - Chapter 743
Chapter 743: Nameless Evolving
That vast energy surged all out. It spread out wave by wave, smashing the hunted mike area into dust.
Two huge strong intents flashed one another. A soul power storm rose up and swept all about.
Zong Shou’s brow rose up. He tried his best to maintain his balance, to go up against the storm and also the soul suppression.
Following which he saw the dragon claw directly smashed Yuanmeng’s body into pieces, blood flew all over.
When Zong Shou saw that, he wasn’t that happy. He knew that Yuanmeng’s body was already destroyed and he had already fallen.
However at such a realm even a drop of blood can let one revive. To kill one, someone like Aokun needed to put in some effort.
As expected when the blood mist was about to float away, a vast golden flame rose up from the dragon claw. It burnt and expanded, trapping all the blood within.
However a green light descended from the sky, speeding over from not far away. If one looked carefully it was a sword light which was leisure and rhythmic but also extremely sharp.
Where it passed, spacetime cracked apart and the golden flame spread about. Its strength was only below that of the dragon claw.
The giant claw bounced upright as the golden flame was about to be totally broken. It struck onto that green sword light.
After a loud ring, the sword light broke. There was a wound in the dragon claw, golden blood dropped out.
Following which dust fell from the golden flame.
Looking at the situation, Shui Lingbo instantly sighed.
“His body and soul was really destroyed! Your Brother is really vicious. From now on the Taoist Faction won’t stop easily.”
Zong Shou heaved, giving out a fake sigh.
“If I knew this would happen why would I have done that?”
He sacrificed so much and if he was unable to kill this Yuanmeng then it would be a waste of his time.
As for Shui Lingbo, she didn’t care about the words he said.
Taoist Faction and he were enemies a year ago. There was no other possibility than death.
Now it was just an added debt, it didn’t mean much more…
Seeing the dust dissipate, Yuanmeng’s Soul now didn’t exist in the world. Zong Shou sent a thought back into his mind.
Following which he noticed that Xiaori had retreated out from the place. However that silver white dragon was still there.
The Yin Dragon was at Initial God Realm. However a descendant of the Yin Dragon was formed after a Dragon loses his body and was formed by gathering Yin Energy. Apart from hiding and keeping in the shadows, it was best at soul battles.
Which was why it was perfectly fine after fighting with Yuanmeng.
It stayed in his soul like it wanted to borrow his eyes to look at Yuanmeng leave.
Seeing him die, it was about to leave. The dragon body moving as it turned its head.
Zong Shou found it really weird. He still didn’t fully believe in Kong Rui’s words about it being the Protector Saint Beast.
However today this Yin Dragon acted in time, managing to save him, that was the truth.
Although this fellow forcefully occupied the Avici Throne which made him annoyed.
However if he was able to get helped by a God Realm expert’s help because of that then it was a huge gain.
Speaking of which this dragon was far away at Gantian Mountain. There was hundred thousand miles from here so how did it get over?
With a thought Zong Shou had a warm fake smile as he greeted the dragon.
“Brother Dragon! Little Brother greets you.”
It was totally different from his attitude from before. Whether or not it was really the Country Protector Saint Beast he needed to get closer to it.
The dragon was obviously startled and then it felt a chill around its body like it was not used to it.
It sized up Zong Shou with a weird look and then it didn’t bother much. It shook its head and snorted, not bothering about him. With a shake it passed right by Zong Shou’s body.
The dragon body moved, causing energy to surge about within his soul.
Zong Shou was in a bad state, using all his strength to stabilise the shaking soul ocean.
He scolded out. He swore that there would be a day when he kills this unreasonable dragon and skin it alive!
This fellow was even more arrogant than Aokun.
However this time he could clearly feel that this dragon came and went through the Avici Throne. It was mentally connected, pretty much merging into one with his King Path Strength.
“What was this due to?”
He had many questions but no answers. Zong Shou could only temporarily let them go, his mind leaving the soul ocean and returning once more.
That Yin Dragon left in just a breath. The surrounding land was totally silent.
The giant claw in the distance was nowhere to be seen. The hundreds of spiritual senses and auras were silent, they didn’t even dare to pant and make a sound. It was scarily quiet.
Only Shui Lingbo was totally calm and didn’t care anymore.
“Yuanmeng fell, this is truly tough for the Taoist Faction.”
After saying that she saw that Zong Shou’s face was extremely ugly. She didn’t know that Zong Shou had taken a loss in front of the Country Protector Saint Beast. She thought that the fellow was heavily injured after suffering Yuanmeng’s hit.
Worry appeared in her eyes. Only when she felt using spiritual sense that his soul was perfectly fine did she relax.
“After this battle, your Gantian Mountain would probably have a few decades of peace?”
Zong Shou thought about it and laughed, “There should be thirty years! Not only Gantian Mountain, wouldn’t our Common People Path be the same?”
After a series of clashes, Daoling Vast Habitat’s reputation was already at its lowest, falling right to the bottom.
Yuanmeng dying would also tear off the last layer of face of theirs.
In the next few decades they would first have to deal with the Demon Path and then control the people eyeing the various mines and Spirit Mountains.
They also needed to face Great Shang’s suppression as well as Tailing and Daoling Sect’s actions.
They needed to rebuild their reputation among the three thousand Taoist Sects as well as deal with the battle between The Central Continent aristocratic families and Great Shang Emperor Race…
There was no chance that they could do anything huge towards Gantian Mountain. Even if they did it would be towards him as well as Aokun.
At this moment it didn’t have much strength to suppress the other factions and sects.
Which was why Zong Shou said that it would benefit the Common People Path.
Actually it was the same for Sword Sect and the Buddhist Faction. Daoling Vast Habitat not being able to deal with anything else would make it much simpler for them in the next few decades.
At this moment Zong Shou relaxed.
He didn’t bother about the mind stone compensation. There was also no way they would hand over those who participated in the murders in Donglin.
The only thing he cared about was not to drag down the innocent people under him.
So Yuanmeng wasn’t going to hand them over? Then he would personally take it for themselves!
Shui Lingbo laughed when she heard that, her eyes spinning.
What she was most satisfied was was when Zong Shou said the words, “Our Common People Path”, he didn’t treat them as outsiders.
“However you still need to be careful. You harmed only their reputation in the Cloud World. They have ran for ten thousand years and their accumulation isn’t small. Dozens of sects, close to a hundred Spirit Realm, one Yuanmeng wasn’t important. At this moment once the Spiritual Wave rises, in just ten years they would recover. There were many experts who were in the outer region and hadn’t returned. In hindsight you were a little reckless. To challenge such a giant being as an ant, isn’t that amusing? Why not hide and accumulate strength…”
Zong Shou laughed when he heard that, looking right at Shui Lingbo.
“Did Senior Brother Han ask you to say those last few sentences?”
Shui Lingbo stopped breathing, her expression was slightly awkward. Then she calmed down.
“In our eyes it is the case.”
Zong Shou smiled and didn’t speak, not agreeing but also not retorting.
The Taoist Faction was huge and the battle with them definitely wouldn’t be decided in a day.
However even if he had to bear with it he needed a safe environment.
To be able to fight and to be able to get peace, to force the Taoist Faction to not bother about him. Only by slashing the claws and tooth they stretched over, could he do so!
Moreover although he killed and gained little, not much as compared to the whole Taoist Faction, it could be accumulated into a large amount.
Break its claws and tooth, cutting its branches.
Taking one step at a time and sooner or later this giant mountain’s foundations would be dug up and pushed down.
Shui Lingbo looked at Zong Shou’s expression and knew that he didn’t bother much about it. She shook her head, “Yuanmeng has died. What are you prepared to do? Continue to challenge them?”
Zong Shou scoffed, reaching out and grabbing the Nameless Sword which was stuck into the ground.
It felt heavy when it entered his arm.
It seemed like the quality of it had rose up.
Thinking back Zong Shou recalled when Yuanmeng’s soul broke and soul power scattered all over.
That was when he was in his mind and trying to communicate with the stubborn Country Protector God Beast.
However he still managed to sense the outside world. At that time most of the soul power was sucked into the Nameless Sword.
However it didn’t send it back to him but to purify and improve the sword body.
He still didn’t know what material was this sword made of. When it entered his hand it was just an Intermediate Magical Artifact.
However in a short year its sharpness was at the peak level.
Especially these dozens of days when he killed dozens of sects and close to a hundred Spirit Realm experts, each day the quantity of it would increase greatly.
“What a weird thing…”
He muttered and kept the sword. Then a bright sun-like smile appeared on his face.
“Naturally we run! If we don’t those people there would most probably fight to the death with me.”
Even if they looked like they were getting weak they might be able to win. However after this matter, those people looking on wouldn’t sit still and not do anything anymore.
It wasn’t smart to continue on!
Moreover his Heaven Barrier was about to break. His tribulation was close and it wasn’t appropriate to stay any longer.
He waved his sleeves, thinking that he looked really cool. Shui Lingbo said, “Why aren’t you wiping your nose bleed? You look so bad.”
Zong Shou’s body instantly shook and he nearly fell from the sky.
