Divine Brilliance - Chapter 849
Chapter 849: Too Arrogant
If he had enough time, he would be able to merge at least 4 more Instant Space Dragon Pellets!
In just a year, he could step into Celestial Realm!
Even without a need for the acceleration of the Book of Eon…
“Since that is the case, then let this person be my Sword Grinding Stone!”
After that defeat, Zong Shou’s fighting spirit wasn’t reduced and instead he felt even more pumped up.
He didn’t see this as an obstacle, but a rare chance to improve himself.
Only under heavy pressure could the potential in the body explode out.
People always said that experts were lonely. Zong Shou had never felt that, his current cultivation was far from being invincible in the world.
However, during these few years, everything went the way he wanted it to. Even top talents like Yuan Wushang and Jueyu were unable to truly win him.
In the same grade, he was pretty much unable to find suitable opponents. Apart from the battle against the Taoist Faction, he hadn’t gone through any difficulty.
Only that person was his best Sword Grinding Stone.
He used him to test his Dao Heart, to verify his Sword Technique and to grind his will.
Zong Shou spread out his Spiritual Sense and sneakily teleported over to the Star Dragon Pellet that he used just now.
He activated the Seven Cycle Xuantong Full Restriction to suppress the bloodline movement within his body.
Vital energy surged within his body, totally spreading out the medicinal powers which seeped in all around his limbs and bones.
In that instant, a Silver Spear Shadow pierced toward his brow once more. It was really sudden and was just several feet away.
The spear-wielding teen’s voice rang out once more.
“Where are you trying to flee to?”
After this part of the void shook for a moment, it calmed down once ore.
Zong Shou’s body disappeared again. The spear-wielding teen also didn’t appear at all.
He wasn’t willing to stop and delay as he continued to chase Zong Shou.
His movement was extremely quick. Although it wasn’t comparable to Zong Shou’s, he used the Instant Space Dragon Pellet to directly teleport.
Often, in just a few moments, he would be able to find him.
He made it such that Zong Shou couldn’t calm himself down and adjust his breathing. He would often have to switch locations after a single breath of time.
“Controlling space, controlling all the light and lighting…”
After several teleportations, Zong Shou’s heart sank. This person’s Martial Path allowed him to control and use all kinds of techniques and spells.
His movement speed was pretty much unheard of.
If this went on, although he wasn’t afraid of consumption, it wouldn’t be a decent solution. He was exhausted, so how would he have any time to heal up and comprehend what he gained from the battle.
At this moment, what he needed most was time, but this person wouldn’t give it to him.
“He didn’t hold anything back, he really is arrogant and unrestrained…”
If he wanted some peace, Zong Shou had to give this person something to worry about!
Zong Shou’s eyes closed slightly, there seemed to be lightning flashing within.
During the battle just now, he still hid many trump cards, however, he was now forced to use them.
He wanted to see what was this person’s true power was like and figure out how he would deal with him…
He flashed once more and appeared in another patch of the void.
This was the furthest area his Instant Space Dragon Pellet could go to. The moment he appeared here, the Ten Extreme Imperial Dao Destruction Sword Formation spread out once more.
The 40 Star Dao Seeds, through the invisible threads injected various kinds of Spiritual Energy over. 40 Seeds connected with one another, totally different laws and Daos as they pretty much merged into one with the Sword Formation.
In just that instant, Zong Shou gathered up all the energy in his body.
The Sword Shadow flashed as he slashed out once more!
One Origin Universe Light!
This sword directly descended 300 movement speed breaths away.
Their bloodline resonated so this person was not the only one who could clearly sense his location.
Zong Shou could also know where this person.
The Sword Light slashed out, it was like the surrounding space was being forcefully sliced open.
The sword was extremely quick, causing time to nearly stop.
40 stars, 24 Dragon Tooth Swords merged into one, all gathered within the sword.
He followed the sword, speeding through the void. With an extremely bright and sharp sword shadow, in just three-thousandths of the time it took to flick a finger, the Nameless Sword was already in front of the spear-wielding teen.
They gazed at one another. Zong Shou could clearly see the shock in his eyes.
It was like he didn’t expect that under these circumstances, Zong Shou actually had excess strength to fight back.
Hurriedly thrusting out with the spear, like that of a sky covering wave while also being as firm as a pillar.
However, the sword was still able to forcefully break in. The two of them swiftly brushed past one another.
In the next moment, Zong Shou’s body disappeared from this space.
The spear-wielding teen frowned and stood still in the void.
This time, he didn’t continue to chase, but used his hand to touch his neck.
The originally perfectly fine skin had a ball of snow mist exploding out of it.
A 3-inch long wound appeared on the side of his neck.
If not for him avoiding in time and blocking quickly, this sword would have sliced off his head.
He pressed down on it strongly, forcing it from the outside. Instantly, he forced out a really sharp Sword Energy.
Even if several breaths had passed, the remaining Sword Energy was also being withered down by his body’s True Qi, but when it exploded, it still caused the stable space around him to rumble and nearly burst apart.
The teen looked at the fresh blood on his hand, his gaze was dark. He clenched his fists.
“Remember this! Zong Shou, today I, Lu Wushuang, swear that even if I have to kill a God or Saint, even if my soul is destroyed, I will kill you with my spear!”
The voice was cold and dark like it came from the depths of hell. The voice spread for 10,000 miles, reverberating through the World River, the echoes lasting for a long while.
Zong Shou stood in the distance, his brow rising slightly.
So this person was called Lu Wushuang? This person’s Marital Path and Spear Techniques were really good enough for that name…
He then shook his head, it was best if he felt less of such emotions.
The most important thing now was to heal up his injuries.
The strike just now nearly sliced off Lu Wushuang’s head.
However, he also suffered injuries. His arm and leg had been brushed across by the Spear Shadow.
Large patches of flesh and blood were ripped away, allowing one to see the white bones.
How unfortunate. He paid such a price but it was a waste in the end. Under such a circumstance, he still had the ability to counter-attack. As expected, he was even tougher to handle than he had thought.
The best timing had already passed.
After he missed that chance, Lu Wushuang would definitely be more wary and careful.
He couldn’t go all out like just now. Similar techniques would also be useless.
He sensed from afar. He could feel that the aura was still chasing over, but the speed was 20% slower than before.
Zong Shou instantly laughed and continued to teleport away.
Since he couldn’t beat him, then he would run. This battle would definitely stretch a long time. It probably wouldn’t end within a year and a half.
With bloodline entangling them together and unless Lu Wushuang chose to back off, only one of them could survive!
※※※※
“A day has passed, why isn’t Brother Shou back?”
Beside an ethereal looking pavilion, Shi Ruolan stood beside the railings, frowning as she looked into the distance into the void.
Actually, she couldn’t see anything, but her teen eyes were filled with anticipation.
Although she wasn’t able to directly join the battle of Yuanlian World, it was extremely dangerous in the other region.
She had to defend against the 30 ships from Tianfang Guild and Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty with just 6 Spaceships. The pressure was indeed really huge.
They had an intense battle in the World River. Making use of the complicated Spiritual River branches, they not only sank two boats but also captured a perfect Spaceship.
It caused them to be afraid to battle, keeping the 30 ships outside in the void, unable to enter Yuanlian World.
She thought that she would definitely be rewarded by Zong Shou when she returned.
However, after she and back, she didn’t see Zong Shou for a full day.
Worry rose up in her heart, did something happen?
Ruoshui was beside her. She too had just returned from Donghai and at this moment she wasn’t as lazy as before.
She was really solemn and was in deep thought. A moment later, she shook her head.
“Maybe he faced some problems but he should be able to deal with it.”
During these few months, Zong Shou was pretty much always in secluded mediation. Every moment was spent on crafting flying swords.
He was obviously here to expand into the outer region, but at the crucial moment he didn’t care about anything.
He only made some rough arrangements before heading back into his room.
Since a year ago when Dragon Shadow stepped into End Realm and he could cover up everything, he stopped hiding the matter of the Book of Eon from them.
Ruolan and her could head to his room at any time and use the book to accelerate time to cultivate.
Each time they went, they saw that Zong Shou was fully focused. He was either crafting Dragon Tooth Swords or refining Dragon Pellets. He didn’t rest for even a moment like there was something forcing his hand.
Since there was a problem, then he should have predicted it in advance and was preparing for it during these few months.
Most probably he already had some confidence to be able to deal with it.
If not, he wouldn’t have left them with just a few words before he left.
Thinking about this, Ruoshui looked above. A golden glow landed in the Yuanjing Palace, toward where the main hall was.
“Talisman Decree?”
Ruoshui was lost and exchanged glances with Shi Ruolan. Then, they both flashed toward that direction.
After the battle, the Yuanjing Palace was cold and silent.
At this moment, the cultivators from both the Sword Sect and Buddhist Faction were all outside.
300,000 troops had all split up. At this one time, there were only the family members of the various kings. However, they all locked themselves up, not daring to come out before they heard any news from the front lines.
Next would be the new disciples who the various sects had recruited. However, they were all really well behaved.
This resulted in there being no one along the way to the hall. The huge Yuanjiang Palace didn’t have any joy of victory.
When the two of them entered, they noticed that someone was a step ahead of them.
It was Zifang who had been taking charge of the Yuanjing Palace.
He stood beside the decree in deep thought.
Seeing this, Ruoshui asked directly, “Is there news from Ruler? What did he say?”
Zifang turned around and shook his head, “This talisman has a seal. He wants us to all gather up before it can be opened.”
