Chapter 636: Bankrupt Zong Shou

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

Sighing leisurely, Zong Shou was contemplating whether or not to just take them from Xuanyuan Yiren? However, if he did that he would just be relying on his wife…

However, since he was in a helpless position that was the only thing he could do. At most, Zhao Yanran would just laugh at him.

At this moment, he had already used up most of the Mind Stones he had extorted. Although he had close to 300, he kept those in case he needed them in the future.

He kept the Eon Book. When he recovered his True Qi fully, he jumped into the sand hole once more and descended to the deepest part of it.

At this moment, he sensed that he was about to break through. He tossed the Kong Rui matter to the back of his head.

Just like that he trained for 10 consecutive days without stopping. Apart from occasionally resting to adjust his breath, he spent the whole 24 hours in a day in there.

On the 17th day, the 2 Heaven Veins which he had prepared long ago were forcefully merged into his Chakra Meridians.

On the 46th day, he swallowed his last Injury-Healing Pill in the bag. He had to stop his body training for now.

At this moment, his skin still had that jade-like luster but if one looked carefully there was a layer of mysterious light on the outside.

Zong Shou first tried to use a Grade-7 Spiritual Weapon to stab his palm. Before it even came into contact with his skin, it was blocked by an extremely impressive strength. He felt that he was unable to conjure more strength and the blade was moving to the sides uncontrollably.

He was startled. What he wanted to train was the body. Why was this body-protecting energy so strong?

Thinking about it, he understood. It was most probably due to the pressure from the friction of the Mysterious Black Steel. Unknowingly, it had reached such a strong level.

After understanding it, Zong Shou laughed. He changed to a Grade-8 Spiritual Weapon and stabbed toward his arm!

He could feel a really powerful strength resisting. After he broke it, due to his lack of strength, he only managed to stab 2 inches into the skin before his muscles punctured it, unable to move forward even a little.

He used close to 40% of his strength for this strike and the results were better than he had expected.

If he continued to train like that, in probably 4-5 years, even Grade-9 Spiritual Weapons wouldn’t be able to hurt him. At that time, he could try to break the Heaven Barrier!

Moreover, if he had some treasures to support him, it wasn’t impossible for him to enter the Spirit Realm before the Spiritual Wave.

The wishes of Tanqiu which he was unable to complete in the last life could be done in this.

Zong Shou felt confidence and ambition rising up in his chest. He punched with his right fist, and instantly wind surged, spreading all around.

Following this, the Spiritual Formations within the room exploded. All around, the pillars collapsed with a huge explosion.

Zong Shou was shocked and naturally understood. The Spiritual Formation was ground down by the energy that rose due to his fist training such that it couldn’t take any more hits.

Originally, this cultivation room just needed to be repaired and it could still be used. Now it was totally destroyed and needed to be rebuilt.

If it was before, Zong Shou wouldn’t worry about rebuilding it 10 times, but now he didn’t have money.

Stunned for a moment, he rubbed his temples in pain. Would he have to go to the wilderness to cultivate in the future?

Thinking about this, he saw several spiritual lights fly within. It should have reached here long ago but due to the Spiritual Formation blocking, it stopped outside.

At this moment, the cultivation room collapsed and naturally these talismans could fly over to him.

Zong Shou took them, his eyes squinting. Moments later his eyes opened wide, filled with a sharp and intense light.

It was really as he expected. This Huizhou Island truly had a problem and it wasn’t a small one!

ls, he thought back to Kong Yao. This matter was because of her so maybe she knew something about it…

He didn’t have much hope about it but he still had to ask her about it.

Gantian Mountain peak, within an exquisite building…

Kong Rui was sitting in front of his daughter, peacefully drinking tea. Apart from Kong Yao there was also a girl who was as beautiful as his daughter.

However, most of the time she was dozing off. A few days ago she barely stayed awake to accompany them but most of the time, she used Kong Yao’s legs as a pillow.

He had spent 40 days in Gantian Mountain, taking just 3 days to get past the uncomfortable feeling.

Although this Gantian Mountain was 10 times smaller than the Emperor Capital, it was still a huge city. Gantian Mountain had everything Great Shang had and what Great Shang didn’t have could also be found here too.

The city was evidently more clean and tidy. There was also no stench on the streets. The people were indeed really strong and liked to have their say but they were also really honest.

He seemed to totally fall in love with the life here, not needing to compete with others and not needing to be wary about his brothers.

His only regret was not being able to personally meet the Gantian Monster King.

He said he would go into secluded meditation for seven days but till now he still hadn’t come out. However, to people who were focused on cultivation, this was a normal matter and it wasn’t surprising.

Now he finally understood why Gantian Mountain had such a system.

Zong Shou didn’t bother about anything every day, spending his time within the Hanyan Palace and not heading out to deal with administrative work.

However, the country matters were still in an orderly manner with no signs of chaos.

Moreover, even after he let go of power there weren’t any Officials who could control everything.

The Cabinet was important, but the matters were split into the hands of a few people and they too were restricted by others.

The meeting hall system was to restrict them?

Kong Ruo thought about it silently in his heart. This seemingly preposterous plan had such deep meaning.

This Monster King was also really smart, it seemed like his thoughts from before were a little too extreme.

When he came to Gantian he wanted to meet Zong Shou right away. However, after he found out that his daughter showed signs of breaking the killing calamity he wasn’t so anxious anymore.

On the other hand, after staying so long in Gantian Mountain, this anxiousness slowly came back.

He wanted to see if this person could really be the Saint King, whether he was really the one to break Yao’er’s death fate.

Looking closely at Kong Yao, her aura was becoming sharper and sharper. She seemed to have adapted to the boring life in the palace, looking really casual and leisurely. However, in his eyes the current Kong Yao was like a sword out of its sheath, a star ready to charge into the sky.

In between her brows, the purple and black energy caught one’s attention. The broken mark between her eyebrows was blood red.

Kong Yao felt slightly weird, touching her face, “Is there something weird about my face?”

Kong Rui came to his senses and then shook his head, breaking into a laugh, “When will the Ruler come out?”
