36 Chapter 36 Post Matter Decision (2/2)

Once the two meridians were trained, there would be some energy seeping out of the body of the cultivator. Zong Shou had just opened up the two meridians, and was unable to control all his energy. A higher-level cultivator was easily able to find out.

Yin Yang's eyes lit up immediately, and then became solemn, ”The Prince's talents are truly incomparable! I don't know how you are able to complete two meridians in just three months. But I need to remind Your Highness, the foundations of a cultivator are really important, don't rush for achievements...”

Zong Shou smiled awkwardly; how would he not know such a theory? However, he knew that Yin Yang was saying that out of goodwill.

Luckily Yin Yang wasn't naggy and only said a few words. He changed to the main topic, ”When the ruler left Gantian Mountain, he asked Chuxue and I to pick you up from Linhai College and send you to Lingyun Sect. However, he didn't say anything more. It seems like he didn't expect this to happen. Since Prince doesn't want to join Lingyun Sect, then the three of us have to plan for the future...”

Zong Shou nodded his head once more and knew that that was true. He had also guessed previously that it was the reason why Yin Yang was looking for him.

As expected, Yin Yang took out a beast skin map, his face was filled with questions. ”Going out of Smoke Town, there are five paths to exit the Sudian Mountain range. We can use Dragon Lake Plains to go back to Gantian Mountain. The other option would be to go east to Cloud Saint City. Although it isn't a large port, we can find boats to go out to sea. Apart from that, there are three smaller paths where fierce beasts roam, some of which are stage six beast kings that even Lingyun Sect can't do anything about. It seems like our carriage would find it tough to pass, too.”

Zong Shou smiled. The reason why Yin Yang said so much was just telling him that there were only two paths he could choose. Either escape out from the Donglin Cloud Continent, or return back to Gantian Mountain to fight for the throne.

His hand brushing his chin as he thought carefully. At last he smiled, pointed to the east, and said, ”Let's make a trip to Cloud Saint City!”

The place he remembered was not far away from that Cloud Saint City. It hadn't appeared yet, and only truly appeared when the spiritual energy wave came. That year was also the year the God Emperor game started from.

If he didn't remember wrongly, not far from this area was a Heaven and Earth spiritual ginseng. A few of them should have already matured. They weren't that precious, but they were things that he could use.

That item should also be available. It was the reason why he was so confident in rejecting Lingyun Sect.

”However all these paths are not suitable. The best way is to go from here!”

Yin Yang was startled to see Zong Shou's finger drawing a fine line on the beast skin, going through the east of the Sudian mountains.

”Prince, that is the Black Soil swamp, it also belongs to the Dragon Lake Plains. Although there aren't any high stage beasts, our carriage can't cross it...”

This path would definitely be unexpected. However, the Black Soil Swamp was famous not for the beasts hidden within, but for the packs of swamp wolves as well as Corpse-Consuming Ants, which were pretty much invisible presences in the swamp. Even stage five and stage six beasts would avoid them.

”So we need to modify our chariot or directly change it. Our current speed is too slow!”

With his body, without the carriage, he would definitely find it really hard to travel. Zong Shou mocked himself, pointing at the map, ”Let's first make a trip to Xiaoyuan City, I heard that it's famous for producing steel?”

What Zong Shou pointed to was near Pill Spirit Mountain, just three hundred miles away. Be it in the God Emperor game or in ancient records, this Xiaoyuan city was the eastern mining capital of the Donglin Cloud Continent, producing huge amounts of iron ore and also various metals, a place where spirit blacksmiths and spirit weaponsmiths thrived.

Even if it didn't have the scale of the future, it shouldn't lack for raw materials and spirit blacksmiths.

Yin Yang was also deep in thought, looking closely at the Wind Wall Formation around the carriage, he laughed bitterly, ”So be it! Let's follow your plan. Going out from Xiaoyuan City, we can directly enter Black Soil Swamp. Knowing that our ability is lacking and not fighting with them and giving up our lives, avoiding them is the best choice...”

Zong Shou's brow furrowed coldly, and he knew that Yin Yang had misunderstood his intentions. Him rushing to Cloud Saint City wasn't to escape from the Donglin Cloud Continent!
