70 Chapter 70 Wind Travelling Spiritual Bone (1/2)
After they entered the city they learned that the City Lord of Cloud Saint City wasn't within the city. The one in charge of matters within the city was another person.
However, the Martial Masters taking care of him were still really respectful. Even those Xiantian Masters didn't dare to be arrogant. They directly arranged for his trio to stay in a place near the City Lord manor with heavy surveillance and even two Xiantian Masters protecting it. It was apparent that they knew about Zong Shou's current situation.
This was exactly what he wanted, not needing to go out and meet people and eat. Over the next few days he hid in his room. When he had matters, he instructed Yin Yang and Chuxue to do things while he totally remained in the house.
First, he drew some diagrams for Yin Yang to take to the only weapon shop in the city with eight advanced spirit blacksmiths. Next, he purchased fifty custom-made talisman knives, as well as some weird spare parts, herbs and medicinal grass.
The talisman knives he wanted would be listed as high-grade talisman weapons. Even with all the ingredients present, the eight advanced spirit blacksmiths still needed half a month to complete the job. However, the other matters were done in a few days.
He made another simple list of pills and medicines, as well as some metals and elite beast bones to be used to feed Little Gold. Apart from that, there were a few random ancient books that people had no idea about.
-----
He continued training the Great Blazing Sun Fist. Without the support of pills, Zong Shou bought several bottles of Cloud Whale Essence Oil to rub on his body.
Although the cloud whale was called a whale, it could fly in the air, freely traveling around the East Cloud Ocean.
Its wings were short and small, its flying speed far from that of birds. It was gigantic, however, and in the cloud ocean, apart from human whalers, it pretty much didn't have any enemy.
Its bones were really light, but tough, like steel forged a hundred times. This Cloud Whale Essence Oil was taken from it's bones, adding in some spirit herbs and crafted. It was a top bone-training medicine. The effects wouldn't let a person soar right to the top, but it wouldn't leave any after-effects.
Every time that Zong Shou rubbed the oil on his body, he felt like his entire body was on fire. Moreover, every time he did a set of the Great Blazing Sun Fist, he would only feel really comfortable, the feeling unable to be described with words.
However, the effects of the bone training weren't that apparent.
”'Martial arts internal training, training foundation and breathing, training bone and marrow, training vital energy and blood, training the organs, training the skin. This bone and skin training is the toughest! The skin can't handle force, which is why it is the toughest to train, so one can only use pills or over a long period of time to strengthen it. This bone training, due to it being tough and closely packed, even medicinal herbs can't seep in. Normal herbs are ineffective...”

Training bitterly for three days, his progress was really slow. Although he wasn't discouraged, he had given up hope on further improving his Chakra Meridians.
On the other hand, his soul power was increasing by the day. With the Energy Swallowing Technique and Sky Mirror Soul Shining technique, he grew really quickly.
The last time he broke through was twenty days ago. In just a short time he had already reached the peak of the Soul Observing Realm.
However, Zong Shou still wasn't satisfied.
”Fifteen days from now, I should be able to perfect the Focus Concentration Realm, but this bone training will take at least two months, it's too slow. To be able to protect myself, I think I still need to rely on those items. Although the speed is a little inappropriate, I can't care too much now...”
This Cloud Saint City was really close to that place. Zong Shou was filled with unbelievable craving, but he was still able to calm himself down and continue training and meditating.
He specially flipped out an aura consolidation art to be trained together with the Energy Leading art and the Great Blazing Sun Fist.
This method was created by people in the future. Usually it would lock all the energy inside one's body and not waste any, using internal breathing to lead and direct the vital energy to train the bones. However, this aura consolidation art was for the future, for that item. It was a really important element.
