140 Chapter 140 Four Vein External Pill (1/2)

Each mind stone would take up to half an hour. Little Gold swallowed sixteen mind stones before being unable to swallow anymore.

Its body had swelled up into a big ball once more, but it didn't look like it was in pain. It jumped onto his palm and squirmed around in a really friendly manner.

Zong Shou laughed, taking out that mine core and drawing two talismans. One was ”shake” and the other was ”tear”.

A light exploded out in his eyes as he shouted, ”Break!”

That mind stone mine core instantly started to shake and numerous tear patterns broke out. In just a short while, it started to break into pieces.

Instantly two silver white lights surged out from within like pythons, one charging out from the left and the other from the right.

When these two pythons charged to forty feet out, there was an invisible barrier there that forcibly rebounded them.

Zong Shou didn't dare treat them lightly, as he knew that his spiritual formation was too low Grade, and was unable to last for too long. His right hand formed into a seal and he once again shouted out, ”Direct!”

A bright light suddenly exploded from the tummy of Little Gold, who was lying in his palm. It seemed like the two spiritual veins were forcibly directed by a power and gathered in front of his body.

Little Gold was a little uneasy at the start and tried to struggle. After a short while it realized that the two balls of silver white light not only didn't mean any harm towards him, but instead benefited him, and he quieted down, allowing those two pythons to drill into his stomach.

The entire process took six hours, and only then did the two metal element spiritual veins totally merge into that Spiritual Vein Pearl. The entire process seemed to be smooth and without danger.

When Zong Shou completed it, his forehead was filled with dense sweat, his face was also ashen white. Compared to the battle with Li Yaling, he was a little more tired.

The spiritual vein itself didn't have a mind of its own, which was why it could be controlled. However, it had a natural characteristic of flowing around and dissipating, and was also really sensitive to changes in spiritual energy.

What was most difficult wasn't to direct it over, but to trap it and restrict it. The full six hours, he was totally focused on his soul and the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth being on the same wavelength.

Even more soul power was needed to prevent this spiritual vein from flowing away or dissipating. He consumed so much strength, no different from fighting a tough opponent, going all out for six complete hours.

-This spiritual vein is expectedly tough to control! No wonder Spiritual Vein Pearls need spirit masters who have reached the Back to Sun Realm to craft. To be able to capture one is already really difficult. To lead it into a Spiritual Vein Pearl needs oceanic amounts of soul power and one needs to be really precise with his spiritual energy control. Every increase of one vein will increase the difficulty tenfold...

-Finding ingredients which are also able to accept five spiritual veins is also really difficult and really rare. External pills like Yiren's are worth their weight in gold. Today it was because I was lucky to be able to find this mine core, the spiritual vein within it was already really dormant and tamed, so I was able to improve this Spiritual Vein Pill…-

Once the last bit of light was totally swallowed by the Spiritual Vein Pill, Zong Shou sat down cross-legged and entered meditation. Only when the Darkness Blooming Cereus gave out a spiritual energy fluctuation did he awaken.

He hadn't managed to recover much spiritual energy, his eyes still showing his exhaustion.

His face, on the other hand, was really excited. With a a thought, Little Gold turned into a thin mask and started to spread over his hand, covering his chest like silver armor, wrapping around his whole upper body.

There were also many small needles, which drilled into his muscles and connected to his meridians.

The current Little Gold seemed to be a part of his body. The Spiritual Vein Pearl which had been upgraded to Grade Four used Little Gold's body as a middleman to inject huge amounts of spiritual energy into his body.

The spiritual power within him started to be replenished, surging rapidly and boiling in agitation. The power in his body seemed to have swelled up several times!

His body's reaction to the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth, especially metal elemental spiritual energy, seemed to be slowly increasing.

Every time the true qi in his body moved, it was able to attract and gather up a large amount of spiritual energy.

”This is Xiantian…”

A long wished-for feeling had finally filled Zong Shou's head, and his heart also trembled. Even though he had reached Xiantian Realm only because he was borrowing the strength of the external pill, he still found it tough to keep his emotions in check.

The energy surging within his body was true qi; it was power, actual power that he could control and use!

Breathing out loud, Zong Shou stabbed out with his sword. At the tip of the Lightning Tooth Sword, a sword energy surged out, giving out a loud pu, only dissipating sixty feet away.

Stone shrapnel flew in all directions. He had actually pierced a small and precise hole into the stone wall. The sword was really sharp, but silent and without a sign.
