509 Legacy Land (1/2)
Seeing Zong Shou not give a reaction, Ye Feishuang frowned. She wanted to persuade him, but in the end, she shook her head. ”Your actions seem to be reckless but you have your own plans... Choosing to attack the second shrine's Yuanshi Demon Sect is enough to threaten and warn the other sects... Making enemies with a single sect is better than offending everyone here.”
Her tone was filled with respect, however, Zong Yuan could only look over with worry.
He didn't care much about the Yuanshi Demon Sect. Gantian Mountain had enough ability to go up against them.
The reason for his worry is only because Zong Shou paid such a price to help him get a spot, this made him feel uneasy.
It was also because just now with Zong Shou's personality, it seemed to be a little off. He didn't hesitate to attack the Yuanshi Demon Sect disciples, the sharpness of his attacks even made him feel a little weird.
Zong Shou was startled since he noticed that he was being looked at like this by Zong Yuan, following after, he fell into deep thought.
Did he become arrogant? Perhaps too arrogant? Did he lose his heart due to his strength?
After thinking about it carefully, Zong Shou slightly shook his head.
With Hanxi and the Lightning Winged Dragon who had recently advanced to grade-8 along with the two paper men, he could even face a peak grade-9 expert.
Moreover, with the four thousand Blood Cloud Cavalry of Gantian, it was more than enough to go up against any sect.
Thinking upon it carefully, Zong Shou's brows frowned.
This was because he finally understood the reason. The other ”him” had already returned.
After losing his father at a young age and his entry to a famous school was snatched. He was 18 years old when he roamed the business fields to have some slight achievements, but he was then plotted against, this resulted in the death of his mother.
When he turned 21, he had no choice but to become a librarian. When he touched God Emperor and started his cultivation journey, he was filled with hatred. He hated the heavens for having no eyes and the earth for having no heart. In his eyes, he had no pity anymore, everyone was better off dead.
When he finally had some small achievements in God Emperor, he left the library and entered the area beneath the Cloud Ocean several times.
On one side, he trained his sword techniques and martial path within God Emperor, on the other, he went beneath the Cloud Ocean to start his practical battles.
Unknowingly he obtained the Styx River Death Sword and started crazily killing.
Numerous cultivators fell under his hands. There was also an ocean of beasts that died in front of him.
At that time, he was no different from the Hundred Thousand Blood Killer Li Yaling.
This happened until he was 30, after he broke through to the ascended realm, plotting and killing the people who caused his mother's death. Following this, he returned to the library to cultivate and take care of his body.
However that 'him' who had disappeared at that time seems to have come back.
Zong Shou thought about it and knew that it was mostly the side effect of the Stargazing Tower.
He saw the beginning of an entire world, those scenes had impacted the foundations of his path.
Zong Shou laughed involuntarily. He had no intention to suppress his other self. The other him was also a part of his history, a part of who he was. He would just let nature take its course, there was no need to reject the other him.
After returning back to the library to retract his killing heart, it wasn't because he regretted it, but because he knew that if he continued to kill, it would be more harmful than beneficial for him.
However, now, since his own heart felt that this violent method was the best to use in this situation, then it was fine. Why can't he just use a domineering method to live his life?
Ye Feishuang didn't know about the changes in Zong Shou's mind. However, after hearing the tone of the two men who were speaking, it was like they didn't care about the Yuanshi Demon Sect, she couldn't help but feel infuriated.
”I really don't know if you both are crazy or too arrogant!”
She couldn't help but mock them, Ye Feishuang slightly hesitated before she handed a jade letter over, ”The Legacy Land is a maze. However, there are patterns that can be found. These are the memories of both Feihan and I. It which might help the both of you two. There is also one thing that you have to remember. Within the Legacy Land, you might not be able to use external powers…”
Out of their group, Feihan and her wouldn't enter. Chuxue also didn't have the strength to, moreover, she was currently in deep sleep. Ruoshui also didn't have anything related to the dragon race.
Thus the two spots would only be left to Zong Yuan and Zong Shou.
Zong Shou took the jade letter without any hesitation and sent his spiritual sense in. After a moment, he memorized it all before handing it over to Zong Yuan.
While the few of them were speaking, Fangming had decided on who would join the remaining spots.
The atmosphere within the hall instantly relaxed. Although there were people who were unhappy, they weren't willing to voice it out. The sects that managed to be chosen also selected their members to go in.
Most of them were grade-7. However, sects like the Tailing Sect and the Yuanshi Demon Sect basically had one to two grade-9 spiritual grandmasters.
After looking at the situation, Fangming was prepared to enter personally. Who knows what secret technique he used to suppress his aura to the grade-7 level?
The entrance to the Legacy Land was a stone door at the depths of the hall, it was extremely huge.
Zong Shou followed behind them and entered. First, he was suddenly stabbed by a strong glow such to the point that he was unable to open his eyes.
When he finally regained his sight, he was already in a vast piece of wilderness.
Only now did he know what Ye Feishuang meant when she said that he would be unable to use external strength.
The two puppets were suppressed by a mysterious power right as he entered. It forced him to keep and turn them back into two paper talismans.
Hanxi also found it really uncomfortable, it quickly took the initiative to hide back in the spirit beast bag by Zong Shou's waist.
As for the Lightning Winged Dragon, it hid deeply within his arm, not making any movements.
However... This external force should only refer to grade-7 and above strength.
There was nothing weird about Little Gold who was wrapped around his left hand.
