999 Seven End Realms? (2/2)
Zong Shou's heart was like a bright mirror and he knew that no matter whether the news about it was real or fake, whether it was a smokescreen from Wei Xu, that Aokun wouldn't give up on it and would go over to take a look.
That was because his Existence and Destruction Dao needed this Creation Dao to perfect it.
Zong Shou drove his Royal Demon God Shuttle forward. He also started to try to control the surging King Path Energy.
”If I go all out, I should have strength comparable to half a step to Saint Realm. This is just at the barbarian land at the southeast of the Cloud World and the strength I can use in Yuanlian World is just a tenth of it. A top large-sized world is really not something that normal small and medium-sized worlds can compare to! However…”
Zong Shou's aura changed once more. He stopped using the Emperor Wind Technique and that raging energy suddenly retracted.
He needed to not let other people know he used the King Path Martial Arts.
Thus, he could only use around 70% of his cultivation, barely maintaining Peak God Realm cultivation.
To further improve and have Saint Realm strength, he would have to make use of secret techniques. Just like he planned…
The closer he was to Cloud World, the more Zong Shou thought about Xuanyuan Yiren and Kong Yao. However, he knew that Aokun had spoken wise words.
Although he couldn't return to the Cloud World, people from the Cloud World could come out to see him.
Xuanyuan Yiren and Kong Yao's identities were too sensitive and each and every movement was the focus of attention.
Important subjects like Renbo, Zhang Huai, Zong Yuan, and Ren Tianxing were the same.
This was why a day later Zong Shou met Hu Zhongyuan in the World River roughly five worlds away from the Cloud World.
This fellow was the only one who no one paid attention to.
After not seeing one another for a short few years, this fellow actually stepped into Spirit Realm too.
”This was all because of Ruler's Instant Space Dragon Hall which benefitted me a lot! Not only me, all the old people in Gantian all improved. However, I stepped into Spirit Realm first…”
Hu Zhongyuan gleefully explained, he was filled with delight.
After passing the Spirit Realm tribulation, one could be considered a celestial. One's lifespan would also extend to over 3,000 years, so no wonder he would be so delighted.
However, he still remembered the serious matters as he said solemnly, ”There seems to be a huge storm. Common People's Path's Three Sects and Six Schools have called back their disciples and are defending their mountains. Three days ago, someone saw the Confucian Temple in the Imperial Capital shining for an entire night. There were rumors that End Realm Saint Venerables had returned to the Cloud World. Seven were confirmed: Common People's Path's Yuanjing and Xiuguan, Taoist Faction's Qingxuan Taoist Lord, Taihuang Taoist Lord. I also heard that Zhu Zi of the Confucian Sect returned. Demon Sect's World Stepping Heaven Lord, Wushang Yuan Demon have all sent apparitions here. There are also some who we can't find out about. There is also news that the three Heavenly Places have already opened.”
Hu Zhongyuan described, his face was extremely ugly. This was the first time he had faced such a dangerous matter.
Seven End Realm cultivators gathered in the Cloud World. This was something that only happened during the prosperous times of the Ancient Cloud World.
Any one of them had the power to turn the world on its head and even sink a Cloud Continent.
Once war began, any place that was swept by the storm would implicate even normal cultivators.
In the past, he was still thinking back to the ancient times when Spiritual Energy was abundant, but now that the Spiritual Wave was about to arrive, it made one terrified and nervous.
”At this moment, the situation in the Cloud World is a spark away from war. General Qiu and Commander Kong are really worried and have stopped attacking the southeast of the Cloud World.
”Instead, they used more troops defending the borders to face off against Great Shang to restrict them.”
When he said this, he shook his head bitterly, ”I want to help Common People's Path, but we can only at most restrict a portion of Great Shang.”
Zong Shou squinted and listened quietly to Hu Zhongyuan speak.
He already had a rough understanding of the situation in the Cloud World.
”World Stepping Heaven Lord, Wushang Yuan Demon?”
These two Demon Sect End Realm Saint Venerables didn't come from the Cloud World but from the outer region during the Cloud Desolate Era.
The two of them weren't outer region alien races who went to the Cloud World to pillage resources. Instead, they went to spread faith, taking some of the Cloud World people as disciples.
This was why in the later parts of the Cloud Desolate Era, after the alien races were chased out, their Demon Sect line managed to survive.
It also gave rise to huge problems, nearly opening up the connection between Cloud World and those chaotic worlds.
Even at this moment there were still some remnants of those chaotic factions beneath the Cloud World.
Demonic Energy corrupted and caused beasts to change and become much fiercer.
At this moment, the two of them came definitely not to help Common People's Path.
There was also Zhu Zi. The End Realm Saint Venerable of the Confucians was pretty much the top of the Cloud World.
Even at this moment when there were two other Saint Venerables since Zhu Zi returned, then that person probably arrived too.
Thinking about this, his body felt cold and became covered in a cold sweat.
Apart from that, who knows how many Saint Venerables were staring at Common People's Path with nefarious intentions.
”Zhang Huai said that this is a scheme, to use power to suppress, to cause Common People's Path to breakdown. Such that Taoist Faction, Demon Sect, and the Confucians could act from within and cause them to be unable to go all out. It is just like how you forced Tianfang Guild into submission. I heard that many Spiritual Veins of Common People's Path are already under the Taoist Faction and Demon Sect and many aristocratic families called back their children who are in Common People's Path. Oh right…”
Hu Zhongyuan suddenly recalled something and took out a jade talisman.
