Chapter 1143 - Clue Appears (1/2)

“I think we have managed to defend this place!”

The nearby vengeful corpses didn’t show signs of crowding over. The corpse generals also didn’t make any movement.

Who knew whether they had already given up or were worried about Zong Shou, or maybe they were planning something else? Anyway, the corpse soldiers didn’t come within 50 miles of the area around the sky altar.

Within a short amount of time, they wouldn’t attack anymore. It was less than two hours away from the completion of the second core of the altar.

However, at this moment, everyone noticed something unusual about Zong Shou.

Although he was persisting in using the stone to treat Su Xiaoxiao, he searched all around with his eyes like he was looking for something, a weird expression on his face.

When Lin Xuanxuan saw this, she burst out laughing, “Are you feeling sad about that girl? Did you fall for her?”

Just now she had also seen what that girl looked like. She was indeed a rare beauty. Her aura was out of this world. Even she was surprised. It wasn’t unimaginable for Zong Shou to be tempted.

“Looking at her situation, she seems to be in a bad state. She is like a puppet, being controlled by others!”

“Senior Master is joking! This woman is named Leng Daiyu, and a few years ago, I clashed with her once!”

Zong Shou shook his head and was in deep thought, “However, the reason I am so conflicted is that the cultivation method she uses is similar to mine, the merging of the Dao! Moreover, in terms of attainments, she is even stronger than me…”

“How is that possible?”

Lin Xuanxuan’s face instantly turned ice-cold and serious, “Does she know your foundations? How old is she and how many years has she cultivated for?”

With her and Zong Shou, who was a temporary Saint Realm, naturally, they weren’t afraid that others would listen in.

She asked as she was worried that Zong Shou’s foundations had been leaked to others. He asked the latter one was because she wanted to know about how talented this girl was.

If she was old and had cultivated for a very long time, then she wasn’t much of a threat to Zong Shou.

In this world, she had never seen anyone who had a faster cultivation speed than Zong Shou.

If the two of them competed with one another, Zong Shou would have definitely reached the end first.

“I used the Unlimited Beginning and End Ability to fight her, so she definitely doesn’t know about my foundations.”

This was also what Dragon Shadow instructed him last time before he left.

Zong Shou always found it weird but had never gotten an answer to it.

“The last time I met her she must’ve been less than 20. At most, she is two years older than me. She might be the same age as me!”

“She’s actually so young!”

Lin Xuanxuan couldn’t help but take in a deep cold breath, “No wonder she wanted to fight with you for the remnant souls. Mostly it is because of the tens of thousands of abilities that Daoxuan had absorbed in the past. However…”

Thinking back to the process of how Zong Shou fought with her, she felt a little uneasy.

This girl shouldn’t have been at Saint Realm. The reason why she was able to compete and fight with Zong Shou was because she used some sort of secret technique.

When the direction of the sickle changed, it seemed a little stiff.

This was definitely not a case of her not being familiar with the sickle technique.

It had to be because she was unable to grasp the ability that she controlled.

In the fight, in just an instant, they clashed 1,000 times. Zong Shou seemed like he was suppressed but Lin Xuanxuan could see that Zong Shou had peaked through the weakness and strength of her foundations and he was definitely going to win.

Leng Daiyu retreated at the right time. If she delayed, then Zong Shou was definitely going to forcefully make her stay.

If not for being worried that the altar would be attacked by the corpse army, this girl wouldn’t have been able to escape from Zong Shou’s attacks.

She thought about something and she exclaimed, “You said that her Sickle technique wasn’t trained through normal means but through others?”

Zong Shou nodded. That was what he guessed. If not, all of this was just too weird.

“Human Shaped Celestial Treasure? To be able to craft such a Celestial Treasure that is on your level, how strong must that person be? Zong Shou, do you have any clues?”

“Sheng Mountain!”

The first time they met was in Zong Shou’s last life, at the peak of Sheng Mountain in the game environment.

“Sheng Mountain?”

Lin Xuanxuan nodded her head, “I will let our Common People’s Path disciples pay attention to it.”

Be it for this girl’s Ten Thousand Dao Merging ability or the person who was able to craft this Human Shaped Celestial Treasure, they had to pay close attention.

Zong Shou knew that this was all they could do now.

However, not only did the Common People’s Path have to investigate, but so did Great Gan.

In the past, it was okay since they didn’t have much strength. Now, he had enough rights and the ability to get to the bottom of this.

To rescue that girl from pain had been one of his few wishes and goals.

However, apart from that, there was another matter he was thinking about.

The person who stopped Daoxuan and allowed Su Xiaoxiao to live, that female voice was really familiar. He had heard it before and she was connected to him!

Unfortunately, she had been hidden and didn’t show herself.

When he heavily injured Daoxuan, she escaped and didn’t give him any chance.

At that time, he himself couldn’t get distracted and worry about other things.

“I definitely heard her voice before. I remember that it was…”

Cultivators remembered everything they saw. People like Zong Shou could even record down everything he experienced to the smallest detail in his mind.

Due to his incredible memory and ability to recall everything, it made it tough for him to search for it.

“I recall that it was a few months ago when I returned to Gantian Mountain…”

Zong Shou’s body instantly froze. A bright light shone in his eyes.
