What's going on? Does this mean that heavenly law doesn't approve of his existence? Thinking of this, Zhou Yun Sheng sneered, this wasn't heavenly law, but the Lord God itself, it certainly wouldn't acknowledge an escaped prisoner. The junk-like fog spiritual roots were probably also its masterpiece.
After four more attempts, Zhou Yun Sheng gave up and walked out to find his master.
"How can you not draw qi into your body?" Zong Yi grabbed his small disciple's fingers, sending out his spiritual awareness to probe his dantian, then his eyes widened in astonishment. The Steal Heaven's Fortune Pill could raise a person's potential to the limit, logically speaking, his small disciple should have no problems getting started.
"Heavenly law has rejected me, it refuses to let spiritual energy into my dantian." When facing his lover, Zhou Yun Sheng felt he had nothing to hide.
Zong Yi's mouth twitched, he gave a wry smile, "Even my small disciple is not tolerated by heavenly law. Very well." He pondered for a moment, then took something out from within his space ring.
Zhou Yun Sheng moved closer to take a look and found a strange stone with a transparent outer layer, and dark spiral shaped inner layer. An extremely frightening gravitational force was concealed within the center of the stone, sucking in the surrounding spiritual energy. Even the light from the night pearl used to illuminate the palace was being sucked in, it swayed erratically, drawing streaks of light in the air.
"What is this?" Zhou Yun Sheng asked in astonishment.
"This is … …" Zong Yi paused suspiciously, then waved, "You don't need to know, just know that this stone can absorb all things, even light. Put it in your inner core and the problem will be solved."
If it can even absorb light, isn't it like a black hole? Zhou Yun Sheng took the stone to get a closer look, it looked more and more like a miniature black hole up close, but the outside layer was a transparent shell. He glanced at Zong Yi and probed, "You really don't know what this stone is?"
Zong Yi looked a little embarrassed, but didn't speak.
"Where did you find it?" Zhou Yun Sheng continued to question.
"From … …" another suspicious pause, then Zong Yi admitted frankly, "Master doesn't know where the stone came from. One day, it suddenly appeared in my ring and absorbed all the treasures I'd kept in there. Master felt it looked important enough to keep."
Zhou Yun Sheng thought of the black hole they were sucked into in the last life, thought of his lover's ever increasing strength, then sighed at his own bad luck. Fortunately, he'd met his lover, or he'd have no way to escape the Lord God's Black Hand.
"Give me a drop of your life blood, after I refine it, I'll put it in your abdomen." Zong Yi took out a small jade bottle.
Zhou Yun Sheng dropped some life blood into the jade bottle.
After three more months, Zong Yi finally refined the stone, then used an incantation to put it into Zhou Yun Sheng's abdomen. This time when he cultivated, the feeling was significantly different, Zhou Yun Sheng could absorb as much spiritual energy as he wanted, and there was no feeling of overload. If Zong Yi hadn't placed a few spiritual vein concealing arrays in Shattered Heaven Palace, the strong spiritual energy whirlpool would draw the attention of all parties.
In only one short month, Zhou Yun Sheng crossed over Lianqi Qi and entered late stage Zhuji. A 16-year-old at Zhuji could be considered a young genius, but the premise was that they'd started cultivating from childhood. For a 16-year-old to begin at 16 and reach Zhuji, not to mention Grand Heaven World, even the other Large Thousand Worlds wouldn't have such a person.
"Your mind was damaged for a long time. Train with this cultivation method, it can help mend it." Zong Yi called over his small disciple and handed him a jade book.
Zhou Yun Sheng took it and inputted his spiritual power. This was a very rare soul refining method, refining the mind by absorbing the light of the sun and moon. Truly, whatever he lacked the man provided it, he really was too loving and considerate. He climbed on top of Zong Yi's knee and silently hugged his waist for a long time.
Zong Yi quickly hugged him back, his fingers slipping into his hair to slowly caress it, he spoke softly, "You really love to be spoiled, just like in my dreams."
The corner of Zhou Yun Sheng's mouth twitched. He really couldn't understand it, they clearly have so many sweet and warm memories together, why did the man always firmly remember his most embarrassing sides. Couldn't he remember his cool and handsome sides?
Forget it, as long as he likes it. Zhou Yun Sheng twisted around and pulled his lover's hands around his waist, then coldly hmphed.
Sure enough, he loves to be spoiled. Zong Yi chuckled in his heart, then embraced him firmly as he flew them to the Inner Sect's Book Pavilion, he explained, "Although you want to create your own law, you cannot build a cart behind closed doors. You must first try to find a few cultivation methods related to fog spiritual roots to use as a reference. Then master will take you to the Great Fog Border to cultivate. The extent to which you can cultivate depends solely on your ability to learn."
[Build a cart behind closed doors- to be overly subjective and disregard the outside world.]
At this sentence he slightly paused, then said confidently, "Small disciple's ability to learn is very good, so don't worry, we can take our time."
Zhou Yun Sheng nodded his agreement, once again sighing for his lover's consideration. The man was afraid that if he was too anxious to get results he would invite in internal demons right? As long as his lover was by his side, even if he never went back home, he didn't care.
The two people landed in front of the Book Pavilion. The staff responsible for cultivation method management quickly greeted them.
"No need to stand on ceremony, we'll be fine from here." Zong Yi dropped his small disciple on the ground and flicked his sleeve.
The book master felt relieved, he bowed and handed them two Passage Talismans.
Zhou Yun Sheng didn't want to miss out on any exercises related to fog spiritual roots, he began rummaging from the top cultivation methods, then searched down layer by layer, Zong Yi by his side.
"Cultivation methods similar to fog spiritual roots are so rare!" Reaching the bottom row, Zhou Yun Sheng held up two jade books, shook his head and sighed.
"Look again, no hurry." Zong Yi comfortingly patted his head, his eyes full of love and affection. His small disciple had reached Zhuji at 16, so his stature would stay at 16. His height wasn't high, and he looked very thin and weak, like a stiff wind could knock him down, Zong Yi couldn't help but want to embrace and protect him in his arms.
Zhou Yun Sheng nodded, glanced down the wooden shelves, then his gentle face was suddenly covered with ice.
He'd noticed Song Yufei, who was gripping a jade book and staring at him with wide open horror. There's no need to guess at why he'd forgotten propriety, anyone who detects Fang Xinghai's late stage Zhuji cultivation base would also be shocked silly. Already Zhuji in just four months? Song Yufei, who always felt he had amazing talent worth boasting about, had broken into Zhuji Qi after a full five years.
A good master really makes all the difference. Thinking of Taiping Zhenren, who was now treating him with obvious cold indifference, Song Yufei felt inescapable resentment.
"Let me look at the jade book in your hands." Zong Yi suddenly opened.
Song Yufei reflexively gripped the jade book tighter, the stunning woman in the jade pendant immediately shouted, "Absolutely do not give it to him!" This was the legendary cultivation method of the Immortal World, "Nine chaotic circles body refining technique". Those who cultivate this method could turn their flesh into a powerful weapon, invincible, not to mention taking down ancient spirit soldiers with bare fists, even a sharp look could kill.
This cultivation method was lost to the Immortal World for many years, but turns out it had somehow fallen down to Grand Heaven World, and also ended up classified as a low level cultivation method because of its very slow cultivation speed, which was almost laughable. If not for the woman's wide range of spiritual awareness, she might have missed it.
"Don't give it to him! This cultivation method has extraordinary origins, a treasure from the world of Immortals." The woman urgently added.
After listening to this, Song Yufei's heart shook violently, he racked his brain for a way to slip out of his predicament.
Zong Yi's expression was chilling. This woman, an insignificant Mysterious Immortal, actually dared try to play him for a fool to his face. She didn't know that her so-called unbreakable ban had been torn apart from the moment he'd looked at her. Zong Yi clearly heard everything she said.
Of course, even if she hadn't said it, Zong Yi could already tell that the jade book was extraordinary. He threw out a thread of black light and wrapped it around the jade book, easily snatching it away, then used his spiritual awareness to browse the book.
Although the jade book's title was "Promise body refining technique", Zong Yi swept his eyes below the surface and saw its true title, "Nine chaotic circles body refining technique", the world's most powerful body refining cultivation method.
He was born in Grand Heaven World, his age wasn't large, but he instinctually knew the inner workings of the upper Spirit World and Immortal World, and the lower Three Thousand Large Worlds, Three Thousand Medium Worlds, and Three Thousand Small Worlds as well. He himself didn't know why he was like this, no men were born wise and knowledgeable, but there wasn't much to investigate on.
He handed the method to his small disciple then softly said, "We finally had a success today, let's go back."
The woman could barely hold back her desire to attack him. Although this man was only at Dasheng Qi, his spiritual power contained a very terrible coercion, making her dignified Mysterious Immortal heart feel frightened.
She hoarsely urged, "You need to get that cultivation method back. With that method, you could easily take on 9×9 Heavenly Tribulations, that way my return to the Immortal World can be hastened by hundreds of years."
Song Yufei hurriedly chased them outside, he shouted, "Grand Elder, this junior saw the exercise first, don't they say first come, first served … …"
"The Butian Herb also belonged to my brother first, but weren't you trailing behind him, watching unfeelingly as he was murdered by devil path disciples so you could sweep in to rob it? If the devil path disciples hadn't appeared, you would've probably done it yourself. Don't give me such a bullshit sermon, I fancy this cultivation method, it's mine, if you have the ability, you can grab it back." Zhou Yun Sheng suddenly turned around, his eyes scarlet red with rage.
He'd used a soul searching technique to find Fang Wen Guang's soul, wanting to send him to reincarnation, but the magic tool used to kill him belonged to disciples from the Soul Eater Sect. The magic tool had long ago destroyed his life essence, making him completely disappear from this side of heaven and earth. Although Song Yufei and friends were unlikely to have recognized the cultivation method of the Soul Eater Sect, ultimately, they'd refused to lend a helping hand. From now on, he would take away all the things they cared about.
The surrounding disciples going about their business had gathered around to watch, they heard this and their eyes filled with contempt as they glared at Song Yufei.
Song Yufei immediately felt extremely embarrassed, he couldn't move the blame forward, nor take the blame back. Zong Yi's dark eyes glanced at him, then he picked up his small disciple and flew toward Silent Fire Peak.
The stunning woman sighed and said, "You and Fang Xinghai already have bad karma, you have to think of a way to resolve it. Otherwise, he will always hinder your practice."
"In what ways can I resolve it? He has Grand Elder to protect him, if I lay a hand on him, I would be beaten down by Grand Elder. Even you feel pressure form Grand Elder, I'm afraid we're not his opponents." Song Yufei slowly turned to leave, mocking himself in his heart.
The woman rested her palm on her forehead, her expression depressed.
Song Yufei's last sentence had been a test, seeing this scene, he finally confirmed, the woman really wasn't Grand Elder's opponent. His heart sank, but after a moment, he calmed down. In this world, there were thousands of ways to make someone disappear, he didn't have to personally take them out, he just needed a good plan for the future, a way to let someone else do the dirty work.
