Chapter 279: Chapter 279 Nothing More Than Death

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Using the illusionary heart mirror realm, even with the second soul one origin sword’s help, Zong Shou was defeated in one breath.

However, Zong Shou wasn’t afraid of being killed. Being in an illusion, his soul also wouldn’t be affected. Outside the door was that silly girl who was still playing the soul calming spiritual tune, he didn’t have anything to worry about it.

He went all out, using spells and talismans to block the attacks and suppression of the day wandering spirit master.

In this illusionary realm, everything followed Zong Shou’s memory. In the last life, he had been through hundreds of battles and was really knowledgeable. He understood spirit masters like the back of his fingertips. This day wandering spirit master modeled from the illusionary heart mirror was 80-90% realistic. It really had the ability to split rivers and break mountains, it’s methods were also really indiscernible and wasn’t fixed like a bot.

He pretty much didn’t use the same method of tackling the enemy twice. Thousands of spells that Zong Shou knew about were all used.

From start to finish, it instakilled Zong Shou.

Actually if one changed into the martial path even if he used his 2 meridian xiantian cultivation, he believed he could use his martial path intent to last for above 4 breaths.

But this was an illusionary realm to train his spirit mast combat techniques. Zong Shou was only limited to spirit master skills. This put him at a loss, not knowing what he should do and what

Hundreds of engagements later, Zong Shou finally managed to block one of the spells. Then, he was destroyed and wiped by the vast heaven-like spiritual energy.

However, the number of spells he blocked started to slowly increase. 1, 2, 3, 4. Until he occasionally entered the 2nd breath of time.

Maybe due to this high-pressure fighting, the spirit master fighting style he slowly formed was slightly different. He either made use of his talismans to break the spells before they were formed or think of a way to prevent the spell from being cast. It was all extremely dangerous methods, using weak to fight the strong.

At the start, Zong Shou was still calculating the time, but after 8 minutes he couldn’t help but let loose. He forgot all about himself, only knowing how to continuously analyze and continuously internalize.

Who knows how long had passed before his consciousness slowly recovered. Then he was extremely surprised that he could regularly enter the 6th breath under this day wandering spirit master’s attacks. When he moved, there seemed to be a tempo that was extremely quick, making one dazzled and impressed.

One after another spell was cast by him, not only were they much quicker, but his understanding of the talismans was obviously better than before.

“Just now, I entered an enlightenment stage...”

Thinking carefully back to before, it didn’t seem so either. However, when he was fully focused on fighting, indeed he felt like inspirations came like a flood, surging and not stopping. His thoughts were several times faster than usual too.

Under such a stage, no matter what he learned, he would be much quicker.

But since it wasn’t enlightenment, then what was it? Was it because of this illusionary heart mirror? Speaking of which, he had used this mirror and did some things.

It was a self-cast illusionary technique used in the future which spirit masters used on themselves.

Through continuously hypnotizing themselves to cause their heart to be clear and their thoughts to be unobstructed.

This was also the roughest way of using it. Roughly 5 thousand years later there was a pervert who hypnotized himself to make him think he was a unique god spirit.

In the end, this person actually became unbelievably strong. Not only did he self create a religion, but he also stepped into the saint realm.

Zong Shou didn’t have that ability and also such high confidence.

This spell’s fast progress had one weakness. Once one’s confidence broke and the hypnosis was removed, he would lose 90% of the cultivation.

In the end, that person who self-created the god hypnosis technique fell in such a way.

Zong Shou wasn’t willing to follow in his footsteps and end up in tragedy. He only used some harmless and effective spells proven in the future. Using the illusionary heart mirror to strengthen the effects.

However, even then it shouldn’t have caused him to enter such a state no different from enlightenment.

Suddenly a zither tune rang out in his years. Zong Shou opened his eyes, and he had some idea in his head as he looked out towards the gate.

He basically guessed the reason. That the illusionary heart mirror was one reason and Xuan Yunlan’s soul calming spiritual tune also had a large effect.

This tune was also much different from when it began. It helped purify and improve, each note was perfect, not fast and not slow, not light and not heavy. It was enough to rid one of all thoughts, wishing they could bathe their soul in this song.

This was the soul calming spiritual tune! A legendary sound element technique that at its peak could tame grade 9 beasts!

Using his mind to slightly feel, he could sense that Xuan Yunlan was extremely focused. She closed her eyes and smiled like this tune also made her extremely comfortable and soothed her heart.

Near to her, Chuxue had long fallen asleep. The other guards were all in a daze, extremely quiet.

He looked out at the sunlight that shone in from the window. It was already noon, obviously exceeding the agreed 2 hours.

Zong Shou’s mouth was agape, thinking that it was called character. So it seems like the one who reached enlightenment wasn’t himself but that dumb girl.

The words that he had said seemed to have taught her something and caused her to break some sort of barrier.

Heavens really takes pity on people. He really didn’t think too much, he thought it was good if she increased her worth if she didn’t forget it.

He sighed for a moment before tossing out all the thoughts in his head. He didn’t hesitate to light up a few purple sandalwoods incenses, placing it in front of him. Then he carefully took a luck talisman and pasted it on his head.

This chance was really hard to come by. Even if he would face bad luck in the next few hours, he didn’t care.

He controlled the illusionary heart mirror once more and shone it on his head.

His thoughts instantly entered a meditative state. In his thoughts, there was only a purify word.

He then tore apart tens of spritual charms and runes, and then fixing them together and joining them once more.

One after another, he purified the word in his mind time after time such that there weren’t any mistakes and weaknesses.

He made this word match with the path of heaven and earth, resonating with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Who knows when, but Little Gold on his left arm had actually given out an interesting feeling.

In front of Zong Shou, heaven and earth spiritual energy started to gather on its own. Repeatedly it was that purify word which all looked exactly the same. Each change caused the spiritual energy within these ten thousand feet to be a little purer.

The entire thousand feet wide cultivation room, all the dust was pushed by an external strength to the corner.

Causing the area that Zong Shou was sitting on to be unusually clean.

Moreover, this talisman had more use on his soul and body. If he could look at himself, he could feel the true Qi in his body becoming extremely pure. The soul ocean whirlpool was so clear that it was nearly transparent.

During this comprehension, Zong Shou totally forgot about the time once more.

Until the talisman in his mind repeated several times without any improvement did he come back to his senses.

He knew that even if he continued, he wouldn’t have any progress. This was the accumulation of talisman technique knowledge as well as a lack of experience.

“This is true enlightenment.”

A purple glow flashed in Zong Shou’s eyes, showing some surprise.

“I have completed 6 true spiritual talismans. In the future, I just need to slowly comprehend for half a year to totally understand it. If I find books with records of this talisman, the time can be shortened.”

A spirit master’s cultivation, after that leaps and bounds stage, even some talents wouldn’t be able to improve for 4-5 years.

To be able to enter the next realm in half a year, Zong Shou was already really satisfied. This speed was no less than those direct disciples of sects who had huge amounts of resources helping them.

His brain was still unusually active. Under both the tune and the illusionary heart mirror, he was filled with inspiration.

Just as he wanted to continue on, to comprehend the king path martial techniques, his brows furrowed as he looked into the distance.

Because of the tune and the illusionary heart mirror, Zong Shou was extremely sensitive.

In that instant, he captured an intent with nefarious thoughts stabbing over.

“It’s an ascended ancestor...”

Pretty much at the same time, Zong Shou recognized the strength of the intent as well as the killing intent within.

His thoughts spinning as in just a short while he roughly guessed where that person came from.

“...Demon Mountain Sect?”

Zong Shou sighed, this was a problem.

This Gantian mountain city was his own home ground and he wasn’t afraid of this ascended ancestor.

An 8 meridian Xuanwu ancestor like Hu Qianqiu just needed to be prepared and used the strength of 400 thousand troops and he could go up against the ascended ancestor. If he could improve another grade then just 100 thousand would be enough.

That day Qiu Wei and Hu Qianqiu was outnumbered by Zong Shi by several times but was able to have an advantage was because of that.

He also could borrow the strength of the country. Although he was only xiantian 2 meridians, and there wasn’t much he could use for his own, with his martial path cultivation, it wouldn’t be a problem to keep his life.

However, the strength of an ascended ancestor was in his body. If he wanted to be enemies with Gantian mountain, he can drag it out and assassinate people, then Zong Shou really had not many ways to stop him.

In 2-3 years he can forget about leaving Gantian mountain.

Moreover, this person was also so careful, like he was waiting for something. He had some feeling like an even bigger crisis was coming.

He was afraid that apart from this person there were other experts, maybe there was a grandmaster level person.

A sharp light shining in his eyes as his heart turned cold.

However, even so, he definitely didn’t regret what happened at Blood Valley demon corpse mountain.

Even if he knew he would be hunted and taken revenge upon and enter a thousand calamities, he would still attack without hesitation!

Born in this world, there were things he should do and things he shouldn’t. If at that time he still kept silent and watched on then what was the purpose of him even living?

Grandmaster expert? If he can’t win, then he would just die!
