Divine Brilliance

“Blood Sword Monster Lord!”

The Spirit Realm old man recognized Zong Shou right away. After exclaiming, his face turned ashen white. He held his breath and didn’t dare to make a sound.

The few other glows of light that flew over all stopped. They showed themselves and stopped on the spot, not daring to get any closer.

Zong Shou looked coldly at the old man from Shayuan Sect. His mind was spinning.

In that instant, he thought back to the details of this Sect. It wasn’t one of the 3,000 Taoist Factions and belonged to a neutral sect between the Righteous and Demon Paths.

This Qin Emperor sub tomb really was within the area of its control.

No killing intent rose in his heart. He also wasn’t an evil and bloodthirsty person.

Since this old man recognized him and wasn’t willing to be his enemy, then there was no need for him to attack.

He laughed and continued to charge forward. The Axe-Dagger below still continued to chase him.

There was instantly a loud clang as energy seeped all over. The Blood Sword Shadow struck it once and the Axe-Dagger was forced back and fell back down.

Within the tomb, there was a furious roar.

Although rage filled the air, it was still unable to charge out of the tomb. It was obvious that it couldn’t do anything to Zong Shou and could only roar at him.

Zong Shou stepped 100,000 feet in the air and looked around. He saw more and more Spiritual Lights fly over from all around.

They were mostly Grade-9 and Spirit Realm Cultivators made up 30% of them.

Zong Shou shook his head before casually heading towards the Imperial Capital in the east.

He didn’t worry about or fear anything. Even if people knew he had pillaged the tomb, they wouldn’t intend to chase him.

At this time, he really wished that people would offend him so that he had an excuse to stay a few more days within the Cloud World.

No one in Great Gan territory could do anything to him. However, now that he was over 100,000 miles away, even the Avici Throne wouldn’t be of any help.

Maybe these people would try?

Unfortunately, the Taoist Faction Cultivators along the way avoided him as if they had seen a snake or a scorpion, not even daring to come close.

The other Demon Path Sects had solemn expressions and didn’t dare to offend him.

The Buddhist Faction and the Sword Sect people had relationships with him, most of them nodded their heads and expressed politeness.

Zong Shou found it a waste. His plan could only be discarded. He rode on the Royal Demon God Shuttle and left Han Ocean.

The Qin Emperor Tomb had a God Realm presence, 300,000 Terracotta Warriors, 12 Copper Puppets. Those Spirit Realm Cultivators probably couldn’t do anything about it.

To successfully take out the items within, the sects had to find other methods or ask Celestial Realm Experts to work with them. To finally break the formation would take numerous days.

If he was the Head of the Vast Habitats, he would delay until he left the Cloud World.

This was why he didn’t think about the remaining items.

Anyway, most of the items were already in his hands and he was satisfied.

Half a day, traveling close to tens of thousands of miles, he stopped in a city roughly 2,000 miles away from the Imperial Capital. Zong Shou sent out a message talisman to where Jin Buhui was staying.

He then stopped the flying shuttle in mid air and started to look at his gains from this trip.

Naturally, what he looked forward to were those pills. He first opened those Pill Bottles one by one.

In just a moment, a smile appeared on his face.

Before he had chiseled open the sub tomb, it was totally sealed. It pretty much formed its own world, all energy merged into one. The Spiritual Energy was so thick that it maintained the level it was 10,000 years ago.

This was why all these pills were still kept in great condition. Only 20% of the medicine had weakened.

There weren’t many different types, but all of them were elite products.

Just the pills alone, their value was three times the Mind Stones that he consumed!

Apart from that, there were many Pill Recipes.

The Pill Refiners of the Cloud Desolate Era were pretty much all cut off after Qin.

After Qin was wiped out, there were so few Pill Recipes left. Even a huge Pill Refining Sect like Pill Fountain Sect had to slowly accumulate their Pill Recipes 13,000 years after Qin.

They didn’t have much relation with the recipes from the ancient times.

Zong Shou’s lip curled slightly. The pills were okay, although their prices were shocking, he wasn’t really too concerned with them.

However, these pill recipes were really good. If he brought them back for Xuanyuan Yiren, that girl would probably jump up and down in happiness.

Following this, his eyes swept across another item. A weird glow appeared within.

“What is this?”

The Spiritual Pills beside the Qin Emperor Tomb were all well kept in bottles, placed in large red boxes and then on sandalwood racks.

But, these few items that Zong Shou looked at were different. There were a few Iron Balls, roughly the size of water buckets. They looked black and felt smooth.

Zong Shou didn’t look closely at them before. Now when he picked up one of the Black Iron Balls in his hand did he notice that it was really heavy.

It wasn’t as heavy as a Small Sumeru Mountain, but it was close to a billion kilograms.

The patterns on it seemed really normal, but when one looked closely, one would notice that it was a really exquisite Spiritual Formation.

“It seems like Black Xuan Purple Hero Iron! I heard that this item was really strong and tough to break. During the Cloud Desolate Era, there were often people who used it to craft defensive artifacts. If you mix it with other Spiritual Metals, under the hands of a great blacksmith, one could create Celestial Artifacts. It was said that if it was used as armor, it could hide one’s aura. During the Cloud Desolate Era, there were many cultivators who used it to hide their cultivation to catch people off guard. Little Gold and Hanxi will have something good to eat. No, these two fellows actually dare to grumble, I should punish them by not giving them anything to eat…”

Zong Shou recalled while finding it weird, “However, why was this item placed beside pills. Oh? No, since this item could cut off Spiritual Energy and cover one’s aura, then wouldn’t it be best to preserve pills? Speaking of which, can these Iron Balls be seen as Pill Bottles? What is inside for them to use Black Xuan Purple Hero Metal?”

He was stunned as he looked on, he finally gritted his teeth, using Soul Power to dot on the Iron Ball.

Instantly, a Spiritual Light spread out, numerous restrictions appeared outside of the Iron Ball, closely packed together. There were around 20 layers and the structure was extremely tight.

Zong Shou looked on and sucked in a deep cold breath.

The formation protecting the pill within was also tightly locked.

Unless one had the bloodline of the Emperor or knew the seals or spells to open it, then when one broke the formation, if they made the slightest mistake, the pill within would be destroyed!

Zong Shou rubbed his brows in pain, hesitating for a moment before he gave it a try.

Not long ago, he had read thousands of scrolls and his attainments on formations were a little better than normal Spirit Realm Experts.

The reason why he was so confident wasn’t because of any other reason, but because he grasped the Cause and Effect and Fate Daos.

He drew from Spiritual Energy, forming a Luck word in the air with his fingers.

He changed his luck within these dozen breaths.

Following this, he inverted Cause and Effect, deciding on the Effect of him solving the restrictions, only then was there a Cause.

He waved his fingers, being led by the power of Cause and Effect to break those restrictions one by one.

The Soul Power and True Qi in his body was being consumed at a fast rate. Many huge beads of cold sweat formed on his forehead.

He felt that his Energy Meridians were about to dry up and that he would be unable to continue, thinking that he was going to fail.

The last restriction was finally opened.

The Iron Ball suddenly opened from within like an eight leaf lotus. A Pill Bottle appeared.

He grabbed and reached in. His face fluctuated between green and white.

“It is actually the Heaven Essence Life Creation Pill…”

His eyes shone, filled with joy, then worry and then he felt a headache.

“A Heaven Essence Life Creation Pill that can extend life by 80 years. The Great Qin Emperor really succeeded. There was actually no news leaked before Qin was wiped out!”

There were 10 within the Pill Bottle. Even if the medicinal properties weakened, they could still extend 400 years of life!

Inside 1 Iron Ball, there were 100 pills.

If the Extreme Purple Pill was much needed by the Vast Habitats, then this was enough to make all the Saint Realm Experts in the entire Cloud World, in the entire region, go crazy.

In other words, if other people found out, Great Gan would become everyone’s target and would not be safe!

Even Dragon Shadow wouldn’t be able to stop the greediness of all these Saint Realm Experts!

Thinking about how there were eight of these Iron Balls beside the coffin, he couldn’t help but give out a tragic cry. What should he do?

If he knew that that was the case, even if he got injured, he would take them all! He wouldn’t leave any of them.

As long as one person found out about the secrets within, he would be in deep trouble.

Speaking of which, how did such an unimportant sub tomb have such items?

If not for confirming that those 12 Country Protecting Copper Men weren’t there, he would have even thought that it was the true tomb.

At this moment, he held the pills in his hand, however, he found it extremely hot to the touch and really wanted to toss them all away.

“As expected, blessings come from disaster, there is disaster hiding in blessings…”

He had an idea. The only plan was to destroy the remaining few, even if he just messed up the restrictions and destroyed the pills within.

Without hesitating, he shot out a Star Shining Talisman. Although Mingyu just left, he had to be nearby.

The moment he saw the talisman, he would be able to return right away.

Zong Shou was deeply worried as he stared at the Iron Balls.

Although he was a member of Common People’s Path, the Sect stressed the importance of one’s own life.

He couldn’t let the Sect deal with these things alone…
