Divine Brilliance

Within a wide and majestic hall, Zong Shou sat cross-legged.

100 feet in front of him, Little Gold was also seated.

At this moment, its body was pale gold, finally bearing some resemblance to its name.

Looking at its current shape, it was several times smaller Zong Shou.

However, its shape and size were really similar.

This was because it had absorbed a large amount of his Essence blood. Wanxiang could change into anything, any living spirit. He was considered a living being.

Zong Shou didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. If it wanted to pass a tribulation, selecting Qilin was the best.

At this moment, Little Gold also absorbed Xiaori’s blood from before. Each time it transformed into the Qilin, the puppy would really treat it as a brother. One could see how good its ability was.

Qilin was an auspicious beast and protected by Heaven and Earth. As such, tribulations were the simplest.

Not worrying too much, Zong Shou looked at the Spiritual Formation within to see if he had missed anything.

This place was 1,900 miles away, a mountain which belonged to Yuehan Sect.

The entire sect also abandoned the place similar to Yelan Temple, leaving an empty place.

Zong Shou occupied it to let Little Gold pass its tribulation. The entire Spiritual Mountain had 10 Earth Veins that Zong Shou had forcefully gathered.

It caused the Spiritual Energy of the small stone hall to be sucked dry.

As for the Spiritual Formation, it wasn’t used to help it, but to strengthen the connection between man and beast.

Out of his few Protector Beasts, Rising Moon Lion couldn’t keep up and he had passed it to Ruoshui. The Monster Eye Silver Bear was unable to awaken its intelligence so he had given it up.

He was left with the Lightning Winged Dragon, Hanxi and Xiaori. Little Gold who followed him from the earliest period, its potential also exceeded the first two, but was on the same level as Xiaori. However, it was still unable to mentally connect with him, joined by heart. If anything was different, it was just that their connection was a little close.

However, it was unable to obtain Heaven and Earth Pass comprehension from him.

Zong Shou was always impressed by this. Although Little Gold could still keep up with him, once he broke through to Spirit Realm, after breaking the Heaven Barrier he would instantly be High-Grade Spirit Realm.

He would have to leave Little Gold behind…

This tribulation was the only chance. All Protector Beasts, as long as they survived the Heaven Realm tribulation, there was a chance to raise their soul and mental connection with their Master.

Especially Little Gold who followed him for several years. From its birth till now, reaching Grade-9, their relationship was really deep. There was at least a 70% possibility of becoming a Natural Protector Beast.

The formation here maximized this possibility.

Anticipation appeared in his eyes. Zong Shou confirmed that the formation was flawless as he sat down and waited quietly.

Just a few moments later, a blinding white light shot down like a spear.

It was shocking and Zong Shou could sense the bodies of all beings bow down. Those Low-Grade Beasts trembled.

“This is the lightning tribulation?”

Zong Shou looked up in shock. He too had been through this in his past life, but that was in the game and it didn’t count. This was the first time he witnessed it.

He would face the tribulation 1-2 months late so he would need to pay attention.

The white glow was as fast as lightning. However, Zong Shou knew that it was different from lightning. Within it were laws similar to chains, filled with the power of the Grand Path, orderly but impulsive, able to explode out at any moment.

It was extremely quick, instantly piercing the roof of the hall, stabbing down.

Little Gold finally opened its eye. Although its eye was a human’s who knew if it was able to see anything?

It then jumped out, a long sword appearing from its right hand, similar to that of the Nameless Sword.

It then slashed, a Dragon Shadow roared from behind it.

“Nine Dragon Shadow Sword?”

Zong Shou was shocked. Little Gold had followed him for many years, including when he used the Book of Eon to practice for 10 years. Apart from Xiaori playing with it, he didn’t know what it was doing daily.

Zong Shou had no idea when this fellow had acquired such ability.

This sword was equipped with the form and the aura. It actually had Martial Path Sense. Although it wasn’t as strong as him, it reached the top of the sense level, close to the Soul Realm.

The Sword Light slashed on the white glow, just stopping a moment before it was broken.

Following this, numerous lightning bolts struck down and were broken by the Sword Light.

When the fifth one landed, Little Gold couldn’t take it, but it still didn’t change to another form.

It formed a seal, a Lightning Wings stretched out, spreading 10,000 feet, a purple and red color.

Then, there were blazing flames spreading out from the two tips, causing the Lightning Wings to turn black.

With a wave of the Wings, the white glow which was ten times thicker, was destroyed.

“Oh? Lightning Phoenix Purple Lightning, Sky Burning Flame. This is Lightning Blaze Thousand Flash…”

Zong Shou’s mouth opened wide, he was totally lost.

This Little Gold actually learned his top ability to 60%!

He frowned and curiously looked into the sky.

Normal Beasts were hit with three at most. The God Beasts faced five. However, this was already the seventh…

Another white glow slashed down. Little Gold stood in the air and slashed out once more.

The Sword Light instantly flashed and the white glow dissipated.

“Spacetime, Cause and Effect…”

Zong Shou was totally numb now. He knew that at that moment Little Gold had slashed out seven swords to smash the white glow.

It used the power of Spacetime and Cause and Effect. Although it was only 20% of him, it was enough!

“No wonder the books said Wanxiang was the beast every other beast was jealous of…”

No wonder it used a human form. This was its strongest form.

With that sword slashing out, its body was not perfectly fine. Its limbs and a portion of its body was on the verge of breaking down.

The ninth lightning had already appeared.

At this moment, Little Gold was feeling helpless, spreading thoughts of despair into Zong Shou’s soul.

Zong Shou sighed. It wasn’t that Little Gold wasn’t strong, but that this tribulation really wanted to wipe it out.

Just as he was about to help Little Gold, their souls suddenly experienced an explosion.

A suction force pulled both their souls closer. Wave like information injected into each other.

Little Gold’s eyes lit up, one again slashing forward.

The entire stone hall instantly dimmed at that moment.

Zong Shou was startled and dazed. This sword was his One Origin Black Sword…
