Chapter 494 - 60% Profits
Half a month later, a seven star spell altar hung in the air.
Zong Shou was sitting cross legged in the center, using his spiritual sense to observe his body.
Much time had passed since his battle against Jueyu. At this moment, his soul ocean had already stabilized. His energy slowly recovered, and his soul ocean was once again filled up.
However, the current Zong Shou was a little worried.
“Annoyed! This is going to be problematic…”
The reason wasn’t in his soul ocean, but his physical body.
It was because of the black and white holes, which caused the sky burning blood of the Lu family to become a little thicker. Compared to it, the water element was not enough.
Although there was the eight tail sky fox bloodline going up against it, strictly speaking, the sky fox was an illusionary element and wasn’t a true water element bloodline.
Now, it was still okay, and he could rely on his soul power which was on the level of grade 8 experts to suppress it. However, if time passed, it would become a problem.
“It seems like within these 2 months I need to find a spirit realm level water element god beast to completely swallow its life origin…”
He did know a few spirit realm god beasts. For example, that ice hornless dragon in water fairy lake. However, the problem was, he couldn’t defeat it now. If he had no choice, he would have to borrow the help of the sect.
The benefits of having someone to rely on was that if he couldn’t defeat someone, he could ask for help.
A sigh later, Zong Shou opened his eyes. Then, he saw numerous spiritual light shine.
This was the entrance to the world river. His seven star spell altar floated at the edge of it. The entrance of a spiritual river, and was traveling forwards.
A few days ago, who knows what that old man Hanfang was thinking. He suggested sweeping this world river to clear out the beasts nearby the vast habitat.
The spiritual river flowed, traveling within thousands of worlds. However, there were some beasts and evil spirits who would choose a specific region to roam in.
What Hanfang wanted to get rid of were the beasts and evil beings near the common people vast habitat, which threatened their common people path. It was a compulsory mission this year that had to be completed.
This was undeniable. However, the problem was that there were only 160 grade 7 experts in the common people student palace. Grade 6 and below wouldn’t be of much use. Hence, they could only clean up some small fishes and shrimps at the edge such that they had something to cheer for.
Thus, the heavy responsibility of clearing the high-grade beasts laid on him, as the first seat disciple.
Zong Shou opposed, but he, the 16th elder in the mysterious golden life book, along with the help of Hanfang worked together, were forcefully retorted. Who knows which senior was the one who interfered.
He had already locked onto a target, it was Fengtian. His position might not be higher than his but 2 elders working together, their power indeed exceeds him.
Luckily, he wasn’t in this alone. Fangwen, Xuexi and the grade 8 and grade 9 experts who were less than 100 years old were summoned back to suffer along with him.
During these few days, the palace was in an uproar.
At the entrance of the spirit river, there were some grade 6 and grade 7 disciples who walked in and out. When they saw this seven star spell altar, their expressions turned solemn as they moved aside. Be it if their identity was high or low, they all cupped their fists and bowed 35 degrees.
“Greetings first seat!”
“Are you good first seat Tan…”
“Mr first seat, disciple greets you!”
Zong Shou instantly smiled, warmly nodding his head towards the disciples on the sides. He waved his hand as a form of acknowledgment.
This was one of the side effects of his fight with Jueyu. The entire common people’s vast habitat suddenly had great respect towards him.
Every time they met they would treat him respectfully, afraid of being impolite.
Once or twice, it wasn’t much, but along the way, he bumped into 300 people.
His head was a little sore, and his smile was a little stiff. It was as fake as it could get.
“So that is the case! No wonder those top experts in this world who were famous all had a paralyzed face. They were as cold as they got, as cool as they could be, that was the reason…”
Zong Shou sighed.
He thought back to that Jueyu who was someone who loved to speak. However, in the rumors, he was a cold teen who didn’t like to speak to others. Even when others greet him, if he didn’t like it he would act like he didn’t see anything.
The moment the spell altar entered the world river, it headed towards the center portion. At this moment, there were many beasts and evil beings that crazily surged over.
Zong Shou’s brows rose, casually waving his sleeves as 6 more white lights flew out. They were the 6 saint fire silver ants. A year and a half ago, after merging with the ganli purple gold lotus, there was one more gold speck at the center of their brows.
Their combat strength increased by quite a lot, all having comparable to grade 7 strength. Hanxi flew over, hanging beside Zong Shou.
Since he had formed his dharma and it entered grade 7, Hanxi and the lightning winged flood dragon showed signs of breaking through once more.
Especially the latter, who was connected to the heart of Zong Shou. Just using a portion of the comprehension of the heaven path during his breakthrough, he went from the middle of grade 7 to the peak.
It was just a thin layer away from advancing.
Hanxi also gained a lot. This ant queen’s potential was high, shocking him. Originally, half a year ago, it could break through, but Zong Shou forcefully suppressed it which was why it remained at the peak of grade 7.
It was why it was unhappy with him recently.
However, within this half a month, for some reason, Hanxi didn’t dare to exchange glances with him.
Zong Shou couldn’t see that provocative glance from before.
Who knows if this saint fire ant queen really feared him or if it became smart. Beast and evil beings grade 6 and below could be dealt with by the 6 silver ants. As for those of grade 7, 2 working together could do the work.
Occasionally, when they couldn’t handle it Zong Yuan and Ruoshui would attack. With their close to grade 8 combat strength, even some grade 8 beasts had to feel their hatred.
However, when they entered the center portion of the world river, the situation was more and more intense. In the end, the lightning winged flood dragon and Hanxi both had to enter.
Zong Shou was lazy to search for them all over the river, so right from the start, he placed a red colored egg in front of him.
It was the egg of a red fire golden phoenix. He didn’t cover his aura, allowing the spiritual energy fluctuation of the fire phoenix to spread out.
Hence, all the beasts and evil beings within the world river all charged over like moths to a flame.
During these few days of time, Zong Shou was lazy, not being proactive to search. However, his rewards could be said to be the top of the list, far ahead of the next. Even some grade 9 experts were unable to compare to him.
Only Fangwen and Xuexi had hopes of catching up.
At this moment, all the strength that could be sent was in an intense battle. Only Chuxue was sleeping soundly not far away.
7 days ago, when this clearing of beasts begun, Xue’er started to love to sleep. Even in such an environment, she could fall into deep sleep.
Thinking about it, Zong Shou could only attribute it to her being at her growing period.
Speaking of which, Xue’er didn’t grow much taller in these 2 years. However, her chest was much perkier, a half size larger than before.
Glancing at the side, Chuxue who seemed like that of a little cat. Zong Shou couldn’t help but gulp, swallowing a mouth of saliva.
Unknowingly, she had already matured. It was time for him to harvest her…
Just as he was having random thoughts, his mind totally wandering off, 2 people appeared not far away.
They seem to be chased by some fierce beast, looking like they were in a tough situation. However, their bodies were extremely quick, crossing ten thousand feet in an instance.
After the girl in front saw the spell altar, she instantly increased her speed to charge over.
Zong Shou frowned, keeping the fire phoenix egg back into his heaven and earth bag.
Moments later, 2 petite bodies landed on the spell altar.
In front, it was Zhao Yanran, the one behind was Xuan Yunlan. The latter smiled in embarrassment whilst Zhao Yanran had a surprised expression, “What a coincidence. As expected, first seat is here. I nearly thought that we were going to die…”
Zong Shou scolded out to himself. Within the seed and the furnace, there was a mental connection. This definitely wasn’t a coincidence and this woman had intended it.
“Speak, what did you anger this time?”
Zhao Yanran gave an awkward laugh. Then, she took out a few baby beasts from her heaven and earth bag.
They looked like a tiger shape, however, they had dense fur. It was obvious they were just born and unable to open their eyes.
“Grade 5, lion tiger beast? Zhao Yanran you finally have some skill!”
Zong Shou bit his teeth. A grade 5 tiger lion beast, the bloodline of a white tiger, not only was its value high, but it was also a descendant of a king beast. One at least had to be a spirit realm expert to be able to give birth to it.
Even if those grade 9 and above could be handled by the elders of the palace the subjects of the beast king were enough to make one’s hair go numb.
With a thought, Zong Shou made his mind up to not bother, to leave right away. Anyways no one would die. However, these two can forget about keeping these babies, most probably they had to hand it over to the sect.
Zhao Yanran knew Zong Shou’s personality. At this moment, just looking at his eyes, she knew that this Gantian Mountain monster king wanted to abandon her and run away on his own.
…This fellow was just so shameless and heartless!
However, she didn’t panic, rolling her eyes she laughed lightly, “This time I obtained 7 babies apart from that there are other things. I can split you half of the profits!”
As expected Zong Shou’s eyes lit up. He took in a deep breath but shook his head, “Half is too little, at least 80%!”
This time it was Zhao Yanran’s turn to be furious, grinding her teeth, “At most 60%! I still need to split half with Yunlan!”
“Deal!”
Without hesitating, Zong Shou drove this seven star spell altar towards the sky, until a place where the spiritual energy was the thickest.
