Chapter 479 - Huge Regret
At the same time in the building, Hanfang stood up and took a step forward to beyond the fence. His hands were slightly trembling. After a long while, he sighed.
“This brat has the combat martial body?”
Zong Shou smiled as he sat on the rocking chair, continue to leisurely shake.
“More or less! I found out 3 years ago. Unfortunately, I am useless and don’t know how to teach her. Till today, she is only at the middle stage. Hehe! That day I told you that you would regret…”
“Scoff! Cultivators like me focus on a round and clear dao heart, having no regrets at all. Since I have already missed out on it, then there is nothing to be regretful about…”
Although he said that, his tone was that of indifference like he had broken away from his feelings. However, in his stomach, he was filled with huge regret. He never felt his heart hurt so bad.
In this life, he had done numerous stupid things, but none of it could compete with that of today.
Spirit trained tiger bones and dual cultivator. Within the common people path palace, it could only be considered a little above average.
Even if she merged spirit and martial arts, it could only cause qi to be much stronger than people of stronger grade and could fight people above her grade.
However, without enough martial path and spiritual cultivation talent, she would just have more strength than others–like a dumb giant holding a giant hammer but not knowing how to use it. If one thought about it, one wouldn’t feel much fear.
However, at this moment, this combat martial body caused Chuxue to have the ability to go up against sword prince Jueyu. Her strong fighting intuition could cause her to go up against his sword technique even if she doesn’t grasp sword theories.
These 5 spirit beasts helped to make up for her last shortfall. After grasping spiritual cultivation, she was not suppressed.
Zong Shou scoffed coldly, thinking to himself: Continue acting! Continue acting! However, thinking about it he decided not to continue provoking the old man.
Taking the opportunity that senior brother Hanfang didn’t notice, he secretly kept 3 of the spiritual fruits on the table into his sleeves.
Such a good thing. He could let Ruoshui and Chuxue try it. Oh! As for Zong Yuan, he would just bring one for him.
Then, he thought about himself needing to reward her with something on her return? So he took another 2 more.
There were just 8 of these red jade spirit containing fruits. At this moment only 2 remained in the tray.
Zong Shou turned his eyes, deciding to go all the way and place all the spirit fruits into his heaven and earth bag. He even hid that bottle of hundred spirit nectar in too.
At that moment Hanfang came back to his senses. His face filled with enlightenment, “How exquisite! Using the qilin as the foundation to carry the soul power consumption of the other 4 protector beasts. 5 spirit beasts compatible with the 5 elements in full cohesion, making them close to natural protector beasts. Not only could they protect her, but they can also help her comprehend heaven and earth, the mysteries of spiritual cultivation to grasp god beast sword intent. Then, her spiritual cultivation would have no more obstacles.”
As he said that, Hanfang turned his head. His eyes saw that empty tray right away and that bottle of a hundred spirit nectar that had disappeared.
The corner of his eyes slightly twitched as he scolded that little brat. However, he acted like he didn’t see it, and only his voice became cold.
“I am only curious about how you managed to do that?”
Zong Shou smiled and drew in the air using his finger. There was a mark that was formed from soul power which appeared in front of him. It was the shape of a spiritual formation.
Although it was a rough diagram, a rough structure, Hanfang’s eyes lit up, “So that is it!”
This spiritual formation invented by the younger generation wasn’t much to him. He didn’t find it profound.
What it lacked was just a thin layer which when solved would be clear to see.
His first thought was that if their common people path disciples could use a similar formation to recruit protector beasts, wouldn’t their strength greatly increase?
Then, he felt helpless. 5 god beast subspecies grade spiritual beasts was not something everyone could obtain. If they were normal beasts, then the effects would greatly decrease and it wouldn’t have many benefits.
The ones who could receive the most benefits would only be the real core of the sect.
However, even if the mosquito was small, it was still a piece of meat.
Hanfang smiled, “If you are willing to give this technique to the sect, I can give you 300 thousand merit points!”
Then he recalled that this spiritual formation came from Zong Shou’s hand. Be it within the cloud world or other worlds, there weren’t similar spells.
Did this fellow create this by himself? Thinking about his age, that was a little unheard of.
Zong Shou didn’t commit, laughing, “I can’t do 300 thousand, at least 2 million! If 5 spirits can’t work, then 4 divisions. If you can’t find that then 3 powers. If not then 2 extremes. Only the price would be a little larger…”
Hanfang scoffed coldly. This fellow asked for a lot. The doubt in his heart was unlocked. He thought to himself that no matter how talented Zong Shou was, he couldn’t have perfected the art to such a level in such a short time.
It was most probably an ancient secret technique he got from somewhere by luck.
He was lazy to bother with Zong Shou, looking down below with deep focus. His heart was feeling a pulling pain, regret, and head mixing.
Whilst they were speaking, Chuxue had already stabbed out ten over swords. Every one of them forced Jueyu to retreat in a bad state.
The distance was slowly increasing, 100 feet, 110 feet, 120 feet…
The silence that had lasted for a full 8 minutes was slowly broken. Boisterous discussion sounds once again rose.
“…This is already the 29th sword! Initial grade 7 realm and she was able to force sword prince Jueyu to such a level. 29 swords to force him back by 3170 feet. If this is said out who would believe it?”
“Apart from Tanqiu, who knew that common people path had such a person. Spirit and martial arts merging, exquisite sword technique. What a total surprise…”
“This girl is really surprising. In the past, there was Shui Lingbo and Fangwen, now there is Tanqiu and Xuechu. The common people path wouldn’t need to be afraid of having no one to inherit the throne for the next ten thousand years.”
“What I am feeling weird about is why her sword path isn’t taking the initiative but it is changing according to the situation…”
All the common people path disciples were so excited that their faces turned red. The depressed looks on their faces had all faded.
“Within my common people path, there is such a person?”
“As expected from someone who the sect made an exception to accept as a 3rd generation disciple, she is much stronger than us!”
“Just now I was finding it so weird why the sect would arrange this Chuxue as the last. It is just that we are too shallow. The palace head must have known that this 3rd generation great senior master was at the brink of breaking through. That she was extremely strong, spirit and martial arts merging into one. So why couldn’t she fight this Jueyu? She is indeed much better than Yuanfei and those few pieces of trash! Grade 7 peak but not even managing to take a single sword…”
“This sword prince Jueyu is arrogant! Did he think that our common people path had no one?”
“To be able to use initial grade 7 strength to force him to such a stage. Even if she loses, she should feel honorable!”
“It is still the palace head and the elders that are smart. Our common people path have many talents recently!”,
When Fangwen heard those words, he was feeling a little bit guilty, sweating out cold sweat.
Suggesting for Chuxue to fight had nothing to do with him. It was all that person who had risen to the 16th spot in the mysterious life golden book.
He didn’t expect such a situation to happen, and he was ashamed, ashamed…
The few common people path elders all had weird expressions on their faces, looking slightly awkward. However, they were much more experienced than Fangwen and their faces were much thicker. They acted like nothing had happened, smiling like they were enjoying the glory of their disciple–like they forgot that not long ago they were blaming one another in the palace main hall.
The tone of the interactions between them had changed.
“Senior master Zong’s taste is really good! I knew that he wouldn’t randomly do things, he had to have his reasoning!”
“When I saw this Xue’er I knew she had great spiritual energy, so intelligent she appeared dumb, her sword was most probably exquisite. She also had 2 types of talismans on her and was hardworking. Now it seems like it was like I had expected…”
“So senior brother Li had expected it? Smart people think alike! This time we can finally answer to the sect.”
Fangwen couldn’t help but scold out in his hearts. Could his few senior brothers and junior nephews be any more shameless?
At this moment he also felt that Chuxue’s sword was abnormal. She wasn’t taking the initiative, relying on changing her sword trajectory to suppress Jueyu.
However, no matter how he thought about it he couldn’t get an answer.
Coincidentally there was an exclamation that rose and shocked the entire place.
“Palace head Fangwen, does your disciple have the legendary combat martial body?”
When those few words entered his ears, he felt his eardrums shake, like he had become completely sober. All of his questions were finally answered.
Why didn’t he think about that? Weren’t such signs the symbol of a combat martial body?
Looking out, only to see that the person who asked was knife lord Li Wuhui. Fangwen’s lips rose following which he shook his head and smiled in an indiscernible manner.
“I can’t say, I can’t say!”
He hadn’t confirmed the matter and if he admitted it and it turned out wrong, wouldn’t it be a huge loss of his face? At this moment he could only act in a high and mighty manner.
Fangwen avoided the question but the people below all treated it like he had half admitted it.
The buzz once again went silent. Everyone exchanged glances with one another, their shock was far from what words could describe.
Combat martial body! In legends, they’re said to have shocking intuition, born to fight. Even if they didn’t learn martial path theories they could also climb to peak martial ancestor…
It was said that this peak intuition, apart from people whose martial path had broken through the god realm level of secrets. If not, one wouldn’t be able to compare to it.
Chuxue, apart from merging spirit with martial arts, had such a special ability!
At this moment, Yuanfei’s face was ashen white, filling his head turn numb.
Before this, he only felt embarrassed that the dumb brat he looked down on could suppress Jueyu with her combat strength.
Only now did he realize what kind of person he had offended.
…Spirit and martial arts merging, combat martial body!
No matter how the sect treated everyone fairly. If the sect is prosperous, the future resources would also suitably lean towards this girl and she would be taken good care of.
It seemed like this Chuxue was only a maid-servant of Tanqiu?
