Chapter 469: 5 spirit sword technique

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

He looked at his soul, only to see that his soul ocean whirlpool was different from a year ago.

That whirlpool was still there, but above it, there was one more spinning the other way. One swallowing one spitting, each taking up talk of the soul.

However, the amount of heaven and earth’s spiritual energy he swallowed was not less by much, and it was purer. This formed a cycle, causing Zong Shou to always be filled up with spiritual energy. It continuous swallowed and spat out, releasing the impurities. Often after a few rounds of purification, the spiritual energy would become extremely pure.

In the center was still the true spiritual talisman core. A full 18 true spiritual talismans revolved around the center of the whirlpool.

“Metal, wood, water, fire, terra, thunderclap, lightning, wind, luck, stack, swallow, purify, illusion, yin, yang, heaven, earth, eon…”

The full 18 were nested in his soul. In this year and a half, every 1-2 months, he would be able to form a true spiritual talisman. However, the final word was the toughest.

Zong Shou wanted to form a “Ming” word which was a Styx river death sword he was good at in the last life. He had a great understanding of it. But what was weird was that although he grasped half of the mysteries behind it, he failed to form it.

Like the last true spiritual talisman, the spot was already occupied. Then, Zong Shou tried several others but they were all useless.

Half a month ago, he had an idea and tried to form the eon word.

For some reason, this one was easily completed. The entire process exceeded his expectations. With just a thought, an eon true spiritual talisman just appeared in his soul.

Beneath the true spiritual talisman, the structure of it and its mysteries were something Zong Shou knew nothing about.

Half a month have passed and this true spiritual talisman had become the core of all the rest.

In an uncontrolled manner, it stretched out densely packed runes to join with other talismans to direct how the others rotated and worked.

Opposite it was the heaven and earth true spiritual talismans. That was because apart from representing heaven and earth, they were also similar to the universe word, meaning space.

Above and below were the yin and yang talismans which had this eon word as their core too.

Apart from the 5 of them, there was metal, wood, water, fire, and terra. As for the lightning and thunderclap words, they were further away.

It was yin yang, universe and eon stretched out to the 5 elements. With heaven and earth, then there was lightning and thunder, noise, stack and swallowing, etc phenomenons.

The entire soul was in an orderly manner. That 9 layer pagoda seemed to suck out most of the power from the soul ocean whirlpool to help repair his soul cracks.

“Eon, which represented the past to the future, this talisman really can about mysteriously. Is the blue light in my soul core the book of eon extreme life? In the last life, I snatched it and brought it into Zong Shou’s soul?”

“However, when I snatched the book it was obviously in the virtual world! Could this book be formed from numbers? How weird, or is it the specialty that I brought from the future due to my soul passing through time?”

With many thoughts, unable to get an answer, Zong Shou signed. However, due to this, his preparations to advance to day wandering realm was complete.

His soul ocean already felt a little full and there was no more space to form other true spiritual talismans.

Even at this moment, as long as Zong Shou didn’t restrict his soul power—just allowing it to sense the heaven and earth—in 15 minutes, he could enter the day wandering realm!

However, he still did a hand sign, trying his best to control it. Many blood patterns appeared on his skin, forming many mysteries marks and runes. Finally, a seal word gathered at the center of his brows.

All the essence of the lightning. Phoenix was mostly absorbed by Zong Shou. Now his true qi cultivation was at the peak of Xuanwu ancestor. The 9 chakra meridians of his body had merged with 2 spiritual veins.

His true qi was filled and vast, chasing experts of grade 7. His physical body had the ganli purple gold lotus and the jade marrow as the foundation. He also had the dragon essence strengthening him at every moment. His external cultivation was top class. At this moment, he already had steel tendons and iron bones. His hands alone could take a grade 6 spiritual weapon head-on and not be injured.

That day in the evil spirit most, he sliced 2 grade 8 yin flood dragons and had no injuries to his body because of that.

The remaining lightning Phoenix essence on the outer layer of his body already had a really small effect. Zong Shou decided to use it to seal his soul power.

When that seal word appeared, all the red patterns all disappeared.

The vast spiritual energy in the room also disappeared in an instance.

Zone Shou opened his eyes and swept outside of the window. Only to see a white shadow dancing with the sword. She was petite, and the sword light was also beautiful and nimble, but sometimes it was as heavy as a mountain. Sometimes sharp soft as water, and sometimes invasive like fire.

It was Chuxue. At this moment, she had ten over talismans pasted on her body. Looking closely, 8 of them were heavy earth talismans used to add weight. The other 4 were seal words.

It sealed up most of her true Qi and internal energy. She followed the sword pattern, training each stroke and move.

She followed Zong Shou’s instructions diligently and didn’t change anything. However, she naturally gave off spiritual energy that no one around had.

Around her, 5 spirit beasts were looking on. A stone qilin, a red fire golden Phoenix, a black qilin beast, a xuanming turtle and a chill gold tiger.

Apart from the chill tiger, which was mature, the other 4 were all babies. In the middle of their brows, there was a mysterious and exquisite mark that gave off a special soul power fluctuation that connected them.

The stone qilin was the main one. If one looked carefully, one could notice that the runes all formed a complete spiritual formation. After being separated they were still closely connected. It caused these 5 spirit beasts to be in between natural protector beasts and normal protector beasts.

A year ago, when the formation was first formed, Chuxue was unable to suppress it. In these 1.5 years, she used the 5 spirits to sense the laws of heaven and earth, understanding their special powers. In a short few months, she formed 12 true spiritual talismans, easy without any difficulty, making one feel envious.

Although she relied on external help, in the end, she was like him and stepped into the peak of the Return to the Sun realm.

She could finally use these 5 spirit beasts as arms of hers.

At this moment, she was training the 5 spirit sword that Zong Shou thought her. Dense sweat flowed down her forehead.

The 8 heavy earth talismans on her were like 1.8 million kilograms of weight. She was unable to use true qi and internal energy and could only resist with her physical body.

Her actions, however, didn’t go out of shape at all. She had adapted, and she was also really family to the 5 spirit sword.

The 5 spirit beasts on the side were either lying down or standing still, all looking bored. Only when her sword stance reached the part related to them did a bright glow appear in their eyes, their aura linking up.

Zong Shou gave out a satisfied smile. As long as it wasn’t spiritual training Chuxue wouldn’t be lazy.

Although these 5 spirit sword technique was the most basic part, normal people who weren’t talented would find it tough to do one stance. At this moment Chuxue had already merged with the sword. 5 times of true spirit sword intent was already grasped by her.

Slowly, her sword stance changed. It became random. However, the soul power in her body was used, wrapping around the sword. Using the sword pattern to try to forcefully merge soul power and true Qi. However, it was useless as it clashed intensely.

Her face turned white as she had suffered from the recoil damage.

“Why is Chuxue still training this sword technique?”

Zong Shou’s eyes were filled with helplessness. This was a sword technique he had created when they just entered the vast habitat. He tried to let Chuxue merge spirit with martial arts.

However, after 2 years, he had already given up. However, Chuxue persisted, diligently training it even if she didn’t see any hope.

Even if Zong Shou specially instructed him and she agreed, she would still secretly train it.

She tried again and again to cause true Qi and soul power to merge.

“Merging spirit and martial arts before the celestial realm is all up to fate, it happens based on the situation. To force it will instead make one stray further away from it…”

Thinking about it, Chuxue was even more stubborn than him.

He saw the hole of the black and white holes, which was why he didn’t listen to the advice of Hanfang and persisted on the path of dharma.

Just because of one sentence from him Chuxue went all out on this path. She didn’t care at all, even if Zong Shou’s instructions were the wrong ones.

Thinking about it, Zong Shou shook his head. He thought to himself: forget it, anyway it isn’t much of a problem.

If she continues to train, at most she would be unable to merge the two before the celestial realm.

Even he didn’t have hope about it. Naturally, Chuxue had even less of a chance. Speaking of which, there weren’t many losses.

Reaching out, 2 dragon eye sized pearls flew out from his heaven and earth bag, hanging in front of him.

This was the blazing glass pearl and the extreme dark chill energy pearl. These 2 jewels.

At the start, they were fist-sized, but now, they were only the size of dragon eyes.

The red-colored blazing glass pearl had turned white whilst the extreme dark chill energy pearl turned even darker.

When the 2 pearls appeared, the entire room was split into half. Half was piercing bright whilst the other side was dark.

Half was hot as a flame whilst the other half was like being within the north pole ice plains.

It pulled at Zong Shou’s ocean causing his spiritual energy to become restless.

Zong Shou was expressionless. 2 drops of essence blood dripping from his fingertips onto the 2 pearls. Following which he made a hand sign and shot 2 talismans in.

Since he got these 2 pearls Zong Shou had never stopped to change and refine these 2 pearls.
