Divine Brilliance

Chapter 935: Saint Realm Celestial Talisman

The sun in the sky was blazing and scorching the ground.

This was within the Nether Jail, which was originally covered in Death Energy and a thick Yin atmosphere.

Such a bright atmosphere should have never happened.

However, a few days ago after he fell unconscious, the Death Energy within the Jail began to dissipate.

There was a sun in the sky once again.

Zong Shou sat under the tree but he was far from the woman, a least 1,000 feet away.

For some reason, when he was next to her, he would have an urge to protect her. That aura was something he felt close to.

It made him feel ashamed like he was a kid that hadn’t grown up.

He thought to himself how good it would be if she was his mother?

Hearing her words, her husband and son were separated from her and were also in the Cloud World. One day, if he left this jail, he would help her search for them.

A weird feeling rose up in him, Cloud World? Husband and son?

Wasn’t that just like his situation? His mother Lu Hanyan was also trapped here.

He didn’t think much about it and felt that his brain had a barrier which prevented him from thinking deeper into it.

He didn’t have any other thoughts and a buzzing sound could be heard around him.

42 Imperial Dao Dragon Tooth Swords gave out an explosive ring.

8 days had passed since his eye mutation and he grasped the Intermediate Spirit Realm Return to One Sword Intent.

From then on, he felt that his Sky Burning Flame had changed.

It became purer and the flame power increased. It was much simpler when he refined the Dragon Tooth Swords.

He still needed much time to refine God Realm Instant Space Dragon Teeth.

As for those below God Realm, he would be able to complete in a day. He was able to use his Spiritual Sense as a sword to carve restrictions into it.

His carving skills were improving. Recently, he became more and more familiar and used to it.

Apart from the 42 swords, 81 Star Dao Seeds floated around him.

There wasn’t a large increase in number, but if one looked closely, the arrangements of the Dragon Pellets were no different from the stars. Each position had its relative Star.

This was something Zong Shou spent many days to barely be able to achieve.

The first thing he felt after restructuring this Void Space Dharma was relaxation.

The Instant Space Dao Seeds each having a related star meant that they had their own Soul Power rotation method. There was no need to spend much effort to control and adjust them.

Every day, after he turned it from real to illusionary and instantiated it outside of his body, he would obtain Star Power from the stars to strengthen and purify the Dragon Dao Seed.

Who knows how efforts it saved Zong Shou in refining?

He didn’t worry about all this, what he cared about most was the harmony of the Star Dao Seeds.

If they didn’t merge and form a combined strength, then what was the use of more of them?

Only when the 5 fingers were clenched together when punching could one feel pain.

Currently, Zong Shou had formed many seals and was only slightly adjusting these 81 Stars.

The Space Dharma in his Soul Ocean only had a rough outline.

To perfect it, he needed to truly stack onto the real galaxy. This was not something that could be done in 10 days.

It might take thousands and even ten thousand years, even up until the time he entered True Realm.

At that time, he would be the True form of the Galaxy!

Apart from that was the Sword Formation. He made it such that the Imperial Dao Dragon Tooth Swords and the Three Thousand Star Falling could complement one another. At the crucial moment, he would be able to merge these two abilities.

The Sword Artifacts rang and the stars shone.

Zong Shou knew that it was completed and it was a sign of them fitting with one another. The connection between the two was so close that they couldn’t be separated.

Although the change was small, their strength increased significantly!

He looked coldly at the black mist before he started to look into his body.

He adjusted his breathing for a day and the injuries from last night had healed. His flesh, blood and bones were all as good as new.

During these 8 days, he would try to charge in to fight with Jueyan’s Essence blood body.

Apart from the second day, when he comprehended the Return to One Sword Intent and nearly stepped in, Zong Shou was badly defeated in the next few days.

Luckily, each day he saw much improvement. His Return to One Sword was becoming more stable but he still had no way to fight back.

Although he was defeated, he wasn’t dejected.

Today was the last time!

This was his last chance of the 10-day deadline that Jueyan had give him.

He had been through a lot in the past two years and had learned that sometimes if he wanted something to succeed quickly, it wouldn’t just happen. Zong Shou wasn’t anxious at all. He slowly adjusted his body to remove every single reason that could cause his defeat.

“These injuries really healed so quickly…”

A look of shock appeared in Zong Shou’s eyes. Each time he went unconscious, the lady below whose name he didn’t know, would use the Adversity Crossing Meridian Leading Technique on him, using needles to perform acupuncture on him and adjust his meridians.

Often, when he woke up his blocked meridians would be mostly freed up.

However, it was impossible that the woman’s power was what was continuously making his injuries heal up within a day…

It was the same each day for the 10 days. It was either an amazing treasure or the most top grade healing pill.

His physical body and soul didn’t feel weak after the injury, instead, he felt stronger after each day. He was a full 15% stronger than when he arrived in the Nine Extreme Death Jail.

Such a treasure not only helped him heal his injuries but also helped to train his body.

From what this woman said, he could infer that the reason why his injuries healed so quickly was due to something else.

But what was it?

Zong Shou had many doubts in his heart but then he shook his head. No matter what goal that person had, it had nothing to do with him.

The only thing he had to think about was how to step into that Abyss Gate.

He didn’t need to worry about anything else.

The Illusionary Heart Mirror shone forward and he heard the woman’s voice, “You have woken up?”

Zong Shou acknowledged, the mirror light flowing and shining beneath the monster tree.

When the Illusionary Heart Mirror shone, it reflected her appearance all the way into the depths of his heart.

A melancholic feeling suddenly rose up in his heart and he felt unwilling to leave.

He didn’t show it on his face as he nodded slightly, “Thank you senior for your care these few days, Zong Shou is really grateful. If I am able to live, I will pay you back for your kindness!”

Lu Hanyan shook her head and smiled, why did he call her senior once more?

She helped him heal as she liked this kid and made her think of her own child. It wasn’t that she wanted him to repay her kindness.

Right as she wanted to say something to correct him, her expression changed. She could hear the determination in Zong Shou’s tone.

“You are still going to try? Do you have confidence this time?”

Thinking back to how Jueyan only gave her 10 drops of Jade Bone Spirit Returning Marrow, he felt his heart become cold.

“That person is a Saint Venerable, how can I have any confidence? But I have to fight and I have to go all out!”

Zong Shou shook his head. He already intended to die, if he couldn’t charge into the Abyss Gate, then at most, he would just die in the black mist.

Today was the final deadline and if he missed today, then it would be tough to know what Jueyan would do to him.

Zong Shou had never given up after a setback! However, this was the only time when failure was not accepted.

“Can you not go?”

When Lu Hanyan said those words, she saw Zong Shou’s face was ice cold and there was no change in expression.

While feeling disappointed, she felt pain in her chest for some reason. She was shocked…

She couldn’t bear to!

When they first met, she felt that this teen and her had a deep connection.

They spent 10 days together and she helped heal him every day. Looking at his every action, focused on studying his sword techniques, she felt satisfied for some reason. It was as if this kid was her own child.

Sometimes, she would even secretly hope for the kid to fail to pass through the Abyss Gate, so that he could stay to accompany her.

She didn’t find anything wrong with such words at first, but now when she heard that he was about to leave, the feeling of worry and sadness struck her entire body.

She kept silent for a moment and then laughed self-mockingly. He wasn’t her child, so why would she stop him?

Moreover, this kid had already made up his mind and wouldn’t listen to her.

She had just met this teen and they weren’t related in any way, so what right did she have to stop him?

She thought about it for a moment and she took out 3 Purple Talismans from her sleeves. She used Soul Power to carry them to Zong Shou’s face.

“These 3 Talismans are personally drawn by the current Sky Burning Saint Emperor with his Essence Blood and they are really strong. Maybe they will be able to help you.”

Zong Shou was stunned, shining using the Illusionary Heart Mirror. He was completely surprised.

He felt that the Spiritual Light was hidden within, containing a special glow and a dangerous aura.

The Talisman looked really simple, the most simple but exquisite structure he had ever seen in his life. There was nothing excessive at all.

This was a true Top-Grade Celestial Talisman!

Since it was made with the Essence Blood of a Saint Realm Expert, then the strength of this Talisman could be compared to an all-out attack from the Sky Burning Saint Emperor!

He frowned and instinctively wanted to reject. Lu Hanyan saw through his thoughts and said, “Since I can take out such talismans, then how would I lack other defensive and protection measures? Just take them, it is okay…”

3 Celestial Talismans, they were given to her 20 years ago by her grandfather, personally made for her in case she faced any accidents in the jail.

However, at that point in time, he was really disappointed in her.

Apart from that, there wasn’t anything more.

She wasn’t planning on escaping her sentence, she would just wait until 40 years were up and for her sentence to be over.

At this moment, there was no point in her keeping these talismans, so why not give them to the teen.

Zong Shou didn’t fully believe her as he looked at the monster tree.

Thinking back to the past 10 days when his injuries healed up, he decided not to reject her and just kept the 3 Talismans.

“Since that is the case, then I am filled with gratitude!”

He wasn’t planning to use them. Although Jueyan said that he just needed to step in and use all methods, if he used external strength he didn’t know what the Saint Venerable would think about him.

Which was why he didn’t even release his Protector Beasts, much less use this Celestial Talisman.

But this Talisman represented this woman’s kindness to him…

He took in a deep breath, blood boiling all over his body and Sword Intent rose up.

Time was of the essence and he couldn’t waste any more of it.

“Senior, please take care!”

The moment he said this, Zong Shou moved decisively and barged right into the black mist once again.
