869 Tianyan Manor Head

All the women in Cangling World wouldn't suffer the pain of losing their children because of the Xiantian Fire Essence Marrow?

Zong Shou was silent, in the end, he was still dragged into this matter.

Forget it, he used the Wish Power of this world to train his body so more or less he was wrapped up in a little of the Cause and Effect of this place.

He would do something for them as sort of a compensation. He could also fulfill Jingyin's wish to pay her back for saving his life.

He was deep in thought as he looked toward that convent at the foot of the mountain.

Those pregnant women seemed to be sent in batches. There were indeed a portion who would give birth during these few days.

In the past, he didn't notice it, however, now when he looked closely he realized that there was something a little wrong with the situation. 

A secret technique was indeed cast in their bodies, causing the babies to pillage the life force of their mother's body when they grew. When they were given birth, not only would they be really strong and healthy, the Xiantian Fire Essence Marrow would also become exceptionally pure.

Although this technique was strong, there was one area that was inappropriate.

Once one didn't control it correctly, the mother's body wouldn't be able to take it and would die from weakness.

This was probably the reason why Tianyan Manor would send these pregnant women to Xiaoyue to take care.

"Even those beasts and animals wouldn't do such cruel things…"

Laughing coldly, Zong Shou retracted his gaze. Then, he turned his wheelchair and returned to the only small hut on the cliff.

"I will go into seclusion for 10 days, don't disturb me!"

Not bothering about the shocked gazes of Xiaoyue and Jingyin, Zong Shou waved his sleeves. A few Mind Stones scattered everywhere and totally cut off this thatched house from the outside world. It totally blocked out Xiaoyue's gaze and Spiritual Sense from within.

With a thought, a full 37 Imperial Dao Dragon Tooth Flying Swords appeared in front of him.

Zong Shou focused right in the middle at that White Sword which was giving off a shining star light.

This was the first Celestial Artifact Sword which he crafted while referencing the diagram of the formation.

Actually, strictly speaking it couldn't be considered a Celestial Artifact. This sword had to rely on this formation to start running and couldn't be used alone.

This was why, in a short few days, Zong Shou was able to craft it.

In his heart, he still felt really excited. The moment this sword was formed, his Sword Formation had its true core.

The truth was just that. Once this sword was merged into the formation, this Sword Formation changed.

The eight swords from before allowed the formation to have its skeleton so it could hold up the flesh and blood.

Although it wasn't a Sword Spirit, it felt even stronger than that!　　

"The strength of which doubled! Just this Sword Formation alone, without me controlling it, will have close to no opponents among the Celestial Realm…"

Zong Shou still didn't have a chance to study this formation, however, he could roughly guess and comprehend that once 4 similar grade swords were added in, there might be a complete Artifact Spirit that would be born. 

No, it isn't born but revived! The 10 Extreme Imperial Dao Destruction Sword Formation Soul in the ancient times would rely on this to appear in the world again. What an exquisite Sword Formation…

Zong Shou sucked in a cold breath, a look of disbelief appearing in his eyes.

If he had not confirmed that even if this Artifact Soul revived that it would be connected to his mind and not that ancient person, he would have most probably given up on the Sword Formation.

However, if that was the case, he might be able to find the other swords in the ancient complete formation…

If he used special methods and materials to bind to his blood, the effects would be no weaker than the swords he crafted himself.

Although it was really complicated and required many materials, it was a little stronger than if he crafted one himself.

Then, he shook his head. This matter was still a long distance away from him.

If I am able to complete this Sword Formation, who knows if I'll be able to control the Common People's Sword Formation that Xi Zi sealed before he fell…

Zong Shou called out the Star Dao Seeds within the Void Space in his heart. At this moment, there were 64 of them which rotated around him.

He then directly injected a huge amount of Spiritual Energy stored in the many Celestial Stones into the Book of Eon Extreme Life.

At this moment, his True Qi and Soul Power weren't able to be used. Naturally, he couldn't split his mind to craft swords.

What he was going to do was to modify the Sword Formation within these 10 days which was around 100 accelerated days, such that it would be more perfect and he would be able to have more control of it.

Next, would be to add another 8 Star Dao Seeds within these 100 days to reach the Evil Earth number of 72.

At that time, his foundations would be really firm.

Although he wouldn't be able to step into Late Celestial Realm like he did after he finished the Heaven Realm tribulation, no one would be his opponent within the Celestial Realm…

He was filled with anticipation regarding his battle against Lu Wushuang.

"After being chased for so many months, I need to return all this anger and hatred to vent my frustration…"

With a thought, Zong Shou looked back into his sleeves with a little shock.

"Your injuries have recovered? So quick!"

His hands trembled and a blue light flew out of his sleeves. It was the Blue Fire Xuan Turtle who had suffered light injuries when blocking Lu Wushuang's spear head-on. Its body was shrunk into a small turtle, gleefully flying around in front of his face.

"To be able to grow big and small, interpret the laws of Heaven and Earth, so you advanced?"

Zong Shou knocked onto its shell and he understood.

This fellow was already at the Intermediate Celestial Realm. He was chased by Lu Wushuang for so long and this fellow had fought him many times.

It seemed to have comprehended something and actually managed to charge into the Intermediate Celestial Realm.

Apart from that, the Wish Power in its body had also disappeared.

It had probably digested it to strengthen its body.

As for that shell, it was also glowing. This God Realm Xuanwu Shell should have been totally refined by it.

This thing could be compared to a Celestial Artifact. In the battle against Lu Wushuang, even if it was stabbed by the spear, it was undamaged at all. However, the body of the Blue Fire Turtle itself was a little weaker and it was slightly injured from the tremors. 　

Zong Shou couldn't help but exclaim in awe. This Turtle was really interesting. It had just advanced a year ago and its cultivation improved once more such that Little Gold and Hanxi didn't catch up to it.

In terms of its true combat strength, it was also decent.

Zong Shou also started to anticipate the other few things sleeping in the Spirit Beast bags.

The Marrow Burning Blood Spirit Technique continued to fill him with pain. A few times, he really wanted to stop resisting and just die. However, it also benefited him greatly…

Using his heart to sense, forgetting about Hanxi that Natural Variant, Little Gold, Hanxi and Lightning Winged Dragon probably gained more than him.

Who knows what level they would grow to when they awaken?

"Just nice, you can help protect me…"

The awakening of the Blue Fire Xuan Turtle made Zong Shou feel more at ease. He directly closed his eyes and entered a meditative state.

With this beast protecting him, even if Lu Wushuang came personally, he wouldn't be able to do anything to him in a short while.

After stepping into the Intermediate Celestial Realm, it was more so!　

※※※※

The so-called Tianyan Manor was built on the highest peak of Cangling World.

It was 73,430 feet high and could allow one to look down on all life. On the peak, a Fire Cloud wrapped around and spread 10,000 miles.

However, when Lu Xichen stepped into the Tianyan Manor, a cold energy surged toward his face. The temperature was adequate and was just nice.

Although the Lu Family people were good at controlling fire, they didn't like staying within flames at every moment.

Without needing anyone to report, he walked in directly. After crossing several courtyards, he came into a garden.

He looked around carefully and then his eyes were fixed in the center of the garden, only to see that two people were sitting opposite one another.

One of them was the Head of the Tianyan Manor, his master Lu Yantian.

The other person also had an important identity. He was one of the 37 Young Masters of the Lu Family, the Sky Burning Celestial Dynasty Grade Three Commander Lu Wushuang.

In terms of identity and status, he was even above Lu Yantian.

There were many people beside who were serving them carefully. 　　

What was the most eye-catching was the lake not far away. A 10,000-foot long, snake-like giant beast which was covered in red scales coiled within the lake.

Although it was a Fire Beast, it seemed to like to stay in the water.

Since Lu Xichen entered, its eyes stared over coldly. That gaze was like it was sizing up its food.

Lu Xichen felt cold sweat trickling down. This was Lu Yantian's Protector Beast, it was called the Shark Snake.

It was a Natural Variant and loved to kill.

Although there was only, it could compare to thousands of Protector Beasts.

It was only Late Celestial Realm but even God Realm Cultivators might not be able to beat it.

At this moment, even when he knew that this beast was controlled by Lu Tianyan and wouldn't do anything to him, he still felt terrified.

"Did you go over to Shuiyue Convent just now?"

A flat tone came from the side of the stone table, causing Lu Xichen to come back to his senses.

"Yes! It was to find Zong Shou. Not long ago, someone saw a white light land near the convent which was why I was suspicious…"

"You went to search for Jingyin right? So many years have passed and you still can't forget her."

Lu Tianyan was 30, wearing a scholar dress and looking really demure.

"You are so devoted and charmed by her to an extent that you disregarded all the rules that I set!"

Lu Xichen felt his chest and back turn wet, deeply bowing, "Xichen has always followed the rules and I don't dare to disobey you."

"If you did, you wouldn't be still alive. I know you love that woman and I want to see you succeed too. However, we need all the matters to end first. Before that, don't do anything funny, do you understand?"

Seeing Lu Xichen bowing in a tamed manner, Lu Tianyan smiled and asked directly, "Since you have already gone, then how is the situation there?"

Hearing these words, Lu Xichen calmed down and bowed once more.

"Monk Xiaoyue's medicine skills seem to have seen great improvement. In this round, those 200 people all look really good…"

Lu Yantian's eyes lit up, he drank all the wine in the cup with his head leaned back.

"What great news!"

Without any instructions, a bunch of servants walked over. The first few each carried a tray beside them. 

There were all naked children on the trays who were in deep sleep, not crying and not making any noise.

Lu Tianyan casually picked one, piercing the brow of one of them.

A moment later, he took out a red liquid and swallowed it.
