Divine Brilliance

The abundance of death energy didn’t mean that life didn’t exist. It was just that it was suppressed.

Xi Zi used this sky altar to collect the Life Essence Energy within the city. After 10,000 years, the life energy within reached a shocking level.

Zong Shou casually reached out and took a jade bottle. The pills within were all Magical Pills, close to Celestial Pills. Xuan Grade pills came in four grades. They could bring out potential and strengthen one’s spiritual sense. They could aid cultivation and also help when one was in despair or at crucial moments.

More importantly, one could use it whether one was dead or alive.

However, there were weird changes within the pills. There were Xiantian treasure patterns within but they were much weaker.

This also caused the effects of the pills to change. Apart from bringing out potential, they could also increase lifespan!

“What is this considered? Xiantian Spiritual Pill?”

Zong Shou was speechless. The pill bottle in his hand could only extend his lifespan by 10 years.

However, there were just too many of them. 300 bottles, around 10,000 pills, along with there were many top Heaven Grade Celestial Pills.

These pills between Xiantian and Houtian weren’t the only ones with lifespan-extending powers. The wine and medicine also had the same ability.

However, among the bottles, Zong Shou didn’t notice anything like the Life Essence Life Creation Pill.

Not only that, but there weren’t any that were used to revive people. Most of the pills could be used by people regardless if they were dead or alive.

It seemed like Xi Zi hadn’t done this on purpose. It was most probably only because he was able to find it in the tomb…

Zong Shou was pretty sure that the cultivators who wanted to come here to search for life-extending pills were going to be disappointed.

“Speaking of which, those pills were mostly hidden in the sub tomb?”

Zong Shou looked at the Afang Palace, deep in thought.

The Qin Emperor probably predicted that those top life-extending pills wouldn’t be able to be stored here, so they placed it in the sub tomb.

Even in 10,000 years, there wouldn’t be any raiders.

However, he probably didn’t expect that just 2,000 years after he died, Great Qin would be wiped out. Even Kunlun Mountain had been sliced.

Although there were many pills in the tripod, the people here were just slightly shocked.

10 years and 20 years of lifespan wasn’t much for them.

It was the treasure within that everyone was really after.

Yuan Wushang took a few looks and said enviously, “Xi Zi definitely collected all the best treasures here.”

Zong Shou had the same thoughts. The few Celestial Treasures here were all the top ones.

Being gathered within for 10,000 years, due to the influence of life Essence power, Xiantian patterns had also formed.

When one controlled the Celestial Treasures, apart from the own ability of the treasure, they could inject life energy to the user to recover injuries.

However, although the few people were tempted, none of them thought about taking it.

Xi Zi was the one who left the treasure and with Lin Xuanxuan and Zong Shou here, it wasn’t their turn to deal with it.

After all, any one of those treasures could be compared to the Sect Protecting Treasure of any sect and faction!

Lin Xuanxuan was very generous and said, “We would need all of you to fight to the death! It is really dangerous and we have to compensate you for it. You all can take some of the items within.”

Yuan Wushang was delighted and didn’t reject it. He took a half step God Weapon Sword. Although it wasn’t the most expensive one, it was what he wanted.

Shen Yuexuan hesitated a little and surprisingly took out a few crafting materials.

Su Xiaoziao took 10% of the life-extending pills into her sleeves.

Lin Xuanxuan couldn’t help but scoff coldly, her brow furrowed. Compared to the treasures, she paid more attention to the pills.

However, Su Xiaoxiao knew her place and the amount she took didn’t touch her bottom line.

When Lin Xuanxuan looked at Chuxue, her eyes were filled with warmth.

“What do you want? Just take it!”

That was her disciple, so naturally, she doted on her. She could take three or five if she wanted.

Chuxue twisted her head and thought about it before shaking it, “Master, Xue’er doesn’t have a use for them! It isn’t as good as that one.”

She looked at Zong Shou in anticipation, “Why don’t you let Senior Brother choose for me…”

Lin Xuanxuan was furious, and instantly gave Zong Shou a sharp stare.

Zong Shou was helpless. He held her cold gaze and took out a few items. Zong Shou scattered the Xiantian Geng Metal Energy and injected the Imperial Celestial Slaying Diagram in. In just a moment, they started to transform.

However, once they all turned to Celestial Slaying Energy, it would take at least half a year.

“Three types of Earth Grade Xiantian Geng Metal Energy actually filled only 70% of the knife energy…”

Zong Shou felt disappointed and then took dozens of drops of jade white liquid over and shot it into the Nine Hole Life Essence Stone.

This was Jade Essence Clear Marrow, it shouldn’t be something that Xi Zi left. It was the purest life energy, formed from 10,000 years of time.

It could refine pills and be used to nurture artifacts. Especially the stone. Once the jade Marrow was dropped in, the stone became more transparent and was brimming with life. It lost a little bit of quality because of Shen Yuexuan, but now it had totally recovered and was much better than before.

The glow it gave off also spread out 10,000 feet.

Lin Xuanxuan looked on and her eyes lit up, “Are you preparing to give this to your Master?”

Zong Shou smiled and didn’t reply. To exchange for this time, he had to get the same value item back for it.

Lin Xuanxuan was the one who was helpless now. There were only a few within that could compare to that and they were things that Zong Shou didn’t need. She said angrily, “To teach your Master forces so much on you! Do you know that my second Sister and your Master Dragon Shadow are planning to let you step into End Realm within 1,000 years and to verify the Dao?”

Zong Shou was stunned and looked over; he didn’t understand what Lin Xuanxuan meant.

Both Lin Xuanshuang or Dragon Shadow warned him. Due to his improvement, his foundations were unstable.

They would rather he proceeded slower than have unstable foundations.

However, why were they so anxious?

To enter End Realm in 1,000 years, wasn’t that a little too quick?

Although Zong Shou himself stepped into Celestial Realm peak in a short 20 years, he thought that he would need at least 2,000 to get to End Realm. He might even need 10,000 years.

Not only did he have to accumulate, but he had to wait; he had to wait for a chance!

“The Dayan number is 49. Remove one. In this world, there should only be 49 End Realms!”

Lin Xuanxuan said leisurely, “However, top talents are different. All laws have loopholes. 120,000 years ago, someone created a Dao Stealing Technique! Either swallowing Xiantian God Treasures or merging Natural God Items into one’s foundations. Or killing Saint Venerables to grab their Dao Foundations, merge Heaven and Earth Laws…”

Zong Shou listened quietly. He was still in a daze. He already knew what Lin Xuanxuan mentioned.

This region could only allow 49 End Realm Saint Venerables to exist. If he wanted to enter, he had to wait for one of their souls to be smashed and a spot to open up.

Naturally, although they had indestructible souls, when the 49 were fully filled they wouldn’t be able to revive. Only when one entered deep sleep could they reappear.

There were roughly 50 known End Realms in this region. Altogether, there were around 100.

At least a half of them stole the Dao. This Dao forming technique wasn’t much different from a true End Realm.

The only difference was that they lacked the ability to enter True Realm.

Lin Xuanxuan continued, “Actually, when Second Sister revived and entered End Realm, she found it weird why there was still an empty spot. However, she just thought that the battle that Xi Zi took place in was too intense and that during the 1,000 years at least 13 died this she didn’t care much. However, after Junior Nephew Wei Xu entered End Realm she noticed that something was wrong. Do you know that your Senior Brother has prepared three Xiantian God Items to try to steal foundations and borrow them to form his Dao?”

Usually, there would be a difference between one who borrowed strength to enter End Realm and one who did so naturally.

However, if the Xiantian God Item or the number of items were plentiful and compatible, then it would be okay.

“Senior Brother Wei Xu, didn’t use it?”

Zong Shou’s brow rose up, understanding roughly what she was getting at.

How was this possible? 10,000 years had past and even if there were so many End Realm, the 49 slots should have been filled.

The only possibility was that there were changes in the world…

“Senior Brother Xiuguan left to check on all this. However, both Dragon Shadow or Senior Sister they feel that it is just a coincidence and wouldn’t last for too long. So, you have to verify the Dao within these 1,000 years!”
