“Is there anything that can raise my combat strength in a short time? Be it pills, external pill, spiritual artifacts. I just need 1 hour…”

Dragon Shadow was originally a little shocked and wanted to try to persuade him. When he heard the last statement, he didn’t make a sound.

He had numerous methods to raise combat strength in a short time. They were all demonic path methods that didn’t bother about foundations.

However, if it was just used for 1 hour then it wouldn’t be much of a border. Dragon Shadow took in a deep breath before he spoke again.

“I do have a method, you just need to awaken that natural protector beast on your arm!”

Zong Shou couldn’t help but curl his lips he knew that? But this lightning winged flood dragon was at its crucial moment and was in deep sleep. The 2 drops of blood the giant dragon left before it left. Without 10 days to half a month, it wouldn’t be able to digest it. If he forcefully awakened it, it would affect the evolution of the beast.

It wasn’t worth him doing that for this Long Ruo.

“It seems like you are unwilling!” Dragon Shadow old man predicted that and broke into a smile, “I have a heaven quality grade 2 external pill here that I forcefully snatched over years early. I remember that at that time the person had already merged 2 heaven veins within. I originally wanted to give you a grade 3 magical artifact but if you want, I can change it to this item…”

Zong Shou instantly hesitated and regretted it a little. A grade 3 magical artifact he could use was naturally much better than an external pill. Even if he couldn’t use it now, but once he reached grade 7 and bonded to it, then he would be invincible against same grade spirit masters.

Dragon Shadow didn’t allow him to hesitate. When his words were said, the space around him shook once more.

A moment later a red and blue dual-colored jade stone appeared in front of him, really eye-catching. Looking out, one felt like its spiritual energy was like a flood, surging unceasingly.

Zong Shou’s eyes shone, grabbing it with a hand. He could sense that not only were there 7 earth veins wrapping around within, but there were also 2 spiritual veins which were 10 times stronger, pretty much taking 70% of the space within.

All the veins inside were one ice and one fire, balancing out one another.

WIthout hesitating Zong Shou injected his true qi in, using his spiritual energy to seal layers of runes and restrictions into the stone.

He didn’t need to completely bind with it, just a short while later he could already use the vast amount of spiritual energy within.

“I can help you digest this item…”

An external force suddenly injected over, in just a moment it caused Zong Shou’s senses towards the external pill to greatly increase.

Dragon Shadow old man then said sincerely, “Although the external pill is strong, it isn’t the correct path. Your cultivation now is too low and your body is weak. Using this item places a huge burden. If you aren’t careful you might harm your meridians. You can’t be tempted by the external strength and forget yourself. However with your sword soul martial path there’s no need to worry. Oh right, why do you want this item for?”

Zong Shou was speechless, thinking why this Dragon Shadow ask about the reason only now?

He kept silent and didn’t reply as he looked forward at where the people were at. After a long while he said calmly with no voice ripples,”Since he sees me as his heart demon, then I don’t mind to become the demon of his heart, someone he fears for life!”

Dragon Shadow old man held his breath, following which he burst out into a laugh.

“Good boldness, as expected from my disciple!”

He laughed out frenziedly, his tone filled with anticipation.

…

“External pill?”

A thousand feet away Long Ruo was startled as he looked at Zong Shou who was opposite him.

The red and blue jadestone that had suddenly appeared entered his field of vision right away. He was able to right away recognize that this was a heaven quality external pill.

However, Long Ruo didn’t understand.

“Looking at its grade it is at least grade 2 and merged with 2 heaven veins!”

Han Nishui frowned, as he was worried that the martial saint spirit would notice when they interacted he was really careful. In the sky, he used spiritual energy to write words to replace speaking.

There were no sound fluctuations and all spiritual energy was retracted within.

“Does he want Zong Shou to borrow the power of the external pill? But this kid has no internal energy, what’s the use of that item?”

What Li Yuandan paid attention to were the yellow-colored spots. Thinking carefully about it, he was able to think about how that item came about. He gathered spiritual energy to form words in the air.

“It should be dragon essence, it is said that all true dragon types are the purest beings in the world. The so called dragon essence is naturally formed around them when they absorb heaven and earth spiritual energy. It is useless to the true dragons but to human cultivators and beasts, it is a top grade pill medicine. It can strengthen the body, make one’s foundations better and increase strength. Looking at the intention of Dragon Shadow, he wants to merge these dragon essences into Zong Shou’s body. What a waste of a treasure! With the barriers from heaven there what’s the point of that? No matter how he improves he is still a piece of trash…”

Long Ruo kept silent, numerous questions rose up in his heart at the same time. He was just a successor to his sword path so why did Dragon Shadow treat that kid so well?

The moment such doubts just rose up, however, it was instantly squashed by him.

The killing intent in his heart was already decided, so why did he need to think about all that?

No matter what Zong Shou and Dragon Shadow were doing, it wouldn’t matter. He just needed to cut off the head of Zong Shou!

Since he wanted to help Zong Shou merge with this dragon essence, then Dragon Shadow old man, who was hundreds of worlds away, wouldn’t be able to care for so many different things at once.

That time would be a good chance to attack.

Thinking about that a thread of lightning flashed in Long Ruo’s eyes.

“You want to attack?”

“Han Nishui’s brows were tightly furrowed, “After all, he is the Gantian Monster king, the lord of a city! Killing him concerns many things. Dragon Shadow martial saint is also caring for him and even if he won’t take revenge for him he definitely wouldn’t be willing to lose face.”

“Even so I have to kill him! This is a battle of the cultivation path. This kid blocks my path which is why I can’t back off. After killing him, I will leave the cloud world so as not to drag down the sect. I have a hiding and movement technique which can hide me from the martial saint intent. I have a feeling that if I don’t kill him soon, one day the 3 of us will die in his hands.”

Slightly shaking his head, Long Ruo turned around and looked coldly at the other 2, “If you 2 are unwilling you can back out!”

Long Ruo’s words were written with fire element spiritual energy. Han Nishui instantly took in a deep cold breath, filling a chill down his bones.

This Long Ruo was crazy, he had gone totally mad!

He understood in his heart that if he rejected, the 1st person to suffer from his maniacal revenge would be him.

This person plotted far and wide, dragging both Pill Fountain Sect and Mysterious Cloud spirit sect into this matter. After this matter, if the dragon shadow martial saint takes revenge their 2 sects wouldn’t be able to stay out of the matter.

On the side of Li Yuandan, he was silent and didn’t say a word, light flashing in his eye. He was already feeling some regret. If he knew this would happen he wouldn’t have followed them 2.

It wasn’t difficult to kill this Zong Shou, just one sword could end it all. What was difficult was the aftermath. In the eyes of the Dragon Shadow Martial Saint, they were just ant-like beings. The moment their tracks were found he could just kill them with a flick of his finger.

If the price to pay was leaving the cloud world and living the rest of their lives in fear, he would rather swallow this anger and find another method to solve the problems with the mysterious moon wood brilliance technique.

Long Ruo swept both of them, the coldness in his gaze retracting. He laughed coldly before focusing back on Zong Shou who was a thousand feet out.

He knew that although he had threatened the 2 behind him, it was difficult to make them follow him wholeheartedly. However he didn’t wish for the 2 to help him all out, just giving some support was sufficient.

They just needed to be wrapped up within and they won’t be able to get out.

A thin thread drifted down his sleeves suddenly, it looked like a little snake but it had scales and horns. It was also looking coldly forwards.

The soul power gathered within the broken blade sword in his hand was becoming thicker and thicker, light whistling started to spread out.

Han Nishui was shocked and knew that Long Ruo was about to hide.

Looking at Zong Shou once more, those yellow spots had mostly seeped into his body. Sweat covered his face, it was obvious that he had reached the crucial moment.

The next moment he heard Long Ruo holler, “Aid me!”

Han Nishui’s heart sank, speaking of which, he was one of the causes. Since the matter had reached such a state, he couldn’t dodge the responsibility anymore.”

He didn’t hesitate anymore as he cast out a few spells instantly. He chanted out, when 2 grade 7 spirit beasts appeared beside him, his soul came out of its shell. Following which he controlled numerous spiritual waves to gather towards Long Ruo-Great Sky spirit leading technique, Great Sky essence spirit technique, a series of spells all helped to buff Long Ruo’s body.

Even Li Yuandan sighed, taking out a black colored pill of unknown grade.

He grabbed strongly and broke it into pieces. Following which his right hand patted softly on Long Ruo’s body.

He had converted all the medicinal powers of the pill and helped to pat it into his body.

Long Ruo’s face instantly flushed red, the glow in his eyes was even brighter as his sleeves shook. That thin little black serpent had leaped out. The moment it was hundreds of feet away its body spread open, turning a thousand feet long as it bit forwards fiercely.

Pretty much at the same time, there were 2 more grade 7 snake-shaped spirit beasts who appeared, circling and protecting him. Long Ruo stopped caring anymore, his soul leaping up into the sky.

It was mist like but a gold light shone, the solar energy was vast and bountiful. He rode that broken blade sword and with a flash, he was hundreds of feet out as he pierced towards Zong Shou’s throat.

He just needed this sword and he could end this kid’s life!

When Li Yuandan acted, although he wasn’t willing, looking at the situation, he was astonished.

Long Ruo’s cultivation was half a step to grade 8. Having the buffs of their spells and medicinal properties, the strength of this sword could be compared to peak grade 8 experts.

Just at this moment, at the corner of his eyes, he saw 2 people walking out from one of the cave tunnels.

Li Yuandan was stunned, apart from them, there were people who weren’t teleported out of the cave.

In the next moment, he recognized that they were the junior students of Long Ruo. The 2 most outstanding people of the 4th generation of Lingyun Sect.

However, at this moment Yan Feibai and Ge Hanyun’s faces were filled with despair.
