Chapter 418: Initial decision on the Dharma

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Zong Shou casually took a glance at the Phoenix egg. It seems like it was at most 2 days away from hatching.

The red fire golden Phoenix could be used as the spirit of the vermillion bird. Although the dark chill tiger belonged as a beast king of people the same grade, unfortunately, it was a spirit beast and only after its physical body grows and its bloodline is pure could it become the spirit of the white tiger.

As for the remaining 3 spirit beasts, who knew where he could obtain them. He didn’t bother about those of Low grades since they won’t be able to handle the five-element spirit contract.

Sighing, Zong Shou retracted his gaze. Then. which he looked towards his right hand. On it, there was a thumb-sized black dot.

It was the heaven swallowing energy conversion technique which was swallowing everything around. It was like a black hole, able to swallow everything. At this moment it was being controlled by Zong Shou, to make it much gentler.

The so called black hole was something produced by a huge world. It was a giant world that the cloud world god-emperor took down thousands of years later.

It was said that that world was thousands of times bigger than the cloud world. There was no way to touch the corner of it. The only thing was spiritual energy was thin and cultivation was impossible. There were only some special environments where life existed.

The sun in the cloud world in that whole new world was called a star.

It was said that when this star became extremely weak, it would become a so called blackhole.

That was something cultivators found out accidentally thousand of years later. It could swallow all spirits of the world, light as well as the spiritual consciousness of the cultivators.

It existed in the galaxy and couldn’t be seen by the naked eye and sensed by the soul. One could only use nearby star regions to confirm its position.

It was said that several experts of various worlds all charged out to comprehend the mysteries behind it. However, most of them were helpless and forced to return.

Zong Shou was fortunate to be able to read several notes regarding this blackhole.

“To use this great sun dharma, cultivating it to the extreme or rather just spinning it around and it would become day swallowing…”

“There were rumors that all big and small worlds were born from a small spark, swelling and expanding. In the end, when it is destroyed, be it time or space, it would go back to that small point!”

“Didn’t the Taoists mention that 1 gives birth to 2, 2 to 3 and then 3 into ten thousand organisms?”

“It was said that outside of the black hole there were talks of a white hole which came out from an end realm expert. Opposite from the black hole, it gave off limitless light, unlimited heat, and energy. However, no one has discovered it. That was because no light was able to enter, similarly, the naked eye couldn’t see it and spiritual sense couldn’t reach in. That world was also too wide…”

Along with many thoughts rising in his head, his gaze became more and more eye-catching. He felt that he might have found his true path.

“My sword path walked the past of ten thousand mergings into one. To search for the origin which is to use the laws of thousands of worlds to search for the roots. It seems like this day swallowing dharma can also be found from the martial path. However when this dharma is formed, how high is it graded amongst the Buddhists?”

Mumbling to himself, Zong Shou grasped with his right hand, causing the thumb-sized black color ball to disappear in his palm.

With his current cultivation to do that was nearly impossible. Which was why he wasn’t greedy, only wanting to get the shape right but not its aura and strength. They would be what he strives towards after he entered the celestial path.

However, even then Zong Shou could also foresee the difficulty of forming the day swallowing dharma.

The future was a huge riddle which he would stop at nothing to search for the correct method to solve the problem.

Although this path was tough, he had a feeling that if he succeeded it would open another path.

“What’s the point of thinking so much for? What path? It isn’t time for him to think about all these things.”

Mocking himself, Zong Shou stepped directly out of the door. Driving the sword as he headed into the distance.

This time he directly pierced out of the common people vast habitat.

The common people’s vast habitat was built in the void. Apart from leaving through the spell formation or reaching grade 7 and breaking some weaker void barriers. If not no matter which direction one left in, it would be areas similar to the spirit river or space fissures.

The place he was rushing towards was an extremely close small-sized spiritual ocean not far away from common people’s vast habitat.

However, it was different from other areas, as this place was right behind the common people’s vast habitat, there were few beasts or evil demons who came here. Which was why common people path disciples treated it as a trading market.

Many disciples often listen to lectures in the vast habitat. At night they would come over here to set up stalls to do business. It was said that there were even some merchants directly under the sect who sold pills and artifacts.

This was also something he heard from Hanfang, one of the uses of merit points. To obtain merit points, one had to personally attack. However if one wanted to come here to trade, the sect recognized it, only they would collect 5% of fees.

It was said that 8 thousand years ago the market was opened within the vast habitat. After Wei Xu became the revered one, he despised the thick market atmosphere which he felt affected values. Although he didn’t have a way to close it down, he had the power to shift it out of the vast habitat.

Zong Shou was also speechless regarding this matter. He felt more confident with Wei Xu’s words on how they were a part of the Confucians a while ago.

Only those Confucian who hated such corruption would pay attention to such dumb matters.

Entering the market, Zong Shou directly went to the few shops set up by the sect.

As expected, from an internal common people path market, most of the things that were prohibited to sell outside could be bought here.

Zong Shou didn’t look at them one by one. The things he wanted had been preordered tens of days ago and at this moment he only needed to pay money.

Spending the merit points, those things were obtained, their looks were quite decent.

Zong Shou’s face was filled with joy.

After all his cultivation method was close to the Taoist line, different from Buddhism. If nothing goes wrong that Yin Yang dharma, he wanted to form needed to borrow external items. Most of the steps needed to be prepared now.

These few spiritual items were selected by him which could help him form the dharma.

“What a waste. I still lack 2 treasures to be the core of the dharma. This great sun dharma finally can be done. Within that demon corpse mountain, there is still that blazing glass pearl buried there. A few days ago, I let Zong Gang move secretly to help me obtain it, he would be able to do it without anyone knowing. Only this darkness element and also a treasure which had the swallowing ability is tough to find. In my memory, there are only these 3. One of them has already fallen in the hands of others. There are 2 which are buried in ancient ruins but those 2 places haven’t appeared to the world.”

His brows frowning as he walked into the talisman pavilion of the sect, obtaining a celestial grade 9 changing barrier-breaking talisman in his hand.

Just this one made him spend 200 thousand merit points.

Talismans had 9 grades of spiritual talismans, 9 grades of magical talismans, 9 grades of celestial talismans and 9 grades of end talismans.

This celestial talisman was made by one god realm expert of the sect. Based on what the deacon said, he didn’t want to earn. He just wanted to help common people path juniors and he would be happy.

Furthermore, this 9 changing barrier-breaking talisman’s grade should be even higher than that Taixuan heart locking soul settling talisman, its spiritual power was even thicker.

Thinking about this matter Zong Shou looked at his left sleeves with a little grievance.

Inside there, Hanxi had turned into a silver egg and was sleeping.

Although that Taixuan heart locking soul settling talisman wasn’t as good, it should be able to be exchanged for 150 thousand merit points. When sold out one could even obtain even more beast crystals and mind stones.

But such a celestial talisman at the start was unable to control Hanxi’s mind completely being countered by it instead.,

How strong was the soul and mind of this heaven and earth variant? That even a celestial talisman couldn’t suppress it?

And also that senior Brother Han confused him. However, the reason why he came to find him was clear. He came for Hanxi, this mutated ant queen would be really important to him in the future.

Shaking his head, Zong Shou preciously kept the celestial talisman back into his heaven and earth bag.

Since he had no choice, he could only take the risk and go all out. He knew where one place was at and this talisman could break open the restrictions and seals.

However, it was also extremely dangerous. The chances of dying were as high at 90%.

The last item he ordered was a furnace used especially to craft artifacts. There were also tens of fire Essence stones taken from the depths of magma.

Zong Shou’s artifact crafting standards were like that of his pill refining. He wanted to learn in his last life, but he wasn’t able to.

In this era, he had a way to learn but no time to. He had other reasons for buying these items.

After obtaining all these items did Zong Shou have some free time. Leisurely looking around and walking around.

The items here came from the 3 sects, 6 schools, and main hall shops and were the most expensive.

However from the disciples who set up shops, sometimes he was able to get some good stuff.

For example, the last time he came, Zong Shou bought a rare spiritual item lightning diamond which could be into a weapon for Zong Yuan. He also used a Phoenix egg to exchange for a mysterious carving which was a direct descendant of ancient god beast Yingyue. Its value was not lower than the Phoenix egg since it would become Ruoshui’s life spiritual beast.

It was best at hiding and spying. It was said that it’s ancestor yingyue could not only travel on land but it could teleport through space. Every time it pounced, it brought with it the power of space-time that very little people could block.

It was one of the beasts that were hardest to fight during the cloud desolate era.

As expected, after a month, many new good things appeared in the stalls.

A few of them made Zong Shou tempted. In the last life, no matter how hardworking he was, he couldn’t get them.

However, he suppressed his urge and didn’t purchase them. To them, these spiritual items weren’t needed and buying them was just a waste.

A moment later his eyes were set on a stall near the exit of the market.

A tall and muscular brute who was no weaker than Yin Yang sat there. In front of him, there was a white cloth with just 2 things on it.
