620 Battle of Peng City
With just one thought, the chaotic illusions in his mind started to beco strict and orderly.
At this mont, what was shown in front of him was his battle against six in the underground lake.
These scenes were close to perfectly displayed, only with so slight changes. Zong Shou tried to change the way he dealt with the battle, or change his sword techniques, or make his sword trajectories more simple and efficient or try to grasp the timing and angle the slashing of his sword.
Naturally those six people didn’t stick to the sa models. As ti went on their attacks also started to change.
It ca from the Martial Path specialties of these six people but also from Zong Shou himself.
Thirty minutes later, the scenes in front of him changed once more. This ti there was only Zong Shou, the movent of the energies in his nine Chakra ridians could be seen clearly.
Threads of energy flowed within, continuously changing their paths.
He was deducing the world, shocking Spiritual Art after the Spirit Realm, trying to rge the Yin and Yang True Qi as well as the Black and White Hole Dharmas within his Soul.
This used up a lot of his heart’s energy and in just an hour, Zong Shou was forced to stop.
This proper Illusionary Heart Mirror was in fact much stronger than the replica that he had obtained from Xue Moyan.
The help it gave him was hard to describe in words.
However, although it didn’t consu much soul power, it consud lifespan.
Especially the Heart Demon ability as well as suppressing people of the sa race, they consud the most.
It wasn’t as exaggerated as the Book of Eon and the Stargazing Platform, but it was sothing he, who didn’t have much lifespan to begin with, could handle.
However, he could utilize the normal Illusionary techniques. Like just now when he used martial techniques to deduce, he didn’t need to worry about much, since it consud only his heart power.
Sighing, Zong Shou casually threw the Illusionary Heart Mirror into the Heaven and Earth bag.
This item was not bad but it was best to temporarily seal it. Usually, he could use it to deduce martial arts, along with the Book of Eon he would be able to benefit.
It wasn’t that he couldn’t use it, at least when he broke through to the Spirit Realm. Before, there were no worries about his lifespan, but now it was best if he used it less.
He sat cross-legged to regain energy. After four hours passed, he was fully energized and so he took out that Avici Throne.
Closing his eyes, he used his Spiritual Sense to search bit by bit for the restrictions within the Avici Throne. He used his Intent to communicate with this treasure’s Artifact Spirit.
Unfortunately although this item was close to a God Artifact Level. But due to its consciousness being underground, he was still in a clueless state.
The reason why it would choose him as its master was because during that battle he fought against six and didn’t lose. He was similar to its last two masters.
But wasn’t this item ford through the Soul Essence blood from the Imperial Race of the six countries?
Staying in that area which was filled with vengeful energy, shouldn’t this item be flooded with it?
Why when he used his Spiritual Sense to check, could he not find any vengeful thoughts?
However, he knew the functions of this item.
As expected from a country protecting treasure! Sorting out the Energy ridians was one of them. With this item, he could sort out all the Spiritual Veins within a hundred thousand miles. It could cause Dragon Veins to gather on their own accord, wherever it protected.
Making it such that the Ruler wasn’t infected by the King Energy was a second effect. The so-called King Energy was actually due to the many impurities ford when the hearts of the people were gathered. The reason why rulers were unable to live long was because these thoughts and impurities affected their souls. Although so people were too talented, it was tough for them to progress in their cultivation.
This Avici Throne had the function of suppressing and blocking these impurities.
Only Zong Shou didn’t have much hope for this item. If the Avici Throne could really suppress it, then Shihuang Emperor wouldn’t have died so early.
However, with this ti here, he could release the 9-Layer Pagoda in his soul.
This item was always used to suppress the King Energy gathered by the 1-Origin Soul Sword. Although Zong Shou was curious, he didn’t dare to move it easily. At this mont, he could observe clearly what kind of treasure Weixu had given him.
The third function was to expand the land over which the country’s ruler could gather strength.
Last ti, he could only gather the strength of the country within his own territory, allowing him to have combat strength of that of the Spirit Realm.
However, now with this item here, then even if he was ten thousand miles away from the country borders he could borrow the strength of the country.
Of course, the further he was the weaker the effect would be. No matter where he was, he could utilize it. Then this thing wasn’t a Peak Celestial Artifact but a God Treasure.
In this world spiritual materials were split into four grades Heaven Earth Xuan and Huang. That correlated to the god, Celestial, magical and spirit grades of artifacts.
Actually there were many materials used to make this Avici Throne that were Heaven Grade, which beca rare after the Cloud Desolate Era. However this country protecting treasure was slightly different.
It needed ten tis the material used to craft the sa Grade Celestial Artifacts.
The fourth function was to suppress and lock down Yin soldiers. This item could lock down the souls of the people whom he killed, turning them into Yin soldiers that could be utilized within a thousand miles. If his cultivation was sufficient, it might be possible to gather millions of Yin soldiers.
Naturally if they were strong elite troops, the number would be reduced.
Zong Shou smiled, as expected this item was obtained from blood worshipping, truly evil.
...if this item protected Gantian Mountain, just a hundred thousand Grade-4 Yin soldiers and the city would be really stable. Their defense would be even stronger than a Shrine Sect’s main mountain.
However, locking down the souls of people who died, such matters interfered with how Heaven and Earth were run and he wouldn’t do that.
Subconsciously he thought back to the Yin Flood Dragons in the Evil Spirit Moat.
In the past, he commanded the Blood Cloud Cavalry to wipe out many of them. At this ti, he felt regretful.
When he was free in the future he would go capture dozens over. If they were too little he might head to Yin Dragon canyon to see whether he could have obtain anything.
He thought back to the million Qin soldiers that the Xiangchu Overlord killed, could that have been for the Avici Throne?
Then he shook his head, that was when Xiangchu Overlord wiped out Qin country, before he obtained the Avici Throne.
If that was really the case, there wouldn’t be the Evil Spirit Moat near Gantian Mountain.
Retracting all these thoughts, Zong Shou thought about it and with a flash of his body he entered the Chongzheng hall.
Then, he took down that original Vermillion Dragon Carving Throne and placed the Avici Throne there.
This item wasn’t suited to be hand-carried, it was better to be left in Gantian Mountain to repress the strength of the country.
Chongzheng hall was where Gantian Mountain etings were held, where the King Energy was the thickest.
It was where Zong Shou’s throne should be.
The mont the Avici Throne was placed there, he could feel the entire ground shake. The surrounding Spiritual Energy suddenly swelled and then constricted, extrely restless.
A full ten minutes passed before it cald down. Looking around carefully, he didn’t notice any changes.
He could feel that the Dragon Veins that Zong Han and the few others gathered here were all changing.
The Dragon Head rose, like it got closer a little to the direction of the Chongzheng hall.
Zong Shou was delighted, with this thing here, he just needed to bring hundreds of Yin Serpents to protect this place. In the future, he didn’t need to worry about changes occurring in Gantian Mountain City.
Even if Great Shang attacked, with the Avici Throne and the Blood Cloud Cavalry, they would be able to hold out. They also didn’t need to worry about the Shrine Sects.
Laughing out loud, Zong Shou was just about to leave, but in the next mont his mind jolted.
He thought to himself, this Avici Throne seems really comfortable and majestic so why shouldn’t I try sitting on it?
He didn’t think much about it as he sat down on the throne.
Then, he was jolted awake, a bright light exploding in his eyes.
What a devilish item, actually daring to charm his heart.
He instinctively wanted to create problems for the Artifact Spirit. However, monts later he realized that it wasn’t right. What was projected in his mind didn’t co from the Spirit but from deeper within the Artifact!
However, with his current cultivation he couldn’t touch the deeper layers of the restrictions.
With a thought, the Illusionary Heart Mirror flew out from his Heaven and Earth bag. It flew behind his head and emitted waves of circular light.
This mirror not only ford illusions in one’s mind but also defended against illusions. He wanted to see what was inside the Avici Throne.
However, in the next instant, an extrely strong vengeful intent surged into his mind.
The scenes in front of him changed!
It was still an illusion which he could destroy if he wanted to, using the mirror! However, at this mont he didn’t stop it, allowing his thoughts to be brought in by the vengeful energy and grievances.
This was a world covered in blood light! The sky and earth was dark red in color. The sun shone down light with blood intent.
Zong Shou stood within and looked around. Then he squinted his eyes, only to see a giant iron cavalry standing quietly.
The aura was really quiet but it had a powerful strength that could stop one’s heart.
In front of him stood one person. Riding on a close to twenty-foot tall fire Stepping Dragon Beast, its body covered in a layer of iron spikes. In his hand was a long halberd. His body was covered in a dark blue fla.
His pair of eyes were hidden behind the helt, like that of a wolf, coldly focusing on him.
Xiang King?
The first thing that flashed in Zong Shou’s head was the thought of this person. If it wasn’t him, there wouldn’t be such an overbearing aura.
Was this the vengeful soul locked within the Avici Throne after Xiang King died?
Looking around, he was standing on a broken city wall.
So it wasn’t like he didn’t have any troops under him. He actually had many hundreds of thousands of troops more than the Xiangchu Overlord.
A portion defended the city whilst a portion was sent on both sides to protect the wings.
Zong Shou was first filled with questions. However, monts later when he looked out at the flowing river, he had a thought.
...This is the battle of Peng City?
