Zong Shou’s eyes flashed. He bowed once more towards the empty white tablet. He finally understood why there wasn’t a single word on it.

So his master had a chance of reviving.

Only based on what he knew, just saint realm experts, the common people path had tens of them. There were end realm experts, so why didn’t anyone do anything.

Many doubts surged in his head, however, a moment later, he suppressed it all.

Although the mysterious life golden book could go against the heavens and summon the soul, it consumed a lot.

With the current state of the common people path, without 1 or 2 end realm experts taking charge, their foundations in the cloud world would instantly be destroyed.

This cloud world was different from other worlds. Ten thousand years of cloud desolate era had given birth to many experts.

Wei Xu also said that the book recorded all the core disciples of the common people path and he also said that less than 10% remained.

On rough estimation, only 50 odd people remained. No wonder his expression would look so tragic.

The current situation of the common people path wasn’t as glorified as it looked on the surface.

He looked calmly at the book in the air. Zong Shou couldn’t help but click his tongue about how special it was. As long as it was kept, then with just that bit of soul, one would have a chance of being revived. What a treasure.

Apart from that book, there were tens of treasures around. Zong Shou looked at them one by one, each item causing his heart to jump vigorously. All of them were all vastly powerful treasures, a few of them he had even witnessed their destructive ability in God-Emperor. Such treasures of such level players naturally had no affinity with them. Without exception, they were all in the hands of the NPCs.

Then, his field of sight was attracted by another thing besides the golden book.

It was a weird-looking ancient sword, 7 feet long and slightly pale gold. Its sword spine was unusually thick and the sword body was covered in layers of scale.

The other parts were normal and didn’t even have a little bit of reaction to spiritual energy. However, it could still float in the air. Moreover, it was placed in the most central position above most of the spiritual tablets.

He couldn’t explain what kind of feeling he was having right now. Anyways, after laying eyes on that sword, he couldn’t look away anymore.

“After that battle 8 thousand years ago, your teacher went around alone. Sometimes her tracks became a mystery. She left all her treasures and life’s knowledge to me to help her search for a disciple. However, these 2 things are too early for you. Wait for the day you can step onto the celestial path, and I will pass those things to you. Although you have no master, the leaders of the Taiyuan Sect and Seven Spirit Sect will great you as their direct disciple and take care of you greatly. If you have matters in the future you can find them. Your teacher and these 2 are closely related...”

As Wei Xu said that, he noticed that Zong Shou wasn’t paying attention. He frowned slightly before he laughed involuntarily, “This is one of the 7 celestial swords that the teacher crafted. Based on what he said, if one day he could merge all 7, it would be the day when our common people path rose once more. All my 6 senior brothers have one. But, this god refined sword, no one no matter their cultivation, was able to tame it. Many people even suspected that even if this sword was completely refined, it could only be left here for someone worthy. As long as one is a direct disciple of the sect one will have a chance to get it.”

Only then did Zong Shou come back to his senses. When he heard that, his gaze instantly lit up. But a moment later, Wei Xu poured down a bucket of cold water over him,” However this sect artifact can’t be easily given to people. Our disciples must be at least of the celestial realm and have self-protection ability before they could try to Indian the sword. If not, with such a treasure on them, it would be dangerous instead. You shouldn’t think about this thing now. Although you can try to get it after you reach the celestial realm, my other senior brothers and I only tamed the other 6 when we reached the saint realm. As for this one, even end realm experts might not have a way...”

His words were telling him not to reach beyond his grasp. Unless he reached saint realm cultivation if not he shouldn’t try.

Zong Shou laughed bitterly. Saint realm? End realm? Who knows how long it would take to reach those realms.

But why did he have such a weird feeling? Like the god refined sword was connected to him. Like with just a touch and even a thought he could claim it.

With such a thought rising, the sword covered in scales suddenly jumped.

Zong Shou blinked and looked closely but saw that the sword was calm as normal.

His brows furrowed, he probably saw it wrongly. Thinking about it, if this sword did move, with Wei Xu’s cultivation, he definitely would have noticed.

Then he saw Wei Xu smile,” speaking of this item, I forgot to give you your sect entering gift.”

As he spoke, a gold light flew up from within his sleeves. Zong Shou was about to catch it when it directly drilled into his brain and disappeared.

Before he was able to see carefully, another 2 yellow lights flew over. Zong Shou thought they would also enter his body. Only when they got close did he realize they wouldn’t. Panicky he grabbed them in his hand.

Looking closely it was a token and a jade letter.

He didn’t know what was the use of that jade letter. He only knew it was made of jade stone and was of high quality. The spiritual energy within was even stronger than when the nine qilin sword was restored by Little Gold.

As for the token, it was even better, even more exquisite. On the surface, it looked like an extremely normal grade 3 spiritual artifact. It should be a symbol item of the sect. In it was the carved name and birth details, but when he looked it with his senses, he could feel that there was something within. The spiritual formation’s complexity was even more than the nine qilin sword.

Zong Shou took a look and was extremely curious, “Taiyuan Sect direct disciple Zong Shou? What does this mean?”

Wei Xu didn’t reply, slightly lowering his head, “Why not try?”

Zong Shou was confused. He injected soul power in. Then, the token started to change. First was the name, seemly turning to Zhang San, Li Si, Zhao Da. Then even the identity of Taiyuan Sect direct disciple changed. Inner, outer, even elder, Seven Spirit Sect, anything he wanted.

Then Zong Shou activated the core formation within. He could sense his face was covered in a thin layer of spiritual energy. Although it wasn’t a face-changing item or illusionary technique, it could cause others to be unable to remember his looks.

This item along with his sky fox illusionary ability would have miraculous effects.

“With this time you can enter and exit the sects as you wish and it can also hide your identity. Gantian Mountain Monster king is the 7th direct disciple of my common people path main sect. If those Donglin Sects find out, they would be suspicious.”

Then he pointed at the jade letter, “as for this, it was refined specifically for you. It can gather space-time power in it. As long as you were within this world, every 10 days you can blink ten thousand miles and enter my common people vast habitat. The place you can use it in isn’t restricted, as for the exit location I chose Gantian mountain for you. At most, you can store spiritual energy for 3 times. However, the biggest use of this time isn’t this...”

Zong Shou brows raised, replying without hesitation, “To flee for my life!” His hands tightly clenched on this item. This was extremely precious to him, it was like having a few more lives.

Wei Xu smiled, his new disciple learned quickly.

...

When Wei Xu changed space once more and returned to Gantian Mountain, that dense night color still hadn’t faded.

The stars in the sky had just shown themselves.

Returning to the hall, the 4 women were still waiting there. When Zhao Yanran looked at him, her face was extremely weird. Green and white, before she scoffed. She probably couldn’t bring herself to call him by his seniority,

Xuan Yunlan also had a weird gaze. However, she was more respectful to Zong Shou. Seeing him she politely bowed, “Disciple Yunlan greets sect senior!”

Zong Shou smiled, “eh” to express unhappiness. Xuan Yunlan was helpless, only respectfully greeting, “Greetings great great great great great senior master!”

Only then did Zong Shou nod his head in satisfaction, 5 consecutive greats caused goosebumps to appear. He waved his hand, magnanimously waving his hand, “You can call me lord in the future!”

Xuan Yunlan was shocked. She thought, I’m not your subordinate so why should I call you lord? However, she felt that that greeting was much stronger than the great great great great great senior master, but she kept silent and didn’t retort. She looked towards Zong Shou with a pleading gaze.

Zong Shou didn’t know what she meant. A moment later he understood that she wanted to leave.

Although Gantian Mountain City wasn’t a big Sect, it was a really strong power in the world. Especially in this Gantian Mountain peak, Hanyan Palace, there were many experts. It was also closely guarded at night time.

Without his orders, Xuan Yunlan wouldn’t be able to walk out. He used his senses to feel and as expected that Zhao Yanran also didn’t leave, waiting at the door.

Zong Shou laughed expressionlessly, waving to Chuxue, “Send them down the mountain.”

Chuxue originally filled with many questions, but Zong Shou directly sent her away. She was unwilling, resentfully leading them away.

Ruoshui smiled, understanding that Zong Shou probably wanted some alone time. Without him saying anything, she walked out of the warm hall. However, she didn’t leave, just waiting quietly outside.

And just as the 4 women took their exit, Zong Shou directly sat cross-legged on the ground. He adjusted his breathing and entered meditation, letting his consciousness enter his soul ocean.

First, he wanted to know what exactly that ball of golden light was.
