After all, it was the total merger of the soul. That day on the altar, although the soul ocean expanded by just 30%, the quality of the soul power close to doubled, no weaker than the return to sun realm.

Those weren’t the only benefits. Now, when Zong Shou focused on cultivating and expanding his soul ocean, his cultivation speed was close to triple of the past.

Last time, the soul power growth needed 3 days. Now, it only took 1 day to be completed.

It made Zong Shou silently happy. He started to seriously consider the 2nd wish of that Zong Shou-Zong Weiran who was hidden in the oblivion cloud ocean.

Towards this future maniac blood monster saint, nine tail fox king, Zong Shou’s feelings were really complicated. He respected him whilst also fearing him.

He subconsciously wasn’t willing to meet this person too early. After all, he had taken and occupied his only son’s body.

He was scared just thinking about Zong Weiran’s attitude towards him would be, but the other Zong Shou’s wish was to save him out of the cloud ocean.

“What a bother! Forget it, let’s just not deal with that matter. Who knows... maybe Zong Weiran was in deep cultivation beneath the oblivion cloud ocean, his life casual and carefree. I have totally merged with this body. Now if I didn’t bother, that kid could already be dead to me.

Following which his brows furrowed, and his heart felt cold,” Before he left he said that he is me and I am him. What did he mean?”

More and more he felt that this matter was extremely crucial. It concerned the aeon book of extreme life, the heaven swallowing energy conversion technique and even the mystery of how he came to this word from ten thousand years in the future.

Zong Shou took in a deep breath and forcefully suppressed these thoughts.

He started to form true spiritual charms one after another. Relying on the potential exploded out 2 days ago, all the charms related to the swallow word were all smoothly formed.

Only the purify word proceeded really slowly. Zong Shou sat 4 hours in the cultivation hall. It was only when his potential was totally consumed, that he formed 6 true spiritual charms of the swallow word. However, he didn’t even form a purify word.

In the end, he decided to give up, and Zong Shou opened his eyes. One of his hands touched Little Gold which had turned into a thin layer and entered deep thought.

To comprehend the meaning of this true talisman, this fellow could be considered his only hope to speed it up. However, its powers weren’t apparent now, and he wasn’t able to comprehend much from its body.

The only way would be to raise its grade. Only when it broke through to the 5th grade might he be able to peek into this godlike beast.

Although he was extremely rich now and had control of Gantian Mountain’s vast resources, easily having the recourses to take casually take 10 earth energy pills, he wasn’t willing to destroy the little guy’s future just like that.

It seems like he could only depend on his own comprehension.

Free and easily loosening his hand, Zong Shou smiled slightly as he took out a copper mirror. It was the illusionary heart mirror. His chest felt really excited.

Spiritual artifacts didn’t need any binding to be used. However, this illusionary heart mirror was slightly special and needed the sky fox bloodline.

Zong Shou knew about this item because this illusionary heart mirror was once really famous in the early parts of the God emperor game.

Especially in the Donglin Cloud Continent where people had obtained this treasure early on and went all about massacring people.

Anyone they didn’t like, they killed with the mirror. Even until Zong Shou had obtained the book of eon universal extreme life that person still hadn’t fallen. He was still so arrogant, and his spiritual cultivation extremely strong. His strength was just weaker than the 7 emperors and some peak spirit masters.

Zong Shou had once sparred with one of the good friends of that person. Hence he also found out that the reason why he was able to have such shocking achievements on the spiritual cultivation even with normal talent was because of this mirror. The way he used the mirror was totally different from how the Xue family who made it used it.

This mirror’s surface was smooth, comparable to the bright light mirror and even a little smoother. Zong Shou raised it up, and not long later, it flew out of the window.

It was coincidentally midnight with the moon in the middle of the sky. It was a full moon, shining the light onto the mirror and into the room.

When Zong Shou’s soul came out from the middle of his brows and was exposed to the moonlight, numerous threads of smoke rose up. The true fire of the sun that the illusionary heart mirror reflected burnt at his soul.

Zong Shou didn’t feel that it was taking much effort. The current soul power as compared to when he had just entered the night wandering realm was 10 times stronger and purer.

Even a completely full moon couldn’t have much hurt towards him. He totally disregarded it.

The hardest to deal with was the heavy illusions that appeared due to the reflection of that illusionary heart mirror.

The stronger the moonlight, the stronger the illusions. They all left many weaknesses within his soul.

Sadness, grief, happiness, rage all rose up in his mind.

Just as the night sky slowly faded and a bit of moonlight shone into the room, it was also reflected in the cultivation room and onto Zong Shou’s soul.

The illusions in his mind instantly changed. A 30-year-old middle-aged man appeared, really handsome. His body tall and his aura was like a sky pillar, able to support heaven and earth.

His Phoenix eyes looked down coldly, “Who are you? How bold! Why are you occupying my son’s body? Where is my son?”

Zong Shou felt his heart jolt, filled with guilt and also fear.

Seeing that guy’s eyes flash, a move from the indefinite spiritual emperor fist arriving from afar. Zong Shou opened his eyes wide and similarly reacted with a fist.

He was totally honest, he didn’t want to take over his body and he had no need to feel guilty! So why should he fear this Zong Weiran?

Hong!

An explosion burst out as the illusions in his mind totally disappeared. He only felt flames flowing in his soul and a really intense burning sensation.

The sunlight from dawn was getting stronger and stronger.even after being reflected by the illusionary heart mirror it was still more than 10 times that of the moonlight.

Under the shine of the sunlight, Zong Shou was able to hold on for just 15 minutes before his soul seemed like it was about to burn out.

However, he didn’t panic at all. With just one thought his body was covered in purple lightning, and it shielded off the firepower of the sunlight. Then the illusionary heart mirror also shifted away, spinning before entering the room once more and coming back to the front of his body.

When Zong Shou opened his eyes, he only felt an intense pain in his brain.

This was the price of a Ying soul fiercely taking on the burn of the sun. The spiritual energy within his soul ocean whirlpool was reduced by 5%.

However, overall, his strength didn’t decrease. Instead, in that short while, it had increased by a huge amount.

“This is the soul power of the Return to Sun realm?”

Whilst he was meditating, he felt that his soul ocean didn’t only have Ying coldness and had some Yang energy. There was a warm feeling that he never had before.

Normally speaking, for a spirit master to reach such a level, they had to gather up soul power to the extreme, getting to peak Ying before some Yang can grow out. To breakthrough this realm, even a hugely talented person would need years and years of accumulation and purification.

Today, he used the illusionary heart mirror and managed to cross it without difficulty.

Although his overall soul power amount reduced, in the future, when he cultivated, he could directly turn this soul into Yang nature.

The newly formed soul power would mean his body naturally had Yang energy. He didn’t need to spend effort converting anything, eventually saving him much energy.

He could even clearly feel that his soul’s control of spiritual energy was increased by a lot.

He was not as fearful of sunlight like before. The true qi conflict with the dantian and chakra meridians was also greatly reduced.

Zong Shou observed his soul ocean and he couldn’t help but laugh. This was the secret of that strong spirit master in the last life. He used this item to train his heart whilst changing the Ying soul into Yang.

After all, that was just a game. Even if it was said to be 99% real, it couldn’t truly display the spiritual artifact and couldn’t make it totally real. The so-called raise in the heart was just a bunch of data. The soul turning into Yang was also the same. It had totally no help to that spirit master’s real-life cultivation.

At that time, Zong Shou didn’t expect that he would obtain this item ten thousand years earlier, much less have sky fox blood.

What was more surprising was that the game settings could also be used in reality.

He thought back to Zong Weiran’s body from before and he frowned.

“Luckily! So my heart unknowingly had such a huge weakness. As expected to perfect the heart one needed to understand oneself...”

His brain still felt a piercing pain as he bound the illusionary heart mirror.

Ever since the sky fox Xue family created this item in the cloud world, they only treated it as a killing weapon, but in that future spirit master’s eyes, it wasn’t only that.

He found many new ways to use it, enough to cause the Xue family to get furious at themselves.

Only to see the mirror light flash and another illusion appeared in his mind. It was a green wilderness, filled with the scent of flowers and the sound of birds.

Zong Shou’s expression slowly calmed down. Everything good about humanity was displayed in front of him.

This was training the soul through peace and beauty to help rejuvenate oneself, making one forget about the pain and help to slowly heal the soul.

In the future, there was a theory passed about amongst spirit masters. To them, the value of the spiritual artifact and magical artifact wasn’t its price nor material but whether or not it could be used and whether it could show its effects.

Even the lowest grade spiritual artifact, if it could be used well, digging deeply and displaying its uses, it could be of great help.

In Zong Shou’s eyes, this function of the illusionary heart mirror meant its price could compare to those magical artifacts.

He heart that this item was modeled after a legendary item from the Xue family.

Who knew what the effects of the original piece were like.

Meditating slowly, the pain in his soul also slowly calmed down. It originally needed at least half a month to recover but now in just 2 hours, it showed signs of returning back to normal.

Zong Shou wanted to continue on but someone knocked on the huge door of the room. He heard Chuxue’s voice, “Young master are you free? Someone from Quiet Cloud Pavilion came, that Miss Xuanlan said that she’s the successor of the Qingyin School and once to meet young master...”
