Chapter 1107: Change Between Life And Death

The Life and Death Power of the Creation Death Fountain might help increase his cultivation, but it also might make him something that was half alive and half dead.

However, Zong Shou wanted the Life and Death Laws within.

Millions of years of nurturing would cause the fountain water which began as a really ordinary item to slowly become a God item. There had to be the essence of numerous laws within!

However, he wanted to understand more how the two opposite powers existed with one another.

Zong Sho picked up one drip of it and used his Spiritual Sense to observe it.

Slowly his brow rose up, the liquid was gathered as one body and Life and Death Power mixed with one another.

It wasn’t tough to deduce the structure within, but to fully understand what was going on would take him hundreds of years.

Zong Shou shook his head, that was a little too much. Even if he left the tomb, he also wouldn’t do that, it was too much of a waste of time.

“No! There should be a loophole within…”

Just as his Spiritual Sense left, Zong Shou thought about how this Creation Death Fountain was something that was just gathered by pure luck and it wasn’t the actual item.

Although its effects were similar, since it forcefully gathered Life and Death together, it definitely wasn’t as stable as it was formed naturally where it would be perfectly matched.

He instantly threw in more Spiritual Sense and bit by bit he ran through all the law patterns within.

Moments later, Zong Shou was delighted.

Without any hesitation, he used True Qi such that the weakness of it tore apart and was magnified.

There was a chain reaction that caused the power of the laws to fall apart piece by piece and the Life and Death Powers started to conflict with one another.

They repelled one another and even started to compete against one another.

In just a breath, the liquid became a water bubble and then disappeared in the air.

Surprise appeared on Zong Shou’s face. This was the effect that he wanted.

After it exploded, the laws started to split apart and go against one another.

Many of the spiritual patterns were on full display, the mysteries of how Life and Death merged were completely shown in front of his eyes.

Unfortunately, there was so much within it that he was unable to record it all down with his Spiritual Sense and he was only able to comprehend a little.

Just like the scenes of the Absolute Beginning, even if he used 1,000 years of his lifespan to comprehend it once more, he would still be unable to remember even 1% of it. The remaining ones were things he had to deduce on his own in the future.

The Creation Death Fountain naturally couldn’t compare to that, but it was still filled with a large number of mysteries.

However, this time Zong Shou had more than 200 drops to use until he fully understood the Life and Death mysteries within.

“Thankfully it was the incomplete fountain, if it was the complete one then there would be nothing that I could do…”

Zong Shou greedily thought back to each drop and bit and tried his best to look into those secrets.

In the last life, the Styx River Death Sword that he cultivated used Death Energy to harm enemies.

During this life, due to Lin Xuanshuang teaching him the Source Life technique, he had deep attainments in the Life Dao.

However, after all the knowledge was forcefully injected into him, so he was unable to understand the Life mysteries that Xuanshuang had learned.

His understanding of Death was also even more shallow. The Styx River Sword Intent he grasped still remained at late Soul Realm.

Making use of this Death Fountain, not only was he able to understand the Life mysteries that Lin Xuanshuang thought him, there were hundreds of other Death Laws that he wasn’t able to comprehend that his Spiritual Sense was able to pick up.

The secrets of how Life and Death powers coexisted to him was as if a girl was totally naked and displayed fully in front of his eyes.

He greedily comprehended all of this. Who knew how long passed, only until there was nothing to comprehend did he slowly awaken.

The tomb room was dark but Zong Shou was able to deduce that a day had passed since he started his meditation.

“How amazing. If I am able to comprehend it all, I might be able to grasp a strong skill…”

His Dao Foundations wasn’t the Life and Death Law. So the power he comprehended could only be used as an ability.

The other four people who entered the room were all busy with their own matters.

Shen Yuexuan was already carving the stone while Su Xiaoxiao was absorbing the Vengeful Essence.

The so-called seven emotions: joy, rage, sadness, joy, love, evil, and desire. The so-called six desires: sight, smell, scent, taste, touch, and mind. They were one’s craving for things and life.

The seven emotions and six desires were one body and were tough to split apart.

Gong Xinran’s Vengeful Essence was said to be the vengeful thoughts that living spirits craved the most when they were alive.

Su Xiaoxiao absorbing large amounts of the six desire vengeful energy that could greatly strengthen the Yuan Demon Seven Emotion Technique.

At this moment, Yuan Wushang was focused on crafting talismans. He obtained many beast leather from Gong Xinran with 10% of his Vengeful Essence.

Chuxue was focused on meditation and her expression was rarely this focused. It was obvious that she was frightened by Gong Xinran’s news and had been focused on purifying her True Essence and Soul Power to raise her cultivation. At the same time, she comprehended her Blood Moon Blade.

…With her cultivation skills, let’s not have too much hope in that.

However, if she was really able to comprehend something then it would be really surprising.

Chuxue awakened Spirit and Martial Arts merger when she was Grade Seven. Although she wasn’t like Zong Shou, who could form Celestial Power, with the strength of her internal world she was far stronger than people of the same grade. The better she got at controlling the blade, the stronger she became.

Zong Shou took a look and he didn’t bother about it anymore. He took out those three Darkness Blooming Cereus and dripped the liquid on them.

Luckily, he woke up in time and didn’t miss the time to water it, otherwise, it would be problematic.

If they lacked the essence provision when it was about to mature and mutate, then these three flowers would be at a total loss.

Just like that, he watered it every 24 hours. And then he would use a drop to comprehend in meditation.

49 days passed in the blink of an eye. The Darkness Blooming Cereus became more and more white, among the white there was a pink color.

One couldn’t see that the three flowers had absorbed the power of Life and Death, nourished by the purest vengeful energy, growing from the darkest areas.

It was brimming with life while also bringing a thick death energy.

At the start, there were numerous human body-like veins but in the end they slowly disappeared.

49 days later, the petals were tightly wrapped and it was totally silent.

Zong Shou knew that it had stored enough power and had started to mutate.

When it bloomed once more, that would be the day it would be completed.

Zong Shou was looking forward to it but still focused on studying the Creation Death Fountain liquid.

At the start, he needed a full day to digest each drop.

However, now in just four hours he would be able to consume a drop.

This was because he had grasped all the mysteries within, such that the liquid was only helping to make up for what he lacked.

On the 60th day, Zong Shou woke up.

“Oh? Someone had broken into the main tomb? That’s quick…”

60 days was equivalent to 14 hours on the outside.

Breaking through heavy barriers and entering the main tomb. One could tell how strong that person was.

However, at this moment, Zong Shou felt like there were numerous things beneath this layer that had come alive.

There were a few strong auras that were comparable to the Saint Realm.

“Is it the Terracotta Warriors?”

Zong Shou shook his head, no it would be something more.

He only knew that the people in the main tomb were in deep trouble.

Entering the main tomb was like stabbing a bee’s nest. Zong Shou was uneasy and he felt like the opening of the tomb might have caused a huge catastrophe for the Cloud World.

Especially those who comprehended a lot of Life and Death Power. One would be able to clearly sense that there was a strong heart in the main tomb that was beating and awakening.

Gudu, gudu…

Zong Shou’s brow rose up, did that Qin Emperor really not die? Could he revive? What a joke is this?

He had many questions in his heart but he could only suppress them and meditate once more.

This time he only opened his eyes when the spiritual energy in the Book of Eon was used up.

…Yin River gathered, Nine Death Gates. Sword art connected to death, signaling your death!

A giant Death Gate opened and Zong Shou’s body started to change.

His hair turned ashen white and blood faded from his face. The hand that he grabbed the sword with became dry.

However, unlike before, when Zong Shou used the Styx River Death Sword, he was a living person and was independent outside of the sword, which caused a huge weakness in the blade.

However, at this moment, he was totally merged within. As the Styx River flowed, his body floated forwards in an ethereal manner. The sword in his hand was indiscernible and was filled with thick Death Power.

A few breaths later he stopped. When the Death Gate closed, Zong Shou came back from the dead and he recovered fully.

“This was the Life and Death Switching Dao! My Styx River Death Sword is at least 10 times before!”

Without this switching technique, the Styx River Death Sword would at most be a Grade Eight technique. After which it was at least Grade Eleven.

If one was good at one Law, then one would understand many. With Zong Shou’s current sword path attainments, any sword technique in his hands would become a top technique after some slight modifications.

However, due to this weakness, Zong Shou was forced to give up on this Styx River Death Sword.

Since he comprehended the benefits of Life and Death in one body, he knew that it was really good. The Styx River Death Sword was just one of it and it was just the weakest one.

At the same time, Zong Shou felt something.

“It has already matured?”

That Darkness Blooming Cereus should have mutated half a month ago. However, he didn’t notice it as he was too focused.
