Chapter 688: Cause And Effect Knife

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

His gaze flashed and a moment later he heaved a sigh and asked impassively.

“Why did you think of such a method out of nowhere?”

He also found it weird. Such a Grand Path couldn’t be thought of for no reason.

Zong Shou laughed, waving his sleeves and instantly a silver light flew out.

It seemed illusionary and in the blink of an eye it was in front of Aokun. That sharp intent caused even Aokun to frown.

“How quick!”

At that moment, his fingers pincered in front of him. A flying knife finally landed in his hands. It continuously shook like it was trying to break away. However, under his suppression, it used up its strength and was smashed to pieces.

Aokun’s eyes turned serious.

That knife was filled with Zong Shou’s Nine True Dragon Sword Intent and was at the peak Soul Realm level!

However, to him it wasn’t worth a mention. What caught his attention was the speed of it.

It was really quick!

Naturally, it couldn’t harm him but it far exceeded the Spirit Realm level.

When the knife slashed over he had a weird feeling, like the space the knife passed through was shortened.

Pondering on it, he realized the reason.

“It is the power of time, so that was it...”

It wasn’t that the space was shortened, but that the time it went through was accelerated.

He finally knew why Zong Shou would make such a suggestion.

“That’s right! What does Brother Ao think about that knife?”

Zong Shou smiled. During these 30 days, using the Book of Eon acceleration, that was a full 300 days, close to a full year. He didn’t just study the Seven Star Xuan Lightning Book.

Actually, a large part of his time was spent on how to improve this Six God Defensive Knife Technique.

Using his soul to nurture the knife and link up with knife intent... That was the essence of the technique.

Along with the Sky Fox Illusionary Technique and Sword Driving Technique similar to that of a Spirit Master, it had much more ability to change directions. This knife would pretty much hit its target every single time!

However, the higher the level, the more this Grade-8 Earth Crushing Martial Arts felt lacking.

It had sufficient strength, but each time it struck, 70-80% of its strength was already consumed along the way.

This was the case when he fought Jia Mingluo. He threw out several knives and was unable to kill him, even when he was heavily injured.

It already became a weakness.

Zong Shou had wanted to modify this technique and since he was about to break through the Heaven Barrier he needed strength the most.

With this Eon Book giving him dozens more years of time, he was planning to accumulate and push some pinnacle techniques he grasped to the extreme.

His first choice was the Six God Defensive Knife Technique.

His newly grasped Time Acceleration Technique was a perfect match!

Because he was currently studying this method, when Aokun asked what he thought, he explained using the theory behind the Technique.

“It is not bad! But, the knife is a little weak and can’t take it.”

He swept at the dust, frowning, “This knife seemed like it lost many changes. Although it is fast, it isn’t as nimble as before.”

Zong Shou laughed helplessly as Aokun’s evaluation was spot on.

His comprehension of time wasn’t sufficient. He could only accelerate time on a straight line. Once direction changed, the speed would drop.

Apart from that, because it was too fast, his soul was unable to control it, so naturally it wasn’t as nimble.

The quality of the knife also wasn’t ideal.

His current Cloud Flame Flying Knife indeed couldn’t support the Time Power.

He had already crafted it for two years and it wasn’t good enough now.

However, it could still barely be used.

He sighed, thinking to himself that in the eyes of experts it was really not worth a mention. Aokun looked over with a weird expression.

“However, I think that there are some parts you got wrong! Since you want to chase the pinnacle of speed you can’t keep some changing ability. Don’t you know that the fish and the bear’s palm can’t exist together? You just need the knife to be 30% faster and no one under Heaven Realm will be able to block it!”

Zong Shou was startled, his lips curled up. He was indeed too greedy.

Actually, he had such a plan long ago. He was only hesitating, wanting to merge the speed and change in direction perfectly.

Aokun’s words totally woke him and he finally was able to make a decision.

With a thought, he waved his hand once more and another silver light flew out.

A moment later, it was right in front of Aokun. Right away Aokun pincered it lightly. However, this time there was a crisp clang and then the body of the knife exploded.

Strong sword intent surged out. Although it was instantly crushed, a thread of blood flowed from his fingers.

It was a light cut and it healed instantly. However, Aokun was in a daze.

He had predicted the future of the knife technique when he had given pointers.

However, at this moment, he couldn’t help but feel shocked.

That knife could actually hurt him?

It was also because he wasn’t on guard, his body wasn’t strong and his aura was unseeable.

Zong Shou also borrowed the King Path power and his strength had reached the Celestial Realm.

However, after all he was someone who was just at the Heaven Realm...

How quick! It was at least 50% faster than before!

Zong Shou seemed to not bother with all the other changes since the power within the knife was also double that of before.

Focus, energy, soul all merging into one, speed and strength in a perfect combination!

Like there was even a bit of the power of fate within...

Sighing for a moment, Aokun asked with a weird expression.

“How many of those knives can you shoot out?”

Zong Shou was stunned, a moment later he came back to his senses, “Only three in a day. Within three months, I can only develop five of them...”

The key was the control of time which consumed too much Soul Power. It was heavily taxing on the mind; energy and focus combining, energy and soul combining. He could only achieve that when he was in his best state and it would last only for a short moment each day.

As for that power of fate, to date he was still unable to accurately grasp it.

Each Six God Knife would require a lot of time to develop.

“Only three?”

Aokun muttered with a complicated expression. He was both a little disappointed while also showing a sign of relief.

Thankfully! If this knife could be casually fired, then other people could forget about living.

It was as expected from the Book of Eon Extreme Life. Zong Shou had just studied a little and his strength was increased immensely. The Path of Time was truly one of the strongest laws.

“I was worried that you couldn’t handle the Heaven Barrier Tribulation, but now I am at ease!”

Aokun naturally wouldn’t think that Zong Shou couldn’t break that layer.

He called it a tribulation but actually he was actually worried about other people.

Naturally, he and Dragon Shadow would deal with Celestial Realm and God Realm people. However, under Zong Shou, he had to depend on himself.

There were too many experts in the Taoist Sect. As for the Demon Sect, they might also prevent him too.

Although the Sky Demon Vast Habitat was trying to be friendly, their sects were more chaotic than the Taoists. How would they listen?

However, each time he recalled that knife just now, he felt pity for these people.

Who would be the unlucky one to fall first under that knife?

Looking at Zong Shou’s soul, it was close to full. It was filled with energy and once the eighteenth talisman was completed it was time for him to break through.

Today, he came for that reason. He wanted to repay Zong Shou’s kindness, but he didn’t think that he would end up owing more.

“You have 16 talismans and you still lack two?”

Zong Shou looked over at Aokun with curiosity. He naturally couldn’t hide his cultivation from Aokun.

He didn’t understand why Aokun would raise up this matter for no reason?

Speaking of the talismans, he had been worrying about them recently.

Within his Soul Ocean there was already these sixteen: Universe, Eon, Yin, Yang, Lightning, Thunder, Thunderclap, Luck, Stack, Swallow, Spit, Illusion, Purify, Life, Death, and Spirit.

However, he had been dragging on and didn’t form the last two.

He had a few choices but he found it inappropriate and had been hesitating on selecting them.

After all, it concerned his future and his achievements in Spiritual Cultivation, so he had to be careful.

In the next moment, Aokun smiled, “If there are no better choices, why not gather ‘Cause and Effect’? If your Six God Defensive Knife really wants to reach a level when you hit everything, you need to act on that path...”

“Cause and Effect?”

Zong Shou’s expression changed and he suddenly felt like smiling.

He was naturally clear about the weight of the two paths. These were also one of the Grand Paths, no lower than Eon and Universe.

It was similar to Fate and Luck, two of the toughest things in the world to grasp.

Time, Fate and then adding in Cause and Effect...

Zong Shou wanted but he didn’t dare get his hopes up.

He was already really lucky to grasp Universe and Eon, Black and White Holes as well as so many other top laws.

As for this Cause and Effect, it was far from what he could touch. Even if he wanted to comprehend it, he didn’t know where to start.

Moreover, cultivators like them focused on the Essence. These talismans in his soul were enough for him to study. He wasn’t free to add in these two huge paths.

Aokun didn’t speak, after smiling he turned and stepped into the void.

He came suddenly and left suddenly.

Zong Shou was just thinking about why he left so fast? He didn’t need to borrow his Eon Book? However, he saw a scroll in front of him.
