Lu Zhou's first reaction was, 'What the heck is this thing?'
Due to the thickness of the black mist, the wings were indistinguishable from the black mist.
Just as the wings were about to strike Lu Zhou, there was a loud swoosh as they spread out for 1,000 feet. The feathers on the wings shone with a cold, silver light. Whoosh!
Lu Zhou pushed his palm forward. Unnamed transformed into a canopy.
Clang!
There was a huge golden ripple in the black fog.
Lu Zhou unleashed the power of a Grand Master. Space froze, and the black wings stopped.
He used his grand technique and shot up into the sky.
At its peak, the Primal Qi was gone. Even the air was scarce. A powerful pressure pressed down on him from all directions. It was as though a bubble had burst at the bottom of the sea, and seawater was flowing in.
A Grand Master realm cultivator did not need to breathe. Their bodies were strong enough to withstand the pressure from the air.
Lu Zhou did something even crazier. He continued flying into the sky like a shooting star.
Unfortunately, no one was able to witness this amazing scene, as it was completely blocked by the black fog.
Whoosh!
The wings that were as sharp as blades slashed at Lu Zhou from a peculiar angle.
It was so fast that it seemed as though it was tearing through space. Lu Zhou wanted to use his Dao power to escape, but the thin air and Primal Qi pressured him.
"Unnamed!"
A buzzing sound rang in the air as Unnamed raised its shield. Bam!
A halo rippled in the black mist. Lu Zhou was sent flying!
'It's powerful!'
He had gained a new understanding of the beast in the mist.
Based on his battle with the sacred beast, the fire phoenix, this beast's strength was not inferior to his.
Sizzle!
The wings supported Unnamed as he retreated.
Space, Primal Qi, and air were all suppressed.
This greatly exceeded Lu Zhou's expectations.
He had overestimated himself.
Lu Zhou was still thinking of a way to escape when he heard another swoosh from behind him. Another wing slashed at him.
He did not use his vision. He relied purely on his senses. His figure flickered! The pressure from the air slowed his movements. The beast was intelligent as well. It seemed to have expected this. It shifted its wings and flapped them upward.
Bam!
Lu Zhou unleashed his protective energy.
The Shield of Upstanding Qi only lasted for a few seconds before it shattered like glass.
The force slammed into his back.
Lu Zhou grunted. His Qi and blood surged, and he felt a stabbing pain in his dantian's sea of Qi.
The benefits of the strength of the third Life Gate came into play. His Dantian's Sea of Qi stabilized, allowing him to immediately mobilize his Yuan Qi and turn around to unleash a sky full of palm prints.
The palm prints were like stars, like snowflakes, like a violent storm.
All of them hit the black wings.
Unfortunately, it was unable to repel the wings at all.
"What can a mere wing do to me!?"
Lu Zhou was furious.
A Deadly Strike Card appeared in his palm. The card glowed and shattered in his palm.
A weak vortex formed, and the palm imprint suddenly expanded a thousand times, ten thousand times. Golden light illuminated the world, and with the power to cover the heavens and split the earth, it slapped towards the black wings.
Boom!
The palm print shone brilliantly on the ink-colored wings, and the black fog was also dispersed by this tyrannical and mysterious power between heaven and earth.
"Cluck!"
Below the ink-colored wings of unknown length came a sharp cry that resounded through the sky. It was as if the entire unknown land could hear this mournful cry. The beasts in the corner panicked and fled. The birds and beasts in the sky were so frightened that they automatically retracted their wings and fell from the sky.
The soundwave rippled out and fell to the ground. Even the towering ancient trees trembled.
The Deadly Strike Card was working.
This beast must be a holy beast, and it had more than one heart.
The beast felt pain from this attack. It gradually flew away and disappeared into the fog.
The fog in all directions filled up the area once more, surrounding it tightly.
Lu Zhou looked up at the sky. The pressure was growing.
Just when he was wondering if he should go back, a figure appeared next to him.
"Let's go!"
It was Chen Fu.
Chen Fu grabbed Lu Zhou's wrist.
With a power of laws that exceeded Lu Zhou's understanding, he tore through the void, crossed the vortex, and drove away the darkness.
Swoosh!
In the next moment, the two of them appeared on a mountain peak near the corner.
Chen Fu's eyes widened. He heaved a long sigh and released his grip. He said, "What a Nine-clawed Black Viper."
He shook his head as he looked at the retreating black mission in the fog.
Lu Zhou returned to the ground. The pressure was gone, and his Primal Qi was restored. His breathing was smoother now. Initially, he thought the living conditions in the unknown land were harsh. Compared to the fog, this place was heaven.
"Nine-clawed Black Viper?"
"It's a powerful beast reared by the Great Void. It's extremely powerful. Legend has it that it's a seed left behind from the ancient times. It was originally a worm that transformed into a Black Viper, grew wings, and turned into a dragon," Chen Fu said.
"Dragon?"
This reminded Lu Zhou of a totem from the earth era.
What he saw earlier and the impression he had in his mind were two different things.
Calling it a Black Viper seemed more appropriate.
"This Black Viper is extremely powerful. Its duty is to protect the Great Void from the humans and beasts below. You were in grave danger earlier, "Chen Fu said.
"How many hearts does it have?" Lu Zhou asked.
"I think six …" Chen Fu replied.
'Six … There should be quite a number of Birth Chart Hearts as well.'
Lu Zhou said regretfully, "Indeed, it's powerful."
"That's why you were too reckless," Chen Fu said.
Lu Zhou knew his earlier actions were slightly reckless. However, that was because he had 1,000,000 merit points and four Deadly Strike Cards.
Lu Zhou felt that it was a pity. He muttered to himself, "Perhaps, I should've killed it earlier."
Chen Fu asked, "What?"
"Nothing." Lu Zhou felt that if he told the truth at this moment, it would surely be taken as boasting. Hence, he decided not to say it.
Chen Fu looked at Lu Zhou and said, "If I'm not mistaken, you've concealed your cultivation base, haven't you?"
“???”
"When we were at Autumn Water Mountain, I once observed your cultivation. Some things cannot be concealed in the end," said Chen Fu.
'Uh …'
Lu Zhou did not know how to explain himself.
He canceled the effects of the Appearance Alteration Card.
His true appearance was revealed.
Chen Fu looked at Lu Zhou, unsurprised. He was even more certain of his guess now.
Chen Fu sighed and said, "It's been a long time since a decent cultivator has appeared. Over the years, anyone with decent talent would be taken away by the Great Void. "
"Why would the Great Void do this?"
"To maintain the so-called balance … In the vast universe, our predecessors came up with a few rules. The Law of Conservation, the Law of the Jungle, the Law of Space, the Law of Time, and the laughable Law of Balance, "Chen Fu said.
"Balance?" Lu Zhou was puzzled.
"The Great Void uses the balance of justice as its standard. A tilt represents an imbalance. If it's a small tilt, the Great Void will send someone to remove the imbalance. If it's a large tilt, the humans and beasts will be allowed to fight each other. The cleansed world will be more stable and balanced, "Chen Fu said.
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "How laughable."
Chen Fu said, "That's not all. The Great Void prides itself on being superior. To maintain the balance, it views the beings of the nine realms as worthless. Now that the imbalance has worsened, the Great Void might use this opportunity to burn the world. "
Lu Zhou frowned slightly when he heard this. He asked, "Why didn't they attack you then?"
He was a Great Saint, after all. The Great Void would definitely view him as an uncertain factor.
