Lu Zhou raised his hand. Primal Qi shrouded his palm as he pushed it forward by half a foot before he stopped. His fingers were trembling slightly.
Humans are not plants or trees. How can they be emotionless?
A teacher for a day is a father for life. Which father in this world could lay a hand on his own child?
Lu Zhou hesitated.
It was hard to imagine how difficult it was for a person to admit his own incompetence.
His thoughts were momentarily thrown into disarray. He made a series of assumptions. If he was not a transmigrator, if he did not capture them, if he was still an Eight-leaf cultivator, if he was Jiang Wenxu, would all of these things not have happened?
Countless chaotic thoughts filled his mind.
After a brief moment of confusion, Lu Zhou collected his thoughts. He spread his fingers and pushed forward.
When the golden palm seal arrived above Si Wuya, it transformed into several runic seals.
This was the sealing technique of the Celestial Master Dao Sect.
Back then, it was the most inconspicuous Daoist seal. Compared to the Binding Spell, the Seal Rune was slow and complicated. Nascent Divinity realm cultivators could cultivate and use it. At the Eight-leaf stage, they would be able to unleash great power.
It had an obvious function — it could seal the target and keep them in their original state.
Be it Daoists or Buddhists, they often used such seals to release the dead.
He never thought that he would have to use this sealing technique …
He shook his head in self-mockery. Look at these disciples of his. How capable they were. They were like cockroaches that couldn't be killed. They even thought of ways to kill their masters.
Reality is full of drama and surprises.
There was no such thing as a smooth journey on the path of cultivation.
How could a path of cultivation without bloodshed be considered a path?
Golden runes slowly landed on Si Wuya's body.
The 'seal' characters gathered together, forming an even larger seal that covered him from head to toe.
At this moment, Si Wuya's body buzzed.
Lu Zhou looked over and saw a green light shining in Si Wuya's dantian's sea of Qi.
"The seed of Great Void …"
When people die, seeds also represent destruction.
He remembered giving Si Wuya the Great Void Seed.
Si Wuya asked, "Master, what's this?"
"It's just a medicinal pill. If I tell you to eat it, just eat it. What's with all the nonsense?"
"Poison?"
"If I wanted to torture you, would I need to use such despicable methods? After taking the pill, get out of here. You will be grounded for a month until your Dantian stabilizes. If you can't do it, don't ever come out! "
A strict teacher produces a brilliant student?
Or too much abuse?
It was unbearable to recall the past.
Lu Zhou clenched his fist.
The Great Void Seed was pushed back into the Dantian's Sea of Qi by the seal, and there was no more movement.
The Seal Rune Seal undulated.
"Too much Death Qi?"
Lu Zhou cleared his mind of distracting thoughts and focused on pushing out the scripts.
A sealing technique that could unleash the power of an Eight-leaf cultivator was only this weak when used by a grand Taoist?
Something didn't feel right.
"Seal!"
Xiao Chen shouted, and two huge sealing characters containing powerful Essence gathered in front of him, quickly blocking all the deathly Qi in front of him.
What surprised him was that the Death Qi was getting stronger and stronger, and it didn't seem like it would stop at all.
Does the Great Void Seed have such a side effect?
Lu Zhou used the power of heaven.
The power of the Heavenly Form erupted, forming many lotus flowers.
Perhaps it was because he had been in the Resurrection Scroll for too long that his consciousness was not very clear.
The lotus flowers flickered in and out of existence.
The scenery in the room kept changing. The mist, the forest, the mountains, the rivers, the land, the Endless Ocean, the underwater world, and a bright light in the endless darkness, the merit stone.
He saw the scripts on the merit stone floating up one by one.
The shining golden scripts were like glowing butterflies that illuminated the darkness as they shot forward.
Lu Zhou focused his mind and circulated his dantian.
His consciousness cleared.
When he returned to the room, he saw the shining golden scripts entering Si Wuya's body.
The death Qi was instantly dispersed by the scripts as well.
"What's going on?"
The Seal Rune Seal was complete.
Lu Zhou looked at his palms. There was nothing out of the ordinary. Everything was normal.
"This Dao Lecture Canon is strange … No wonder the people call it the Fiend God."
He had a feeling that the Dao Lecture Canon hid a huge secret and many incomprehensible powers.
He felt as if his body had become a little stiff.
He instinctively looked at his remaining life.
He frowned slightly.
"I've lost 1,000 years of life?"
He had stayed in the eastern pavilion with the Life Suppressing Pillar for seven days. 1,000 times that was 7,000 days.
Lu Zhou was puzzled. He was not in the mood to think about the reason behind this.
Whether it was the Dao Lecture Canon, the merit stone, or the most primitive sealing method, none of them could bring Si Wuya back from the dead.
What was 1,000 years worth of time?
Si Wuya's complexion gradually stabilized. The death Qi was gone.
Lu Zhou sighed again.
He shook his head. He seemed to have aged a lot. He turned around and walked out of the room.
The members of the Evil Sky Pavilion were waiting outside the southern pavilion.
"Master."
Lu Zhou's expression remained the same. His gaze was the same as before.
He swept his gaze across the others. After a long time, he said coldly, "Give them an extravagant burial."
"…"
The one with the greatest reaction was none other than Yu Zhenghai. He staggered backward. His face was ghastly pale as though he had lost half his life.
The four Elders lowered their heads and turned around one after another ….
The night breeze blew, and the withered leaves fell.
…
Three days later.
The members of the Evil Sky Pavilion were in low spirits.
The four elders and the Protectors sighed outside the southern pavilion.
Pan Zhong walked over from afar. He shook his head. "Mister First and Mister Second haven't come out for three days. They're making coffins in the northern pavilion. They didn't say a word during the entire time."
Pan Litian sighed and said, "Let's not disturb them at a time like this."
Zhou Jifeng asked, "What do you plan to do next?"
"Mister First said that Mister Seventh's dream is to return to the ocean after his death. I think tomorrow …" Pan Zhong could not continue. He waved his fist.
Zuo Yushu said, "I've never seen big brother like this. He's been in the eastern pavilion for the past three days. He hasn't moved at all. It doesn't seem like he's cultivating. Sigh. "
"A master is like a father. How can he be heartless? Even those two little girls haven't come out for a few days now. " Pan Litian tried to ease the atmosphere and said, "Without them making a fuss, I feel like something's missing."
"Let's not inform Mister Third, Mister Fifth, and Mister Eighth about this for now. We don't want to affect their emotions."
The others nodded.
"Shouldn't we inform our brothers in the Darknet as well?"
"They're brothers who have gone through life and death with them. Inform them."
"Understood."
News of this quickly spread to the Darknet on Yellow Peak Mountain.
…
Another day passed.
In the eastern pavilion.
Ye Tianxin appeared outside the eastern pavilion and said dejectedly, "Master, everything's ready."
"Go ahead. I'd like to be alone." Lu Zhou's eyes were still closed.
"Understood."
The members of the Evil Sky Pavilion gathered outside the southern pavilion.
They looked at the black coffin and the runes carved on it.
This was not going to be a good day.
It was more uninteresting than ever before.
"Lift the coffin."
"There's no need for that. All of you can stay." Yu Zhenghai was expressionless as he placed his palm on the coffin.
Yu Shangrong turned around and flew into the distance.
He no longer cared about this matter.
Meanwhile, the others retreated.
"Seventh Junior Brother likes peace and quiet. He should be happy with everything …" Yu Zhenghai looked around. He circulated his energy through his palm and grinned. "Let's go!"
Yu Zhenghai flew out of the Evil Sky Pavilion with the coffin.
Mingshi Yin, Ye Tianxin, Little Yuan 'er, Conch, Pan Zhong, Zhou Jifeng, Leng Luo, Hua Wudao, Pan Litian, Zuo Yushu, Meng Changdong, Shen Xi, Li Xiaomo, Yan Zhenluo, Lu Li, the four Kong brothers, Qin Naihe, Yuan Lang, the 49 Swords, and the female cultivators of the Evil Sky Pavilion bowed deeply at the sky.
…
The Endless Ocean.
The calm surface of the ocean did not seem like a place where the imbalance had worsened.
Yu Zhenghai pointed at the ocean. He looked at the coffin and said, "I remember you saying that if misfortune were to befall you one day, you'd return to the ocean …"
He smiled and continued to say, "There are many oceanic beasts in the ocean.
"There are many sea beasts in the sea. Why don't you change your mind?"
Yu Zhenghai patted the coffin.
The coffin was silent. No one answered him.
"The oceanic beasts don't care about family and friends. They'll tear you to pieces. The coffin and master's sealing technique won't be able to protect you for long. "
The surface of the ocean was calm.
Yu Zhenghai hovered for a long time. His smile disappeared as he said, "I'm useless, senior brother."
"You can resurrect me, but I can't resurrect you."
Yu Zhenghai closed his eyes.
He placed his palm horizontally on his right side with his palm facing down.
The coffin was surrounded by his energy seals as it hovered on the surface of the ocean.
He maintained this posture for a day and a night.
Night fell, and the sky brightened again. Then, night fell.
When his arms were numb, and he could not stop trembling, Yu Zhenghai said, "The water of the Endless Ocean is cold. If you feel cold, remember to come back."
Splash!
The coffin sank into the ocean.
The runes lit up one after another.
Bubbles slowly emerged from the coffin.
The coffin continued to fall and was soon swallowed by the seawater.
In the eastern pavilion.
Lu Zhou opened his eyes.
There was a flash of movement.
He appeared above the Evil Sky Pavilion.
Yu Shangrong, who had been standing in the wind for a long time, suddenly turned around. He looked at the sky in confusion. He was slightly shocked. "Master?"
Swoosh!
Lu Zhou vanished.
He did not go to the Endless Ocean.
Instead, he appeared on the runic tunnel in the forest. There was a flash of light.
…
Late at night.
South Mountain Dojo.
Qin Renyue was meditating when a deep voice rang in his ears.
"Perfected Qin, let me borrow your tunnel."
Qin Renyue was shocked. "Brother Lu?"
He followed the shadow and flew towards the direction of the sound.
He could sense a hint of anger in Lu Zhou's voice. It was anger that was suppressed by his strong rationality.
When Qin Renyue saw Lu Zhou hovering in the air, he asked, "Where are you going, Brother Lu?"
"In the corner."
"The unknown lands? Now? "Qin Renyue was baffled. He did not know what was happening.
"Now," Lu Zhou said.
However, when he saw Lu Zhou's solemn expression and determined attitude, he did not seem to be joking. Qin Renyue said, "Alright, I'll go with you."
The two of them moved swiftly and entered the unknown lands through the Qin clan's runic tunnel.
After another two hours, they arrived at the corner.
The Heavenly Revelation Pillar in the corner towered between the heavens and the earth as though it would never crumble.
When night fell, the corner looked similar to the world of the Nine Lotus.
The black mist shrouded the sky. Just like before, nothing could be seen apart from the mysteries.
Qin Renyue pointed at the Heavenly Revelation Pillar in the corner and said, "This is the corner."
He turned to look at Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou's expression remained the same.
He looked at the sky and said, "Today, I'll pierce the heavens!"
Whoosh!
Lu Zhou shot into the sky at lightning speed.
Qin Renyue turned pale with fright. He raised his hand and said, "Brother Lu!"
Unfortunately, Lu Zhou would not listen to his advice at this moment.
Even Chen Fu was not able to make Lu Zhou act so crazily.
Qin Renyue appeared anxious as he flew into the sky. He hastily shouted, "You mustn't! The Nine-clawed Black Centipede is hidden in the mist in the corner. It's extremely powerful!"
Lu Zhou did not even look back as he flew into the black mist.
Qin Renyue stopped.
He hovered under the mist.
His cultivation base was not at the stage where he could fight the heavens. This was the best he could do.
If he took another step forward, he might be beyond redemption.
"Why?" Qin Renyue was puzzled.
He looked at the mist worriedly.
He sensed the changes in his surroundings. At the same time, he flew around the bottom of the mist in an attempt to find Lu Zhou.
Alas, he could not hear anything.
…
Inside the black mist.
Lu Zhou shot into the sky.
He did not know how long he had been flying before he felt the pressure.
This familiar feeling told him that he had entered the range of the Nine-clawed Black Centipede.
"Come out!"
A loud shout resounded in the surroundings.
The sound wave that was imbued with the power of the heavens spread in all directions like a clap of thunder.
Qin Renyue looked up. When he heard the voice in the sky, he exclaimed in shock, "Brother Lu!"
Unfortunately, his voice could not penetrate the thick mist and the peculiar and chaotic environment.
Soon after, he heard a loud panting sound.
"Nine-clawed Black Centipede?!" Qin Renyue's hair stood on end as he descended at once.
Meanwhile.
Lu Zhou finally sensed the huge wings in the darkness.
When he saw the Nine-clawed Black Centipede's wings coming at him like a black blade that could split the heavens, Lu Zhou immediately crushed three Deadly Strike Cards.
"I'll take your life!"
Three palm seals that resembled three dazzling energy blades appeared side by side. They spanned tens of thousands of feet as they descended from the sky.
Bam!
When the black wings collided with the palm seals, they were mercilessly crushed.
A shrill cry resounded in the air.
A heart-wrenching cry rang out from the mist.
Boom!
Boom!
Three muffled sounds reverberated in the skies like tsunamis.
Qin Renyue was stunned.
He kept looking at the black mist from below, but he could not see anything. All he could hear were the thunderous sounds of collision and screams.
The black wings turned around and flew away.
"Freeze!"
Lu Zhou released all the power in the Hourglass of Time in one go.
Blue electric arcs appeared in the air above the black mist. The huge figure was frozen in place.
Lu Zhou's figure flickered and appeared above the Nine-clawed Black Centipede. He launched two more palm seals!
His rage made him forget about the merit points he gained and lost.
His killing intent made him attack without hesitation.
The two Expansive Heavenly Energy palm seals parted the mist and struck the Nine-clawed Black Centipede.
The wretched cry lasted for 15 minutes. It almost pierced the eardrums.
Qin Renyue's eyes widened as he stared in the direction of the sound. He muttered to himself, "Brother Lu, you mustn't let anything happen to you!"
Then, he saw a Nine-clawed Black Centipede that was 20,000 feet long with its wings folded. It shone with a black light as it broke through the mist and descended from the sky.
Boom!
The Nine-clawed Black Centipede landed on the ground in the corner.
Lu Zhou moved swiftly from above. He broke through the mist as well and hovered below it. His eyes were sharp as he looked down at the Nine-clawed Black Centipede with his hands on his back.
