Lu Zhou was satisfied with his arrangements. He nodded and looked at Kong Wen as he asked, "What other Heavenly Opening sites are there?"
Kong Wen bowed.
"There's also Xie Qia, Wu Tan, Zhi Wu, Da Yuan Xian … Among the Twelve Earthly Branches, there's no place for Tian Qi in Qiu Tun or Jiang Mao. The Great Abyss Pillar is located in the central area, and it is also the largest of the ten pillars. "
Duanmudian was slightly surprised as he said, "You've completed the Six Heavenly Openings and obtained the acknowledgement?"
"That's right," Lu Zhou admitted.
Duanmu Dian said with a smile, "Are you joking?"
"Do I look like I'm joking?" Lu Zhou's expression was solemn. He did not seem to be joking at all.
"…"
When Lu Zhou saw that he was still skeptical, he pointed at Duanmu Sheng and said, "Duanmu Sheng is one of them."
Duanmu Dian was stunned when he heard this, and then he said with great joy, "Really?"
With a flash, he appeared in front of Duanmu Sheng. He released his aura, and a peculiar energy swirled around Duanmu Sheng.
Duanmu Sheng felt the power invading his Extraordinary Eight Meridians. He instinctively circulated his Primal Qi to resist it.
"Don't move," Duanmudian said.
It was not that Duanmu Sheng did not want to move, but he could not move at all. The cultivation base of a Great Saint was not something he could compare to. He could only watch helplessly as the unique energy surrounded him.
After the inspection, Duanmudian took a step back with a look of surprise flashing in his eyes. He said, "Old Lu, it's not as simple as getting the approval of Tianqi."
"You're right. Duanmu Sheng possesses a Great Void Seed," Lu Zhou said calmly.
Duanmu Dian laughed heartily. He stepped forward and patted Duanmu Sheng's shoulder as he said, "Good, good … Good … The Duanmu Clan finally has a paragon! You, are the future supreme being! "
Although the Evil Sky Pavilion knew that Duanmu Sheng possessed the Great Void Seed, when Duanmu Dian mentioned Duanmu Sheng's title as a future supreme being, an expression of envy could still be seen on his face.
However, he was more used to it.
Duanmudian returned to Lu Zhou. He suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked, "Old Lu, where did you get this Great Void Seed?"
"It's just luck. It's not worth mentioning," Lu Zhou said.
"No matter what, you've done Duanmu Sheng a great favor by bestowing such a valuable item to him. I will remember this favor. "
Duanmu Dian had been alone all his life. Now that he had a Duanmu clansman with the same bloodline, he was no different from family.
"Now is the time for you to return the favor." Lu Zhou walked out of the courtyard. "Lead the way."
Although Duanmu Dian objected to this matter, he could only nod after considering the situation and what he said. "Alright. Come with me. "
His figure flashed.
They went outside.
"Old Lu, can you let Lu Wu guard this place for a while?" After Duanmu Dian learned that Lu Wu had joined the Evil Sky Pavilion as well, it was only natural for him to seek Lu Wu's opinion.
Lu Zhou said, "I have no objections, but … you must ensure its safety."
"Of course. I care about it more than you do!" Duanmu Dian was not stingy at all. He took out a jade talisman and tossed it over.
Lu Wu hid it in his mouth.
It was obvious that this was not the first time they had cooperated like this.
Duanmudian said, "If you encounter danger, bite it to pieces."
Lu Wu nodded.
Duanmu Dian turned around and walked toward the nearby mountains. Each step he took covered a thousand feet.
The others hurried over. Soon after, they arrived at a secluded spot.
"Is this a tunnel that leads to the other Heavenly Openings?" Zhao Hongfu was the first to rush over. She examined it carefully. The more she looked at it, the more shocked she became.
"That's right."
Duanmu Dian said, "To ensure the safety of the ten Pillars of Heavenly Openings, the Great Void has set up a sufficient number of tunnels near each of the Pillars of Heavenly Openings."
"This rune tunnel is more intricate and powerful than any I've seen before." Zhao Hongfu touched the veins on the surface. She clicked her tongue in wonder. She was fascinated as she looked at it.
A tunnel that a genius rune master mentioned would not be an ordinary one.
Duanmu Dian laughed and said, "This is the Great Void's tunnel. The carvings are all experts. Since the Heavenly Openings are so important, it's only natural that the person who left this tunnel is the best rune master in the Great Void. I didn't expect you to know about these things as well. "
Lu Li said, "This is the youngest genius rune master in the Evil Sky Pavilion. Although she's just passed the first life trial, she hasn't been learning runes for long."
Duanmu Dian nodded and asked, "Can you form a Formation on the spot?"
Zhao Hongfu asked, "On the spot?"
"Rune masters draw Formations with their brushes. When a rune master reaches a certain realm, they'll be able to draw Formations with ease and use them to increase their combat strength," Duanmu Dian said.
"Uh …"
Zhao Hongfu said awkwardly, "I only know how to carve ordinary Formations and rune tunnels."
"Mastering a rune tunnel to the peak is more terrifying than mastering a great law," Duanmu Dian said.
Zhao Hongfu exclaimed in shock, "Can you do it that quickly?"
"Of course." Duanmu Dian looked at the skies and said, "There are rune masters in the Great Void who can fly freely between the heavens and the earth. They can go wherever they want. That's what it means to live a carefree life."
"Doesn't that mean they're invincible under the heavens?" Zhao Hongfu was overwhelmed with emotions when she heard this.
"That's not true." Duanmu Dian said, "Rune masters aren't strong in terms of combat strength. Not everyone is omnipotent. When a cultivator reaches a certain realm, it's not impossible for them to kill their enemies from a thousand miles away. "
The others nodded.
There were pros and cons to everything.
Zhao Hongfu said, "I'm already very satisfied to be able to travel freely! Thank you for pointing me in the right direction, senior. "
"Without further ado, let's go."
Duanmu Dian's silhouette flickered and appeared on the rune tunnel.
Lu Zhou walked up as well.
Duanmu Dian said, "The rune tunnels in the Great Void can transport 1,000 people at least. There's no need to worry."
When the others found their footing, Duanmu Dian pushed his palm forward. There was a flash of light. The others felt their vision brighten as though they had entered a transparent tunnel. In less than the time it took to finish a cup of tea, they appeared in an unfamiliar forest.
Duanmu Dian left the tunnel and hovered in the air.
Lu Zhou led the others and flew up.
From their vantage point, they could see the Heavenly Awakening Pillar towering in the sky.
"That's fast," Zhao Hongfu praised.
Duanmu Dian said, "That's Hejia Heavenly Awakening. He's guarding this place. He's an expert who's more powerful than me. However, I'm on friendly terms with him. When we get there, I'll speak. Don't interrupt. "
He dashed forward.
Clearly, this was not his first time here. He knew the environment well. He navigated the area with ease as he bypassed the traps and Formations.
When the beasts saw him, they scurried away. They had no intention of fighting him.
They smoothly landed on a mountain range that wasn't too wide. Above the mountain range, there was a single-plank bridge that was thousands of feet long.
The wooden bridge led to the Heavenly Awakening Pillar.
The bottom was shrouded in clouds and mist.
Duanmu Dian said, "This is where Hejia Heavenly Awakening is."
The others were amazed.
Lu Zhou stood with his hands on his back. He looked at the scenery around him and asked, "Why don't we go down?"
"It's filled with dangerous traps. Even a Perfected One would find it difficult to get close."
At this point, Duanmu Dian grumbled, "I wonder how the person who stole the Great Void Seed did it. I still don't know."
"Perhaps, his cultivation base is extraordinary," Lu Zhou said.
"Impossible. My friend's name is Yan Mohui. He's a true Dao Saint. He's been guarding the Nine Lotus for many years. If a Dao Saint was born in the Nine Lotus, the Impartial Scale would've sent out a warning," Duanmu Dian said.
Lu Zhou could not be bothered to reply.
At this moment, a deep and lazy voice rang from the clouds. "What brings you here?"
Duanmu Dian said with a smile, "I'm bored alone, so I came to talk to you, Brother Yan."
"It's not like you don't know the rules of the Great Void. Please return," the voice said.
"I'm already here. If I return now, I'll have come in vain," Duanmu Dian said, "Apart from that, I have a personal request."
A figure appeared from the clouds and mist.
The figure hovered in the clouds and mist with his hair fluttering in the wind. He looked like a lunatic with a gaze as sharp as a blade. The members of the Evil Sky Pavilion shuddered.
"You brought someone with you?" the figure asked.
"Brother Yan, they're my friends. When I entered the Great Void back then, I contacted them. Now that I've finally met them, I thought I'd bring them along to broaden their horizons, "Duanmu Dian said.
Yan Mohui was a stubborn fellow. He was inflexible when it came to doing things. Once he made up his mind, it was difficult for him to change his mind.
Duanmu Dian knew this very well. Hence, he took the initiative and said, "They only want to see the Heavenly Awakening. I hope you'll make an exception for them, Brother Yan."
If Yan Mohui was the first to voice his objection, things would be difficult.
As expected, a hesitant expression appeared on Yan Mohui's face as he said, "The Great Void has issued a strict order not long ago that nobody is allowed to come close. If this were before, I would've agreed to it. However, it's a little difficult now. "
Duanmu Dian said, "The Great Void is afraid that humans will destroy the Heavenly Awakening and steal the Great Void Seed. Now that an elite like you is guarding it and I'm here, who would dare to touch the Heavenly Awakening? Moreover, I guarantee you that they won't touch anything inside the Heavenly Awakening. "
Yan Mohui looked at the others.
He frowned slightly when he sensed their auras. "There are many Perfected Ones here."
Every time a Perfected One appeared in the Nine Lotus Sect, the Great Void would send someone to investigate.
There were only four Perfected Ones in the vast Green Lotus Sect. Now that there were so many Perfected Ones, he was slightly wary.
"Forget it. There are too many of them. It's inevitable that something might go wrong." Yan Mohui cupped his fists at Duanmu Dian. "Please leave."
"…"
This meant that there was nothing to talk about.
Lu Zhou said, "Wait."
Unexpectedly, Yan Mohui completely ignored Lu Zhou.
Perhaps, he did not think much of Duanmu Dian's friend at all. He turned around indifferently and floated toward the clouds.
Lu Zhou snorted. "So, this is your friend?"
"Yes."
"He doesn't live up to his reputation," Lu Zhou said.
"…"
Yan Mohui heard these words.
Swoosh.
Yan Mohui appeared before the others in just a blink of an eye. He was only about ten meters away from them. A cold gleam appeared in his eyes as he said, "What did you say?"
"Brother Yan, this is a misunderstanding. I was just joking. Don't take it seriously!" Duanmu Dian said.
Lu Zhou ignored Duanmu Dian's words of persuasion. Instead, he said indifferently, "I said that you don't live up to your reputation."
"Since you're Brother Duanmu's friend, I'll give you a chance to speak. If you can't give me a perfect explanation, you'll have to bear the consequences, "Yan Mohui said.
"Although you're a Dao Saint, you're only using the Great Void's influence to intimidate others. At the end of the day, you have to accept whatever the Great Void says as the truth and dare not disobey it. Am I right? "
When Lu Zhou saw Yan Mohui was burning with rage, he added, "The angrier you are, the more it proves that I'm telling the truth."
Yan Mohui was at a loss for words.
After giving it some thought, he said, "Under the heavens, everyone has to listen to the Great Void. I'm not the only one."
"That's not true."
Lu Zhou shook his head. He placed his hands on his back and looked at the mist in the sky. "I won't listen to them."
"?" Yan Mohui frowned.
Yan Mohui's first reaction was that this person was a lunatic.
Lu Zhou said, "The Great Void doesn't allow others to get close to Tian Qi, but I want to."
The atmosphere suddenly became a little tense.
Yan Mohui stared at Lu Zhou. As he sized Lu Zhou up, he tried to gauge Lu Zhou's cultivation base. Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, he could not gauge Lu Zhou's cultivation base.
Lu Zhou suddenly said, "You're trying to sense my cultivation base?"
Yan Mohui looked away and said, "You're not as simple as you seem."
"It's not worth mentioning," Lu Zhou said indifferently.
"Excessive arrogance will only harm you. The Great Void's power far exceeds your imagination, "Yan Mohui said.
Duanmu Dian had been looking for an opportunity to mediate the situation, but he discovered he could not get a word in.
Lu Zhou continued to say, "What does the Great Void's power have to do with me? No matter what happens in the future, I won't associate myself with the Great Void. "
"Aren't you afraid that the Great Void will deal with you?" Yan Mohui frowned.
"Afraid?" Lu Zhou chuckled in a low voice. "If I were afraid, I wouldn't be here."
Yan Mohui was slightly taken aback.
Duanmu Dian seized the opportunity to say, "That's how my friend is. He refused to join the Great Void and went to the Endless Ocean. He only returned when he heard that the imbalance was worsening. "
Yan Mohui stared at Lu Zhou.
Nobody knew what he was thinking about. He stared at Lu Zhou for 15 minutes.
Many images appeared in his mind.
About the skies, about freedom, about the future …
Over the years, there were not many things that Yan Mohui could aspire to.
The heavens and earth were vast. Everyone could come and go as they pleased. They could go where they pleased and do what they pleased. Yan Mohui was the only one who wanted to spend his life negotiating with Tian Qi.
…
Lu Zhou was not afraid at all. He looked at Yan Mohui calmly.
Finally, Yan Mohui broke the silence. He cupped his fists at Lu Zhou and said, "Please!"
Duanmu Dian. "???"
'That's it?'
Duanmu Dian was puzzled.
As Yan Mohui's friend, Yan Mohui could not even talk about their relationship. On the other hand, Lu Zhou only needed to argue with Yan Mohui. He found this hard to understand.
Yan Mohui added, "There aren't many people I admire in my life. What he admired the most was a person with such pride. Although I'm a Dao Saint, I'm someone who will bow and scowl. I admit that I'm not as good as you! "
"…" Duanmu Dian was speechless.
Lu Zhou said, "I won't hold back then."
Although Yan Mohui had agreed to let them enter Tian Qi, it did not mean that he had good intentions.
Lu Zhou stepped into the air and flew forward.
Yan Mohui said, "You're the only one allowed."
Lu Zhou said, "Yu Shangrong, Ye Tianxin, and Little Yuan 'er."
The three disciples bowed in unison and said, "Yes, master."
"Follow me. The rest of you, wait here." Lu Zhou did not turn around. Instead, he looked at Yan Mohui and asked, "How about the four of you?"
Yan Mohui's expression turned cold as he looked at them. He placed his hands on his back and said nothing.
Duanmudian said, "Show me some respect. If anything happens, blame it on me."
Yan Mohui said, "I really don't understand you lot. What's there to see? I'll only give you 15 minutes. During this time, pretend that we never met. "
Then, he vanished in a flash.
Lu Zhou and Duanmudian led the way as they flew forward.
They flew across the 10,000 feet bridge.
Yu Shangrong, Ye Tianxin, and Little Yuan 'er followed closely behind them.
When they arrived at the center of the bridge, huge logs appeared on both sides of the bridge. The logs were covered in dense veins. It was as though an inescapable net had appeared between heaven and earth.
Duanmudian frowned and said, "Brother Yan, what are you doing?"
There was no reply.
"Brother Yan?"
"I'm not here. Don't ask me."
"…"
Lu Zhou saw the logs coming at him.
He pushed one palm to the left and the other to the right. At the same time, he unleashed his heavenly power palm seals.
The palm seals shook the heavens and earth and tore the void apart. Boom!
The logs were sent flying.
With this strike, the logs swung like a swing. The force of the impact was even more powerful than before!
Duanmudian waved his arm and said, "This is a Heaven Lock Formation. It's connected to the power of heaven and earth. Don't even think about breaking the Formation! Come with me! "
The others sped forward. In front of the bridge, a log that was even more sturdy than the others came at them.
Duanmudian lowered his body and dodged the log.
Yu Shangrong, Little Yuan 'er, and Ye Tianxin dodged as well.
However, Lu Zhou was left alone. He had to face four or five logs.
"Old Lu!" Duanmudian shouted.
Lu Zhou instantly launched five palm seals with lightning scripts.
"Thunderblast."
The Thunder Seals in his palms shone with a dazzling golden radiance.
They struck five logs.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
One of the bolts of lightning actually shattered the log into pieces!
Smack!
Yan Mohui's voice was filled with shock. "Eh?"
Lu Zhou teleported ahead and said, "Follow me."
"Uh …" Duanmudian turned to look at the logs. Then, he looked at Lu Zhou and the others who had already entered the Heavenly Opening. He said, "Brother Yan, didn't you say you couldn't break this log's Heaven Lock Formation?"
"…"
The clouds were silent. There was no reply.
"Brother Yan?"
