"What's the big deal? There are many people in the world who want to curry favor with my master. Perhaps White Emperor heard of my master's name somewhere, and that's why he did it," Little Yuan 'er said.
Duanmu Dian was speechless. "Ignorant girl, do you know who Emperor Bai is?"
When Little Yuan 'er saw that Duanmu Dian was angry, she said, "I know he must be very powerful, but my master is also very powerful."
"…"
Diehard fan, there's no escape.
Duanmudian said, "The White Emperor is one of the five emperors. His real name is Bai Zhaoju and he was a god before the fission era. He was a supreme renowned throughout the world and once ventured into the Great Maelstrom alone to investigate the origin of the sea beasts."
He was looking at Lu Zhou as he spoke.
His gaze seemed to be saying: Old Lu, how could I not know what you look like?
Lu Tiantong's reputation was extraordinary, but it was only limited to the Black Lotus Sect. Compared to the Black Lotus Sect, the Ninelotus Sect, and even the Unknown Lands, they were far too vast. In addition, the Boundless Ocean was not something that humans could reach.
"Oh," Little Yuan 'er said. He's so powerful. "
"Of course."
After saying these.
The cultivator on the Earth Silk laughed and said, "I thought you didn't know who the White Emperor was. Since you know, then you should know his status. You can leave now. "
Lu Zhou turned to look at the earth thread and asked, "Are you the guardian of this place?"
"I am just a Beast Tamer living in an unknown land."
He blinked at him and said, "Are you interested in joining the Evil Sky Pavilion? Follow my master. "
The beastmaster shook his head and refused: "Thank you for your kind intentions, but I will guard this place for the rest of my life with Nightmare Tianqi."
"Who are you working for?" Lu Zhou asked.
The beast tamer revealed a smile and said, "None of that is important."
He shook his head and sighed as he said, "You've missed a great opportunity."
The Animal Controller said, "Everybody, please."
He made a gesture of invitation.
Lu Zhou leaped onto Whitzard's back and led the others back to the runes' tunnel.
Perhaps, it was due to his state of mind, ever since he became a Saint, Lu Zhou had become indifferent to these matters.
Duanmudian sighed and said, "No matter who this Beastmaster works for, he must be an expert to be able to guard this place. This expert was probably connected to Emperor Bai in many ways. Old Lu … I'm a little jealous of your luck. "
"Luck?" Lu Zhou frowned slightly.
Duanmu Dian corrected, "Strength, strength …"
After Zhao Hongfu was done carving the runes, Lu Zhou led the others into the runes.
…
Nightmare Beach Apocalypse.
In the dusky sky, the huge body surged back and forth with the fog.
A wave-like silhouette appeared in front of Tian Qi.
Amidst the dense fog, two bright moons appeared, illuminating the earth.
"It's you?" Meng Zhang asked.
"This Emperor is just passing by. I'm here to have a chat with you." The wave-like void figure said.
"What a good 'passing by'." Meng Zhang snorted, "Do you think this Lord is stupid?"
The water wave phantom laughed and said: "You protect Tian Qi for me, so how could I look down on you?"
As soon as he finished speaking.
A huge bolt of lightning tore through the fog in the sky.
The bolt of lightning was hundreds of feet in diameter, and its length was unknown.
The water wave phantom waved its sleeve and slanted 15 degrees upward. A halo appeared and blocked the bolt of lightning. Then, it waved its sleeve and returned. The bolt of lightning vanished from the world.
"What a temper." The water wave phantom was not angry.
Meng Zhang said in a deep voice, "I protect Tian Qi for the world, but not for you."
"It's the same."
The water wave phantom said.
"It's not the same."
"…"
The water wave phantom did not know why Meng Zhang was conflicted about this. It could not help but fall silent. Instead, it said, "I have a question."
Meng Zhang chuckled in a low voice. "The great Master of the Holy Temple has a favor to ask of me?"
The water wave phantom did not intend to argue. Instead, it asked, "Have any special cultivators approached Nightmare Beach's Tian Qi recently?"
"With me guarding Nightmare Beach, who can approach it?" Meng Zhang said.
"Are you sure?"
"If you don't believe me, why are you asking?" Meng Zhang said disapprovingly.
The water wave phantom did not say anything. Its shadow faded away and vanished.
It did not bid farewell or greet Meng Zhang. It left just like that.
Meng Zhang could not be bothered with it. He closed his eyes in satisfaction.
…
Meanwhile.
Towering ancient trees that were 1,000 feet tall could be seen at the top of the forest as far as the eye could see.
Colossal creatures would pass through the forest from time to time.
There were also colossal beasts flying and circling in the sky.
"Big Abyss Offering is the core of the unknown lands. It corresponds to 'man's will'. The original meaning is that man's will can triumph over the heavens. Humans and beasts stubbornly survive on this land. They fight against the heavens, the earth, and their lives, "Duanmudian said as he pointed at the forest before them.
Everyone in the Evil Sky Pavilion was in awe.
Lu Zhou asked, "Who's guarding Big Abyss Offering?"
Duanmudian shook his head and said, "Nobody knows. This forest is only a small part of Big Abyss Offering. There's no way to build a rune tunnel further in. We'll have to fly. Big Abyss Offering is vast and rich with resources. There are many powerful beasts here. It's harder than ascending to the heavens to get to the core. "
This only served to accentuate Ji Tiandao's ingenuity. He did not rely on his cultivation base to snatch the ten seeds from the ten Heavenly Awakenings.
Duanmudian continued to say, "Even Meng Zhang and the White Emperor are here. It's highly likely that the guardian of Big Abyss Offering is an ancient Holy Beast. This is their territory. Perhaps, you don't even have the right to see the Holy Beast. "
Grunt, grunt … Ying Zhao nodded.
Conch said, "Ying Zhao agrees with Senior Duanmu."
Duanmudian turned to look at Ying Zhao and said, "What a clever beast. Not bad, not bad."
Lu Zhou asked, "Have you been to Big Abyss Offering before?"
Duanmudian said, "I've been here once when I received the mission to guard the Heavenly Awakenings. However, I didn't go deep into the core. Alright, this is as far as I can take you. Before I leave, I'd like to give you a piece of advice. Don't persist when it's time to give up. "
He produced three jade talismans and handed them to Lu Zhou as he said, "These three jade talismans will teleport you to Dun Ni's Heavenly Awakening."
Lu Zhou put them away and said, "I know what I'm doing."
Duanmudian moved to Duanmu Sheng's side and said in a hushed voice, "Kid, if you're afraid, come with me. Stay in Dun Ni. I can protect you."
Duanmu Sheng said, "The Duanmu Clan never retreats. Being afraid of death isn't the Duanmu Clan's style."
Duanmu Dian was taken aback. Then, he laughed. He patted Duanmu Sheng's shoulder and said, "As expected of a genius of the Duanmu Clan."
Duanmu Sheng remained silent.
Duanmu Dian patted Duanmu Sheng's shoulder and asked again, "Aren't you afraid?"
"Ever since I joined the Evil Sky Pavilion, I've never been afraid," Duanmu Sheng said.
"Good … good, good," Duanmu Dian said repeatedly. Then, he sighed. "Actually, I'm not afraid. If I had a choice, I'd rather stay. "
Upon hearing this, Duanmu Sheng looked up at him.
He thought Duanmu Sheng would scoff at his words. To his surprise, Duanmu Sheng's mind raced for a moment before he said, "I understand. The bigger picture is more important."
It would be a good idea to have Duanmu Dian as a spy in the Great Void.
There was no need for him to be stubborn and stubborn.
Something stirred in Duanmu Dian when he heard this.
He said to the others, "Take care."
"Take care, senior."
The others bowed.
"Ding! One of your disciples, Duanmu Sheng, has met the requirements to graduate. Reward: 10,000 merit points."
"Will you graduate?"
[I will provide more rewards for Master after I finish my apprenticeship and enter the world.]
“？”
At this moment, Little Yuan 'er and Conch were the only ones among the ten Evil Sky Pavilion disciples who had not graduated.
Little Yuan 'er and Conch had long since passed the one-year limit. They could graduate at any time.
However, Lu Zhou did not do so.
100 years had passed. His disciples were no longer young.
Perhaps, it was time for them to graduate.
He gave it some thought before he said, "Graduate."
"Ding! Your disciple, Duanmu Sheng, has successfully graduated."
"Reward: Random Card. Use this card and you'll be rewarded with a rare item."
"After Duanmu Sheng graduates, he's qualified to establish a sect and preach. He can only have three grand-disciples."
"Disciplining Duanmu Sheng will no longer be rewarded with merit points."
Lu Zhou did not use the Random Card. Instead, he ordered, "Let's continue on our way!"
The environment here was not ideal. It was not suitable for them to stay.
The members of the Evil Sky Pavilion traveled through the forest toward Big Abyss.
Duanmu Dian returned to the runes tunnel.
There was a flash of light.
In less than 15 minutes, Duanmu Dian was back at Dun Ei.
Duanmu Dian was in a good mood. He flew leisurely along the way. When he returned to the small courtyard near Dun Ei, he saw someone sitting on a wooden armchair in the courtyard.
Something stirred in him.
He looked at the person and widened his eyes. "Temple Master?!"
The wave-like figure on the wooden armchair seemed to be enjoying the rocking of the armchair as well.
He closed his eyes slightly and imitated Duanmu Dian's posture. He was enjoying himself.
He continued rocking back and forth.
He did not say anything nor did he stand up.
Duanmu Dian walked up to the figure. He fell to one knee and said, "I didn't know you were coming, Temple Master. Forgive me for not coming out to greet you."
The temple master's silhouette materialized. He wore a long yellow robe and a crown on his head. His body shone with a holy radiance.
After what seemed like hours, the temple master spoke. His voice was gentle and slow as he said, "You seem to have been gone for a long time."
"I've regained my lost mount. I was in a good mood so I went to hunt for food on South Mountain. Alas, I returned empty-handed," Duanmu Dian said.
"Mhm."
The temple master opened his eyes and slowly stood up from the armchair. He said, "Stand up and talk."
"Dun Xing's Tianqi has been peaceful. What orders do you have for me?" Duanmu Dian asked.
The temple master walked to the side of the small building with his hands behind his back. He looked at the Tianqi Pillar in the distance and said, "How long have you been in the Great Void?"
"About 20,000 years," Duanmu Dian replied.
"Time flies."
The temple master sighed. "What's your birth matrix now?"
Duanmu Dian answered honestly, "28."
"You've lived for 170,000 years … You're still young," the temple master said.
"Thank you for your compliment, Temple Master."
The temple master turned around and looked at Duanmu Dian. He asked, "Have any cultivators approached Tianqi recently?"
Duanmu Dian answered, "Yes."
He then added, "I chased them away. A bunch of arrogant cultivators dared to covet Dun Xing's Tianqi. As long as I'm here, no outsider will have a chance to approach Tianqi! "
The temple master looked at Duanmu Dian and nodded slightly.
Then, he turned around and looked out of the courtyard as he said, "Good."
His figure became blurry.
He reverted to his original state of undulating waves.
The holy radiance around his body vanished and was replaced by wave-like veins.
Then, he floated toward the horizon and vanished like a wisp of smoke.
Duanmu Dian sighed in relief.
He turned to look at the armchair. He bent down and touched it. He muttered to himself, "Is it warm?"
His heart skipped a beat. "It's the real body!"
…
In the core of the unknown lands.
The members of the Evil Sky Pavilion flew for five days. They did not see the Tianqi Pillar so they landed in the forest to rest.
At the same time, they wanted to stabilize their cultivation bases.
Inside the forest.
Lu Zhou looked at the others and said, "Your cultivation bases have improved a lot during the 100 years in the Ancient Formation. This is a gift from the Great Abyss. I need to understand your cultivation bases. Yu Zhenghai, you'll be the first. "
Yu Zhenghai bowed and said, "I'm slow-witted. I've just passed 19."
Yu Shangrong's reply was straightforward. "13 leaves."
The cultivation path of severing one's lotus could not be judged with common sense. Lu Zhou nodded and said, "After the Ten-leaf stage, each leaf is equivalent to six Birth Charts."
Duanmu Sheng said, "I'm at 12 leaves."
"You have the power of decay to protect you. You're comparable to a Perfected One. Now that you're acknowledged, you'll improve faster," Lu Zhou said.
Duanmu Sheng was overjoyed to hear his master's praise. "Thank you for the praise, master!"
Mingshi Yin said solemnly, "Master, I have 18 Birth Charts."
Lu Zhou stared at Mingshi Yin intently.
This did not fit his usual style. Hence, he asked again, "Are you sure you only have 18 Birth Charts?"
"Fourth Senior Brother, I have the Demon-revealing Mirror. Just answer me honestly," Little Yuan 'er said.
Mingshi Yin nodded. "I'm telling the truth … Uh, what Demon-revealing Mirror? You're indirectly scolding me, Ninth Junior Sister."
Little Yuan 'er laughed.
Lu Zhou raised his voice. "Be serious."
Mingshi Yin cleared his throat and said, "Same as Eldest Senior Brother, 19 Birth Charts."
Lu Zhou nodded. Mingshi Yin was talented to begin with. On top of that, the effects of the Great Void Seed were better than Eldest and Second Senior Brother's. He was also the first to be acknowledged by Tian Qi. It was only natural for him to catch up after 100 years in the ancient Formation.
Zhao Yue bowed and said, "I'm slow-witted. My cultivation base is at 12 leaves."
"Your cultivation base is far behind. It's not easy for you to catch up in an unknown place. There's no need to belittle yourself. "
"Thank you, master," Zhao Yue said happily.
Ye Tianxin said, "I've just passed 16 Birth Charts."
"You have Cheng Huang's help and the Butterfly Loves Flowers' essence. No one below the Perfected One can defeat you," Lu Zhou said.
"Thank you for the compliment, master," Ye Tianxin said.
Zhu Honggong, Old Eighth, stepped forward and said proudly, "I'm at 12 leaves, but I'm almost at 13 leaves!"
He was waiting for his master's praise.
Lu Zhou said calmly, "Keep it up."
"…"
A 12 leaf was impressive!
Lu Zhou looked at Little Yuan 'er. He asked expectantly, "Yuan' er, what about you?"
After all, she already had 10 Birth Charts before entering the ancient Formation. Her talent of consecutively opening Birth Charts was enviable.
