The others in the Evil Sky Pavilion were looking forward to Little Yuan 'er's cultivation base as well. Throughout the years in the unknown lands, she was the one who improved the most. In the eyes of the others, the ten disciples of the Evil Sky Pavilion were already talented cultivation geniuses, but Little Yuan 'er was an anomaly that surpassed all of them. She was a talent that they could not understand.
Little Yuan 'er answered with a smile, "Master, I already have eighteen natal charts!"
The crowd was in an uproar.
The senior brothers and sisters who were slightly proud just now looked at Little Yuan 'er with incredulous expressions.
Lu Zhou felt the same way.
He thought that it would be pretty good to have 15 or 16 Life Providences, but he didn't expect it to be 18.
"Not bad. Continue to work hard. Once we're done with Big Abyss, we'll be able to pass the Three Lives Trials, "Lu Zhou said.
"Yes." Little Yuan 'er nodded and said, "Master, Second Senior Brother is at the Three-leaf stage. Does this count as me catching up to him?"
Lu Zhou said.
"Every leaf is equivalent to six Birth Charts. Although your Second Senior Brother is a thirteen-leaf cultivator, that was a long time ago. So, you have to work even harder. "
Everyone was shocked.
Just when he thought about Little Yuan 'er's heaven-defying talent, he remembered that Yu Shangrong's cultivation path was to sprout leaves. He had been at the thirteen-leaf stage for a long time now. Perhaps, he would reach the fourteen-leaf stage soon.
Little Yuan 'er was a little unhappy when she heard that. Back then, she thought that she would be able to catch up to him in ten years. Although she had almost caught up to him, there was still some distance between them.
Yu Shangrong smiled faintly and said, "Don't be discouraged, Ninth Junior Sister. You haven't been acknowledged by Big Abyss Xian Tian Qi, but your talent is already above everyone else's. Moreover, I've been cultivating for far longer than you. In terms of talent and future, you'll definitely surpass me."
At the mention of the Big Abyss Offering, Little Yuan 'er was elated. She said to Yu Shangrong, "Thank you, Second Senior Brother!"
Yu Zhenghai said indifferently, "Second Junior Brother, you're just spouting nonsense. With Ninth Junior Sister's talent, she might be the first person from the Evil Sky Pavilion to become a paragon. "
Little Yuan 'er smiled and said, "Thank you, Eldest Senior Brother!"
He nodded in satisfaction.
Lu Zhou looked at Conch and asked, "Conch."
Conch said dejectedly, "I only have 12 Birth Charts. I've just passed the Life Gate and sprouted the Eleven-leaf stage. I'm sorry, Master. I've dragged everyone down. "
"…"
Was this something a human could say?
How were the others supposed to live?
Apart from the ten great disciples, everyone else felt flustered and didn't want to speak. They were even a bit depressed, like a frosted eggplant.
Lu Zhou looked at Qin Naihe and asked, "Qin Naihe, how's your cultivation base?"
As the Evil Sky Pavilion's first free man and the first cultivator to become a Perfected One, he should not be too weak.
Qin Naihe sighed and said, "All these years, I've been consolidating my 18 Birth Providences. Alas, Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong have surpassed them. "
When they first joined the Evil Sky Pavilion, Qin Naihe was still their senior.
Looking at it now, it was no longer the same as before.
Lu Zhou nodded and said, "You have the help of the Great Void soil. There's no need to rush. The first few Birth Charts will go smoothly after you stabilize them."
"Thank you for your compliment, Pavilion Master."
Lu Zhou looked at the four elders and said, "Elders."
The four elders were considered elders in the Evil Sky Pavilion. Their talents were considered geniuses in the golden lotus domain. After obtaining the soil of the Great Void, his cultivation should have improved by quite a lot.
Hua Wudao said awkwardly, "Why don't we stop here? It's too shabby compared to the ten gentlemen."
The others nodded in agreement.
They were not interested at all. They did not even have the right to show off.
Mingshi Yin smiled and said, "This isn't embarrassing. Come on."
Hua Wudao had no choice but to answer honestly, "Eight Birth Charts."
Pan Litian said, "I have 10 Birth Charts."
Leng Luo said, "I have 10 Birth Charts."
Pan Litian glanced at him and commented, "Old Leng, I didn't expect you to improve so much without saying a word."
Leng Luo snorted and said, "Old Pan, don't tell me you think you're that much ahead of me?"
The two old antiques bickered while the other young men laughed.
Throughout the years, the Evil Sky Pavilion had been cultivating in the unknown lands. The quarrels between the four elders had amused them a lot. It made the journey in the unknown lands less boring.
However, the old antiques were no longer the same old antiques, and the young men were no longer the same.
"That's enough. I have 11 Birth Charts, but I didn't say anything, "Zuo Yushu said proudly as she poked her Coiling Dragon Staff.
Although she could not compare to the Evil Sky Pavilion's ten great disciples, she could still show off to the four elders.
"…"
"I'm impressed."
Zhou Jifeng said with a smile, "The four elders were the best cultivation geniuses in the golden lotus domain back then. Everyone knew about their peak strength back then. I'd believe it even if they had a few more Birth Charts. I'm not like them. I only have five Birth Charts. I used to be the first disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect, after all! "
Pan Zhong said, "That depends on who you're comparing yourself to. Do you think you can compare yourself to the ten misters?"
He cupped his fists at Lu Zhou and said, "Pavilion Master, I have five Birth Charts as well."
Following that, the others reported their cultivation bases. The Left and Right Messengers Yan Zhenluo and Lu Li had ten Birth Charts. They had started with five or six Birth Charts in the Thousand Worlds so their progress was not fast.
Shen Xi and Li Xiaomo were Black Guards of the Black Tower. Currently, they were cultivators with eight Birth Charts. However, they had been sucking up to Lu Zhou along the way. They felt slightly ashamed of themselves.
Meng Changdong was lagging behind. He only had two Birth Charts. However, he was satisfied.
Zhao Hongfu had six Birth Charts. The four Kong brothers had a good foundation. They were from the blue lotus domain. They had nine and ten Birth Charts.
…
After gaining an understanding of the Evil Sky Pavilion's overall strength, Lu Zhou nodded in satisfaction.
After training in the unknown lands for more than 100 years, if the Life Suppressing Pillars were taken into account, everyone had put in a lot more effort to attain their current cultivation bases. It could be said that they had reaped great rewards.
"The path of cultivation is long. Keep up the good work."
The others bowed.
"Cultivate here for a few days before we depart."
"Understood."
The members of the Evil Sky Pavilion spread out. They were not far away from each other.
Lu Zhou did not like crowds. With a burst of movement, he appeared under an ancient tree and sat down with his legs crossed.
Ever since he became a Saint, Lu Zhou had not taken his blue avatar seriously. This was a good opportunity to take a look.
The battle with Meng Zhang had allowed the blue avatar to absorb a large amount of lightning power. It was a thousand times more powerful than when it was in the white tower. The blue avatar already had three Birth Charts. How could it improve without a Birth Chart Heart?
Lu Zhou pushed his palm forward and summoned the blue avatar.
Whizz!
When he saw the blue avatar, he exclaimed in shock, "Eleven-leaf?"
Lu Zhou thought his eyes were playing tricks on him. He rubbed his eyes and counted. As expected, it was an Eleven-leaf avatar!
"What's going on?"
Lu Zhou was puzzled.
According to the progression of the golden lotus, it should have reached the Eleven-leaf stage after the 12 Birth Charts were activated.
However, the blue avatar had already reached the Eleven-leaf stage!
Lu Zhou was slightly worried. He would be in deep trouble if he experienced the same negative side effects as Lan Xihe.
"How do I confirm it?"
Lu Zhou looked at the blue avatar.
First, he controlled the blue avatar to perform a set of movements. There were no changes from before. Instead, it seemed to have more freedom.
The movements it could perform were more delicate as well.
The speed at which it unleashed the energy swords and its mastery of swords were no different from an ordinary person. All that was left was to improve its speed, technique, and strength.
Up to this point, he had not noticed any problems.
Lan Xihe did not have the Eleven-leaf stage. She had entered the 13 Birth Charts directly. This caused her to lose a lot of her life. This made it difficult for her to activate more Birth Charts.
When Lu Zhou thought about this, he seemed to understand something.
The blue avatar did not have a lifespan problem. Moreover, it was in a state of freedom and was not bound by the conventional cultivation path.
"I see." Realization dawned on Lu Zhou.
He suddenly understood why the Great Void was called the unorthodox path and the free avatar. At the same time, he understood the method of breaking free from the shackles mentioned in the Dao lecture canon.
"Could it be that the blue avatar is the key to breaking free from the shackles?"
The shackles of heaven and earth was a problem that had plagued generations of cultivators. Even the revered Great Void was no exception.
Lu Zhou looked at the blue avatar before him in awe. He kept muttering to himself, "Fiend God, who are you? How did you come up with such a unique cultivation path?"
Everyone could criticize the Fiend God, but Lu Zhou could not.
Ever since he became the master of the Evil Sky Pavilion, the Heavenly Writing power and the blue avatar had become his most important trump cards.
The power contained in the Heavenly Writing power was extremely pure and positive.
There was no aura of a Fiend at all.
"What's a Fiend?" Lu Zhou could not help but shake his head.
Lu Zhou suddenly thought of another question.
"The power of the Heavenly Writing power originated from the Three Scrolls of Heavenly Writing. Now, it's the Earth Scroll. If the blue avatar is part of the Heavenly Writing power, what's the deal with the system? "
There must be a connection between the two.
Every time Lu Zhou thought about this, he would feel the urge to break through to the supreme realm.
He remembered what he saw in the Dao Lecture Canon. It seemed like he had to meet the Fiend God before he could answer all his questions.
"The most important thing now is to make sure there's nothing wrong with the blue avatar."
Lu Zhou produced a Birth Chart Heart and inserted it into the blue avatar's Life Palace.
The insertion of the blue avatar's Birth Chart was based on the Golden Lotus. If there was no Birth Chart Heart, he would replace it with a similar beast. Fortunately, there were many types of beasts in the unknown lands. He had accumulated many Birth Chart Hearts along the way.
Apart from that, Lu Zhou also had the Iron Armored Holy Beast and North Chen Birth Chart Hearts that he had yet to use.
It would not be a problem for his Golden Lotus to have 26 Birth Charts.
Crack!
Lu Zhou nodded after the Birth Chart Heart was successfully inserted.
"More daunting than dangerous."
This confirmed that the blue avatar was not restricted by the current cultivation path.
"If that's true, can I insert Birth Charts at will?" Something stirred in Lu Zhou's heart.
What would happen if he inserted the Birth Chart Heart of a holy beast or a more powerful holy beast?
Lu Zhou's eyes narrowed at this bold idea.
In any case, the upper limit was completely unlocked. He could try it out later.
However, this was just a thought. It was clearly unrealistic to use the Birth Chart Hearts of holy beasts or ancient holy beasts.
Lu Zhou saw that the blue avatar was progressing smoothly.
Lu Zhou summoned his Golden Lotus avatar and looked at the lotus.
Even after passing the Four Life Trials, the upper limit was still not unlocked.
He could only strengthen his Life Palace if he passed the Life Trials.
Lu Zhou sighed softly. "I still have two more Birth Charts."
If he could not unlock the upper limit for the last two Birth Charts, it would mean he would be stuck at 26 Birth Charts.
Lu Zhou retracted his Golden Lotus avatar.
He took out a Random Card.
"Use."
"Ding! Obtained Ji Tiandao's Peak Card x2."
"As expected."
The system seemed to have some sort of foresight ability. It would provide help when Lu Zhou needed it.
The Heavenly Writing's deduction power relied on deduction to temporarily foresee the future. It was not surprising that the system possessed such a power.
In addition to the two cards from before, he now had four Peak Cards. He still needed five more.
He considered the fact that he had to face Big Abyss Tribute next.
He had to synthesize the highest-grade Peak Card in case he needed it.
"Ci Yuan 'er, complete apprenticeship," Lu Zhou said to himself.
"Ding! Your disciple, Ci Yuan 'er, has successfully completed apprenticeship. Reward: 10,000 merit points."
"Reward: 1 Random Card. Use this card and you will be randomly rewarded with a rare item."
…
Lu Zhou ignored the notifications and said, "Luo Shiyin, complete apprenticeship."
"Ding! Your disciple, Luo Shiyin, has successfully completed apprenticeship. Reward: 10,000 merit points."
"Reward: 1 Random Card. Use this card and you will be randomly rewarded with a rare item."
…
At this moment, all ten disciples had completed apprenticeship.
For some reason, Lu Zhou listened to the notifications numbly. He felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.
Lu Zhou sighed softly.
When a disciple acknowledged a master, he would eventually complete his apprenticeship.
"Ding! Your ten disciples have completed apprenticeship. Some effects of the system's teaching will disappear forever. Removed Mentor effect, Eternal Paragon effect, Taming effect … "
"Reward: 1 Upgrade Card."
"Reward: 1 Open Heavenly Writing Scroll. You may obtain a new Heavenly Writing power."
"New main mission triggered: Return of the Great Void."
Lu Zhou looked at the mission column on the system dashboard. The main mission of taming had disappeared.
"Return of the Great Void?"
He muttered to himself with a frown. He wanted to read the description of the main mission. Unfortunately, there were only four words. There were no other notifications.
Lu Zhou shook his head and said indifferently, "Whether the Great Void returns or not, I'll have to make a trip to the Great Void."
He closed the dashboard.
He took out two Random Cards.
"Use."
"Ding! Obtained Ji Tiandao's Peak Card x2."
"Use."
"Ding! Obtained Ji Tiandao's Peak Card x2."
Lu Zhou's eyelids twitched. He muttered to himself, "I'm missing one more."
This was unbearable.
There was no other way for him to obtain this card other than through lucky draws.
The Peak Card could not be purchased from the mall.
Lu Zhou hated the lucky draws the most.
Every time, there was an endless "thank you for your patronage". His head was buzzing, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.
"Forget it.
I'll put up with you this time. "
Lu Zhou began his lucky draw.
With the luck points he had accumulated, he had no choice but to increase them.
Three days later.
Morning.
The huge beast that blotted out the sky above the forest in Big Abyss woke the members of the Evil Sky Pavilion up.
Lu Zhou was still muttering, "Lucky draw."
"Ding! Spent 50 merit points. 9,999 merit points. Reward: Ji Tiandao's Peak Card x1."
