When Li Chun saw this jade token, she frowned and a look of surprise flashed in her eyes. However, she soon calmed down and said with a smile, "So it's Emperor Bai's people. No wonder another Sage has appeared in the Twin Lotus Flowers."
Chen Fu did not expect Lu Zhou to produce the White Emperor's jade token. He was puzzled and shocked.
Lu Zhou put the jade token away and returned to his seat.
Li Chun put away her arrogance and cupped her fists at Lu Zhou. "I didn't know it was you, White Emperor. Please forgive me."
For Big Abyss to allow the White Emperor to enter the Tian Qi State, there was no need to elaborate on his status.
Li Chun did not think much of Lu Zhou before this. However, since Lu Zhou had the White Emperor's backing, she had no choice but to take him seriously.
Lu Zhou said, "Are you still planning to take the Autumn Waters Mountain disciples away?"
Li Chun revealed an apologetic expression and said: "Since White Emperor has personally come forward, this matter will not be mentioned again. Please help me tell White Emperor that if there is a chance, I hope that White Emperor can come to Xuan Pin Hall as a guest. Our Monarch will welcome you at any time."
"I'll pass on the message," Lu Zhou said without batting an eyelid.
Li Chun said with a smile,
"Although I won't be taking away the disciples of Autumn Waters Mountain, someone else will come. I'm afraid you might be able to hide now, but you won't be able to hide forever. "
"Who?" Chen Fu asked.
"Tu Wei, Jiang Wenxu." Li Chun said, "The Silver-Armored Guards lost 3,000 men in the unknown land. These people are the backbone of Tu Wei's power and have contributed a lot to the Great Void over the years. Who would have thought that they would be completely annihilated in an unknown place? If Tu Wei Hall continues to recruit more people, I'm afraid they won't give White Emperor any face. "
Lu Zhou remembered the conflict between the Dark Armored Guards and the Silver Armored Guards on the Apocalypse Pillar. He asked, "You're both from the Great Void. Aren't you on the same side?"
Li Chun chuckled. "The general rules are the same, but the philosophy and style of doing things are different. We, Tu Wei Hall, do not believe that the silver-armored guards' actions are correct. "
Lu Zhou said.
"Grand Emperor Taixu doesn't care?"
"The Ten Halls are fighting for a position in the Great Void because of the Thearch's approval. As long as it doesn't violate the principles and disturb the balance of the world, "said Li Chun.
Chen Fu looked worried. He coughed a few more times and said, "Could it really be the will of the heavens?"
Li Chun said, "You can ask them to join the Mysterious Pin Palace at any time if you think it through. Out of respect for the White Emperor, I will not force you. I will respect your attitude and opinion. "
Li Chun got up and looked at the sky outside the window.
Actually, when he arrived, it was already nightfall. He had wanted to spend the night here, but seeing that Emperor Bai's men were here, he could only choose to leave.
He walked outside and stopped at the door. "Chen Fu, how much time do you have left?"
Chen Fu sighed. "Maybe tonight, maybe tomorrow …"
"You're really something to be able to last until now against a Martial Monarch. I'll come again in a few days. Let me remind you again that Tu Wei and Jiang Wenxu are not good people. "
Finished speaking, Li Chun disappeared on the spot.
The dojo fell silent.
No one knew what Chen Fu was thinking.
Lu Zhou said, "I'm afraid Autumn Dew Mountain won't be able to escape this calamity."
"The Great Han Dynasty will not be able to escape this calamity." Chen Fu sighed heavily.
Initially, he thought he could use Lu Zhou's strength to quell the conflict between his disciples and unite them against a common enemy. But now, it seemed that things had gone beyond his imagination.
Chen Fu asked, "What's happening in the unknown lands?"
"If I'm not mistaken, the Apocalypse Pillar is getting more and more dangerous," Lu Zhou said.
Chen Fu frowned when he heard this.
The last time he brought Lu Zhou to the unknown lands, the Heavenly Awakening Pillar seemed normal.
"Old Brother Lu, are you saying that the sky …" Chen Fu paused for a long time as he looked in the direction of the unknown lands before he added, "is going to collapse?"
"That's just a guess," Lu Zhou said.
Chen Fu seemed to have regained his senses. He stood up and paced back and forth with his hands on his back.
He was restless like an ant on a hot pan.
"Why are you so worried?"
"If the sky collapses, it might shake the foundations of the earth. The earth will split again and give birth to the tenth lotus, the eleventh lotus … At that time, countless lives will be lost, and blood will flow like rivers." Chen Fu's eyes widened as though he was recalling the events from 100,000 years ago. Although the memories were from a long time ago, the images in his mind were becoming more and more vivid.
"How did the Great Void reach the sky?" Lu Zhou asked.
Chen Fu shook his head and said, "Few know about this. Some say it has something to do with the Apocalypse Pillar. They say they saw the Apocalypse Pillar rise from the earth and lift the earth into the sky. There are also some who say that the Ten Temples of the Great Void worked together to create the Apocalypse Pillar to avoid the splitting of the earth and lift the Great Void. "
When Lu Zhou heard this, he said, "The former is believable, but I don't believe the latter … The Apocalypse Pillar isn't something that can be done by humans."
"Not necessarily."
Chen Fu did not agree with Lu Zhou's opinion. "The path of cultivation is long. If one can become a heaven supreme, shatter the void, and have an avatar that can support the heavens and earth, pluck the stars with a lift of one's hand, and summon wind and rain with a breath.
"…"
Lu Zhou wanted to refute Chen Fu, but when he remembered that this was the cultivation world, everything was possible.
However, when he thought about the scene of an avatar that could support the heavens and earth, he found it slightly exaggerated. He asked, "Have you seen it before?"
"No."
'I've never seen you blow anything.'
Lu Zhou returned to the topic at hand and said, "Since Autumn Water Mountain is facing such a calamity, it's not impossible to avoid it."
"What do you think, Old Brother Lu?" Chen Fu's eyes lit up.
"We can hide in Fragrance Valley together. Didn't you say that even a Dao Saint can't do anything to Fragrance Valley?" Lu Zhou asked.
Chen Fu nodded and said, "Indeed. However, if that's the case, wouldn't the Great Han Dynasty fall into chaos?"
Without the threat of a Saint, the power structure that had been in place for tens of thousands of years would surely be reorganized.
Lu Zhou said, "This is easy. All we have to do is announce to the world that you're traveling. Send someone out to take a look every once in a while. "
Chen Fu nodded. This seemed like a good idea.
Lu Zhou said, "Most of my disciples have become Enlightened Masters. Now that they've been acknowledged by Tian Qi, it's not a problem for them to become Saints. With Fragrance Valley's help, their cultivation bases will surely improve by leaps and bounds. "
Chen Fu said with a sigh, "Gaining Tian Qi's approval isn't just limited to becoming a Saint. It's not impossible for them to become a Great Dao Saint or a supreme in the future."
He suddenly remembered a question and asked, "When did you become a Saint?"
"I fought the Azure Dragon Meng Zhang at Mt. Tian Qi and became a Saint by chance," Lu Zhou said indifferently.
"What?!"
Chen Fu looked at Lu Zhou in shock. "You fought Meng Zhang?"
"You don't believe me?"
"Meng Zhang is one of the Four Heavenly Spirits. Although he's weakened, he's at least a Lesser Supreme Being." Chen Fu did not believe Lu Zhou at all.
Lu Zhou knew what he meant. "Believe it or not, it's up to you."
Whizz!
A faint radiance shone from his body, and it was growing brighter.
There was no doubt he was a Saint.
Chen Fu said with a sigh, "You've impressed me. The last time we met, you were only a Enlightened Master. Now, you're a Saint. "
"A hundred years have passed. Nothing is impossible," Lu Zhou said.
"You've condensed a Heavenly Soul?" Chen Fu asked.
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "I've always been skeptical about condensing a Heavenly Soul. Tian Wu and Marquis Zhennan, who are guarding the corner, have condensed a Heavenly Soul Pearl. His Birth Chart can nullify fatal damage. However, after he condensed a Heavenly Soul, he only has one life. Isn't that a self-destructive move? "
Chen Fu said.
"That's not it … First, it's more beneficial to one's cultivation after condensing a Heavenly Soul. Second, the Heavenly Soul Pearl's comprehensive ability and defensive power are far greater than the sum of all the Birth Charts. Indeed, Birth Charts can nullify damage, but when one's Birth Chart is destroyed, it usually means that one is gravely injured. Finally, the Heavenly Soul contains the Birth Chart, and it can be used with a set of incantations. "
Lu Zhou nodded.
He did not expect there to be so many ways to condense a Heavenly Soul.
"A Heavenly Soul can be converted into an astrolabe as well?"
"That's right," Chen Fu said with a smile, "This requires a higher level of skill from the cultivator."
For example, many cultivators liked to use astrolabes for defense. When an astrolabe was hit, it would act like a shield.
However, doing so was no different from throwing one's life at the muzzle of a gun.
"Although an astrolabe's defenses are shocking, it'll be difficult to protect one's Birth Chart if one encounters an expert. However, a Heavenly Soul Pearl is different. Theoretically speaking, a Heavenly Soul Pearl is difficult to destroy. Moreover, it's difficult to use it again. In other words, if one encounters an opponent who's much stronger than one, the Heavenly Soul Pearl will last longer, "Chen Fu said.
"How do I condense a Heavenly Soul?" Lu Zhou asked.
Chen Fu could understand why Lu Zhou asked this question.
After all, the number of people who had become Sages in the Nine Lotus Realm could be counted on one hand.
Most cultivators would never be able to use this method in their entire lives.
Chen Fu said, "Condensing a Heavenly Soul isn't complicated. You just have to concentrate and guard your dantian's Sea of Qi. You just have to stack all the Birth Charts in your Life Palace together."
Hum –
Chen Fu pressed his palm down.
The Saint's lotus throne appeared before Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou looked over.
He could see that there were already large cracks on the green lotus seat.
There was no so-called fate in the Fate Palace, only a circular area.
Shua –
The circular area shifted and changed back into the 26 Life Providence areas.
"A great saint with 26 Birth Charts …" Lu Zhou exclaimed in shock.
"Normally speaking, twenty-four Life Providences can make one a Sage, and twenty-seven Life Providences can make one a Great Sage. I was lucky enough to comprehend an even stronger power of the Dao and was the first to become a Great Sage," said Chen Fu.
At this time, Chen Fu's Life Palace was twisting and changing.
Finally, they came together and formed a circle.
Chen Fu casually waved his hand, and the lotus disappeared. Then, he made a grabbing motion with his palm, and an astrolabe appeared.
He pushed his palm forward again, and the 36 triangles on the astrolabe shrank into a circle. Light shone in all directions.
"Heavenly Soul Pearl," Lu Zhou said indifferently, "I've always thought that Heavenly Soul Pearls were exclusive to beasts."
"In the ancient times, there was no distinction between humans and beasts. If you've read the ancient texts, you'll find that humans during that time were basically half-human and half-beast, "Chen Fu said.
At this moment, the Heavenly Soul Pearl dimmed slightly. There was a gray aura swirling around it.
It seemed to be lacking in energy as well.
"The Heavenly Soul Pearl is difficult to use, but it doesn't mean that it can't be used, right?" Lu Zhou asked.
"That's right."
Chen Fu continued to say, "The reason it's difficult to use is that some cultivators have already used their Birth Charts repeatedly. After fusing them to form a Heavenly Soul, if they use them again, they'll run out of energy and fail to activate their Birth Charts. Beasts' Heavenly Soul Pearls are usually not used repeatedly. Hence, in the ancient times, human cultivators would specifically hunt powerful holy beasts. "
Lu Zhou nodded.
He did not expect a mere Heavenly Soul Pearl to contain so much knowledge.
Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough …
Chen Fu coughed violently again.
Lu Zhou looked at the gradually dimming Heavenly Soul Pearl and said, "The Great Emperor of Taixu is truly resourceful."
Chen Fu put the Heavenly Soul Pearl away and sat down. He calmed his breathing and said, "I'm the Master of the Holy Temple, after all. I'm fortunate enough to be alive."
"I'll think of a way to cure you once we're in Fragrance Valley," Lu Zhou said.
Chen Fu smiled and said, "There's no need for that. I'll live as long as I can."
Lu Zhou stood up and said, "We'll depart tomorrow."
"So soon?"
"It's better to do this sooner rather than later," Lu Zhou said.
"Alright."
The two of them made their agreement.
Early the next morning, Qiushui Mountain announced to the world that the Great Sage, Chen Fu, would be traveling the world with his disciples.
Chen Fu ordered his disciples to gather and told them about his trip to Fragrance Valley. His disciples agreed to go, including Zhang Xiaoruo and Liu Zheng whose cultivation bases were removed. The two of them had encountered the Great Void before. Hence, they could not stay behind to avoid any unforeseen circumstances.
After they gathered, the Qiushui Mountain disciples were shocked when they saw the Evil Sky Pavilion's mounts. They marveled at the difference between them.
At noon, Lu Zhou led the members of the Evil Sky Pavilion toward Fragrance Valley with Chen Fu.
…
The next day.
Elder Ming De appeared in the air near Qiushui Mountain.
He looked down at Qiushui Mountain.
"The token's final aura … appeared here."
The figure hovered in the air and shrouded the entire Qiushui Mountain with his powerful senses. A moment later, he said, "It's not here?"
He frowned and said angrily, "Great Sage Chen, how dare you destroy the Great Void's token? I swear I'll find you."
His figure flickered.
It shone brightly in Qiushui Mountain.
However, Qiushui Mountain was already empty. There was no one in sight.
The cracked limestone floor and the bloodstains caught his attention.
He walked over. He bent down to observe.
He frowned slightly and said, "The battle wasn't intense."
His figure flickered again.
When Chen Fu left Qiushui Mountain, he had ordered the other disciples to leave.
Naturally, Ming De could not find anyone.
He could only follow the remnant aura in the air.
In the end, he appeared on the cracked floor.
"Where did he go?" Elder Ming De frowned.
Then, he produced a glowing talisman from his pocket and informed Jiang Wenxu of this.
After doing this, Elder Ming De muttered to himself, "Jiang Wenxu, oh, Jiang Wenxu, you're out of luck. Chen Fu has escaped."
Elder Ming De placed his palm on the ground.
A halo enveloped the entire Qiushui Mountain.
"The remnant aura of the Great Void Token won't dissipate so easily. Let's see where you can hide now. "Elder Ming De continued his pursuit patiently.
The figure flickered again and vanished.
…
Meanwhile.
At the entrance of Fragrance Valley.
Chen Fu pointed at the mountain range and said, "It's up ahead. Once we enter Fragrance Valley, just seal this place. "
It was a trench-shaped downward slope.
It looked unusually deep and remote.
Lu Zhou nodded and said, "Let's go in."
"Understood."
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The others followed Lu Zhou and Chen Fu into Fragrance Valley.
"Stop dilly-dallying. You're the only one left." Zhou Guang, the third disciple of Qiushui Mountain, dragged Liu Zheng along.
Since Liu Zheng had lost his cultivation base, he had to rely on others.
Liu Zheng spat out a mouthful of blood and said, "I'm heavily injured. Thank you, Third Senior Brother."
"You're no longer a disciple of Qiushui Mountain. Don't call me that. I'm afraid of shortening my life," Zhou Guang said.
Liu Zheng remained expressionless. He was enveloped by Zhou Guang's energy as he flew over.
When he entered Fragrance Valley, a sneer appeared on his face. Swoosh!
Swoosh! Swoosh! The people from the Evil Sky Pavilion and Qiushui Mountain disappeared into the distance.
Mingshi Yin rode on the dog and flew over to the pool of blood. "Heh, this little trick … can only fool a three-year-old!"
In just a few moments, he cleaned up the pool of blood. There was no aura left.
