The disciples understood what he meant.
The first to make a move was Duanmu Sheng who had been holding back for a long time.
He raised his Overlord Spear and threw it with all his might as though he was throwing a javelin.
The Overlord Spear was wrapped in energy. Its tip shone brightly as it tore through the air.
Those with discerning eyes could tell with a glance that it was a supreme-grade heaven-grade weapon.
Even heaven-grade weapons differed in quality. However, the cultivation world did not have a clear distinction between heaven-grade weapons and below.
For example, Yu Shangrong's Longevity Sword had broken Zhuo Ping's Male and Female Swords.
Moreover, those who could wield heaven-grade weapons were usually Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm elites. One-leaf cultivators were only at the beginning. Only Five-leaf cultivators could truly wield heaven-grade weapons.
Hence …
Duanmu Sheng threw his spear.
The crowd cheered.
Bam!
The Overlord Spear, shrouded in energy, struck the marble floor three meters in front of Wu Nian.
With the tip of the Overlord Spear as the center, cracks spread out for more than ten meters.
Meanwhile.
Little Yuan 'er tossed out her Nirvana Sash. It paved a path that resembled a red carpet. She stepped on the Nirvana Sash and stood in front of the nuns.
Mingshi Yin crossed his arms in a relaxed manner. He walked up to the nearest towering pillar and stabbed his Separation Hook into the pillar. There was a hint of a smile in his eyes.
The onlookers' interest was piqued.
Perhaps, due to Lu Zhou's identity, they were more excited than before.
After the incident with the Heavenly Sword Sect's Luo Xingkong.
Most of them were disgusted by the Heavenly Sword Sect's way of doing things. The nuns from the Cloud Shine Nunnery were even more disgusting.
Wu Nian was puzzled.
"Amitabha … Old benefactor, what's the meaning of this?"
Lu Zhou looked down at Wu Nian from above. His gaze fell on the Jade Horsetail Whisk in her hand as he said, "Leave the Jade Horsetail Whisk behind and cripple your cultivation base. You may leave after that. "
Wu Nian. "…"
Lu Zhou's voice was neither fast nor slow. It was neither light nor heavy.
It was as though he was talking about something insignificant.
Perhaps, due to his identity, everyone was looking at him when he spoke. The surroundings were quiet.
Even without the use of Yuan Qi voice transmission, it could be clearly transmitted to everyone's ears.
"Old benefactor, there's no enmity between the Cloud Shine Nunnery and the Evil Sky Pavilion. Why are you targeting me?" Wu Nian asked innocently.
Lu Zhou sighed and shook his head. He did not continue the conversation. Instead, he asked, "Did Jing Yan really not tell you about this?"
Buddhist Master Wu Nian was puzzled. Her instincts told her that the Evil Sky Pavilion's master on the flying chariot had a special relationship with her master, Jing Yan.
She had entered the Cloud Shine Nunnery when she was young and grew up there. She was Jing Yan's disciple, but she had never heard her master mention the Evil Sky Pavilion.
"Old benefactor, I'm confused. Please enlighten me. "Wizard Wu Nian straightened her palm.
Lu Zhou said, "Bastard."
Naturally, Lu Zhou's knowledge came from Ji Tiandao's memories.
Thinking back to what had happened a hundred years ago, this memory was exceptionally clear.
Unfortunately, things have changed with the passage of time.
"Old benefactor, why are you cursing me?"
The ten nuns behind her stepped forward and surrounded Master Wu Nian.
When Buddhist Master Wu Nian was in the middle, she was chanting strange Buddhist scriptures.
The ten nuns straightened their palms as well and began chanting as well.
Wu Nian bowed at Lu Zhou who was on the cloud-splitting chariot and said, "Although I don't know the relationship between you and my master, old benefactor, I have a clear conscience. If it's possible, I'd like to invite you to the Cloud Shine Nunnery. I'm willing to discuss the Dao with you.
"Farewell."
Whizz!
Halos appeared beneath the feet of the ten nuns.
The halos were the upgraded version of the Bright Mirror.
They could move with it.
The circular green halos were carved with complicated veins and unique energy fluctuations.
This was one of the most commonly used and difficult enhancing techniques of the Buddhist Sects.
The eleven nuns hovered in the air.
With Wu Nian in the center, the halos enveloped them and rose into the air.
Duanmu Sheng snorted and stepped into the air. The Overlord Spear on the ground buzzed and trembled as it was pulled back by a surge of energy.
Whoosh!
The Overlord Spear returned to Duanmu Sheng's hand.
Duanmu Sheng, who had been holding back for too long, charged forward in a straight line.
"This is the Evil Sky Pavilion's third disciple, Duanmu Sheng. It's said that he cultivates the Divine One Technique. It's extremely domineering and ferocious. Now that I've seen him, he lives up to his reputation. "
Buddhist Master Wu Nian shook her head and sighed.
The halos shone.
Bam!
The Overlord Spear struck the halos, and the eleven nuns continued to rise.
Duanmu Sheng's eyes widened in anger as he said, "Hundred Tribulations Insight."
His Two-leaf Golden Lotus avatar appeared next to him. Its two lotus leaves spun at an incredible speed. It was as though he had ten leaves at the same time.
Buddhist Master Wu Nian frowned slightly. "Amitabha … Break!"
The Jade Horsetail Whisk suddenly shone brightly.
Dense droplets of energy rained down from the halos.
The chanting of the ten nuns grew louder and louder.
This fighting style of the Buddhist Sects was rare. The onlookers shuddered in fear as they watched with their mouths agape.
They focused their attention on the Evil Sky Pavilion's third disciple, Duanmu Sheng.
Duanmu Sheng raised his Overlord Spear. Bam! Bam!
Bam! He blocked the energy rain with his avatar.
However, due to the immense force, he had no choice but to fall.
When he landed, there was a loud bang as his feet landed on the marble floor. Gravel flew everywhere.
Cracks appeared on the ground.
The onlookers retreated and continued to look at the sky.
"Let me."
Hua Yuexing raised her hand, and a Vital Energy Bow and Arrow shot out smoothly like flowing water.
Bang!
The halo blocked Hua Yuexing's arrow.
"There are archers too?"
"The Evil Sky Pavilion is truly defying the heavens!"
"Although this arrow can't break the Buddhist Bright Mirror, it's a technique that only a Nascent Divinity Tribulation expert can use."
As soon as he finished speaking.
Another ten arrows shot out.
In the air, they looked like ten golden lines.
At this moment, Little Yuan 'er and Mingshi Yin flew over at lightning speed.
The scarlet Nirvana Sash was like a huge rose that had bloomed, attracting a lot of attention.
Mingshi Yin's eyes were filled with determination. The Separation Hook in his hand shone brightly.
Seeing this scene.
Venerable Wu Nian snorted lightly and said, "You asked for it! Amitabha — "
Four Buddhist runes descended from the Jade Horsetail Whisk.
The ten disciples suddenly spread out, forming a huge circle.
The circle of light was pulled apart by them and became incomparably huge.
It almost covered the entire center of the lotus platform.
Energy poured out from the circle …
"The sea of bitterness has no bounds."
The energy poured down like a tidal wave.
The chanting of sutras converged. Sorrow and bitterness shrouded the surroundings. Those who were caught in it could not extricate themselves from it.
Hua Wudao was about to stand up when Lu Zhou raised his hand and said, "I'm the one who sowed the seeds, and I'll reap the consequences."
Hua Wudao nodded and retreated to the side.
Little Yuan 'er, Mingshi Yin, and Duanmu Sheng were shrouded by the energy and could not move an inch.
Lu Zhou stepped out of the cloud-splitting chariot.
He shifted his gaze and focused on Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou's aura was not strong. He raised his palm.
"Bastard!"
The grunt was deep and powerful. It resounded throughout the lotus platform.
This included Buddhist Master Wu Nian and her disciples.
They saw Lu Zhou stepping out of thin air.
They could not help but feel nervous.
The Evil Sky Pavilion's Patriarch was finally going to make a move!
Lu Zhou raised his arm and waved his sleeve.
Casually and calmly, he struck out with his palm!
The air trembled slightly as Primal Qi gathered.
The space before his palm seemed to distort.
A palm-sized script, 'bind', shot out at top speed.
Those with a discerning eye could tell the script's origin at a glance.
"Binding Mantra!"
The Binding Mantra was much faster than Hua Yuexing's arrow.
There were no grand movements or dazzling flashes of light.
Bam!
The script, 'bind', shot through the energy circle like a meteor.
"How … how's this possible?"
Puh!
They did not even have time to react.
The Binding Mantra struck Buddhist Master Wu Nian.
Buddhist Master Wu Nian grunted. Her chanting instantly stopped.
The ten disciples could not withstand the absorption of the huge energy circle and collapsed on the spot.
There was no Bodhi tree, and the Bright Mirror was not a platform.
The more powerful the Buddhist Bright Mirror was, the more power it required.
Without Buddhist Master Wu Nian in the center, it was as though they had lost their pillar.
It was like a grand building that had its pillar removed. No matter how grand the building was, it would still collapse.
The energy circle spread out.
The ten disciples reeled back and spat out mouthfuls of blood.
They were sent flying from the center of the Lotus Dais for hundreds of meters.
Buddhist Master Wu Nian's expression changed drastically. She tried to circulate her Primal Qi, but it was empty.
When the energy circle dissipated, she plummeted.
Little Yuan 'er withdrew her Nirvana Sash.
When Mingshi Yin saw this, he cursed, "What kind of trick is this … I'll dodge!"
He stepped into the air and dodged.
Duanmu Sheng adjusted his Overlord Spear and pointed it 180 degrees downward.
Bam!
The Overlord Spear plunged into the ground again. Duanmu Sheng stood on the end of the Overlord Spear. He crossed his arms and hovered in the air. He looked at the falling Buddhist Master Wu Nian expressionlessly.
Boom!
Buddhist Master Wu Nian crashed into the marble floor.
A cultivator without a cultivation base … was like a freefall. Coupled with the toughness of Body Tempering, she was like a piece of metal.
She fell.
A human-shaped pit was formed.
…
The Lotus Dais was silent.
The surroundings were deathly silent.
The spectators rubbed their eyes. They could not believe what they had just seen.
The greatest elite of the Cloud Shine Nunnery was struck down by the Evil Sky Pavilion's patriarch with a single palm strike?
On the other hand, Lu Zhou's expression was calm. He did not seem to have exerted much strength.
"The Pavilion Master's techniques have truly widened my horizons," Hua Wudao exclaimed inwardly.
Hua Wudao was a knowledgeable person. He knew that it was almost impossible to cast the Binding Curse without an extremely high cultivation base.
Moreover, Buddhist Master Wu Nian was trapped in the upgraded Bright Mirror.
Lu Zhou descended from the air.
He placed one hand on his back and stroked his beard with the other.
The spectators held their breaths as they stared at the greatest villain under the heavens.
Little Yuan 'er landed near Buddhist Master Wu Nian as well.
The ten disciples of the Cloud Shine Nunnery were lying limply on the ground. They looked up with difficulty.
Lu Zhou landed next to Buddhist Master Wu Nian and looked down at her.
Wu Nian's eyes were filled with fear and disbelief. Blood trickled down the corners of her lips, and her face was ghastly pale.
Her lips were trembling.
She pushed herself up with her palms, trying to get up from the pit. However, she could not move at all.
Lu Zhou waved his hand.
The Jade Horsetail Whisk flew into his hand.
"Ding! Retrieved the Jade Horsetail Whisk. Needs to be refined before use."
Lu Zhou recalled the events from 100 years ago.
Although they were only Ji Tiandao's memories, he felt as though he was there. He could not help but reminisce about it. The sparring session on Cloud Shine Peak, admiring the moon on Zixia Mountain, watching the fish at the Hundred Leaves Lake … The scenes were vivid in his mind.
He seemed to have remembered something.
He asked, "Is Jing Yan doing well?"
Wu Nian's eyes widened as she looked at the old man before her.
"My … master … passed away a long time ago."
Lu Zhou's expression was calm when he heard this. He sighed and said, "… Birth, aging, sickness, and death are part of the cycle of the heavens. There's no such thing as a cycle in the world … Living well is the most important thing. “
Little Yuan 'er was shocked when she saw her master's melancholy expression.
Ever since she joined the Evil Sky Pavilion, she had never heard of her master having any friends, regardless of gender. However, a former female Buddhist Master had suddenly appeared before her. Based on her master's words, it seemed like they were close.
Little Yuan 'er looked up and asked, "Master … Who's Jing Yan?"
Lu Zhou ignored her.
Instead, he looked at Wu Nian and asked, "Who instructed you to interfere in my affairs?"
Wu Nian shook her head and said, "No … No one instructed me … I … I'm willing to admit defeat …"
'Admit defeat?'
Lu Zhou caught on to her choice of words.
'What are we betting on?
Which side will the Lotus Dais stand on?
That the Heavenly Sword Sect will win?
Or that the Evil Sky Pavilion will lose? '
Wu Nian coughed.
She spat out another mouthful of blood.
She struggled to push herself off the ground again. Crack!
Finally, with all her might, she climbed out of the pit.
The onlookers were shocked when they saw her wretched state. They could not help but gulp.
They did not expect the greatest villain in the world to be so terrifying.
"Where's Jing Yan buried?" Lu Zhou asked.
"Near Cloud Shine Peak, in the Hundred Leaves Lake …"
"…"
Lu Zhou shook his head and said indifferently, "I remember that the Jade Horsetail Whisk is Jing Yan's master … How did it end up in your hands? Answer me truthfully. If there's any falsehood in your words, this day next year will be the anniversary of your death. "
Wu Nian's body trembled.
She had thought that with her abilities, even if she was no match for the Evil Sky Pavilion, at the very least, she would be able to come and go as she pleased.
At this moment, she realized how laughable her thoughts were.
Wu Nian replied in a low voice, "My master passed away … I had no choice but to inherit the position of Cloud Shine Nunnery's abbess. The Jade Horsetail Whisk was given to me by my master. "
At this moment …
Wu Nian fell backward.
Lu Zhou looked at Wu Nian and said, "You bastard … How did Jing Yan get a disciple like you?"
Wu Nian was silent.
She had nothing to say.
Lu Zhou placed his hands on his back and said, "I'll take back the Jade Horsetail Whisk … Are you willing to accept this?"
Wu Nian's eyes widened when she heard this.
"No, no, no, no, no …"
She scrambled to her feet in a fluster.
When she was next to Lu Zhou, her arrogance and sense of superiority that were ingrained in her bones vanished at this moment.
She was just about to reach Lu Zhou when she was pushed back by a wave of energy.
The ten disciples of Cloud Shine Nunnery leaped up at the same time.
They gathered at the center.
Meanwhile.
In the third pavilion far away from the Lotus Dais.
"Retreat! The plan has failed! "
In the fifth pavilion.
"The plan has failed. Retreat!"
In the eighth pavilion.
"The plan has failed. Everyone, retreat!"
The cultivators in each pavilion left the pavilions and Lotus Dais at lightning speed. They did not even look back.
However …
In the ninth pavilion.
An order rang in the air.
"Get ready. Move out."
