Hua Wudao raised an eyebrow. He was shocked when he saw the surging Primal Qi and energy above the eastern pavilion.
"This is …" Hua Wudao raised his hand, hesitating to speak.
Zhao Yue said, "Elder Hua, can you tell?"
His disciples could not tell what was going on anyway. All they needed to know was that their master had always done things that did not make sense.
Hua Wudao nodded and said, "Your cultivation bases aren't high enough. Look closely …"
He pointed at the surging Primal Qi and the surging energy above them as he said, "The Eight Methods Connected is actually a tempering of the body and will. A cultivator who successfully condenses the Eight Methods Connected will have a great improvement in his cultivation base. However, think about it … The pavilion master is already in the peak Eight-leaf stage of the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm … Why would he need to condense a low-level avatar like the Eight Methods Connected? "
"Why?"
Zhao Yue, Little Yuan 'er, and Duanmu Sheng looked as if they were asking for guidance.
"To strive for perfection."
Hua Wudao spoke with fervor and assurance as he said meaningfully, "Cultivators with the same cultivation base aside, what do you think determines who's better?"
"Luck?" Duanmu Sheng scratched his head.
Hua Wudao. "…"
Zhao Yue and Little Yuan 'er looked at their Third Senior Brother at the same time and nodded in agreement.
They cleared their throat.
Hua Wudao said solemnly, "It's technique and experience.
"Look at the Primal Qi fluctuations above the eastern pavilion. The alternating heat and cold, the balance of Yin and Yang … It's extremely stable. Cultivators with poor aptitudes will experience turbulence in their Primal Qi when they're condensing an avatar. If they're not careful during the process, they'll fail.
"Most people can condense the Eight Methods Connected within three attempts.
Those who succeed on the first attempt are geniuses.
Those who succeed on the second attempt are superior.
"Those who succeed on the third attempt are considered average … Let's not talk about it.
Bam!
The eight streams of energy above the eastern pavilion were condensed. They spun and merged together.
"Elder Hua, I'm enlightened … When I first learned the Divine One Technique, I found it extremely difficult. Now that I'm cultivating the basic section of the Divine One Technique, it's indeed easy. I've improved greatly in terms of technique and experience. "Duanmu Sheng looked in the direction of the eastern pavilion.
"Indeed …" Hua Wudao narrowed his eyes as well as he looked at the eastern pavilion.
"I've been enlightened." Zhao Yue cupped her hands.
His breathing gradually calmed down.
Peace returned to the surroundings of the East Pavilion.
"Elder Hua is right."
Mingshi Yin walked in from outside. His movements were erratic. It was clear he had just returned from his business.
"Fourth Senior Brother!" Zhao Yue and Little Yuan 'er greeted him.
"I still remember when Master was cultivating in the secret room … I accidentally disturbed Master. You might not believe me, Elder Hua, but I couldn't even block master's Eight Meridians … If master didn't show mercy, I would've been injured, "Mingshi Yin said.
Hua Wudao nodded and said, "This is a true powerhouse …"
At this moment, Lu Zhou who had formed his Eight Methods Connected avatar slowly opened his eyes.
He didn't expect it to take so long this time.
However, other than the longer time, there was no difference from before.
There were no bottlenecks, and there were no problems in the condensation process. The mobilization of Primordial Qi and the formation of the Dharmakaya were exceptionally precise.
Lu Zhou gauged his cultivation base. Indeed, he had entered the Divine Court realm and was only a step away from the Dao Transforming realm.
At this realm, he could easily control his own cultivation path.
In the Great Yan world, everyone's path of cultivation would be formed at the early stage of the Divine Court realm. Saber path, sword path, archery path, spear path, and so on. Many cultivators would usually decide on a path to cultivate at a very early stage. However, they would only be able to form their cultivation path in the Divine Court realm.
When one was in the Divine Court realm, the cultivation foundation they had laid down would be reflected in their weapons.
This was why heaven-grade weapons were so valuable.
"Divine Court realm … Dao-controlling realm …" Lu Zhou nodded in satisfaction.
This speed could be considered one of a kind.
Lu Zhou gauged the state of the Heavenly Writing's extraordinary power.
It was only one-third full.
That was not bad.
His speed of comprehension seemed to be faster than before.
Lu Zhou sensed the disturbance outside the pavilion. He shouted, "How dare you! “
His shout was laced with Primordial Qi.
The soundwave rolled out of the eastern pavilion.
Mingshi Yin, Hua Wudao, and the others took several steps back.
"Master."
"Pavilion Master."
Even someone as proud as Hua Wudao could not help but lower his body.
Lu Zhou walked out with his hands on his back.
He swept his gaze across the people in the courtyard.
"Are you all free?"
"I dare not."
Mingshi Yin hastily bowed and said, "Master, I've gone to look for Jiang Aijian … He said the box you asked him to investigate isn't in the palace. As for the items in the Evil Sky Pavilion, he'll have to investigate them carefully. Also, he suspects that Si Wuya is investigating him so he won't be contacting the Evil Sky Pavilion for the time being. "
'This rascal again.
Even the Binding Mantra can't make him submit obediently.
"Jiang Aijian also said … he's heard about the Lotus Dais. The elite who fought master is most likely an elite from Lou Lan in Rongxi. "
"An elite from Lou Lan?" Hua Wudao was slightly shocked.
Little Yuan 'er asked in confusion, "Are they powerful?"
"When Lou Lan and Great Yan went to war, the people were plunged into misery and suffering. Countless people were forced to flee for their lives. It was Lou Lan's witchcraft cultivators who caused this … Even so, Lou Lan was defeated … From then on, the cultivators of Great Yan no longer underestimated witchcraft," Hua Wudao said.
"Are there no witchcraft experts in Great Yan?"
"Witchcraft originates from Great Yan. However, its weakness is too obvious, and there are few who cultivate it. Only a few cultivators who are obsessed with witchcraft persist, "Hua Wudao said.
Mingshi Yin nodded and bowed at Lu Zhou.
He bowed at Lu Zhou and said, "Master, this information should be reliable. We have to be wary of someone who can control such a powerful witchcraft from the Lotus Dais. "
Even so, Lu Zhou was still puzzled. The person he encountered at the intersection of energy on the Lotus Dais was not a human but some sort of beast. That person was most likely the beast's master.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, "Did you expose your whereabouts when you went to the Divine Capital?"
"Absolutely not …" Mingshi Yin said confidently, "Old Seventh is indeed smart, but he wouldn't have sent someone to spy on his disciple when he goes to the toilet, would he?"
The others looked at him in disdain.
Mingshi Yin was right, but his metaphor was too crude.
Moreover, with his skills, it was not difficult for him to conceal his whereabouts.
Bam!
A loud sound rang in the air.
The others looked in the direction of the sound.
"The Cave of Reflection at the back of the mountain."
Lu Zhou looked up at the barrier.
Although the barrier was much weaker, it was still holding up.
The sound did not come from the barrier.
Zhou Jifeng sprinted over from the back of the mountain. He fell to one knee and said, "Pavilion Master, something happened to M-mister Eighth."
Lu Zhou remained silent.
Instead, he waved his sleeve and walked toward the back of the mountain.
The others followed closely behind him.
Mingshi Yin muttered under his breath, "Old Eighth, that fool. Can't he just calm down?"
