Although Leng Luo and Pan Litian were experienced and knowledgeable people, they were still shocked when they heard this.
He nearly lost his footing and fell into his chair.
Mingshi Yin looked up at his master, his eyes brimming with shock.
His voice was slightly hoarse and trembling as he said, "Pavilion Master, did you see the answer in the chess game?"
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded. He said, "Yun Tianluo sealed his method of reaching the Nine-leaf stage in the chessboard …"
Although there were few examples that he could refer to, based on his past knowledge and experience, Lu Zhou came to a conclusion.
"The thing that truly hinders a cultivator from reaching the Nine-leaf stage is the Golden Lotus under the Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar."
The four of them were stunned.
For a moment, he did not know what to say.
This was because Lu Zhou's words had challenged the common sense of the cultivation world.
It was common knowledge that the goal of everyone in the cultivation world was to condense the Hundred Tribulations Insight Golden Lotus. Anyone with a Golden Lotus would be an expert.
Lu Zhou spoke slowly.
"When an Eight-leaf cultivator attempts to reach the Nine-leaf stage, the golden lotus will absorb the cultivator's energy and life … This is the truth of the great limit."
"…"
Throughout the years, countless cultivators had attempted to attain the Nine-leaf stage.
After a large number of failures, the truth of the Great Limit was revealed. The truth forced those who came after him to stop trying to reach the Nine-leaf stage. Gradually, it became a consensus.
"The Golden Lotus absorbs one's lifespan … When I first met Gong Yuandu, I had the same thought, but I didn't dare to believe it. If that's the case, how much lifespan will the golden lotus absorb? " Pan Litian looked out of the great hall and said, "If a genius cultivator reaches the Eight-leaf stage at a young age, he can use up a lot of his life to attempt to reach the Nine-leaf stage. For example, Little Yuan 'er. "
Under such an occasion.
Jiang Aijian and Mingshi Yin listened quietly. They did not dare to interrupt.
Leng Luo shook his head and said, "That's not possible … Cultivators have cultivated for a long time, and there are many geniuses who have appeared out of nowhere. I don't see any of them reaching the Nine-leaf stage. "
Lu Zhou said.
Thus, the amount of lifespan that the Golden Lotus absorbs is no less than a thousand years.
"…"
The hall was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
1,000 years … This was the lifespan of a peak cultivator. Most cultivators could not even reach the Eight-leaf stage, let alone have a lifespan of 1,000 years.
If that was the case, how could he attain the Nine-leaf stage?
Leng Luo and Pan Litian shook their heads in resignation.
At this moment, Jiang Aijian could no longer hold back. He bowed and said, "May I say something, senior?"
"Speak."
"When I was in the palace, I read books in the inner vault … Indeed, some of the books had information about the Eight-leaf stage. I didn't pay much attention to it back then. Now that I think about it, some of the information is similar to what the old senior said … "
Jiang Aijian stroked his chin and continued to say, "There's a crucial piece of information in the book. I don't remember the exact words, but it says that if one wants to reach the Nine-leaf stage, they must be at the Eight-leaf stage in their mother's womb."
Leng Luo, Pan Litian, and Mingshi Yin.
Although his words were slightly vulgar, they were similar to Lu Zhou's words.
If he was an Eight-leaf cultivator in his mother's womb, he would have 1,000 years of life and a chance to reach the Nine-leaf stage.
But —
Who could attain the Eight-leaf stage in their mother's womb?
Mingshi Yin rolled his eyes and said, "Even if you're an Eight-leaf cultivator in your mother's womb, how can you be sure that the golden lotus didn't absorb 1,500 years or 2,000 years?"
Mingshi Yin's question stumped the others.
Lu Zhou glanced at Mingshi Yin as well.
Leng Luo and Pan Litian sighed.
They were Eight-leaf elites. Naturally, they understood the difficulty.
"At the end of the day … It's an unsolvable problem," Leng Luo said.
"No."
Lu Zhou replied calmly.
The four of them looked at Lu Zhou at the same time.
Lu Zhou's calm expression was brimming with unbelievable confidence.
"Why don't you think about it the other way around?" Lu Zhou reminded them.
"The other way around?"
Jiang Aijian and Mingshi Yin scratched their heads.
Leng Luo and Pan Litian could not figure out what the problem was as well.
No matter how they thought about it, it was an unsolvable problem.
"Please enlighten us, Pavilion Master!" Leng Luo stood up.
Pan Litian did not dare to delay. He stood up as well.
Mingshi Yin and Jiang Aijian did the same.
Lu Zhou's eyes burned as he looked at the four of them and said, "Since the golden lotus absorbs life, we'll just cut it down."
Leng Luo, Pan Litian, Jiang Aijian, and Mingshi Yin were speechless.
The great hall was still silent.
But these words set off a storm in the hearts of the four people.
Whether it was Leng Luo and Pan Litian who had nearly 1,000 years of experience or the young Jiang Aijian and Mingshi Yin, their reactions were almost the same at this moment.
Jiang Aijian gulped. "Wait … Let me catch my breath."
He raised his hand and stroked his chest a few times before saying,
"Old senior, severing your Golden Lotus is equivalent to being heavily injured. You'll also lose your peak state. How can you reach the Nine-leaf stage then?"
The four of them had already forgotten the difference in age.
This was a question that the other three wanted to ask as well.
Lu Zhou smiled warmly and said, "Is it possible that severing your Golden Lotus won't affect you?"
The four of them were stunned.
Based on the current situation, Lu Zhou was of the opinion that there were two ways to attain the Nine-leaf stage. The first was to satisfy the requirements of an Eight-leaf Golden Lotus and attain the Nine-leaf stage through normal means. This method was extremely difficult since nobody knew how much life the Golden Lotus would absorb. It was possible that it would take 1,000 years or even 2,000 years … This was also the reason why Lu Zhou kept the Reversal Cards. The second method was to sever the Golden Lotus and cultivate.
Lu Zhou's tone was calm.
"Have you ever thought about severing your Golden Lotus?"
The four of them gulped.
This cultivation method was unheard of.
However, nobody had studied it before. Who knew if it was impossible?
"A Nine-leaf cultivator without a Golden Lotus … He's only a quasi Nine-leaf cultivator," Jiang Aijian said.
"Even without a Golden Lotus, he's still a realm higher. His avatar is more than enough to crush you … According to the current information, a Nine-leaf avatar should be at least 150 feet tall," Mingshi Yin said.
Leng Luo and Pan Litian nodded.
The two of them sighed.
"I'm getting old. I'm not as quick-witted as you youngsters," Pan Litian said with a sigh.
Jiang Aijian and Mingshi Yin turned to look at Lu Zhou at the same time.
Pan Litian blushed. He was slightly embarrassed.
'You're old. What's the pavilion master to you?'
It was slightly awkward.
In any case, today's exchange was destined to overturn their previous cultivation methods.
Leng Luo and Pan Litian bowed in unison.
"Listening to you is better than reading books for 100 years, Pavilion Master."
Mingshi Yin and Jiang Aijian were speechless.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard in satisfaction. He nodded and said, "It's just an idea … If you really want to try it, you must be careful."
The four of them bowed deeply.
They knew if they did not have a perfect plan or had no other choice, they should not attempt to attain the Nine-leaf stage by severing their Golden Lotuses.
This method … was simply too shocking.
Naturally, Lu Zhou was only providing an idea.
After all, how many people would dare to do this to themselves?
Lu Zhou had Reversal Cards … If he had enough of them, he could attempt it when he reached the Eight-leaf stage. However, he did not use this method.
However, he did not know if there were other factors involved.
…
Meanwhile, at the entrance of the Mausoleum of Swords. A person with disheveled hair and a dirty face who was dressed in tattered clothes crawled out slowly.
He held a thick rope and propped it on his shoulder as he walked out of the mausoleum. On the other end of the rope was a shriveled corpse. The corpse was still wrapped in tattered monk robes.
He took one step at a time.
In the next second, he was hundreds of feet away.
