Yun Wuji's loss of reason was merely his final struggle against death.
In truth, his fate was sealed when news of the failure of the alliance between the ten great elders and the seven great sects arrived.
Thousands of disciples and core elites from the ten holy lands surrounded the Yun Sect.
The members of the Tian and Luo Sects were not fools.
After offending a Nine-leaf cultivator, how could they let the culprit get away with it?
Nan Gongwei and Feng Yizhi had always made things difficult for the Yun Sect.
The conflict between the Three Sects erupted at this moment.
For a time, Yun Wuji became the sinner of the Three Sects.
It was one thing for him to die a horrible death, but he would be cursed for eternity. How could he accept this?
Yun Wuji looked at Mingshi Yin who was standing opposite him. He was hesitant.
His 90-foot avatar rippled slightly. Maintaining the Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar for an extended period of time was an arduous and thankless task.
When he heard that the entire Yun Sect would be buried with him, he had no other choice.
Yun Wuji looked at Mingshi Yin and said, "Alright."
"Get further away from me …" Mingshi Yin said impatiently.
"…"
None of the disciples from the Three Sects dared to interrupt. None of them spoke up for Yun Wuji.
An aggrieved expression appeared on Yun Wuji's face.
When he looked at the apathetic expressions on the others' faces, he suddenly felt that everything he had done was wrong.
Why?
Why did they have to share the benefits while he had to be the scapegoat?
The more he thought about it, the angrier he felt.
Sometimes, this was just how humans thought. The change happened in an instant.
Commit suicide for these people? It was not worth it!
"Fine … fine … fine …"
Yun Wuji kept retreating … He retreated further and further away.
All the disciples of Heaven's Virtue stared unblinkingly at Yun Wuji, especially the disciples of the Cloud Sect.
Yun Wuji continued to retreat, all the way until he was in between several barriers.
Whizz!
Yun Wuji's avatar shrank.
The barrier let out a clear resonating sound, and ripple-like waves appeared on it.
The instant the ripples spread out, Yun Wuji shot out of the barrier.
"Hm?" Mingshi Yin's eyes widened. "Hey, hey, hey … He's running away?"
The disciples of the Three Sects were dumbfounded. They looked at Yun Wuji who was fleeing, dumbstruck. They found this hard to believe.
Just a moment ago, he was questioning the others with a righteous air, acting like a hero of the Yun Sect. Now, he was running away?
"Uh …"
The barrier buzzed.
Yun Wuji flew further and further away. After maintaining his avatar for so long, coupled with his great mystique, he instantly passed through three barriers.
"Master, I'll … I'll …" Mingshi Yin's voice trailed off.
Because …
He saw Lu Zhou had already nocked an energy arrow.
Bang!
The energy arrow left the bow.
No one noticed it.
Their attention was focused on Yun Wuji, completely ignoring the number one expert in the world.
Zuo Yushu's attention was caught by the clear sound as well.
By the time she saw it, the energy arrow had already left the bowstring.
This arrow was very crisp, clean, and swift.
…
The others widened their eyes as they watched the blue energy arrow break through the barriers.
His speed was beyond their comprehension.
When Yun Wuji shrank to the size of a fist, the energy arrow hit its mark!
At first, there was no sound.
After a moment of delay, a loud bang was heard.
The sound waves spread across the sky.
Yun Wuji suddenly stopped in midair.
The energy arrow pierced through his back.
Yun Wuji's eyes widened. He lowered his head slightly and saw the blue energy arrow that pierced through his back.
"How … how's this possible? A Nine-leaf … god-god … archer? "
He was a Seven-leaf elite, after all. Even when he was struck by a fatal blow, he was still able to keep himself afloat.
However, he could only keep himself afloat for a short while.
Shortly after, his Primal Qi leaked out of his dantian's sea of Qi.
However, the energy arrow did not vanish. It remained lodged in his chest.
When he could no longer keep himself afloat …
He fell in a straight line.
He fell into the forest and vanished from sight.
"Ding! Killed a target. Reward: 1,500 merit points."
The Heaven's Virtue was silent.
When Yun Wuji landed, everyone seemed to be in a daze.
Their eyes were brimming with shock.
This included Zuo Yushu.
Ji Tiandao, whom Zuo Yushu knew, had never mastered such an archery skill.
How could he easily pierce a Seven-leaf elite from such a distance?
Apart from a Nine-leaf cultivator, who else could do this?
The members of the Evil Sky Pavilion felt relieved.
They had seen Lu Zhou kill a Seven-leaf cultivator more than once. At that time, they had marveled at Lu Zhou's prowess. Now that they thought about it, they finally understood the truth. Was it not logical for a Nine-leaf cultivator to kill a Seven-leaf cultivator?
Lu Zhou did not think much of it. After he put Unnamed away, he gauged the Heavenly Writing's extraordinary power.
Only half of it remained.
In order to play it safe, Lu Zhou had used quite a bit of his extraordinary power.
If he had used Unnamed at close range, he would only need one-third of his extraordinary power to kill Yun Wuji.
However, Lu Zhou would not allow Yun Wuji to escape from under his nose.
"He might as well commit suicide. At least, he'll have a good reputation … Ptooey!" Mingshi Yin suddenly said, breaking the silence.
"That's right … How can he run away just like that? He's even more shameless than my Fourth Senior Brother!"
"…"
The others regained their senses.
Lu Zhou glanced at Mingshi Yin. His wizened face did not change as he said indifferently, "If he wants to die, I'll fulfill his wish."
The surroundings were deathly silent again.
He looked around and asked, "Does anyone else from the Three Sects have any questions?"
This sentence was said very calmly and not too loudly.
But it was extremely powerful.
After a moment of silence, the Heaven Sect's Sect Leader, Nan Gongwei, was the first to bow and speak, "How would I dare to question you? He deserved to die. "
"Yes, he deserved to die!"
Feng Yizhi agreed.
When the two of them bowed, they swallowed their saliva and wiped the cold sweat off their faces.
Once the cunning hare is killed, the hound is cooked; when the birds are killed, the fine bow is hidden.
No one sympathized with Yun Wuji.
Yun Wuji was not worthy of sympathy.
At this time, the stone door to Heaven's Virtue's seclusion area slowly opened.
Yun Tianluo was pushed out.
His expression was dispirited, his eyes were powerless, and his aura was weak.
"Ancestor!"
"Greetings, Founding Master!"
The disciples of the three sects bowed.
Nan Gongwei and Feng Yizhi looked over at the same time.
The crowd parted.
Yun Tianluo leaned against the wooden chair as though he would stop breathing at any moment.
He struggled to lift his head. He looked at Lu Zhou listlessly. He forced a smile on his wizened face as he said, "I knew … you'd come."
Lu Zhou stepped forward with his hands on his back.
Everyone else, retreat!
Give up the space in the middle.
Lu Zhou stood in front of Yu Shangrong. He swept his gaze across Yu Shangrong and knew what was going on. He said, "Your great limit is up, and yet, you're still holding on?"
He sensed that Yun Tianluo was on his last breath.
As soon as these words came out.
Nan Gongwei, Feng Yizhi, and the Three Sects' disciples were in an uproar.
Yun Tianluo said nonchalantly, "Brother Ji, you've noticed … Cough, cough … Cough, cough."
After a bout of violent coughing, Yun Tianluo continued, "I have regrets in my heart, so … I don't want to leave."
Lu Zhou shook his head and said,
"Stubborn."
"So be it …" Yun Tianluo nodded.
"You could've lived for another ten years … Who hit you?" Lu Zhou asked.
A stone stirred up a thousand ripples.
Nan Gongwei and Feng Yizhi were shocked.
The two of them knelt and bowed at the same time.
"Ancestral Master, which bastard dares to sneak attack you? Why didn't you tell me? "
"How dare you hurt our Ancestor Master! I'm going to tear him to pieces. "
Yun Tianluo waved his hand.
"No need."
The two of them were puzzled.
Yun Tianluo said, "Didn't Yun Wuji get what he deserved?"
"It's Yun Wuji?"
"That thing that deceives its master and destroys its ancestor, it actually hid itself so deeply! Guards — "
Several elders nearby stepped forward.
"Your subordinate is here. “
"Find Yun Wuji's corpse, expose it for three days, and dismember it into a thousand pieces," Nan Gongwei said.
"Yes!"
Several elders rose into the air and flew towards the bottom of the Sacred Ground.
The hearts of the disciples shuddered upon hearing this.
Once the Heavenly Sect's Sect Master became ruthless, it would really take people's lives!
On the other hand, the disciples of the Cloud Sect revealed bitter expressions. Even now, they were still feeling nervous in their hearts.
With the death of the Sect Leader, the conflict between the three sects had completely intensified. All that was left was to settle the scores!
…
"Those who don't have anything to do with this should disperse," Yun Tianluo said nonchalantly.
Nan Gongwei said immediately, "Scram, all of you!"
The disciples of the three sects immediately dispersed.
Only the core members of the three sects, hundreds of cultivators at the elder level and above, were left in the holy land.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, "Do you know why I'm here?"
Yun Tianluo said, "Oh? Looks like I've overestimated myself … "
"That's not entirely true. Do you have any regrets?" Lu Zhou asked.
Although Yun Tianluo's ascension to the Nine-leaf stage had nothing to do with him, Lu Zhou could not find any other excuse. There was no need for him to explain himself.
Yun Tianluo sighed deeply and said, "I've studied the Nine-leaf stage for many years, and I've always wanted to break through that door. Alas, I've failed time and time again. In the end, I ended up like this.
"I brought this upon myself … I brought this upon myself.
"Throughout the 100 years, there's only one thing I've done right …"
His tone deepened as he said, "That's giving the item in the chessboard to you, Brother Ji."
Lu Zhou's expression remained the same, but he cursed inwardly.
'Old geezer, you've gone too far.
Do you really think that my attaining the Nine-leaf stage has anything to do with your lousy chessboard? '
"All my life, I've wanted to see the world of the Nine-leaf stage … This is my greatest regret. If you can fulfill this regret of mine, Brother Ji, I'll remember your kindness even in death. Otherwise … I won't die in peace. "
"…"
Why did Yun Tianluo's words sound so horrifying?
At this moment, Zuo Yushu spoke up.
"Yun Tianluo, it's been so many years since we last met. Why are you so sentimental?" Zuo Yushu said.
Yun Tianluo was taken aback. He turned to look at Zuo Yushu. "You are?"
"I'm Zuo Yushu."
When Yun Tianluo heard this, his eyes widened. The image of a peerless beauty from 500 years ago appeared in his mind. He exclaimed incredulously, "Miss Zuo?! It's you! "
Blergh!
Mingshi Yin walked to the side and made a retching gesture.
However, nobody cared about what he thought.
Zuo Yushu frowned slightly. "You should address me differently. I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep at night if I hear it."
"…"
An awkward expression appeared on Yun Tianluo's face.
Zuo Yushu was the target of many people's suitors.
However, at that time, Zuo Yushu was unyielding like a man. She wholeheartedly pursued the Confucian Path and had no desire for love.
500 years had passed, and the world had changed. She had aged and the years had changed. The only thing that remained unchanged was the memories of the past.
"How do you want me to fulfill your regrets?" Lu Zhou asked.
"I'm not asking for much … I just want to see what a Nine-leaf cultivator looks like," Yun Tianluo said.
Yun Tianluo said.
The others looked at him expectantly.
This included Zuo Yushu.
She wanted to see a Nine-leaf avatar more than anyone else.
Mingshi Yin, Leng Luo, Hua Wudao, and Little Yuan 'er wanted to see a Nine-leaf avatar as well. Even though they had seen it before.
Something stirred in Lu Zhou's heart.
'Fortunately, I have a Disguise Card. Otherwise, you old geezer wouldn't be able to rest in peace.'
With this thought in mind, Lu Zhou said, "Alright."
He raised a palm and circulated his dantian's sea of Qi.
A Disguise Card appeared in his palm before it shattered.
A unique power gathered in his dantian's sea of Qi. An avatar appeared …
Whizz!
A loud sound of resonating energy resounded throughout Heaven's Virtue.
The core disciples of the Three Sects widened their eyes as they looked at the 150-foot avatar before them.
Since they were too close, they had no choice but to look up. Alas, they could not see the top.
They looked down.
The huge Golden Lotus shone brightly and dazzlingly.
Nine plump leaves spun slowly as the Golden Lotus sat on it.
Everyone held their breaths.
This … was a Nine-leaf Golden Lotus avatar!
Was this really a Nine-leaf Golden Lotus avatar?!
Excitement, excitement, and excitement surged in their hearts.
This was the goal of many. Many people yearned for this avatar.
Every inch of light and every leaf looked so eye-catching and dazzling!
Moreover, how could it be so huge?!
Zuo Yushu staggered backward. She was completely stunned by this Nine-leaf avatar.
