The Judge's Brush that was glowing with golden light instantly lost its luster.
Liu Gu released his grip. The Magistrate Brush flew back and landed on the inkstone.
After the shining Golden Lotus was severed, it slowly fell to the ground and vanished.
Just as they had experimented, the upper half of the avatar was reduced from the Eight-leaf stage to the Seven-leaf stage, Six-leaf stage … Primal Qi dissipated.
Everything returned to zero.
Liu Gu felt a scorching power in his dantian's sea of Qi. The power urged his dantian's sea of Qi to absorb the remaining avatar.
The avatar returned.
Liu Gu broke out in a cold sweat.
He sat down with his legs crossed.
He was relieved that the pill was showing its effects.
His years of trial and error had finally paid off.
His chaotic Primal Qi gradually calmed down.
Liu Gu smiled faintly. He closed his eyes and ordered, "Men."
Another attendant walked in from outside the hall.
"Your Majesty."
"From this day forth, I'll cultivate in seclusion."
"Understood."
This meant that he would not ask about anything unless it was important.
The attendant who served the emperor was not surprised by this. Over the years, His Majesty rarely interfered with state affairs. Most of the time, the prime minister and the civil and military officials were in charge.
In Liu Gu's opinion, all he had to do was capture the Imperial guards, the commander-in-chief of the three armies, and control the Divine Capital. Then, he would be invincible.
Now that a Nine-leaf cultivator had appeared out of nowhere, if he did not attain the Nine-leaf stage in a short time, the entire Divine Capital would fall into the hands of others sooner or later.
Even if the Evil Sky Pavilion did not have a Nine-leaf cultivator, the appearance of the cultivation method of severing the Golden Lotus would surely improve the strength of the other sects.
As the monarch of a nation, he had to stand at the top.
…
Inside the eastern pavilion of the Evil Sky Pavilion.
After Lu Zhou confirmed that there were no new changes on the parchment drawing, he returned to the rush cushion and sat down with his legs crossed.
At the same time, he glanced at the system dashboard.

Lu Zhou was surprised that he had obtained more than 20,000 merit points from the trip to the Three Sects.
Of course, the majority of the kowtows came from the disciples of the three sects. Unfortunately, there were conditions for kowtowing. Otherwise, they could go around threatening the great sects to kowtow.
Banish all thoughts.
Lu Zhou did not stand on ceremony. He drew ten consecutive 'Thank you for your patronage'.
Then, he meditated on the Heavenly Book.
What a painful realization.
He was used to it.
He noticed that he had accumulated 53 Reversal Cards.
Based on the outside world's understanding of him as a Nine-leaf cultivator, it should not be a problem for him to extend his lifespan slightly.
Lu Zhou did not hesitate to use 10 Reversal Cards.
The surrounding vitality energy began to gather.
Hu –
It was as if a strong wind was blowing.
Vitality surged.
Lu Zhou sensed that the commotion this time was much greater than before.
'Eh?'
This was different from the previous times. There was a clear sense of brutality.
When the vitality energy entered the old body, it was slightly agitated and repelled. However, it quickly assimilated into his body.
He glanced at his remaining life on the dashboard.
Remaining life: 16750 days.
"400 days for each Reversal Card?"
Was this the reason for the agitation and repelling?
The increase in days was beyond Lu Zhou's expectations.
If this was the case, it would be best if he stocked up on Reversal Cards in the future!
Reserving them could change a person's life.
However, he did not dwell on this. He closed his eyes and meditated on the Heavenly Writing scrolls.
…
On the plaza of the southern pavilion. Leng Luo told Zuo Yushu about the major happenings in the cultivation world recently.
Zuo Yushu was inwardly speechless.
"That gentlemanly man earlier is the sword path elite, the Sword Devil?"
"Yes."
"…"
"There's no need to worry too much. Mister Second is an honest and easy-going person. He's not a narrow-minded person," Leng Luo said.
"Back when I was living in seclusion in the canyon, I learned some bits and pieces of information from the disciples of the Zhencang Branch. He had heard of the famous Sword Demon. He was the one who created the hit list in the cultivation world. He caused chaos in the cultivation world, "Zuo Yushu said as she turned to face Leng Luo." Thank you for your guidance, Elder Leng. "
"You're welcome."
At this time, a violent surge of Yuan Qi from the east pavilion attracted the attention of the two.
Leng Luo hastily said, "Ignore them. Don't go to the east pavilion no matter what."
With that, he turned around and left.
Zuo Yushu nodded and looked in the direction of the east pavilion.
Curiosity killed the cat. This should be a Nine-leaf cultivation method. It was best not to go there.
…
Noon of the next day.
Dan Yang Mountain, Dan Yang Sect.
Smoke curled up from chimneys on the Heaven Offering Plaza.
The light blue barrier enveloped the entire Dan Yang Mountain.
Dozens of disciples formed a square formation on the square, practicing their swordsmanship.
At this moment, a black dot appeared in the distant sky, approaching from afar.
"There's an enemy invasion! Everyone, on guard! "
The Dan Yang Sect disciples drew their swords and looked at the sky.
A sudden visit like this, without any prior notice, and not coming up from the foot of the mountain, usually meant that the visitor did not come with good intentions.
The Dan Yang Sect knew it was a tense time. Hence, the entire Dan Yang Mountain was guarded.
After the news of the survival pills spread, there were countless cultivators who visited the Dan Yang Sect every day.
If they did not invite the Penglai Sect's elites to help them, the Dan Yang Sect would have been plundered a long time ago.
Being skilled in pill refinement did not equate to having a profound cultivation base.
"Invite the seniors from the Penglai Sect over."
"Understood."
As they spoke, the black dot arrived outside the Dan Yang Sect's barrier.
Due to the distance, the Dan Yang Sect disciples could not see his face.
However, anyone who could ride a mount to Dan Yang Mountain was not to be underestimated.
"Who are you?" A disciple pointed his sword at the sky.
"I'm Yu Shangrong," Yu Shangrong said honestly.
His name was announced.
The disciples on Dan Yang Mountain were taken aback.
"How many times has someone impersonated an Evil Sky Pavilion disciple?" someone muttered.
"For the sake of caution, we should treat him with respect. As long as we don't give him the pills, he won't be able to get away with it. "
The others nodded.
Yu Shangrong studied the barrier.
If he were an Eight-leaf cultivator, he could have broken through this barrier with the power of his Longevity Sword and the runes.
However, he was only at the Three-leaf stage.
"Brother, how do you prove your identity?" The leading disciple was smart. He was able to advance and retreat at will.
"Wu Dayong, the Sect Master of the Dan Yang Sect, can tell the difference … If he wasn't obsessed with pill refinement, his name would've been on the hit list." Yu Shangrong pushed away from Bi An's back lightly. He hovered in the air as though he was walking on flat ground. His tone was relaxed as he said, "I bear no ill will. Everything I said was out of kindness."
"…"
PS: I'm suddenly afraid of the cold. I'm so weak that I feel uncomfortable. There are only three chapters left today. The identities of the other ten disciples were confirmed, and the settings were set as well. It was time to prepare for her appearance. Hence, the plot was difficult to connect. Writers knew that connecting was the most difficult thing to write. Relationships were easier to write. If she was not in a good state, the plot would be sparse. I'm sorry, I'm going to bed early today. I wrote this chapter in a daze. I'll try to release more chapters in May to pay off my debt. It's the end of the month.
