Zhu Tianyuan rolled his eyes at Zhu Tianyuan. He was about to lecture Zhu Tianyuan when he coughed violently.
The head-on battle with the experts of the Seven Nations Alliance had caused him serious injuries. It was already good enough that he could walk out standing. How could he still have the strength to scold others?
Zhu Honggong was speechless. "Master has just finished lecturing me, and you're here again?"
Zhu Tianyuan pursed his lips.
"Didn't I praise you?"
"First scold, then praise."
"Son, you must mention this to your master when you have the chance … The Ancient Saint Cult is huge, and they're counting on you to inherit it," Zhu Tianyuan said.
"Got it," Zhu Honggong replied absentmindedly.
The others looked at the sky above Lu Zhou's courtyard.
The members of the Evil Sky Pavilion marveled at the converging power.
Although they were already used to the Pavilion Master gathering energy like this, they still liked to stop and watch, hoping to gain some experience from the Pavilion Master's cultivation. In particular, the gathering of life energy had benefited the four Grand Elders.
Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng's cultivation bases were also One-leaf Nascent Divinity realm.
A moment later.
The courtyard Lu Zhou was in fell silent.
In the room.
Lu Zhou looked at the seven leaves on the Golden Lotus with satisfaction.
Of course, this was not the end.
For the other cultivators in Great Yan, the Seven-leaf stage was indeed an unreachable realm. It signified status, identity, glory, splendor, wealth and rank. It was an inexhaustible luxury. No matter which sect he went to, he would at least be an elder.
Alas, Lu Zhou was still lacking. After all, he was once the Evil Sky Pavilion's Patriarch who stood at the peak of the Eight-leaf stage. He was the greatest expert in the world.
Lu Zhou did not stop improving his cultivation base. Instead, he muttered to himself,
"Use it."
After the sound of the end of use.
Apart from seeing the Golden Lotus Leaf dissipating into specks of starlight and entering his dantian's sea of qi, the Golden Lotus Leaf item on the system interface also dimmed. Then … it disappeared.
Alright.
The system was so sly that he had to rely on himself for everything.
Clearly, he would have to rely on his own abilities to break through from the Eight-leaf stage to the Nine-leaf stage.
In that case, what was the Nine-leaf stage like?
The Nine-leaf stage that Lu Zhou experienced with the Peak Card was not worth his time. An unlimited consumption of energy was almost impossible. Jiang Wenxu momentarily lost his composure and forgot to think rationally. He was unable to make a judgment. But if one thought about it carefully, one would realize that no matter what realm one was at, one would not be able to consume energy without limit.
The energy once again converged above the courtyard.
It had become much stronger than before.
Lu Zhou could sense that the Primal Qi in his dantian's sea of Qi was much denser than when he was at the Seven-leaf stage.
Starting from the Five-leaf stage, cultivators would experience a qualitative leap with every additional leaf.
The transformation from the Seven-leaf to the Eight-leaf stage was bound to be much greater than before.
Lu Zhou summoned his avatar again.
The miniature little golden man avatar appeared on his palm.
At the same time, golden energy halos began to sink from his waist.
Round and round.
The golden lotus down below also seemed to be rotating much faster than before.
He could sense that the golden lotus was becoming more plump and brighter under the constant supply of energy. This was a sign that a breakthrough was imminent.
The higher a cultivator went, the more difficult it became.
Who else could sprout two leaves in a row like Lu Zhou?
However, Lu Zhou was no ordinary cultivator.
If Ji Tiandao's cultivation base was at the peak of the Eight-leaf stage, the time he spent transmigrating to this day was merely the lowest point of his life. Even if he returned to the Eight-leaf stage, he was merely recovering. In the eyes of the world, he was already the first Nine-leaf cultivator in the world.
He was still lacking the Eight-leaf stage.
The energy halos continued to fall and sink into the golden lotus beneath his feet.
The golden lotus began to buzz as well.
Shortly after, his dantian's sea of Qi became unbearably hot. His Primal Qi cultivation base was filled to the brim as well.
His Seven-leaf cultivation base was at its peak.
Lu Zhou could clearly sense that every time the energy halos landed on his feet, his dantian's sea of Qi would continue to grow.
Crack!
A crisp and pleasant sound rang in the air.
Something stirred in Lu Zhou's heart as he looked at the golden lotus.
The speed at which the golden lotus was spinning had slowed down. As expected, the golden lotus had grown larger. At the same time, new leaves had sprouted in the empty space.
This meant Lu Zhou had attained the Eight-leaf Nascent Divinity realm!
His cultivation base had returned to the peak!
At the same time, Lu Zhou felt the walls of his dantian's sea of Qi had been breached and expanded several times.
Whether it was in terms of cultivation base or sensation, he was much stronger than when he was at the Six-leaf stage.
Lu Zhou clenched his fist.
His golden lotus avatar vanished.
He did not leave immediately. Instead, he closed his eyes and savored the feeling of entering the Eight-leaf stage.
…
Meanwhile.
The Evil Sky Pavilion's cloud-splitting chariot crossed Heaven's Moat.
It flew toward Liang Province.
Mingshi Yin was manning the helm. He looked ahead and said, "We'll reach Liang Province soon after we cross Heaven's Moat."
Leng Luo, Pan Litian, and Yu Zhenghai looked coldly at the two people who were sitting limply on the deck: Angui and Lanhai.
One of them was the King of Lou Lan, and the other was the Bonar Family Leader.
Ever since Lu Zhou's Nine-leaf cultivator swept through the four allied nations, the remaining remnants were not a match for them. Even if they were, they did not dare to act recklessly. In order to atone for his crimes, Angui brought Lanhai with him on the cloud-splitting chariot to beg for forgiveness from Lu Zhou.
"Elders, please put in a good word for me when we meet the old mister later," Angui said in a trembling voice.
"Of course …" Leng Luo replied.
As soon as Angui finished speaking, Pan Litian said, "Old Leng, are you really going to plead on his behalf? It's best to kill a two-faced person like him with a single slap. "
Angui. "…"
When he heard this, his face turned ghastly pale.
Mingshi Yin could not be bothered with Angui. Instead, he pointed at the corpses at the bottom of Heaven's Moat and said, "Look!"
Leng Luo, Pan Litian, and Yu Zhenghai's attention was caught. They looked in the direction Mingshi Yin was pointing.
Trees were snapped, and corpses were strewn all over the place.
From Heaven's Moat to Liang Province, it seemed as though something had rammed through it. The five-finger-deep pit formed a straight line.
The cloud-splitting chariot followed this trail and flew toward Liang Province.
Leng Luo said, "The seven allied nations have entered Liang Province. I'm afraid they're in danger. Be careful. "
Three days passed.
The four of them were worried about Liang Province as well.
Therefore, after they dealt with the matter in Lou Lan, they flew toward Liang Province without stopping.
Along the way, they occasionally saw signs of battle.
It was a scene of desolation. Not a single inch of land was left intact.
Angui and Lanhai were shocked when they saw the scenes below the flying chariot.
The flying chariot slowed down as well.
The aftermath of the battle left everyone in a daze.
War was cruel.
The ambitious barbarians would never understand this. They tried to gain benefits through war.
What did they get in the end?
Bam!
"Ahh!"
A shrill cry resounded in the heavens and earth.
Yu Zhenghai stomped on Angui's foot.
After Angui recovered from the pain, he said in a daze, "This … this has nothing to do with me!"
Yu Zhenghai said, "Can't I stomp on you if it has nothing to do with you?"
"Uh … I can, I can!" Angui pressed a hand to his chest.
Lanhai was so frightened that he wet his pants. His back was drenched in sweat.
"We've arrived at Liang Province."
The others looked down at Liang Province.
After the battle, many cultivators were flying around at low altitudes to rebuild the city.
On the city walls, cultivators were flying back and forth to clean the bloodstains.
Below the city walls, groups of Great Yan cultivators were dragging the corpses away.
Bam!
"Ahh!" Angui screamed again.
It was even more shrill than before.
Yu Zhenghai did not wait for Angui to speak. He said, "I was in a bad mood, so I stepped on you. Please forgive me."
"No, no, no … I dare not …"
Winner takes all.
Although he was the ruler of a nation, he could only endure it.
…
Meanwhile.
Inside a room in Liang Province's city.
Lu Zhou opened his eyes and stood up slowly.
After stretching his limbs, all that was left was to deal with his lifespan. According to Luo Shiyin's notes, he would need 1,200 years to reach the Nine-leaf stage. In other words, he would need at least 876 Reversal Cards to maintain his current state and reach the Nine-leaf stage.
Currently, he only had 33 Reversal Cards.
His cultivation base had risen by two leaves. He wondered if the value of the Reversal Cards had risen as well.
Just when he was about to use the Reversal Cards, a voice rang from outside.
"Master, Eldest Senior Brother is back! He has the memory crystal with him. "
"Let them in."
"Understood!"
Peak.
