Lu Zhou studied the Sky Chariot for a moment and inspected it. The Formation veins inscribed on it were indeed exquisite Formations for flight. After making sure there were no mistakes, he left the southern pavilion.
Zhu Honggong nudged Zhu Tianyuan with his elbow and said, "I thought you couldn't let go of me. As it turns out, you're here to give me something."
"You want to meet your master empty-handed? That's foolish, "Zhu Tianyuan said.
Zhu Honggong scratched his head and said, "You have a point."
"Son, how's your cultivation lately? The entire world is competing for the Nine-leaf stage. I'm afraid of death and don't dare to sever my lotus. I am very pleased that you have such courage. When you attempt the Nine-leaf stage, I'll personally watch over you, "Zhu Tianyuan said.
Zhu Honggong cleared his throat and said with a straight face, "That's … Severing my lotus is a trivial matter. It's not worth mentioning."
As soon as he finished speaking …
Duanmu Sheng walked out with his Overlord Spear in hand. He said, "Eighth Junior Brother, who's severing their lotus?"
"No, no, no … no one's severing their lotus." Zhu Honggong shuddered. He stood behind his father and waved his hands.
"…"
Duanmu Sheng looked at the two of them in confusion. Then, he said, "In that case, spar with me. My spear skills have improved recently."
Zhu Honggong had a bitter expression on his face. He instinctively took a step back.
Zhu Tianyuan asked in confusion, "Isn't practicing spear skills a good thing? Son, why do you look so pale? Forget it, I'll spar with you. Let's go. "
He had just arrived at the Evil Sky Pavilion and had nothing to do.
"Alright. Thank you, uncle." Duanmu Sheng cupped his fists.
"You're welcome. We're family …"
He was an Eight-leaf elite. If he could not even subdue a Five-leaf Evil Sky Pavilion's Five-leaf disciple, why should he be the Sect Master of the Ancient Saint Cult? He might as well retire and farm.
"Father, please don't go …"
"It's fine. Your father is capable of this." Zhu Tianyuan stepped forward and grabbed Duanmu Sheng's wrist. "Let's go. I'll spar with you. I'll spare you the entire day."
Zhu Honggong. "…"
Duanmu Sheng was greatly moved. He said, "In that case, I'll be thick-skinned and accept your kindness, uncle … It'll be even better if you cultivate every day." As he spoke, he grabbed Zhu Tianyuan's arm and walked out.
An ominous feeling rose in Zhu Tianyuan's heart. He stammered, "Practice every day?"
Duanmu Sheng nodded and said, "In the past, Elder Hua was the one who trained with me. At first, we trained once a day. Then, we trained once every three days. After that, she started avoiding me. Perhaps, I did something wrong and angered her. Uncle … Uncle? You don't look well? "
"No no no …"
"That's good. Time waits for no man, let's go —"
He grabbed Zhu Tianyuan and walked toward the training field at the mountainside. He was worried that this high-level sparring opponent would run away.
Oh no, I seem to have fallen into a pit.
…
Lu Zhou returned to the eastern pavilion.
Mingshi Yin was already waiting respectfully in the eastern pavilion. When he saw his master had returned, he bowed and followed his master into the hall and into his master's room.
As soon as he entered the room, he bowed and said, "Master, I'm ready."
Lu Zhou nodded in satisfaction.
"Alright."
"Master, do I need 1,200 years of life to reach the Nine-leaf stage?" Mingshi Yin asked.
Lu Zhou said, "Indeed, it requires 1,200 years of life."
"In that case … Master, please give me Chi Yao's Heart … I can't wait," Mingshi Yin said with a smile.
"Hmm?"
The tone of this word was lengthened, solemn and imposing.
Mingshi Yin cursed inwardly. He hastily lowered his head and said, "I was just kidding."
"Stop fooling around. This is an important matter. We must treat it seriously," Lu Zhou said.
"Your disciple understands. “
"Since you're ready, you can try it tomorrow," Lu Zhou said.
"Ah? Are you in such a hurry? "
Mingshi Yin did not expect him to attempt the Nine-leaf stage so soon. He was slightly shocked.
Lu Zhou said, "Your Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother are in trouble in the red lotus domain. Danger lurks everywhere … We can't delay this any longer."
"Master … If you leave, who's going to watch over Great Yan?"
Up until now, there had not been a second Nine-leaf cultivator in Great Yan.
"I'll take care of everything here before I head to the red lotus domain … Moreover, I'll only be there for a short while," Lu Zhou said.
"I understand."
At this moment, Lu Zhou extended his hand and said, "Separation Hook."
"Uh …" Mingshi Yin instinctively shrunk back. He was slightly reluctant. However, when he saw his master's solemn expression, he had no choice but to bring out his weapon and place it respectfully in his master's palm.
"You may leave."
"Understood."
After Mingshi Yin left.
Lu Zhou returned to the rush cushion and sat down with his legs crossed. He took out a Shining Stone and tossed it into the air as he began refining the Separation Hook.
After the Shining Stone's flames merged with the Separation Hook, Lu Zhou no longer bothered with it. He would succeed after one night.
Lu Zhou looked at his merit points.
Merit points: 8,640.
It was not practical to buy item cards directly. He could only obtain them through lucky draws.
"Lucky draw."
"Ding! Spent 50 merit points. 18 luck points. Reversal Card x10."
"Lucky draw."
"Ding! Spent 50 merit points. Thank you for your participation."
…
Early the next morning.
Lu Zhou opened his eyes from his meditative state.
He heard the sound of the Separation Hook falling to the ground.
He turned to look. The Separation Hook had been upgraded.
He raised his hand and controlled it with his energy. The Separation Hook flew back into his palm.
He circulated his Primal Qi slightly. Indeed, a faint radiance appeared on the hook's blade.
It was indeed a desolate-grade weapon.
At this moment, Si Wuya's voice rang from outside. "Master, everything is ready. Fourth Senior Brother is waiting for you in the southern pavilion."
"Alright."
Lu Zhou put the Separation Hook away and left the eastern pavilion.
When he arrived at the southern pavilion …
A square platform was built outside the southern pavilion. Mingshi Yin was sitting on the platform. He looked calm and composed.
"…"
When the others saw Lu Zhou, they bowed. "Pavilion Master."
"Master." The disciples bowed.
Lu Zhou looked at Mingshi Yin. "What a mess. What a scandal. Get down here. "
'It's all showy and useless stuff.'
Mingshi Yin shuddered and leaped off the platform.
'I can't even put on an act like master.'
Lu Zhou pointed at another corner of the Guide Pavilion.
Mingshi Yin bowed and said, "Understood."
Then, he walked over obediently.
The female disciples covered their mouths and giggled.
Little Yuan 'er waved her fist and said, "Fourth Senior Brother, you can do it!"
"Fourth Senior Brother, you can do it!"
Duanmu Sheng praised. He did not expect his Fourth Junior Brother, who used to be weaker than him, was about to reach the Nine-leaf stage. He could only blame himself for not working hard enough. He turned to look at Zhu Tianyuan and said, "I'll have to trouble you to spar with me in the future, uncle."
Zhu Tianyuan's fingers trembled slightly. With an unnatural expression on his face, he said, "Sure, sure … sure …"
…
The four elders of the Evil Sky Pavilion were filled with emotions as well. Although they knew Mingshi Yin's cultivation base was unfathomable and that he liked to conceal his strength, they did not expect Old Fourth to be the first to attempt the Nine-leaf stage.
They had come to watch the leaf-sprouting ceremony to gain some experience. There was no harm in watching.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, "Let's begin."
"Understood."
Under the watchful eyes of the members of the Evil Sky Pavilion, Mingshi Yin walked to the center of the courtyard.
He sat down with his legs crossed.
"It's embarrassing to have so many people watching … Should I do it in my room?" This was the first time he was being stared at by so many people. Indeed, he felt awkward. It was as though someone was peeping at him while he was bathing.
Lu Zhou frowned slightly. His tone deepened as he said, "If you won't open it, give it to someone else."
There are many who want to reach the Nine-leaf stage. You won't make a difference. '
"Don't … Master, I'll open it now!"
Mingshi Yin flipped his palm.
A miniature Eight-leaf Golden Lotus avatar appeared above his palm.
Lu Zhou said,
"Focus."
"Four Grand Elders, guard the four corners of the Southern Pavilion."
The four elders bowed at the same time. "Yes, sir."
The four of them flew up at the same time and landed on the roof of the hall surrounding the South Pavilion.
"Hua Yuexing."
"Your subordinate is here."
"Guard the highest point."
"Yes."
Hua Yuexing wielded the Falling Moon Bow and flew toward the top of the Evil Sky Pavilion.
"Everyone else, step back."
Everyone bowed and retreated.
Mingshi Yin collected his thoughts. The golden energy ring descended from the avatar's waist.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded.
Lu Zhou was the only one who stood in front of Mingshi Yin, observing his every move.
…
Meanwhile.
In the red lotus domain. In a dense forest in a valley several miles away from the Thousand Willow Monastery.
Yu Shangrong sat beside a tree. He had his Eight-leaf avatar in one hand and his Longevity Sword in the other.
His expression was the same as usual, and he looked calm.
Without much hesitation, he raised his left palm slightly. The Longevity Sword buzzed as it flew out of its scabbard. It pierced the heart of a beast above the forest and nailed itself to the tree trunk.
At this moment, the energy ring around the avatar's waist descended as well.
