A Ten-leaf Golden Lotus hovered in the air.
The golden karmic power made the 200-foot avatar even more dazzling.
Those who saw this avatar would look up in awe.
As for Nie Qingyun and the others, they immediately understood that Senior Lu was finally going all out!
This sword had proven his unparalleled strength!
It was stunning.
It was clean and precise.
…
The huge energy sword pierced through the Yong's heart without missing a beat.
The scene seemed to have frozen. The Yong seemed to have forgotten to struggle. It did not even have the time to feel the pain from its internal organs before it felt its life slipping away.
Nie Qingyun, Yu Zhenghai, and Yu Shangrong looked at the sword with mixed emotions.
It was neither flashy nor elegant.
It was such an ordinary sword thrust forward.
It was as though it had pierced through tofu.
How could a defense-type Birth Chart Beast be pierced so easily?
After a brief moment of silence and stillness, the Nightmare Beast felt a wave of intense pain and let out an even louder scream.
Unlike before, this time, its cry contained powerful sound waves.
The Primal Qi in the beast's body was released. It rippled like waves.
"Retreat!"
Nie Qingyun retreated in the air.
There was no need for him to take this attack head-on.
Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong retreated as well.
Lu Zhou, who had just attained the Ten-leaf stage, was the closest to the Yong.
He had expended almost half of his extraordinary power with this strike, and yet, he could not kill it with a single strike.
The Birth Chart Beast's tenacity had exceeded Lu Zhou's expectations.
Lu Zhou immediately retracted Unnamed. He folded his palms and retracted his avatar. His heart was as still as water, and his heart was as still as a Buddhist Dhyana Mudra.
He made a series of hand seals.
The Dhyana Mudra blocked the sound technique. The Dhyana Mudra resonated and buzzed.
Lu Zhou, who was a Ten-leaf karmic fire cultivator, blocked the sound technique perfectly.
"Let's see how long you can last!"
Lu Zhou was enraged.
Unnamed appeared in his hand again.
The blade shone with a faint blue radiance. Although the Birth Chart Beast was skilled in defense, it could not withstand the extraordinary power and black runes.
Lu Zhou flew out and brandished Unnamed.
With every swing of the sword, the Yong was left with a gash.
The Yong gave up on the delicacy before it. It endured the pain and fled.
Lu Zhou gave chase.
The Yong was already injured by Nie Qingyun, Yu Zhenghai, and Yu Shangrong. Now that it was struck by Lu Zhou's sword and burned by the Ten-leaf karmic fire, it would not take long before it died.
However, Lu Zhou did not let his guard down.
Instead, he used his great divine ability and flashed in front of it, holding the sword with both hands.
An energy sword several times larger than the previous one slashed at the Yong's head like a guillotine.
Puff —
…
"This …"
Nie Qingyun, Yu Shangrong, and Yu Zhenghai hovered nearby. When they saw this, their expressions froze.
The disciples of Cloud Mountain all had exaggerated expressions on their faces.
He found it hard to believe.
The Yong beast was split into two and fell from the sky.
The Birth Chart Beast that had suddenly appeared was split apart by Senior Lu's sword.
Lu Zhou had only used his extraordinary power to deal a fatal blow because he was certain that Unnamed could break through its defenses.
This was the safest way.
He did not want to waste time on the chase. If he got too far away from the Cloud Mountain, there would be more variables.
The appearance of the Birth Chart Beast would surely be noticed. Thus, he could only end the battle as soon as possible.
This sword strike …
It was simple and unadorned, but it was terrifying.
On the treetop of a towering tree far away from Cloud Mountain.
The cultivators looked at the soul-stirring sword strike with their mouths agape. They were stunned for a long time.
"F * ck! It's a Ten-leaf karmic fire beast! "
"What color is that? It's blue and gold for a while!"
"My eyes must be playing tricks on me. I think I'm too far away to see it clearly."
"I'll send a letter to the Sky Martial Court right now."
"Send my a * s … Why should I be so diligent? Just give me a few talismans. That's a Ten-leaf karmic fire beast. Why are we getting involved? Stop looking and retreat! "
"Boss, what color is that? Ah! Boss, I was wrong! "
…
With a loud boom, the Birth Chart Beast, Yong, fell to the ground.
"Ding! Killed Birth Chart Beast, Yong. Reward: 6,000 merit points."
Nie Qingyun and the others finally regained their senses. They were shocked that Senior Lu no longer suppressed his cultivation base and revealed his Ten-leaf cultivation base. As expected, he was powerful. They were both Ten-leaf cultivators, and he knew the difference between them.
"Congratulations on killing the Birth Chart Beast, Senior Lu."
"Master." Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai cupped their fists at the same time.
Lu Zhou had already retracted his avatar and Unnamed. He nodded and dove.
He hovered above the Yong for a moment as he searched for the life heart.
Nie Qingyun said, "The Birth Chart Heart should be near the heart."
Lu Zhou said, "Not necessarily. Most wild beasts that have begun cultivating have mutated. For beasts like this, their internal organs and bones are much stronger. The heart is the heart, and the life heart is a crystal core condensed from life force. The two can't be equated. "
"I'm enlightened. I was too slow-witted." Nie Qingyun looked ashamed.
Lu Zhou raised his hand slowly.
He cleared the weeds and trees in the surroundings.
In just a blink of an eye, only the Yong's carcass was left.
Nie Qingyun, Yu Zhenghai, and Yu Shangrong stood nearby.
"This is the first time I've seen such a powerful golden karmic power," Nie Qingyun said in awe.
"What's the difference between this and red karmic power?" Yu Zhenghai asked.
"When red karmic power burns, it's a red flame. It's similar to the flames of the common people. The golden karmic power is more like a scorching fire. "
"Who's stronger and who's weaker?"
"That's hard to say. Those who possess karmic power are rare to begin with. However, based on Senior Lu and Ye Zhen's battle, there's not much of a difference. Back then, Senior Lu had suppressed his cultivation base to the Nine-leaf stage. If he had used his Ten-leaf karmic power, Ye Zhen wouldn't have been a match for you, "Nie Qingyun said.
At this moment.
At this moment, Lu Zhou saw a life heart shining with a red radiance.
He waved his hand.
The life heart flew into his palm.
"Ding! Obtained the life heart of a Birth Chart Beast, Yong. Provides 1,500 years of life. You may initiate a Birth Chart. Birth Chart Ability: Defense."
Nie Qingyun's eyes shone with extreme envy.
"Senior Lu, is this the Birth Chart Heart?"
Lu Zhou nodded and said, "Indeed, it's the Birth Chart Heart."
"Congratulations, Senior Lu!"
"Congratulations, master."
The three of them bowed in unison.
Lu Zhou put it away, intending to study it.
Since this was a Birth Chart Beast, it must have something to do with initiating Birth Charts. Lu Zhou's understanding of Birth Charts was limited. He would only make preparations to initiate Birth Charts after he gained a deeper understanding.
"Let's return."
Lu Zhou flew back to Cloud Mountain.
Meanwhile.
Inside the Sacred Rites Hall of the Sky Martial Court.
"Court Master, we've sent someone to Sky Wheel Mountain Range. There's a huge discovery in the rift valley on the east side of Sky Wheel Mountain Range. There are traces of a Birth Chart Beast there. It's highly likely that a Birth Chart Beast has been born there. "
The elders were overjoyed.
"This is good news. It's been so many years. It's about time for a cultivator to initiate Birth Charts in the red lotus domain!"
"Court Master, I suggest we depart for Sky Wheel Mountain Range now."
"That's right. We mustn't delay this matter!"
The elders agreed.
Yu Chenshu's expression remained calm. He did not respond to the suggestion immediately. Instead, he asked, "Is there any news about the Yong on Cloud Mountain?"
"In reply to your question, Lord Court Master, the scouts didn't reply … Our men are already close."
Jian Tingzhong said, "It won't be easy to take down a defense-type Birth Chart Beast. It's highly likely that the Birth Chart Beast will flee in the direction of the rift valley."
