Lu Zhou controlled the Yong to fly at a moderate speed. In fact, the Yong was swaying a little.
It was as if he had been heavily injured.
He maintained his flying posture for two hours, crossing dozens of mountains, rivers, and jungles before arriving near the Sky Wheel Mountain Range.
As Lu Zhou looked at the Sky Wheel Mountain Range, he suddenly felt a sense of familiarity.
Apart from the height and vegetation, the terrain was similar to the golden lotus domain's natural moat.
Lu Zhou came to a halt and surveyed his surroundings.
"Thankfully, we didn't meet any cultivators along the way …"
Otherwise, he would have no choice but to kill.
He continued to fly forward and arrived above the Sky Wheel Mountain Range.
He looked at the surroundings of the mountain range.
The height of the Sky Wheel Mountain Range was not high, but it was very wide. The terrain was complex and rugged. Even after reaching the top of the mountain range, there was still no suitable place to land.
"Where will the Nightmare Beast be?"
Flying east from the Sky Wheel Mountain Range, passing through the most rugged foothills, he saw a sunken canyon.
"Grand Canyon?"
Lu Zhou's eyes lit up.
This was undoubtedly the best place for Vicious Beasts to hide.
There might be other Birth Chart Beasts inside as well.
Just as Si Wuya had said, a possibility was still a possibility. There were many possibilities in the world, and he needed to turn the possibilities into the inevitable …
A third of the canyon was covered with towering trees that blocked their vision.
"This is it."
After choosing a spot, Lu Zhou dove with the Yong.
The Yong's enormous body landed under the tree.
After doing this, Lu Zhou flew to a nearby hill and waited for his prey.
"Appearance Alteration Card."
He took out the Appearance Alteration Card and squeezed it gently.
The card shattered immediately.
This was a precaution … Cloud Mountain had many disciples, and many of them had seen him before. Aside from the incident with Ye Zhen, no one could guarantee that there were spies among the Cloud Mountain disciples. This was also the reason why he acted alone.
The effect of the Appearance Disguise Card was apparent.
He felt as if the wrinkles on his face were covered by some kind of cool mud, slowly twisting and changing. His hair was also changing color at an alarming speed.
In just a few breaths, Lu Zhou's appearance had undergone a drastic change.
He had changed from an old man with gray temples to a mature and steady middle-aged man.
Lu Zhou could sense the changes. He muttered, "When will I be able to disguise myself as a handsome young man?"
Recalling the scenes when he used the Appearance Alteration Card in the past, he looked younger each time.
Doubts arose in his heart. Did this card really increase the number of years of disguise as one's cultivation increased?
The middle-aged man was not bad. At the very least, no one would associate him with Yun Shan.
Lu Zhou looked up at the sun. Then, he sat down with his legs crossed and regulated his breathing to recover his cultivation base. Traveling with the Yong didn't consume much energy, but he liked to keep himself in peak condition at all times.
There was complete silence in the canyon.
Lu Zhou entered a cultivation state.
The coolness of the Purple Glazed Glass engulfed his entire body.
…
Meanwhile.
In the Sacred Rites Hall of the Sky Martial Court.
A disciple reported, "Dean, there's a new discovery. The Nightmare Beast has successfully escaped from Cloud Mountain and is flying towards the Great Rift Valley! "
Mo Buyan looked pleasantly surprised and said, "That's great! Yun Shan is indeed unable to take down a defense-type Birth Chart Beast! "
Jian Tingzhong said, "Dean, we can't wait any longer. We have to leave immediately. He had to take down the Birth Chart Beast while it was at its weakest. Even if we don't make a move, other forces will definitely make a move! "
Everyone present knew the significance of a Birth Chart Beast.
Even the youngest Elder had gone to the library to supplement his knowledge on this matter.
The life heart of a Birth Chart Beast was the key to activating one's Birth Chart. Who would not be tempted by it?
Yu Chenshu looked at the disciple. "Are you sure?"
"The scouting team we hired left a long time ago. I've mobilized our men to approach Cloud Mountain. Our men saw the Yong stumbling toward the Great Rift Valley with their own eyes. "
Yu Chenshu frowned and said, "Did Cloud Mountain's men give chase?"
"No."
Jian Tingzhong said, "They won't dare to go out unless that Lu fellow makes a move. Otherwise, Nie Qingyun will be the second Sikong Beichen. "
After a moment of consideration …
Yu Chenshu ordered, "Mo Buyan, Jian Tingzhong, come with me. The rest of you will guard the Sky Martial Court. "
"Understood."
Shortly after, a flying chariot rose into the air from the Sky Martial Court. It left Sky Martial Mountain and sped toward the west.
At this moment, Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai who were on their way to Sky Martial Mountain flew at a low altitude.
An hour later, when the two of them entered the mountain, they saw the Sky Martial Court's flying chariot streaking across the sky.
The two of them exchanged a glance before they sped up.
…
Sky Wheel Mountain Range.
Inside the valley.
Lu Zhou replenished the cultivation base he had lost during the flight. Out of curiosity, he activated the Heavenly Writing's power of hearing.
The power expanded swiftly.
He did not activate his Heaven's Eye so that he could conserve more of his extraordinary power.
The consumption of the power of hearing was still acceptable.
With Lu Zhou in the center, the power of hearing spread out.
Whispers could be heard in his ears.
"It's nearby. Keep your voice down. Don't alarm the Yong. We'll find out where it is and think of a way to deal with it. We'll be rich once we get our hands on the life heart. "
"Alright, let's end this quickly. When Cloud Mountain's men catch up, we won't be here anymore. Quick … "
Several cultivators flew toward the valley at a low altitude.
Lu Zhou activated the Purple Glazed Ceramic to conceal his aura.
Shortly after, several cultivators flew in the air.
Based on their auras, they were at least Nascent Divinity realm elites.
Lu Zhou remained silent. He glanced sideways at the Yong's carcass in the valley.
"It's so obvious, but you can't find it?"
The cultivators flew back and forth three times.
Finally …
"It's here!"
Excited voices rang out.
One of the cultivators dove down and landed next to the Yong.
"The Yong is dead?!"
The other cultivators arrived one after another and landed next to the Yong.
Expressions of disbelief and confusion could be seen on their faces.
"Strange, shouldn't the Yong be returning to its lair? How did it die here?"
"There's a fatal wound. Look …"
The young cultivator on the left kicked open the Yong's wound.
The Yong's carcass was split in half. The wound was neat and tidy.
The others were dumbstruck.
"Uh …"
At this moment, someone sighed.
"The Yong has been killed! We're too late! "
"What a shame. Someone beat us to it. Look at the wound, it must've been caused by a sword. The person who killed the Yong with a single strike must be a peerless sword path elite! "
The cultivators were filled with regret.
Just when they were about to leave …
"There's a life heart!"
The others were shocked. They hastily looked over.
One of the cultivators did not mind the mess. He pried the carcass open with his bare hands and retrieved the Yong's life heart.
The Heart of Life glowed a dark red, like the morning sun!
The cultivators widened their eyes as they looked at the life heart in pleasant surprise. It was a life heart that could be used to initiate Birth Charts!
They were so overwhelmed by joy that they didn't even think about why the person who killed the Yong Beast didn't take the life heart. In the next second, a cultivator on the right pulled out his saber and slashed at the head of the cultivator holding the life heart.
Bam!
The moment the head rolled off, the cultivator grabbed the life heart and held it in his arms. He leaped backward and flew to a nearby hill. He shouted, "Who dares to touch it? This is mine …"
