Chapter 839: A Gathering of Elites
Lu Zhou was about to question Wei Junzi after he heard Wei Junzi describing him as a cunning old fox when he saw the beam of light as well.
“This the power of the Birth Charts?” Lu Zhou wondered out loud.
Wei Junzi turned around to look at Lu Zhou curiously. “Your speech and temperament indicate you’re not a new cultivator. How could you not even know this?”
“Then can you control three energy swords?” Lu Zhou retorted. Everyone had their flaws after all.
“Fine, you win.” Wei Junzi spread his hands helplessly. He really could not control three energy swords. “The Birth Chart power is unique to the Birth Chart Beast’s life heart. This is crazy. Isn’t this just announcing the location to everyone?”
In fact, Feng Zihe deliberately released the Birth Chart power and released the beam of light.
The three elites from the Crimson Sun Sect stopped in their tracks immediately.
“Withdraw.”
The trio withdrew their avatars. A frown could be seen on all their faces.
“It’s too late. He wants to attract all the elites here.”
“No! It’s not easy to find the life heart of a Birth Chart Beast; how can we just give up?”
The trio hovered in the air and continued arguing among themselves.
“It’s too late!”
At this moment, flying chariots could be seen flying from the southeast, east, and northeast directions of the Sky Wheel Mountain Range.
In the west, cultivators riding on huge beasts were flying over swiftly as well.
At this moment, Feng Zihe laughed maniacally as he said, “If I can’t have it, then all of you don’t even think about getting it!”
The three elites from the Crimson Sun Sect exchanged a look before one of them said, “Fine. The Crimson Sun Sect might not obtain the life heart, but you’ll definitely die!.”
At this moment, the life heart was like a hot potato. Whoever was in possession of it would only attract trouble.
In the end, the three elites from the Crimson Sun Sect flew to a corner and waited for the arrival of the other elites.
...
When Wei Junzi saw the elites coming from all directions, he exclaimed in surprise, “That person with the surname Lu is truly a cunning old fox! What an amazing trick. I really admire him!”
Lu Zhou frowned and said, “Trick?”
“Ha, I saw three great elites from Cloud Mountain fighting the Yong. Based on the situation at that time, Cloud Mountain should be able to kill the Yong. Therefore, there’s only one possibility. This is all orchestrated by Cloud Mountain. The old fox probably wants to reap the benefits of the fisherman.” Wei Junzi did not hesitate to voice out his speculations.
“Why were you near Cloud Mountain?” Lu Zhou asked.
“Brother Lu, don’t ask.”
“Then, why did you bring me here?” Lu Zhou continued to ask.
Those who came to the Sky Wheel Mountain Range and Valley only had one objective: to obtain the life heart of the Birth Chart Beast. Lu Zhou could not figure out why Wei Junzi would ask him to follow him here. After all, an extra person was an extra competitor.
A smile appeared on Wei Junzi’s face as he said, “You’ll know in a while. Don’t worry, I won’t harm you.”
At this moment, three flying chariots and an enormous flying beast appeared above Sky Wheel Valley.
At the same time, the cultivators from the Crimson Sun Sect flew up into the sky as well.
“Sun Jie of the Crimson Sun Sect greets all the seniors.”
The trio from the Crimson Sun Sect could acutely sense the formidable auras within the three flying chariots.
Nevertheless, the trio was left standing for a long time. No one paid any attention to them at all.
In the end, someone from the red flying chariot on the easternmost side broke the silence. “Hural, there’s nothing for you here. Leave.”
The cultivator riding the flying beast was muscular and had a strange appearance. Upon hearing these words, he did not object. Instead, he bowed at the red flying chariot and said, “Farewell.”
Hural was a foreign tribesman. He knew the three flying chariots were from Great Tang. Although he coveted the life heart, he did not dare to fight for it under these circumstances. Therefore, he could only leave obediently.
Meanwhile, the trio from the Crimson Sun Sect did not even dare to breathe loudly.
Similar to the red flying chariots, the other two flying chariots were magnificent as well. However, they were much bigger than the red flying chariots.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the valley was incredibly oppressive. Coupled with the dim light of the dusk, it was even more stifling.
At this moment, the person in the red flying chariot said in a slightly surprised tone, “The True Kunlun Sect and the Void Sect really have produced Ten-leaf elites...”
“Court Master Yu, it has been a long time since we last met.” A voice rang from the True Kunlun Sect’s flying chariot in the northeastern horizon.
“How rare for Court Master Yu to pay us a visit...” A mocking voice rang from the Void Sect’s flying chariot following that.
At this moment, the beam of light was still shining toward the horizon. It was this beam of light, the power of Birth Charts, that had attracted them here.
The pillar of light was the power of their fates. It was the most enticing treasure that had attracted them here. All of them would gladly pay a huge price to obtain it.
At this moment, the Sky Martial Court, the True Kunlun Sect, and the Void Sect surrounded the beam of light in a three-way formation.
Meanwhile, the other sects and cultivators who arrived late at the Sky Wheel Mountain Range could only watch from afar. Moreover, they did not dare to approach. Since the strong sects were there, how could they stand a chance at all?
The atmosphere in the sky above the valley was heavy and silent.
After a long time, Yu Chenshu, who was sitting in the red flying chariot, said without beating around the bush, “I’m determined to obtain the life heart. I’m willing to compensate the True Kunlun Sect and the Void Sect. heart of life. I will not yield.”
Yu Chenshu, this elite, was really direct with his negotiation.
...
Meanwhile, Wei Junzi grew excited upon hearing these words. He grabbed his companion before putting his index finger to his lips, gesturing to his companion to keep quiet.
...
After Yu Chenshu finished speaking, a deep laughter rang from within the True Kunlun Sect’s flying chariot. “How does Court Master Yu intend to compensate us? This is the life heart of a Birth Chart Beast, after all.”
“I’m curious as well. How do you plan to compensate us.”
Although it seemed like it was a three-way negotiation, it was quite obvious that the True Kunlun Sect and the Void Sect were on the same side at this moment.
It was like a scene out of the Three Kingdoms.
At this time, Lu Zhou studies the huge flying chariots. There were quite a huge number of people surrounding the flying chariots.
For these people to be able to negotiate with the Sky Martial Court so confidently, the two sects must have had a Ten-leaf elite sometime over the past 2,000 years. Since the life heart of a Birth Chart Beast had appeared, it was only natural that the two sects would no longer conceal their strength or bid their time.
“A desolate-grade weapon, 10,000 supreme grade talismans, five heaven-grade weapons, three top-grade cultivation methods of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism for each of you,” Yu Chenshu said emotionlessly.
“The Sky Martial Court is truly rich and generous. Back then, the Sky Research Court created so many things... It really makes one envious,” the person from the True Kunlun Sect said.
“The foundation of the Sky Research Court still exists. Our Void Sect is aware we’re no match for it,” the person from the Void Sect said mockingly.
Yu Chenshu ignored the two sects’ sarcastic words and said, “Let’s not beat around the bush. Just tell me if you agree or not.”
“Court Master Yu, you’re a little hasty today... It seems like it isn’t enough just to send a person here...” the person from the True Kunlun Sect said again.
The person from the Void Sect said in agreement, “Well, it’s not a surprise since we’re talking about a Birth Chart Beast and its life heart. However, a desolate-grade weapon... I’m afraid...”
Powerful sects, naturally, looked down on things below the desolate grade. Moreover, the Sky Martial Court had a strong foundation and did not lack these weapons.
At this moment, Sun Jie from the Crimson Sun Sect suddenly stepped forward and said, “Seniors, please allow me to speak. The life heart is now in the possession of a Nine-leaf cultivator in the valley. He intentionally unleashed the power of the Birth Chart. This isn’t the time to argue. If the power of the Birth Chart is exhausted, the life heart would lose the ability to help one activate one’s Birth Chart. Why don’t I go down and retrieve the life heart first?”
There was no response from the three flying chariots.
...
In the meantime, Lu Zhou stroked his beard as he fell deep into his thoughts. He had to let those people fight among themselves. If the three forces successfully came to an agreement, his plan would have failed.
Wei Junzi turned around before he raised his hand and erected a soundproof barrier. His Primal Qi did not fluctuate at all. He chuckled softly and said, “You act rather old-fashioned...”
Lu Zhou’s gaze landed on Wei Junzi. After sizing him up for a moment, he said in a cold tone, “Why? Are you planning to scheme against me?”
