Chapter 1006 - Turning the Tide
Chapter 1006: Turning the Tide
Shi Youran trembled as he asked, “Why is your Birth Chart Power infinite?”
Lu Zhou did not bother to reply to Shi Youran.
At this time, a cultivator standing not far behind Lu Zhou mustered up his courage and said, “Senior, P-Pu Yi! Kill Pu Yi!”
Lu Zhou turned around. “Pu Yi?”
“Pu Yi is the beast king that commands the beast tide. It’s there! Eh? It was there earlier? Where did it go?” the cultivator said anxiously.
“Are you sure?”
“I’m sure!” The cultivator nodded vehemently.
“Alright.” Lu Zhou’s expression was calm as he looked at the beast tide again.
Under the attacks of the Infinite Birth Chart Power, the fierce beasts were turning tail and fleeing.
Lu Zhou said, “Tell everyone this place is now safe.”
“Understood.” The cultivator was so moved that tears began to stream down his face.
Lu Zhou along with his Thousand Realms Whirling avatar flashed toward the beast tide.
At the same time, another wave of pillars of light appeared in the sky. It was like beacons of light in the sky.
“I… I feel so honored. That Thousand Realms Whirling expert actually spoke to me!” The cultivator was giddy with excitement.
“I couldn’t see the number of Birth Charts clearly.”
“Well, there’s no doubt there are many…”
Just one Thousand Realms Whirling expert was enough to turn the tide!
All the survivors of the beast tide in Southern Mountain City gathered and bowed in the direction of the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar.
Lu Zhou was relentless in his pursuit. With his heightened senses and powers, he killed all the fierce beasts, quickly obtaining merit points. Although more than half of the fierce beasts did not provide merit points, the ones that did reward him with an acceptable number of merit points. Apart from that, he also obtained six elementary life hearts. The six life hearts rewarded him with 36,000 merit points. He was also rewarded with merit points when 50,000 people worshipped him.
The fierce beasts seemed quite smart. They all ran in different directions to avoid capture.
Unfortunately, Lu Zhou did not give the fierce beasts a chance to flee very far. He continuously cast his grand technique, moving back and forth. He had to use his Birth Chart Power a few more times to deal with powerful Birth Chart Beasts.
After a while, Lu Zhou checked the time and discovered he had five minutes left. At this time, most of the fierce beasts had been mercilessly killed by his Birth Chart Power.
“Pu Yi…” Lu Zhou searched quickly. He spent a minute looking for it, but he could not find it at all.
“You want to find the beast king? You won’t be able to find it.” Shi Youran chuckled. At this time, he had already given up and accepted his imminent death.
Lu Zhou glanced at Shi Youran and said indifferently, “Initially, I planned to spare your life. However, I’m thinking I shouldn’t now…”
“Wait.”
Lu Zhou could not wait; he was running out of time. He tossed Shi Youran up into the air before he flashed above Shi Youran. Following that, he pressed his hand down.
Buzz!
The astrolabe that was now tens of thousands of feet wide covered the sky above the Southern Mountain City. An incredibly strong pillar of light shot down immediately.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
With that, Shi Youran’s body was pierced by the pillar of light as he dropped from the sky. As he fell, he looked at the countless pillars of light shooting out from the astrolabe. He suddenly felt it was worth it to die in such a manner. At least, he saw the most magnificent sight in his life. Thousands upon thousands of meters were filled with pillars of light. He finally understood why Lu Zhou had done this. How could Pu Yi hide or run in this situation?
As expected, Pu Yi suddenly jumped up from the ground and fled in fear.
Lu Zhou chased after Pu Yi and grabbed it with his hand. Two minutes was enough for him!
“Bast*rd! Where are you going?”
Lu Zhou slapped Pu Yi ten times in a row before he smacked it down to the ground. The difference in their strength was unreasonably big.
“Are you Pu Yi?” Lu Zhou looked at the fierce beast in the deep pit.
The fierce beast let out a strange cry and struggled for a moment. One could see the terror and unwillingness in its eyes. It kept shaking its head and looking at Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou was puzzled. After a moment, he asked, “Life heart? Do you know Ying Zhao?”
He could only think of Ying Zhao’s life heart that could attract this fierce beast’s attention. Following that, he brought Ying Zhao’s heart out.
Upon seeing Ying Zhao’s life heart, Pu Yi grew agitated and let out a strange cry.
“Why are you making so much noise? It’s not dead!”
“…” Pu Yi grew calm upon hearing Lu Zhou’s words. Then, it curled its tail up and became dispirited, looking like a dying fish.
Just as Lu Zhou was about to make a move, Pu Yi suddenly leaped up and sped away at lightning speed.
“It’s futile.” Lu Zhou flashed and appeared in front of Pu Yi.
Boom!
Pu Yi fell immediately. Its head was bleeding from the impact.
If not for the enhanced Peak Trial Card, Lu Zhou would not have been able to find Pu Yi with his four Birth Chart, let alone take it down. With his heightened senses and unlimited Primal Qi right now, it would have been strange if Pu Yi managed to escape.
Lu Zhou a palm strike followed by another ten palm strikes.
“Ding! One target killed. Reward: 10,000 merit points.”
10,000 merit points were the highest number Lu Zhou had obtained from killing a target so far.
Lu Zhou shook his head. It seemed like Pu Yi was acquainted with Ying Zhao. “It’s a pity you met me…”
Lu Zhou looked at the time and found he had a minute left. One minute was not enough to rush back to the Land of Chaos. However, he did not want to waste the one minute. In the end, he decided to study the 12 Birth Charts. He controlled his avatar and studied the Birth Charts and their abilities.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Pillars of light bombarded the ground.
The cultivators in the Southern Mountain City exchanged a look before they continued to watch the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar in the distance.
“This Thousand Realms Whirling expert is so meticulous. He doesn’t even spare the corpses of the fierce beasts.”
“That’s right. He must be afraid the intelligent beasts are playing dead. We’re really blessed to have such a person protecting the red lotus domain.”
“We’re really lucky!”
At this time, no one cared if the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar was red or golden. Faced with fierce beasts, even if it was black or gray, they would be the benefactors of Southern Mountain City as long as they were willing to help the city.
More and more people gathered to watch the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar flashed back and forth. The avatar even shot out karmic fire, burning the corpses of the fierce beasts and the forest. They became even more moved the longer they watched. This expert was really meticulous and considerate!
Soon after, the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar began to shrink rapidly, From 1,050 feet, it swiftly shrank to 450 feet. In a blink of an eye, it suddenly vanished into thin air. Due to a moment of discomfort, the owner of the avatar suddenly fell. However, when he was about to touch the ground, he landed steadily and nimbly.
“Such precise control! As expected of a Thousand Realms Whirling expert! If I can have such precise control, I’m willing to give up 100 years of my life!” someone said.
“It’s impossible for you. What the expert did earlier was that he gathered all the Primal Qi in the surroundings and let it all surge out at the correct timing. Without thousands and thousands of repetitions, it’s absolutely impossible for one to have such precise control.”
All the cultivators nodded in agreement.
Meanwhile, after Lu Zhou landed, he looked at the devastated battlefield and the charred corpses of the fierce beasts as he cursed inwardly. He had lost track of time earlier!
Lu Zhou put away Pu Yi’s life heart before he collected all the life hearts he could find on the battlefield.
Upon seeing this, more than 1,000 cultivators on the city walls quickly rushed over. When they were 100 meters away, all of them kneeled in the air.
“Thank you for your life-saving grace, senior!”
Lu Zhou glanced at them and waved his hand. “Rise to your feet and speak.”
“Senior, let us do the dirty work and help you collect the life hearts. Please wait for a moment.”
With that, more than 1,000 cultivators shot out in all directions and began to look for life hearts. There were not many Birth Chart Beasts so they had to search the corpses one by one.
In the past, there was a beast tide in the Southern Kingdom. At that time, the Black Tower Council annihilated all the fierce beasts and only managed to collect ten life hearts from Birth Chart Beasts.
Fortunately, it was not too difficult to distinguish the Birth Chart Beasts. In less than 15 minutes, the more than 1,000 cultivators concluded their search.
Following that, the leader of the group respectfully handed five Birth Chart Hearts.
In addition to the life hearts he obtained earlier, Lu Zhou managed to obtain twelve life hearts from the beast tide. From this, it was obvious the beast tide this time was much stronger than the beast tide in the Southern Kingdom in the past.
“Alright,” Lu Zhou said as he placed the life hearts into a bag.
Over 1,000 pairs of eyes looked at him enviously. Twelve of the resources that the Black Tower Council had been monopolizing for years suddenly appeared before their eyes; they would be lying if they said they did not have any ideas. However, who among them dared to ask for them from a Thousand Realms Whirling expert? Moreover, the fierce beasts were all killed by the expert.
“Do you want them?” Lu Zhou asked as he looked at the cultivators.
“No, no, no…” The cultivators shook their heads, terrified. How could they answer yes?
Lu Zhou replied, “Forget it if you don’t want them.
Lu Zhou looked at them and said.
The cultivators waved their hands repeatedly, not daring to ask for it.
Lu Zhou said indifferently, “Forget it if you don’t want it. Moreover, I have a need for the life hearts as well. You should all take care of yourselves.”
Everyone. “…”
