It was not as miraculous as the ruins of Transient City, but one could clearly feel the vitality energy was gathering from all directions.
Mingshi Yin sensed the energy and said, “The cultivation speed should be three times faster…”
“Considering the pillar’s basic spirituality and the lack of support from the ancient formation, I’m afraid it’d be difficult for the speed to reach the level in Transient City…” Kong Wen said.
“No, no, this is enough. If it’s like the Transient City, it can kill people…” Mingshi Yin said.
None of them wanted to experience that again. After that experience, they felt as though the world had changed.
Although the Pillar of Impermanence had been subdued by Lu Zhou, its pressure from before was still there.
“I have to say, the Pillar of Impermanence is really a rare treasure. Not only can it gather and absorb vitality energy, but it also has an independent space,” Kong Wen said.
In fact, the ability, the Vitality of the Universe, was not only gathering vitality energy. In a way, it was accelerating time, but it was different from controlling time. Time was not something ordinary people could control after all.
Lu Zhou had gained a deeper understanding of Venerable Master after spending time learning in the Unknown Land.
Lu Zhou raised his hand at this time. “Faster.”
The Pillar of Impermanence obeyed Lu Zhou’s order. It grew several times larger. The vortex grew accordingly as well.
Everyone felt a slight pressure bearing down on them immediately. Although it was slightly uncomfortable, they could feel the vitality energy seemed to have gotten richer.
With this, the energy would coarse through their Extraordinary Eight Meridians at a higher speed as well.
Mingshi Yin sensed his surroundings again before he said with a smile, “It’s about ten times faster. It’s just nice.”
Lu Zhou nodded and said, “Alright, go and cultivate.”
“Understood.”
“Old Fourth, Yuan’er, Conch, stay.”
While the trio stayed behind, the others left to find places in the forest to cultivate and rest. Since they knew not to disturb Lu Zhou, they went further away. None of them had any complaints. It was very good that they could cultivate in such a beautiful place with such a great environment.
After everyone left, Lu Zhou waved his hand, and the bag next to Qiong Qi flew over. Then, he brought out one of Yong He’s life hearts before throwing it to Mingshi Yin. He would keep the other two for now. Then, he brought two medium-quality life hearts and passed them to Little Yuan’er and Conch.
“When you activate your first Birth Chart, you can use elementary life hearts. However, considering your talents, these two intermediate life hearts are more suitable…”
The two life hearts were flight-type life hearts; it was very suitable for his two youngest disciples.
Little Yuan’er asked, “Master, what about Yong He’s life heart?”
After witnessing Yong He’s strength, would there be anyone who did not want its life hearts?
Lu Zhou said, “To use a beast emperor’s life heart to activate your first Birth Chart isn’t appropriate. Moreover, Yong He’s sound technique contradicts Conch’s sound technique. I’ll find a more suitable life heart for you in the future.”
“Thank you, master!” Little Yuan’er nodded excitedly. The little Fire Phoenix standing on her shoulder nodded as well.
“Alright, you may leave.”
“Understood.”
After his three disciples left, he was left alone by the lakeside.
Since Lu Wu stayed outside the range of the Pillar of Impermanence as a guardian, ordinary fierce beasts did not dare to approach at all. The flying beasts in the air chose to take a detour when they flew close.
Lu Zhou sat cross-legged on the ground before checking the system interface.
Remaining lifespan: 2,113,097 (5,789 years)
“I gained more than 600 years…” Lu Zhou muttered to himself after doing some calculations. Indeed, the Pillar of Impermanence had returned everyone the years of their lives and then some.
“How many years are there in the pillar?”
After subduing the pillar, Lu Zhou had sensed a space as vast as the sea that was brimming with vitality energy. To think it could also continue to accumulate vitality energy. However, its speed of gathering vitality energy was no longer as exaggerated as it was in the ancient formation. If he wanted to accumulate vitality energy, he would need time. Naturally, he would not feel at ease leaving an infinite-grade item somewhere to gather vitality energy.
Then, Lu Zhou checked his merit points.
Merit points: 91,760
He sighed inwardly. These points were not a lot. He had spent 50,000 on Reversal Cards earlier. Fortunately, he still had the enhanced Reduction Card. Moreover, with Lu Wu around, it would not be troublesome even if they encountered another Venerable Master.
Just from the effect of the Pillar of Impermanence, without the help of the Purple Glazed Ceramic, the speed of the Primal Qi coursing through the Eight Extraordinary Meridians had increased drastically. Naturally, there were downsides as well. The speed at which one’s life decreased was ten times faster as well.
“Ten years here is like a year outside…” Lu Zhou muttered to himself as he stared at the calm surface of the lake, “Perhaps, it’s still a little slow…”
Lu Zhou smacked his hand on the ground, and the Pillar of Impermanence grew again. This time, its size only increased a few times. It seemed like it had reached its limit.
‘My cultivation base isn’t high enough to display its full power,’ Lu Zhou thought to himself.
Nevertheless, it was good enough that he was able to increase its speed by 15 times.
If his cultivation speed had increased by 15 times, what about his speed of meditating and comprehending the Heavenly Writing?
Lu Zhou closed his eyes and entered his meditative state immediately.
After a moment, Lu Zhou could tell his speed was about five times faster now.
Based on this, it could be seen that comprehending and meditating on the Heavenly Writing was about three times more difficult than normal cultivation.
Lu Zhou did not have any complaints about the five-times increase in speed. It was equivalent to one and a half Purple Glazed Ceramic. After the Purple Glazed Ceramic recovered its energy, his speed would be even faster.
…
After six hours…
Lu Zhou had almost completely recovered his divine power.
Such a speed was unimaginable in the past.
Then, Lu Zhou stopped meditating on the Heavenly Writing and manifested his blue avatar.
Since the effects from the Disguise Card and Concealment Card had disappeared, the blue avatar appeared in its true form.
The Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar glowed blue as the divine power swirled around it like a thick fog.
“Again.”
Lu Zhou waved his hand.
The blue avatar landed on the ground.
Lu Zhou decisively upgraded his avatar. He channeled some of the vitality energy from the vortex into the blue avatar.
This time, the avatar’s absorption was obviously slower than before. After all, not only did he need to maintain the range of the pillar, but he also had to let the blue avatar absorb the vitality energy.
At the same time, Lu Zhou used his consciousness to probe the Pillar of Impermanence again. He could feel the vast vitality energy surging out into the blue avatar.
The lotus under the blue avatar that was being ‘fed’ began to spin at this time.
Lu Zhou could feel his blue avatar was advancing by leaps and bounds!
…
At the same time.
In the depths of the forest at the foot of the mountain.
Although Little Yuan’er had long been familiar with the activation of Birth Charts due to her seniors’ advice, she was still careful and wary as she placed the life heart in her Birth Palace.
After she dropped the life heart into her Birth Palace, she hurriedly withdrew her hands and covered her eyes. She did not dare to look at the changes in her Birth Palace. She kept muttering, “It doesn’t hurt, it doesn’t hurt, it doesn’t hurt…”
Click!
Little Yuan’er instinctively put her hands down and looked at her Birth Palace in confusion when she heard a crisp sound.
Her lotus seat and Birth Palace was smooth; not even the shadow of the life heart could be seen.
“Where’s my life heart?!” Little Yuan’er grabbed the little Fire Phoenix’s neck and asked, “Little Fire Phoenix, did you eat it when I wasn’t looking?”
Chirp!
The little Fire Phoenix tilted its head to the side slightly, looking confused.
