Chapter 1720: Meng Zhang and Jian Bing
Sometimes it looked like a halo and sometimes it looked like a light disk.
In the eyes of the golden lotus cultivators, it was a miraculous phenomenon. They had never seen a light disk in their whole lives so how could they identify it?
…
Zhu Honggong flew up from the southern pavilion and hovered in the sky above the Evil Sky Pavilion. He naturally knew it was a light disk. “Hm? Who’s forming a light disk?”
Zhu Honggong shifted his gaze and saw the pillar of light from the eastern pavilion where his master was. In his heart, his master had long been a supreme being so he did not understand why his master would form a light disk now. He scratched his head and said, “Master?”
Zhu Honggong thought about it for a moment before he nodded and muttered to himself, “Master is showing his strength to tell the others that the Evil Sky Pavilion isn’t easy to bully…”
…
At this moment, Lu Zhou looked at his lotus in shock and disbelief.
A cultivator could only form light disks after becoming a supreme being. A light disk granted one 300,000 years of life. Naturally, one’s cultivation would also increase. Every three light disks corresponded to a major stage. To form a light disk, one had to activate all 36 Birth Charts.
However, the blue avatar only had 19 Birth Charts now. Why did it suddenly form a light disk?
“Is it really an unrestrained avatar? Could it really be unrestrained to this extent?”
Previously, he had been surprised enough that he was able to activate 14 Birth Charts ahead of time. Now, he had also formed a light disk ahead of time. What kind of weird and unrestrained avatar was this?
After a while, he thought to himself, ‘Who cares? As long as my strength increases, it’s fine.’
Then, he closed his eyes and began to meditate on the Heavenly Writing.
Part of the energy from the blue avatar was purified before it turned into the divine Dao power and lingered in his Dantian’s sea of Qi.
Currently, one-fourth of his divine power had already transformed into the divine Dao power.
Lu Zhou also made another astonishing discovery: the speed at which the four power cores converted energy to the divine Dao power was too fast. With its speed, the first light disk from the golden avatar had already stabilized. This meant that he had now gained 300,000 years of life.
However, these 300,000 years of life were offset when activating the blue avatar. Just activating two Birth Charts had already cost him 200,000 years of life.
Fortunately, he had a strong foundation.
…
Another day passed.
The third, fourth, and fifth pillars of light shot into the sky above the Evil Sky Pavilion.
Lu Zhou did not care about the changes outside. He sensed the blue avatar’s strength was increasing swiftly.
He suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the blue avatar. He saw a light disk above the lotus seat.
“The blue avatar’s sun disk has been formed!”
Lu Zhou was overjoyed.
The blue avatar’s sun disk aside, 22 Birth Chart zones linked up and shone dazzlingly.
He had successfully activated his Birth Charts again.
The divine Dao power that the blue avatar could provide had also increased significantly.
Lu Zhou studied the blue avatar carefully and admired its changes. The blue had grown stronger and was almost evenly matched with the golden color. The two colors reflected off each other, making the light disk look even more distinct.
Lu Zhou controlled the avatar to make all kinds of movements. Its mobility was exceptionally good like an ordinary human. It was very agile as well.
’22 Birth Charts… I still have another 14 Birth Charts to go. How do I activate them?’
Next, Lu Zhou planned to look for Meng Zhang to ask for its blood essence. He had already used Meng Zhang’s divine soul pearl so it was not good to use it again. However, it would be difficult to find a better divine soul pearl.
Lu Zhou shook his head. This matter should not be rushed. He rose to his feet and flashed away, appearing in the sky above the Evil Sky Pavilion.
As soon as Lu Zhou arrived…
“Greetings, master! Master’s divine might is unrivaled! You’ll be revered by tens of thousands of generations!” Zhu Honggong shouted.
Lu Zhou frowned. He turned around and saw Zhu Honggong in the sky as well.
‘Bast*rd, he gave me a shock!’
“What’s the matter?” Lu Zhou asked.
Zhu Honggong replied, “I was shocked when I saw master’s light disk! I didn’t expect master to be so powerful!”
Lu Zhou did not expect to cause such a huge commotion either. It seemed like he had to pay more attention when he cultivated in the future.
“Did you Seventh Senior Brother wake up?” Lu Zhou asked.
“No. It might be because he’s digesting and absorbing the blood essence,” Zhu Honggong replied.
“I still have to search for the other blood essence. You stay in the Evil Sky Pavilion and guard him,” Lu Zhou said.
“Master, don’t worry! I’ll definitely protect Seventh Senior Brother!” Zhu Honggong said.
Lu Zhou nodded and flashed away.
…
Lu Zhou traveled through the runic passage in the Evil Sky Pavilion and appeared in a forest in the Unknown Land near the Pillar of Destruction guarded by Meng Zhang, the Azure Dragon.
The Unknown Land was just as dark as before.
The forest was silent. Occasionally, a flying beast or a fierce beast would pass by.
Lu Zhou flew toward the Pillar of Destruction. In just a blink of an eye, he appeared next to a cliff and saw the Pillar of Destruction that towered into the sky.
Fog swirled at the top. A faint shadow was faintly discernible through the fog. If one did not look carefully, it would be difficult to see that there was a gigantic beast guarding the Pillar of Destruction.
Lu Zhou could easily see it. After all, his cultivation had improved greatly, and he had night vision ability as well. His senses were also keener than ordinary cultivators.
The surroundings were extremely quiet.
Lu Zhou continued to fly. Halfway through his flight, the fog at the top of the Pillar of Destruction began to surge as something stirred within it. Soon enough, what looked like two moons appeared in the fog. The moons were Meng Zhang’s eyes.
Meng Zhang’s eyes easily illuminated the area within a radius of 30,000 feet. After a moment, the eyes focused on Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou hovered in the air. He raised his head and said, “Meng Zhang. Long time no see.”
“...”
How could Meng Zhang not recognize Lu Zhou?
The two moons suddenly disappeared, and darkness fell again.
“Meng Zhang?” Lu Zhou called out.
There was no movement within the fog at all. It was as though Meng Zhang did hear him.
Lu Zhou: “?”
Lu Zhou continued flying forward as he said, “I have something to talk to you about. Come out.”
It was still silent, and there was still no movement.
Lu Zhou frowned slightly and said, “If you don’t come out, I’ll stab the Pillar of Destruction.”
There was still no sound and movement.
Lu Zhou raised his hand, and the Great Abyss Land’s Heaven Suppressing Pestle appeared in his hand.
The Heaven Suppressing Pestle was like a cone, and it emitted a faint but terrifying aura. When it spun, it seemed as though it could destroy everything that stood in its path.
Rumble!
Crackle!
A bolt of lightning suddenly descended from the fog and accurately struck Lu Zhou. He did not even bother to dodge or defend. When the lightning struck him, not only did it not cause any damage, but it was also completely absorbed by his blue avatar. Previously, when he first met Meng Zhang, his blue avatar was as weak as an infant. Meng Zhang’s attack was as fierce as the sea. It could strengthen his blue avatar at that time, but its power was too overbearing. Now, his blue avatar had grown stronger, and Meng Zhang’s attack was just a cup of tea to quench its thirst. The more Meng Zhang attacked, the better it would be.
“???”
Meng Zhang’s figure stirred in the fog in front of the Pillar of Destruction. After a moment, it appeared in its human form. He said unhappily, “It’s you again.”
“What do you mean by ‘you again’?”
“Unholy One, we don’t have any intersections in our lives. You walk your path of eternal life, and I protect the balance of heaven and earth. We are unrelated. Why are you bothering me?” Meng Zhang complained.
“Bothering you?” Lu Zhou said in confusion, “You owe me a favor. How can you say we’re unrelated?”
“I’ve already returned your favor,” Meng Zhang said.
Lu Zhou retorted, “One divine soul pearl isn’t enough.”
“You’re the Unholy One who reigns supreme in the world. Can you be reasonable?” Meng Zhang said with a hint of exasperation.
“I have always been reasonable.”
“...”
Lu Zhou saw Meng Zhang was speechless so he said, “I came here today not to make things difficult for you. I have two things to ask of you.”
Meng Zhang chuckled and said, “Lord Unholy One, what can I, a Divinity of Heaven that has lost much of its power, do for you?”
“You’re the only one who can help me with this matter. If you don’t help me today, I’ll have no choice but to tear down this Pillar of Destruction. Let’s die together,” Lu Zhou said.
“...”
‘Shameless Old Demon! Is this what you call reasonable?!’
Meng Zhang looked at the Heaven Suppressing Pestle in Lu Zhou’s hand in confusion. That Heaven Suppressing Pestle was protected by Emperor Yu in the Great Abyss Land; he did not know why it was with Lu Zhou.
Meng Zhang asked solemnly, “Are you really planning to bring the sky down?”
Lu Zhou replied, “You’re one of the Four Divinities of Heaven. You should know very well that even if I don’t bring the sky down, the sky will collapse sooner or later. Emperor Yu giving me this thing is just a despicable way to divert trouble and frame me.”
Meng Zhang fell silent. He had guarded the Pillar of the Destruction for many years. How could it not know the situation of the Pillars of Destruction?
Lu Zhou continued to say, “The two things are very simple for you…”
Meng Zhang said, “I don’t believe you. Tell me, what is it?”
“First, lend me a drop of your blood essence. If I was unreasonable, I would’ve just forcefully taken it from you.”
“...”
‘Although it’s true, why is it so unpleasant to the ears?’
Earlier, as soon as Meng Zhang opened his eyes, he could already sense that Lu Zhou was very powerful. If they fought, Lu Zhou might really gain the upper hand. Hence, he said, “I’ll give it to you. Let me tell you. After completing the two things, we will have no further interactions.”
“We’ll talk about the future another time.”
“???”
Meng Zhang raised his head and a strange noise came out of his mouth as though he was going to suffocate from anger.
“In the future, you might have things to ask of me. Are you sure you want nothing to do with me after this?”
Upon hearing this, Meng Zhang’s heart skipped a beat. He could clearly sense Lu Zhou’s strength had improved a lot. The earlier lightning bolt did not hurt him the slightest; on the contrary, it had made him stronger. Most importantly, he was the Unholy One. Who in the world dared to say they were not afraid of the Unholy One? Who in the world dared to refuse the Unholy One? Having connections to such a person was not a bad idea.
With that thought in mind, Meng Zhang asked, “What’s the second thing?”
Lu Zhou nodded in satisfaction and said, “As expected of the Four Divinities of Heaven. They’re much smarter than those people who always try to oppose me. The second thing is very simple. Where’s Jian Bing, the White Tiger, now?”
Meng Zhang was puzzled. “Why are you looking for Jian Bing?”
“It’s nothing. I want a drop of its blood essence,” Lu Zhou answered truthfully.
“...”
‘Does this Old Demon have a hobby of collecting blood essence? Damn! This hobby is quite special!’
Meng Zhang took a step backward and asked warily, “You really only want one drop?”
Lu Zhou nodded. “One drop is enough.”
“Jian Bing separated from us 100,000 years ago. It’s not in the Unknown Land; it has never left the Great Void. You can go to the Great Void to look for it,” Meng Zhang said.
“Great Void?” Lu Zhou said skeptically, “The temple has the Scales of Justice. It dares to stay in the Great Void?”
Meng Zhang asked, “So where do you think it can stay to avoid disrupting the balance?”
Upon hearing this, a familiar place appeared in Lu Zhou’s mind: the ancient ruins.
