Chapter 841: Everything Collapses in the Face of Benefits
It was understandable that Yu Chenshu had offered Feng Zihe a flood-grade weapon in exchange for the life heart.
Regardless, Feng Zihe did not dare to accept the offer. After all, even if he really obtained the flood-grade weapon, would he be alive to use it? He did not trust Yu Chenshu at all.
However, no one expected the middle-aged man who had been hiding all this time to demand a flood-grade weapon without having any leverage.
Jian Tingzhong flew over and asked, "Who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am." Lu Zhou grabbed Wei Junzi. He controlled his hand seal, clearly not intending of letting Wei Junzi go.
Jian Tingzhong said with a sneer, "Even if we were to give you the flood-grade weapon, do you really dare to use it?"
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "Is there any weapon in this world I don't dare to use?"
"It's considered very good that we plan to give you a heaven-grade weapon. Your appetite is really not small. How dare you ask for a desolate-grade weapon from the Sky Martial Court?" Jian Tingzhong said.
A sizzling noise rang in the air at this moment.
The sun seemed to be burning the place where Wei Junzi had smashed the green bottle.
At this moment, green gas slowly rose up and moved toward Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou looked at the green grass that disguised itself as vitality energy and casually waved his hand. His energy blew the gas away.
Upon seeing this, Wei Junzi said, "It's useless. This thing is very potent. The bottle I gave you contains a colorless and odorless potion that can dispel the gas. Let me go, and I'll help you resolve this."
Lu Zhou shook his head and said indifferently, "I thought you were a talent and that I might be able to use you. Alas, there's a path to heaven for you, but you chose not to take it and barged into hell instead."
"Huh?"
The green gas continued moving toward Lu Zhou.
Jian Tingzhong said in a deep voice, "Let him go, and I'll spare your life."
At this moment, a palm seal fell from the Void Sect's huge flying chariot. "How noisy! Just end this with one palm strike!"
The palm strike was clearly intended for Lu Zhou.
Everyone was certain of Lu Zhou's death at this moment.
However, to everyone's surprise, Lu Zhou only flicked his left hand, and the palm seal vanished into thin air.
"…"
All these super elites would have lived in vain if they still could not tell Lu Zhou was a super elite as well.
Meanwhile, the fake vitality energy grew stronger and stronger.
After a moment, a howl finally resounded from the depths of the valley.
"It's a gigantic beast! Could it be a Birth Chart Beast?!"
Everyone naturally no longer paid any attention to Lu Zhou. All their attention was focused on the cry of the beast.
In just an instant, the three flying chariots moved, facing the direction where the noise came from.
Another shrill cry resounded in the valley again at this moment.
Everyone's hearts jolted.
Even the cultivators and sects in the periphery who were looking for an opportunity to strike were shocked by this cry.
Meanwhile, Feng Zihe, who seemed as though he had been injured by a huge beast, flew up into the sky as he manifested his avatar. Naturally, the life heart was still in his possession.
"Attack!"
Buzz!
Mo Buyan and Jian Tianzhong instantly manifested their avatars as well and attacked at lightning speed.
At the same time, a few Five-leaf and Six-leaf cultivators leaped out of the True Kunlun Sect's flying chariot at top speed as well.
With this, how could the Void Sect stay idle? A few people from the sect rushed out as well.
In just a second, the valley was filled with avatars. In fact, the majority of the avatars were Nine-leaf avatars. There were only a few Eight-leaf avatars that could be seen wondering at the edges of the valley.
Due to the life heart, a fierce battle ensued.
In front of such a treasure, chaos descended immediately.
At this moment, Yu Chenshu asked in a deep voice, "Have you forgotten your agreement with me?"
"Court Master Yu, if you want us to honor the agreement, then you'd better give us what you promised now. Who knew if you're just bragging. Isn't it wiser to obtain the life heart first and exchange it with the desolate-grade weapons from you later?"
"That's right, Court Master Yu. Our Void Sect won't snatch this from you. It'll be yours sooner or later!"
Crash!
Yu Chenshu smashed the handle of his chair with just a strike. He was naturally not a fool.
At this moment, a roar that sounded like it came from a tiger rang from the forest again. The volume was tens of thousand times stronger than before.
Stones began to roll down the mountain wall of the Sky Wheel Mountain Range at this moment.
Wei Junzi laughed. "Quick, put me down! Otherwise, you won't be able to escape!"
Lu Zhou released his five fingers!
Bang!
With just a wave, he shattered Wei Junzi's protective barrier.
Meanwhile, Wei Junzi fell and landed by Lu Zhou's feet. He tried to rise to his feet, but Lu Zhou raised his hand and pressed his palm down on Wei Junzi.
"You…" Wei Junzi raised his arms to block the attack and struggled to free himself at the same time. The palm felt like a huge mountain pressing down on him. In the end, he could only lay on the ground helplessly.
Bang!
"It's Buddhist palm seal. Are you a Buddhist?" Wei Junzi asked in confusion as he widened his eyes.
At this moment, Wei Junzi's companion, or his underling, cried out, "Boss, I'll save you!" He wielded a dagger and moved swiftly as he tried to stab Lu Zhou's chest
Lu Zhou's expression remained calm as always. He did not even look at Wen Jiuzi's companion as he mobilized his energy and flicked his finger.
Swoosh!
Wei Junzi's companion flew back as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Lu Zhou waved his hand again, and the small green bottle that was releasing green grass instantly flew toward Wei Junzi's companion before it exploded in front of him. With this, the green grass began to shift and moved toward him instead.
Wei Junzi's face paled immediately as he cried out, "No!"
Lu Zhou said tonelessly, "Everyone has to pay the price for their actions. You're no exception."
The green gas attached itself to the young man.
The ferocious beast in the valley seemed to sense the fake vitality energy as it began to make its move. A loud thumping noise resounded in the valley.
…
In the sky.
Feng Zihe from the Heavenly Fire Sect was currently surrounded by many Nine-leaf cultivators. He was trying to break through the encirclement. Alas, how could he put up a fight against so many Nine-leaf cultivators?
The cultivators around Feng Zihe were like a pack of wolves; they shredded his avatar into pieces in just an instant.
Feng Zihe's eyes reddened as he cried out, "Fine! Let's die together!"
"Keep dreaming!"
At this moment, a shadow streaked across his chest. Before Feng Zihe even had a chance to self-detonate, his dantian and sea of Qi had been destroyed by someone. Since it was too chaotic, he could not react in time and he could even see the culprit
Feng Zihe lowered his head and looked at his lower abdomen. Then, he grabbed the life heart and decisively threw it into the abyss.
"The life heart! "everyone exclaimed in unison.
Feng Zihe chuckled weakly. Then, he closed his eyes in satisfaction and fell from the sky.
Nobody paid attention to the dead Feng Zihe and scrambled toward the life heart in a frenzy.
The three Nine-leaf experts unleashed their grand techniques and arrived near the life heart.
Buzz!
The trio hastily manifested their avatars and collided with each other.
Boom!
The force of the collision sent the life heart flying immediately.
At this moment, Yu Chenshu, who was still sitting in the red flying chariot, said imposingly, "Kill those who oppose the Sky Martial Court without mercy!"
"Understood!"
With this, Mo Buyan and Jian Tingzhong went on a massacring spree. They brought out their desolate-grade weapons and began to attack the other Nine-leaf cultivators.
The Sky Wheel Mountain Range was in complete chaos at this moment.
"Yu Chenshu! How dare you!" A disgruntled voice rang from the Void Sect's flying chariot.
Yu Chenshu stared unblinkingly at the valley, clearly wary of the approaching beast or beasts. He only said, "I gave all of you a chance, but none of you appreciated it. I hereby declare that our Sky Martial Court will annihilate the True Kunlun Sect and the Void Sect!"
"You! ! Good! Very good!!" The Void Sect's huge flying chariot trembled slightly. It was obvious the person in the flying chariot was furious.
The True Kunlun Sect that was in a similar situation with the Void Sect could only work with each other.
At this moment, it seemed like everyone had forgotten about Lu Zhou. Not even the cultivators waiting outside of the valley like hyenas or the Crimson Sun Sect paid any attention to Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou glanced at Wei Junzi, who was lying on the ground, before he observed the situation in the valley. He did not make a move at all and only silently observed the chaos. All of a sudden, he felt it was not completely unreasonable that Si Wuya had been backstabbed in the past.
Lu Zhou stood with his hands on his back. His expression was calm as he watched the fight. 'Just fight. Fight with all your might!'
At this moment, Wei Junzi chuckled and said, "What the point of all this? In the end, you won't gain anything as well."
Lu Zhou could not be bothered to reply to Wei Junzi and continued observing the fight.
In just a short while, another two Nine-leaf cultivators were dead.
Lu Zhou thought nothing about the Nine-leaf cultivators' battle. He wanted to see the fight between Ten-leaf cultivators!
Yu Chenshu, naturally, would let anyone who was a threat to his life go. He said to the trio from the Crimson Sun Sect, "If three of you help the Sky Martial Court clean up the mess in the valley, each of you will be given a desolate-grade weapon."
The trio from the Crimson Sun Sect was naturally delighted. "Thank you, Senior Yu."
Yu Chenshu looked around his surroundings. There were many other sects and cultivators around them. He muttered under his breath, "Where are the elites from Cloud Mountain hiding?"
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou was as calm as always.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sound of collision rang from the valley. It sounded as though a fierce beast was ramming the Sky Wheel Mountain Range.
Lu Zhou surveyed his surroundings and muttered, "Who else will come?"
Just like Yu Chenshu, he did not care about the battle between the Nine-leaf cultivators.
In any case, the fuse had been lit; it was only a matter of time before the battle escalated.
At this moment, the trio from the Crimson Sun Sect, who were also Nine-leaf cultivators, landed behind Lu Zhou.
Sun Jie took the lead and coldly said as he looked at Lu Zhou and Wei Junzi, "Hey, you've got nothing to do here. Hurry up and leave the Sky Wheel Mountain Range. Otherwise, you'd be killed without mercy!"
Lu Zhou who was still standing with his hands on his back glanced at the trio before he asked, "Are you talking to me?"

Sun Jie nodded. Then, he glanced at Wei Junzi who was still lying on the ground. "Yes. That's enough. You heard what Court Master Yu said. Do you need us to do the work? Or are you going to leave on your own?"
Lu Zhou continued watching the battle in front of him. Almost a third of the forest had been razed to the ground. Even such a deep and vast valley could withstand the strength of so many Nine-leaf cultivators.
Although the Sky Martial Court's Mo Buyan and Jian Tingzhong each possessed a desolate-grade weapon, due to the combined number of people from the True Kunlun Sect and the Void Sect, the battle had reached a stalemate.
"Clean this mess up," Yu Chenshu said from the red flying chariot. The soundwave of his voice traveled 1,000 meters in the deepest part of the valley that was also the largest area of the valley. Just slightly ahead was an abyss.
Meanwhile, the cultivators from the Crimson Sun Sect bowed at Yu Chenshu as they said in unison, "I'm willing to serve Court Master Yu!"
Lu Zhou did not move from his original position and continued to observe the battle from afar.
Upon seeing no response from Lu Zhou, the trio from the Crimson Sun Sect exchanged a look.
In the end, Sun Jie waved his hand after he said, "Pardon me."
The other two Nine-leaf cultivators from the Crimson Sun Sect flashed and arrived at Lu Zhou's sides, each of them tried to grab his shoulders.
Lu Zhou merely turned and released a surge of energy from his body.
Bang!
Just like that, the two cultivators from the Crimson Sun Sect were sent flying back.
In front of cultivators with higher cultivation bases, the speed of those who were weaker naturally seemed incredibly slow. The duo had no time to react at all as they were sent flying with a horrified expression on their faces.
Following that, Lu Zhou moved in between the duo and struck at the duo with his left and right hand.
Bang! Bang!
The duo immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.
With just Lu Zhou's Ten-leaf cultivation base and karmic fire, he did not even need to use his extraordinary power to shatter their protective energies and injure them.
The two Nine-leaf cultivators did not have time to react at all. They flew past Sun Jie and crashed against a stone wall before sliding down to the ground. Cracks could be seen at the stone wall at this moment.
The Crimson Sun Sect's Sun Jie watched with his mouth agape. He looked at the 'middle-aged man' in shock and disbelief; his mouth felt incredibly dry at this moment.
Lu Zhou stood in front of Sun Jie expressionlessly.
Sun Jie gulped. His heart was racing in his chest. He could endure the oppressive aura and stumbled back before he fell to the ground.
Similarly, Wei Junzi was also shocked by Lu Zhou's display of strength.
"…"
Sun Jie trembled as he stammered, "S-senior… It's a misunderstanding!"
Lu Zhou stood with his hands on his back as he looked at the four people around him. Then, he raised his head to look at the sky again as he said, "Even Yu Chenshu would be amazed by me if he were to meet me…"
Sun Jie and Wei Junzi. "…"
They did not know if Lu Zhou was bragging or not, but they knew, at this moment, their life was under his control.
Meanwhile, the two people from the Crimson Sun Sect who were injured by Lu Zhou's palm strike leaned against the stone wall and endured the burning pain from the karmic fire. They could acutely feel their lives slipping away.
Sun Jie did not dare to move at all. He only looked at Lu Zhou warily and fearfully; his back was drenched in sweat.
…
Above the valley of the Sky Wheel Mountain Range.
Mo Buyan and Jian Tingzhong's battle continued to be the main attraction.
At this moment, the duo from the Sky Martial Court who wielded a desolate-grade weapon each had already killed four Nine-leaf cultivators.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sounds of fighting and collision continued to ring in the valley.
At this moment, a person flew out swiftly from the Void Sect's flying chariot. "The Sky Martial Court has gone too far!"
Bang!
Similarly, another person flew out from the True Kunlun Sect's flying chariot. It was a peerlessly beautiful woman with an alluring figure. She looked like a streak of rainbow as she flew out swiftly dressed in a colorful robe.
At the same time, a person rushed out from the huge chariot of the true Kunlun sect at lightning speed. It was a woman.
"The Ten-leaf elites have begun to make their moves!"
The cultivators around the Sky Wheel Mountain Range began to retreat upon seeing this,
With the Ten-leaf elites making a move, the destruction increased by several times.
Meanwhile, Mo Buyan and Jian Tingzhong's expressions darkened when they saw the Ten-leaf elites making a move. They did not hesitate as they turned tail and flew toward the red flying chariot.
"Xuan Chengzi, Mo Xinglu, I've given you a chance but you refused to accept it!"
Boom!
With this, Yu Chenshu finally flew out of the red flying chariot. As soon as he left the flying chariot, it dropped from the sky immediately.
"Yu Chenshu is finally making a move!" Wei Junzi's eyes lit up immediately.
On the other hand, Sun Jie was still in a daze.
Alas, the duo had no idea how dangerous the 'middle-aged man' standing next to them was.
Yu Chenshu arrived behind Mo Buyan and Jian Tingzhong at lightning speed before he pushed his palm out.
Xuan Chengzi, the Daoist from the Void Sect, and Mo Xinglu from the True Kunlun Sect dealt with Yu Chenshu's palm strike from the left and the right respectively.
Bang! Bang!
Two waves of energy surged out vertically.
Boom!
Just like that, one of the mountains was cleaved into two.
Meanwhile, the Nine-leaf cultivators in the vicinity staggered backward, on the verge of collapse.
The three nine-leaf cultivators staggered backward and were on the verge of collapse.
Yu Chenshu alone fought against two opponents as he asked, "Mo Buyan, Jian Tingzhong, why are you standing around in a daze?"
"Understood." The two elders wielded their desolate-grade weapons and passed the three Ten-leaf elites, making their way to the group of Nine-leaf cultivators.
The Void Sect's Daoist, Xuan Chengzi, glared at Yu Chenshu and asked, "Yu Chenshu, do you really think you're invincible?"
Following that, Mo Xinglu said with a scoff, "Court Master Yu, it must be difficult to fight two opponents at the same time."
Yu Chenshu calmly replied, "Indeed, I'm invincible…"
Whoosh!
Yu Chenshu pushed his palm out as red karmic fire ignited, burning up vitality energy and energy at a rapid speed.
Bang! Bang!
Faced with this, Xuan Chengzi and Mo Xinglu pushed their hands out and retreated in the air.
Yu Chenshu moved toward Xuan Chengzi slowly and expressionlessly. At the same time, a black object that looked like a three-story pagoda appeared in his palm. The red energy raging around the black pagoda complemented each other.
Meanwhile, Xuan Chengzi joined his palms together before a red energy surged out of his body. He cried out, "Your attack is too direct and clumsy!"
An eye-catching round eight trigram seal shining with red energy appeared in front of Xuan Chengzi immediately. The formidable seal sailed in the air toward Yu Chenshu immediately.
Yu Chenshu remained calm. He calmly tossed the black object out. "Suppress."
When the black object came into contact with the eight trigrams seal, it cut through the seal like a hot knife through butter, destroying it before it continued on its trajectory toward Xuan Chengzi.
Mo Xinglu exclaimed, "Run! It's a Confinement Seal!"
Yu Chenshu said coldly, "It's too late!"
The Confinement Seal suddenly increased in size.
Xuan Chengzi began to frantically unleash energy seals. There were Daoist seals and runes and even the Dark Yin Palm. Alas, they were all easily destroyed by the Confinement Seal.
Soon enough, the Confinement Seal landed on Xuan Chengzi's chest, causing him to throw up blood. He felt his blood and qi surged in his body. He flew back like a kite with a broken string.
Meanwhile, Mo Xinglu's expression turned grim as she flew to Xuan Chengzi's side. She was aware that she would not be a match for Yu Chenshu without Xuan Chengzi. Therefore, she could not let anything happen to Xuan Chengzi!
Meanwhile, the Confinement Seal flew back to Yu Chenshu's hand, and he flew forward. Red karmic fire rose from his body and surged dozens of feet high. He did not chase after Mo Xinglu. Instead, he looked at the Nine-leaf cultivators and shouted, "Scram!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The Confinement Seal burning with red karmic fire flew toward the Nine-leaf cultivators like a dazzling red dragon.
The remaining ten or so Nine-leaf cultivators from the True Kunlun Sect and the Void Sect were sent flying in just a blink of an eye.
…
Meanwhile, the cultivators outside of the valley were dumbfounded when they saw this scene.
"The flood-grade weapon is so strong!?"
"Not only is the flood-grade weapon strong, but don't you forget Yu Chenshu's Ten-leaf cultivation base and his red karmic fire! There's no hope for us. Don't even bother going into the valley…"
Everyone had rushed here in hopes of gaining something. At this point, even if they could not obtain anything, they still could watch a rare large-scale battle between the heavyweights.
…
Yu Chenshu's attack landed true.
He stepped forward and raised his hand as the Confinement Seal flew back to his hand.
Following that, the Confinement Seal reverted to a small black three-story pagoda again.
As the red karmic fire dissipated, Yu Chenshu said tonelessly, "Xuan Chengzi, Mo Xinglu, what are you going to do now?"
After Mo Xinglu caught Xuan Chengzi, she hovered in the air 100 meters away from Yu Chenshu. At this moment, she looked at him as though he was a terrifying beast.
Xian Chengzi and Mo Xinglu knew Yu Chenshu was powerful, but his strength had far exceeded their expectations. Despite their similar cultivation bases, it felt as though Yu Chenshu was in a whole different league.
At this moment, the ten or so Nine-leaf cultivators from the True Kunlun Sect and the Void Sect clutched their chests and looked at Yu Chenshu in shock and fear.
In the end, Xuan Chengzi shook his head and said, "I've truly underestimated you, Yu Chenshu."
Yu Chenshu did not respond to Xuan Chengzi. Instead, he extended his hand and said in a threatening tone, "The life heart…"
Currently, the life heart of the Birth Chart Beast was in the possession of a Nine-leaf cultivator from the True Kunlun Sect.
The Nine-leaf cultivator looked at the life heart in his possession and hesitated. After all, how many people dreamed of possessing this thing? How many people would risk and had risked their lives for it? How could he not feel even the slightest bit unwilling now that he was asked to hand the life heart over?

Chapter 843: The Battle of a Ten-leaf Karmic User
Yu Chenshu did not beat around the bush and directly extended his hand to ask to demand the life heart. His voice, attitude, and gaze were brimming with killing intent, leaving people with no room for arguments.
The Nine-leaf cultivator coughed violently a few times before he suddenly tore off his robes. He lowered his head to look at his body and cried out, "Karmic fire!"
With this, the other Nine-leaf cultivators tore off their robes as well and saw a square mark on their chests. This meant that the karmic fire had already invaded their extraordinary eight meridians.
Yu Chenshu said tonelessly, "I'll say it one last time; hand the life heart over."
These Nine-leaf cultivators were gradually losing their strength. The karmic fire was slowly eroding their meridians, causing them excruciating pain that they wished they were dead. At best, they would be bedridden for a year. At worst, they would lose their lives.
This was the power of the karmic fire.
At this moment, the Nine-leaf cultivator in possession of the life heart glared at Yu Chenshu and said, "Extinguish the karmic fire, and I'll give you life heart."
Yu Chenshu glanced at the man before he flipped his palm and pushed it out.
A red palm seal flew out slowly.
Upon seeing this, the Nine-leaf cultivator was overjoyed.
Meanwhile, the others cried out one after another, "No! We can't give it to him. If you give it to him, we'll all die!"
Swoosh!
At this moment, the red palm seal had already arrived before the Nine-leaf cultivator. All of a sudden, it suddenly increased in size and shrouded the Nine-leaf cultivator completely.
The red palm seal destroyed his face, and his chest was caved in. Based on this, it was likely all his internal organs were shattered. Following that, he fell limply to the ground.
Everyone could only watch in shock. They were helpless as they watched their comrade died.
How did Yu Chenshu do that?
Initially, the red palm seal clearly felt benign. Even its speed was slow and gentle. How did it suddenly gain so much power to instantly kill a Nine-leaf cultivator?
Everyone's eyes were filled with shock. They could only watch helplessly as their companion fell down.
Fear many times more intense than before swept through everyone.
The difference between their strength and Yu Chenshu was too big. Was this the power of a Ten-leaf karmic fire user?
Meanwhile, Yu Chenshu flipped his hand again.
The life heart was brought by the red energy toward Yu Chenshu.
"…"
Buzz! Buzz!
At this moment, the resonance of avatars being manifested rang in the air.
Xuan Chengzi and Mo Xinglu's energies surged out of their bodies at this moment.
"You still have to deal with us if you want the life heart!"
Yu Chenshu snorted contemptuously and said, "If you have a death wish, I'll grant your wish!"
Xuan Chengzi and Mo Xinglu formed a flurry of tornadoes in front of them, deflecting Yu Chenshu's energy.
Three 200-foot avatars began to fight fiercely in the center of the valley.
Everyone quickly retreated.
The energies stirred up a fierce wind, wreaking havoc above the valley. The energies collided in a burst of red light.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The thumping noises coming from the depths of the forest were also drowned out by the sounds of explosions from the fight between the three Ten-leaf elites.
Meanwhile, the Nine-leaf cultivators continued to retreat in a haste.
At this moment, all the trees within a 1,000-meter radius of the valley had been flattened by the energies from the battle.
…
Lu Zhou frowned. He was slightly surprised; he did not expect Yu Chenshu to be so strong. Nonetheless, he did not think he had to use his trump card to deal with Yu Chenshu.
He reminded himself to praise Si Wuya when he returned to the golden lotus domain. If it were not for Si Wuya's plan, he would have to spend a lot just to take Yu Chenshu down.
Someone like Yu Chenshu certainly had many life-saving techniques. After all, he was the master of the Sky Martial Court. It would be best if he could finish off Yu Chenshu with just a blow, but he was not certain it was possible. Moreover, he had to consider elites he might meet in the future. Therefore, he could not casually use his trump card.
The fiery-red sky obscured his view at this moment. When he stared at the red sky for a long time, he felt his vision going blurry.
Lu Zhou was just blinking his eyes when he suddenly saw Sun Jie wielding a dagger and lunging at him at lightning speed, clearly intending to stab him.
Bang!
The tip of the dagger stopped just half an inch away from Lu Zhou's side, unable to move forward.
"Huh?" Sun Jie trembled. He had used all his strength in this sneak attack, and yet, he failed to breach Lu Zhou's defenses.
Lu Zhou clasped his hands and rested them on his back. He looked at Sun Jie expressionlessly and said, "Your courage is commendable."
Clang!
The dagger dropped to the ground.
Sun Jie trembled as he stumbled backward. "Y-you… You… You're a Ten-leaf elite?"
"What's the point of asking when you already know the answer?" Lu Zhou slowly walked forward.
Thinking it was the only way he could survive, Sun Jie said, "It doesn't matter! Y-you're not a match for Court Master Yu. Give up!"
A rare faint smile appeared on Lu Zhou's face as he said curtly, "Naive."
Then, he raised his hand and struck.
A golden palm seal shot out immediately.
Sun Jie was shocked. 'A foreign invader?'
Sun Jie did hesitate and tried to fly immediately. However, the palm seal struck him at an even faster speed. Blood spurted out just as he was about to leap up into the sky.
Even if Yu Chenshu was not dealing with the other two Ten-leaf elites, would he really care about a cultivator from the Crimson Sun Sect?
The other two from the Crimson Sun Sect turned pale with fright and hurriedly rose to their feet. Since they were going to die anyway, they might as well fight to the end. Both of them began to attack in a frenzy.
Lu Zhou took a step forward as the Six Compatible Seal shot out. The ten golden scripts of heaven, earth, life, death, water, fire, being, non-being, existence, separation, and unification formed a circle and spun rapidly toward the duo.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The ten golden scripts easily breached their protective energies and landed on their bodies. The duo was already heavily injured to begin with, how could they have survived this attack from a Ten-leaf elite?
"Killed one target. Obtained 1,500 merit points. Domain bonus 1,000 merit points."
"Killed one target. Obtained 1,500 merit points. Domain bonus 1,000 merit points."
"…"
Wei Junzi's eyes widened in shock.
Lu Zhou did not pay any attention to the two from the Crimson Sun Sect. Instead, he looked down at Sun Jie who had been shot down from the sky. At this moment, he was shaking his head and still trying his best to escape. He flew up into the sky again
Lu Zhou raised his hand, and Unnamed materialized instantly in the form of a bow. He drew the bowstring back with two fingers before he released the arrow. Needless to say, his arrow had never missed its target.
Subsequently, Lu Zhou turned around with his hands on his back. His gaze fell on Wei Junzi who was in a daze.
The battle between the three Ten-leaf elites was still ongoing in the sky.
Alas, the red energy obscured Lu Zhou's view.
At this moment, the thumping sounds coming from the depths of the forest in the valley grew louder and louder.
Due to the red energies from the battle, the fake vitality energy that spilled out from the small green bottle was not too obvious. However, those with a keen nose for vitality energy definitely would not miss it.
…
Meanwhile, all the cultivators in the vicinity of the Sky Wheel Mountain Range could only look at the sky above the valley with their mouths agape. However, due to the red energies, they did not have a clear look at the battle. They rubbed their watery eyes as they tried to see what was happening, not paying attention to Lu Zhou at all. Hence, they did not see Lu Zhou killing the trio from the Crimson Sun Sect.
On the other hand, the Nine-leaf cultivators from the True Kunlun Sect and the Void Sect who were slightly closer to the battle had already discovered the strange thumping noises from the forest. Unfortunately, the sounds of the battle between the three Ten-leaf cultivators were too loud and the red energies were too dazzling that they did not pay attention to strange noises in the forest.
"Ding! You've killed a target. Obtained 1,500 merit points. Obtained domain bonus 1,000 merit points."
Lu Zhou remained indifferent when he received the notification for killing Sun Jie. The number of merit points was insignificant to him, after all.
After a moment, he looked at Wei Junzi who was lying on the ground silently. After a long time, he finally said, "You overestimated yourself."
Wei Junzi was someone who cherished his life more than ordinary people. His body trembled as he pleaded, "Please, please spare my life, senior! Senior… If I wouldn't have done this if I knew this was going to happen…"
Lu Zhou no longer paid attention to Wei Junzi and continued to watch the battle.
At this moment…
A wave of red energy rippled out as a figure retreated to the left and two figures retreated to the right.
It seemed like the outcome of the battle had been decided.
The red energy in the sky gradually dissipated as well.
The Sky Martial Court's Yu Chenshu was standing at the right side while the other two were on the left, clutching at their chests.
Xuan Chengzi from the Daoist's Void Sect and the True Kunlun Sect's Mo Xinglu were drenched in blood. Both of them were gasping for air, unable to speak. However, their eyes spoke of their unwillingness.
Yu Chenshu placed his hands on his back and looked at the duo as he said, "Why would you do this if you knew this would happen?"
Lu Zhou. "…"
Xuan Chengzi said, "Why?!"
"There's no why. Let alone the two of you, even a Birth Chart master won't be able to do anything to me," Yu Chenshu said seriously, "If we were in the Sky Martial Court, even a Birth Chart Master would die without a burial ground."
Xuan Chengzi and Mo Xinglu. "…"
The Nine-lead cultivator was again shocked by Yu Chenshu's strength.
At this moment, a figure flew up from below. It was none other than the Sky Martial Court's Jian Tingzhong. He held the life heart in his hand and said excitedly, "Court master! I have the life heart!"
Yu Chenshu said, "Very good."
At this moment, Wei Junzi thought this was his best chance to survive. He shouted desperately, "Court master! I know how to defeat the Birth Chart Beasts in the valley! Please save me!"
Lu Zhou looked at Wei Junzi immediately.
After that, Yu Chenshu looked over as well. A trace of surprise could be seen in his eyes. 'Where are the Nine-leaf cultivators from the Crimson Sun Sect? Although he was watching the battle, he's not affected at all. In fact, not a speck of dust could be seen on him…'
Yu Chenshu flew over to Lu Zhou and Wei Junzi and looked down from the sky as he asked, "You didn't die?"
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "How could a Nine-leaf cultivator hurt me?"
Yu Chenshu frowned as realization dawned on him. "I didn't expect the elite from Cloud Mountain to be right in front of me all along…."
Wei Junzi. "???"
"You knew?"
"I naturally knew it was a trap, but I decided to play along. I just didn't expect Brother Lu to be so young," Yu Chenshu said airily.

Chapter 844: Heaven-defying Techniques
Xuan Chengzi, the Daoist from the Void Sect, Mo Xinglu from the True Kunlun Sect, and the injured Nine-leaf cultivators were puzzled.
Why did Yu Chenshu talk to a relatively young man and address him as Brother Lu? Who was this person?
Those who could rise high above the Sky Wheel Mountain Range were Nine-leaf cultivators. Those with fewer leaves had long retreated. Those who reached the Nine-leaf stage had, at least, 700 to 800 years of life. There were some who were even 1,000 years old. To a 1,000-year-old cultivator, Lu Zhou indeed looked like a young man.
"You decided to play along?" Lu Zhou looked around but could not see any traps.
Most, if not all, of the Nine-leaf cultivators on Sky Wheel Mountain Range were injured.
Meanwhile, Xuan Chengzi and Mo Xinglu were injured as well.
Only the trio from the Sky Martial Court was as normal.
In Lu Zhou's opinion, Si Wuya's plan had already succeeded. Indeed, he could have continued to hide and watch the tigers fight to the end before he swooped in to reap the benefits. However, plans could not always keep up with the changes. Although he had been exposed, he did not think it was a huge problem at all. Moreover, he had already gained a certain understanding of Yu Chenshu's abilities and strength. Apart from that, in terms of life-saving techniques and trump cards, he was confident he was not inferior to Yu Chenshu at all.
Yu Chenshu cupped his fists together at Lu Zhou before he said, "I've long heard of your name. In my opinion, the person who can kill Ye Zhen must also be able to kill the Yong. Brother Lu deliberately released the Birth Chart Beast just to cause a fight. At that time, the golden lotus domain would launch a large-scale invasion."
Lu Zhou glanced at Yu Chenshu. In fact, he did not think that far, but he had to admit Yu Chenshu's train of thoughts was rather reasonable. In the end, he said, "Yu Chenshu, you don't look like a foolish person to me."
Yu Chenshu said, "In fact, both of us don't have enmity. Alas, we stand on opposing sides. Both of us are destined to be enemies."
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "There's no natural enemy in this world. You can't blame others for your sins. If you're willing to turn back, I might consider sparing your life."
Everyone was stunned when they heard Lu Zhou's words. They wondered where he got the confidence to say such words to Yu Chenshu.
Yu Chenshu waved his arm and said, "Just have a look around you…"
In the Sky Wheel Mountain Range, various sects and hordes of cultivators surrounded every direction.
"Is this your plan?" The only thing Lu Zhou felt regretful about was that Xia Housheng, the hidden expert in the palace, did not appear. However, it did not matter. Moreover, no matter how many people came, it was useless.
Yu Chenshu said with a smile, "You'll know soon enough." As soon as he finished speaking, he dove. His eyes shone with determination as he extended his arms forward. His palms shone with a blood-red light.
Whether it was the people from the True Kunlun Sect, the Void Sect, or the cultivators around Sky Wheel Mountain Range, all of them watched the scene unfolding before them in a daze.
Who was the middle-aged man for Yu Chenshu to treat him so seriously?
At this time, Yu Chenshu's red palm seal flew straight toward Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou's expression did not change at all as he slowly raised his hand that shone with a dazzling golden light.
"Foreign tribesman!"
"He's a foreign tribesman!"
Under the cultivators' watchful eyes, the red palm seal and the golden palm seal collided.
Bang!
The shockwave from the collision of energies rippled out immediately.
The Nine-leaf cultivators watching the battle had no choice but to activate their protective energies to protect themselves from the shockwave.
The cultivators were further shocked when they saw not only did the flames surge from the red palm seal, but the golden palm seal burned with flames as well!
The battle seemed to be at a stalemate at this moment.
"Karmic fire!"
"Golden karmic fire? There's such a hidden elite in the territories of Great Tang!?"
The most unlucky person was Wei Junzi who was lying on the ground near Lu Zhou. He was burned by the red and golden karmic fire until his face turned red. His body was burning, and he cried out in excruciating pain. The color of his skin was changing and his eight extraordinary meridians were damaged. Unfortunately, no one cared if he lived or died. He could not blame people for being callous and disregarding his cries for help. After all, when two super elites were battling, who would dare to approach?
Whoosh!
The red karmic fire rose from the ground up until it was several feet high.
On the other hand, the golden karmic fire did not lose ground and surged high up as well.
Needless to say, one's karmic fire was unable to harm the user and would only burn and injure the opponents.
Now that both opponents possessed karmic fires, the only thing left was to see whose karmic fire was stronger.
The golden palm seal and the red palm seal continued to struggle against each other.
Yu Chenshu continued hovering in the air as he looked at the golden karmic fire. A hint of surprise flashed across his face as he murmured, "It's really karmic fire!"
"Are you surprised?" Lu Zhou asked indifferently.
From the time when Lu Zhou had left the Yong here to the battles earlier, the battle between him and Yu Chenshu had only just begun.
The other cultivators and their conflicts and greed were nothing in the face of Lu Zhou and Yu Chenshu's battle.
"It's not surprising… Moreover, for many years, I've dreamed about meeting an elite whom I can fight to my heart's content. It seems like my dream came true today. Isn't lonely to stand at the peak alone?" Yu Chenshu was clearly in high spirits.
"I don't think it's lonely to stand at the peak alone… However, I know that the fall from the peak would be very miserable," Lu Zhou replied.
Buzz!
Both opponents increased the output of their Primal Qi. The karmic fires rose another 30 feet.
"Ahh!" Wei Junzi could no longer endure the karmic fires. He let out a final wretched cry before he was reduced to ashes.
"Ding! One target killed. Obtained 500 merit points. Obtained domain bonus 500 merit points.
The burning karmic fires made the battle even more intense.
However, both opponents remained calm.
"If this is all you have, I'm afraid it's far from enough." Yu Chenshu pushed his palm out and an even more powerful red energy shot out. "Retreat."
Buzz!
While the karmic fires struggled against each other, Lu Zhou did not move at all.
Upon seeing this, a puzzled expression appeared on Yu Chenshu's face.
"You're right. If that's all you have, I'd be really disappointed…" Lu Zhou's palm glowed with barely noticeable blue light before his extraordinary power surged out.
A power completely different from the golden energy exploded immediately.
Boom!
Yu Chenshu could sense the danger coming at him. He immediately withdrew his hand and flipped backward in the air more than ten times. When he finally came to a stop, he looked at Lu Zhou who was still standing in the same spot in shock.
The stalemate had finally been broken. At this moment, Yu Chenshu was at a disadvantage.
Meanwhile, Mo Buyan and Jian Tingzhong were shocked as well. They had followed Yu Chenshu for many years and had never met anyone who could force Yu Chenshu to retreat. Even the combined forces of the Void Sect's Xuan Chengzi and the True Kunlun Sect's Mo Xinglu could not force Yu Chenshu back.
Yu Chenshu maintained his flight in the sky and said, "Good move."
Lu Zhou circulated energy under his feet before he leaped up and flew up into the sky. Then, he calmly said, "I'm afraid you still don't understand the situation you're in…"
"I can say to you as well…" Yu Chenshu said confidently.
If one could fight, why should one let oneself be wronged?
Lu Zhou took the initiative to strike and pushed his palm forward again. The energy that shot out was like a bolt of lightning that burned with golden flames as it sailed in the air like a shooting star.
Yu Chenshu raised his palm to deflect the strike.
Bang!
As soon as the energy landed on Yu Chenshu's palm, he felt a strange aura. The force of the attack sent him flying back. He discovered that his arm was numb before it began to hurt. He was shocked.
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou's expression did not change at all. He leaped again and struck with his palm again and again.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Just like that, Yu Chenshu was pushed back again.
All the cultivators present on the scene. "…"
It was too unbelievable! What kind of heaven-defying technique was this?
The cultivators that surrounded the Sky Wheel Range Mountain watched in disbelief.
Everyone knew Yu Chenshu was the strongest person in the Sky Martial Court. Not only was he a Ten-leaf elite, but he was also a karmic fire user. How could someone like that be defeated so easily?
The cultivators even began to wonder if the battle was staged.
Meanwhile, Mo Buyan and Jian Tingzhong rubbed their eyes before they watched the battle again.
Bang!
This was the fourth palm strike.
Yu Chenshu retreated to the edge of the Sky Wheel Mountain Range. If he retreated any further, he would be leaving the mountain range.
Lu Zhou who had gained the upper hand again with his fourth palm strike asked, "Is this all you're capable of?"
Yu Chenshu's face twitched slightly. He was clearly angered now. As he opened his right hand, he said, "I hope you won't disappoint me!"
A small black object that resembled a three-story pagoda appeared in Yu Chenshu's palm.
When Lu Zhou saw the object, he said, "Confinement Seal?"
"You have a good eye." Yu Chenshu did not hesitate to toss the Confinement Seal out.
The Confinement Seal suddenly turned thousands of times bigger, looking like a real three-story pagoda. It formed a cage as it shot above Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou looked up and lifted his hand. A huge palm appeared and grabbed the Confinement Seal.
At this moment, Yu Chenshu flew toward the top of the pagoda and landed on it. He stomped heavily on the pagoda. "Down!"
Bang!
With that, the Confinement Seal seemed as heavy as 1,000 tonnes.
Lu Zhou dropped down more than ten meters before a barely noticeable blue light began to shine from between his fingers again.
Originating from nothing, from it comes everything. Living in samsara and learning from it. This was the power of past lives.
The huge palm pushed up again. Not only did the Confinement Seal fail to drop down, but it was rising up rapidly instead.
"Huh?" Yu Chenshu frowned and bent down to smack the pagoda thrice.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
However, the three smacks only halted the rise of the pagoda for a brief moment before it continued to fly up again. Apart from that, its speed was increasing as well!
In just a moment, it was high up in the air where Primal Qi was thin.
Yu Chenshu's expression turned grim immediately. "I've underestimated you!"
Yu Chenshu jumped down from the pagoda. When he landed at the bottom, he launched red palm seals that covered the sky.
Lu Zhou withdrew the huge palm and turned around, deciding to create a Confinement Seal of his own. and walked into the pagoda instead!
Bang Bang Bang Bang!
Meanwhile, the golden energy and the karmic fire deflected the countless red palm seals.
While Lu Zhou was casting Confinement Seal, he pushed his palm out as he increased the output of his extraordinary power:
"Get down!"
Lu Zhou's blue palm was dazzling. It overwhelmed all the red palm seals and flew toward Yu Chenshu's face.
Yu Chenshu was shocked as he blocked the blue palm seal. "Blue palm seal?!"
Boom!
The blue palm seal pressed Yu Chenshu down.
Buzz!
The extraordinary power was capable of extinguishing karmic fire. Just like splashing water on ordinary fire, sizzling noises rang in the air as the extraordinary power extinguished the red karmic fire.
The pressure on Yu Chenshu doubled immediately. He was drenched in sweat as he shouted, "Confinement Seal!"
The Confinement Seal rapidly shrank as it flew down in front of Yu Chenshu. Then, it grew larger again, helping him to hold off against the blue palm seal.
Boom!
At this moment, fireworks bloomed in the sky.
The blue palm seal finally shattered in a dazzling manner.
However, in order to destroy the palm seal, Yu Chenshu and the Confinement Seal were sent flying.
"This…" Jian Tingzhong said gravely, "Blue palm seal… Does this mean he's not from the golden lotus domain?"
Mo Buyan hurriedly said, "We're in big trouble. Elder Jian, leave with the life heart and call for reinforcements!"
"Alright." Jian Tingzhong held onto the life heart and prepared to leave.
However, Jian Tingzhong's actions did not escape Mo Xinglu and Xuan Chengzi's notice. They regained their senses immediately.
"Stop them! You can't leave!" Xuan Chengzi stared at Jian Ting Zhong and Mo Buyan.
Jian Tingzhong said in a deep voice, "Do you really want to go against the Sky Martial Court?"
"So what if I go against the Sky Martial Court? Hand over the life heart!" Xuan Chengzi said. However, his momentum was not that strong as he began to cough after he finished speaking.

Chapter 845: Surrounded in Ten Directions; Who Would be the Winner?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jian Tingzhong said, "You're already injured!"
"It's enough to stop you," Xuan Chengzi said.
Mo Xinglu flew in another direction and blocked Jian Tingzhong and Mo Buyan.
Two Ten-leaf elites were more than enough to stop two Nine-leaf cultivators even if they were injured.
Moreover, most of the other Nine-leaf cultivators had already lost their ability to fight. It was considered good enough if they could fly, how could they fight?
Jian Ting Zhong raised his head and looked at Yu Chenshu.
At this time, Yu Chenshu had unleashed his power again in the air, holding onto the Confinement Seal.
"Court Master Yu hasn't even unleashed all his strength yet. Do you really think this is the extent of his strength?" Jian Tingzhong asked.
Upon hearing this, Xuan Chengzi and Mo Xinglu looked at the sky cautiously. They hoped Yu Chenshu and Lu Zhou would fight each other until both of them were heavily injured. At that time, they would be able to reap the benefits.
At this moment, Yu Chenshu looked at Lu Zhou, who was looking down at him, angrily. Following that, he struck with his palm again.
A small red palm seal that looked incredibly ordinary shot out. However, when it arrived in front of Lu Zhou, it rapidly expanded by dozens of feet.
Lu Zhou had expected this. At this moment, his whole body was shrouded by golden flames like a Buddha.
Bzzt!
Just like that, Lu Zhou nullified the red palm seal.
"A Buddhist elite!?"
Even when Lu Zhou was in the golden lotus domain, he had already mastered the techniques from the school of Confucian, Buddhism, and Taoism. When he used the Golden Buddha Body, he no longer needed to rely on an item card or his extraordinary power.
The Ten-leaf Golden Buddha Body that was bathed in golden flames was dazzling. With the sun shining down on him, he looked like a divine being, filling people with the urge to worship him.
The weak cultivators present on the scene gulped. They could not bear to look away from the Golden Buddha Body in the sky.
Soon enough, Lu Zhou withdrew the Golden Buddha Body, and he dove. At the same time, he made a few twisting motions with his right hand before he pushed it forward.
"The Nine Cut Hand Seals!"
The Sole Diamond Seal, the Great Blitz Treasure Seal, the Outer Circle Mystic Seal, the Inner Eight World Seals, the Fetterless Seal, the Pantheon Seal, the Eight Trigrams Seal, the Magic Gourd Seal, and the Sun Moon Seal appeared, corresponding with the Nine Cut Hand Seals. Each of the seals was related to the nine mantras. The seals revolved around nine palm seals. Most terrifyingly, the palm seals were also shrouded in golden karmic flames!
At this moment, the nine palm seals struck.
For a long time now, Yu Chenshu had never felt threatened. He had never felt so much pressure as he did today. He glared at Lu Zhou and raised the small pagoda in his hand. The Confinement Seal instantly enlarged to form a barrier, shielding him.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The nine palm seals struck the Confinement Seal, producing a thunderous noise.
With each hit from a palm seal, Yu Chenshu would fall for dozens of meters.
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou drew closer and closer to Yu Chenshu.
When the fifth palm seal struck, Yu Chenshu's back hit the cliff.
Boom!
Yu Chenshu tried with all his might to maintain the Confinement Seal to block the remaining palm seals.
The next four palm seals struck one after another.
With each palm strike, Yu Chenshu and the Confinement Seal were pressed harder against the cliff.
When the last palm seal struck, Yu Chenshu was completely stuck in the cliff wall.
At this moment, the sky above Sky Wheel Mountain Range was as silent as a graveyard. The air was incredibly still now that the raging energies had dissipated.
Although Lu Zhou's palm seals were powerful, Yu Chenshu should have been able to deal with them. After all, they were both Ten-leaf elites and karmic fire users. Moreover, Yu Chenshu also wielded the flood-grade weapon.
The cultivators in the surroundings did not dare to move at all nor did they dare to make a sound. They could only watch in shock.
Bang!
At this moment, the Confinement Seal suddenly shot out from the cliff toward Lu Zhou as red karmic fire raged everywhere.
Meanwhile, Yu Chenshu followed closely behind the Confinement Seal, wielding a red long spear with both hands.
"The Black Dragon Spear! It's a desolate-grade weapon!"
Using the cliff and the power of the Confinement Seal as leverage, Yu Chenshu shot out and quickly arrived in front of Lu Zhou. He used all his strength as a Ten-leaf cultivator and thrust the spear toward Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou retaliated by launching several palm seals as he flew backward. He turned his right hand over discreetly and Unnamed appeared in his hand in the form of a shield.
"Shield!"
An oval shield burning with golden flames deflected the Black Dragon Spear and the Confinement Seal.
Bang!
The Black Dragon Shield landed on the shield.
1
"It's a flood-grade shield! Who's this person?"
The cultivators were shocked and confused. Most people would choose an offensive weapon like swords, sabers, spears, clubs, and halberds if they had a choice. They might even choose assistive weapons that could restrain their opponents or boost their strength. There were almost no cultivators who would choose a defensive weapon. This was the first time all of them had seen a flood-grade shield.
"Even if we don't gain anything, it's worth it just to watch this battle!"
At the same time, the Sky Martial Court, the True Kunlun Sect, the Void Sect, and the other sects were also watching the battle. The two opponents would decide everyone's outcome. There was nothing they could do at all.
At this moment, Yu Chenshu cried out, "It's my time to show you my strength!"
As the red karmic fire burned, Yu Chenshu's hands turned fiery-red as he wielded the Black Dragon Spear and continued to stab Unnamed.
One of the cultivators said, "This is a good move! He'll have to change his tactic now. Otherwise, he'd be pushed up high into the sky where the Primal Qi is thin,"
Lu Zhou said indifferently, "Is this the extent of your strength?" Then, he said curtly, "Go down."
Lu Zhou's finger shone with a blue light again.
The extraordinary power from the scrolls of the Heavenly Writing was domineering as it shrouded Unnamed.
A shrill and ear-piercing noise rang in the air as the Black Dragon Spear was repelled and bounced back. Most terrifyingly, the spear was bent!
Due to the immense pressure, Yu Chenshu had no choice but to let go of the spear. With that, the Black Dragon Spear fell out of his hand.
Unnamed, in the form of a shield, continued to press down on the Confinement Seal. The Confinement Seal was no match for it at all, especially now that it had been boosted with the extraordinary power.
Bang!
Unnamed slammed fiercely against Yu Chenshu's chest.
Yu Chenshu, Great Tang's only Ten-leaf karmic fire user, was heavily struck and spat out a mouthful of blood. Due to the red energy around him, it was difficult to distinguish between his blood and the red energy.
The cultivators were dumbfounded when they saw Yu Chenshu spitting out a mouthful of blood!
Similarly, Yu Chenshu was shocked as well. He could feel the blood qi in his body raging uncomfortably.
"Court Master!" Mo Buyan and Jian Tingzhong cried out in unison. They really wanted to go over to help Yu Chenshu, but they knew they would only be seeking death to interfere in a battle between Ten-leaf elites.
Meanwhile, the two Ten-leaf elites, Xuan Chengzi and Mo Xinglu, were shocked as well. Although Yu Chenshu was also a Ten–leaf elite like them, in comparison to them, Yu Chenshu might as well be an Eleven-leaf elite. Then, what about this 'middle-aged man' who managed to push Yu Chenshu to a corner?
At this moment, Yu Chenshu's confidence began to waver. He hid the shock he felt as he glared at Lu Zhou. Was this the power of the Birth Chart? No. The two Birth Chart Masters from 2,000 years ago were not like this. The person in front of him was barbaric and unreasonably strong.
After a beat, Yu Chenshu landed on the top of the mountain and stomped his feet, causing them to sink into the ground.
With that, rocks began to roll down the mountain.
Lu Zhou looked down at Yu Chenshu from the sky and said, "Your Body Tempering is really good."
Yu Chenshu chuckled and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth before he said, "Since I was young, the efforts I have put in are hundreds and thousands more compared to other people. That's how I can get to where I am today. I'm invulnerable to poison, fire, water, and weapons… I…" Before he finished speaking, he coughed out another mouthful of blood.
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "I'd like to see what kind of monster you are."
Lu Zhou flipped his palm and the Golden Taixu Mirror appeared in his hand.
The sound of Primal Qi rang in the air immediately.
Someone cried out, "A desolate-grade mirror!"
At this time, all the cultivators felt as though their views had been upended when they saw Lu Zhou bringing out one desolate-grade weapon after another.
The Sky Martial Court was filled with treasures, but it seemed like this person was not inferior to the Sky Martial Court at all!
A golden beam of light shone out of the Golden Taixu Mirror like a spotlight on Yu Chenshu.
The mirror showed a Ten-leaf avatar behind Yu Chenshu, but that was it.
"Hmm?"Lu Zhou frowned slightly. "That's all?"
'Is it possible that the desolate-grade Golden Taixu Mirror is unable to reflect Yu Chenshu's true form?'
"The Sky Wheel Mountain Range has been surrounded; we still don't know who the winner will be," Yu Chenshu said as he endured the pain in his chest.
Lu Zhou replied, "You're the same as Ye Zhen. Your blind confidence makes you look stupid."
Lu Zhou recited the mantra from the Scrolls of the Heavenly Writing. Soon enough, extraordinary power shrouded the Golden Taixu Mirror. The originally golden beam of light turned blue as it shone on Yu Chenshu.
At this moment, a shocking scene appeared before everyone's eyes.
Only Yu Chenshu's skeletons were reflected in the Golden Taixu Mirror!
Now that the Golden Taixu Mirror was boosted with the extraordinary power, nothing could hide from it.
Apart from the full skeleton of a human, there was a stone-like humanoid puppet that looked creepy.
A few cultivators began to discuss among themselves.
"What's that?"
"I've never seen something like this before. This mirror should be something that can reveal one's true form! Is that puppet a substitute or some kind of immortal body?"
No one knew what it was they were seeing.
Lu Zhou thought the Golden Taixu Mirror would reflect the Nine Infants.
There was no one who liked their secrets exposed, let alone an arrogant person like Yu Chenshu. He grew enraged and stomped violently on the ground before he shot toward Lu Zhou.
For a moment, Yu Chenshu's red karmic fire and the Confinement Seal overwhelmed the light from the Golden Taixu Mirror.
"There's nothing you can do to me!" Yu Chenshu shot up into the sky as talismans flew out of his body.
As the talismans burned, a sea of fire appeared in the sky, causing the temperature to rise sharply.
Even the Birth Chart Beast in the forest seemed to have sensed the high temperature and came to a halt.
Lu Zhou put the Golden Taixu Mirror away and said tonelessly, "I don't care if you're human or a ghost, just take this palm strike of mine!"
Lu Zhou used one-fourth of his extraordinary power in the blue palm seal that were the size of the valley's entrance. Just the fingers were as huge as a mountain.
The Abandon Wisdom was dazzling!
Boom!
It landed true on Yu Chenshu. No one was surprised when he fell down. He hit the cliff with a loud boom, causing several cracks to appear. When he finally landed, he seemed lifeless.
The cultivators. "…"
Lu Zhou frowned when he did not receive the notification for killing Yu Chenshu. 'Is he really immortal?'
He flipped his palm, and Unnamed appeared again.
Lu Zhou still had a lot of strength left. If he could not kill Yu Chenshu with his own strength, he would just use his item cards then.
Meanwhile, everyone seemed to be in a daze, unable to tear their eyes away from the scene.
On the other hand, Xuan Chengzi and Mo Xinglu even thought of fleeing along with Jian Tingzhong and Mo Buyan. They felt an unprecedented danger, how could they still think of reaping the benefits? It was just wishful thinking on their behalf.
At this time, upon seeing Mo Xinglu and Xuan Chengzi distracted, they exchanged a look.
"Let's go!"
The duo flew southeast of the Sky Wheel Mountain Range like a fired arrow.
Lu Zhou turned around and shook his head. "You dare covet my things?"
Unnamed turned into a bow immediately.
The bow and arrow were shrouded with golden energy and was the size of a person.
Lu Zhou used a quarter of the extraordinary power in the two arrows.
Zing!
The sound of the arrow being fired rang in the air. One arrow shot to the left while the other one shot to the right, accurately piercing Jian Ting and Mo Buyan's hearts at lightning speed!
As the life heart dropped from the sky, Lu Zhou flew over to it.

Chapter 846: Tens of Thousands of Swords Piercing the Heart
The speed of a Ten-leaf elite was something the others could only watch helplessly.
As Lu Zhou dove, he pushed his palm out. A palm seal shot out and grabbed the life heart like a dragon's claws. After retrieving the life heart, he inspected it for a moment and confirmed it was the Yong's life heart before he put it away in the pocket near his chest.
Although Mo Buyan and Jian Tingzhong's hearts had been cleanly pierced by the arrows and they were still falling from the sky, Lu Zhou had to receive the notifications of their deaths.
When the duo landed on the ground, he brought out the Golden Taixu Mirror again and shone it on them, but it did not show anything strange.
He was still mulling over this matter when the notification finally arrived.
"Ding! Killed a target. Obtained 1,500 merit points, Domain bonus 1,000 points."
"Ding! Killed a target. Obtained 1,500 merit points. Domain bonus 1,000 points."
"Ding! Obtained the Dragon Eagle's Fury and the Flash Hook. Do you wish to retrieve them?"
"Retrieve them."
The two weapons flew towards Lu Zhou's hand.
Once a weapon reached the earth-grade, it would be able to recognize its master. If the bond between the owner and the weapon were strong, the owner would be able to wield it to its full potential. After reaching the heaven-grade, the weapon's strength would increase tremendously and gain the ability to break barriers. When it reached the desolate-grade, one could freely manipulate its size and shape.
Since Lu Zhou obtained this weapon from the system, he did not need to manipulate its size to store it. He really did not expect the two elders to possess desolate-grade weapons. The trip here was a huge win for him!
Following that, Lu Zhou returned to the top of the valley and looked down.
Lu Zhou turned around and flew towards the direction of the canyon.
The cultivators from the Void Sect and the True Kunlun Sect had retreated dozens of meters away when they saw Lu Zhou. Chills ran up their spines, and they wished they could turn tail and flee.
The Sky Wheel Rift Valley was as silent as a graveyard at this moment.
The cultivators around the mountain range rose up into the sky to watch from afar. None of them dared to move closer. All in all, there were almost 1,000 cultivators in the sky.
On the other hand, the number of cultivators on land was even more numerous. There were almost a thousand of these cultivators altogether.
Lu Zhou did not pay attention to the others; he kept his eyes trained on Yu Chenshu. He was certain Yu Chenshu was not dead, after all.
Bang!
At the moment, the Confinement Seal flew up, stirring up debris.
"Yu Chenshu's alive!"
"The victor is uncertain! This is too exciting!"
The cultivators hovering nearby were now more like movie-goers, here to watch a show. They seemed to no longer care about obtaining treasures. All of them were curious as to who would emerge victorious.
When the flood-grade Confinement Seal rushed toward Lu Zhou, he pushed his hand out again.
A huge palm seal appeared, blocking the Confinement Seal.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Thunderous noises rang in the air as the Confinement Seal rammed against the golden palm seal, trying to break it.
Boom!
Yu Chenshu leaped out suddenly at lightning speed. Compared to earlier when he was calm and in a pristine condition, he looked disheveled and was covered in dust at this moment. There was blood on his face, and blood stained his chest and torn robes. As he flew toward the Confinement Seal, he spread his arms.
Buzz!
Yu Chenshu manifested his avatar. This was the first time he manifested his avatar since the battle began. The 200-foot red lotus avatar was different in the sense that its red was different from the usual red lotus avatars. Instead, his avatar was the dark red of blood. The debris and rubble near him were sent flying by his energy as he flew.
Subsequently, Yu Chenshu raised his hand. The Black Dragon Spear that was lying on the ground flew into his hand immediately. He tightened his grip on the Black Dragon Spear as Primal Qi surged from his body. Then, he spat a mouthful of blood on the Black Dragon Spear. The bent spear trembled for a moment before it miraculously straightened itself out! Then, the inscriptions on the body of the spear lit up.
The cultivators watched in horror as they discussed among themselves.
"There are Dao inscriptions on the weapon?"
"What do you mean?"
"The Dao inscriptions are a large-scale array formation. They're not dissimilar to city defense formation. To inscribe them on a weapon, it requires high forging skills and cultivation bases. There should be fire spirit stones in the spear as well. Coupled with the dao inscriptions, it will increase the strength of the flood-grade weapon for a short time…"
"Something like this is possible?" Everyone was surprised.
"Yes, but the price one has to pay is high as well. Fire spirit stones are originally used to improve the quality of weapons. However, if they are used in this way, it will damage the weapon. After the energy from the fire spirit stones is used up, the Black Dragon Spear will probably fall to the heaven-grade."
"The Sky Martial Court is really… wealthy…"
"I don't know how many weapons the Sky Martial Court had studied and forged back then. Apart from those we know of, I'm certain the others are all in Yu Chenshu's possession."
One of them looked at Yu Chenshu, who was burning with fighting spirit, and seemed to have thought of something. "It's said that the most perfect weapon in the Sky Martial Court is called the Nine String Zither. Is it lost?"
"It should have been taken away by Luo Xuan. How could they lose such a treasure so easily? Unfortunately, no one has seen the Nine String Zither before and its ability is unknown."
…
At this time, the Black Dragon Seal had completely repaired itself.
Lu Zhou wanted to take down the Confinement Seal, but it kept struggling.
Bang!
At this moment, the Confinement Seal increased in size again, finally crushing the palm seal.
Yu Chenshu wielded the boosted desolate-grade Black Dragon Spear with both hands and advanced toward Lu Zhou with the Confinement Seal.
Everyone cried out in surprise and held their breaths.
Red energy swirled in the sky but no one dared to blink, afraid of missing a shocking scene.
Lu Zhou brought Unnamed out again.
Yu Chenshu said coldly, "I won't make the same mistake again."
Lu Zhou manipulated Unnamed and turned it into a hammer.
Bzzzt!
The hammer was shrouded with energy and crashed heavily against the Black Dragon Spear.
Bang!
Red sparks flew when the weapons collided, creating a dazzling firework.
"A flood-grade hammer?"
The cultivators watching the battle gradually felt numb. Who knew how many treasures these two people possessed? In fact, it was probable that they had not even brought out their trump cards.
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou looked up and saw the Confinement Seal falling toward him.
Lu Zhou used Unnamed, which was in the form of a hammer, to block Yu Chenshu's attack. However, if he was restrained by the Confinement Seal, it would be troublesome.
Meanwhile, the Confinement Seal that was as huge as a tower continued to fall toward Lu Zhou.
"Avatar!"
Buzz!
A 200-foot golden karmic fire avatar appeared immediately.
Yu Chenshu was highly experienced in combat. He smirked upon seeing the avatar before he said, "I've been waiting for this moment!"
The Confinement Seal grew in size again. It was like an inescapable net.
It was not troublesome when the Confinement Seal was small. Now that it had grown in size, coupled with Yu Chenshu's strong output of Primal Qi and red energy, a suction force had appeared, trying to pull Lu Zhou's avatar in.
Lu Zhou frowned slightly. He had to admit Yu Chenshu's strength was also beyond his expectation.
Needless to say, both men's strengths were beyond the spectator's imagination as well.
Yu Chenshu's eyes were bloodshot at this moment. He asked smugly, as though certain of his victory, "Do you dare to use the power of the Birth Chart?"
Under such circumstances, even if there were other Ten-leaf karmic fire users, they would not be a match for Yu Chenshu. Needless to say, Yu Chenshu was much stronger than Ye Zhen. The only thing he could not compare to Ye Zhen was his intelligence.
"Stupid!" Lu Zhou's gaze turned cold immediately. He extended his right hand and Unnamed that was shrouded in energy flew back into his hand before it turned back into a sword.
"Who are you calling stupid? Let's see how you block this!"
Now that Unnamed had turned into a sword, the Black Dragon Spear grew bigger with the help of the red energy and fell toward Lu Zhou like a giant pillar.
"It's black?" Yu Chenshu looked at Unnamed in Lu Zhou's hand and saw the dragon-like runes on it. He felt inexplicably threatened; his hair stood on its end, and his body began to tremble as though he had been splashed with a bucket of ice-cold water.
Lu Zhou tightened his grip around Unnamed as he used his energy to keep the Confinement Seal at bay.
All of a sudden, Unnamed grew 30 feet long. The black runes and the blue extraordinary power merged and swept out.
Bang!
In fact, after Lu Zhou reached the Ten-leaf stage, no one knew the true potential of Unnamed. The black runes coupled with the scrolls of the Heavenly Writing, it was definitely stronger than a flood-grade weapon.
A crisp sound rang in the air and the Black Dragon Spear was cleaved into two by Unnamed's energy sword.
The cultivators broke into an uproar again. "A flood-grade sword?"
Lu Zhou saw a black rune disappearing with the wind. This was the cost of cleaving the Black Dragon Spear into two. He found this price acceptable.
Currently, the Black Dragon Spear that had been broken had lost its luster. Yu Chenshu could only throw it aside.
"This weapon…"Yu Chenshu was stunned.
Lu Zhou waved his sword again as energy swords swept out.
After throwing the spear aside, Yu Chenshu could only retreat and used his energy to deflect the attacks. He knew he could not allow the sword with black runes to touch him.
When Lu Zhou saw Yu Chenshu keep retreating, he threw Unnamed aside.
There were four sword paths. The highest sword path was to be able to use all things as a sword.
Lu Zhou closed his eyes. He felt the air and the Primal Qi around him. He could feel the lives of all beings, the essence of the Primal Qi. He knew the true meaning of the sword.
All of a sudden, Lu Zhou opened his eyes…
Energy swords appeared and covered the sky.
The wind, the Primal Qi, and even the vapor in the air were all turned into energy swords.
Following that, all of the energy swords gathered around Unnamed.
Yu Chenshu exclaimed inwardly upon seeing this, 'This is bad!'
Yu Chenshu was pressed down until he landed in the valley. 'He can control so many energy swords?'
A cultivator said, "The limit of the number of energy swords an ordinary nine-leaf cultivator can control is about 40,000. Ten-leaf elites can control 100,000 energy swords at most. However, this man seems to be able to control hundreds of thousands of energy swords."
When Yu Shangrong was studying the sword path, he had broken the limit and managed to control 60,000 energy swords. How would he feel if he were here to witness the unreasonable number of energy swords his master could control?
The energy swords fell at this moment. All of them were stabbing in one direction.
"Ahhh!!!" Yu Chenshu let out a heart-wrenching scream.
No one knew if Unnamed stabbed Yu Chenshu, but there was no doubt he was injured by the countless energy swords.
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou flew into the sky and smacked the bottom of the Confinement Seal as a blue lotus blossomed under his feet.
This was another heaven-defying technique that shook the earth.
Bang!
The Confinement Seal could not withstand the extraordinary power from the Heavenly Writing and shrank immediately as it fell down.
Lu Zhou swooped down and caught the Confinement Seal, which was the weapon Yu Chenshu was most proud of.
Yu Chenshu looked at the sky as he extended his hands. Unnamed, along with hundreds of thousands of energy swords, accurately pierced his chest.
If one looked closely, one would be able to see some of the runes on Unnamed had disappeared.
After unleashing these two moves, Lu Zhou was only left with very little extraordinary power. Apart from that, he only had one-third left of his power from his Ten-leaf cultivation base.
Lu Zhou flew to the top of the Confinement Seal and stomped on it.
Boom!
Following that, the Confinement Seal landed heavily on the ground, partially buried.
At this moment, the valley had been turned into ruins.
Thousands of cultivators in the surroundings looked at Lu Zhou in the center of the valley. They also saw Yu Chenshu in a strange posture. His head was lifted, as though he was looking at the sky, while a bloody hole could be seen where his chest used to be.
Meanwhile, Unnamed was stabbed into the ground behind Yu Chenshu.

Chapter 847: The Puppet and the Peak Trial Card
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lu Zhou who was standing on the Confinement Seal looked at Yu Chenshu whose head was lifted in confusion. Then, he raised his hand, and Unnamed dislodged itself from the ground and flew back into his hand.
In order to break Yu Chenshu's 'immortal body', Lu Zhou had used up half of the black runes on Unnamed. However, he did not feel his heart ached over the loss; were they not meant to be used anyway? In any case, he could obtain more black runes in the future.
Following that, Lu Zhou brought out the Golden Taixu Mirror again and shone it on Yu Chenshu. The golden light laced with the now weaker extraordinary power shone out again.
Just like before, Yu Chenshu's true form was revealed; there was a skeleton and what looked like a strange puppet in front of the skeleton. Both the skeleton and the puppet had one thing in common; their chests were damaged.
Upon seeing this again, the cultivators above the Sky Wheel Rift Valley began to discuss among themselves.
"Could it be a puppet?"
"What's a puppet?"
"The puppet imitates its master and will receive damages on behalf of its master. This includes death. It's a secret ancient technique. With the use of secret techniques and talismans, the puppet can steal the life essence and blood of hundreds of people, killing them. Using what's stolen, it would fuse it into their blood, bones, and skin. This secret technique has been lost for a long time. I didn't expect someone to successfully cultivate it."
The puppet was capable of dying in its master place. Moreover, the puppet was lifeless, to begin with, so how could it die? This was an unsolvable problem.
"Then, how do we kill the puppet or its master?"
Someone shook his head and answered, "I don't know. However, all things have things that can restrain them. I've only read about this in an ancient book. I really don't know how to kill a puppet slave."
Those cultivators continued to watch for further developments. Perhaps, they still might be able to obtain some benefits if the battle continued. If the Ten-leaf elites were heavily injured, it was not entirely impossible to reap some benefits. Even then, none of them dared to act recklessly. Who could guarantee the Ten-leaf elites, even if they were injured, would not seek revenge in the future.
…
Lu Zhou put the Golden Taixu Mirror away
Meanwhile, Yu Chenshu continued to look at the sky for a long time.
After a long time, a burst of creepy laughter rang in the air.
At this moment, blood was still flowing out of the hold in Yu Chenshu's chest, staining his entire body, as he laughed.
Yu Chenshu chuckled as he said, "You're the first person to hurt this puppet slave. I really underestimated you!" As he spoke, the bloody hole began to mend itself at a miraculous speed.
Lu Zhou frowned when he saw this. 'What the hell is this?'
How could Lu Zhou give Yu Chenshu the chance to recover, puppet or not?
Lu Zhou struck again with a palm seal.
Boom!
The palm seal landed on Yu Chenshu's body with a loud noise, causing him to fly back. However, just like a puppet, he did not seem to feel any pain. He untied a small red flag from his waist before he stabbed it into the ground. Subsequently, he joined his palms together. With this, Primal Qi from his Dantian's sea of Qi began to flow out.
With the flag as the center, the energy and Primal Qi seemed to have turned into tendrils of energies that spread out in all directions.
Someone cried out in horror, "The Life Siphoning Totem! Yu Chenshu actually possesses this thing from the foreign tribes! Hurry, retreat!"
With this warning, the cultivators scattered in all directions.
Alas, the range of the energy tendrils was rather long. They easily attached themselves to the cultivators near the Sky Wheel Mountain Range, absorbing their vitality and energy.
The flag suddenly increased in size, almost covering the entire valley.
Lu Zhou frowned. He stepped on the ground and flew into the sky. 'What the f*ck is this?'
Lu Zhou surveyed his surroundings. Apart from the energy tendrils, the huge flag seemed to be absorbing the cultivators' vitality as well.
In the sky and at the bottom of the Sky Wheel Mountain Range, all the cultivators, except for those from the True Kunlun Sect and the Void Sect, seemed willing to contribute their vitality to Yu Chenshu.
Realization dawned on Lu Zhou. He asked, "So, is this your plan to beat them at their own game?"
Yu Chenshu spread his arms out, revitalized by the energy he was absorbing. He said, "I'm invincible!"
"Quickly! Cut it off!" Xuan Chengzi brought a blade out and cut the energy tendril that was attached to him.
Mo Xinglu followed suit.
"Gather!"
The cultivators from the True Kunlun Sect and the Void Sect gathered.
Following that, Mo Xinglu and Xuan Chengzi threw out talismans to nullify the life-siphoning energy tendrils.
As for the other cultivators, they did not bother since they were willing to contribute their vitality and energies to Yu Chenshu.
Before Yu Chenshu came to the Sky Wheel Mountain Range, he had already guessed it might be a trap. Therefore, he had prepared this trump card. It did not matter Xuan Chengzi, Mo Xinglu, and their sect members managed to stop their vitality from being absorbed; the other cultivators were enough.
Lu Zhou wielded Unnamed and cut the energy tendrils. Then, karmic fire began to surge out of his body. As expected, the energy tendrils could not come close to the karmic fire. However, to maintain the karmic fire on his body, he would be depleting his Primal Qi. Once his Primal Qi was depleted, how was he going to deal with Yu Chenshu for the second time?
At this moment, Yu Chenshu said with a smile, "I didn't expect I'd have to use this move. In any case, for an elite like you, I should show my respect by going all out."
Whoosh!
At this moment, the place where Yu Chenshu was standing was like the eye of a tornado of Primal Qi and vitality.
Lu Zhou leaped forward with his body bathed in karmic fire. Then, he pressed his palm downward.
Abandon Wisdom!
Lu Zhou used all his extraordinary power in this palm seal.
Meanwhile, Yu Chenshu's expression turned solemn as he stomped on the ground with both feet. With his actions, his robes were torn. Soon after, a life-like puppet appeared in front of him with its hands raised, clearly trying to block Abandon Wisdom!
Boom!
The blue palm seal smashed on Yu Chenshu and the puppet.
A shallow dent in the shape of a hand appeared immediately.
Yu Chenshu's face was badly damaged by the palm seal, and his arms were bent in an unnatural position.
On the other hand, half of the puppet's body was smashed into the ground.
Lu Zhou landed on the ground. 'It's not enough?'
The flag, the Life-Siphoning Technique, continued to do their jobs, absorbing the vitality of the willing cultivators.
Since this impacted their lives, the cultivators in the sky did not dare to contribute too much vitality energy. When it was about time, they quickly cut off the energy tendrils.
Yu Chenshu's eyes shone with vigor as he looked at his bent arms.
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou looked at Yu Chenshu in disgust when he saw strange symbols carved on Yu Chenshu's body. A puppet was painted on Yu Chenshu's body in clear lines and black and grey ink. This feeling was somewhat similar to the disgust he felt when he faced Ye Zhen.
At this moment, a creaking noise rang in the air as Yu Chenshu's arms straightened out.
"Come, show me your Birth Chart power!" Yu Chenshu flipped his palm.
The Confinement Seal shrank rapidly before it flew back into Yu Chenshu's hand.
Meanwhile, the puppet on the ground disappeared.
Bang!
Yu Chengshu carried the Confinement Seal with him as he charged toward Lu Zhou. His speed was so fast that it seemed like he was creating friction with the air as a shrill sound rang in the air.
At this moment, Lu Zhou had depleted all his extraordinary power. He could use his Primal Qi and combined Seeing One's Nature, the Four Mudras, and the Golden Buddha Body,
Boom!
Lu Zhou was sent flying!
Yu Chenshu laughed. He could tell his opponent had lost the offensive and could only defend now. At this moment, due to the nature of the battle, he had lost all his calm. Schemes and plots were useless; he could only rely on his absolute strength.
Yu Chenshu pushed the Confinement Seal against Lu Zhou, causing Lu Zhou to retreat rapidly.
Red karmic fire and golden karmic fire burned dazzlingly as the Confinement Seal was pushed against the retreating Lu Zhou.
"Scram!" Lu Zhou roared.
Buzz!
A 200-foot golden avatar appeared and rapidly increased in size, sending Yu Chenshu flying.
While Lu Zhou retreated, his avatar damaged the mountain at his back. At this moment, an expression of exhaustion could be seen on his face. He had used all his energy and techniques for so long after all. How could he have enough Primal Qi at this time?
At this time, the two opponents faced each other from afar.
Yu Chenshu licked his lips as his eyes shone with joy. He said, "You seemed exhausted."
Lu Zhou shook his head and said calmly, "Is that what you think?"
"The puppet haven absorbed the lives of countless people: peerless powerhouses, babies still in their cradles, the elderly, and weak women… Puppets have almost unrivaled perception. I can tell you're actually not a Birth Chart master…" Yu Chenshu said.
The cultivator above the Sku Wheel Range Mountain who heard Yu Chenshu's words began to whisper among themselves.
"He's not a Birth Chart Master?"
"Even if he hasn't activated his Birth Charts, his strength is still heaven-defying. Most Ten-leaf elites aren't a match for him at all."
Lu Zhou glanced at the mountain behind him. The commotion in the depths of the valley had long stopped; there was no movement at all. Finally, he calmly patted the dust off his robes. Appearance-wise, he was, at least, much better than Yu Chenshu.
Upon seeing this, the smile on Yu Chenshu's face disappeared. As the Court Master of the Sky Martial Court, when had he ever been in such a sorry state? To be safe, he suddenly looked at the sky and loudly said, "Everyone, listen up! Whoever's able to kill him will be handsomely rewarded by the Sky Martial Court. One-leaf to Five-leaf cultivators would be given an earth-grade weapon; Five-leaf to Eight-leaf cultivators would be given a heaven-grade weapon; Nine-leaf cultivators would be given a desolate-grade weapon while Ten-leaf cultivators would be given a… flood-grade weapon! I, Yu Chenshu, will definitely keep my word."
The cultivators surrounding the valley had been observing the battle for a long time. Initially, it seemed like Lu Zhou had the upper hand. However, currently, it seemed like Yu Chenshu was going to win after all.
"The golden lotus domain is a foreign world. They might invade us. This is a good chance for us to retaliate. Do I have to remind you of all this?" Yu Chenshu said, "Moreover, don't forget that he has many treasures in his possession. Most importantly, the life heart is with him!"
Most of the cultivators were neutral. They came here only hoping to reap benefits. How could they not be moved by Yu Chenshu's words?
Lu Zhou tidied his long robe and straightened his back before he said indifferently, "Yu Chenshu, you're the first cultivator who's able to force me to retreat."
1
"Hmm?"
"Alas, that's all you'll be able to do," Lu Zhou said as a Peak Trial Card appeared in his hand. "I hope you'll be able to bear the brunt of my anger."
Yu Chenshu frowned. "What are you waiting for?! Kill this foreign tribesman and the treasures will be yours!"
Apart from Xuan Chengzi, Mo Xinglu, and their members who did not make a move, the other cultivators who were allies of the Sky Martial Court swooped down immediately upon hearing Yu Chenshu's words.
Lu Zhou shattered the Peak Trial Card at this moment. His empty Dantian's sea of Qi was instantly filled to the brim. Following that, he wasted no time in manifesting his Ten-leaf avatar. With the 200-foot avatar in tow, he flew toward Yu Chenshu expressionlessly.
"What's going on?!"
An ominous premonition rose in the cultivators' hearts.
As soon as they drew close to Lu Zhou, he launched countless palm seals in the sky.
The Nine Cut Hand Seals!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The cultivators who had just flown toward Lu Zhou dropped from the sky like flies one after another. Those who tried to stop him were all stopped by the palm seals.
Lu Zhou ignored notifications after notifications that rang in his ears. There was only one person in his eyes at this moment: Yu Chenshu!
Yu Chenshu furrowed his brows and pushed the Confinement Seal out with both palms.
However, before Yu Chenshu could push the Confinement Seal out, Lu Zhou had already arrived before him using his grand technique.
Lu Zhou slammed his palm against Yu Chenshu's immediately without giving Yu Chenshu a chance to act.
The Great Seal of Fearlessness!
The gigantic palm seal pushed Yu Chenshu back rapidly.
Lu Zhou moved at lightning speed and arrived before Yu Chenshu again. Similar to before, he smacked his palm against Yu Chenshu's chest.
Yu Chenshu spat out a mouthful of blood.
Before the blood landed on Lu Zhou's body, a buzzing noise rang in the air as the Golden Buddha Body appeared around Lu Zhou, keeping the blood from staining him.
"???" Yu Chenshu's expression turned unsightly. How could this person use the Golden Buddha Body just to avoid being stained by his blood?
Lu Zhou pushed his hand forward again.
The Great Seal of Fearlessness!
Bang!
A mountain was flattened.
Bang!
Another mountain was flattened.
While Yu Chenshu flew back, a shocking scene appeared before everyone's eyes.
Lu Zhou shone dazzlingly at this moment. His 200-foot golden avatar would flash to the right and to the left once in a while. As he launched a palm strike so would his avatar. What was even more ridiculous was each move was a grand technique!
The Great Seal of Fearlessness!
The Nine Cut Hand Seals!
Abandon Wisdom!
The Great Vajra Wheel Hand Seal!
All of them were cast as though it cost nothing to Lu Zhou.
All of the cultivators felt as though their worldview had been refreshed at this moment.
"…"
Even the Void Sect's Xuan Chengzi and the True Kunlun Sect's Mo Xinglu were dumbfounded.

Chapter 848: The Swirling Clouds, the Tempestuous Wind and Thunder, and the Raging Water
Above the Sky Wheel Rift Valley, the 200-foot golden avatar was shining dazzlingly.
The cultivators who were close to it could barely look at it due to how bright it was. Moreover, they did not understand what they were seeing as well. When they looked down, they saw flashing palm seals and corpses strewn all over from the entrance to the depths of the valley. Apart from that, the Sky Wheel Mountain Range was riddled with palm-shaped holes.
Some self-proclaimed powerful cultivators were smashed into pulps by the palm seals before they could even widen their eyes in shock.
Xuan Chengzi and Mo Xinglu had regarded Yu Chenshu as a stronger Ten-leaf elite, and at most, Lu Zhou was slightly stronger than Yu Chenshu. However, at this moment, Lu Zhou's performance had completely overturned their opinions. Even an elite who had activated his Birth Chart would not be so heaven-defying, right?
Xuan Chengzi had clearly seen Lu Zhou cast the Nine Cut Hand Seals at a disciple at the Sense Condensing Realm who had just climbed up the Sky Wheel Mountain Range. He was absolutely not mistaken that it was the Nine Cut Hand Seals, and such a technique was used on a disciple at the Sense Condensing Realm who could only climb mountains and wade through waters but was unable to fly yet.
Xuan Chengzi felt his hands tremble. When he saw the disparity between his strength and Lu Zhou's strength, he could not help but doubt himself. "Am I… Am I a fake Ten-leaf cultivator?"
This was the first time Xuan Chengzi had felt this way. He truly wondered if he had really reached the Ten-leaf stage.
Upon hearing his words, Mo Xinglu said in a daze, "I feel the same way as well. There's a possibility this senior was holding back his strength all along…"
"How about… escaping?"
"We can't escape."
At the same time, behind Xuan Chengzi and Mo Xinglu, a Nine-leaf cultivator with a pale face coughed violently before he said, "We have to meditate and recuperate as soon as possible. The karmic fire has already invaded the inner body. If we don't treat it in time, I'm afraid our internal organs and Extraordinary Eight Meridians will be destroyed."
If they left, they would definitely die. If they recuperated here, they might have a chance of surviving. They were all aware of the effects of the karmic fire.
Let alone Nine-leaf cultivators, even a Ten-leaf elite like Sikong Beichen would have a hard time recovering after being hit by the karmic fire, especially one from a Ten-leaf elite.
"Go down and heal yourself."
"Understood."
The Void Sect and the True Kunlun Sect had no intention of participating in the battle and landed on the Sky Wheel Mountain Range.
…
Meanwhile, the other cultivators were frightened to their bones. How terrifying was it to see a person constantly unleashing grand techniques as though they cost nothing? Moreover, the golden palm seals shrouded with karmic in the sky hit every target accurately.
The clouds above the Sky Wheel Mountain Range churned from the roiling energy, the earth within dozens of miles quaked, and the water and the water raged. At the same time, claps of thunder sounded in the sky while the wind stirred up into a flurry of hurricanes.
…
Yu Chenshu who was brimming with confidence felt his confidence collapsing as he witnessed this scene. The puppet he was proud of, with its invulnerability, techniques, cultivation, and weapons, was like a toy in front of Lu Zhou.
Bang!
Yu Chenshu crashed into another mountain. The rocks that rolled down the mountain from the impact were like his heart that was constantly sinking.
'Why? Was he holding back his strength earlier? How?'
Bang!
At this moment, Yu Chenshu's body landed near the entrance of the valley and was stuck there. Soon enough, his weapon, the Confinement Seal, landed in front of him.
Lu Zhou did not relent. Palm seals after palm seals landed on Yu Chenshu, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood. At this moment, the black and grey drawing on Yu Chenshu's body seemed to have dimmed slightly.
Yu Chenshu looked up at Lu Zhou in disbelief as Lu Zhou continued to unleash grand techniques after grand techniques, taking everyone down. At this moment, he realized he had made a mistake; a very grave mistake.
Following that, Yu Chenshu moved his arm and dislodged himself from the crack before he landed on the Confinement Seal. He panted heavily; he felt dizzy, his ears were ringing; he had lost his calm.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Another three Nascent Divinity Realm cultivators fell from the sky.
At this moment, a corpse smashed toward Yu Chenshu. Alarmed, he quickly pushed the corpse away with hands that glowed red.
Suddenly, a beam of light shone on Yu Chenshu body.
At some point, Lu Zhou had already arrived above Yu Chenshu. He held the Golden Taixu Mirror and shone it on Yu Chenshu again, forcing whatever little that was left of his extraordinary power into the mirror. With the help of the Purple Glazed Ceramic, he managed to recover the slightest bit of his extraordinary power. However, even the slightest bit of extraordinary power was useful.
From the mirror, Lu Zhou could see Yu Chenshu's puppet had been gravely injured. Its size had shrunk by more than half at this moment. After putting the Golden Taixu Mirror away, he asked indifferently, "Yu Chenshu, tell me, what do you think?"
As soon as Lu Zhou finished speaking, Yu Chenshu grunted and spat out a mouthful of blood. "Impossible! I don't believe this! This is not possible!"
Bang!
Yu Chenshu glared at Lu Zhou as blood mist began to rise from his body as he charged toward Lu Zhou. He mustered up all the vitality he had collected while the Life-Siphoning Technique and attacked Lu Zhou.
For a moment, Yu Chenshu's afterimages filled the sky.
Lu Zhou only looked at Yu Chenshu expressionlessly and shook his head. He had more than enough time to wait for Yu Chenshu to use up all his trump cards. Since he had used the Peak Trial Cards several times now, he knew how to use the cards to their full potential.
Lu Zhou casually cast his techniques to defend himself.
Seeing One's Nature, the Four Ward Mudras, the Six Compatible Seal, the Eight Trigrams Seal, and the Golden Buddha Body.
Who had ever seen such techniques being cast so casually and at the same time?
The sound of resonance from the techniques rang one after another in the air.
As Yu Chenshu moved and attacked in a frenzy, his afterimages surrounded Lu Zhou.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Nonetheless, Lu Zhou remained as stable as Mount Tai with his Golden Buddha Body, occasionally unleashing his grand techniques. Whatever Yu Chengshu managed to damage, he would repair it with ease and speed. At the same time, he was thinking about how he could kill the puppet. If he still could not kill the puppet after the time from the Peak Trial Card ran out, he would really be out of his depth.
"No… No… I don't believe this!" Yu Chenshu's storm-like attack fell on Lu Zhou's impregnable defenses as though his attacks were made from cotton. At most, they managed to cause faint ripples. Since he had been attacking in a frenzy, it was only natural that his consumption of Primal Qi was high.
As time passed, Yu Chenshu's speed grew slower and slower. It was not long before his palm seals began to weaken as well. At this moment, he was filled with despair as he looked at his opponent's defenses and the Golden Buddha Body that still looked as glorious as before. Moreover, his opponent Primal Qi did not seem to decrease at all!
Whoosh!
Out of desperation, Yu Chenshu struck one last time, launching a palm seal. Then, he fell to the ground and landed on one knee. Blood and sweat dripped from his body to the ground as he panted heavily.
"Exhausted?" Lu Zhou shook his head and said indifferently, "You've overestimated yourself, trying to hit a rock with an egg."
Subsequently, Lu Zhou checked the time. He was left with almost half the time from the Peak Trial Card. Then, he shifted his attention to the drawing on Yu Chenshu's body; it had grown even lighter now. Could the drawing be the life force of the puppet? If the drawing, or the life force disappeared, would the puppet die?
Lu Zhou recalled when he had stabbed Yu Chenshu with Unnamed, the puppet had suffered serious injuries as well. It was only due to the Life-Siphoning Technique that the puppet was restored. Without the replenishment from the vitality energy, it would not have recovered.
An idea began to form in Lu Zhou's mind at this moment. He descended and landed in front of Yu Chenshu.
"You! Who are you, Brother Lu? Where did you come from?" Yu Chenshu asked calmly, suppressing the fear and despair that were rising in his heart. Whether it was intentional or not, he had begun to use honorifics to address Lu Zhou.
"You know the answer to that."
"…" Yu Chenshu really did not know! Lu Zhou's energy was golden, then, sometimes it was blue and black!
Yu Chenshu grew calmer and calmer. Then, he asked through gritted teeth, "Fine. Let this last move determine our life and death!"
Yu Chenshu suddenly charged forward as black runes suddenly appeared on the drawing on his body. The black runes suddenly solidified into a saber and stabbed at Lu Zhou.
"Black runes?" Lu Zhou frowned.
Whoosh!
Lu Zhou shook his head and easily moved back. In just a few breaths, he had returned to the depths of the valley where blood flowed like a river, and corpses and severed limbs were strewn on the ground.
Yu Chenshu chased after Lu Zhou. His expression was one of unwillingness. Why did that person choose to retreat at this moment? His mood sank to the lowest depth. Finally, he understood Lu Zhou's earlier words. It seemed like he never did understand his opponent.
After a moment, Yu Chenshu saw Lu Zhou standing in the valley. With hatred boiling in his heart, he stabbed Lu Zhou. He would risk his life or death on this!
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou moved three steps forward in just a breath and appeared behind Yu Chenshu. Since he possessed unlimited Primal Qi now, let alone touching his body, Yu Chenshu could not even get close to him.
Upon realizing the futility of his action, Yu Chen was about to turn tail and run.
"It's too late," Lu Zhou said emotionlessly as he unleashed ten Abandon Wisdoms consecutively.
The appearance of the ten golden palm seals was as dazzling as the sun. Due to the palm seals overlapping, the characters 'Abandon Wisdom' could hardly be seen. They fell in the sky like a meteor toward Yu Chenshu.
Bang!
The palm seals landed on Yu Chenshu's back, causing him to stumble forward.
Lu Zhou looked at the depths of the canyon before he launched another palm seal. "Do you know why I chose this place?"
At this moment, Yu Chenshu could not stop throwing up blood. Fear and despair had taken over all his emotions. How could he think about anything else?
Bang!
Another few palm seals landed on Yu Chenshu again. At this moment, the black saber in front of him suddenly shot into the forest in the depths of the valley.
Then, the black saber split into hundreds of sabers before it further split into thousands of sabers and finally exploded.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
This move, which contained all of Yu Chenshu's power, landed on the valley and the mountains, causing the earth and mountains to quake violently.
Just as Lu Zhou had said, it was already too late when realization finally dawned on Yu Chenshu.

Chapter 849: I Beg You To Kill Me
The surviving cultivators were attracted by the thunderous sound.
At the same time, the ground in the valley and the mountains of the Sky Wheel Mountain Range shook. Rocks rolled down the mountains, and the mountains looked as though they were on the verge of collapsing. The Sky Wheel Mountain Range that was already in ruins to begin with became even worse.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Just like that, the Sky Wheel Range Mountain that most cultivators revered were partially collapsed at this moment.
All the cultivators scrambled out of the way; leaping and flying into the sky to avoid the chaos and destruction. When they were safely in the air, they looked at the valley in shock and confusion. What happened? Why did the mountains suddenly collapse? What was the cause of this destruction?
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou had long expected this. When he heard the continuous noises of thunderous thumping from the depths of the valley, he had speculated that a Birth Chart Beast was hidden there. It was probably making its way here but was blocked by the mountains. Based on the destruction of the Sky Wheel Mountain Range and the Sky Wheel Rift Valley, he had a feeling the beast was likely stronger and fiercer than the Yong, just like the one he encountered in the bottomless abyss in the golden lotus domain.
Lu Zhou had seen Yu Chenshu launching a weak palm seal earlier before Yu Chenshu had a spurt of increase in strength. Therefore, he was certain Yu Chengshu had mastered some secret techniques. How could the seemingly weak and black sharp blade have only so few runes? As he had expected, that technique was probably a life or death technique that was beyond his imagination.
The rocks that rolled down the mountains fell into the abyss in the valley.
Lu Zhou activated his protective energy and entered the abyss. It was like he had entered a cave. Strangely, the 'cave' was not affected by the destruction outside.
After a beat, Lu Zhou checked the time he had left; he had more than ten minutes left. Without any hesitation, he released his energy and sent the rocks and rubble flying.
After clearing the obstruction in his path, he walked toward the side of the 'cave' and saw a surprising scene. What everyone thought was just a crack to the abyss was clearly not just that. It was a huge trench that was formed by lava under a volcano that was flowing to an unknown location.
When Lu Zhou lifted his head, he saw Yu Chenshu on the other side of the trench, buried into the rock wall and unable to move. His blood dripped down the stone wall, dyeing it red.
Sizzling noises could be heard whenever some of Yu Chenshu's blood dripped into the flowing lava. It was evaporated in just a blink of an eye by the scorching hot lava. Due to the heat, it did not take long before the blood that was dripping down the mountain dried up and hardened.
"S-save… Save me… Save me…" What a rare sight. Yu Chenshu was crying out for help.
Lu Zhou disregarded Yu Chenshu's plea for help and brought the Golden Taixu Mirror out again.
Buzz!
A buzzing noise rang in the air as a golden beam of light shone from the mirror on Yu Chenshu.
Through the Golden Taixu Mirror, Lu Zhou could see that Yu Chenshu's puppet was in a wretched and hideous state at this moment. Moreover, its body was rapidly shrinking. Apart from that, it was so weak now that it could no longer hide from the desolate-grade Golden Taixu Mirror.
Lu Zhou looked down and wondered where did the huge beast go. How strange. However, he did not dwell on the matter and asked, "Where's Luo Xuan?"
"S-save… me… Save…" Yu Chenshu's aura was clearly weakening by the second.
Lu Zhou frowned slightly; he wondered if he had been too heavy-handed. What would he do if he could not find out Luo Xuan's whereabouts because Yu Chenshu died?
After a beat, the frown on his face eased. There were many people in the Sky Martial Court. If he could not dig out information from Yu Chenshu, he would just find someone else from the Sky Martial Court to interrogate.
Lu Zhou raised his hand suddenly; Unnamed appeared immediately. It was time to send Yu Chenshu to hell. To be safe, he had to save some time from the Peak Trial Card to intimidate the surviving cultivators.
However, at this moment, a huge figure suddenly leaped up from below.
An ear-piercing and shrill cry rang in the air.
Lu Zhou saw a huge beast that looked like a panther, but it was red and had five tails. At this moment, the beast was pouncing toward him.
"Birth Chart Beast?" Lu Zhou felt his heart stirred as he avoided the beast.
"T-the Zheng…" Yu Chenshu said weakly when he saw the ferocious beast. Despite the state he was in, he was clearly surprised when he saw this Birth Chart Beast.
"The Zheng?"
Boom!
The Zheng pounced on Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou avoided the Zheng in a flash. At the same time, the Golden Buddha Body formed a seal and kept the heat from the lava at bay. He cried out fiercely, "Livestock! You're seeking death!"
Using everything in nature as a sword.
Lu Zhou cast Primal Restoration!
Unnamed hovered in the middle as energy swords filled the entire place. Then, all of them collectively shot toward the ferocious Birth Chart Beast.
The fierce beast roared, revealing its deadly fangs. It swiped at Lu Zhou fiercely with its sharp claws. The fur on its body stood on ends, somewhat like a porcupine. However, the fur was like iron. It was clearly trying its best to defend against the energy swords.
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou flew up in just a blink of an eye before he pressed his palm down.
Abandon Wisdom landed on the fierce beasts.
Then, in just a breath, Lu Zhou launched ten consecutive palm strikes.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The beast's eyes shone with killing intent. However, Lu Zhou's attacks that were beyond the limit of humans had halved the beast's killing intent.
Plop!
The final palm strike knocked the beast into the lava, and the scorching heat of the lava burned the beast.
Meanwhile, Yu Chenshu who had grown even weaker looked at Lu Zhou in disbelief. He had thought he would be able to defeat Lu Zhou. Alas, at this moment, he discovered his opponent could still unleash his grand techniques. There was no sign of his opponent weakening at all!
Yu Chenshu raised his head and stabilized himself by placing his hands on the stone wall before he weakly asked, "J-just… Just… how strong are you?"
Lu Zhou ignored Yu Chenshu; he was completely focused on the ferocious Birth Chart Beast. Since he did not receive the system notification, he knew the beast was not dead.
Splash!
At this moment, the ferocious beast leaped out of the lava, creating a huge splash of fiery-red liquid in the air.
"No! Save me!"
Lu Zhou saw the splashes of lava that were definitely going to land on Yu Chenshu. There was no doubt the scorching lava would kill Yu Chenshu if it landed on him. At the critical moment, he flashed to Yu Chenshu's side, using the Six Compatible Seal and the Golden Buddha Body to keep the lava at bay.
Following that, he raised his hand again and launched ten successive Nine Cut Hand Seals that were like a golden meteor shower toward the ferocious beast.
Finally, Lu Zhou turned to look at Yu Chenshu.
Although Lu Zhou had saved Yu Chenshu, hints of unwillingness could be seen in his eyes.
Lu Zhou said indifferently, "You can only die in my hands today!" After he finished speaking, he smacked his palm on Yu Chenshu's chest.
Bang!
That palm strike left Lu Zhou's hand drenched in blood and Yu Chenshu's chest caved in.
"You!" Yu Chenshu's eyes widened the moment before he died.
"Ding! Killed the puppet. Obtained 6,000 merit points."
Lu Zhou grabbed Yu Chenshu and flew up into the sky.
At this moment, the Birth Chart Beast seemed to be in a frenzy, but Lu Zhou, naturally, was not afraid at all.
Lu Zhou looked down and saw the sign of the puppet on Yu Chenshu's chest gradually disappearing. All the vitality it had collected seemed to be disappearing as well. Finally, it expended the last of its vitality energy to heal Yu Chenshu's chest and disappeared completely.
If one did not witness it with their own eyes, who would have believed the puppet was so powerful?
At this moment, energy surged out of Lu Zhou's body as he brought out the Golden Taixu Mirror again and shone it on Yu Chenshu. The puppet had disappeared, and the drawing on Yu Chenshu's body was completely gone.
This meant that all this while Yu Chenshu had two lives. However, the puppet had what was equivalent to a long health bar that could be replenished over and over again with the Life-Siphoning Technique.
Previously, Lu Zhou had thought Ye Zhen's Nine Infants avatar was already very strange. Now that he had seen the puppet, he found it even more strange and unbelievable.
After receiving the system notification of the puppet's death, Lu Zhou felt more at ease. Although Yu Chenshu still had one life left, he could easily take Yu Chenshu's life with just a palm strike. After all, Yu Chenshu had already lost his puppet and was on the brink of death. Moreover, even when Yu Chenshu still had the puppet and two lives, Yu Chenshu was still no match for Lu Zhou who had unlimited Primal Qi.
Rumble!
The ferocious leaped up again at lightning speed.
Lu Zhou was calm. He still had unlimited Primal Qi after all. As he held onto Yu Chenshu with one hand, he swung his other hand out swiftly.
In the sky, the sky flashed with energies again.
At this moment, Yu Chenshu finally regained consciousness even though his mind was rather muddled. He was now numb when he saw Lu Zhou's limitless energy, attacks, grand techniques, energy swords, and palm seals. He coughed violently for a long time, clearly in pain. The pain was so excruciating that he felt as though his body was being torn apart. In the end, he could no longer endure and pleaded, "K-kill… Kill me…"
Yu Chenshu gave up. Who would desire to live under such torture? If this continued, his condition would be worse than death itself. It was better for him to beg for death. In order to seek liberation from the pain, he chose death.
"I… I b-beg you… Kill me!"

Chapter 850: Thousand Realms Whirling (1)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Who would believe that the Court Master of the Sky Martial Court, the cultivation genius whom many people looked up to, would beg for death at this moment? However, this was only normal and could not be blamed on Yu Chenshu. No one would want to live, having to experience such excruciating pain.
Yu Chenshu really could not endure it any longer. The death of the puppet had completely destroyed his last line of psychological defense. For many years, the puppet had been his trump card. Even a revered and legendary figure like Ye Zhen had to show some modicum of respect to him. Losing the puppet was worse than taking his life. He thought it was better to beg for death instead of struggling in futility.
At this moment, Yu Chenshu seemed clear-minded again. He lifted his head suddenly and opened his eyes with great difficulty before he looked at Lu Zhou and pleaded again, "I beg you. Kill me."
Yu Chenshu was currently firmly held in Lu Zhou's hand. It was impossible for him to break free. He wished he could struggle free and fall into the lava so he could die. Alas, the current him was so weak. He was so weak that it was difficult just to breathe.
Lu Zhou did not pay any attention to Yu Chenshu at all. His attention was all focused on the ferocious beast.
After the ferocious had leaped out of the lava, its entire body was now bathed in flames. It was a rather amazing sight to behold.
Lu Zhou moved back and forth at top speed, launching palm seals from time to time to repel the beast.
Upon seeing this, Yu Chenshu realized there were all kinds of wonders in this vast world. He realized now how ignorant he had been and how weak he was. He once thought he was invincible. What a joke. He was only deceiving himself and other people. Moreover, even if he still had the puppet, he was not confident he could kill this huge beast.
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou frowned. He was trying to find the beast's weakness. He had used the power of Yu Chenshu's black runes to blast open the crack to the abyss in the valley. However, he did not expect that there was lava flowing underneath the valley. If it were not for his unlimited Primal Qi, the scorching temperature alone was enough to make it difficult to continue any further.
The ferocious beast's attacks grew more and more frenzied.
Lu Zhou was insignificantly small compared to the beast. However, his speed was so fast that he always avoided the beast.
'This beast is really quite strong.' After such a long time, should it not feel exhausted?
Lu Zhou looked at Unnamed at this moment. Then, in just a blink of an eye, he retreated hundreds of meters back, widening the gap between him and the beast.
Subsequently, dozens of energy swords appeared in front of Lu Zhou.
At this time, the beast leaped up again.
Under the dim light of the lava, Lu Zhou manipulated the energy swords and sent them toward the beast's chest.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The energy swords shot out like a flurry of hurricanes at the ferocious beast. Its leaping momentum was forcefully stopped by the energy swords.
Meanwhile, Unnamed was currently surrounded by tens of thousands of energy swords. Black runes revolved around it at the same time. Similar to the attack before, they were sent toward the beast's chest.
Bang!
Perhaps, the beast could have repelled the energy swords. However, it stood no chance against Unnamed.
At this moment, the sound of flesh tearing resounded in the air.
The ferocious beast roared and twisted its body wildly in the air. Unnamed had finally left a hole on its chest!
Lu Zhou flashed twice in the air and looked down at the ferocious beast as he said, "You're much stronger than Yu Chenshu. You actually managed to partly block Unnamed."
Yu Chenshu. "…"
Blood began to drip out of the ferocious beast's wound. Its size was so big that the droplets of blood were the size of an adult's fist. However, before they landed on the ground, they evaporated from the heat.
Lu Zhou checked the time again. He had less than eight minutes left. He had to end things quickly. He could choose to leave or waste time here and look for the beast's weakness… Or he could use a Deadly Strike Card. However, since he had used a Peak Trial Card, he did not think it was worth it to use a Deadly Strike Card.
At this moment, the ferocious beast pounced again. It seemed even more frenzied than before. Its eyes seemed to burn with flames and its roar resounded in the entire place.
Lu Zhou did not waste time and quickly pushed his hand out.
Dozens of Great Vajra Wheel Hand Signs burning with the karmic fire landed on the ferocious beast.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
"Avatar!"
The 200-foot golden lotus avatar hovered majestically above the lava.
"Golden Buddha's Body!"
Lu Zhou discovered that due to the huge size of his avatar, it might be affected by the heat. Therefore, he activated the Golden Buddha's Body to keep the heat at bay.
Yu Chenshu chuckled self-deprecatingly before a sad smile appeared on his face. How was this normal? The following scene was definitely the craziest and most unbelievable scene he had ever seen in his life.
There was suddenly an endless storm of grand techniques, energy swords, palm seals, energy sabers, and energy fists. They surged violently like the tempestuous ocean.
Time was golden, after all. Since Lu Zhou did not have time to find the beast's weakness, he would try to kill the beast by throwing all his techniques at it.
Meanwhile, Yu Chenshu's vision and hearing began to fail. He could no longer see clearly or hear anything.
In fact, the ferocious beast did not expect such a tiny human could suddenly erupt with such explosive strength.
Finally, under the onslaught of the overwhelming and ruthless assault, the ferocious beast was pushed into the lava again. When the last palm strike slammed down, the energy in the air suddenly disappeared, and everything was unnaturally still.
The only obvious movements at this moment were the flowing and some bubbling of the lava. However, the bubbling did not seem like it was because of the high temperature.
"It's bubbling? It's still alive?" Lu Zhou was pressed for time. If the ferocious still did not die, he had no other choice but to use the Deadly Strike Card.
At this moment, the lava suddenly began to roil and surge.
'No!' Lu Zhou made several hand seals and moved at top speed as he flew toward the crack above the lava with Yu Chenshu in tow.
The lava continued to surge and bubble in anger.
Lu Zhou felt something was amiss so he turned back to have a look.
The lava was surging like a rising tide.
Lu Zhou wondered if this was an ability of the ferocious beast or if the beast had grown in size.
Lu Zhou looked at the remaining time he had again from the Peak Trial Card. It was not a problem for him to escape from this place within five minutes. However, if he left now, he would be giving up on this Birth Chart Beast's life heart! He felt a little regretful at this moment. If he had known earlier this would happen, he would not have wasted so much time and immediately attacked it with all his might before taking its life heart away!
Lu Zhou looked at the remaining time of the Pinnacle Card. Five minutes was not a problem for him to escape this place. But this meant that he had to give up on this life matrix beast!
As Lu Zhou moved up, the lava suddenly rose all the way up.
The ground above shook, and the destroyed the Sky Wheel Mountain Range was further damaged.
At this moment, Lu Zhou suddenly sensed a unique energy rising from the ground beneath him. He instantly knew it was not from the ferocious beast but something even more powerful?
Could it be nature itself? A volcano eruption? An earthquake? However, it did not seem like it.
Whoosh!
A strong suction force pulled on Lu Zhou, along with Yu Chenshu.
Previously, the lava was just like a stream, but at this time, it had turned into an ocean of lava!
"I've overdone it…" Lu Zhou used all the defensive techniques he had in his arsenal to keep the tide of lava at bay.
Whoosh!
The lava continued to rise until it escaped from the entrance.
Lu Zhou felt a sense of unprecedented danger at this moment from below, very far below the ground. The energy was nothing like anything he had known or could even imagine. The energy rose and attacked.
A strange sense of danger came from below, far beyond the lava and far beyond the known power. It permeated and attacked.
At this moment, Lu Zhou was truly shocked when he saw the series of notifications.
"Critical Block Card -1"
"Critical Block Card -1"
"Critical Block Card -1"
"Critical Block Card -1"
The Golden Buddha's Body and the defensive techniques were useless?
Was it a kind of corrosive energy?
"…"
"I better go." Lu Zhou no longer thought about the huge beast. If he continued to stay, he would definitely die! He did not even have time to look at Yu Chenshu; he only kept moving at top speed.
Lu Zhou was just about to leave through the entrance when…
Splash!
Lu Zhou's heart sank immediately. The terrifying energy was about to hit him.
At this moment, the sound of something breaking the surface of the lava rang in the air.
Lu Zhou saw a huge black palm reaching out from the lava before it carried Lu Zhou and his avatar, repelling the corrosive energy. Then, the black palm shone with dark light on Yu Chenshu, protecting Yu Chenshu from the corrosive energy as well!
'Black lotus?! The black lotus came to save me?!'
Boom!
Lu Zhou and Yu Chenshu were in the black palm as it broke through the entrance, bringing them above ground. Then, he instinctively lifted his head when he felt a shadow falling on him.
He saw an avatar with an indescribable height. It was completely black and glowing at the same time!
Meanwhile, ten black lotus leaves revolved around the gargantuan black lotus at the bottom. In the middle of the black lotus, a few spots of light could be seen.
Lu Zhou was rather speechless. 'So… it still can shine even though it's completely black…'
Black mist suddenly rose from the black lotus avatar that was standing on the lotus at this moment. Then, its body seemed to glow with a faint blue light.
Lu Zhou took a closer look at the black lotus avatar and discovered there was a black crown on its head. There were ten points on the crown that looked like miniature lotus leaves. Apart from that, there was a glowing lotus imprinted on the avatar's forehead. At the back of the avatar was a floating astrolabe.
'This… Is this the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar?'
As Lu Zhou looked further up, he saw a man dressed in a scholarly robe sitting cross-legged above the black lotus avatar. The man was very handsome.
The man did not move except to raise his head before he said, "Hold on tight!"
Boom!
The Thousand Realms Whirling avatar cleaved the already damaged Sky Wheel Mountain Range in two. The mountain range had been pretty much destroyed earlier, but now, it was truly and utterly destroyed!
He could finally see the sky!
The light is back!
