Zhu Honggong asked excitedly, “Master, what is it?”
Lu Zhou brought out a feather and said, “This feather is left by the Fire Phoenix. Use it to summon it here.”
Zhu Honggong asked in confusion, “Master, didn’t you say you need the blood essence of the Four Divinities of Heaven? The Fire Phoenix is useless, right?”
On the contrary, Li Yunzheng’s eyes lit up when he saw the feather. He smiled and explained, “Eighth Junior Uncle, you might not know this but the Fire Phoenix’s status is on par with the Fire Deity. It’s just that for some reason the Phoenix clan fell into decline. In terms of bloodline and status, the Fire Phoenix in the ancient times isn’t inferior to the Fire Deity. In fact, the Fire Phoenix’s true fire is superior to the Fire Deity’s. It’ll be good for master since master is the descendant of the Fire Deity clan, and he has the Fire Deity’s blood coursing through his veins.”
Zhu Honggong nodded. “That makes sense! I’ll call the Fire Phoenix here now.”
After that, Zhu Honggong took the feather and left the southern pavilion.
Jiang Aijian said, “The Fire Phoenix’s blood essence can indeed replace Ling Guang’s blood essence. However, what about the other three Divinities of Heaven?”
“Meng Zhang, the Azure Dragon, owes me a favor. I don’t think he’ll be stingy with his blood essence,” Lu Zhou said.
There were still two Divinities of Heaven.
Lu Zhou paced back and forth with his hands on his back as he said, “Zhi Ming, the Black Tortoise, is far away in the east of the Endless Ocean. Bai Zhaoju, the White Emperor, should have a deep understanding of it. Old Seventh has a good relationship with him, and I’ve met him a few times. I don’t think he’ll leave Old Seventh to die.”

“Then, there’s still one more…” Jiang Aijian said.
“The last one…” Lu Zhou trailed off, falling deep into his thoughts.
Jiang Aijian asked, “Even Senior Ji doesn’t know?”
“Jian Bing, the White Tiger, has disappeared since ancient times. No one knows its whereabouts. It would be difficult to find it, but it’s not impossible. The Four Divinities of Heaven have a connection with each other. I’ll ask Meng Zhang about it in person,” Lu Zhou said.
Jiang Aijian nodded. “Senior is wise.”
Lu Zhou turned to look at Si Wuya who was still asleep. He felt at ease and relieved. This was already very good. They only had to take one step at a time. Three hundred years was a long time.
At this moment, Princess Yong Ning came in and said, “Senior Ji, I’ve tidied up the eastern pavilion. Why don’t you stay for the night?”
Lu Zhou nodded and walked out.
Jiang Aijian followed closely behind.
…
When Lu Zhou and Jiang Aijian arrived at the eastern pavilion, Lu Zhou asked, “Have you returned to the imperial palace at all?”
Jiang Aijian nodded and sighed, “On the second day after I returned to the imperial palace, Grandma passed away. Perhaps, she… has been waiting for me. It was her last wish. Alas, she was unconscious at that time so she didn’t get to see me.”
Lu Zhou said, “The world is unpredictable. I’m sorry for your loss.”
Jiang Aijian forced a smile on his face and said, “It’s been more than 200 years. It’s nothing. I can only blame myself for being born in the wrong place.”
…
The night was silent. The night in the Evil Sky Pavilion was quiet and pleasant like it was 300 years ago.
The imbalance was decreasing as well.
Zhu Honggong tried to use the feather to summon the Fire Phoenix. Alas, the distance between the golden lotus domain and the green lotus domain was quite far. He did not know when the Fire Phoenix would arrive so he could only wait.
…
In the eastern pavilion.
Lu Zhou brought out five Qilin’s life hearts from the Vast Sky Bag. Then, he looked at his lifespan on the system interface.
Lifespan: 73,262,2744 days (2,007,185 years)
He had obtained a million years from the Unholy One at Grand Mystic Mountain, and he obtained another 750,000 years when he became a supreme being.
After passing five Birth Trials, each additional Birth Chart would grant 50,000 years of life. From there, after activating three Birth Charts, one would be able to activate a Great Birth Chart which would grant one 100,000 years. The final Birth Chart would grant one even more life. There were also the light disks that increased one’s lifespan.
It could be seen that the improvement from the last four Great Birth Charts was tremendous.
Lu Zhou was fortunate that he obtained the Unholy One’s four power cores. If he had followed the normal cultivation path, who knew how much time it would take him to progress to this stage?
Apart from the two million years of lifespan, Lu Zhou also had 366,000 Reversal Cards.
In short, he had no problems with his lifespan for now.
The blue avatar’s strength was not low, but its strength could still be improved. If he did not upgrade it now, then when should he do it?
Lu Zhou brought out the blue avatar’s lotus.
Due to the fusion, the blue avatar had taken on a lot of the golden avatar’s characteristics. As its strength increased, the blue would become more obvious again. It was clear that the color was controlled by the stronger avatar.
Lu Zhou thought about the messy colors of the Nihilist Congregation’s avatars. He could not help but shake his head. If they revealed their avatars or lotuses in the Great Void, they would be beaten to death in public.
Lu Zhou shifted his attention back to the blue lotus. Since the blue avatar was not restricted by the order of life hearts, he waved his hand and simply inserted the five Qilin’s life hearts into his lotus seat.
Click!
The lotus seat was like a clear and calm lake. When the life hearts touched it, they created many ripples. Then, it began to spin.
Lu Zhou could feel the power of the blue avatar increasing at an incomprehensible speed. It was like a flooded lake or countless rivers converging into the ocean.
He looked at his lifespan that was decreasing. The decrease was nothing considering the lifespan he had.
With that, Lu Zhou closed his eyes and meditated on the Heavenly Writing. At the same time, he activated the Purple Glazed Ceramic and used the divine power to stabilize the activation of his blue avatar’s Birth Charts.
At this time, the divine mark robe seemed to be glowing with a very faint blue light.
…
The Sacred Temple.
After recuperating for a period of time, Hua Zhenghong finally managed to stabilize her light disk.
After reporting to Ming Xin in the main hall, Hua Zhenghong said, “Your Majesty, I really don’t understand. He was so hostile and acted recklessly during the commanders’ competition. Not only did you not punish him, but you also killed the beast tamer. Why?”
Hua Zhenghong did not understand Ming Xin’s actions at all.
A figure sat on the throne in the main hall.
“Hua Zhenghong, are you doubting me?”
“I don’t dare!” Hua Zhenghong bowed and said, “I just want to continue serving Your Majesty. I don’t want to be like Zui Can. Zui Can’s death is really mysterious. There’s an expert in the Great Void now who’s not any weaker than the ten hall masters. It’s really too strange…”
At this time, Wen Ruqing and Guan Jiu appeared in the hall. They bowed at the same time and said, “Your Majesty, Hua Zhenghong has a point.”
They were not fools.
The Sacred Temple was above the ten halls, and it had always been ruled by Ming Xin’s powerful fist.
On the surface, they obeyed the Temple Master of the Sacred Temple, but inwardly, they were filled with complaints and dissatisfaction.
The commanders’ competition was clearly important. They did not understand why Ming Xin did not care about it.
Ming Xin said, “I don’t care about these trivial matters because I have more important matters to attend to.”
“More important matters?”
‘Is there anything more important than what’s in front of us?’
The trio was perplexed.
Ming Xin said, “You’ve followed me for 100,000 years. Have I ever let you down in the past 100,000 years?”
“Your Majesty, naturally, we trust you completely in regard to this,” Hua Zhenghong said.
Ming Xin nodded before he waved his hand. The Scales of Justice flew out of his sleeve and hovered in front of everyone.
The Scales of Justice creaked and tilted back and forth.
Hua Zhenghong was surprised when she saw the scales moving so much. “This…”
“Ever since the imbalance started, the scales had never really recovered their balance or stopped moving. Recently, the imbalance looked as though it’s decreasing, but in fact, it has grown worse.”
Under such circumstances, the lower one’s cultivation was, the harder it would be to sense the changes in the balance.
Hua Zhenghong frowned. “What do you mean, Your Majesty? Is the Great Void really going to collapse?”
Ming Xin remained silent.
Wen Ruqing and Guan Jiu were stunned.
Suddenly, the scales creaked loudly and turned thirty degrees, pointing at a specific direction.
“Huh?”
“This direction…”
“It should be in the direction of the golden lotus domain and the yellow lotus domain. I guess another expert has been born…”
“The golden lotus domain’s limit was originally eight leaves, and it was almost at the bottom among the domains. However, in the past few hundred years, it has improved by leaps and bounds.”
“Your Majesty, I’m willing to go to the golden lotus domain to investigate.”
The trio looked at Ming Xin.
Contrary to their expectations, Ming Xin shook his head and said, “It’s not important.”
“???”
Ming Xin continued to say, “Make sure the ten hall commanders get the Heaven Suppressing Pestle and comprehend the Great Dao as soon as possible. This will be your priority. Don’t neglect your duties.”
