Chapter 1171: The Ultimate Performance
Lu Zhou waved his hand, and a crystal-clear life heart flew toward Lu Wu.
Cao Zechun ordered decisively, “Go!”
About roughly ten people attacked in unison from each of the four directions.
Lu Zhou silently recited the mantra for the power of muting.
The blue lotus bloomed, and a surging energy swept out in all directions like a tsunami.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Unsurprisingly, more than ten people were sent flying in the air.
“The power of heaven and earth?” Cao Zechun waved the staff in his hand.
Circles of light spun out, healing the injured members of the monster hunting squad.
Lu Zhou frowned slightly. ‘What an exquisite healing technique. So the opponent is a nurse…’
“So you’re an expert who has passed two Birth Trials… Alas, you’re unlucky to have met our monster hunting squad.”
Cao Zechun waved his staff again. Streaks of green energy like green dragons flew toward his companions.
Their astrolabes increased by half of their sizes, and a formation that spanned several thousand meters appeared beneath their feet. It was a formation that boost one’s strength. Based on the range of the formation, the effect was equivalent to adding another Birth Chart.
Following that, energy swords flew out from all directions.
Lu Zhou manifested his astrolabe and blocked the attacks.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The astrolabe actually caved in.
Lu Zhou retreated.
Cao Zechun shot a strange beam of light that landed on Lu Zhou’s astrolabe. His astrolabe with nine Birth Charts was revealed immediately.
“I’ve overestimated you. Who gave you the courage to oppose us?!” Cao Zechun’s confidence soared immediately.
“He’s just a Nine Chart cultivator! He can really f*cking act! Cripple him!”
Meanwhile, Ye Wusheng, who was hidden in the crowd, was filled with doubts. He had clearly seen Lu Zhou defeating Lu Wu. How could he only have nine Birth Charts?
Under the assault of countless energy swords, Lu Zhou was pushed back.
After Lu Wu swallowed its life heart, its abdomen undulated for a moment. Then, it said, “Let’s go.”
“Master?” Ye Tianxin called out when she saw her master being pressured. She flew off Cheng Huang’s back.
Then, Cheng Huang let out a weak but clear cry.
The long and continuous cry rolled out waves, sweeping through everyone. It caused their ears to buzz and their minds to go blank. As a result, they stood in a daze, rooted to their spots.
Upon seeing this, Cao Zechun released another wave of energy, pushing the soundwave back.
With this, the members of the monster hunting squad regained their senses.
“Don’t let go of Cheng Huang either.”
“Understood.”
Fu Ruandong flew into the air again. Her eyes burned with killing intent. Although she had been healed by Cao Zechun’s light circle, her heart had been overtaken by anger and hatred. She said frostily, “How dare you destroy my Birth Chart! I’ll make sure you won’t live to see the sunrise tomorrow!”
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
A sky full of energy arrows rained down.
Cheng Huang rushed backward immediately.
Lu Zhou continued holding the astrolabe in front of him. He knew this could not go on. After he channeled the supreme mystic power into the astrolabe, he glanced at Lu Wu.
Lu Wu was seriously injured earlier on top of its previous injuries. It would take some time for its life heart to assimilate with its body again as well.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Although Lu Zhou’s astrolabe was indestructible, the huge impact still pushed him back.
Cao Zechun said, “Brothers, do your best!”
“Yes, Boss!”
“The astrolabe with nine Birth Charts actually contains the power of heaven and earth! Alas, it’s still too weak. Beat him up! Beat him to death!”
An even more violent attack fell. It was so oppressive that one could hardly breathe.
Lu Zhou’s feet sank into the ground. He could not even see the sky now due to the relentless attacks falling from above.
“He’s tenacious, but I like it!”
“I’ve never met such a tough Nine Chart cultivator. Are golden lotus cultivators all so tough? That kid with the spear earlier was tough as well!”
The monster hunting squad did not care if their opponents were tough. After all, with a super nurse for a captain, they could continue to fight for ten days to half a month. Even a Venerable Master would find them troublesome to deal with.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Lu Wu tilted its head to the side and asked in a deep voice, “Lu… Tiantong… what… are you… doing?”
Lu Zhou did not have time for Lu Wu now.
Creak!
Lu Zhou’s astrolabe caved in.
“He’s about to die! Come on! Attack with all your might!”
At this time, Fu Ruandong said, “Leave him to me!”
A huge energy arrow was aimed at Lu Zhou’s astrolabe.
Fu Ruandong smiled after she licked the blood off the corners of her lips. “I’ve been waiting for this moment…”
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Lu Wu exhaled before it shook its head and said, “… Take good care… of Young Master… for me…”
Lu Zhou stomped on the ground and crushed the Supreme Mystic Card in his hand. He said in a deep voice, “No, you take care of them for me…”
In just a blink of an eye, Lu Zhou was brimming with supreme mystic power. The dent on the astrolabe was no longer there, and it blocked thousands upon thousands of energy swords and energy sabers.
“Hold him down! Don’t let him get up!” Xu Zhongxia shouted.
Lu Zhou silently recited the mantra for the Heavenly Writing’s power of muting.
To gain the power of muting so that Samadhi will manifest in the body and radiate into the surroundings like light yet being still in Samadhi.
When the blue lotus bloomed under Lu Zhou’s feet, all the attacks were deflected immediately.
“Scram!” The soundwave from the Heavenly Writing’s power of speech rolled out in all directions. The three mountains that had looked like a hornet’s nest earlier were leveled by the soundwave.
Then, Lu Zhou recited the mantra for the Heavenly Writing’s power of past lives.
The Heavenly Writing Powers rolled out, bringing with them destruction wherever they went.
When the energy swept toward Fu Ruandong, who was standing on her bow, she was petrified on the spot. Her eyes widened in shock. ‘How did he become so strong?!’
Lu Zhou said indifferently, “You think you’re qualified to fight with me with your inferior archery skills?”
Lu Zhou raised his hand before bringing it down again, showing no mercy.
The Buddhist’ Abandon Wisdom boosted with the supreme mystic power smacked down from the sky.
Bang!
Just like that, Fu Ruandong lost another Birth Chart.
“Please show mercy!” Fu Ruandong cried out. Alas, it was useless. She felt as though her chest had been struck by lightning, and she dropped from the sky as she vomited blood.
Cao Zechun was dumbstruck. Just as he was about to use his healing technique again…
Lu Zhou brought his hand down again.
Ten blue Abandon Wisdoms lined up neatly in a row and shot toward Fu Ruandong.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Cao Zechun, Xu Zhongxia, and Yu Wenqiu. “…”
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
On the contrary, Lu Wu’s expression was indifferent as though it was not surprised by Lu Zhou’s strength at all. Instead, it seemed to be criticizing Lu Zhou for showing as it said, “Boring.”
All the members of the monster hunting squad manifested their astrolabes and activated their protective energy in unison.
“Spread out!” Cao Zechun shouted.
Lu Zhou’s eyes glowed blue. Apart from the power of sight, he used the power of hearing and the power of smell as well.
Soon enough, Lu Zhou flashed and arrived in front of Cao Zechun. “No one can hide from my attacks.”
Then, the blue Daoist’s Nine Cuts Hand Seal appeared one after another.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The palm seals landed on Cao Zechun’s astrolabe one after another. When the last palm seal fell, the astrolabe was already on the verge of breaking.
“Venerable Master?!” Cao Zechun’s eyes widened in fear and shock as he spat out blood. “No, Venerable Masters aren’t like that. This is…”
Cao Zechun wanted to put his astrolabe away, but before he could do so, Lu Zhou’s attacks that were filled to the brim with supreme mystic power fell from the sky.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Cao Zechun was smashed to the ground with no chance to fight back. He lay on his back, embedded into a human-shaped pit. He looked up at the sky with eyes brimming with fear and disbelief. His eyes reflected the rolling clouds and the blue lotus. Even if he had the ability to heal even the most fatal injuries, he could not restore his Birth Chart. He had lost so much by opposing that person in the sky.
Lu Zhou did not care about his increasing merit points. He continued to use his Heavenly Writing Powers and other skills without restraint, boosting them with his supreme mystic power. He moved so fast that the entire sky was filled with blue afterimages. Every time he stopped, he would launch ten palm seals. There was not a single person hovering in the sky at all.
However, Lu Zhou did not stop.
