Chapter 931 - True Speed
The blackguard said, "We don't want to start a war... Why do you have to gamble with their lives?"
'Ah?'
The thousands of cultivators retreated one after another.
Xuan Chengzi, Mo Xinglu, and Zeng Yan's expressions were extremely unsightly at this moment.
Lu Zhou shook his head and asked, "What does it have to do with me if they die or not?"
Xuan Chengzi, Mo Xinglu, and Zeng Yan. "..."
The trio felt as though they had fallen into a sea of despair. No matter who won or lost today, the three sects would not have a good ending.
What was going on? What sin did they commit that before they could even warm up the life hearts they obtained, the life hearts were snatched away and they were ruthlessly sent to hell.
Six blackguards.
Six Thousand Realms Whirling avatars.
These were enough to sweep through the golden lotus domain and the red lotus domain.
Fortunately, the internal strife in the Black Tower Council was serious. Otherwise, there would be a huge disaster.
The cultivators retreated more than a hundred meters, but it was of no use. In a battle between Thousand Realms Whirling experts, they were like ants walking among elephants. They felt like fish on a chopping board.
"You insist on making an enemy out of the Black Tower Council?" the blackguard continued to ask.
Lu Zhou said, "Why are you talking so much? You don't dare to recklessly kill because you're afraid of being punished, right?"
"Hmm?" The Black Guards were shocked.
"The three life hearts are already in my possession. Do you think six of you can snatch them from me?" Lu Zhou asked. Inwardly, he calculated his strength and six opponents' strengths.
His opponents had 26 Birth Charts collectively. If he used the Deadly Strike Cards, he would be able to destroy five Birth Charts. With the supreme mystic power, he should be able to destroy two Birth Palaces. However, there would still be three people left behind. Although he had some decent weapons, they did seem sufficient. The gap was rather big.
Lu Zhou decided to intimidate them first.
The blackguard said again, "The Black Tower Council is doing this to protect the red lotus domain."
"Life and death are determined by fate; wealth and honor are determined by heaven. Did you ask them if they want to be protected?" Lu Zhou pointed at the thousands of cultivators who had retreated to the sides.
"..."
The blackguard tried to explain again, "The red lotus domain isn't strong enough. Just a low-level Birth Chart Beast is enough to make all of them miserable. If they encounter a beast king…"
"Enough," Lu Zhou raised his hand and interjected, "I'm tired of hearing such words."
The blackguards looked at each other. It's their first time meeting, how could the old man be tired of listening to such words?
"Then don't blame us for being rude. Get into formation."
Four blackguards suddenly flashed and surrounded Lu Zhou.
The Black Guards did not give up. In their opinion, there were six of them so their chances of winning were very high.
In just a blink of an eye, they began to fight.
Everyone exclaimed in shock. The speed was too fast! Was this the might of Thousand Realms Whirling experts?
One of the blackguards raised the long halberd in his hand and brandished it around.
Lu Zhou frowned slightly. "I'll grant you your wish."
Lu Zhou seemed to have vanished into thin air before he appeared behind the blackguard standing in the east direction and struck with his palm.
As though he could sense the danger, the blackguard flashed away.
Alas, Lu Zhou seemed to have predicted his movement and moved to his back again at an even faster speed before striking with his palm again.
"Little Five!"
Lu Zhou's expression remained unchanged as five fingers shone with blue light.
Everyone born into the world had a name and race. They would eat, drink, experience happiness and sadness. Originating from nothing, from it comes everything. Living in samsara and learning from it. This was the power of past lives.
Bang!
Following that, Abandon Wisdom shot out and landed on the blackguard's back. As expected, he was sent flying back and spat out a mouthful of blood. However, surrounded by energy, the blood looked black.
"Ding! Destroyed one Birth Chart. Reward: 6,000 merit points."
Lu Zhou felt like the technique was not very suitable for destroying too many Birth Charts at once. The supreme mystic power was rather limited. Nevertheless, the palm seal perfectly displayed his might.
When Mo Xinglu saw the familiar blue light, she exclaimed in surprise, "It's him?!"
"Who?"
"The old senior who killed Yu Chenshu."
"It's him?!" Xuan Chengzi was shocked as well.
The person who killed Yu Chenshu only had ten leaves at that time. However, in less than a year, he now possessed the power to fight against six blackguards?
Meanwhile, the blackguard's expression was one of shock and disbelief after his Birth Chart was destroyed.
Upon seeing this, the two captains brandished their long halberds that were shrouded with black energy. The atmosphere seemed to turn gloomy in just an instant, and their aura seemed to have grown stronger.
At this time, the blackguard in the western direction manifested his avatar. The three Birth Charts on the black astrolabe shot out beams of light immediately.
Lu Zhou flashed and dodged the attacks. With the ability from the fourth Birth Chart, his speed was so fast that it seemed like he had disappeared into thin air.
"Where is he?"
"Be careful!"
In just a blink of an eye, Lu Zhou flashed to the back of the black Thousand Realms Whirling Avatar and grabbed it with one hand. His other hand shone with a blue light as he brought it down on the Birth Palace in the Lotus Seat.
Lu Zhou's speed was so fast that the blackguard trembled in fear.
"No!"
Lu Zhou's hand ruthlessly destroyed the Birth Palace.
The avatar was damaged in just an instant, and the three Birth Charts on the astrolabe went at the same time.
Although Lu Zhou did not obtain merit points by destroying the Birth Palace, it was convenient that he could destroy a few Birth Charts at once.
Without the avatar and the Birth Charts, the blackguard in front of Lu Zhou was a weak sheep.
The blackguards in the surroundings rushed to their comrades. "Retreat!"
A blue lotus appeared and bloomed under Lu Zhou's feet at this moment. The surging energy from the blue lotus swept toward the five blackguards.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The energy from the blue lotus cut through the mountain range in Eastern Forest Mountain like a hot knife through butter.
Now that the five blackguards had disappeared, Lu Zhou pressed his hand down on the chest of the blackguard whose Birth Palace he destroyed.
The blackguard fell from the sky and crashed heavily on the ground.
"Ding! Killed a target. Reward: 8,000 merit points. Domain bonus: 2,000 merit points."
Lu Zhou did not let down his guard. He looked around for the remaining blackguards, but they were nowhere to be seen? Did they use some secret technique to escape? Could it be an invisibility technique? From this battle, it could be seen that his combat techniques for the Thousand Realms Whirling were still insufficient. Yan Zhenluo's book only covered the basic common knowledge after all. There were no secret techniques.
He had used the supreme mystic power thrice now and depleted half of it. If he used all his trump cards, it was not impossible to kill all of them. However, he did not think it was worth it.
The power of hearing.
Blue energy lingered around Lu Zhou's ears. The range of his hearing spanned 1,000 meters in just an instant.
Every sound of the movement, breath, and heartbeat of those from the Seeking Heaven Sect, the True Kunlun Sect, and the Void Sect entered his ears.
Lu Zhou turned around and glanced at Xuan Chengzi and the others.
With just a glance, the trio immediately fell to their knees in the air.
"Old sir, please forgive us!"
Upon seeing this, thousands of people fell to the ground at the same time.
"Old sir, please forgive us."
At this moment…
Thump! Thump! Thump!
'The sound of heartbeats?'
Lu Zhou Lu Zhou's attention was not on them but on the north of the mountain range in the Eastern Forest Mountain. He recalled the blackguards seemed to have come from the north earlier. He flashed and traveled thousands of meters north in just a blink of an eye.
He hovered in the air and continued to listen.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
All of a sudden, the extremely faint sound of heartbeats stopped. The surroundings were terrifyingly quiet.
Lu Zhou placed one hand on his back as he said in a low voice, "Playing cat and mouse with me?"
Lu Zhou struck with his palm.
Boom!
A golden palm seal flew in the direction where he last heard the heartbeat and landed on a rock.
Four blackguards appeared immediately. They rushed toward the fifth blackguard who was hit by the palm seal before they escaped in a flash.
"Go!"
"Where are we going?!"
Lu Zhou chased after them at an even more exaggerated speed.
