When the black astrolabe shot up to the sky, Yue Qi vanished into thin air.
Lu Zhou turned around and flashed a thousand meters away. His hand seemed to be grabbing at the empty air. Soon enough, it looked as though Yue Qi was sending his neck to Lu Zhou’s hand when Yue Qi suddenly reappeared.
With the golden-bluish light from the Golden Buddha’s Body shining down on him, Yue Qi trembled as fear assaulted his heart. He pleaded, “I surrender, I surrender, I surrender! R-release…”
Crack!
Lu Zhou tightened his grip, breaking Yue Qi’s neck.
Yue Qi’s avatar appeared and disappeared again.
‘He didn’t die yet?!’
“I want to see how long you can hold on!” Lu Zhou said as he launched a huge palm seal over to Yue Qi.
Yue Qi used all his strength to dodge the attack. He manifested his clones and continued to dodge.
Lu Zhou manifested his clones as well. He always appeared at Yue Qi’s position in advance as though he could read Yue Qi’s mind.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Every palm strike landed on Yue Qi’s Dantian’s sea of Qi.
Buzz!
Finally, Yue Qi’s lotus was forced out by Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou seized the chance and brought Unnamed in the form of a sword out. He used all his divine power as he brought Unnamed down on Yue Qi’s Birth Palace. The force of the strike was enough to split heaven and earth.
Crack!
Yue Qi’s Birth Palace was cleaved into two.
The remaining force from the strike split the ground open, forming a deep ravine.
“Argh!” Yue Qi cried out in pain.
Primal Qi storm began to brew before it swept out in all directions, stirring up the Endless Ocean.
At this time, Lu Zhou flashed and landed at the entrance of the underground palace. He cast the power of past lives.
The Golden Buddha’s Body sat in front of the underground palace. It was nearly 2,000 feet tall, and it shone dazzlingly. It blocked the raging Primal Qi storm effortlessly. At the same time, it turned around to face Si Wuya, Huang Shijie, Li Jinyie, and Jiang Aijian, unleashing the power of healing. In just a blink of an eye, the four people’s injuries vanished without a trace.
Not long after, the Primal Qi storm died down, and the Golden Buddha’s Body vanished as well.
Lu Zhou cut off the multiple Heavenly Writing powers he had cast as well.
Silence descended on Mount Halcyon.
The entire place was in a mess. There were shards of ice, corpses, rubble, and debris on the hole-riddled ground. The underground palace was on the verge of collapse.
Lu Zhou walked over to Yue Qi who was lying on the ground. He stood at Yue Qi’s side and looked down at him coldly. He asked, “Well?”
Yue Qi’s eyes were almost lifeless. Fear had crushed his confidence; the destruction of his lotus had crushed his confidence. He had lost all means and strength to put up a fight. He had painstakingly cultivated for so many years and suffered hardships and pains to become a Saint, but now, everything was gone. He had only been a Saint for less than an hour. To a cultivator from the Great Void, this was a great humiliation. Finally, he said, “I submit.”
“It’s too late to submit,” Lu Zhou said tonelessly.
Yue Qi was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood.
‘Too late? Too late? Did this mean if I had submitted much earlier, he would’ve let me go?’
“No matter what you do, you’re no different from a dead person in my eyes.”
Yue Qi grunted as more blood trickled out from the corners of his mouth. He struggled as he said, “I… I’m from the… Great Void. I’m… G-great Void’s beast tamer…. I’m the Sacred Hall…”
Bang!
Lu Zhou stomped his feet, and Yue Qi’s voice came to an abrupt stop.
“How noisy.”
“Ding! Killed a target(lesser Saint). Reward: 50,000 merit points. Domain bonus: 5,000 merit points.”
Lu Zhou removed his foot and looked at Yue Qi’s lifeless body.
Huang Shijie and Li Jinyi stood outside the underground palace, shocked by what they had seen.
Lu Zhou brought out the Golden Taixu Mirror and shone it on Yue Qi’s corpse before he nodded and put the mirror away. Then, he brought out Unnamed in the form of a sword and stabbed Yue Qi’s corpse with it a few times before putting Unnamed away. When he saw the cylindrical object next to the corpse, he picked it up.
“Ding! Obtained the Hourglass of Time.”
Huang Shijie: “...”
Huang Shijie sighed inwardly. He thought that the rise of Lu Zhou’s cultivation base did not mean a change in Lu Zhou’s temperament. As expected, Lu Zhou was still the same Old Demon Ji.
Yang Jinhong was petrified. His legs trembled as he watched with eyes widened in fear. When Lu Zhou arrived in front of him, Yang Jinhong fell to the ground.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
From the sky in the distance, many cultivators flew over.
Lu Zhou looked up. This time, it was his people.
In the sky, Yu Zhenghai, Yu Shangrong, Qin Naihe, Yan Zhenluo, Lu Li, Little Yuan’er, Conch, and the others looked at the ground with wide eyes speechlessly.
Blood drenched the ground; not a single corpse was intact.
Little Yuan’er could not stand the gory sight and quickly covered her eyes.
Conch frowned and said in a low voice, “Senior brother, w-we seem… to be late.”
“Seems to be late? We’re definitely late,” Yu Zhenghai said, “Master is over there.”
Yu Shangrong said, “No, we’re not too late.”
“What do you mean?” Yu Zhenghai was puzzled.
Yu Shangrong flew on an energy sword toward Yang Jinhong and said, “Master, let me deal with him.”
Yang Jinhong seemed to have lost his mind. He would rather die than surrender. He tried to flee, but how could he flee when he was severely injured?
Lu Zhou shook his head as he watched the energy swords pierce Yang Jinhong’s body.
After everyone landed, Lu Zhou glanced at the carcasses of the sea beasts before he gave Kong Wen a look.
Kong Wen said excitedly, “I’ll get to work immediately!”
Lu Zhou walked toward the underground palace while the others quickly surrounded Huang Shijie and Li Jinyi.
“Island Master Huang, what happened?”
“T-this… This…” Huang Shijie gestured with his hands. He suddenly could not find the words to describe the magnificent battle. He felt the words he knew could not do justice to the battle he had witnessed.
“Tell me! I’m dying of anxiety,” Little Yuan’er urged impatiently.
Huang Shijie gave Little Yuan’er a thumbs-up and finally blurted out, “Your master is too f*cking awesome!”
“...”
‘Is that all you can say?’
Everyone looked at each other. Was there a need to tell them something they already knew?
At this time, Li Jinyi stepped up and said, “Senior Ji appeared and defeated a powerful enemy. To be honest, the battle is beyond my understanding. Please forgive me for not being able to describe it.”
“What a pity.”
…
In the underground palace.
Lu Zhou checked Si Wuya’s pulse and sensed the changes in his body. He frowned before he cut Jiang Aijian’s wrist.
At this time, everyone walked in.
Huang Shijie and Li Jinyi sighed and lowered their heads.
Lu Zhou checked Si Wuya’s pulse again. After a while, he shook his head and said, “How can this be?”
“Master, what happened to Seventh Senior Brother?” Little Yuan’er asked.
Lu Zhou raised his hand. When he raised it, there was an obvious tremble!
