Chapter 1524 The Arrival of the Unholy One (1)
The Qin Yuan did not continue to attack after she was struck by Lu Zhou’s Heavenly Writing power and repelled by his divine mark robe.
“It’s indeed the divine dragon’s tendon,” the Qin Yuan said as her red eyes returned to normal. She waved her hand, and the ten or so mutated bees that surrounded Lu Zhou flew back and returned to hover behind her.
Lu Zhou asked, puzzled, “Do you recognize this robe?”
Qin Yuan said, “The dragon tendon was from a nine-winged divine dragon. It was then refined and woven into this robe by a powerful cultivator. Am I right?”
Lu Zhou was inwardly surprised. How could he know the origin of this robe? He only knew the divine mark robe was extraordinary, but he did not know the specific details. However, outwardly, he looked at the Qin Yuan indifferently and said, “You have quite the discerning eye.”
The Qin Yuan imitated the gesture of humans and cupped her fists at Lu Zhou before she asked, “May I know how I should address you? I’m not familiar with human etiquette so please forgive me.”
Lu Zhou replied, “My surname is Lu.”
“Then, may I ask…”
Lu Zhou raised his hand and interjected, “I don’t have the time to waste with you. You go your own way, and I’ll go my own way. However, if you insist on making an enemy out of me, I’ll see it through until the end…”
Lu Zhou did not know why the Qin Yuan’s attitude had suddenly eased. Hence, he was rather skeptical and guarded against the possibility of the Qin Yuan’s sudden attack. After all, the Qin Yuan was comparable to a human supreme being. In comparison, he was just like an ant. If a conflict really could not be avoided, he would not hesitate to use his trump cards.
The Qin Yuan’s tone remained friendly, but her attitude was firm. She said, “I have a very important question.”
When Lu Zhou saw her determined gaze, he asked, “What is it?”
“What’s your relationship with the original owner of the robe?” the Qin Yuan asked.
Lu Zhou recalled the place where he had found the divine mark robe. He had found it in the sarcophagus in the Great Qin’s Emperor Emeritus’ mausoleum. To be precise, the divine mark robe was in a brocade box that was placed in the sarcophagus. Regardless, he had no connection with the original owner of the robe.
Based on the Qin Yuan’s question, it was clear that she was very concerned about this matter. Moreover, based on her tone and attitude, it was obvious she was wary of the original owner of the divine mark robe.
After thinking about it for a moment, Lu Zhou said confidently, “The divine mark robe belongs to me. Who dares to covet it?”
As expected, the Qin Yuan’s eyes widened in surprise. Perhaps, it was because she was not human, it looked as though her eyeballs were going to pop out of her eye sockets, making her look a little frightening.
At the same time, the ten mutated bees behind her began to flap their wings in unison.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
The ear-piercing sound was disturbing and unpleasant to the ears just like before.
Following that, colorful butterflies flew out from the forest one after another, and strange halos appeared in the sky. At the same time, the energy from the ancient formation in Fragrant Valley began to fluctuate.
Lu Zhou frowned slightly, sensing the threat from the ancient formation.
Suddenly, the colorful butterflies turned black and purple as they fluttered their wings in the air, leaving behind a cloud of mist. In just a blink of an eye, the mist shrouded the area within a radius of 1,000 feet.
Day turned into night, and time and space seemed to freeze.
As though boosted by the bee-like fierce beasts and the ancient formation, the black and purple butterflies flew in the air toward Lu Zhou like the Grim Reaper. Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Lu Zhou felt the pressure from the ancient formation and quickly mobilized his divine power. Following that, he manifested his Golden Buddha’s Body.
Buzz!
110 feet, 1,100, 10,000 feet; the Golden Buddha’s Body continued to grow.
Blue electric arcs flashed faintly and briefly on the Golden Buddha’s Body. It easily dispelled the attacks by the black and purple butterflies.
Lu Zhou nodded silently. He did not expect the other party’s illusory technique and attacks would be so easily dealt with by the Heavenly Writing’s power. Even so, he did not dare to let his guard down. After all, his opponent was an ancient Saint Slayer and could not be underestimated. He took advantage of this time and waved his hand.
“Hourglass of Time. Freeze.”
Blue electric arcs swept out immediately, freezing the other party.
“The power of teleportation.” Lu Zhou arrived in front of the Qin Yuan in just a blink of an eye before he said in a deep voice, “I guess you want to do things the hard way…”
Lu Zhou raised his hand and unleashed a palm seal. However, just as he was certain that his attack was going to land, a red light shot out from the Qin Yuan’s eyes as she spat out a ball of light.
Boom!
The Qin Yuan’s attacks collided with Lu Zhou’s palm seal.
Lu Zhou did not retreat but advanced. A Deadly Strike Card appeared in his hand. He knew he could not hold back at this time. He flew over, emitting a threatening aura that he gained from the Deadly Strike Card. He said, “As expected of an ancient Saint slayer, you managed to block my palm seal.” As Lu Zhou flew out, the divine power shrouded his entire body. At the same time, electric arcs flashed around his divine mark robe as his body was suffused with the Saint Light. Boosted by the divine power, his Saint Light was incredibly bright. It illuminated the entire sky above the Fragrant Valley, covering a hundred miles. The electric arcs made him look majestic and inviolable.
The Qin Yuan frowned, and its eyes were brimming with shock. She looked at the Hourglass of Time and the blue electric arcs before she turned to look at the other bee-like fierce beasts. Then, she cupped her hands at Lu Zhou and said, “Unholy One!”
Then, the Qin Yuan flashed back and withdrew her power. At the same time, the power from the ancient formation disappeared as well.
