Chapter 826: Desolate-grade Confinement Seal
Lu Zhou flew toward the main peak.
Nie Qingyun, Meng Changdong, and a few others followed closely behind Lu Zhou.
...
On the cloud platform.
Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai turned to look at Li Yunzheng at the same time.
Li Yunzheng was unnerved by the duo’s gaze.
After appraising Li Yunzheng for a long time, Yu Zhenghai finally asked, “Second Junior Brother, do you think that it’s possible that master made a mistake? Every one of our fellow disciples is a genius or an elite. What does master see in him?”
Yu Shangrong shook his head. “We can never hope to fathom master’s thoughts.”
“Still, he’s a young puppet emperor who doesn’t even know how to cultivate...” Yu Zhenghai looked at Li Yunzheng with a slightly disdainful gaze.
After witnessing the duo’s strength earlier, Li Yunzheng was thoroughly impressed. He mustered his courage and said, “Senior uncles... I... I’m actually not that weak...”
Yu Zhenghai nodded, satisfied. Then, he said with a smile, “Good, good. You sound like me when I was your age. Make sure to study well and don’t embarrass the Evil Sky Pavilion.”
Yu Shangrong shook his head and walked toward the boxes. Rather than listening to his senior brother brag, he was more interested in looking at the boxes’ contents.
Li Yunzheng could tell it was easier to talk to Yu Zhenghai. Yu Shangrong was not as approachable. Hence, he carefully walked to Yu Zhenghai’s side and asked, “Eldest Senior Uncle, can you tell me what kind of person my master is? Is my master a he or a she? Is she beautiful? What’s she skilled in?”
When Yu Zhenghai heard this, he laughed and said, “Beautiful?”
“...”
Yu Zhenghai said, “Your master’s name is Si Wuya. He’s the seventh disciple of the Evil Sky Pavilion. He has the greatest vision and wisdom among all of us, and he has a keen eye. Seventh Junior Brother once said that my Jasper Saber is the best in the world...” When he mentioned the Jasper Saber, he glanced at Yu Shangrong who was standing nearby. As he had expected, a frown could be seen on Yu Shangrong’s face.
After a moment, Yu Zhenghai said in a gruff voice, “Naturally, we’re not taking your grandmaster into account.”
“Is my master that great?” Li Yunzheng was motivated when he heard Yu Zhenghai’s description of Si Wuya.
Yu Zhenghai continued to say, “Your master is well-read and is knowledgeable in astrology and geology. When you meet him, don’t brag about how knowledgeable you are.”
“I understand. Then, what’s my master’s cultivation base?” Li Yunzheng asked eagerly.
“Well, let’s not talk about that. Your master doesn’t rely on his cultivation base,” Yu Zhenghai said.
“...”
Meanwhile, Yu Shangrong ignored the two of them. He went through the contents of the boxes with Xia Changqiu. When he saw a box of purple rocks, he asked in confusion, “Monastery Master Xia, what are these?”
Xia Changqiu said, “Purple crystals. This is one of the most important materials to reforge a weapon. Oh, that’s right! With these, there’s hope for your Longevity Sword, Mister Second!”
Something stirred in Yu Shangrong’s heart when he heard these words. “What else is needed apart from purple crystals?”
“We’ll need more rocks, but those aren’t a problem. They can be easily found. We’ll have to completely melt the Longevity Sword to reforge it. Hence, we need a furnace that can withstand the high temperatures of a desolate-grade weapon. We’ll also need a profound cultivation base to defend against the corrosion of the heat. It would be best if we have an elite cultivator who knows Formations to inscribe the runes when the sword is reforged. Alas, not many meet all these requirements,” Xia Changqiu said.
Yu Shangrong nodded, “Some matters can’t be forced. Let’s just go with the flow.”
“Mister Second, with your magnanimity, you’ll surely reach great heights on the sword path,” Xia Changqiu said.
“Thank you.”
...
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou and Nie Qingyun returned to the great hall on the main peak.
The others entered at the same time.
Yao Qingquan and Zhao Jianghe’s chests were stained with blood. They were lying on stretchers at this moment. When they saw Lu Zhou, they tried to lift their heads.
“S-senior Lu...”
“Senior Lu...”
Both of them tried to get up to greet Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou placed his hands on his back and said, “There’s no need for that.”
An expression of despair could be seen on Yao Qingquan’s face as he pleaded, “Senior Lu, you must save the temple master! The temple master has been taken away by Yu Chenshu!”
As soon as Yao Qinquan finished speaking, he launched into a coughing fit.
Wuwu hurried over at this moment and said, “I’ll heal you!”
She opened her small and tender hand, revealing a glowing red ball. Then, she pushed the red ball toward the two First Seats.
After being healed by Wuwu, the two First Seats seemed to be in a better condition. They were breathing much more easily now.
Seemingly dissatisfied with the effect, Wuwu said, “Again.”
Wuwu kept tossing out red balls and unleashed her techniques more than ten times.
In the end, Yao Qingquan and Zhao Jianghe did not seem to be in pain anymore, but Wuwu was flushed from the effort and depleting almost all her Primal Qi. She panted heavily.
“Miss Wuwu, don’t waste your energy. It’s karmic fire... Your healing can’t heal with injuries from karmic fire,” Yao Qingquan said.
Wuwu pouted and stomped her foot. A helpless expression could be seen on her face.
Ji Fengxing scratched his head awkwardly and said, “My junior sister doesn’t have a profound cultivation base. All she knows is this healing technique from the Forgetful Method. I apologize on her behalf.”
Lu Zhou stroked his beard as he nodded and said, “Forgetful Method? How many leaves does she have?”
Ji Fengxing immediately replied, “Two-leaf! Senior Lu, she’s a Two-leaf cultivator now! She’s the genius with the greatest potential in the Thousand Willow Monastery!”
“Not bad,” Lu Zhou said, “It’s rare for one to have such considerations.”
As Lu Zhou spoke, he raised his hands. Two blue lotuses appeared in his palms immediately.
The others watched with eyes shining with admiration.
The blue lotus radiated dense vitality. Those nearby could clearly feel the rich aura.
For a moment, everyone wondered where Lu Zhou came from? Was there, perhaps, a blue lotus domain?
The blue lotuses landed on Yao Qingquan and Zhao Jianghe.
When the blue lotuses blossomed, Lu Zhou felt the burning flames in their bodies. The flames were clearly stronger than those from Blood Sun Temple’s Fa Kong. Even its aura felt scorching hot.
“So this is the karmic fire of a Ten-leaf elite?” Lu Zhou was puzzled. He increased his input of extraordinary power.
Yao Qingquan and Zhao Jiangge felt a cooling sensation wash over them. The karmic fire that could not be extinguished seemed to be drowned out by a tide of water that was the blue lotuses. In just a few breaths, the karmic fire was completely extinguished. Both of them felt better instantly.
“Thank you, Senior Lu.”
“All I did was extinguish the karmic fire. You’ll have to recuperate on your own,” Lu Zhou said.
“Understood.”
“What happened? With Sikong Beichen’s skills, even if he can’t defeat Yu Chenshu, he still shouldn’t be captured,” Lu Zhou asked with his hands on his back.
Yao Qingquan sighed and said, “He had the Confinement Seal.”
“Confinement Seal?!”
The others were shocked by this piece of information.
Nie Qingyun said, “So, it’s the Confinement Seal! Senior Lu... This Confinement Seal isn’t something that should be taken lightly. Back then, the Sky Research Court had 100 genius researchers studying foreign worlds. In just a century, they created many weapons. This Confinement Seal is one of their best creations. It’s said to be the weapon that’s closest to the flood-grade in Great Tang! No wonder, no wonder!”
“What’s so special about this Confinement Seal?” Lu Zhou asked.
Nie Qingyun shook his head and said, “I’ve only heard about it. I don’t know what it looks like nor do I know its use.”
Since Yao Qingquan and Zhao Jianghe were the only ones who had seen it before, the others turned to look at the duo.
Yao Qingquan said, “That Confinement Seal is green and resembles a jade ruler’s seal. When it’s used, it’s as huge as a sky curtain. When it lands on the ground, it forms an impenetrable cage. It was exactly the Confinement Seal that trapped Temple Master Sikong.”
