Lu Zhou looked at Duanmu Dian, puzzled. âScheme against you?â
Duanmu Dian said a little angrily, âHow dare you go against the Great Void? No wonder they told me to be careful and even sent more people out to protect the Pillars of Destruction! No, no, no, you have to follow me back to see the Hall Master today. This way, you have a chance of saving your life!â
In Duanmn Dianâs eyes, the Great Void was like an elephant, and the nine domains were like ants. In the past, when they were both invited to the Great Void, they had a bright future ahead of them. However, Lu Tiantong was rebellious and unruly so things were not easy for him.
Lu Zhou frowned as he looked at Duanmu Dian. âYouâre really as loyal as a dog.â
Upon hearing this, Duanmu Dian said angrily, âAre you scolding me?â
âSo what if I scolded you?â Lu Zhou scoffed lightly as he placed his hands on his back and said, âThe Great Void claims to maintain the balance of the world and peace in the nine domains. However, have they ever asked for the opinion of the people from the nine domains?â
âThisâŠâ Duanmu Dian was rendered speechless by these words.
Lu Zhou continued to say, âEver since the imbalance began, the people have been suffering, Fierce beasts preyed on humans everywhere. Is this what the Great Voidâs idea of maintaining peace is?â
Lu Zhou did not have any ideas of becoming the worldâs savior nor did he think he was particularly kind. However, he was greatly displeased by the Great Voidâs actions.
Duanmu Dian seemed surprised. âIs that so?â
Ye Tianxin said, âSenior, youâve been guarding Dunzhangâs Pillar of Destruction for a long time so youâre not aware of this. If you donât believe my master, you can go to any of the domains and see for yourself.â
Lu Zhou saw that Duanmu Dian was lost in his thoughts and no longer wanted to waste time. They still had to go to the other Pillars of Destruction. Based on what he had seen, it did not seem realistic to expect help from Duanmu Dian. Hence, he said in a deep voice, âEveryone has their own aspirations, I
wonât force you.â
Then, Lu Zhou called out to his disciples, âLetâs go.â
âYes.â
âThe four disciples flew up, following Lu Zhou. They flew toward the place where the others from the Evil Sky Pavilion were waiting.
After flying for about 300 meters, Lu Zhou turned around and saw Duanmu Dian was still in a daze.
Yu Zhenghai asked, puzzled, âMaster, why didnât you mention Third Junior Brother?â
No matter what, Duanmu Sheng was Duanmu Dianâs descendant, after all. Perhaps, Duanmu Dian might be willing to help them considering his relationship with Duanmu Sheng.
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, âThe time is not ripe yet.â
Lu Zhou had not completely figured out the situation between Lu Tiantong and Duanmu Dian. Something might go wrong if Duanmu Dian were to meet Duanmu Sheng. In any case, the most important thing now was to let the Pillars of Destruction recognize his disciples.
Just as they were about to fly again, Duanmu Dian called out, âWait!â
Lu Zhou frowned. He turned around and saw Duanmu Dian flying toward them at lightning speed. He asked, puzzled, âWhat do you want?â
Duanmu Dian raised his voice and said with a chuckle, âI havenât won yet so how can you just leave?â
âHuh?â
Duanmu Dian laughed. âLu Tiantong, Iâll let you have a taste of being bullied today!â
Then, Duanmu Dian raised his hand and sent a black palm seal toward Lu Zhou.
In the center of the black palm seal, a bolt of lightning struck at Lu Zhou. Its force seemed as though it could rip the very fabric of space. There was no doubt this was the power of a Great Saint.
Lu Zhou mobilized the divine power and launched a palm seal of his own.
Boom!
âAn energy seal rippled out from the collision.
Duanmu Dianâs eyes were filled with excitement as he pushed his hand out again. A buzzing noise rang in the air as when his hand burst forth with energy. His fighting spirit was thoroughly stimulated at this moment.
âAmazing! Youâre very strong, but youâre not as overbearing as you used to be!â
Then, Duanmu Dian pushed Lu Zhou and flew five kilometers away in just a blink of an eye.
The four disciples hurriedly followed after the duo, surprised by the sudden development.
Lu Zhou frowned slightly as he asked, âDo you want to beat me so badly?â
âOf course!â Duanmu Dian grinned. âIs too much just for me to beat you once?â
Lu Zhou maintained the use of his divine power. Fortunately, his blue avatar already had three Birth Charts. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to keep up with this level of consumption.
âYouâre a Great Saint. You shouldnât bully the weak. Even if you win, the victory wonât mean anything since the fight isnât fair,â Lu Zhou said. He did not want to spar with Duanmu Dian. All his item cards were deadly, after all. If he did not use his item cards, it would be impossible for him to defeat a Great
Saint.
Duanmu Dian laughed before he said, âOh, why didnât you say this back then? Old Lu, you always said that thereâs no such thing as fairness in the cultivation world! Again!â
Duanmu Dian increased the strength of his attack.
A rumbling noise rang in the air as a surging power burst forth from Duanmu Dianâs hand again.
Boom!
Lu Zhou flashed back. He used the Concealment Card to hide his divine power before he mobilized more of his divine power around his body. With that, his entire body glowed with a golden light. Coupled with the divine mark robe, he successfully blocked the attack.
âHm?â Duanmu Dian looked at Lu Zhou suspiciously. âYouâre not affected by the attack at all?â
Lu Zhou said, âIf this is all you have, youâre still far from being able to defeat me.â
Lu Zhou joined his palms together and closed his eyes. His body was shrouded with the divine power as he chanted the mantra for the power of infinite deduction.
Images appeared in Lu Zhouâs mind one after another. They were all possibilities of where Duanmu Dian might reappear. When the images finally stopped, he suddenly pushed his hand out toward an empty spot and released the Fiend Monkâs Hand seal.
Boom!
Duanmu Dian reappeared in the spot when Lu Zhou had released the palm seal, but he managed to dodge the palm seal by manipulating the fabric of space. He asked incredulously, âYou managed to guess my position?â
âGuess?â
âThereâs no way you couldâve found my position unless youâre making a wild guess,â Duanmu Dian said.
âYou can continue trying then,â Lu Zhou said.
âAlright!â Duanmu Dian, who was unconvinced, vanished into thin air again, causing the space to ripple.
Lu Zhou repeated the same trick. After two breaths, he struck at another empty spot.
When Duanmu Dian reappeared, he saw the palm seal flying toward him. He exclaimed, âSo accurate? This is strange!â
Whoosh!
Duanmu Dian vanished into thin air again, avoiding Lu Zhouâs palm seal.
Soon after, Lu Zhou released a palm seal to his left. The palm seal barely contained any power; it was just to show Duanmu Dian he knew where he was.
As expected, Duanmu Dian appeared and saw the palm seal heading his way again. Then, he vanished again to avoid the palm seal. Although the palm seal would not even leave a scratch on him, he refused to let the palm seal touch him. Otherwise, it would be really embarrassing.
Following that, Duanmu Dian kept appearing and disappearing, leaving afterimages in his wake. Alas, no matter where he appeared, Lu Zhou would accurately guess his location before he even appeared.
After five consecutive attempts, Duanmu Dian stopped moving. He looked at Lu Zhou in surprise as he asked, âYouâve comprehended the greater law of space?â
âThe greater law of space?â Lu Zhou asked in confusion.
âThe laws come from the power of the Dao. The more profound your comprehension of the law is, the greater the law will be. Since you can accurately predict my locations, you must have comprehended the greater law of space,â Duanmu Dian explained. Then, he shook his head and said, âHowever, you
have to be a Dao Saint at least to be able to use the greater law of space.â
âIhave to be a Dao Saint at least?â
âThe power of the Dao comprehended by Venerable Masters is but a drop of water in the ocean. The power of the Dao of Saints is naturally stronger than Venerable Masters. As for Dao Saints or those who are stronger, their powers of the Dao are naturally stronger, and the laws they comprehended at that
level are called greater laws. Itâs said only Great Dao Saints can comprehend more than three greater laws. Hey, Old Lu, donât tell you were bored so you pretend to be weak to trick me!â
âIdidnât expect that after so many years, youâre still so overbearing! Not only that, but youâve even become so despicable!â Duanmu Dian said angrily, âAlright. I really wanted to experience the greater law once!â
Lu Zhou was truly speechless.
âFrom the beginning until now, I didnât say anything at all. How can you unilaterally blame me for everythingâ
Whoosh!
Duanmu Dian flashed, leaving afterimages in the sky.
Lu Zhou used the power of infinite deduction again. However, this time, he discovered he could not deduce where Duanmu Dian was going to reappear next. He found this rather strange. However, time did not allow him to think too much. When he sensed a powerful aura approaching, he mobilized his
divine power.
âGolden Buddhaâs Body!â
Buzz!
âWith Lu Zhou in the center, the Golden Buddhaâs Body grew swiftly.
Afterimages continued to appear in the sky as Duanmu Dian pounced on the Golden Buddhaâs Body. When he discovered his attacks were useless, he flipped and flew 100 meters back before he looked at the Golden Buddhaâs Body in shock and asked, âWhat technique is this? What a powerful defense!â
Lu Zhou put away his Golden Buddhaâs Body and looked at Duanmu Dian.
Duanmu Dian looked at Lu Zhou with a complex expression as he said, âOld Lu, when did you cultivate the golden lotus?â
âWhy canât I cultivate the golden lotus?â Lu Zhou asked.
âWe were both black lotus cultivators,â Duanmu Dian said. After thinking about it for a moment, he added, âMoreover, at that time, you were much darker than I was
Duanmu Dian asked again, âHow did you manage to assimilate even after entering the Thousand Realms Whirling stage?â
âItâs a secret,â Lu Zhou replied with a straight face.
âAfter I left the black lotus domain for the purple lotus domain, I heard you went to the Unknown Land in search of the Great Dao?â Duanmu Dian asked.
âIdonât remember.â
âTheard that when you returned, you even created the Nine Twists Illusory Formation and left your cultivation experience in there, right?â Duanmu Dian asked.
âWhy do you ask if you already know?â Lu Zhou asked curiously.
âVery good, very good. I didnât expect to still be inferior to you even after I became a Great Saint,â Duanmu Dian said listlessly as he shook his head.
âTe already said youâre still far from it even if youâve become a Great Saint,â Lu Zhou said. He was not being pretentious. His item cards and treasures were all deadly. If it were not for Duanmu Dianâs special identity, how could Duanmu Dian still stand and speak? If it were someone else, they would have
long fallen.
Duanmu Dian sighed and no longer said anything.
At this moment.
Figures rushed over from afar. They were the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion. When they saw the intense battle from afar, they could no longer hold back and rushed over.
âWhich fool dares to make a move against my master?â
The Overlord Spear pierced through the sky toward Duanmu Dian.
Duanmu Dian frowned as he looked at the golden spear flying toward him. He flicked his sleeve.
Bang!
The Overlord Spear was repelled and fell harmlessly to the ground.
âHow dare you!â Duanmu Dian said in a deep voice.
Duanmu Sheng flew toward the Overlord Spear. Then, he looked up at Lu Zhou and asked, âMaster, are you alright?â
Lu Zhou: â..â
âWhat must happen has happened at lastâŠâ
Lu Zhou nodded to show that he was fine.
Duanmu Dian frowned and complained to Lu Zhou, âOld Lu, I can understand your desire to preach and teach, but you have to be more discerning when choosing disciples.â
Lu Zhou:
Duanmu Sheng raised his hand, and the Overlord Spear flew into his hand. Then, he pointed the spear at Duanmu Dian and scolded, âOld bast*rd! How dare you scold me?â
âSo what if I scold you?â
âWell, I can tolerate it!â
Swoosh!
Duanmu Sheng flew over with his Overlord Spear in hand. He brandished his spear, launching tens of thousands of energy spears at Duanmu Dian.
âThe wind whistled loudly in the air as Duanmu Dian leisurely dodged the energy spears. Then, he asked with a smile, âIs this all you got? Itâs not different from playing with a child.â
Duanmu Sheng was someone with a one-track mind. Upon hearing these words, he swung his spear angrily and attacked even more rapidly.
Duanmu Dian said, âWell, this time, youâre a little better. You have the might of a Venerable Master.â
Bang!
Duanmu Dian pushed his hand out. His absolute power sent Duanmu Sheng flying back immediately.
Duanmu Dian smiled and said, âYouâre still far from enough. Old Lu, your taste is really bad!â
Lu Zhou: â???â
Yu Zhenghai said, âThis is my Third Junior Brother. Heâs actually not bad. Youâll understand after listening to my explanation.â
âThereâs no need to explain,â Duanmu Dian said, refusing to listen, â No matter what, heâs bad!â
âItâs bad enough that I canât bully your master, if I canât even bully you, how am I going to survive in the future as a Great Saint?
Duanmu Dian had already thought things through. No matter how much the others praised that brat, he was determined to step on that brat.
Yu Zhenghai was speechless.
At this time, Duanmu Sheng attacked again. He held the Overlord Spear with both hands as the purple dragons burst forth from his arms, swimming left and right. With this, his strength increased by several times.
Duanmu Dian exclaimed in surprise, âCorrosive energy?!â
âOld bast*rd, even if Iâm weak now, Iâm still 100 times better than you!â
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The purple dragons spun around swiftly as energy spears sailed in the air.
Duanmu Dian did not allow Duanmu Sheng to have his way. He pushed both his hands out. âImmovable Mountain!â
Faced with absolute power, the purple dragons and energy spears vanished when they collided with the palm seal.
At this moment, Lu Zhou finally said, âHeâs a Great Saint.â
Duanmu Sheng was shocked and hurriedly flew back. No matter how rash he was, he was still aware of the difference in their strengths.
At this moment, a huge head descended from the sky. âYoung Master.â
Duanmu Sheng did not raise his head. He only pointed at Duanmu Dian and said, âLu Wu, freeze him!â
Lu Wu raised its head. Its eyes lit up as bright as the sun, moon, and stars and its ears pricked up when he saw Duanmu Dian. âMaster?â
Duanmu Dian:
âLu Wu, what are you doing?â Duanmu Sheng frowned.
Lu Wu leaped forward and rushed toward Duanmu Dian.
Lu Wu exclaimed in surprise, âLu Wu?!â
