Chapter 903 - Absolute Zero Degree
Chapter 903: Absolute Zero Degree
Yi Yao was strong enough to dominate the red lotus domain, but based on what Lu Zhou could see previously, Yi Yao was a cautious person. Without sufficient confidence, how could Yi Yao come to provoke him again?
Therefore, Lu Zhou was also very cautious. If he could use the supreme mystic power, he would use it. He treated Yi Yao like an enemy who had eight Birth Charts.
Yi Yao grunted in pain as blood trickled out of the corner of his mouth down his face that was like tree bark. The loss of another Birth Chart caused him to be wary of the old man. He wanted to dismiss it as him being careless, but he had already fought this old man once in the Sky Wheel Rift Valley. However, the reality was the old man seemed to be much stronger than he had imagined. He could not figure it out nor could he understand it. The old man only had three Birth Charts, but the old man’s strength was even more domineering than those with six Birth Charts. It was unreasonable and illogical.
Yi Yao spat out another mouthful of blood. He had officially fallen and became a Three Chart Thousand Realms Whirling cultivator.
Yi Yao lay on the ground. He did not need to lift his head to see the old man standing on the palace wall.
‘Courage? Confidence?’ Yi Yao chuckled. “Over all these years, I’ve never been in such a sorry state like today. You’re the first to cause this, and you’ll be the last as well. You want to know where my courage comes from? I’ll show you then!”
Then, Yi Yao stroked the ground with one hand before he suddenly stood up like a zombie.
Lu Zhou shook his head and said disapprovingly, “You’ve never been in such a sorry state because you didn’t meet before. Those who oppose me always end up in a sorry state. You’re not the first, and you won’t be the last. I don’t care where your courage came from; you’ll die today!”
Yi Yao raised his head and looked at Lu Zhou with eyes that brimmed with killing intent. His breathing quickened, and his chest heaved heavily up and down. After wiping the blood off his face, he said through gritted teeth, “Come on then!”
Whoosh!
Yi Yao pushed his hand out. A chain glowing with red light flew out like a dragon in the air. Wrapped in Primal Wi, it danced in the air and snaked up the palace wall. The formation on the wall instinctively tried to repel the chain, causing thunderous explosions to ring in the air.
Just as the chain was about to reach Lu Zhou, he waved his arm.
An energy sword shot out of his palm immediately.
Bang!
Sparks flew as the thunderous collision of energies rang in the air.
Bang!
The red chain had just formed a web when it collided with Unnamed in Lu Zhou’s hand.
Lu Zhou nodded slightly in satisfaction. Unnamed had yet to disappoint him.
The chain fell lifelessly to the ground.
“Huh?” Yi Yao was stunned by this.
Clank!
The chain fell loudly to the ground.
Yi Yao saw his chain had been neatly cut into two.
“So, you have a flood-grade weapon.” Yi Yao did not seem surprised by this.
There were no changes in Lu Zhou’s expression. ‘What nonsense! I have more than one weapon. In fact, I have a pile of weapons!’
Yi Yao looked at the broken chain on the ground. A desolate-grade weapon was destroyed just like that. In fact, he had a slight suspicion that the weapon in the old man’s hands was even stronger than flood-grade weapons.
The two opponents faced each other silently for a moment. In terms of cultivation, both of them seemed equal with three Birth Charts respectively.
However, those who were watching were not sure who would come out on top?
Even if Yi Yao only had three Birth Charts now, as someone who had five Birth Charts, how could not have tricks up his sleeve? Did the old man really think he was so stupid so provoke him without any means at all?
Lu Zhou continued to look down at Yi Yao from above. “What other means do you have? Go on and use all of them. I’ll accompany you until the end.”
Yi Yao inhaled deeply as though he had made up his mind. Then, he lifted his head and said, “Then I’ll let you see my true strength.”
In the next second, Yi Yao left afterimages on the spot where he stood as he drew level with Lu Zhou in the air.
“Hmm?” Lu Zhou could sense the slight change in Yi Yao’s aura. Moreover, Yi Yao’s speed was slightly faster than flashing. Even if it was just a little, it seemed like Yi Yao had become stronger.
Swoosh!
A strange light glinted in Yi Yao’s eyes, and his body radiated fighting spirit as he charged forward.
Lu Zhou moved his hand. A light shield that looked like curtains appeared in front of him immediately.
Bang!
Lu Zhou flew backward from the huge force.
At this moment, Yi Yao appeared soundlessly behind Lu Zhou.
“Dhyana Mudra.”
A golden halo appeared on Lu Zhou’s body.
Bang!
Yi Yao slashed at the golden halo with an energy sword until the Dhyana Mudra shattered.
Lu Zhou used his grand technique and flashed away.
Yi Yao’s voice rang in the air. “Too slow.”
Yi Yao appeared behind Lu Zhou again and brandished the energy sword.
To think Lu Zhou’s grand technique was a beat slower.
The Golden Buddha Body!
Bang!
As Lu Zhou attacked, he wondered how Yi Yao achieved this. He took this opportunity to understand the combat ability and strength of the Thousand Realms Whirling. His grand technique had improved by a level; it was not just a simple rise of his cultivation base.
Gold and black light flashed in the air from the golden and black Thousand Realms Whirling avatars clashing in the sky.
Lu Zhou found this very strange. Was this the extent of his strength?
Bang!
…
After an hour of fierce fighting, the palace wall that spanned north to south had long been destroyed by the palm seals that fell from time to time. If the battle was not high up in the sky, the palace wall would have completely collapsed a long time ago.
The members of the Evil Sky Pavilion, the palace experts, and the civil and military officials watched with stunned expressions on their faces.
Li Yunzheng said worriedly, “The black lotus cultivator has unleashed all his strength. I hope grandmaster will be okay…”
Si Wuya said with a smile, “Don’t worry. Look carefully. The black lotus cultivator’s movement is vicious and fast. He’s so fast that it’s hard to even catch a glimpse of his shadow. However, haven’t you noticed how your grandmaster always managed to activate his Golden Buddha Body at the right time and block the attack with his own?”
Li Yunzheng asked curiously, “Their avatars are of the same height now. It’s as you said, the black lotus cultivator can’t beat grandmaster. However, why is grandmaster prolonging the fight?”
“Continue to observe,” Si Wuya said, “We know too little about the black lotus domain. Only by knowing ourselves and our enemies will we be able to win a hundred battles.”
Si Wuya said, “We know too little about Black Lotus. Only by knowing ourselves and the enemy can we win a hundred battles.”
The people who heard Si Wuya’s words nodded in agreement.
“Those who are skilled are bold. Only those who have absolute strength would dare to fight in such a manner. It… It seems like Senior Lu is much stronger than we’ve imagined,” Wang Yun said in a voice filled with admiration.
Nie Qingyun stroked his chin and said, “There’s something I don’t understand. If that’s the case, why did Senior Lu use nine leaves during his fight with Ye Zhen? There was nothing worth observing about Ye Zhen, after all, so there’s no need for Senior Lu to drag the battle. At that time, if he had manifested his Thousand Realms Whirling avatar, he could kill Ye Zhen in the time it takes to brew a pot of tea.”
“Nevertheless, this is amazing,” Xia Changqiu said excitedly, “This explains how he killed Yu Chenshu with just one palm strike.”
“And the Great General of the North!”
“…”
Boom!
An explosion caught everyone’s attention.
Yi Yao no longer flashed around in a frenzy. He had come to a stop and looked at Lu Zhou who had been constantly defending against his attacks. “Do you think I’m unable to see what you’re doing?”
“Hmm?” Lu Zhou’s advances and retreats were measured. Every move he made was extremely appropriate and without flaws. How did Yi Yao know?
“This time, it’s your turn to be careless.” Yi Yao suddenly spread his arms.
The 400-foot black lotus avatar appeared and spun in the air. Soon after, a spot of light appeared in the center and grew brighter and brighter.
At the same time, the temperature within the radius of 1,000 meters began to drop sharply.
The cultivators with low cultivation bases watching the battle nearby were instantly frozen into popsicles.
Sharp icicles sprung up from the ground to midair.
Lu Zhou frowned slightly. It seemed like the earlier attacks were all a lead-up to this moment.
Yi Yao smiled.
Cracking noises rang in the air.
“Absolute Zero Degree.”
The black lotus released a terrifying cold energy, freezing all the energy and Primal Qi in the air and turning them into ice.
Lu Zhou struck with his palm using the supreme mystic power.
Boom!
Lu Zhou easily cleared an area around him. He struck again with his palm.
Boom!
Lu Zhou cleared another area again.
Upon seeing this, Yi Yao said confidently, “It’s useless… I prepared this especially for you.”
…
“Sea Spirit Pearl?” Si Wuya’s expression changed slightly.
“Teacher, what’s a Sea Spirit Pearl?”
“According to the ancient books about sea beasts, a Sea Spirit Pearl comes from the king of the sea beasts. The pearl is formed from the essence of the heavens, the earth, the sun, and the moon. Cultivators who have this in their possession can control the four seasons and boost their vitality energy, greatly increasing their combat strength. However, after using it, they would be greatly weakened for a period of time,” Si Wuya explained.
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
