Chapter 970: Who Will Be The Second Thousand Realms Whirling Expert in the Evil Sky Pavilion?
After recovering enough supreme mystic power, Lu Zhou used the power of sight from the Heavenly Writing Power to check in on Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong again.
At this moment, Yu Zhenghai sat against a damaged wall. He had already placed the life heart in his Birth Palace.
Upon seeing this, Lu Zhou nodded in satisfaction. At the same time, he could not help but wonder where Xiao Yunhe and the others went. The surroundings were dark and quiet so he could not see clearly.
The sky grew darker. In such a dark and damp environment, it would be difficult for most people to focus. However, it was nothing to Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong.
After a while, Lu Zhou saw Yu Shangrong holding a life heart and absorbing its energy.
“Hmm?” He noticed the life heart Yu Shangrong was holding was slightly bigger than the average life heart. It was clearly not Shan Gao’s life heart.
“Liang Qu? Xiao Yunhe is so kind as to give Liang Qu’s life heart to them? I took six fire spirit stones from him. Isn’t he angry? What happened?”
After a moment, Lu Zhou shifted his attention to Yu Zhenghai. When he noticed nothing seemed to be abnormal with Yu Zhenghai’s progress, he stopped observing Yu Zhenghai. If everything continued to progress the way it was progressing, Yu Zhenghai should be able to activate his Birth Chart tomorrow morning.
Following that, Lu Zhou cut off the Heavenly Writing Power.
He was puzzled. Previously, Yu Shangrong had absorbed the life heart’s energy, but there was no result. Why was Yu Shangrong absorbing the life heart’s energy again? It did not take long before a vague idea appeared in his mind.
Following that, he no longer dwelled on the matter. Instead, he began to meditate on the Heavenly Writing again to recover his supreme mystic power.
…
The next morning.
After recovering part of the supreme mystic power after meditating the entire night, Lu Zhou used the Heavenly Writing Power to observe Yu Zhenghai again before the sun rose.
He saw Yu Zhenghai looking at the Birth Palace on his golden lotus with an expression of delight. At this moment, the life heart had long been embedded into the zone in the Birth Palace.
Yu Zhenghai said excitedly, “Second Senior Brother, I’ve successfully activated my Birth Chart!” This time, he was not deliberately showing off; he was genuinely excited and delighted.
“Congratulations,” Yu Shangrong said.
Then, Yu Zhenghai saw the life heart, which was hovering in front of Yu Shangrong’s avatar, that still had a lot of energy left. He could not help but sigh inwardly. ‘It seems like nothing comes easy in this world. Second Junior Brother is not having an easy time absorbing the energy from the life heart.’
After a moment, Yu Zhenghai said, “I’ll try to form my Thousand Realms Whirling avatar now; you should continue to absorb the life heart’s energy.”
“Alright.”
The duo was both engrossed in their own tasks.
Yu Zhenghai manifested his avatar and began to form his Thousand Realms Whirling avatar. He was not worried since he had learned a lot of the Thousand Realms Whirling from Si Wuya.
Based on what he had learned, Yu Zhenghai moved his avatar higher in the air. However, as soon as he moved his avatar, his avatar disappeared.
“Hmm?”
Yu Zhenghai manifested his avatar again and repeated his action again. Alas, he failed again.
Repeat. Fail. Repeat. Fail.
Yu Zhenghai tried dozens of times, but they all ended in failure. He frowned as he muttered to himself, “Is it so difficult to form a Thousand Realms Whirling avatar?”
Similarly, Lu Zhou who was watching did not expect it to be so difficult for Yu Zhenghai to form the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar as well. After all, Yu Zhenghai had the Great Void Seed. Moreover, his physique and talent were far above most people. If even Yu Zhenghai failed to form the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar, how could the other cultivators have a hope of succeeding? As expected, the Thousand Realms Whirling stage was not something easy to achieve.
Lu Zhou did not have any problem with this since he directly obtained the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar by spending 500,000 merit points to buy it.
“What else is missing?” Lu Zhou wondered to himself as he continued to watch Yu Zhenghai. Yu Zhenghai’s cultivation base was high enough, and he had already activated his first Birth Chart. Could it be that Yu Zhenghai’s Dantian’s sea of Qi did not meet the requirements?
…
Meanwhile, outside of the southern pavilion.
Shen Xi and the other Nine-leaf cultivators looked in the direction of the eastern pavilion.
Nan Gongwei said in admiration, “I didn’t expect Pavilion Master to be so strong! Guardian Shen, you’re really amazing for blocking the Pavilion Master’s palm seal yesterday.”
Upon hearing this, an embarrassed expression appeared on Shen Xi’s face. “No, no, you’re overpraising me.”
After a moment, Nan Gongwei asked curiously, “What’s the difference between the golden lotus domain and the black lotus domain apart from the obvious?”
“In a way, there’s no difference. There are weak and strong cultivators everywhere since the beginning of time. Since the beginning of time, there have been many colors of lotuses. Whether it’s black, red, or golden, there’s always those who are weak and strong and those in high and low positions.”
“However, why is the black lotus domain so strong?”
Shen Xi replied, “The heaven and earth shackles are different in different domains. Up until now, no one has figured out the secrets of the heaven and earth shackles. I’m afraid I don’t have the answer to this question.”
Everyone sighed.
After a while, Nan Gongwei said again, “We’ve already severed our lotus, it may be impossible for us to ever activate our Birth Charts. If we don’t find a solution for this, in the future, wouldn’t it be…”
Shen Xi smiled faintly. “I once heard an elder from the council speak about the law of balance. What it means is that whatever the heavens take away, it’ll also compensate in another area to maintain the balance. Therefore, even if you no longer have a lotus, I’m sure you’ll be compensated in some other way.”
Nan Gongwei sighed. “Thank you for your kind words, Guardian Shen. The heavens have taken away so much of humans’ lifespans, I wonder if that was made up for in other ways…”
Everyone sighed as well upon hearing these words.
Shen Xi said, “Perhaps, one day when we find the Great Void, we’ll be able to solve this mystery.”
“That’s too far away in the future… Anyway, Guardian Shen, can you tell us what we need to pay attention to when forming the Thousand Realms Whirling avatars?” someone asked.
Shen Xi nodded. “In fact, it’s not difficult to activate one’s Birth Charts. What’s difficult is forming the Thousand Realms Whirling avatars.”
Buzz!
Shen Xi manifested his black Thousand Realms Whirling avatar. Its height was only 20 feet tall at this moment.
“Compared to the Hundred Tribulations Insight avatars, a Thousand Realms Whirling avatar has Birth Charts, Birth Palace, Birth disk, and the astrolabe,” Shen Xi said as he pointed at his avatar, “To form the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar, there are three things you must remember. First, you must never forget the sequence of the steps. The order can’t be messed up. Otherwise, you’ll definitely fail. Form the Birth Palace first, and the Birth Chart zones in the Birth Palace will appear, Then, after forming the astrolabe, the Birth disk will naturally follow. Second, the lengthy process to form the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar means that you need to have incredibly strong willpower and tolerance for pain. The avatar is like your body. Changing it will definitely cause a lot of pain. Third, without enough Primal Qi, it’d be impossible for you to maintain the process of forming the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar.”
Everyone nodded as they listened to Shen Xi.
“There are truly too many things we don’t know. Listening to Guardian Shen Xi is better than studying for ten years,” someone said after recording Shen Xi’s words.
At this moment, Pan Zhong walked in and said, “Guardian Shen Xi, the Pavilion Master has a task for you. He wants you to convey what you’ve just said to Mister First.”
Shen Xi was shocked. “The Pavilion Master… was listening to me?”
Pan Zhong smiled. “How would I know?”
“Alright, I’ll attend to this matter immediately.”
In fact, it was a coincidence that Lu Zhou heard Shen Xi with his power of hearing.
…
In the red lotus domain’s Southern Kingdom.
After trying for more than half a day, Yu Zhenghai still did not have any success. He wiped the sweat off his face and said, “When have I ever suffered so many setbacks? Is the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar really so difficult to form?”
After a moment, Yu Zhenghai turned to look at Yu Shangrong. Yu Shangrong had already absorbed half of the life heart’s energy. “Second Junior Brother, your avatar…”
Since Yu Shangrong was focused on his breathing to help his avatar absorb the energy, he did not notice the changes in his avatar. Upon hearing Yu Zhenghai’s words, he opened his eyes immediately. He saw the golden leaves, which were spinning around his avatar, seemed to have a hint of green in them.
Yu Shanggrong said, puzzled, “Xiao Yunhe said the absorption speed is slow, but that doesn’t seem to be the case…”
Yu Zhenghai replied confidently, “That’s because he has many Birth Charts. Due to the number of Birth Charts, the requirements are naturally higher so the absorption speed is slow. Since you haven’t even activated your Birth Chart, the requirements aren’t very high so your speed is faster.”
Yu Shangrong did not reply. Instead, he suddenly flew 50 meters south along with his avatar.
Yu Zhenghai. “???”
