Chapter 1766: Unnamed is Lost
Ever since communication channels were opened between the nine domains, the cultivators of Great Yan’s knowledge had grown. Their understanding of fierce beasts was also much better than before.
However, they really did not know what the dark mass in front of them was. They only felt that there was something hiding behind the dark rolling mass, constantly making low and deep noises.
Humans always feared the unknown, after all.
More and more cultivators began to gather. They formed a defensive wall in the distance.
The cultivators from the Luo, Tian, and Yun Sects stood at the front.
While they were still filled with anxieties, three streaks of light shot up. They looked up in surprise.
“It came from the Saint Sky Pavilion!”
All the cultivators wore expressions of reverence on their faces. Perhaps, they had long been used to the miraculous scenes from the Evil Sky Pavilion so no one said anything.
Buzz!
At this moment, a golden lotus bloomed in front of the streak of light in the lead. It was like the sun that illuminated the entire world.
The golden lotus was clearly different from the lotuses of Thousand Realm Whirling avatars. Twelve leaves surrounded it, and each leaf was 1,000 feet long. There was a column under the lotus that was equally as dazzling, and triangular patterns could be seen on it. A dazzling light shone from the seams of the triangles as well.
The supreme being’s lotus was more than enough to shock everyone.
“Is that a supreme being’s lotus?”
“Yes! It’s just like the ones in the books! This is my first time seeing it in real life!”
“The supreme lotus. I don’t even dare to dream about such a thing in my life…”
The dark mass drew closer and closer, bringing darkness with it.
The cultivators of Great Yan held their breaths, placing their hopes on the supreme being above them.
After a while, the dark mass came to a stop in front of the golden lotus.
Lu Zhou, Jie Jin’an, and Jiang Aijian stood on the lotus seat and looked at the humongous dark mass in front of them.
After a long silence, Lu Zhou asked, “Who are you?”
Lu Zhou’s voice reverberated thunderously in the sky, shocking the cultivators below.
There was no movement in the ‘dark clouds’, looking deceptively harmless like real clouds.
Nonetheless, the aura from within could not fool Lu Zhou and Jie Jin’an’s senses.
After a while, a low voice rang out haltingly, “Et… eternal… life…”
The words sound vague and incoherent as though the other party was speaking with its mouth full of water.
Jiang Aijian exclaimed, “You really came with ill intentions!”
Lu Zhou conjured up a gust of strong wind and blew the dark fog away. Soon enough, the head of the thing in the dark fog was revealed.
Kun was like a fish; it hid in the blue sea. Peng was like a bird; it drank, ate, and flew between heaven and earth.
The creature’s head was like a goshawk, and its eyes were like those of a falcon. Its teeth were like hooks and as big as mountains. Just its fur could cover a vast land.
This was only what they could see.
Jie Jin’an exclaimed in surprise, “Peng? But Isn’t this Kun from the eastern Endless Ocean?! Isn’t it a fish?”
“Kun can transform into Kun Peng, a bird that reigns over the sky and the earth…” Jie Jin’an said.
Lu Zhou looked at Kun Peng and said, “Isn’t it too late for you to ask me for the way to eternal life now?”
Kun Peng said again, “Eternal… life…”
It repeated these words over and over again.
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, “I haven’t found the way to eternal life. Moreover, I’ve already obtained the divine soul pearl I want. Even if I know the way, I wouldn’t reveal it to you.”
The dark fog began to surge. It seemed like Kun Peng was moving again, covering the sky of Great Yan.
Lu Zhou used the power of speech and said in a deep voice, “Impudent.”
As Lu Zhou stepped forward, Jie Jin’an and Jiang Aijian tactfully took a step back.
The golden lotus grew in size, covering the sky, as karmic fire began to burn around it.
In just a moment, half the sky was burning with golden flames while the other half was dark.
The golden flames slowly forced the darkness back.
Another low cry rang from within the dark fog. It seemed like Kun Peng was unwilling to fight. After retreating for a while, Kun Peng said haltingly, “Too… weak…”
Then, the dark fog rose higher up into the sky.
Kun Peng’s movement stirred up a fierce wind, wreaking havoc in Great Yan.
The cultivators quickly erected their protective energies to protect themselves against the fierce wind.
When the dark fog dispersed, everyone saw the largest pair of wings in history. Its wings looked as though they spanned thousands of miles, but they were probably much longer.
Kun Peng flapped its wings and rapidly flew toward the west.
Only when the sky returned to normal did Lu Zhou put away his golden lotus. He looked at the western sky thoughtfully.
At the same time, the cultivators of Great Yan sighed in relief.
Jie Jin’an moved to Lu Zhou’s side and said, “Kun Peng is going to the Great Void…”
“Why is it going to the Great Void?”
“Kun Peng doesn’t like the Great Void. It might be going there to cause trouble. The Great Void is going to collapse. If it causes trouble now, the consequences will be unimaginable…”
The Great Void was in chaos over its impending collapse. The only safe place for the cultivators there was the nine domains.
Lu Zhou nodded before he turned to Jiang Aijian and said, “Inform Old Seventh about this. Tell him to implement the plan.”
“Understood,” Jiang Aijian said.
…
Lu Zhou returned to the Evil Sky Pavilion.
Jie Jin’an became neighbors with Princess Mulberry.
Although Princes Mulberry preferred to be alone, it was not a big deal to have one or two neighbors. She would only be curious and chat with the other party before she gradually became familiar.
The first thing Lu Zhou did after returning to the eastern pavilion was to put Ying Long’s divine soul pearl in his blue lotus seat.
The entire process was quite smooth.
Fortunately, the divine soul pearl was of high quality. Otherwise, it would be extremely difficult to activate the final three Birth Charts. As for whether it could be completed within a month, Lu Zhou was not very sure as well.
“One month…” Lu Zhou muttered to himself as he pressed the Pillar of Impermanence into the ground and increased its speed to 10,000 times. With this speed, 10,000 months, which was equivalent to about 800 years, would pass in this one month.
Each Birth Chart would cost about 50,000 years of life so three Birth Charts would cost about 150,000 years of life.
Lu Zhou checked the system interface.
Remaining Life: 1,262,699 years
Reversal Card: 366,000
Upon seeing this, Lu Zhou felt confident about activating his final three Birth Charts.
Following that, Lu Zhou ordered that no one should disturb him in the coming month. If there were any matters to be dealt with, Yu Zhenghai, Si Wuya, the four elders, and the others could make the decision.
…
Inside the abyss at Dunzang.
After entering the abyss, Yin Long maintained its human form.
Like Lu Zhou, he felt as though he was in a galaxy of stars. After sensing the endless power, he revealed a satisfied expression and said, “It’s indeed a good place…”
Then, Yin Long sat cross-legged in the air, imitating the appearance of the Unholy One. Then, he brought to Heaven Suppressing Pestle out before he began to absorb the power of the abyss.
Lu Zhou cultivated the Heavenly Writing. He relied on the Heavenly Writing to transform andabsorb the power of the earth.
However, Ying Long could only rely on the Heaven Suppressing Pestle to absorb the power of the earth.
Their speed and nature were both different.
Following that, Ying Long brought Unnamed out. He played with it in his hand as he said with a smile, “Unholy One, I can’t believe you really left the world’s sharpest weapon with me…”
However, after thinking about how the divine soul pearl was equivalent to its life, he thought the exchange was fair and that he did not gain much out of the temporary exchange. With this, his excitement subsided by half.
After a moment, Ying Long grew curious. “How is it activated?”
Ying Long’s weapon was the Golden Amber Battle Axe. Although it was not a void-grade weapon, it was considered a top weapon among infinite-grade weapons. With the dragon clan’s abilities and the Golden Amber Battle Axe, his might was sometimes not inferior to that of a void-grade weapon.
The most unique characteristic of void-grade items was their ever-changing form. However, only in its true form would one be able to unleash its full might. In other forms, its might was perhaps only that of an infinite-grade weapon.
Ying Long had never seen a void-grade weapon before so he was naturally curious. He tried to mobilize his Primal Qi to activate Unnamed. Alas, there was no reaction from Unnamed at all. He tried again and again, but there was no response.
“How strange…”
For other weapons, even if they had already acknowledged their masters, others could still use them; it was just that they would not be able to unleash their full power.
For this reason, Ying Long found Unnamed extremely special.
Weapons like that usually possessed spirituality. In order to make it acknowledge a new master, one had to strip it of its spirituality first. However, since Unnamed could not even be activated by Primal Qi, it seemed an impossible task to remove its spirituality.
“Hmm, I don’t believe it…” Ying Long muttered to himself before he used all his might and mobilized the power of the laws.
As soon as the power shrouded Unnamed, it began to resist.
Swoosh!
An unexpected scene appeared…
Unnamed was sent flying! It spun before it plummeted down into the abyss.
“No!”
Ying Long hurriedly flew over, intending to retrieve Unnamed. Alas, the rebound force was too strong and sent him flying back.
Ying Long: “…”
‘It’s over! How am I going to explain this to him?! What’s going to happen to my divine soul pearl?!’
