Chapter 501 - World-destroying Palm

Who was playing the flute with such skills? The melody floated on the spring breeze and resonated across the City of Luoyang? The melody was pure, devoid of any Primal Qi, as it was carried by the wind, mesmerizing its listeners.

The fact that Conch’s flute melody could control wild beasts was common knowledge now… However, for a vicious beast such as Tiangou whose wild nature was difficult to tame to obey the commands of the tune was a shocking discovery.

Little Yuan’er applauded and said, “Good, good, good… Conch, continue playing. Keep it up. It’s no longer attacking!”

Hua Yuexing could not understand what was happening. Her energy arrows were no match for the melody of a mere mortal? She could not help but look at the 16-year-old Miss Conch. Conch was fair without any flaws. Her movements were graceful and moving. The look in her eyes as she played the flute was solemn and resolute. This was probably an inherent talent.

Lu Zhou was surprised as well. Tiangou was no ordinary beast. It seemed to have undergone some special Roulian training for it to be so powerful. Although it could not breach the barrier, based on its attack, it was clear it was strong.

Meanwhile, Duanmu Sheng brandished his Overlord Spear in front of the great hall.

Lanni and his subordinates surrounded Duanmu Sheng.

The Overlord Spear stabbed to the left and right…

“Pavilion Master, this is all a big misunderstanding! I can explain!” Lanni did not expect a single Evil Sky Pavilion disciple to be this powerful. This disciple of the Evil Sky Pavilion did not seem to feel any pressure fighting five opponents alone. Instead, as the fight progressed, he seemed even more invigorated and fought even more valiantly. He knew that he could not allow this battle to drag on. Also, there were many who were watching this battle. When the others from the Evil Sky Pavilions make their moves, it would be too late.

Duanmu Sheng cursed, “What’s there to explain? Die!”

Duanmu Sheng suddenly waved his arm. The fruits of his constant training under the waterfall were clearly displayed at this moment. The speed at which he wielded his spear and the precision was almost flawless.

Roulians had always been known for their agility, speed, and physical strength. However, at this moment, they were all pushed back by Duanmu Sheng.

“Someone has bewitched Tiangou… They wanted to spur you into attacking, Pavilion Master!” Lanni kept dodging as he explained loudly.

Lu Zhou looked up and glanced at Tiangou who was now hovering obediently above the barrier.

Mingshi Yin smiled and said, “If you’re sincere, why would you bewitch Tiangou?”

“Hm?” Lanni frowned deeply.

“I like your move of advancing by retreating. I must say that you’ve inherited most of my skills, but alas… that’s not enough!” Mingshi Yin finally joined in the fray.

Bam! Bam!

Two of Roulians were sent flying by Mingshi Yin.

Mingshi Yin chuckled gleefully. “Here comes your grandfather, me!” His entrance into the fight turned the tide of the battle immediately.

At this moment, Lanni began making hand signs. He made a strange hand seal with his hands and launched it.

Whizz! Whizz! Whizz!

The coffin inside the great hall began to move.

Lanni retreated as a wolf king avatar appeared…

Five-leaf?!

When the avatar appeared, the coffin shone with red radiance as it sailed toward it.

Mingshi Yin dodged the coffin.

Duanmu Sheng landed a few quick stabs on one end of the coffin. He was surprised to find that not a scratch could be seen on the coffin at all.

“What’s it made of? It’s so tough!”

The coffin started to spin. It flew in a sweeping motion as it spun.

Bam!

Duanmu Sheng raised his Overlord Spear before himself to block it. Under the heavy impact, he spun back.

The abnormality of the coffin was finally on display.

Duanmu Sheng could not move it; not even with his heaven-grade Overlord Spear!

The surface of the coffin kept glowing with a faint red light. This was rare among Formation veins.

When Primal Qi was condensed into energy, it would take on a golden hue. Why was the coffin shining with a red light?

Mingshi Yin gave up on the coffin. He dove toward the Five-leaf Lanni. Capture the king to capture the thief. He held his Separation Hook in a backhand grip as he moved at lightning speed!

Lanni pushed with both palms. His wolf king avatar pounced. Shockingly, and no less strange, the Golden Lotus under the wolf king avatar shone with a red light as well.

“Red?” Lu Zhou’s expression darkened. He recalled a line from the book again: I like gold, not red. Was it referring to this red light?

Bam!

Mingshi Yin drew his sword across Lanni’s energy shield. He retreated and hovered in the air. When he focused his gaze, he noticed ripples in Lanni’s energy that was quickly restored.

“What a mysterious object.” Mingshi Yin turned to look at the coffin.

Duanmu Sheng was occupied by it.

Who would believe that a mere Five-leaf cultivator was capable of dealing with Duanmu Sheng and Mingshi Yin at the same time? However, Duanmu Sheng and Mingshi Yin were only at the Three-leaf and the Four-leaf stage. It would be arrogant for them to think they were the only powerful ones in the wide world.

The red Formation veins on the coffin were indeed intriguing. Shortly after, the red light on the coffin shone with greater intensity.

Bam!

Duanmu Sheng’s arms felt numb from the impact. He had no choice but to retreat.

The coffin hovered before Lanni. He was flanked by his subordinates. He said, “Pavilion Master… I’ve traveled to visit you. I have no wish to make an enemy out of you. I’m here in the hopes of establishing a friendship. Why must you be so hostile?”

Mingshi Yin said coldly, “Save your breath. Don’t think that you can leave this place in one piece after causing such a scene. The Evil Sky Pavilion isn’t a place where you can come and go as you please.”

This tactic of advancing by retreating was too common. Great Yan was more familiar with it compared to Rouli.

Lanni looked up at Tiangou and flipped his palm.

The coffin spun.

Lu Zhou raised his palm.

A palm seal sailed toward the coffin.

Bam!

The coffin continued spinning.

However, this palm strike seemed to make Lanni happy and excited. “Aha! I knew it! You’re not a Nine-leaf cultivator!”

“Hm?” Lu Zhou was puzzled. ‘I only launched a single palm strike. How can he tell that I’m not a Nine-leaf cultivator?’

Lanni began laughing maniacally. “What I said is true. This coffin is real, and the books are real as well! The owner of the coffin once said that only a Nine-leaf cultivator is powerful enough to break the Formation veins of this coffin. The people of Great Yan are shameless and despicable for spreading false information about the Nine-leaf stage!” He suddenly flicked his finger. A beam of light shot toward Tiangou in the air.

Swish!

The light hit Tiangou between its eyes.

Chirp!

The deafening cry from the beast was unbearably deafening.

At this moment, the song of the flute abruptly came to a halt!

Lu Zhou looked at Conch and Little Yuan’er who were standing above the southern pavilion.

Little Yuan’er and Hua Yuexing shielded Conch behind them.

Energy arrows were formed and fired.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Meanwhile, Lu Zhou saw Lanni jump onto the coffin before he flew into the sky.

Lu Zhou looked at the Deadly Strike Card and sighed. He thought of his extraordinary power. Then, he pointed at two of Lanni’s subordinates and said, “Take them down.”

Duanmu Sheng and Mingshi Yin nodded in unison. A spear and a hook shot toward the two Roulians.

Lu Zhou no longer hesitated. He stepped into the air. He spread his arms and straightened them before flipping them. He pushed his hand out, and a blue palm seal shot out from his palm. The scripts for Abandon Wisdom appeared between his fingers. This palm seal seemed to contain enough power to destroy the world!

While standing on the coffin, Lanni sensed the incoming huge palm seal.

The massive palm seal seemed to bring with it four stars as it soared upward.

Boom!
