Chapter 1199 - Great Improvements

Chapter 1199: Great Improvements

After the female attendant left, from the southeastern corner of the palace, an old man in ornate armor appeared. He shook his head and sighed.

Lan Xihe only glanced at him. Her eyes shone as she calmly said, “Don’t worry. I won’t interfere.”

“You’ve already interfered,” the old man said, “The Sacred Hall has already released the news. They won’t pay attention to the imbalance this time.”

Lan Xihe furrowed her eyebrows slightly. “And let the people of the world suffer?”

The old man did not reply; he only looked at her silently. After a moment, he finally said, “This imbalance is different from the past. Do you remember when the last imbalance was?”

“More than 30,000 years ago?” Lan Xihe said, uncertain.

The old man shook his head. “No, it wasn’t really an imbalance 30,000 years ago. It was about 100,000 years ago…”

He raised his head and looked at the clear sky. It was so blue; not a gray cloud was in sight. He continued to say, “At that time, the Great Void’s stance was the same as well. Nothing was done about the imbalance, and chaos was allowed to reign. Only after chaos will all living things enter a long state of equilibrium.”

Lan Xihe did not say anything. How could she not understand that logic?

The anomaly that caused the imbalance could be temporarily suppressed with absolute strength, but the problem would not disappear. However, if chaos was allowed to reign, and they let nature take its course, peace would eventually return.

She had already understood this back when she was the Tower Master of the White Tower Council.

The major affairs of the world were constantly changing.



In the green lotus domain.

The Qin clan’s training hall.

Two elders had been lecturing the Confucian scholar who accompanied Qin Moshang all morning.

“Young Master has just activated his tenth Birth Chart. You must keep an eye on him and don’t allow him to leave your sight.”

“Don’t worry, elders,” the Confucian scholar replied with a smile.

“Also, pay attention to your attitude. Some people have been saying that you’re disrespectful toward Young Master… Your cultivation isn’t bad, but you must remember the hierarchy.”

The scholar frowned slightly. “I understand.”

“This is the third time I’ve warned you. If you continue, it’s inevitable that the Venerable Master will say something.”

The Confucian scholar bowed and said, “I’ll definitely remember the two elders’ teachings.”

“You may leave.”

“I’ll take my leave then.” The Confucian scholar respectfully left.

Not long after the Confucian scholar left, Qin Moshang flashed out from the corner. He placed his hands on his back and clasped them as he looked outside before he said, “Thank you, elders.”

One of the elders sighed softly before saying, “Although his attitude isn’t good, he’s doing it for your good. This is all I can do for you. If the truth reaches the Venerable Master’s ears, you’ll be at a disadvantage.”

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Qin Moshang did not take the elder’s words to heart. Before he left, he smiled and said, “Thank you, elders.”



Time flew by in just a blink of an eye.

The bad weather had continued for two months.

At this moment, the five brothers from the Evil Sky Pavilion appeared in a dark forest.

“Are we really going to go to the Unknown Land?”

“The imbalance is a great opportunity. It’s impossible to rely on Evil Sky Pavilion. Their overall cultivation is very low. If we continue to stay here, we’ll waste this opportunity.”

“The Tuoba clan’s Free Man has already replied to us and agreed to cooperate with us. We, brothers, must work hard together.”

“Are you sure you don’t want to at least say something to the Pavilion Master?”

“…”

“The Pavilion master has been in closed-door cultivation. If he were here, he would definitely agree with my actions. I don’t like Si Wuya’s style of using a chicken feather as an arrow.”

“Then are we still coming back?”

These words caused all of them to fall silent.

“Actually, the Pavilion Master isn’t bad. Unfortunately…”

“We’ll talk about the future later. We’re not betraying the Evil Sky Pavilion; we’re just going to the Unknown Land. If we obtain a lot of treasures, we can give some to the Pavilion Master for not killing us…”

“Then let’s go.”

The five brothers nodded at the same time.

The dark clouds in the sky seemed abnormal.

The five of them entered the dark runic passage together. With a flash of light, they all disappeared.



At the same time, in the Sky Martial Academy.

Si Wuya was lost in his thoughts when Wang Dachui leaped in from outside. He placed his hands on his waist and said, “Mr. Seventh, you’re right. They left today and haven’t returned.”

Si Wuya continued to look at the things in front of him, appearing unusually calm.

Wang Dachui said, “Why aren’t you angry?”

Si Wuya smiled and said, “Master had already hinted to me that he knew they would leave. Everyone has their own aspirations so there’s no need to force them.”

Wang Dachui asked, perplexed, “If he knew this was going to happen, why did he let them join?”

Si Wuya smiled but did not say anything.

The hearts of people were hard to predict. Up until now, the people of Evil Sky Pavilion were still relatively united. When he was the master of the Darknet, his influence was nowhere close to being like his master’s.

Wang Dachui sneered. “I just can’t stand their sense of superiority. Isn’t it just the Thousand Realms Whirling stage?”

“I’ll explain this to my master. You can return to your business…”

“Alright,” Wang Dachui said, “Oh, right, Zhao Hongfu asked me to inform you that the super runic passage between the White Tower Council and the Evil Sky Pavilion has been opened.”

Si Wuya nodded. This meant that Cheng Huang and Ye Tianxin could head to the White Tower Council together. He looked at the blueprint on the table and sighed.

“It seems like I have to speed up my cultivation as well…”

Si Wuya knew he had the Great Void Seed. It would not make sense if he did not make use of this advantage.



In the Preservation Hall.

Lu Zhou had been in a meditative state the entire time. He did not stop meditating even when the supreme mystic power had been replenished.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew open the doors of the Preservation Hall.

“Ding! System upgrade completed.”

“Ding! The system’s power has been increased.”

“Ding! You’ve meditated upon the Heavenly Writing 1,000 times. Obtained: a Heavenly Writing key.”

“Ding! The Heavenly Writing key can promote the supreme mystic power to the divine power.”

Lu Zhou opened his eyes.

“Use.”

Unlike before, the supreme mystic power quickly shrouded the blue Nine Transformation Yin Yang avatar in his Dantian’s sea of Qi.

When he manifested the blue avatar, he found that it was bluer than before.

“The divine power?”

Lu Zhou pushed his hand down.

Bam!

The palm seal easily left a palm-shaped hole on the ground.

Although the increase was not shocking, he could clearly sense that the divine power was several times stronger than the supreme mystic power.

Lu Zhou nodded his head in satisfaction. His new divine power aside, the Heavenly Writing Power should have been greatly enhanced as well.

Lu Zhou brought up the system interface. He noticed he could now purchase the Concealment Card and the Disguise Card. The duration of the effects of both cards had also increased to ten days.

Then, he saw the Deadly Strike card now had a probability of triggering a double effect based on the original effect. The Impeccable Card’s duration had also been increased by ten seconds. Upon seeing the change in the Impeccable Card, Lu Zhou felt like he had suffered a loss when he recalled he had previously synthesized an enhanced Impeccable Card.

Following that, he thought it was a win for him when he saw the effect of the Reversal Card had been improved.

Lu Zhou brought out a Reversal Card and crushed it.

In just a moment, vitality energy gathered, and his lifespan on the system interface increased by 1,000 days.

Lu Zhou nodded. He found the improvement to his satisfaction. It would help with upgrading his blue avatar in the future.

Apart from these, Lu Zhou noticed that there was an additional item called the beast essence that was sold for 100,000 merit points.

There was no description of the beast essence; only the price was displayed.

Lu Zhou looked at the new item in confusion. Based on its name, it did not look like it was for human consumption.

Then, he glanced at the Myriad Supreme avatar. Very well, the price was still listed with a series of question marks.

Lu Zhou thought to himself about the system, ‘Are you looking down on me?’

Following that, he discovered a few items were no longer for sale. The Binding Card, Top Defense Card, Second Grade Defense Card, and the Healing Card were no longer for sale. Perhaps, they conflicted with the divine power, and the divine power could make up for their existence. After all, let alone the divine power, the extraordinary power and the supreme mystic power had rendered the Healing Card rather useless.

At this time, a voice rang from outside the hall.

“Shen Xi requests to see the Pavilion Master.”

Usually, if the matter was not too important, they would call out from outside. If there were no response, they would leave.

“Come in,” Lu Zhou replied.

Shen Xi looked at the open doors before he walked into the hall.

As soon as Shen Xi walked in, Lu Zhou saw Shen Xi’s description immediately.

Name: Shen Xi

Identity: Great Circle human race

Cultivation base: Thousand Realm Whirling

Loyalty: 60%

Shen Xi kneeled on one knee before he said, “Pavilion Master, someone sent a letter ten days ago. I feel it’s of great importance. Please have a look.”

Shen Xi had been coming every day for the past ten days; it was only today that he had finally gotten a response from Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou opened the letter. It read:

“Brat, bring your head to this Young Master on a silver platter in fifteen days. Otherwise, all of them will die.”
