My Disciples Are All Villains Novel - Chapter 695
Chapter 695: African Chief or European Emperor?
There was no excitement in the subsequent lucky draws.
No matter how enthusiastic a person was, they would still get bored if things were repetitive.
Lu Zhou was the same.
He drew for the entire night so he felt slightly tired the next morning.
Perhaps, it was due to his lack of extraordinary power, he could not stay awake for too long.
…
A night went by.
Aside from the good start, his next 100 draws ended with thank-you messages.
If Lu Zhou was not tired and fed up, he would have started cursing.
He decided to do another draw seeing that he still had 100 merit points…
“Lucky draw.”
“Master!” At this moment, Zhu Honggong entered the room. He exclaimed in excitement, “Master, I’m now at the Four-leaf stage!”
“Ding! Spent 50 merit points. Thank you for your participation. Luck point +1.”
Lu Zhou looked up at Zhu Honggong who entered the room. With a stern expression, he said coldly, “Scram!.”
Zhu Honggong shuddered. He hastily said, “I’ll scram right away.” He hastily retreated from the room and closed the room.
Outside the eastern pavilion, Zhu Honggong scratched his head and mumbled, “Why is master in such a bad mood? Did I do something wrong?” He went down the stairs, still puzzled. ‘Does Master think that my cultivation base is too low?’
When he thought about it, he thought that might be the case. After all, among the other disciples, his cultivation base was the lowest.
…
“Son, did your master praise you?” Zhu Tianyuan walked into the room.
Zhu Honggong smiled and said, “He did… He praised me a lot.”
“How did you praise you? What did he say”
“Scram.”
“Is that how you talk to your father? I was just asking how your master praised you.”
“I told you… Scram!”
“Heh, spare the rod and spoil the child. Do you think your father’s Eight-leaf cultivation base is just for show?”
Then, a miserable cry rang in the air.
…
Inside Lu Zhou’s room.
Lu Zhou felt slightly groggy. Therefore, he entered his meditative state and meditated on the Heaven Writing scrolls.
As his extraordinary power was being replenished, a cool sensation filled his mind. His mental state was being restored. Apart from that, he could also feel that his meditation speed when meditating on the Earth Scroll was much faster than before.
…
In just a blink of an eye, three days had passed.
“Ding! You’ve meditated upon the Earth Scroll 100 times. Obtained one Open Heaven Scroll.”
‘Open Heaven Scroll?’
Lu Zhou opened his eyes. It had been a long time since he saw this item. He did not think he would be rewarded with this when he meditated on the Earth Scroll.
Based on his previous experiences, every time he obtained an Open Heaven Scroll, they had always been remnant pieces. Would it be the same this time?
He checked the dashboard. Indeed, there was an Open Heaven Scroll.
“A complete one?” He was surprised by this.
It seemed like the system was feeling generous today.
Lu Zhou nodded in satisfaction.
He used the Open Heaven Scroll.
Faint glittering lights swirled around him. Soon after, they entered his body.
He felt nothing much after obtaining the Open Heaven Scroll so he continued to meditate on the Heaven Scroll.
…
Another three days passed.
According to his previous meditation speed, his extraordinary power should have been replenished by now. However, after six days and six nights of meditation, his extraordinary power had not been fully replenished.
“Is this the effect of the Open Heaven Scroll?” Lu Zhou stopped meditating on the Heaven Writing Scroll.
He could feel that the rate at which his extraordinary power was accumulated did not change. This meant that the Open Heaven Scroll provided him with a greater upper limit of extraordinary power.
Lu Zhou was satisfied with his increased durability.
“Lucky draw.”
“Ding! Spent 50 merit points, 100 luck points, Shining Stone x2, Reversal Card x30.”
…
Throughout the next month, Lu Zhou kept repeating the dull routine of attempting lucky draws and meditating on the Heaven Writing scrolls. At the same time, he did not forget to cultivate as well. Everything he did was to prepare himself for the real Nine-leaf stage.
There were two main requirements. The first one was that he had to have more than 876 Reversal Cards. The second was for him to reach the peak of the Eight-leaf stage.
Lu Zhou was getting closer and closer to meeting these two requirements.
…
Meanwhile, in the red lotus domain.
Inside the main hall of the 12 halls of the Sky Martial Court.
“Elder Qiu, we’ve received basic information about the golden lotus domain. We’re sure that there is only one Nine-leaf cultivator there. Also, the life stones of Gu Ming and his two companions have shattered,” a core disciple said with a bow.
Elder Qiu lowered his brush. He nodded and said, “What do we know about this Nine-leaf cultivator?”
“The man’s name is Ji Tiandao. He had just recently reached the Nine-leaf stage. Against such a weak opponent, we should head over as soon as possible.”
“No,” Elder Qiu raised his hand and slowly said, “The Flying Star House’s Jiang Wenxu went to the golden lotus domain several centuries ago. I received a letter from the Flying Star House’s Meng Changdong. Jiang Wenxu’s life stone has shattered. Before he died, he sent a crystal back to the Flying Star House. This Nine-leaf cultivator is the only one who could’ve killed Jiang Wenxu.”
How could they underestimate someone who could kill the Nine-leaf Jiang Wenxu?
“You’re right, Elder Qiu.”
“What’s the status of the research on the Sky Shuttle?” Elder Qiu asked.
“We need another month… For now, there are two ways to reach the other side. The first is through the Black Water Mystic Cave, but it’s easy to get lost in there. The advantage is that it’s calmer and safer if we travel in a transporter. The second is the Endless Ocean. However, its waves are violent, and they might damage the transporter. We’re still researching the Sky Shuttle and the Water Shuttle. I suggest that we proceed with both at the same time.”
“Let’s do that, then. What’s the Flying Star House up to recently?” Elder Qiu continued asking.
“Recently, the Flying Star House is having troubles of its own. I’m afraid we can only count on ourselves to get to the golden lotus domain.”
“Troubles?”
“They’ve lost several Nascent Divinity realm cultivators recently… They suspect that the Thousand Willow Monastery is behind this, but I feel the monastery master, Xia Changqiu, isn’t capable of such feats.”
“They can deal with that on their own. Focus our efforts on researching the Sky Shuttle and the Water Shuttle.”
“Yes, elder.”
…
Inside the eastern pavilion of the Evil Sky Pavilion.
Lu Zhou inhaled deeply.
“Lucky draw.”
This was his 800th draw.
“Ding! Spent 50 merit points and 10 luck points. Obtained: Reversal Card x10, Shining Stone x2, Disguise Card x2, Critical Block Card x66.”
Lu Zhou was satisfied with this draw.
He was not too concerned about the number of Reversal Cards he obtained. The two Shining Stones were much more precious.
He closed the lucky draw interface and looked at his items list.
Items: Deadly Strike Card x2, Critical Block Card x138 (passive), Binding Cage Card x2, Whitzard (rest completed), Bi An, Ji Liang, Qiong Qi (juvenile), Golden Taixu Mirror, Disguise Card x3, Reversal Card x900, Shining Stone x5.
Weapons: Unnamed, Life Cutter, Jade Horsetail Whisk, Spotless Dagger, High Void, Magistrate Brush.
When he saw that he had 900 Reversal Cards, Lu Zhou began to calculate inwardly.
900 Reversal Cards were equivalent to more than 1,232 years of life. This meant that he finally had enough Reversal Cards.
Lu Zhou closed the interface and closed his eyes slightly. He sensed his remaining Primal Qi in his dantian’s sea of Qi. He was one step away from reaching the peak of the Eight-leaf stage.
Everything was ready.
“Is anyone there?” Lu Zhou called out.
A disciple appeared in the eastern pavilion, “Your orders, Pavilion Master?”
“Bring Si Wuya here.”
“Understood.”
…
Shortly after, Si Wuya arrived at the eastern pavilion and entered the room. When he saw his master was in good spirits and looked healthy, he said respectfully, “Master… you asked for me?”
“I’m going to preach about the Nine-leaf stage in seven days.”
When Si Wuya heard this, he exclaimed in shock, “How are you going to preach about it, master?”
