My Disciples Are All Villains Novel - Chapter 848
Chapter 848: The Swirling Clouds, the Tempestuous Wind and Thunder, and the Raging Water
Above the Sky Wheel Rift Valley, the 200-foot golden avatar was shining dazzlingly.
The cultivators who were close to it could barely look at it due to how bright it was. Moreover, they did not understand what they were seeing as well. When they looked down, they saw flashing palm seals and corpses strewn all over from the entrance to the depths of the valley. Apart from that, the Sky Wheel Mountain Range was riddled with palm-shaped holes.
Some self-proclaimed powerful cultivators were smashed into pulps by the palm seals before they could even widen their eyes in shock.
Xuan Chengzi and Mo Xinglu had regarded Yu Chenshu as a stronger Ten-leaf elite, and at most, Lu Zhou was slightly stronger than Yu Chenshu. However, at this moment, Lu Zhou’s performance had completely overturned their opinions. Even an elite who had activated his Birth Chart would not be so heaven-defying, right?
Xuan Chengzi had clearly seen Lu Zhou cast the Nine Cut Hand Seals at a disciple at the Sense Condensing Realm who had just climbed up the Sky Wheel Mountain Range. He was absolutely not mistaken that it was the Nine Cut Hand Seals, and such a technique was used on a disciple at the Sense Condensing Realm who could only climb mountains and wade through waters but was unable to fly yet.
Xuan Chengzi felt his hands tremble. When he saw the disparity between his strength and Lu Zhou’s strength, he could not help but doubt himself. “Am I… Am I a fake Ten-leaf cultivator?”
This was the first time Xuan Chengzi had felt this way. He truly wondered if he had really reached the Ten-leaf stage.
Upon hearing his words, Mo Xinglu said in a daze, “I feel the same way as well. There’s a possibility this senior was holding back his strength all along…”
“How about… escaping?”
“We can’t escape.”
At the same time, behind Xuan Chengzi and Mo Xinglu, a Nine-leaf cultivator with a pale face coughed violently before he said, “We have to meditate and recuperate as soon as possible. The karmic fire has already invaded the inner body. If we don’t treat it in time, I’m afraid our internal organs and Extraordinary Eight Meridians will be destroyed.”
If they left, they would definitely die. If they recuperated here, they might have a chance of surviving. They were all aware of the effects of the karmic fire.
Let alone Nine-leaf cultivators, even a Ten-leaf elite like Sikong Beichen would have a hard time recovering after being hit by the karmic fire, especially one from a Ten-leaf elite.
“Go down and heal yourself.”
“Understood.”
The Void Sect and the True Kunlun Sect had no intention of participating in the battle and landed on the Sky Wheel Mountain Range.
…
Meanwhile, the other cultivators were frightened to their bones. How terrifying was it to see a person constantly unleashing grand techniques as though they cost nothing? Moreover, the golden palm seals shrouded with karmic in the sky hit every target accurately.
The clouds above the Sky Wheel Mountain Range churned from the roiling energy, the earth within dozens of miles quaked, and the water and the water raged. At the same time, claps of thunder sounded in the sky while the wind stirred up into a flurry of hurricanes.
…
Yu Chenshu who was brimming with confidence felt his confidence collapsing as he witnessed this scene. The puppet he was proud of, with its invulnerability, techniques, cultivation, and weapons, was like a toy in front of Lu Zhou.
Bang!
Yu Chenshu crashed into another mountain. The rocks that rolled down the mountain from the impact were like his heart that was constantly sinking.
‘Why? Was he holding back his strength earlier? How?’
Bang!
At this moment, Yu Chenshu’s body landed near the entrance of the valley and was stuck there. Soon enough, his weapon, the Confinement Seal, landed in front of him.
Lu Zhou did not relent. Palm seals after palm seals landed on Yu Chenshu, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood. At this moment, the black and grey drawing on Yu Chenshu’s body seemed to have dimmed slightly.
Yu Chenshu looked up at Lu Zhou in disbelief as Lu Zhou continued to unleash grand techniques after grand techniques, taking everyone down. At this moment, he realized he had made a mistake; a very grave mistake.
Following that, Yu Chenshu moved his arm and dislodged himself from the crack before he landed on the Confinement Seal. He panted heavily; he felt dizzy, his ears were ringing; he had lost his calm.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Another three Nascent Divinity Realm cultivators fell from the sky.
At this moment, a corpse smashed toward Yu Chenshu. Alarmed, he quickly pushed the corpse away with hands that glowed red.
Suddenly, a beam of light shone on Yu Chenshu body.
At some point, Lu Zhou had already arrived above Yu Chenshu. He held the Golden Taixu Mirror and shone it on Yu Chenshu again, forcing whatever little that was left of his extraordinary power into the mirror. With the help of the Purple Glazed Ceramic, he managed to recover the slightest bit of his extraordinary power. However, even the slightest bit of extraordinary power was useful.
From the mirror, Lu Zhou could see Yu Chenshu’s puppet had been gravely injured. Its size had shrunk by more than half at this moment. After putting the Golden Taixu Mirror away, he asked indifferently, “Yu Chenshu, tell me, what do you think?”
As soon as Lu Zhou finished speaking, Yu Chenshu grunted and spat out a mouthful of blood. “Impossible! I don’t believe this! This is not possible!”
Bang!
Yu Chenshu glared at Lu Zhou as blood mist began to rise from his body as he charged toward Lu Zhou. He mustered up all the vitality he had collected while the Life-Siphoning Technique and attacked Lu Zhou.
For a moment, Yu Chenshu’s afterimages filled the sky.
Lu Zhou only looked at Yu Chenshu expressionlessly and shook his head. He had more than enough time to wait for Yu Chenshu to use up all his trump cards. Since he had used the Peak Trial Cards several times now, he knew how to use the cards to their full potential.
Lu Zhou casually cast his techniques to defend himself.
Seeing One’s Nature, the Four Ward Mudras, the Six Compatible Seal, the Eight Trigrams Seal, and the Golden Buddha Body.
Who had ever seen such techniques being cast so casually and at the same time?
The sound of resonance from the techniques rang one after another in the air.
As Yu Chenshu moved and attacked in a frenzy, his afterimages surrounded Lu Zhou.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Nonetheless, Lu Zhou remained as stable as Mount Tai with his Golden Buddha Body, occasionally unleashing his grand techniques. Whatever Yu Chengshu managed to damage, he would repair it with ease and speed. At the same time, he was thinking about how he could kill the puppet. If he still could not kill the puppet after the time from the Peak Trial Card ran out, he would really be out of his depth.
“No… No… I don’t believe this!” Yu Chenshu’s storm-like attack fell on Lu Zhou’s impregnable defenses as though his attacks were made from cotton. At most, they managed to cause faint ripples. Since he had been attacking in a frenzy, it was only natural that his consumption of Primal Qi was high.
As time passed, Yu Chenshu’s speed grew slower and slower. It was not long before his palm seals began to weaken as well. At this moment, he was filled with despair as he looked at his opponent’s defenses and the Golden Buddha Body that still looked as glorious as before. Moreover, his opponent Primal Qi did not seem to decrease at all!
Whoosh!
Out of desperation, Yu Chenshu struck one last time, launching a palm seal. Then, he fell to the ground and landed on one knee. Blood and sweat dripped from his body to the ground as he panted heavily.
“Exhausted?” Lu Zhou shook his head and said indifferently, “You’ve overestimated yourself, trying to hit a rock with an egg.”
Subsequently, Lu Zhou checked the time. He was left with almost half the time from the Peak Trial Card. Then, he shifted his attention to the drawing on Yu Chenshu’s body; it had grown even lighter now. Could the drawing be the life force of the puppet? If the drawing, or the life force disappeared, would the puppet die?
Lu Zhou recalled when he had stabbed Yu Chenshu with Unnamed, the puppet had suffered serious injuries as well. It was only due to the Life-Siphoning Technique that the puppet was restored. Without the replenishment from the vitality energy, it would not have recovered.
An idea began to form in Lu Zhou’s mind at this moment. He descended and landed in front of Yu Chenshu.
“You! Who are you, Brother Lu? Where did you come from?” Yu Chenshu asked calmly, suppressing the fear and despair that were rising in his heart. Whether it was intentional or not, he had begun to use honorifics to address Lu Zhou.
“You know the answer to that.”
“…” Yu Chenshu really did not know! Lu Zhou’s energy was golden, then, sometimes it was blue and black!
Yu Chenshu grew calmer and calmer. Then, he asked through gritted teeth, “Fine. Let this last move determine our life and death!”
Yu Chenshu suddenly charged forward as black runes suddenly appeared on the drawing on his body. The black runes suddenly solidified into a saber and stabbed at Lu Zhou.
“Black runes?” Lu Zhou frowned.
Whoosh!
Lu Zhou shook his head and easily moved back. In just a few breaths, he had returned to the depths of the valley where blood flowed like a river, and corpses and severed limbs were strewn on the ground.
Yu Chenshu chased after Lu Zhou. His expression was one of unwillingness. Why did that person choose to retreat at this moment? His mood sank to the lowest depth. Finally, he understood Lu Zhou’s earlier words. It seemed like he never did understand his opponent.
After a moment, Yu Chenshu saw Lu Zhou standing in the valley. With hatred boiling in his heart, he stabbed Lu Zhou. He would risk his life or death on this!
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou moved three steps forward in just a breath and appeared behind Yu Chenshu. Since he possessed unlimited Primal Qi now, let alone touching his body, Yu Chenshu could not even get close to him.
Upon realizing the futility of his action, Yu Chen was about to turn tail and run.
“It’s too late,” Lu Zhou said emotionlessly as he unleashed ten Abandon Wisdoms consecutively.
The appearance of the ten golden palm seals was as dazzling as the sun. Due to the palm seals overlapping, the characters ‘Abandon Wisdom’ could hardly be seen. They fell in the sky like a meteor toward Yu Chenshu.
Bang!
The palm seals landed on Yu Chenshu’s back, causing him to stumble forward.
Lu Zhou looked at the depths of the canyon before he launched another palm seal. “Do you know why I chose this place?”
At this moment, Yu Chenshu could not stop throwing up blood. Fear and despair had taken over all his emotions. How could he think about anything else?
Bang!
Another few palm seals landed on Yu Chenshu again. At this moment, the black saber in front of him suddenly shot into the forest in the depths of the valley.
Then, the black saber split into hundreds of sabers before it further split into thousands of sabers and finally exploded.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
This move, which contained all of Yu Chenshu’s power, landed on the valley and the mountains, causing the earth and mountains to quake violently.
Just as Lu Zhou had said, it was already too late when realization finally dawned on Yu Chenshu.
