My Disciples Are All Villains Novel - Chapter 893
Chapter 893: The Third Birth Chart’s Fire Control Ability
Lu Zhou was puzzled by the series of notifications.
“The supreme mystic power?”
He had obtained six scrolls including the Human Scroll and the Earth Scroll. During the process, he had also obtained many Open Heavenly Writing Scrolls. Obtaining an Open Heavenly Writing Scroll was equivalent to unlocking new powers. This time, his meditation had gained him a privilege from the Heavenly Writing.
“Use.”
“Ding! Used the privilege from the Heavenly Writing. The extraordinary power had been upgraded to the supreme mystic power.”
Following that, Lu Zhou felt that all the cooling sensation of vitality energy stimulating his mind, his extraordinary meridians, and his sea of Qi. From the surface of his skin to the inside of his body, he felt as though he had been gently electrocuted, causing him to feel numb all over. The hair on his skin stood on ends. Apart from that, his mind was stimulated to an unprecedented level.
When his mental state finally stabilized, he discovered his extraordinary power had been replaced with the supreme mystic power.
The extraordinary power was exaggerated as it was; how insanely powerful would the supreme mystic power be?
In the beginning, there was the path. The path was pure, leading to all kinds of wonders and mysteries.
Rather than blindly speculating, it was better to test it out.
Lu Zhou opened his hand, and it glowed with a blue light.
“Blue?” It was still blue, but the supreme mystic power was a clearer and deeper blue compared to the extraordinary power. It shone even more dazzlingly than before.
“So this is the supreme mystic power? I wonder how powerful it is…”
Lu Zhou looked around. There was no way he could use the buildings in the Sky Martial Court to test the strength of the supreme mystic power. He did not want to move to another place; he liked this place. It was spacious and comfortable and there were not many people around. Moreover, the building would not be able to provide him with an accurate gauge of his new power.
“Forget it. I’ll test it out when I have the chance.” It was rather difficult to test his power without a Thousand Realms Whirling cultivator around.
Previously, the extraordinary power allowed him to defeat Nascent Divinity Tribulation Realm cultivators when he was in the Divine Court Realm. However, after sprouting the ninth and tenth leaf, the extraordinary power was no longer as exaggerated as before. After using it against the coffin and armor with red runes, he confirmed the extraordinary power was stronger than that of a Nine-leaf cultivator. With his current cultivation base, half of the extraordinary power could only put a dent in the astrolabe of a Five Chart Thousand Realms Whirling avatar. It would only cause the astrolabe to dim briefly, leaving no lasting damage. Would the supreme mystic power be able to damage an astrolabe?
After a moment, Lu Zhou clenched his hand, dispersing the supreme mystic power where he had placed the scarlet pheasant’s life heart. At this moment, the life heart was nowhere to be seen. Unlike the other two Birth Charts, the distinct edges of the third Birth Chart that had formed were faintly red, causing the third Birth Chart zone to look golden red.
At the same time, he could also sense his avatar had grown taller. It should be 400 feet tall now.
After Lu Zhou withdrew his Thousand Realms Whirling avatar, he looked at the system interface again.
Merit points: 48,630
“The 15,000 merit points are from Old Eighth?”
Now that he was reminded of Zhu Honggong, Lu Zhou decided to take a look to see what Zhu Honggong was doing. Since the extraordinary power had been replaced by the supreme mystic power, there should be changes in the Heavenly Writing Powers as well, right?
Lu Zhou closed his eyes and silently recited the mantra for the Heavenly Writing Power.
His eyes glowed blue before Zhu Honggong appeared before his eyes.
…
At this moment, Zhu Hong Gong was dressed in a long robe. He was seated in the highest chair, and his hands were placed on the armrests that had been carved into the likeness of a tiger’s head.
On the lower ground, a young man was in the midst of reporting something:
“Sect Leader, the Cool Breeze Sect, the Righteous Sun Sect, and the Virtuous Sect have agreed to be annexed. You’ve met the three sect leaders before this. If you want to kill them, all you have to do is say the word.”
Zhu Honggong opened his eyes and nodded in satisfaction. He waved his hand and said indifferently, “Kill them.”
“Wait.” Lu Li, who was sitting on the left, said, “This is a good time to win over the people’s hearts. Don’t start a massacre.”
Zhu Honggong smiled sheepishly before he said, “Ah, that’s right. I was too immersed in acting like my master; I couldn’t help it. Please don’t misunderstand me, senior.”
“Your master likes killing people?” Lu Li asked as he furrowed his brows.
“Uh… Not really. However, he’s never indecisive when killing those who deserve to be killed,” Zhu Honggong replied.
“One should look at the situation before killing. In the eyes of the sects of here, you’re invincible. There’s no need for you to lower yourself to the level of these ants,” Lu Li said.
“What do you mean by that, senior?” Zhu Honggong asked.
“We’ll rule with both kindness and power. Reward the original members of the Flood Sect with earth-grade weapons, cultivation methods, and other treasures. After three days, you’ll join the alliance of the cultivation world formed by the ten major sects and take the highest position,” Lu Li said.
Zhu Honggong was stunned.
When Xu Wanqing heard the words ‘earth-grade weapons’, his eyes lit up immediately. He fell to one knee and said, “Thank you, Sect Leader. Thank you, senior. For your grace of bestowing me an earth-grade weapon, I’m willing to follow you for the rest of my life!”
Zhu Honggong frowned and said, “Earth-grade weapons are nothing.” He looked at his gloves silently. He did not activate it, but he knew it was better than a heaven-grade weapon.
“Thank you, Sect Leader,” Xu Wanqing said before he took his leave.
Lu Li looked at Xu Wanqing’s retreating back and said, “This is the power of kindness… Earth-grade weapons are nothing to you so why don’t you give them to these people? What you need to do is control the rare resources here. For example, the fire spirit stones, the purple fire stones, and possibly life hearts and Birth Chart Beasts.”
“Is this appropriate?” Zhu Honggong asked.
“It’s not inappropriate. If you ever learn about the Black Tower Council in the future, you’ll understand how kind this method is,” Lu Li replied.
Zhu Honggong nodded. Then, he said with a sigh, “In the end, you have to become like those you hate.”
At this moment, Xu Wanqing suddenly entered the hall again. He bowed before he said, “Sect Leader, I have good news!”
“Speak.”
“Ever since you defeated the top ten experts of the three major sects yesterday, another five sects are willing to join our Flood Sect!” Xu Wanqing said.
“Alright, I’ll see them later.”
“Understood.” Xu Wanqing turned around and left again.
Lu Li calculated the progress in his mind. When there were no outsiders left in the hall, he said to Zhu Honggong, “Manifest your avatar so I can have a look.’
Zhu Hong nodded and manifested his avatar.
Lu Li studied the avatar as he said, “Its true height is 130 feet now. When I was in the Black Tower Council, I read that one would need roughly 1,200 years of life when sprouting the ninth leaf. The life heart of the flounder only has 300 years of life. You have about 900 years left in you… This number is barely enough…”
“Um… Senior, does that mean I’ll become an old man?” Zhu Honggong asked.
“The life heart of the king of the sea beasts has 1,900 years of life left.
The heart of the Sea Beast King has 1,900 years left. We can use it to prolong your life by 400 years. The remaining 1,500 years of life should be saved for when you’re activating your Birth Chart. After sprouting the ninth leaf, your lifespan will extend as well. Therefore, there’s no need for you to worry about that,” Lu Li said as he continued to look at Zhu Honggong’s avatar. It seemed like he was not aware of the method of severing the lotus.
“You have a point… Senior, I realized you’re quite similar to my Seventh Senior Brother,” Zhu Honggong said.
“Your Seventh Senior Brother?”
“You’ve seen him on the Sky Shuttle. I brought Dang Kang with me to lure the sea beasts away at that time to save my Seventh Senior Brother,” Zhu Honggong said with a sigh, “We have a very good relationship. I’m sure he must be crying his eyes out at this moment…”
Lu Li recalled the scene in the fog above the Endless Ocean. “Him? He also smells of the energy from the Great Void.”
“What’s the smell of the energy from the Great Void?” Zhu Honggong asked as he lifted his arm and sniffed his armpit.
“This is very strange. When both of us return, we should have answers when we meet your master. However, I have to think of a way to mask the Great Void energy on your body.”
“Thank you, senior. Apart from my master… Ah, no. Apart from my Eldest Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother, Fourth Senior Brother, Seventh Senior Brother, you’re the first person I met who treats me so well.”
“…”
…
The Heavenly Writing Power was cut off.
Lu Zhou nodded in satisfaction. He no longer had to worry since he knew that his disciple was safe. Based on what he had seen, it seemed like Lu Li was going to help his disciple to sprout the ninth leaf.
“Lu Li is also a member of the Black Tower Council? Why is he so different from Yi Yao? Is there internal strife in the council?”
Lu Zhou did not dwell on the matter for long. Instead, he gauged his supreme mystic power. After a moment, he discovered he had three-quarters left. He could continue observing Zhu Honggong if he so wished.
“How powerful is the supreme mystic power? Moreover, there’s still the fire control ability from the third Birth Chart…”
When he thought about his third Birth Chart, he looked outside. After a moment, he channeled his energy into the Purple Glazed Ceramic before he flew outside.
