Chapter 1221: Making a Move
Flas exploded like a volcano eruption and engulfed the green barrier ford from the power of the Birth Charts. The heatwave covered a radius of 10,000 ters, drying up the black fog.
The flying beasts in the sky flew away; the plants on the ground withered; the soil darkened and hardened imdiately.
The cultivators strengthened the barrier and resisted the high heat.
Lu Zhou had an extrely high tolerance for heat. Apart from the fire resistance ability he obtained from a life heart, he had also spent half a year in the depths of the lava in Sky Wheel Mountain Range for his first Birth Trial. Therefore, the Fire Phoenix’s flas did not affect him much.
Lu Zhou erected a protective barrier around Whitzard to keep the heat at bay.
The spectators had retreated quite a distance away so they were not too affected as well.
On the contrary, the 49 Swordsn and the 36 Confucian scholars felt extrely uncomfortable. Under the intense heat of the flas, so of them were on the verge of collapsing, looking as though they were going to drop from the sky at any given mont.
The Fire Phoenix showed no sign of stopping. It continued to spew streams of flas that were thousands of feet long and wider than its body.
At this mont, a creaking noise rang from the barrier.
One of the 49 Swordsn gritted his teeth and said, “Hold on!”
If the barrier collapsed, all of the 85 cultivators would drown in the sea of fire. The consequences would be unimaginable. It did not matter how many Birth Charts they had or how high their cultivation bases were, Once they were burned by the Fire Phoenix’s powerful flas, they would continue to burn until nothing was left.
Qin Renyue and Ye Zheng surveyed the situation, not daring to act rashly.
Based on this, it could be seen that beast emperors were not inferior to Venerable Masters at all.
Ye Zheng furrowed his brows. “This beast… Isn’t he supposed to be the weakest now that it’s about to be reborn? How can it still be so powerful?”
Qin Renyue retorted, “If you don’t know, what makes you think I have the answer?”
Ye Zheng glanced at Qin Renyue from the corners of his eyes and said, “It’s best we work together. Ultimately, the power of the Dao is limited…”
Qin Renyue ignored Ye Zheng.
The duo had their own plans. If they were not careful, they would end up being taken advantage of by the other party.
At this mont, one of the 36 Confucian scholars suddenly vomited. With that, one of the astrolabes disappeared, leaving a gap in the green barrier.
Boom!
The flas that had found an opening struck imdiately.
Ye Zheng’s expression changed slightly before he flashed to the front of the flas and manifested his astrolabe.
Ye Zheng’s astrolabe was astonishingly large, easily blocking the flas.
Alas, it was not enough. The injured Confucian scholar fell and was instantly engulfed by the flas.
A heart-wrenching cry rang in the air, accompanied by the appearance and disappearance of a Thousand Realms Whirling avatar. No matter how many Birth Charts he had, it was reduced to zero soon after. In the end, all that was left was a corpse that was burned to crisps.
Ye Zheng turned around and shouted, “Qin Renyue!”
Qin Renyue jumped up and manifested his dazzling astrolabe. It looked like a super-sized moon. Soon enough, 18 Birth Charts flashed on the astrolabe.
At this ti, Lu Zhou looked at the huge astrolabe and murmured to himself, “18 Birth Charts… 3 Birth Trials…”
In comparison, the number of Lu Zhou’s Birth Charts was really too pitiful.
Lu Li said in a voice filled with awe, “I heard that passing the third Birth Trial is like contending with heaven and earth. I wonder how he passed it…”
“Contending with heaven and earth?” Lu Zhou raised an eyebrow.
Lu Li nodded. “I’ve only heard about it in passing. It may not be accurate. As the ancient people say, ‘Lightning strikes the wicked’. In fact, most people are unaware that lightning strikes are one of the ways to pass Birth Trials…”
“…”
‘Does this an I have to be electrocuted to pass the third Birth Trial?’ Lu Zhou furrowed his brow slightly. If he was in the modern world, he would not have to worry about not being able to find a suitable place to pass the Birth Trials.
At this mont, Yan Zhenluo chid in, “Lu Li is right. Apart from that, those who have a strong Birth Palace are likely to pass the Birth Trials. However, the stronger the Birth Palace, the more strict the conditions to pass the Birth Trials will be. During the third Birth Trials, those who are on the cusp of mastering the power of the Dao have a difficult ti looking for a suitable place since most harsh environnts don’t affect them at all…”
…
Back in the sky, Qin Renyue held his astrolabe with 18 Birth Charts horizontally. It shone dazzlingly as 18 beams of green light shot out.
The Fire Phoenix continued flapping its wings, fanning the flas, as it retreated in the air. At this ti, a blazing white light burst forth from its chest, intensifying the light from the flas.
Ye Zheng put his astrolabe away and flashed around the Fire Phoenix, leaving afterimages in his wake. When the afterimages ford a line, the special ti-stopping power appeared again.
The Fire Phoenix was frozen in the center.
With that, Qin Renyue’s 18 beams of light easily landed on the Fire Phoenix.
Boom!
The Fire Phoenix dropped from the sky toward the mountain crevice. Its flas were extinguished imdiately. With that, darkness descended on the entire place again.
Qin Renyue looked down from the sky.
Ye Zheng laughed before he swooped down.
Qin Renyue frowned. “What are you doing?”
“The Fire Phoenix is severely injured now. Naturally, I’m going to take it down,” Ye Zheng replied.
“If anyone’s going to take it down, it should be ,” Qin Renyue said indignantly. With a wave of his hand, the 49 Swordsn got into a formation and surrounded the mountain crevice.
Energy swords soared into the sky.
Ye Zheng said coldly, “You old thing, I knew you wouldn’t follow the agreent…”
Ye Zheng waved his hand as well.
The now 35 Confucian scholars swiftly descended on the ground and brought formation flags before stabbing them into the ground.
Qin Renyur frowned. “The 36 Big Dipper Flag Formation?”
“That’s right. After all, if I don’t make sufficient preparations, how can I go against your 49 Swordsn?” Ye Zheng said.
“But you’re missing one person.”
“Wrong.” With that, Ye Zheng brought out a formation flag. “The 36 Big Dipper Flag Formation is sothing the ancestors left behind. They believed heaven is ford from the Big Dipper’s stars. Each star represents a power so there are 36 powers. Qin Renyue, I’m determined to obtain the Fire Phoenix.”
“You!” Qin Renyue did not expect Ye Zheng would use the 36 Big Dipper Flag Formation here. He looked at the formation flags fluttering in the wind before he suppressed his anger and said, “Fine, the Fire Phoenix is yours. Let’s go!”
Lu Zhou thought to himself that if Qin Renyue really left, they would not be able to put on the ‘Three Kingdoms’ act. Hence, he called out, “Hold on.”
The spectators in the distance were shocked. There was actually soone who dared to interrupt the Venerable Masters? Everyone’s attention shifted to Lu Zhou imdiately.
Before this, Lu Zhou had already studied his item cards carefully, especially after his system had been upgraded. With the upgrade, his item cards had also been upgraded.
“Who’s that?”
The two Venerable Masters looked at Lu Zhou in unison. The duo could sense that Lu Zhou’s Voice Transmission was extraordinary.
Lu Zhou leaped lightly, rising up into the air. He looked like a celestial being with his white hair, causing people to take him seriously.
At this ti, one of the 49 Swordsn cried out, “Venerable Master Qin, he’s the old man who killed Zhu Yan!”
The person who had spoken was Yuan Lang.
Qin Renyue raised an eyebrow. “I see.”
Ye Zheng asked in confusion. “Who are you?”
At this ti, the spectators began to recognize Lu Zhou.
“Hey, isn’t he the strongest cultivator in Great Yan, Old Demon Ji… No, I an, Senior Ji?”
“What Senior Ji? He’s Senior Lu who caused the collective demotion of the Black Tower Council mbers. He’s also Pavilion Master Lu of the Evil Sky Pavilion!”
So of the red lotus cultivators were rather knowledgeable. They knew Lu Zhou was from the golden lotus domain. It did not matter to them if his surna was Ji or Lu. They were only certain he was the Pavilion Master of the Evil Sky Pavilion.
“He’s also the one who defeated Lan Xihe, the strongest person in the White Tower Council!”
Upon hearing the discussions in the surroundings, the green lotus cultivators who were watching the battle raised their heads curiously.
Then, one of the green lotus cultivators said, “He’s still too weak. So what if he has made so small achievents or if he’s the strongest person in those places?”
