Chapter 1453: Old Friends
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The old man’s face was filled with doubts. After taking another look, he confird it was indeed a golden palm seal. He was confused. Lu Tiantong was a peerless expert who had dominated the black lotus domain, when did Lu Tiantong beco a golden lotus cultivator? He began to wonder if he really
mistook soone else for Lu Tiantong and doubted himself.
While the old man was lost in his thoughts, the golden palm seal had already arrived in front of him. The power of the Dao burst forth.
Just as a spatial tear was about to appear, Lu Zhou said in a low voice, “Freeze.”
Electric arcs appeared on the ground in just an instant, freezing everyone and everything in their paths.
Boom!
The golden palm seal landed on the old man’s chest. So what if he comprehended the law of space from the power of the Dao? He would still have to take a beating faced with the law of ti.
‘When ti resud, the old man flew backward.
At this ti, Lu Zhou could see the power of a Great Saint. He had thought the old man would definitely be at a disadvantage after all these moves, but the old man suddenly vanished into thin air when the old man was flying back.
The old man seed to have traveled through space. When he reappeared in front of Lu Zhou, he struck with his palm.
Once again, the two opponents’ palms collided.
Boom!
Another 10,000-foot-long energy seal rippled out as a result of the collision. It created a long and narrow ditch when it hit the ground.
The two opponents retreated at the sa ti and faced each other from afar.
Lu Zhou’s palm felt numb. He was slightly surprised by the Great Saint’s strength.
In general, Great Saints had a deep comprehension of the Dao and the laws of ti and space. They could control ti and space within a certain range and to a certain extent. These two laws were the highest laws in the power of the Dao.
Lu Zhou had a feeling the person in front of him had comprehended other laws as well. He stared at the old man unblinkingly. Fortunately, the Great Void had only sent a Great Saint here. He could still teach a Great Saint a lesson with a few Deadly Strike Cards even if the Great Saint had already ford a
Divine Soul Pearl. After dealing with his opponent, it would not be a problem to enter the Pillar of Destruction.
If the Great Void had sent a Dao Saint or a Great Dao Saint here, then he could only use the Hourglass of Ti and the Collective Teleportation Jade Talisman to escape with his disciples.
The old man looked at Lu Zhou in surprise as well. After a long silence, he asked, “Are you done fighting?”
“ym?”
“Old Lu, when you used the golden palm seal, I really thought I had mistaken soone else for you. However, the power contained in your palm seal can’t deceive ! You’re Lu Tiangtong! If you continue to pretend not to know , I won’t let you enter the pillar!” the old man said.
Lu Zhou removed his protective energy. Since the other party was so insistent, he would just play along. There was no need to fight if it was not necessary. Moreover, based on the old man’s words, it seed like the old man was going to let him enter the Pillar of Destruction without making a fuss.
Lu Zhou asked, “Who are you exactly?”
The old man smiled and said, “More than 30,000 years ago, who else apart from , Venerable Master Duanmu, could be a match for you in the black lotus domain? However, I’m not Great Saint Duanmu! My cultivation base is already higher than yours! Old Lu, don’t say that I bullied you. If you didn’t
ambush earlier, you’d definitely be the one to suffer.”
“You’re Duanmu Dian?” Lu Zhou asked in surprise.
“You finally rember!” Duanmu Dian walked over to Lu Zhou. After so many years, the friendship did not fade. They had fought side by side and gone through life-and-death situations together, after all. All kinds of mories from the past appeared in his mind at this mont.
When Duanmu Dian arrived in front of Lu Zhou, he patted Lu Zhou’s shoulder. In fact, he really wanted to hug Lu Zhou. However, seeing Lu Zhou’s resistance, he decided against it. Then, he asked, “You didn’t die?”
Lu Zhou asked, “Do you really want to be dead?”
“Of course, not!” Duanmu Dian sighed as he said, “Back then, we worked together to suppress the black lotus domain. It was an era of peace and prosperity. We were respected by everyone. Who knew the Great Void would co to take us away? I still don’t understand why you suddenly disappeared after
that.”
“Disappeared?” Lu Zhou naturally did not know anything about this since he was not Lu Tiantong.
Duanmu Dian said skeptically, “We entered the Great Void at the sa ti and had a bright future ahead of us. Who knew why you would suddenly disappear? Did you forget about this as well?”
Lu Zhou nodded slightly, indicating he did not rember.
Duanmu Dian sized Lu Zhou up again. He circled Lu Zhou before he looked at Lu Zhou’s disciples and asked, “These are?”
“My disciples,” Lu Zhou replied.
Duanmu Dian said with a sigh, “So you’re going to pass down your cultivation path? In the end, you got what you wanted...”
‘These words reminded Lu Zhou of the Scripture of Sermons. Did Lu Tiantong plan to accept disciples after obtaining the Unholy One’s Scripture of Sermons?
Lu Zhou calmly said, “It’s been a long ti. I’ve forgotten many things.”
“It’s good that you’ve forgotten,” Duanmu Duan said before he stepped forward and patted Lu Zhou’s arm again. Then, he pulled Lu Zhou into the courtyard and said, “Your cultivation has improved as well. It’s a good ti for you to return to the Great Void with to et the Hall Master.”
Lu Zhou waved his hand and said, “I’m not in a rush to return to the Great Void.”
“What do you an?”
“The people from the Great Void want to harm . How can I allow them to do as they wish?” Lu Zhou said.
Upon hearing this, a genuine look of surprise appeared on Duanmu Dian’s face. “Did you suddenly vanish because the people from the Great Void wanted to kill you?”
Duanmu Dian’s expression darkened as he launched a palm seal.
Boom!
The palm seal reduced the rocking chair into dust imdiately.
“This is outrageous! They told you went out to the Endless Ocean to maintain the balance and fought with the Kun!” Duanmu Dian said indignantly.
Lu Zhou scoffed. “With my cultivation base, how could I be a match for the Kun?”
Duanmu Dian nodded. “Now that I think about it, you’re right. It was an oversight on my part. I was actually deceived by the villains! Who plotted against you? Tell ! I’ll complain to the Hall Master!”
Initially, Lu Zhou thought Duanmu Dian was a little smart unlike his descendant, Duanmu Sheng, who was very direct and a little slow. However, now, it seed like apart from speaking a little faster, Duanmu Dian’s brain was no different from Duanmu Sheng’s. There was no doubt that the duo was
related!
Outwardly, Lu Zhou said, “This matter isn’t that simple. Have you ever thought about what would happen if the person who plotted against is the Hall Master?”
*... Duanmu Dian was stunned. Then, he shook his head and said, “Impossible!”
“How can you be so sure?” Lu Zhou asked.
“The Hall Master is responsible for maintaining the balance in all the world. He possesses the Scales of Justice. He’s the most respected person in the Great Void. You were just a re Venerable Master at that ti. Why would he be bothered with a Venerable Master? Since the land split, more than 100,000
years have passed. The Grear Void has taken in countless experts. Why would he make things difficult for you alone?” Duanmu Dian asked.
Lu Zhou thought to himself, ‘I can’t really say you’re slow-witted when you can make such a sound analysis.
Nonetheless, Lu Zhou did not explain himself. After all, he was not Lu Tiantong, and he did not have a deep understanding of Lu Tiantong’s affairs. He only said, “The more impossible it is, the more likely it is...”
Duanmu Dian was at a loss for words.
Lu Zhou continued to say, “If you really think I’m Lu Tiantong, then you should keep this matter today a secret.”
Duanmu Dian remained silent.
At this mont, Ye Tianxin, who had long understood the duo’s conversation, said with a smile, “My master and senior are old friends who haven’t seen each other for tens of thousands of years. If there’s nothing wrong, how could my master not return to the Great Void?”
“You have a point.” Duanmu Dian nodded.
“Senior, although you’ve been away from the black lotus for such a long ti, I’m sure you must have heard of my master...” Ye Tianxin said.
“Hmm?” Duanmu Dian’s expression grew a little unnatural. He thought to himself, ‘Lu Tiantong, you’re really shaless! You still want to show off in front of at Dunzhang’s Pillar of Destruction?”
Nevertheless, thinking of their relationship as old friends, Duanmu Dian was very cooperative. He said with a sigh, “Back then, your master was truly famous. He was a respected Venerable Master. There’s no need to talk about this
Ye Tianxin:
“What I ant to say is that my master had fought with the people from the Great Void a few tis now,” Ye Tianxin said.
Duanmu Dian looked at Lu Zhou in shock as he asked, “Are you planning to rebel?”
