My Disciples Are All Villains-Chapter 1747 - The Price of Increasing the Speed by 10,000 Times

The cultivators from Zhu Yong Hall looked at the strange and never-seen-before 17 leaves that spun around the golden halo. Although they were all experienced cultivators, they still felt uneasy when they saw the unfamiliar avatar and leaves. They felt that the swordsman was not simple and was likely a supreme being. According to the common path of cultivation, after activating the Birth Charts, one leaf was equivalent to 12 Birth Charts. After the 36th Birth Chart, one would no longer sprout leaves but form light disks instead. The highest number of leaves a cultivator could have was 12 leaves. 17 leaves were indeed a little sensational.

Yu Zhenghai could not help but sigh softly when he saw everyone’s attention was on Yu Shangrong. ‘Once again, the limelight has been stolen by Second Junior Brother… Forget it. Now’s not the time to think about stolen limelight…’

Yu Zhenghai said in a deep voice, “Those who don’t want to die, step aside.”

“...”

Everyone did not move even though they were afraid.

Someone said, “Lady Zhao Yue is the Commander of Zhu Yong Hall. According to the rules, she should stay and contribute to the hall. If she leaves just like that, the destruction of the upper core will be in vain!”

There was no such thing as a free lunch in the world.

Based on Yu Zhenghai’s temper, normally, he would have already dealt with this group of people. However, when he recalled his Seventh Junior Brother’s words, he said, “I’m the first disciple of the Evil Sky Pavilion, Yu Zhenghai. If there’s any problem, I’ll bear it.”

“How will you bear it? If the Great Void falls, it’ll ruin countless lives!”

Yu Zhenghai swept his gaze across the crowd as he said, “I believe you’ve all heard the rumors. The fall of the Great Void is inevitable. This means, the destruction of the upper cores is also inevitable. If you want to live, you better get out of the way. The Evil Sky Pavilion might have a way out for all of you. Otherwise…”

Yu Zhenghai did not finish his words. He only scoffed as killing intent burst forth.

“How can we trust you!”

“You have no choice but to trust me. This is the last warning,” Yu Zhenghai said as the Jasper Saber began to thrum.

The person who attacked Zhao Yue said coldly, “No matter how domineering you act, you’re still only a Great Dao Saint. I, a supreme being, won’t allow you to act so arrogantly!”

Buzz!

An avatar soared into the sky.

After passing five Birth Trials and becoming a Dao Saint, an avatar would be more than 300 feet tall. From the 31st to the 33rd Birth Charts, each would increase the avatar’s height by about 100 feet. After activating the 34th Birth Charts and becoming a Great Dao Saint, the avatar would increase by about 500 feet with each Birth Chart. After activating the 36th Birth Chart, there was no need to pass a Birth Trial since the Birth Trials served to activate the next Birth Chart. Hence, there were only five Birth Trials. After becoming a lesser supreme being, one’s avatar would be about 3,000 feet tall. A light disk would increase its height again by another 1,000 feet.

The exact height of the other party’s avatar was unknown, but it was at least 4,000 feet tall. This meant that the other party had at least one light disk.

Everyone was in awe when they looked at the supreme being’s avatar.

While Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong were thinking about how to respond, a majestic voice rang from afar.

“Zhuang Mo, Emperor Yu wants you to return.”

‘Zhuang Mo?’

‘Emperor Yu?’

Everyone looked at Zhuang Mo.

Zhuang Mo’s gaze was like a falcon’s as he looked in the direction of the voice. He saw a figure flying over with a smile on his face. His expression was quite unsightly as he said, “Jie Jin’an?”

The other person was Jie Jin’an from the Great Abyss Land.

Jie Jin’an scoffed as he said, “The Great Abyss Land is in dire need of manpower. Who said you could leave?”

“So he’s from the Great Abyss Land?!”

“Why did someone from the Great Abyss Land run to the Great Void instead of staying in his own place?”

Realization dawned on everyone. Indeed, if there was a supreme being in Zhu Yong Hall, how could he stay unknown for so long? As it turned out, he was a spy!

Sensing everyone’s skeptical and suspicious gazes, Zhuang Mo said in a low voice, “Jie Jin’an! You’re just a Dao Saint. How dare you speak so arrogantly in front of me?”

Jie Jin’an shook his head and said with a sigh, “Indeed, I’m like a fallen tiger that even dogs can bully. I still remember the time when you kneeled in front of me and acknowledged me as your master.”

“How dare you!”

An energy seal flew out.

Jie Jin’an flipped in the air, avoiding the energy seal.

Zhuang Mo said, “You’re no longer the supreme being from back then! This is the price you paid as a follower of the Unholy One. The cultivators from Zhu Yong Hall are here and yet, you still dare to appear! You have guts!”

Everyone looked at Jie Jin’an immediately.

‘Isn’t he from the Great Abyss Land? How did he suddenly become a follower of the Unholy One?’

Jie Jin’an snorted and said, “Even Emperor Yu doesn’t dare to treat me like this! How dare a mere supreme being like you be so arrogant?”

Zhuang Mo was infuriated by these few words. His avatar immediately sent a few energy seals toward Jie Jin’an.

Boom!

Suddenly, a beam of light shot over from afar and landed on Zhuang Mo’s avatar.

Zhuang Mo’s expression changed drastically. He spat out a mouthful of blood and looked at the source of the beam of light in fear.

Everyone was frightened as well and did not dare to move.

A figure appeared in the sky and said in a deep voice, “Those who disobey the Sacred Temple will be severely punished.”

Zhuang Mo hurriedly put his avatar away. He endured the pain and said with a bow, “Lord, Lord Wen!”

With this, everyone realized the person who attacked was none other than Wen Ruqing, one of the Four Supremes of the Sacred Temple.

Wen Ruqing looked at Zhuang Mo and said, “Return to the Great Abyss Land, and mind your own business!”

“Yes,” Zhuang Mo said. After spitting out another mouthful of blood, he flew away with his tail tucked between his legs.

Wen Ruqing looked at Zhao Yue and said, “Congratulations, Miss Zhao Yue, on successfully comprehending the Great Dao.”

“Thank you,” Zhao Yue said.

Wen Ruqing did not stay any longer and disappeared in just a blink of an eye.

With this, the cultivators from Zhu Yong Hall no longer dared to stop Zhao Yue from leaving. They quickly stepped aside.

“Let’s go.”

Then, Yu Zhenghai and the others flew away and disappeared into the horizon.

…

At night.

Just like the vast Unknown Land, noises could be heard intermittently In the Evil Sky Pavilion.

Energy surged, stirring up the wind and clouds, at the eastern pavilion.

This lasted for five days. It only stopped in the morning on the fifth day.

Lu Zhou opened his eyes when he heard the sound of energy resonance. He saw the second light disk from the golden avatar as soon as he opened his eyes.

“Light disk?”

Lu Zhou was surprised. Usually, the further one progressed, the more difficult it would be. However, he formed his second light disk so quickly?

He studied the light disk as he muttered to himself, “The energy from the four power cores is truly mysterious…”

‘Where did the Unholy One obtain or find the four power cores?’

Not only did the four power cores help him to activate his final four Birth Charts, but they also helped him greatly with forming his light disks. Based on the remaining energy in the power cores, if he absorbed all of it, he could form at least six light disks.

Lu Zhou was already very satisfied with his golden avatar. Now, the most important thing was to let his blue avatar grow stronger. He turned to look at his avatar. As expected, it did not sprout the 15th leaf.

Who knew if the time was too short or if the blue avatar could only sprout 14 leaves at most? In any case, this matter could not be rushed.

“Since I can’t sprout a leaf, I might as well activate my Birth Charts,” Lu Zhou muttered to himself as he brought out the ancient Frost Dragon’s divine soul pearl from the Vast Sky Bag, “I hope the divine soul pearl of an ancient creature won’t disappoint me.”

‘Currently, the blue avatar has 27 Birth Charts. I wonder how many Birth Charts this divine soul pearl can activate?’

Filled with anticipation, Lu Zhou placed the divine soul pearl on his lotus seat.

Click!

A crisp noise rang out.

Perhaps, Lu Zhou had been activating his Birth Charts too frequently. This time, he felt as though a giant hammer had smashed his Dantian’s sea of Qi. An intense pain assaulted him immediately.

Lu Zhou frowned, enduring the excruciating pain. He quickly activated the Purple Glazed Ceramic before waves of cold energy swept through his body, greatly reducing the pain. Following that, he waved his hand, and the Pillar of Impermanence shot out. With a smack of his hand, he pushed it into the ground.

Boom!

“Divine Dao power!”

Lu Zhou focused his mind and adjusted the speed of the Pillar of Impermanence, increasing it by 10,000 times.

Buzz!

Lu Zhou saw his lifespan decreasing swiftly. It was not just the Pillar of Impermanence that was absorbing his life, but the blue avatar that was in the midst of activating Birth Charts was absorbing his life as well. Fortunately, his second light disk provided him with another 300,000 years of life. With two light disks, he had 600,000 years of life on top of his existing lifespan. Moreover, he also had the Reversal Cards. All these were more than enough. Otherwise, he would have long lost his life based on the speed of consumption.

The blue avatar was spinning so fast that it was no longer possible to clearly see it.

Finally, Lu Zhou closed his eyes, satisfied, and continued to comprehend and meditate on the Heavenly Writing. Comprehending and meditating on the Heavenly Writing had become part of Lu Zhou’s daily life. Every day without fail, even when he went out he would comprehend and meditate on the Heavenly Writing at least once. It had already become part of his instincts.

The Heavenly Writing strengthened the divine Dao power while the blue avatar provided him with the divine Dao power.

By now, three-quarters of Lu Zhou’s divine power had already been transformed into the divine Dao power.

…

Time continued to pass.

It felt like the sun had just risen in the east when it had already set in the west.

Lu Zhou felt like he was dreaming. He dreamed of the Endless Ocean. He flew everywhere, searching for something. He flew for a very, very long time, but he did not see any island or sea beasts. The sea in his dream was calm, without any ripples. He did not know how long he had been flying or what he was searching for. All of a sudden, he was pulled into a powerful whirlpool in the sea.

With that, he suddenly woke up from that incomprehensible dream.

As soon as he opened his eyes…

“Ding! You’ve comprehended the Heavenly Writing 1,000 times! You’ve obtained an Advancement Card.”

It was the long-awaited system notification.

Lu Zhou calmed down and looked at the blue avatar in front of him. With the 10,000-time increase, the blue avatar was still spinning; the activation was still not complete. However, he could sense that the energy from the divine soul pearl had almost been fully absorbed.

Lu Zhou waved his hand, bringing out the newly-obtained Advancement Card. Previously, he carefully went through the powers of the Heavenly Writing that he had mastered. Previously, he had chosen to improve the power of teleportation to the great power of teleportation. He wondered which power he should choose to improve next.

‘Power of healing? After improving it, will I be able to bring the dead back to life? However, I’ve already mastered the resurrection technique so there’s no meaning in improving the power of healing. I should use it to increase my strength…’

The only offensive power from the Heavenly Writing was the power of speech.

The Unholy One’s painting, his increasing strength, and the improvement of the power of speech would also add to his law of destruction.

After a brief moment, Lu Zhou decided to improve the power of speech.

“Improve.”

“Ding! The power of speech has been successfully improved.”

Immediately after that…

Click!

A crisp noise rang in the air, and the blue avatar stopped spinning. Following that, six new Birth Chart zones began to shine in succession.

Lu Zhou’s heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively looked at his lifespan on the system interface. He only had 960,000 years of life left. He had lost about 600,000 years of life. One Birth Chart cost him 100,000 years! This price was… a little too high!
