    An indescribable power swept over the entire ce like a tsunami.


    “Fourth Senior Brother!”


    “Old Fourth!”


    Lu Zhou originally wanted to make a move, but seeing that Mingshi Yin was safe and sound, he rxed and focused on staying alive.


    Tian Wu’s overwhelming power sent the cultivators flying.


    Lu Wu leaped over and stood in front of the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion like a mountain that blocked the wave of a tsunami.


    Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!


    Wave after wave of energy swept out.


    Crack!


    Tuoba Sicheng’s flying chariot could not withstand the powerful force and immediately broke.


    Fan Zhong’s flying chariot had long broken into pieces and fell to the ground.


    Tuoba Sicheng manifested his astrbe and moved it in front of him. His green astrbe seemed to be able to cover the sky and the sun.


    Meanwhile, Lu Zhou held Unnamed in the form of a shield to block the wave of energy. It was a little difficult to defend himself with his 11 Birth Charts. He had no choice but to mobilize his divine power and stabilize himself. The divine power was still sufficient for now. With Whitzard around, he was not too worried about the usage of his divine power.


    Tian Wu’s crazy attacksted for fifteen minutes.


    When thest wave of attack dispersed, everyone put away their astrbes.


    Tuoba Sicheng and Fan Zhong had lost more than ten people from this attack alone. Their men’s bodies were pierced by icicles before they even had a chance to react. As for the surviving cultivators, they barely managed to regroup, looking as though they had just survived a disaster.


    Lu Wu’s red fur stood on end as he sessfully blocked the attack.


    Everyone was shaken and shocked. To think Tian Wu was not at its peak. If it was at its peak, its strength was likelyparable to a divine beast or a Saint!


    When everyone turned to look at Tian Wu, they saw it had turned into ck fog again, swiftly shrouding Mingshi Yin.


    Mingshi Yin struck with his palm. Following that, vines from the Bluewood Heart Technique began growing wildly on the ground before wrapping themselves around him.


    “It’s useless!” Tian Wu’s ck fog easily repelled the vines.


    “Tian Wu, you guarded this ce for so long because you want the Great Void Seed?” Tuoba Sicheng asked at this moment.


    Tian Wu ignored him.


    Tuoba Sicheng scoffed before he leaped into the sky. His astrbe appeared in his hand.


    The astrbe was thousands of meters in diameter, covering the sky.


    Everyone raised their heads.


    36 triangles shed briefly before Tuoba Sicheng’s Birth Charts shone brightly on his astrbe. He had deliberately revealed the number of his Birth Charts.


    “20 Birth Charts?”


    Fan Zhong frowned upon seeing Tuoba Sicheng’s Birth Charts. He waved his hand, ordering his men to return to his side.


    Lu Zhou was surprised as well. At the same time, he felt lucky. If he had recklessly used the Reduction Card, he would have suffered a great loss. Tuoba Sicheng had 20 Birth Charts. With the Reduction Card, he would lose one Birth Chart, which still left him with 19 Birth Chart!


    “Today, I’m the master of this ce!”


    Buzz!


    The astrbe released all its power at Tian Wu at once.


    Theke water surged up high in the sky as the ck fog rose from Tian Wu’s eight sides.


    Boom!


    Lu Zhou brought out Unnamed in the form of a shield to block the shockwave from the collision between the two.


    “Stay with me! I’ll keep you alive!” Lu Wu was still as steady as Mount Tai, and its expression was solemn as it blocked the attack for everyone. Then, it turned around and looked at Duanmu Sheng. “Young Master.”


    “Lu Wu?”


    “Be careful. Conceal your aura… This goes for all of you as well,” Lu Wu said, shifting his gaze from Duanmu Sheng to Lu Zhou’s other disciples.


    “Okay.” Duanmu Sheng nodded obediently. He knew this situation was not something he could handle.


    Lu Zhou’s other disciples were very careful as well.


    Meanwhile, Zhao Yu and Kong Wen were dumbfounded when they heard Lu Wu’s words. Was it useful to conceal their auras? Would it protect them? It was useless!


    At this time, Tuoba Sicheng swooped down. He held a ck scimitar in his hand.


    Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!


    Four distinct noises rang out.


    Lu Zhou could clearly sense Tuoba Sicheng’s power of the Dao.


    Meanwhile, Tuoba Sicheng hovered in the air and asked with a smile, “Fan Zhong, what are you waiting for?”


    Fan Zhong said, “Brother Tuoba, you already have 20 Birth Charts. What do you need me for?”


    “You’re either my enemy or my ally. Choose now,” Tuoba Sicheng bluntly said.


    Fan Zhong’s expression turned unsightly.


    In fact, Fan Zhong and Tuoba Sicheng’s rtionship had never been good. Naturally, they did not shed all pretenses of cordiality and onlypeted in the dark.


    When they both had 18 Birth Charts, Fan Zhong could do as he pleased. However, 20 Birth Charts made things a little difficult.


    Not too long ago, Ye Zheng had been lobbying for the three of them to work together. He had tried to persuade Fan Zhong to join them. They would take the resources at the Pir of Destruction and help Ye Zheng seek revenge.


    Lu Zhou said, “Fan Zhong, if you dare to move, I’ll be the first to take your life.”


    It was imperative that the two Venerable Masters did not form an alliance at this time. Lu Zhou’s card could only deal with one Venerable Master, and Tuoba Sicheng was destined to be his enemy. Since Fan Zhong’s stance was not firm, he could still be restrained by Lu Wu. Finally, there was Ye Zheng who was hiding in the dark. Once he dealt with Tuoba Sicheng, he could easily deal with Ye Zheng.


    Lu Wu turned around and said, “You have no business here. Get lost.”


    Tian Wu continued to cackle. Then, it suddenly turned into a woman. She, Tian Wu, held Mingshi Yin tightly. Her expression was a mixture of anger and sadness as she let out a lowugh that sounded as though she wasughing and crying at the same time.


    “Fierce beasts can really… transform into humans…”


    Zhao Yu said, “This is still a mystery. In ancient times, there were many experts that were both human and beast…”


    “...”


    Tian Wu opened her mouth and spat out a ck orb. The ck orb hovered above her palm, emitting a strange light. It was more beautiful than a ck pearl and more dazzling than the moon.


    “The Divine Soul Pearl!” Tuoba Sicheng inhaled sharply.


    “The Divine Soul Pearl?”


    Zhao Yu, who was like a fountain of knowledge recently, exined, “Cultivation in ancient times wasn’t as detailed and systematic as it is now; it was veryplicated. Some people, after activating a number of Birth Charts, would fuse their Birth Charts into one to protect them. After merging into one, you have the Divine Soul Pearl. It’s like the life hearts of fierce beasts. If you obtain it, you can directly activate a Great Birth Chart and pass a Birth Trial!”


    “Really?” Kong Wen’s eyes widened in awe. He had never heard of such a precious treasure.


    “You’ll know if I’m lying or not once you see Venerable Master Tuoba and Venerable Master Fan’s reactions…” Zhao Yu said.


    All of them turned to look at the two Venerable Masters.


    Tuoba Sichengughed. “I can’t believe this! There’s the Great Void Seed and the Divine Soul Pearl! My trip here isn’t in vain! Everyone, listen up!”


    “Yes, Venerable Master Tuoba!”


    Dozens of disciples gathered in a neat formation immediately.


    “Set up the formation. Don’t let a single one of them go!”


    “Understood!”


    Tuoba Sicheng’s smile gradually turned cold. He nced at Fan Zhong from the corners of his eyes and asked, “Have you thought it through?”


    Fan Zhong hesitated and looked at Lu Wu who was staring at him.


    At this moment, Tian Wu flew up with the Divine Soul Pearl in hand. “Who gave you the courage?!”


    Swoosh!


    Everything froze. This was true stillness unlike the power of the Dao that was previously demonstrated.


    There were manyws that Venerable Masters could control. There was thew of space and thew of time, among others. Venerable Masters could slow time or speed it up, but they could reverse time. Only a Saint could stop time.


    In other words, Tian Wu’s strength was that of a Saint.


    Lu Zhou could clearly feel the change in time. He silently chanted the mantra for the Heavenly Writing to free himself from the shackle of time. He saw Tian Wu had already arrived in front of Tuoba Sicheng and the Divine Soul Pearl in its hand had already hit Tuoba Sicheng’s chest.


    An unprecedentedly powerful energy pierced Tuoba Sicheng’s chest, carving a piece of flesh out.


    “...”


    In the eyes of Tuoba Sicheng and the others, it looked as though Tian Wu had teleported to Tuoba Sicheng before striking him.


    “How’s this possible?!” Tuoba Sicheng flew back.


    Tian Wu did not stop. She turned around to look at Lu Zhou and used the power of the Dao again.


    Simr to before, everything froze.


    Lu Zhou saw Tian Wu flying over and knew he could not stay still. He cast his grand technique along with his divine power, shing away.


    Swoosh!


    “Huh?”


    Tian Wu’s attack missed. She was shocked.. She thought her attack would definitelynd and did not expect Lu Zhou to be able to move after she froze time.
