    “It’s a life heart?” Mingshi Yin moved closer and looked at the life heart greedily. “Uh, master…”


    “Hmm?”


    Lu Zhou’s ‘hmm’ was stretched longer at the end, and it contained a hint of challenge. Although it was just one word, it clearly said, “If you have the guts, you say it…”


    Mingshi Yin took a step back with a respectful expression on his face. “It’s nothing, it’s nothing. I’ll go back to sleep now. Uh, I mean, I’ll go back and cultivate now.”


    Then, Mingshi Yin discreetly waved at Conch.


    Conch bowed and then followed Mingshi Yin out of the training hall. She felt that Mingshi Yin was a little strange so when they were outside, she asked, “Fourth Senior Brother, do you have bugs on your body?”


    “Huh? Bugs?”


    “Otherwise, why do you keep scratching yourself?” Conch asked, confused.


    Mingshi Yin began to retch again. He did not even look back as he shed away, retching.


    Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!


    Qiong Qi hurriedly chased after Mingshi Yin.


    In just a blink of an eye, the man and the dog vanished into the distance, leaving Conch in a daze.


    ‘Was it not just excrement from a fierce beast? It’s not that disgusting, right?’


    …


    Inside the southern training hall.


    Lu Zhou studied the life heart in front of him. He did not know which fierce beast the life heart belonged to, but he could sense the mysterious and unfathomable energy contained in the life heart. It was as vast and deep as the ocean; it was immeasurable. It was far superior to the life heart of a beast emperor.


    “Divine beast?”


    Lu Zhou continued studying it. He could not figure out its grade.


    “Let’s test it.”


    Lu Zhou clenched his hand and mobilized his Primal Qi. It flowed along his Eight Extraordinary Meridians before surging out from his palm and into the life heart.


    Buzz!


    Blurry scenes began to appear in Lu Zhou’s mind.


    He saw astrbes and avatars shing in the sky. Blood rained down, the sea parted, and the world copsed.


    Lu Zhou cut off his Primal Qi immediately. The life heart fell from his hand, rolling on the ground a few times before it came to a stop.


    Lu Zhou seemed to be infected with some strange feelings.


    “The emotions from its previous owner?” Lu Zhou was taken aback. He did not expect the previous owner of the life heart to be able to leave such a deep impression on the life heart. This meant that it would not be easy to use this life heart.


    Lu Zhou inhaled deeply and calmed his emotions. Then, he waved his hand, bringing the life heart to him.


    “Again!”


    Lu Zhou clenched his hand and mobilized his Primal Qi again.


    Just like before, scenes of bloodshed appeared. Corpses littered the ground as cultivators killed each other in the sky.


    At this time, he felt as though a huge hand was ruthlessly digging into his Birth Pce before a piercing pain assaulted his heart and mind.


    Lu Zhou unclenched his hand. He used the divine power to dispel the lingering emotions from the life heart’s previous owner and the pain.


    Lu Zhou exhaled as he looked at the life heart in shock. He muttered, “Whose life heart is so powerful?”


    “Ding! The life heart of Gou Chen, the Saint yer. Ability: unknown.”


    “...”


    ‘Gou Chen?’ Lu Zhou looked at the life heart in a daze.


    At this moment, Yuan Lang, one of the 49 swordsmen,nded at the entrance. He bowed and said, “Senior Lu, Venerable Master Qin invites you to the northern training hall for a gathering. However, if you’re busy, it’s fine. I’ll inform Venerable Master Qin immediately.”


    Yuan Lang came to the southern training hall often to invite Lu Zou out, but most of the time, he was ignored. He had long cultivated an iron heart that could withstand rejections. If he was refused, then he would just return and report it to Qin Renyue.


    “Alright,” Lu Zhou replied.


    Yuan Lang was briefly startled by the unexpected reply. Then, he hurriedly said, delighted, “Thank you, Senior Lu. I’ll lead you there.”


    Lu Zhou put the life heart away into the Vast Sky Bag before he shed to the entrance.


    At this time, a thought urred to him. Jie Jin’an had hidden the aura of the life heart by covering it with a fierce beast’s excrement. Should he follow Jie Jin’an’s example and hide the life heart within a fierce beast’s excrement? After all, treasures would only attract trouble. Even experts would covet such a treasure.


    However, when he thought about the excrement, he shook his head. ‘Forget it. I’m not even afraid now that one of the Great Void Seed has been exposed, and this thing definitely can’tpare to a Great Void Seed.’


    “Lead the way.”


    “Yes.”


    The duo flew toward the northern training hall and arrived in just a blink of an eye.


    When Lu Zhounded, Qin Renyue walked up to him with a smile on his face. “Brother Lu, I apologize for not personally inviting you over.”


    When Lu Zhou saw how lively it was, he asked, “What’s the matter that deserves such a celebration?”


    Qin Renyue said, “The green lotus domain has another Venerable Master.”


    “Oh?”


    “Someone saw the signs of the birth of a new Venerable Master near the Sky Hook Peak,” Qin Renyue said.


    Lu Zhou: “...”


    Qin Renyueughed heartily. He was 100 times happier than when he had passed the Venerable Master Trial. He said, “It’s rumored that the new Venerable Master is a Great Venerable Master. If he’s really a Great Venerable Master, it would be great. No matter how serious the imbnce is, the safety of the green lotus domain won’t be threatened! It’s only natural that I have to share such good news with Brother Lu!”


    Lu Zhou could not be bothered to exin himself. He entered the training hall and randomly found a ce to sit.


    Qin Renyue chose the seat across from Lu Zhou. After he sat down, he said with a smile, “I’ve invited the eight Free Men here as well even though not all of them are able to attend.”


    “Eight Free Men?”


    “They represent the eight forces in the green lotus domain. They heard about the birth of a new Venerable Master and wanted my help so they could visit him,” Qin Renyue exined.


    “So you want me to visit him as well?”


    Qin Renyue could tell there was something strange with Lu Zhou’s tone so he said, “No, no, no. I don’t dare to ask that of Brother Lu.”


    Lu Zhou looked at the wine jar on the table and recalled his time at the Sky Hook Ropeway. He could still vividly remember the feelings in his Eight Extraordinary Meridians before and after he became a Venerable Master.”


    Lu Zhou poured himself a cup of wine before drinking it in one gulp.


    The fragrance of the wine melted on his taste buds, and its warmth seeped into his heart. It was a feeling he had not felt for a long time and left him feeling nostalgic.


    After a moment, Lu Zhou asked, “Do you know Gou Chen?”


    “Gou Chen?” Qin Renyue asked. Then, he said, “It was one of the ancient divine beasts. Before the disappearance of the Great Void, humans and fierce beasts lived together. When the chaotic era dawned, the world fell into chaos, and humans and fierce beasts slowly began to separate. Then, there was a civil war between the humans, dividing thends. Simr to humans, fierce beasts have wars, big and small, among themselves as well. Generally speaking, the fierce beasts from before the Great Void disappeared were known as ancient divine beasts. However, they gradually went extinct due to the war, bing rarer and rarer. Many of their life hearts were harvested by humans. Only a few powerful ancient divine beasts remain, but their whereabouts are unknown. Their life hearts are known as the ancient Great Void’s life hearts.. As for Gou Chen, it should’ve long been extinct.”
