Chapter 1788: Repaying the Debt With a Light Disk Pearl (1)
“Do it,” Wen Ruqing said again.
Lu Zhou said disapprovingly, “You gave up so quickly?”
“Don’t force me,” Wen Ruqing said in a slightly trembling voice.
“When you betrayed me back then, who forced you?” Lu Zhou asked.
As soon as Lu Zhou’s voice fell, Wen Ruqing seemed to have lost his rationality and rushed toward Lu Zhou, unleashing a large number of palm seals.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
No matter how hard Wen Ruqing attacked, Lu Zhou easily resolved the attacks. The unique and familiar electric arcs on his body easily devoured Wen Ruqing’s attacks.
“I had no choice!” Wen Ruqing shouted as he continued to strike at an extremely high speed.
Creak!
When Wen Ruqing heard the sound of freezing again, his heart skipped a beat. He raised his head and saw the Primordial Star Formation had changed. The power of the laws from the formation was now surging toward Lu Zhou. It was as though the formation was built for Lu Zhou, not him.
“You really created the Primordial Star Formation?” Wen Ruqing asked in shock and disbelief.
At this moment, Lu Zhou appeared in front of Wen Ruqing. His body was covered in electric arcs as his hand that glowed blue struck out at Wen Ruqing’s shoulder.
Bang!
Wen Ruqing tried to dodge, but it was impossible. He let out a muffled groan as he was sent flying. He felt his blood and qi surge, and his internal organs hurt.
‘How powerful…’
“Is that all you got?”
That dignified and disdainful voice rang in Wen Ruqing’s ears. He looked up.
Lu Zhou, whose eyes shone with a blue light, stood in front of Wen Ruqing, looking down at him. He was in his Unholy One’s state so he naturally had the aura of a supreme ruler.
Wen Ruqing’s body trembled. “T-teacher?”
For many years, this familiar figure had dominated Wen Ruqing’s dreams.
“You still have the guts to call me teacher?”
Lu Zhou’s voice made Wen Ruqing’s head spin.
Bang!
A blue energy seal flew out of Lu Zhou’s hand and struck Wen Ruqing’s chest. It felt as though he had been struck by a huge pillar. He spat out blood and flew back again. When he finally stabilized his footing, he found that Lu Zhou was already standing nearby.
Lu Zhou’s face was expressionless, and his eyes were soul-stirring. He stood still, staring at Wen Ruqing. Realization suddenly dawned on him as he said, “The Primordial Star Formation has an owner…”
Lu Zhou walked over as electric arcs continued to flash on his body. He said, “When I created this formation, it was to fortify Grand Mystic Mountain. From the beginning until now, the formation only has one owner: me.”
“…”
Wen Ruqing felt as though something was gripping his heart tightly. He had worked so hard perfecting the formation, but in the end, it was just to benefit others.
Lu Zhou said,”When the cultivation world was in its infancy, I studied countless cultivation techniques. I don’t know when but humans began to categorize cultivation methods into different schools like the schools of Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucian. Nonetheless, they all have the same origins. They came from the ancient world…”
Wen Ruqing continued to stare at Lu Zhou in shock and disbelief.
Lu Zhou’s voice was very low as he continued to say, “Back then, I discussed the Dao with all the cultivators of the world. My avatar has always been different. Who told you that different means evil?”
At this moment, a blue lotus flew out from Lu Zhou’s hand.
Boom!
Wen Ruqing vomited blood. He had thought the Primordial Star Formation could boost his power to that of a divine emperor and at the same time, reduce the Unholy One’s power. He did not expect that not only did the formation not help him, but it even helped the Unholy One. As the saying went, ‘Man proposes, God disposes’.
Wen Ruqing had boasted that he had studied at Grand Mystic Mountain for many years and that he knew the Unholy One. However, in hindsight, the Unholy One had too many incomprehensible secrets and mysteries. In his opinion, the Unholy One hid himself better than Ming Xin did.
Wen Ruqing erected his protective energy again, intending to leave the Primordial Star Formation. However, before he could do so, he heard Lu Zhou’s voice.
“I reign supreme here. Do you think you can leave?” Lu Zhou asked rhetorically.
At this time, Wen Ruqing saw a huge palm seal falling from above. He quickly raised his hand.
Boom!
Wen Ruqing grunted. Half his feet sank into the ground.
Bang!
Lu Zhou waved his hand, pulling Wen Ruqing up from the ground. Then, a magnificent scene appeared.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Lu Zhou’s afterimages filled the space within the formation as he struck. Palm seals after palm seals fell on Wen Ruqing. Each of his attacks was fierce and domineering.
Wen Ruqing had nowhere to hide at all. Her face turned ashen immediately.
When Lu Zhou stopped moving, he hovered in the air above Wen Ruqing. Then, he stomped his foot.
Boom!
Wen Ruqing fell to the ground.
The fight seemed to be over.
The Primordial Star Formation shone faintly. It looked beautiful. Along with the battle, it slowly faded away after completing its mission.
The cool breeze blew away the slight rusty scent of blood.
Lu Zhou landed next to Wen Ruqing like a feather. His face was still expressionless as he looked at Wen Ruqing, who was lying flat on the ground. The blue light in his eyes and the electric arcs disappeared after he ended the Unholy One’s state. He reverted to his original appearance.
Despite the cool and refreshing breeze, every intake of breath that Wen Ruqing took felt as though knives were slashing his throat, bringing him great pain. He gave up resisting. He looked at Lu Zhou, the man he feared from the bottom of his heart, with a calm expression.
