Chapter 1815: Unique Opponents
The Unholy One’s words rang true, causing Ming Xin to be slightly angry. He did not respond to Lu Zhou’s words. Instead, he said, “Zui Can, Hua Zhenghong, and Wen Ruqing, the three Supremes of the Sacred Temple, contributed greatly to the Great Void. If you kill them, you’re going against me.”
Lu Zhou pointed at the light at the top of the Tower of Heaven and said, “Those who betray the sect, their masters, or teachers deserve to die, and that includes you.”
A sword energy shot to the top of the Tower of Heaven.
Bam!
The Tower of Heaven was unaffected.
Ming Xin had once cultivated at Grand Mystic Mountain, but he did not formally join the sect. In the Great Void, very few people know about Ming Xin’s origins. Even Lu Zhou did not know a lot.
Ming Xin’s talent in cultivation was not inferior to Lu Zhou’s ten disciples. His cultivation was a mystery. Even the Unholy One of the past did not have a proper fight with Ming Xin so Lu Zhou was not quite sure about Ming Xin’s cultivation as well.
None of the ten halls of the Great Void could shake Ming Xin’s position. Even Zhi Guanji, the Black Emperor; Chi Biaonu, the Scarlet Emperor; Ling Weiyang, the Azure Emperor; and Bai Zhaoju, the White Emperor had to leave the Great Void, their homeland. These were signs that Ming Xin was much more powerful than the average divine emperor.
Ming Xin chuckled. “So you’re finally willing to admit that I’m a student of Grand Mystic Mountain?”
Although Lu Zhou had no recollection of accepting Ming Xin as a student, he still said, “Are you worthy?”
Ming Xin, on the other side of the Sky Encompassing Mirror, clenched his hands again. He said through gritted teeth, “You’re right. I’m not worthy.”
Si Wuya could not help but notice at this moment, Ming Xin’s tone was not as lofty as it was when he spoke usually. He could not help but wonder about what happened between his master and Ming Xin.
Then, Ming Xin raised his voice slightly and said, “I have more important things to do. If you want to fight with me, you’ll have to go through that.”
Ming Xin waved his hand casually.
The tip of the Tower of Heaven lit up immediately.
Many Templars stepped back and looked at the tip of the Tower of Heaven in shock. Now that Guan Jiu was not around, they seemed to have lost their backbones. They did not know if they should go forward or not.
Lu Zhou looked at the Tower of Heaven, puzzled. He heightened his senses, trying to sense Ming Xin’s location. Alas, he found nothing.
Boom!
A streak of energy shot out from the tip of the Tower of Heaven and landed on the ground.
Everyone looked down.
Lu Zhou was slightly confused.
Lines lit up on the ground and weaved into a strange and unique symbol.
After thinking for a long time, Lu Zhou still did not recognize the symbol. In his eyes, the symbol looked like a distorted Chinese character or even some kind of alien writing.
Crack!
A hand suddenly broke out of the ground, shocking everyone.
“Retreat!”
The Templars finally chose to retreat. They did not dare to make an enemy out of Lu Zhou. Moreover, there was also the Tower of Heaven.
The Sacred Temple had once passed down a death order; anyone that approached the Tower of Heaven would be killed without exception. For tens of thousands of years, the Tower of Heaven was guarded by mysterious experts. They were not the Four Supremes of the Sacred Temple, the Templars, or anyone from the ten halls of the Great Void. Many experts tried to get close to the Tower of Heaven to study it, but all of them were killed by the mysterious experts. No one knew who these mysterious experts were.
Lu Zhou frowned slightly when he saw the outstretched arm that was like the bark of a dead tree. “Reanimation technique?”
This reminded Lu Zhou of witchcraft.
In the past, Grand Mystic Mountain forbade its members from practicing witchcraft. This was because the Unholy One loathed witchcraft and also because witchcraft went against morality and nature and had a lack of respect for the dead. Grand Mystic Mountain was dedicated to pursuing eternal life and rebirths, not reanimating corpses.
Crack!
Another hand emerged from the ground. It was clearly different from the first one.
The Templars’ hearts thumped loudly in their chests. They had long lost their aura as Templars.
Boom!
All of a sudden, two figures shot out of the ground with a loud bang.
Lu Zhou looked at the two figures carefully.
The one on the left had a small head and a huge body. Its skin was like tree bark, and it had four wings and one eye. Its body was muscular, and its color abnormal as well.
The one on the right was headless, and it held a huge ax in its hand.
“What are these things?!”
“These two things are the ones that guarded the Tower of Heaven?”
The Templars were in shock and disbelief. They were horrified by what they were seeing.
At this moment, Lu Zhou frowned and called out, “Kua Fu, Xing Tian?”
On the right was Kua Fu, the famous ancient god.
Xing Tian, the ancient god of war, was on the right.
…
Si Wuya, who saw this from the Sky Encompassing Mirror, was surprised as well. He sighed emotionally. “Two ancient gods… This…”
Ming Xin said, “Kua Fu overestimated himself and wanted to catch the sun. In the process of chasing the sun, he got so thirsty that he drank from all the rivers he encountered. However, it was not enough to quench his thirst so he went to the Great Lake. Alas, he died before he reached the Great Lake.”
After a beat, Ming Xin continued to say, “Xing Tian, the god of war, defied the heavens, and the heavens decapitated his head. His head was buried in Chang Yang Mountain. However, he was unwilling to give up so he used his nipples as eyes and his navel as his mouth.”

“The two of them died with unfulfilled wishes. Today, I will fulfill their wishes…”
With that, Ming Xin put away the Sky Encompassing Mirror. Then, he turned to look at Si Wuya and asked, “Between the two ancient gods and the Unholy One, who do you think is better?”
“…”
…
In front of the Tower of Heaven.
Lu Zhou also did not expect the Sacred Temple that was widely respected would stoop so low and use the deceased. At this moment, he discovered that Kua Fu and Xing Tian’s eyes were locked onto him as though they had found their target.
Xing Tian’s ax was already raised and aimed at Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou looked at the Tower of Heaven and said, “The weak will always be weak.”
As soon as Lu Zhou’s voice fell, Kua Fu rushed into the sky with his huge body. His fists seemed capable of shaking the sky as he flew toward Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou pushed his astrolabe out.
Boom!
The Templars were shocked.
“He charged against the astrolabe directly?! How powerful!
Without saying another word, Kua Fu smashed his fist at Lu Zhou again. It was clear that Lu Zhou was his only target.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Kua Fu’s fists moved swiftly, tearing the space as he swung it out.
The tears in the space mended very quickly.
The sound of fists whistling in the air as it was swung out spread through the Sacred Region, causing everyone’s eardrums to hurt.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Lu Zhou retreated a distance away before he pushed his hand out.
Boom!
The astrolabe sent Kua Fu flying back with a huge force.
At this time, Xing Tian leaped into the sky and joined the fray with his ax. As he brandished his ax, the ax flickered with a strange light that left cracks in the space.
Upon seeing this, Lu Zhou put away his astrolabe and used the great power of teleportation. He reappeared behind Xing Tian and struck with his palm.
Boom!
Xing Tian fell to the ground, flattening several buildings.
Kua Fu charged over again with his fists that shattered the space. His raw strength was astonishing.
“Laws?” Lu Zhou sensed the power of the laws from Kua Fu and quickly launched a few mountain-like palm seals.
While Kua Fu fought Lu Zhou, Xing Tian naturally would not stay idle. He rose to his feet and flew up into the sky again.
The trio engaged in a fierce battle, and the surroundings of the Tower of Heaven instantly turned into ruins.
“…”
The Templars retreated again. Needless to say, they only watched the battle and did not participate in it.
The area hundreds of miles in front of the Tower of Heaven became a battlefield.
Energy seals sailed in the air from time to time as enormous eye-catching figures leaped everywhere in the sky.
It was difficult to tell who had the upper hand in the battle.
…
Two hours later, the Templars saw a shocking scene.
“The Unholy One!”
Lu Zhou flew high up into the sky. His eyes glowed blue as the blue lotus bloomed under his feet; he had used the divine Dao power. His current cultivation had now surpassed the Unholy One from before. He could now easily assume the air of the Unholy One and defeat his opponent with a strength more powerful than the Unholy One of the past.
Lu Zhou’s blue eyes swept across all living things as his long hair and robe fluttered in the wind.
Roar!
The ancient Dragon Soul’s roar reverberated in the sky.
The powerful roar intimidated the Templars, causing them to stagger backward. They were filled with the urge to prostrate themselves at this moment.
Lu Zhou swooped down and launched dozens of palm seals formed from the divine Dao power toward Kua Fu, whose body was as tough as a divine weapon.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Lu Zhou forcefully pressed Kua Fu to the ground.
Kua Fu finally cried out. He raised his head and glared at Lu Zhou.
At this time, Xing Tian swung his ax at Lu Zhou. Every time he swung his ax, the space would tear.
Lu Zhou used his great power of teleportation and flashed back and forth. When he appeared next to Xing Tian, he struck downward with his hand.
Bang!
When Xing Tian swung his ax, he was suddenly restrained by the great law. With that, a streak of light suddenly shot out of its navel.
Lu Zhou reacted quickly and brought his astrolabe out.
Bang!
Lu Zhou flew backward. The space around him shattered. Through the cracks, he saw darkness.
Kua Fu leaped up again and attacked from the other side, forming a pincer attack with Xing Tian.
Lu Zhou, who was being attacked on both sides, unleashed countless energy seals.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Upon hearing the buzzing noises that were not from the battles, everyone looked up curiously. They saw a pillar of light at the top of the Tower of Heaven. The pillar was connected to the patterns in the sky before it formed a barrier to block the shockwaves from the battle.
Lu Zhou’s divine Dao power suppressed the two ancient gods as he attacked them in a frenzy. As expected, Kua Fu and Xing Tian fell to the ground.
As soon as the duo landed, Lu Zhou raised his hand and called out, “Unnamed!”
However, nothing appeared in Lu Zhou’s hand.
“…”
Lu Zhou had forgotten that Unnamed was still in the abyss. He dropped his hand and thought to himself, ‘What a pity! If I had Unnamed, it’d be easier to deal with these two ancient gods…’
With this, Lu Zhou had no choice but to change tactics. He took a step forward.
Three sun disks appeared immediately, lighting up Sacred City. They were so big that they easily covered the Tower of Heaven and the areas in its surroundings.
The sun disks quickly attracted the attention of the cultivators in the distance. All of them stopped what they were doing and watched from afar.
“Sun disks!”
The Templars retreated again.
Then, three dazzling moon disks that surged with power appeared.
Kua Fu and Xing Tian roared and ran on the ground toward the light disks.
At this moment, three star disks appeared next to the six light disks from before. Following that, the nine light disks descended from the sky.
Kua Fu and Xing Tian advanced instead of retreating, ramming their shoulders against the light disks.
Boom!
The ancient formation protecting the Tower of Heaven shattered.
Although the hundreds of Templars had already prepared themselves, they were still sent flying by the merciless divine Dao power. Without exception, all of them spat out blood. Their Dantians’ seas of Qi churned crazily as intense pain from their internal organs assaulted them.
On the other hand, the cultivators in the distance hurriedly closed their eyes. They no longer dared to look at the blindingly bright light disks.
Only when the light dimmed did they look up again. They saw the nine light disks pressing down on Kua Fu and Xing Tian.
Lu Zhou said in a deep voice, “You’re no longer of this world so you shouldn’t stay here. I’ll send you on your way.”
Kua Fu roared and struggled as his body suddenly grew bigger.
As for Xing Tian, he kept hacking at the light disks with his ax in a frenzy. At the same time, his voice rang out from his navel. ‘I’ll defy the heavens! I won’t leave until I win! I’ll fight with my life! I won’t rest until I die!”
Lu Zhou said, “Your life has already ended.”
“No!” Xing Tiang denied it. He was tenacious in his belief.
At the same time, Kua Fu’s eyes shone with a red light as he said, “I’ll kill you!”
