Chapter 1661: Light Disk

Ming Xin said, “What I want is someone who can support heaven and earth. Only the owners of the Great Void Seeds can become supreme beings that everyone respects.”

Hua Zhenghong, Wen Ruqing, and Guan Jiu looked at each other and nodded. It was difficult not to worry after the collapse of the Pillars of Destruction at Dunzang and Chifenruo. It was normal that Ming Xin was worried as well. It was likely he was in rush to stop the consequences of the collapse from worsening.

“Go,” Ming Xin said.

The trio replied in unison, “Understood.”

Not long after the trio left, a streak of light appeared above the Sacred Temple and flew in the direction of Grand Mystic Mountain like a shooting star.

…

Grand Mystic Mountain.

A figure hovered in the air and looked down, slightly surprised by the changes at Grand Mystic Mountain. He did not move and only quietly observed his surroundings.

The eight mountains had collapsed, the Grand Mystic Hall had disappeared, and the peak of the main mountain was bare. The once majestic and glorious buildings had disappeared without a trace. Even the ancient formation had disappeared.

Birds and beasts flew and ran freely in Grand Mystic Mountain. The energy here was the same as the outside world, indicating the barrier from the formation was gone.

After a moment, he flew over to a circular pit on the ground. There was still the smell of wine lingering in the air. He looked at the human-shaped smudge in the pit silently and calmly. There were no changes in his expression or aura at all. After a moment, his eyes swept across the eight destroyed mountains before he murmured to himself, “So they were hidden under the mountains?”

The Sacred Temple had searched Grand Mystic Mountain many times in the past. They even dug very deep into the ground to find the power cores during their searches. Alas, all their attempts were in vain. At that time, he had thought that if the power cores were at Grand Mystic Mountain, the Scales of Justice would have tilted in this direction. However, why did the Scales of Justice never point here?

Ming Xin did not dwell on the question for long. After looking at the horizon, he flashed and vanished into thin air.

…

A huge circle of light appeared in the sky above the Endless Ocean. It was as though the sky had opened its eye as a beam of light shot out. Shortly after the light disappeared, Ming Xin descended from the circle of light.

Ming Xin placed his hands on his back as he walked on the surface of the sea. It was as though he was looking for something. Whenever he stopped, he would look around.

Splash!

Countless sea beasts leaped out of the sea toward Ming Xin with their bloody mouths open. Just as they were about to reach him, a jade-green energy burst forth from his body, sweeping out like a wave.

Boom!

All of the sea beasts were instantly killed with just one move. Pieces of their carcasses fell back into the sea as their blood dyed the water red.

The smell of blood that lingered in the air did not affect Ming Xin at all. He continued to walk a few more steps before he looked down at the sea. Then, he said, “Come out.”

After an unknown amount of time had passed, a colossal dark shadow began to surface from the bottom of the sea. As it drew closer and closer to the surface, the sea began to surge.

Ming Xin did not move. He only watched quietly as the dark figure surfaced.

Splash!

The colossal beast emerged from the sea like a huge cruise ship, covering the sun and causing the seawater to surge violently.

Ming Xin raised his head. What appeared in front of him was the eye of the colossal beast. Its eye was like a black hole in the universe.

Ming Xin looked at the eye and asked bluntly, “He’s back, isn’t he?”

The colossal beast did not answer.

Ming Xin turned to look in the direction of the Great Void and said, “I need an answer from you.”

The colossal sea beast moved, stirring up waves that were more than 30,000 feet tall. It let out a low cry before it began to descend to the bottom of the sea. Its movements alone seemed enough to cause a tsunami in the eastern part of the Endless Ocean.

Ming Xin did not stop it from leaving. He stood on the surface of the sea for a long time.

The sun rose and fell many times before Ming Xin’s figure finally flashed away.

…

Xuanyi Palace.

Lu Zhou sat cross-legged in the Dao hall. After returning to Xuanyi Palace, he had been stabilizing his cultivation. The energy in his body had also gradually stabilized.

He looked at his remaining lifespan. Adding his previous 150,000 years, he had about 1.15 million years of life now. He wondered if the Unholy One had stored so much vitality energy at Grand Mystic Mountain to upgrade the blue avatar?

Lu Zhou’s cultivation followed the Unholy One’s cultivation path. His blue avatar needed a large amount of lifespan to upgrade. After consuming 100,000 years of life, the blue avatar only had 12 Birth Charts. There were still another 24 Birth Charts to go. One could imagine how much lifespan he would need to activate the remaining 24 Birth Charts.

According to the Unholy One, the final four Birth Charts were the most difficult to activate. Perhaps, even a million years would not be enough.

“Forget it. Let’s take it one step at a time,” Lu Zhou said as he shook his head, dismissing his thoughts.

Then, Lu Zhou flicked his sleeve, bringing out his sun disk.

The sun disk illuminated the hall immediately.

After becoming a supreme being, one would gain a light disk. There were three types of light disks: the sun disk, the moon disk, and the star disk. Each of the disks could open three paths.

The sun disk was strong, the moon disk was gentle, and the star disk was beautiful. Their powers could be increased with the laws.

“I only managed to activate the final four Birth Charts and form the sun disk thanks to the four power cores. What’s the power core exactly?”

Lu Zhou put away the sun disk and brought his lotus out. He looked at the final four Birth Charts on his lotus seat; they were like four nebulas floating in the vast universe. He could keenly sense the force from the power cores that was vastly different from the life hearts.

Then, he looked at the bottom of the lotus. The distinctive column at the bottom and the triangles on it emitted a sense of danger.

At this moment, a voice rang from outside.

“Old sir, can we talk?”

Lu Zhou put away his lotus and said, “Come in.”

Shang Zhang entered the Dao hall. He had already returned to his original appearance now, no longer concealing his aura and majesty as a divine emperor. However, there was a worried expression on his face. When he arrived in front of Lu Zhou, he said with a hint of complaint in his voice, “It’s been a few days, but Conch still refuses to see me. Old sir, can you put in a good word for me?”

“…”

Lu Zhou felt rather speechless. ‘This Shang Zhang is truly shameless for his daughter’s sake. He only cares about his daughter and nothing else.’

Finally, Lu Zhou asked, “Do you think Conch is stupid?”

“What do you mean?”

“You’ve been too obvious lately. Conch might have already guessed your identity before this, but she didn’t expose you,” Lu Zhou said.

Shang Zhang’s eyes lit up immediately as soon as he heard Lu Zhou’s words. “Does this mean I can still continue to be an attendant?”

“…”

‘Are you addicted to being an attendant?’

“What I mean is that at the very least, she doesn’t hate you,” Lu Zhou explained.

Shang Zhang sighed. “I’d rather she hates me. It worries me even more when she’s so indifferent.”

“The one who ties the knot has to untie the knot. Forgive me for not being able to help you with this matter,” Lu Zhou said.
