My Disciples Are All Villains

Chapter 308 Old But Energetic

Pan Zhong, Zhou Jifeng, Hua Yuexing, and the female cultivators leaned forward expectantly. They were juniors who were lacking in knowledge and experiences. They would never let such a great opportunity to learn slip through their fingers. The three elders were expectant as well. Their eyes were all trained on Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou continued his stroking beard. He seemed to be thinking.

Hua Wudao waved his hand. “The Six Compatible Seal is the result of my 20 years of research after all. It’s an improvisation based on the Six Seals. To date, I’ve managed to conjure up nine scripts. It can withstand an Eight-leaf expert’s attacks if it’s enhanced by the Eight Trigrams Seal. Every single script has to be formed with the most precise control. It’s as difficult as ascending to the heavens just to form an extra script. One shouldn’t underestimate the scripts of the Six Compatible Seals. When I just joined the Evil Sky Pavilion, with just six scripts, I managed to withstand Duanmu Sheng’s attack that was unleashed with all his might.”

They had witnessed Duanmu Sheng’s Divine One Technique with their own eyes. It was a domineering and terrifyingly powerful spear technique. However, Hua Wudao only needed six scripts to block it.

Pan Zhong wondered aloud, “Elder Hua, what’s the maximum number of scripts that you can manifest?”

“When I created the Six Compatible Seals, ten is the maximum. However, with my own cultivation base and perception, I can only manifest nine scripts.”

“There’s a tenth script?”

“That’s right.”

“Elder Hua, your achievements with the Six Compatible Seal is truly unparalleled.” Pan Zhong and the others were filled with awe.

Regardless of the cultivation method, any new techniques created would require the cultivator to thoroughly master the cultivation method.

Duanmu Sheng’s cultivation base was only in the Two-leaf Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm. It was slightly too early for him to be thinking about creating a new technique. He would, at least, have to wait until he was at the Five-leaf stage or above to create new techniques.

“Elder Hua, how can someone recreate the technique that took you 20 years to create?” Zhou Jifeng said helplessly.

The others nodded as well.

Zhou Jifeng was right. Hua Wudao had spent 20 years to perfect the Six Compatible Seal. Even if the others could understand the theory behind it, it would be difficult to replicate it in a single try.

At this moment, the three elders were inwardly thinking of ways to let Lu Zhou gracefully back out of this.

Hua Wudao regretted his words immensely. He should not have run his mouth and asked the pavilion master to demonstrate the Six Compatible Seal. What was he going to do if he offended the pavilion master? He furtively glanced at Lu Zhou who still seemed to be lost in his thoughts. It seemed like he had to work harder to find a way for Lu Zhou to back out gracefully. He needed something more to save Lu Zhou’s face.

Pan Litian asked, “Old Hua, the limit for the Six Compatible Seal is ten scripts?”

“That’s correct.”

“How many scripts do you think another person can unleash on their first try?” Pan Litian asked.

Yes! They knew they could count on Old Pan to be tactful and come up with a good way out of this situation. This was a high-spec question! They had found a way out of this situation that could potentially become awkward!

Hua Wudao hastily replied, “When I was still with the Yun Sect, my sect master spent three days to unleash the first script, ten days for the second, and a month for the third. Then, there were no new scripts for a year. The sect master didn’t have time to study it further so he eventually gave up.” Most people would only study his tortoiseshell method out of curiosity. Nobody would spend 20 years on it like he did.

“Ah, then does this mean no one else, apart from you, can manifest more than four scripts?”

“Indeed.”

“What is the tenth script?”

“Combination.” Since no one could manifest it, Hua Wudao had no qualms about revealing this. He thought to himself, ‘This… this should be enough to defuse the situation, right?’

Since nobody else was able to do it, it was only normal if the pavilion master could not do it.

Hua Wudao was about to change the topic when Lu Zhou suddenly flew out and left the gazebo. He walked on air with his hands on his back to the area above the field at a speed that was neither fast nor slow.

Lu Zhou’s expression was calm. He had made up his mind. As the great patriarch of the Evil Sky Pavilion, how could he allow the slightest blemish on his pride and dignity? Lu Zhou unleashed some Primal Qi. It was only in the Divine Court realm. However, due to his confidence and composure, no one dared to underestimate him. In fact, they were even fearfully respectful of him.

Everyone’s attention was focused on Lu Zhou as he continued to walk forward.

At this moment, a radiant circle appeared beneath his feet.

“Eight Trigrams Seal! It’s an Eight Trigrams Seal!” Zhou Jifeng exclaimed in shock.

When Lu Zhou took another step forward, the radiant circle shone even brighter.

The Six Compatible Seal appeared!

Lu Zhou had access to a millennium of Ji Tiandao’s memories after all. The unrivaled experience and knowledge were displayed without any restraint at this moment.

The three elders stared at Lu Zhou unblinkingly.

Next, it was time to form the scripts.

Lu Zhou was not Hua Wudao, after all. Trying to use the skill, based on his experience and knowledge, was not enough. He turned to look at the others from above.

Whizz!

The first golden script, the ‘Heaven’ script appeared.

Zhou Jifeng and Pan Zhong looked on with an expression of reverence on their faces.

Lu Zhou waved his right arm.

The second script, the ‘Earth’ script appeared.

When Lu Zhou unleashed the second script, he looked at everyone. He was pleased with the effect.

Zhou Jifeng, Pan Zhong, and the others were looking at him reverently. Even the three elders seemed to be impressed as they looked at him expectantly.

In truth, when Lu Zhou unleashed the second script, he felt that he was already at his limit. After all, his cultivation base was only in the Divine Court realm. He thought it should be enough for him to manifest two scripts of the Six Compatible Seal. ‘Why are they still looking at me expectantly? Why aren’t they telling me to come down?’

Lu Zhou waved his left arm.

Whizz!

His Primal Qi fluctuated again. Clearly, it was not as stable as before.

The third script appeared, the ‘Birth’ circled around him.

Without prior study, he managed to conjure up to the third script with theoretical knowledge alone in such a short time, it was obvious Lu Zhou had overwhelmingly defeated the Sect Master of the Yun Sect in regard to talent.

As for the fourth script… Lu Zhou did not think it would be possible to manifest it.

However, in their awe, the three elders seemed to have completely forgotten to give Lu Zhou a way to back out gracefully. They were still looking at him with an expectant expression on their faces.

‘Forget it. It’s fine if I fail to manifest the fourth script.’

Lu Zhou stood on air as he circulated all of the Primal Qi in his sea of Qi. When the Primal Qi burst forth, he suddenly felt the Primal Qi in his surroundings surge.

‘Am I going to crash?’ It was practically impossible for him to manifest the fourth script with his Divine Court realm cultivation base. He frowned slightly. ‘What should I do?’

At this moment, Hua Wudao finally regained his senses. He hastily said, “That’s amazing, Pavilion Master! I’m thoroughly impressed!” Leng Luo chimed in, “To be able to manifest three scripts of the Six Compatible Seal in such a short period of time, your skills are truly unparalleled.”

The old men in the Kiss-Ass Pavilion finally gave Lu Zhou a way out.

It was finally time for Lu Zhou to back out. However, he discovered the fourth script was in the midst of manifesting. He… could not seem to stop it. He foresaw the fourth script failing to stabilize, and his Primal Qi would scatter, causing him to fall. Lu Zhou pushed out with his palm. His mind was clear at this moment. A unique and peculiar power surged out. The Eight Trigrams Seal under his feet shone dazzlingly compared to before. The scripts, Heaven, Earth, and Life, had been shining with a golden light before this. However, at this moment, the light from the scripts turned blue!
