My Disciples Are All Villains

Chapter 389: Slash Again

Initially, Lu Zhou planned to wait for Ba Ma to appear before killing Ba Ma with a Deadly Strike Card. However, after he considered the current situation, he realized Ba Ma’s preparation had exceeded his expectations. This was not as simple as forfeiting 200 years of life, Ba Ma had practically given all his life for these puppets. If another Eight-leaf puppet were to appear, there was no doubt that Ba Ma had already given his life.

Although Kong Yuan was nothing but a corpse now, his affinity with the prayer bead still existed. He seemed to be able to sense the prayer beads’ location as he charged at Xu Jing and the others. His huge black avatar resembled a meteor in the air.

Leng Luo retreated with Xu Jing and the others. They landed behind the boulder. The person who stood before them was none other than Lu Zhou who looked calm and indifferent since the beginning. They wondered what method the pavilion master to block the terrifying Fiend Zen attack. Regardless, they could only trust him.

Everyone looked up at Kong Yuan.

Lu Zhou flipped his wizened hand. The item that materialized in his hand was not a Deadly Strike Card… Instead, it was Unnamed. Unnamed was emitting a faint blue and purple light. It was the Heavenly Writing scrolls’ extraordinary power. The instant the black Fiend Zen avatar was upon him, he activated the power of past lives.

Lu Zhou swung his sword forcefully. From the lower-left corner, Unnamed drew a diagonal line to the upper-right corner.

Zing!

It was a simple and direct move, like a mere mortal swinging his arm. However, the air seemed to freeze over.

To everyone’s surprise, the black Fiend Zen avatar cracked as though it was as fragile as a sheet of paper.

If the Sword Devil, Yu Shangrong, had witnessed this, what would his thoughts be? He only managed to cut the Fiend Zen avatar down after unleashing all his strength and techniques. And yet, his master cleaved it in two with just a casual swing of his hand. How was this even logical?

When the avatar disintegrated, the cultivator would usually be heavily injured as well. Kong Yuan was already dead. When his avatar was sliced open, black power leaked out as he reeled back. However, shortly after, he lunged at Lu Zhou again. A corpse had nothing to fear.

Lu Zhou said disapprovingly, “How futile!”

“Originating from nothing, but coming from everything. Living in samsara… I’ll send you into samsara with this strike.”

Kong Yuan shot toward them. He attempted to tackle the frail-looking old man with his tough body.

Bzzt!

The purple mist seemed to freeze in the air.

Suddenly, a purple mist shot out from the forest. A soundwave rolled out into the surroundings. “Restriction!”

The people of the Evil Sky Pavilion were shocked. They looked at the mist around them. The mist formed a huge net that cut off all their possible routes. The puppets on land did not relent in their attempts to attack them.

Ba Ma finally appeared. “I’ll exchange my life for a shackle from which no being will be able to escape from. Die!”

Kong Yuan was upon Lu Zhou.

“Pavilion Master, look out!” Hua Wudao wanted to rush over and activate his Six Compatible Seal, but he was too late.

Lu Zhou glanced at Ba Ma who was hovering above the scene. He nodded in satisfaction. ‘Finally, he shows himself.’

At this moment, Lu Zhou chose to use an Impeccable Card. This time, the Buddha Golden Body did not appear. Instead, a ten-script Six Compatible Seal appeared. He stood on the Eight Trigrams, and the ten scripts on his body shot out swiftly as they expanded. Heaven, earth, life, death, water, fire, being, non-being, and separation.

Bam!

The purple mist that initially shrouded the Evil Sky Pavilion was instantly scattered by the terrifying ten-script Six Compatible Seal.

Hua Wudao looked up, speechless. Was this still his Six Compatible Seal? Was this the Daoist Seal that he studied and created?

Each script was an individual attack. Apart from the round shield, there were energy seals formed by the ten scripts that struck at Kong Yuan precisely. The ten scripts spun and landed ten consecutive strikes.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Kong Yuan managed to hold his own when the first three scripts struck him. However, when the fourth to the sixth script hit him, he fell backward. When the ninth script struck, his body was blown up into pieces. By the tenth strike, his ashes had already scattered in the air.

Perhaps, Lu Zhou was lucky. Usually, the Impeccable Cards were more defense-oriented.

Kong Yuan who had been on collision course with the ten scripts finally died.

‘If I can kill you once, I can kill you twice.’

A shocked expression appeared on Ba Ma’s face. “You’re not affected by the Restriction?”

Lu Zhou glanced at the purple mist. He did not waste words with Ba Ma. He brought his left hand up, and a Deadly Strike Card appeared in his palm. A miniature vortex spun in an anti-clockwise direction.

“I’ve been waiting for you.” Lu Zhou had never loathed witchcraft as much as he did today. He was filled with so much loathing that he did not even want to waste another word.

Ba Ma widened his eyes. He sensed the alarming and terrifying power in Lu Zhou’s palm. He said hoarsely, “In that case, let’s die together…” Instead of retreating, he advanced. He charged toward Lu Zhou with the purple mist.

Lu Zhou did not fear Ba Ma. Up until now, he had not activated his Critical Block Card. Even without using the Heavenly Writing’s powers, Ba Ma could not do anything against him. However, Ba Ma, naturally, had no way of knowing that his enemy was a terrifying individual who was armed with all kinds of trump cards.

10 seconds passed in a blink of an eye.

The ten-script Six Compatible Seal vanished.

The Deadly Strike Card replaced the Six Compatible Seal and launched forward.

The Sole Diamond Seal, the Great Blitz Treasure Seal, the Magic Gourd Seal, the Sun Moon Seal. These seals corresponded with the Power, Energy, Harmony, Healing, Intuition, Awareness, Dimension, Creation, and Absoluteness. The packed scripts surrounded the great seal.

The others held their breaths at the sight of this. Although this was the second time they saw Lu Zhou unleashing this skill, they were still in awe and disbelief.

One of the great palm seals of the Daoist Sect collided with Ba Ma like a normal attack.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Similar to Kong Yuan, Ba Ma resisted obstinately. When the eighth palm seal struck his body, something different happened. The mist around him scattered. His face was illuminated by the radiance of the Nine Cuts Hand Seal.

At this moment, everyone saw Ba Ma’s appearance. From his forehead to his chin, every inch of his face was covered in cuts. The edges of his eyes had been cut as well. Blood was trickling out of his seven orifices.

At this moment, it felt as though time itself had stopped.

“Ding! Killed a target. Reward: 2,000 merit points.”

When he heard this notification, Lu Zhou knew that Ba Ma was dead. However, Ba Ma had cultivated his own body to continue attacking even after his death, similar to his puppets.

Lu Zhou thought about using the Great Seal of Fearlessness to grind Ba Ma into dust just to tie up loose ends.

When the ninth palm seal struck his heart, Ba Ma’s eyes were filled with incredulity. However, he was no longer breathing.

“A blood-cultivated body…” Leng Luo reminded Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou shook his head. He stepped forward and said confidently, “If I can slice you once, I can slice you again.”
