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 . ”
