“Stalemate?”

“It doesn’t look like a stalemate… The Pillar of Impermanence seems frozen,” Kong Wen said, “In any case, Pavilion Master is trying to subdue this infinite-grade object. Otherwise, he could’ve easily destroyed it…”

Everyone nodded. One of them dared to say such confident words, and the others dared to believe it.

Lu Li added, “You have a point. The Pavilion Master is a Venerable Master all. I’m sure he has his ways. Back then…”

Yan Zhenluo coughed and nudged Lu Li. He had grown tired of hearing the words ‘back then’ and ‘my ancestor’. Only a friend like him could endure it. The others would not be able to endure it at all.

Back in the sky, a strong vortex churning with vitality energy appeared in Lu Zhou’s palm, stirring up the wind.

The Pillar of Impermanence struggled violently as though it wanted to give up.

Lu Zhou probed his blue avatar. It has grown several times again. It did not take long before he heard a crisp sound from his Dantian’s sea of Qi.

“Ding! Upgrade successful!”

“Ding! Hundreds Tribulation avatar. Next upgrade will require 10,000 years of life.”

Before the Pillar of Impermanence could do any damage, it had lost 15,000 years of life. How could it be willing? It began to struggle even more violently.

However, how could Lu Zhou let it act as it pleased? Although the lifespan the pillar had absorbed when they were in the ancient formation had been returned, it still held a huge number of years. There were also 5,000 years of life from Ye Wei’s sacred relic and 200 or more Reversal Cards. With the boost from the ancient formation, it should have absorbed at least 100,000 years.

Thinking about his blue avatar, Lu Zhou felt more relaxed.

“Don’t even think about leaving…” Lu Zhou said before ignoring it.

An hour later…

Lu Zhou felt that the blue avatar had absorbed enough vitality energy.

A ring of light appeared at the waist of the blue avatar and dropped down.

Swoosh!

“???”

Lu Zhou was shocked when he saw a leaf sprouting. It sprouted as soon as one ring of light fell. As someone who had experienced sprouting leaves so many times, he knew it was impossible to sprout a leaf when the circle of light had only dropped once. It seemed since he had evolved his avatar before, the upgrading of the second avatar was just a quick run-through.

Something stirred in his mind at this moment, but he could not quite put his fingers on it.

“Ding! Upgrade successful!”

“Ding! One Leaf Hundred Tribulations avatar. Sprouting the second leaf will require 10,000 years.”

Fortunately, the years required to upgrade the blue avatar did not increase.

Finally, Lu Zhou glanced at the Pillar of Impermanence and asked, “Are you convinced?”

At this time, the pillar began to peel as though it was shedding black skin. After the black ‘skin’ peeled off, it was now bronze and slightly textured.

Lu Zhou frowned.

The black ‘skin’ floated in the air and turned into glowing black symbols.

“Its spirituality has vanished!” Kong Wen exclaimed.

“Then isn’t it useless now?”

“No,” Kong Wen said, “It’s the exact opposite. The spirituality of the Pillar of Impermanence was given by its master. As long as the spirituality of its previous master doesn’t vanish, it’d be impossible to subdue it. Now that its spirituality has disappeared, the Pavilion Master only has to inject some of his spirituality into it and subdue it!”

Yan Zhenluo asked, “How do you inject your spirituality?”

“Uh, this…” This question was beyond Kong Wen’s knowledge. However, he had spoken with the air of a wise man that it would be awkward and embarrassing if he said he did not know now.

Fortunately, at this moment, Lu Wu said, “Giving it a basic spirituality only needed a drop of one’s blood. A higher spirituality would come with more emotions. This requires one to keep it by one’s side all year round and to nurture it with one’s aura…”

Everyone nodded.

Mingshi Yin glanced at Lu Wu and said, “To think the knowledge of a group of people is inferior to…”

“What?” Lu Wu lowered its head.

“… to a beast emperor…”

Lu Wu scoffed. “When I was roaming the lands, you rep… you weak humans were still your mothers’ wombs…”

No one was able to refute Lu Wu’s words. It was the truth.

After the Pillar of Impermanence’s spirituality was stripped away, it became still.

Then, Lu Zhou dismissed his blue avatar and did not allow it to continue absorbing the vitality energy. He needed to figure out how many years the Pillar of Impermanence contained first. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if the blue avatar absorbed all the years and turned the pillar into scrap metal.

Lu Zhou tightened his grip slightly. There was no reaction from the Pillar of Impermanence at all.

“Hmm?” Soon after, Lu Zhou recalled the drop of blood earlier. It was probably blocked by the pillar’s spirituality earlier. He immediately pricked his finger and let a drop of blood drip onto the Pillar of Impermanence.

As soon as the blood dropped on the Pillar of Impermanence, it glowed like the setting sun for a moment before the light vanished. Then, it returned to looking like how an inanimate object would look.

“Ding! Subdued the infinite-grade Pillar of Impermanence. Ability: Vitality of the Universe.”

“Ding! Vitality of the Universe: gathering the vitality energy from all living things within a radius of 100 miles.”

Lu Zhou was delighted that he finally got what he wanted. He tightened his grip around the Pillar of Impermanence before he probed with his consciousness. He was surprised to discover that it held a space that seemed as vast as the ocean deep within it. He could sense a huge amount of vitality energy in the inner space of the Pillar of Impermanence.

Lu Zhou withdrew his consciousness after a moment. Now was not the time to study the Pillar of Impermanence. With just a thought, the Pillar of Impermanence vanished. As it turned out, infinite-grade items like the Pillar of Impermanence could be controlled by his thoughts alone just like Unnamed.

Upon seeing this, the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion were overjoyed. They bowed one after another.

“Congratulations, Pavilion Master, for successfully subduing the Pillar of Impermanence!”

“Congratulations, master, for subduing the Pillar of Impermanence!”

Lu Zhou flew across the lake and looked at everyone before he said, “You’ve all worked hard.”

“It’s our duty,” Kong Wen said.

Lu Zhou pointed at the lake and said, “Too many people know about Transient City, and there’s an ancient formation there. However, the environment is good here. We’ll rest somewhere nearby.”

“Yes!” Everyone bowed.

Lu Zhou took the lead and flew toward the lake again.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Everyone followed closely behind.

Before long, they arrived at the side of a mountain. The place was by the mountain and not too far from the lake. It was indeed a good place.

Even with Lu Wu’s huge body, it could find places to hide here at the foot of the mountain. In fact, this place made Lu Wu seem like it was normal size while the humans were the size of an ant.

Lu Zhou had indeed chosen a good place.

At this time, Lu Zhou looked at everyone and asked, “Is there any problem with your lifespans?”

Everyone shook their heads.

“Not only do we not have a problem, but it seems like we’ve gained a little from the Pillar of Impermanence as well. I feel very energetic now…” Yan Zhenluo said.

“Alright.” Lu Zhou nodded before he said, “I’ll use this place to create a new place for cultivation. I’ll limit the range to a kilometer. Remember to cultivate diligently…”

Everyone was delighted by these words. “Yes!”

Lu Zhou raised his right hand. The golden Pillar of Impermanence floated above his palm. Then, he pushed his hand out.

The golden Pillar of Impermanence flew out and stabbed into the ground. It thrummed before it began to generate a vortex.

Under Lu Zhou’s control, the pillar’s effect was limited to only a kilometer.

With this, a new and small holy land of cultivation had been formed.
