My Disciples Are All Villains
chapter-1451

“It seems like the effect of staying in the ancient formations is better than I imagined.”

Lu Zhou thought the time spent in the ancient formations would affect his subsequent cultivation. He did not expect that not only did the ancient formations not affect him, but it even stabilized his cultivation base greatly.

After all, accelerated cultivation was like a seedling that was pulled out to help it grow. Although it was fast, it would be extremely unstable. However, that was clearly not the case with his time in the ancient formations. When the time slowed down, it canceled out all the negative effects of the accelerated

time in the beginning.

Lu Zhou put away the Fire Phoenix’s life heart before he looked at his Birth Palace. After confirming there were no abnormalities, he brought the Pillar of Impermanence out. He stabbed it into the ground in front of him.

Lu Zhou could not help but laugh when he saw the Pillar of Impermanence resembled the golden cudgel of the mythical Monkey King from earth. Unfortunately, his days on earth were nothing more than memories now.

Lu Zhou waved his hand, bringing out the blue avatar.

Its strength was very good considering it only had one Birth Chart now.

Lu Zhou did not lack life hearts. During their time in the Unknown Land, he had accumulated too many life hearts. What he lacked was lifespan.

Each activation of Birth Chart would cost 10,000 years. If he wanted to activate all 36 Birth Charts, he would need 360,000 years of life. This was not a small number. Fortunately, he had the Pillar of Impermanence so he could slowly store lifespan and life force in there.

Lu Zhou flicked his wrist, bringing the lotus to him so he could look at the Birth Palace.

He brought a life heart out from the Vast Sky Bag and embedded it into the Birth Palace.

With his experience with the golden avatar, he had an easier time with the blue avatar. Unlike the Fire Phoenix’s life heart, he was not going to pull out the life heart for the blue avatar. After all, the cost of that was more years of his life.

After that, he shrunk the two avatars until they were small enough to be kept in his sleeve before he closed his eyes and meditated on the Heavenly Writing.

Time flew by quickly.

Five days later, early in the morning.

With just Purple Glazed Ceramic, Lu Zhou had fully restored his divine power.

At some point, Duanmu Sheng and Ye Tianxin had arrived as well.

Based on Lu Zhou’s past experience, after he successfully activated the blue avatar’s second Birth Chart, the limit of his divine power would rise again.

He was just about to bring out his two avatars to have a look at them when he heard movements from the blue avatar.

He brought the blue avatar out with a flick of his sleeve.

“The activation of the second Birth Chart is complete?”

‘When he sensed the Pillar of Impermanence, he found that the life force had decreased by 10,000 years. There were still about 60,000 years left in it.

Since he had activated the second Birth Chart for the blue avatar so quickly, how could he let go of the opportunity to activate another one? Moreover, after looking at his golden avatar’s Birth Palace, he knew the activation of the 24th Birth Chart would not be completed so soon. It was not realistic to

complete the activation of the 24th Birth Chart in a short time.

“again!”

Lu Zhou brought out another life heart from the Vast Sky Bag and decisively pressed it into his Birth Palace.

All he had to do was wait now.

‘With nothing else to do for now, his gaze wandered to Whitzard that was lying on the ground. He decided to feed it a beast essence.

Lu Zhou opened his system interface.

Merit points: 2,933,680

He had close to three million merit points. Previously, he had spent more than 500,000 merit points obtaining the Peak Trial Cards from the lucky draws. He did not expect to gain so much from killing the silver-armored guards; he had gained more than two million merit points from them. He felt very

comfortable and satisfied when he looked at the merit points he had.

“Tl buy ten beast essences.”

Lu Zhou decided to increase the strength of the Evil Sky Pavilion’s mounts. He did not need to worry about his disciples since they had the Great Void Seeds. If the mounts did not get stronger, it would be problematic.

“Ding! Used 1,000,000 merit points. Obtained: 10 beast essences.”

Then, he suddenly remembered that the little Fire Phoenix was not a mount of the Evil Sky Pavilion. However, when he thought about how the Fire Phoenix had lent two life hearts to him and Little Yuan’er and the little Fire Phoenix’s mediation and help, he decided to give them a beast essence.

“Old Fourth,” Lu Zhou called out.

Mingshi Yin, who was resting on a treetop 1,000 meters away, rushed over immediately.

“Master, are you looking for me?”

“This is the beast essence. There’s one for each of you. Give it to the mounts,” Lu Zhou said, tossing nine beast essences out.

‘When Mingshi Yin caught beast essences, he could feel their surging energies and exclaimed in surprise, “These are great stuff! Master, where did you get them?”

“Just use them. No need to ask so many questions,” Lu Zhou said.

“Yes, yes, yes,” Mingshi Yin put away the beast essences and respectfully said, “Thank you, master.”

Woof! Woof! Woof!

Qiong Qi rushed over from afar at this moment. It was wagging its tails so hard that it looked as though it was going to fall off.

Mingshi Yi rolled his eyes and said, “You really have a keen nose!”

Then, Mingshi Yi casually tossed one beast essence out.

Qiong Qi had been drooling over the beast essence for a long time. It caught it in its mouth and swallowed it whole.

Mingshi Yin: “..”

Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!

After swallowing it with one bite. Qiong Qi looked at Mingshi Yin and continued to bark.

‘Mingshi Yin was fair and well-behaved. Whenever he kept the resources, he would never take what did not belong to him. This time was no different. He said, “The other beast essences are for the others. You can’t monopolize all of them! Your appetite is really big.”

Woo!

Qiong Qi let out a mournful howl before it lowered its head and growled. Then, it bared its fangs as though it was going to attack Mingshi Yin.

Mingshi Yin waved his hand.

Bam!

A palm seal flew out, sending Qiong Qi flying back.

“Do you think I can deal with you?”

With this palm seal, Qiong Qi became obedient. It showed an aggrieved expression as it trotted to Mingshi Yin and rubbed its head against the side of its leg.

Then, Mingshi Yin turned to bow and Lu Zhou before he left.

‘When Mingshi Yin was nearing the edge of the cliff, he saw Yu Zhenghai practicing with his Jasper Saber. He called out, “Eldest Senior Brother, catch!”

Yu Zhenghai spun around and caught the beast essence before he asked, “What’s this?”

“Beast essence. Master said to give it to Bi An. It’s a treasure!” Mingshi Yin said with a smile.

Yu Zhenghai sensed the energy in the beast essence and nodded. He said with a sigh, “Master treats the mounts really well…”

“Isn’t it good for you as well if Bi An grows stronger?” Mingshi Yin said.

“You’re right.” Yu Zhenghai put the beast essence away before he brandished his Jasper Saber and said, “I came up with a new move recently. Fourth Junior Brother, stay and practice with me…”

“Uh…” Mingshi Yin said before he hurriedly left, “I still have matters to attend to! Goodbye, Eldest Senior Brother!”

Swoosh!

Mingshi Yin vanished in a blink of an eye.

Yu Zhenghai shook his head and said with a sigh, “Old Fourth is exceptionally talented. His cultivation is quite close to mine, but his character is slightly crooked. What a pity, what a pity. Back then, I should’ve brought him with me to the Nether Sect. Cultivators should have an indomitable spirit. He

hides in the dark all the time, wasting his talent…”

Achoo!

Mingshi Yin sneezed.

On the southern side of the ruins, Yu Shangrong flew back and forth on his Longevity Sword 1,000 meters away from Mingshi Yin.

Upon seeing Yu Shangrong, Mingshi Yin said, “Second Senior Brother’s swordsmanship has improved again!”

Swoosh!

Yu Shangrong smiled and sheathed the Longevity Sword.

“Old Fourth, why do you look so happy like you just gained something? Do you want to spar with me?” Yu Shangrong asked.

“No, no, no, it’s nothing like that,” Mingshi Yin said as he tossed a beast essence out, “This beast essence is for Ji Liang.”

Yu Shangrong nodded as he easily caught the beast essence. “Beast essence?”

“I still have matters to attend to so I’ll take my leave first,” Mingshi Yin said. He did not give Yu Shangrong a chance to continue speaking and quickly vanished without a trace.

Yu Shangrong: “???”

Mingshi Yin had an easier time delivering the beast essences to the others.

Even Lu Wa, the beast emperor, drooled when it saw the beast essence.

With this, one could tell how extraordinary the beast essences were.

Zhao Yue, Ye Tianxin, Zhu Honggong, Little Yuan’er, and Conch fed their mounts the beast essences as well.

In the ruins.

Ten days later.

Lu Zhou was woken up from his cultivation by a crisp noise.

He opened his eyes and waved his hand.

The golden avatar appeared on the left, and the blue avatar appeared on the right.

Lu Zhou looked at the golden avatar’s Birth Palace first. The 24th Birth Chart flashed brilliantly.

Unfortunately, his golden avatar’s Birth Palace did not expand.

“Can I really only activate 26 Birth Charts?” Lu Zhou was slightly worried. It would be difficult for him to confront the Great Void with 26 Birth Charts.

Lu Zhou frowned. “There are only two Birth Charts left before I reach my limit. If the Birth Palace doesn’t expand, I’ll be in trouble.”

Lu Zhou shook his head. For now, he had to think about how to pass the fourth Birth Trial. Even if he could only activate 26 Birth Charts, he would continue to advance; retreating was not an option.

Fortunately, the blue avatar’s Birth Palace had been completely expanded. That gave him enough confidence.

However, activating three Birth Charts so quickly had left traces on the Birth Palace as well. It was not completely smooth and was slightly uneven. He would need time to stabilize his cultivation base.

After withdrawing the two avatars, Lu Zhou rose to his feet. With just a flash, he arrived at the foot of a mountain near the ruins. He saw Little Yuan’er talking to the little Fire Phoenix and Conch.

“You must remember not to be heartless. My master even gave you a beast essence!” Little Yuan’er said.

The little Fire Phoenix chirped twice and flapped its wings as though it was expressing its gratitude.

“Yuan’er,” Lu Zhou called out.

“Master?”

When Little Yuan’er and Conch saw Lu Zhou, they bowed and greeted him.

“Are you done with the Fire Phoenix’s life heart?” Lu Zhou asked.

“Yes. I used it the day we arrived. I’ve already returned it to the Fire Phoenix,” Little Yuan’er replied.

Lu Zhou was speechless. After a while, he said, “Alright.”

At this moment, the Fire Phoenix looked over from afar and saw Lu Zhou.

The little Fire Phoenix flew to the top of its mother’s head and cried out excitedly.

Seeing that the little Fire Phoenix’s size had increased a little, it seemed very satisfied.

Lu Zhou said, “I’m returning you your life heart.”

Swoosh!

Lu Zhou tossed the life heart to the Fire Phoenix.

The Fire Phoenix opened its beaks, and the life heart entered them. Its abdomen moved a few times before the life heart finally returned to its original position. Now that it had all its life hearts again, its energy and aura grew stronger again. Its body burned with flames as although it was going to explode

at any moment. Then, it rose to its feet and let out a long cry at the sky before it flew up.

The people of the Evil Sky Pavilion rushed over one after another and greeted Lu Zhou.

“Master!”

“Pavilion Master!”

Conch said, “Master, it said that you’re the first human it finds pleasing to the eye.”

The others laughed upon hearing this.

Lu Zhou asked, “Do you dislike the people from the Great Void?”

The Fire Phoenix let out a sonorous cry.

Conch translated. “It said that not only does it dislike the people from the Great Void, but it hates them!”

“Why?” Lu Zhou asked.

The Fire Phoenix lowered its head and did not reply for a moment. Then, it said in human language, “Humans… there are some things… best that you don’t know… The Great Void is… very powerful… We will meet… again…”

Then, the Fire Phoenix swept one wing out toward the little Fire Phoenix, but the little Fire Phoenix dodged the wing and flew to Little Yuan’er. After it perched on Little Yuan’er’s shoulder, it chirped a few times.

“You really… want to stay?” the Fire Phoenix asked.

The little Fire Phoenix nodded.

The Fire Phoenix: “…”

For a moment, the Fire Phoenix wondered if the little Fire Phoenix was really its child.

Then, the Fire Phoenix said, slightly stiltedly, “There’s a problem with… Pillars of Destruction. Landis… splitting… Sky… about to collapse. The Unknown Land will become… hell… This place is… very dangerous.”

The little Fire Phoenix shook its head and hid behind Little Yuan’er.

Little Yuan’er said, “It’s the safest with me. You’re big so it’s very easy for others to notice you. Even if the sky collapses, my master will deal with it! That’s what he said before! Right, master?”

Lu Zhou:

‘Little girl, I did say that, but you can’t drag me into a ditch for no reason… Bragging can’t be counted as truth…’

Nonetheless, Lu Zhou raised his head and said with a straight face, “It’s a great opportunity for the little Fire Phoenix to stay with Yuan’er. If it follows you, it’ll be targeted by the Great Void. Of course, I won’t stop you if you insist on bringing it with you. Yuan’er, stand aside.”

Little Yuan’er obediently stepped aside.

Unexpectedly, the little Fire Phoenix moved along with her, still hiding behind her.

Little Yuan’er moved again, and the little Fire Phoenix moved again.

The Fire Phoenix was a highly intelligent divine beast. How could it not understand this logic? It was its maternal instinct that made it want to bring its child away, but rationally, it knew that it would be dangerous for its child to follow it when the land was splitting and chaotic. It recalled the time before

it became a divine beast. If it had failed to become a divine beast that time, it would have fallen prey to the humans.

The Fire did not speak or make any sound. Instead, it silently tuned around and plucked a feather before tossing it to Lu Zhou. Then, it walked into the distance; it did not fly.

Everyone sighed when they looked at the back of the Fire Phoenix.

The little Fire Phoenix finally stopped hiding. It looked at the Fire Phoenix that was getting further and further away before it let out a few cries.

The Fire Phoenix stopped in its tracks.

“Take care.”

Swoosh!

With a flap of its wings, flames bumed around the Fire Phoenix. Then, it shot up to the sky and flew into the distance.

The little Fire Phoenix flapped its wings and flew up as well. It flew swiftly and skillfully, and small flames burned around it. However, how could it catch up to a divine beast?

In just a blink of an eye, the Fire Phoenix had already vanished from their sight.

It was unknown when the mother and child would meet again.

In truth, there was no right or wrong. Even if it was difficult and dangerous, there was no wrong for a mother to be with her child. However, how could mothers bear putting their children in danger? No matter which choice it was, as a mother, it would feel sad either way..
