My Disciples Are All Villains Chapter 1247 - Breakthrough

Chapter 1247: Breakthrough

After the energy was removed from the Pillar of Impermanence, it became much brighter. Perhaps, due to Lu Zhou and the others’ influence, its spirituality seemed to have changed slightly.
It hovered quietly in front of Lu Zhou. The drop of blood slid down its surface, leaving a faint trail of blood behind.
Since the system prompted Lu Zhou to subdue it, he should be able to subdue it. However, the problem was how was he supposed to subdue it? The Pillar of Impermanence was too powerful when it was in the ancient formation. Now that it had been removed from the formation, its power had been greatly reduced. Even then, it was not something a ‘fake’ like him could deal with.
Then, Lu Zhou checked his system interface. He discovered Whitzard was not resting like it usually would after using its ability. It seemed like Whitzard had really grown stronger after eating beast essence. Previously, after entering the state of resting, it fell behind the others.
‘The beast essence given to it isn’t in vain…’
Lu Zhou descended.
At the same time, the Pillar of Strength descended at the same speed as him.
“Whitzard.”
Whitzard flew over from nearby. It seemed to understand its master’s intention.
Everyone clicked their tongues in admiration.
Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!
Qiong Qi’s eyes were filled with jealousy. It felt slightly aggrieved when it recalled the beast essence.
Lu Zhou gauged his divine power; he still had about half left.
“Luzhou perceives the power of the heavens, about half of it.
At the same time, the Pillar of Impermanence continued to hover in front of Lu Zhou as though it was studying Lu Zhou.
Everyone was baffled.
“What’s the Pillar of Impermanence doing?”
“Since the negative energy has been removed, it means that its power has been greatly weakened. Yong He, despite being a powerful beast emperor, was still a fierce beast, after all. Naturally, it’s as difficult as ascending to the heavens for Yong He to subdue it. Humans are sentient beings and are born with the advantage of high spirituality. Perhaps… the pillar is looking for an owner?” Kong Wen said.
“Can you look at me?” Mingshi Yin asked as he pointed at himself.
The Pillar of Impermanence spun around. Who knew what it was thinking?
Whoosh!
The Pillar of Impermanence suddenly shot horizontally toward Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou manifested his astrolabe to block the pillar.
The Pillar of Impermanence was very powerful when it shot toward Lu Zhou.
When the people from the Evil Sky Pavilion saw this, they quickly moved out of its way and leaped onto Lu Wu’s back.
“Whitzard!” Little Yuan’er called out before she leaped onto Whitzard’s back.
Following that, Whitzard flew up next to Lu Wu.
Lu Zhou was very agile as he flew up into the clouds, facing the Pillar of Impermanence. They were like two meteors shooting up into the sky.
“Interesting,” Lu Wu said.
“Pavilion Master will definitely be able to subdue the pillar.”
Everyone was very confident in Lu Zhou.
…
Lu Zhou flew about 50 kilometers away, far from the original spot. Then, he mobilized his divine power.
His astrolabe flashed and spun, increasing its size by 1,000 times.
When the Pillar of Impermanence stopped moving, Lu Zhou looked down and saw a circular lake beneath his feet.
The lake water was like a mirror; it was smooth without a single ripple, reflecting the astrolabe.
Lu Zhou increased his divine power and pushed forward.
Buzz!
The Pillar of Impermanence was pushed back. Then, it pushed forward.
A person and an object continued to struggle against each other. This really made Lu Zhou feel f*cking speechless.
If it was a Venerable Master, he could have used an item card to teach them a lesson. Now, what was he supposed to do with an object? An object had no life; how was he going to kill it?
“Go.”
Lu Zhou increased the divine power yet again.
Bang!
The Pillar of Impermanence was pushed back again. It spun in the air flying back toward the mountain peak by the lake. Then, it suddenly expanded 100 times in size, looking like a towering ancient tree as it stabbed into the peak of the mountain.
Rocks rolled down the mountain immediately.
The Pillar of Impermanence thrummed, releasing a surge of vitality energy that attracted the fierce beasts in all directions.
“It can do this as well?” Lu Zhou knew the infinite grade was stronger than the fusion grade. However, he did not expect it to be so much stronger.
The fierce beasts that were attracted by the Pillar of Impermanence were just weak fierce beasts.
Lu Zhou swooped down and roared, releasing the aura of a beast emperor, scaring the fierce beasts away.
Boom!
The Pillar of Impermanence dislodged itself from the mountain peak and attacked Lu Zhou again. It moved as fast as lightning and shot across the sky like a shooting star.
Lu Zhou brought Unnamed out.
“Do you think you’re stronger than Unnamed?” From the beginning until now, Lu Zhou had no idea about the extent of Unnamed’s strength. All he knew was Unnamed was peerlessly shaped and could change into many forms. Its strength was very different from the Pillar of Impermanence. Who would win when they collide?
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Above the lake, Lu Zhou left countless afterimages in his wake. Those with low cultivation bases would not be able to capture his movements at all. They would only be able to see the golden energy swords colliding with the Pillar of Impermanence in the sky.
“The Pillar of Impermanence is so strong?” Mingshi Yin was surprised.
“It’s an infinite-grade object, after all. Yong He refused to give it up for 30,000 years…” Kong Wen said.
The sound of battles rang out continuously.
“It’s a good thing it’s not in the ancient formation.”
Fear still lingered in everyone’s hearts when they recalled what happened earlier. Such an ability was too terrifying.
…
The intense battle between a man and an object continued for two hours. It was a battle that seemed to have no end.
“For the Pavilion Master’s sword to be able to fight the Pillar of Impermanence until now, it’s definitely at the infinity grade at least…”
“Master’s sword?” Little Yuan’er looked at it and said, “No wonder Jiang Aijian wanted it so badly. However, master didn’t give it to him.”
The delicate and exquisite small sword grew fiercer and fiercer as time went on. The more it clashed with its opponent, the fiercer it became.
Bang!
The Pillar of Impermanence retreated 100 meters. It stopped before it continued to slowly retreat.
Lu Zhou opened his hand, releasing Unnamed.
Everyone’s eyes lit up.
Kong Wen laughed. “It’s scared! It’s actually scared!”
At this moment, Lu Zhou said, “If you don’t submit, I’ll use this word to cut you into pieces…”
In fact, Lu Zhou felt very silly for saying such words. The Pillar of Impermanence was just an object, after all, but he was talking to it as though it could understand him.
Swoosh!
The Pillar of Impermanence suddenly grew 100 times bigger before it plunged into the lake, stirring up a huge wave.
Splash!
As though it was boiling, the surface of the lake began to bubble.
Lu Zhou brought the Purple Glazed Ceramic out and tossed it down.
“Freeze!”
Creak!
The lake water froze immediately.
After Lu Zhou put the Purple Glazed Ceramic away, he called out, “Confinement Seal.”
Boom!
The Confinement Seal fell from the sky, suppressing the Pillar of Impermanence.
Lu Zhou landed on the Confinement Seal and stomped on it heavily.
Boom!
The Pillar of Impermanence was pressed down to the point where it could not move at all. It could only shrink at this time. Then, it found a small opening and flew to the sky, looking as though it was running away!
Lu Zhou remained calm. He brought out Unnamed in the form of a bow and quickly released arrows.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The arrows that had already been imbued with his divine power landed on the Pillar of Impermanence consecutively, causing its body to turn red and its speed to decrease.
With nowhere to run, the Pillar of Impermanence turned back and sped toward Lu Zhou.
“Watch out!”
Although the Pillar of Impermanence’s strength had been greatly reduced, it was still strong. Moreover, who knew what other tricks it was hiding?
Lu Zhou launched a palm seal imbued with divine power out in front of him.
Bang!
The backlash from the collision cut the frozen lake in half. Once again, they were caught in another deadlock.
Buzz!
At this time, a vortex formed above the Pillar of Impermanence.
“Again?” Lu Zhou could feel the years of his life decreasing. He had learned from his mistakes earlier. Moreover, he was no longer in the ancient formation so how could he tolerate this? He waved his hand, intending on dispersing the palm seal.
However, the Pillar of Impermanence stuck to the palm seal, absorbing Lu Zhou’s lifespan from it.
Once again, Lu Zhou’s lifespan was greatly reduced. The extra few thousand years he had gained earlier was completely absorbed in less than 15 minutes. Soon enough, his appearance began to age again. However, this time, the changes were subtle.
At this moment, a wave of coolness came from his Dantian’s sea of Qi. Then, the blue avatar appeared. The blue avatar seemed to have seen the most delicious food in the world as it began to greedily absorb the vitality energy.
“???”
‘What am I waiting for?’
Most humans would instinctively protect themselves; the same could be said for the blue avatar.
“Upgrade.”
The blue avatar began to absorb the vitality energy in a frenzy. It was unbelievable that the blue Nine Transformation Yin Yang avatar could absorb the Pillar of Impermanence’s vitality energy. This was like an ant tripping an elephant!
Lu Zhou could clearly feel the surging vitality energy flowing from his palm seal into his hands before going into his Dantian’s sea of Qi, feeding the blue avatar.
The blue avatar continued to grow until…
“Ding! Upgrade successful.”
Lu Zhou was slightly surprised. To think he had actually broken through at such a time.
“Ding! Ten Worlds avatar. Next upgrade will require 10,000 years of life.”
10,000 years was too long! It would be a race against time to accumulate so many years.
Meanwhile, the blue avatar was fiercer than before, perfectly restraining the Pillar of Impermanence.
The vitality energy continued to flow in reverse from the Pillar of Impermanence to the blue avatar.
Everyone was baffled.
“What’s going on?”
