My disciples are all villains.

Chapter 1180: That Was Close

Upon hearing Zhu Honggong's words, Duanmu Sheng sighed. "All of you have become stronger, I'm the only one who's still standing in the same spot."

Zhu Honggong withdrew his avatar and scratched his head sheepishly. "Master said you'll achieve something sooner or later…"

"Did master really say that?"

"Yes."

"Don't comfort me." Duanmu Sheng grabbed the Overlord Spear next to him. The feel of the familiar dragon carving on its shaft was reassuring. He said, "Come, spar with me."

"No, no, no." Zhu Honggong waved his hand. "Third Senior Brother, you're really a spear addict. Must you spar as soon as you wake up? Moreover, I have eleven leaves; I won't progress even if I spar with… Uh… Third Senior Brother, that's not what I mean…" Zhu Honggong realized he had said the wrong thing when he saw Duanmu Sheng's dejected expression.

At this moment, a voice rang from outside…

"Duanmu Sheng."

"Master?"

Duanmu Sheng held the Overlord Spear and rushed out of the southern pavilion.

In the sky above the southern pavilion.

Lu Wu lowered its head to look at Duanmu Sheng.

Lu Zhou, who was hovering next to Lu Wu's side, noticed that Duanmu Sheng's loyalty had recovered by 80% in a short period of time.

"Greetings, master." Duanmu Sheng bowed.

Zhu Honggong followed suit and bowed as well.

Lu Zhou said, "You were unconscious before this so I made a decision on your behalf. However, now that you're awake, I'll leave it up to you to decide." He glanced at Lu Wu before he continued to say, "You have a large amount of corrosive energy and Lu Wu's essence qi in your body. Moreover, you have the Great Void Seed. Currently, your cultivation is that of a Three Chart Thousand Realms Whirling cultivator at least…"

Everyone. "..."

Zhu Honggong. 'That was close!'

"However, things aren't so simple," Lu Zhou lowered his altitude and continued to say, "You've already demonized so normal cultivation method is useless. When the corrosive energy completely fuses with you, you'll have breakthroughs in your cultivation…"

'Demonize?' Duanmu Sheng was in a daze. In fact, he did not care if he demonized or not as long as his heart was not affected and he did not lose himself. After all, he did not discriminate in the path of cultivation. The Evil Sky Pavilion had been known as evil for hundreds of years but none of them cared. Nevertheless, he still felt slightly lost.

"If you want to completely fuse the energies in your body, you need the environment and energy in the Unknown Land. Hence, only Lu Wu can help you…"

"You can refuse, and I'll expel the corrosive energy in your body for you…"

After Lu Zhou finished speaking, he looked at Duanmu Sheng and Lu Wu, waiting for Duanmu Sheng to decide.

After suppressing the shock in his heart, Zhu Honggong moved to Duanmu Sheng's side and said, "Third Senior Brother, I think it's better to stay in the Evil Sky Pavilion. The Unknown Land is too dangerous. You must stay."

Duanmu Sheng hesitated.

If it were Zhu Honggong, he would not hesitate to stay. Going to the Unknown Land would not be an option at all.

"Why are you hesitating?" Lu Zhou asked.

Duanmu Sheng said, "Master, if I become a demon completely, will I still be me?"

At this moment, Lu Wu raised its head and let out a long roar that shook heaven and earth and the Evil Sky Pavilion. Then, it said, "You'll always be you. The corrosive power can activate the power of the Duanmu bloodline and give you strength. However, if you have a weak will then you should just forget it. I hate cowards the most."

"..."

Zhu Honggong raised his head. "Uh? I feel like I've just been scolded…"

Lu Wu glanced at the chubby future supreme being and corrected its words. "I mean… this mostly applies… to the descendants of Master Duanmu. His descendants… should be a man with… an indomitable spirit…" Then, he snuck a look at Zhu Honggong and added, "This… There should be… no problem… with these words, right?"

Following that, Duanmu Sheng kneeled on one knee and said, "Master, I want to try."

"Have you thought this through?" Lu Zhou had expected this so he was not surprised.

"I have thought it through. I know the path ahead is filled with thorns, but how can there be a smooth cultivation path in the world? If I don't overcome this difficulty, how can I continue on the cultivation path? I hope master will agree to my decision," Duanmu Sheng said.

Lu Zhou nodded. "Alright, then go…"

Lu Zhou extended his arm, and the Overlord Spear flew into his hand. Then, he said, "Collect the Overlord Spear from me tomorrow morning before you leave."

"Yes."

Lu Zhou spent the night raging the Overlord Spear to the flood grade using three fire spirit tones and a refining talisman.

The next morning.

The disciples of the Evil Sky Pavilion were already waiting outside.

Lu Wu was getting anxious from waiting. It had stayed in the golden lotus domain for a long time so it would easily attract attention. Hence, it wanted to leave as soon as possible.

In the eastern pavilion.

Duanmu Sheng kneeled on the ground without moving as he looked at the sun in the sky. This should be the last time he would be able to enjoy the sunlight for a long time after leaving the Evil Sky Pavilion.

He continued kneeling, waiting for his master to come out. However, after kneeling for an hour, there was no sign of his master at all.

Bang!

A gust of strong wind blew the doors of the eastern pavilion open before the Overlord Spear flew out at lightning speed and stabbed into the ground in front of Duanmu Sheng.

Duanmu Sheng looked at the shining Overlord Spear in shock and disbelief.

At this time, Lu Zhou's voice rang from the hall.

"Go."

Duanmu Sheng regained control of his emotions and grabbed the Overlord Spear and placed it horizontally on the ground. Following that, he kowtowed three times in his master's direction before he flew away wordlessly.

It did not take long before Duanmu Sheng saw Lu Wu. When he looked around, he saw the others had gathered as well.

Ye Tianxin stood at the lead and said, "Third Senior Brother, take care."

"Mr. Third, we'll wait for your return!"

Everyone said their goodbyes.

Duanmu Sheng cupped his fists at everyone and said, "Take care."

After that, Lu Wu looked in the direction of the eastern pavilion and said, "Venerable Master… Lu… Be careful… The other side might send people over…"

After Lu Wu finished speaking, it stomped on the ground and shot up to the sky like a huge mountain. In just a few breaths, it vanished into the southwestern direction.

In the evening.

In the eastern pavilion.

Lu Zhou checked his item cards. He only had one ordinary Deadly Strike Card, Critical Block Cards, Disguise Card, Reversal Cards, and Deconstruction Cards.

To be safe, he had to buy item cards.

Just as Lu Wu had said, they had gone to the Unknown Land and stirred up such a huge commotion by annihilating the monster hunting squad. The green lotus domain will definitely send people to investigate.

Although Venerable Masters were restricted by the Balance, it did not mean they could not send other people to infiltrate the golden lotus domain. Moreover, there should be runic passages in the green lotus domain that led straight to the golden lotus domain.

"It seems like I've made an enemy out of Venerable Master Qin and Venerable Master Ye…" Lu Zhou shook his head.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Zhou bought three Impeccable Cards and one Synthesis Card, which cost him 136,000 merit points altogether.

The enhanced Impeccable Card was the best choice. If he encountered an expert with 17 or 18 Birth Charts, he still would not be a match even with an enhanced Deadly Strike Card. An enhanced Impeccable Card was equivalent to ten minutes of being invulnerable. If he was invulnerable, he could easily escape.

"It's unfortunate that I can only synthesize them three times…" Lu Zhou only had one more chance to synthesize the Impeccable Cards.

After a while, Lu Zhou's mind wandered to other matters.

"Where does this power come from?"

Based on the law of conservation, all energy in the world had a source and a destination. Did his system have to abide by the law of conservation?

How strong was a Venerable Master? What is the Dao?

He had too many questions that needed answers.
