Chapter 47: How Dare You
Lu Zhou opened the interface of the Heaven Writing and glanced at the characters he could read. They had not increased in number and those he could not read had not decreased either. He judged that he had to repeatedly read the contents in the front part of the Human Scroll and comprehend the meaning in them before the latter part would be slowly revealed to him. He wondered why there were some extra characters the last time he read it when he had not comprehended anything.
This showed that the Heaven Writing was comprehensible, but it was somewhat difficult.
The light in the chamber was still dimmed, but Lu Zhou immersed himself in reading and comprehending the Heaven Writing. Time ticked away, and at some point in time, the magical scene appeared again: faint specks of light could be seen flickering over the dimmed light source.
However, Lu Zhou was not aware of that. He kept his legs crossed as he read, and soon three days had passed.
…
On Golden Court Mountain, Zhou Jifeng was absorbed in practicing his sword technique, Duanmu Sheng was healing his wounds in seclusion, and Mingshi Yin was at the critical juncture of breaking through. Little Yuan’er was the only person who had nothing to do. She was bored, but she could not leave the mountain.
Fortunately, the mountain was protected by the shield, so she did not have to worry and be on guard against possible enemy invasion. On the fourth day, when she came to the courtyard again, there were movements in the cluster of wood.
She thought she heard a creaking sound, and she bolted into the courtyard as fast as lightning while glancing around.
“Fourth Senior Brother?” She noticed that the wood stacked on top of one another was expanding and growing at an incredible rate, finding it strange. “Master said it will take Fourth Senior Brother seven days to transcend this tribulation. How can he be so fast?”
Before very long, the wood had grown to almost the same height as the Evil Sky Pavilion. Little Yuan’er was forced to keep moving back because half of the courtyard was occupied by it. She could not leave, however, so she simply flew up the air and wheeled around it.
BOOM!
Suddenly, the wood burst apart, strewing the sky with broken branches. Little Yuan’er quickly released her energy to keep them from hitting her. In the next moment, a figure flew out of the cluster, his body emanating waves of energy that rippled across the void like water. Little Yuan’er retreated some more and managed to block the waves, which shook even the Evil Sky Pavilion.
An energy vortex was formed in the courtyard, with Mingshi Yin floating in the middle, his eyes closed and his arms outstretched.
“Congratulations Fourth Senior Brother on stepping into the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm!” Little Yuan’er said in a joyous voice.
…
Lu Zhou, who was studying the Heaven Writing in the secret chamber, was alerted by the shaking as well. He was absorbed in reading when the bookshelves, weapons, and other miscellaneous things around him swayed and jumped, waking him from deep thoughts. No one would feel happy in this kind of a situation. It was like someone suddenly woke him up when he was sleeping soundly.
It had only been three days that he did not discipline the group of villainous disciples, and now they were making so many noises that it almost brought his roof down.
“How dare you!” Lu Zhou scolded in a faint voice and waved his arm before he continued to read the writings.
…
Mingshi Yin, who was supported by the energy vortex in midair over the courtyard, was enjoying the pleasure of breaking through a new realm. His arms were outreached, his eyes closed, and he wore a satisfying smile.
“Little Junior Sister…”
“Why did you wake up so soon, Senior Brother?”
“It feels so good to step into the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm. Now that I have an avatar, the world will soon be mine!”
“Senior Brother has gained a Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar?” Little Yuan’er asked enviously.
Mingshi Yin’s eyes were still closed as he said lightly, “Before you all came back, I had already stayed in the earth for a long time, so I didn’t need seven days to make the breakthrough. Watch closely, Little Junior Sister!”
Buzz!
At the moment he produced his Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar, he saw a faint speck of light drift over from the top of Evil Sky Pavilion, and he heard a solemn voice at the same time, “How dare you!”
A sizzling sound filled the air as the faint light corroded the energy waves, turning them into nothingness in a flash.
What would happen when Mingshi Yin was no longer supported by the energy vortex?
Plop!
He fell straight to the ground.
“Ouch!” He did not dare to continue showing off. Hurriedly, he struggled to his feet and turned to the Evil Sky Pavilion as he dropped to his knees and said, “I’m sorry, Master!”
He should have gone to another place to show off and not floated over where his master was resting.
Mingshi Yin was too panicked to get up, both amazed by his master’s skill and thankful that he was not hurt.
“Eh? Fourth Senior Brother, do you need to kneel to release your avatar?” Little Yuan’er slowly descended from the sky.
“Cough! Cough!” Mingshi Yin rose to his feet embarrassingly when he noticed no more reactions from Evil Sky Pavilion. He cleared his throat, pretending nothing had just happened, and said, “I’ve just stepped into the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm, and I’m still not used to it. Where is Master?”
Little Yuan’er told him what had happened over the last few days.
After listening to her, Mingshi Yin furrowed his brow slightly and said, “Sixth Junior Sister’s cultivation base is destroyed and she is now locked up in the back of the mountain?”
“Yes.”
“I’ll go and have a look at her. Leave everything on the mountain to me. I need you to gather information at the station in Tangzi. Master will certainly ask about that when he comes out of seclusion,” Mingshi Yin said.
“Fourth Senior Brother is so thoughtful! I’ll go right now!” Little Yuan’er jumped happily.
“Stay out of trouble!” After saying that, Mingshi Yin scratched his head. It did not sound like him, but why did the words come naturally out of his mouth?
“Don’t worry, I’m a very kind girl!” Little Yuan’er turned and bolted down the mountain at an astonishing speed.
Mingshi Yin turned and looked at Evil Sky Pavilion. He could not help but shiver at the thought of the warning that he heard just now. He thought he could relax a little bit after stepping into the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm, but it seemed that he still had a long way to go.
He stepped out of the courtyard, moving like a phantom. Before this, his every step would take him one hundred feet away, but now it took him three hundred feet away.
In the blink of an eye, he arrived at the back of the mountain.
“Eh? You?” Mingshi Yin saw Zhou Jifeng, who was practicing with a sword.
Zhou Jifeng panicked when he saw the phantom-like Mingshi Yin. He quickly put away his sword and the book beore cupping his fist guiltily at Mingshi Yin, “Greetings, Fourth…Senior Brother?”
He was not a disciple of Evil Sky Pavilion, so he did not know how he should address the man.
Mingshi Yin grinned wickedly and said, “I heard Little Junior Sister say that you are a rare genius of the Heavenly Sword Sect.”
“She’s flattering me. I don’t deserve that…”
“Well, you can be my practice target,” Mingshi Yin flexed his muscles.
“What!” Zhou Jifeng did not understand what he meant.
Buzz!
“Hundred Tribulations Insight!” A twenty feet tall and five feet wide avatar emerged behind Mingshi Yin.
Zhou Jifeng glanced at it and murmured, “Such a small Hundred Tribulations Insight…”
“What did you say?”
Plop!
Zhou Jifeng fell to the ground as he tilted his head and said, “It’s so strong!”
Mingshi Yin frowned slightly, wondering if the avatar of the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm was really so strong, so much so that it had made Zhou Jifeng faint before he could attack. “A rare genius? You are mediocre at best.” He turned and started toward the Cave of Reflection at the back of the mountain.
Zhou Jifeng carefully opened his eyes, patted himself on the chest as he took a deep breath to calm the boiling Qi and blood in him. If he did not make it look real, he would not be able to deceive a villain like this. He would rather hurt himself than be beat by others!
…
Inside the Evil Sky Pavilion, Lu Zhou slowly opened his eyes. Right then, the light specks near the light source disappeared.
After studying it for a few days, he had a new understanding of the Heaven Writing. He felt as if he had had a long dream. However, many of the meanings were obscured and hard to understand, and he needed to continue studying them.
He opened the system interface.
“I have sixty-one luck points…Lucky draw.”
