Chapter 590: What Happened to Equality?

Many present on the scene thought that their eyes were deceiving them. They were certain they were hallucinating. They rubbed their eyes before they looked again.

The palm print on the wall was very clear. Emperor Liu Gu was embedded in the wall with an expression of despair on his face.

The entire place was deadly silent at this moment. The silence was almost palpable; it was difficult to breathe.

Their ears rang from the silence.

After a moment, the same thought appeared in everyone’s mind: How did he unleash a palm seal in the Ten Terminal Formation?

What happened to all beings being equal inside the Ten Terminal Formation? What happened to everyone becoming ordinary when there was no Primal Qi? What happened to fighting with blades and brute force? Was that all a lie?

Some people came to the conclusion that the Formation was somehow damaged so they tried to circulate their Primal Qis. Alas, there was nothing. There was no Primal Qi regardless of how hard they tried.

What was a cultivator with the power from his cultivation base like in a crowd of mortals? Inside the Ten Terminal Formation, he was like supreme-ruler!

Still stuck on the wall, Liu Gu coughed.

The noise brought everyone back to the present.

A hint of hope flickered faintly in the Imperial guards’ hearts. However, they despaired when they looked up and saw another blue palm seal sailing in the air. It was also a Great Blitz Treasure Seal.

Liu Gu had just opened his eyes when he saw another blue palm seal flying toward him. “I. Will. Live!”

Its speed and route were similar to the previous attack, and it landed on Liu Gu’s face again.

Bam!

A loud explosion rang in the air before it fell deadly silent again.

With this palm strike, Liu Gu died. How was he supposed to live?

There was nothing a palm strike could not solve. If it could not be solved with one palm strike, then all that was needed was another palm strike.

“Ding! Killed a target. Reward: 2,500 merit points.”

When he heard this notification, Lu Zhou looked up slightly at Liu Gu. With Liu Gu’s death, he did not suffer too much of a loss. The Deadly Strike Card was now 10,000 merit points each. He killed Liu Gu twice, which was akin to spending 5,000 merit points.

The strike at the lake had undoubtedly killed Liu Gu. Then, he came back to life again. This should be his second life. It was wasted just like that.

“Perhaps, I should do it again…” Lu Zhou muttered to himself.

“???” Duanmu Sheng was puzzled. “Master… I think Liu Gu is really dead this time. He… doesn’t even look anything like himself now. His body is completely destroyed.”

“I mean there’s a possibility he might come back to life again. You should never let your guard down.”

Swoosh!

When Duanmu Sheng heard Lu Zhou’s words, he immediately lifted his Overlord Spear again and pointed at Liu Gu.

In fact, Lu Zhou simply came up with an excuse to cover up what was meant to be his inner monologue. There was no way Liu Gu could come back to life.

Lu Zhou stepped forward and looked at the Imperial guards.

The Imperial guards did not hesitate and threw their weapons away immediately, frightened out of their wits. They did not even dare to meet Lu Zhou’s eyes.

Lu Zhou looked at the Sky Conduct Academy’s Elders. “Continue.”

“…”

One of the elders broke down instantly. He charged over and shouted, “I don’t believe this… I don’t believe this! This is all a nightmare! I must be dreaming!”

To the surprise of the others, the elder was really bold enough to charge toward Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou lifted his hand again.

Bam!

The elder reeled back!

Lu Zhou did not even deign to look at him. He looked at the others fiercely.

“Does anyone else have a problem?”

“…”

Anyone with a brain knew that it would be foolish to charge forward now. They were not even a match for Lu Zhou when their cultivation bases were not restricted, how could they be a match for him now that they were no different from mortals?

The remaining elders slowly retreated.

The neutral cultivators fell to the ground immediately. They kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Lu Zhou did not sympathize with them.

When Yu Zhenghai attacked the Divine Capital, he must have given them a choice. If they were bold enough to covet glory and riches, they would have to have the resolve to lose their lives should they fail. There was no such thing as a free meal under the heavens.

Lu Zhou waved his arm. “Take them down.”

The Nether Sect’s branch master, Ke Qinghai, was invigorated. He immediately said, “Understood!” Then, he turned around and shouted, “Take them down!”

Under Lu Zhou’s watchful eyes, the neutral cultivators did not resist. They were all tied up.

Similarly, the Sky Conduct Academy elders had completely lost all will to fight back. They lay limply on the ground.

“Since you’re not going to end your lives, you’ll all be beheaded.”

Ke Qinghao said again, “Cut them down!”

Dozens of Nether Sect disciples swarmed forward.

The Sky Conduct Academy elders had no choice but to submit to their fates.

Inside the Eyes of the Formation on the Imperial city’s peak, the ten elders from the Big Dipper Academy were filled with regret at this moment. They regretted not listening to President Zhou’s words. At this juncture, they could hardly turn back since they were already on the tiger’s back. Regardless if it was pressing forward or backing off did, it did not bode well for them at all.

The ten of them exchanged a glance before they left the Eyes of the Formation at the same time.

Si Wuya had been keeping an eye on them so he called out, “Master!”

Lu Zhou looked at the peak of the Imperial city. The long-robed cultivators were already gone. He looked at the imperial guards coldly and stepped forward…

The imperial guards retreated. There was no Primal Qi inside the Ten Terminal Formation. Hence, they could not run far nor could they leave the Ten Terminal Formation’s barrier.

At this moment, Duanmu Sheng raised his Overlord Spear and stabbed the ground.

Dong!

Duanmu Sheng’s brute strength alone was shocking enough. Having trained under the waterfall for a long time, he was braver than most men. He shouted, “The dog emperor, Liu Gu, is dead… You’re still trying to resist?”

At this moment, Si Wuya walked out, passed the crowd, and stood by Lu Zhou’s side. With a clear voice, he said, “Actually, he’s not your emperor…”

Si Wuya would not rest until he revealed this shocking revelation. “The real Liu Gu died a long time ago. This person is an impostor.”

The Imperial family and their officials valued birthright and bloodline over everything else.

Someone cried out hoarsely, “Impossible! That can’t be true! Hold them back… Fight!”

Lu Zhou continued walking toward the gates of the Imperial city.

The Imperial guards standing guard retreated again. When they were near the path, they were pressed tightly against each other.

Lu Zhou struck with his palm again…

A blue palm shot out in the air!

Everyone watched with wide eyes as the palm seal flew toward the Imperial guards.

Boom!

When the palm seal landed, it resembled the scene where corn was cooked and popped.

The 100 Imperial guard soldiers in the path were sent flying into the wall.

With lightning movements, Lu Zhou strode into the Imperial city and stomped his feet.

Boom!

A light circle appeared under Lu Zhou’s feet and rippled out. The floorboards around him were uprooted immediately.

Nearly 1,000 Imperial guards were sent flying by the impact!

Everyone froze when they saw this.

Lu Zhou rested his hands on his back. He looked nonchalant as he stood among the Imperial guards.

Shortly after, the Imperial guards fell from the sky like rain

Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!

They crashed on the shattered limestone floor with a loud explosion. They could not even withstand a single blow.

The Nether Sect members watched this scene excitedly. How thrilling and exciting!

Inside the Ten Terminal Formation, the Patriarch of the Evil Sky Pavilion was like supreme-ruler!

‘Follow the patriarch!’

In the hearts of the Nether Sect members, Lu Zhou was currently as invincible as supreme-ruler!

At this time, the other Nether Sect disciples entered the Imperial city as well. The towering palaces and buildings; they occupied everything.

The Nether Sect disciples were well-trained. They entered the Imperial city in neat rows and marched rhythmically. They swarmed toward the Evergreen Palace, the Eternal Palace, the Dazheng Palace, and the Jinghe Palace.

The Nether Sect had successfully reached the Divine Capital.

At this moment, with the Evergreen Palace in the center and the other palaces at the sides, a golden Formation seal glowed. It resembled an Eight Gates Formation seal.

“Formation inside a Formation, the Eight Gates Formation seal.”

Si Wuya ran forward.

Lu Zhou pushed away from the ground lightly. He hovered in the air with a cold expression on his face.

The Eight Gates Formation seal within the Ten Terminal Formation was like a translucent sky-curtain with golden floral patterns. It was exceptionally brilliant.

The others looked up again.

Lu Zhou flew to the center of the Eight Gates Formation seal…

To gain the power to silence everything, to maintain and manifest samadhi. Like light and shadow, permeating everywhere while staying still in samadhi.

A blue lotus blossomed!
