Indeed, the blossoming of the blue lotus was beautiful. Its movement was graceful, and its momentum was crushing. Alas, the extraordinary power was not infinite.

Since Qiong Qi had experienced how powerful the blue lotus was, it was now wary. It lowered its head and moved from side to side. Clearly, it was intelligent.

Meanwhile, Lu Zhou was thinking of a way to tame the beast in front of him.

Bi An was powerful, but its size was small in comparison. If it were to fight Qiong Qi, it would not be enough to fill the gap between Qiong Qi’s fangs.

‘I have enough mounts as it is. Why would I need Qiong Qi? Should I just kill it?’

Lu Zhou flipped his palm. He could shatter the Deadly Strike Card at any moment. He had three-quarters of his extraordinary power left. ‘Well… Whether it can be tamed or not, I should at least give it a try. If I can’t tame it, I can always just kill it.’

He retracted the Deadly Strike Card. With a stroke of his beard, Lu Zhou said, “Livestock, do you know you’ve just brushed shoulders with death?”

The cultivators below shuddered when they heard these words. Lu Zhou looked extremely cool in their eyes. His confidence was awe-inspiring.

However, in the two red lotus cultivators’ eyes, Lu Zhou was insane.

Qiong Qi bared its fangs and lowered its head. It was ready to pounce at any given moment.

The 100-meter tall Qiong Qi could reach Lu Zhou with just a single leap.

Grrr!

Qiong Qi growled.

Lu Zhou frowned. Was it not a savage beast that could not even be tamed by Eight-leaf cultivators. Why did it sound like a dog? He had expected a ferocious roar not a growl like a dog. Nevertheless, based on its growl, he could tell it was furious.

Qiong Qi suddenly leaped. It behaved like a wild beast in the forest. The sheer distance it covered with a single leap was truly shocking. Its claws shone, and its eyes shone fiercely as well.

Lu Zhou did not use the power to silence everything again. The range of the attack was not precise, and the impact was not powerful enough.

In the end, he raised a hand and chose to use the power of past lives.

Originating from nothing, from it comes everything. Living in samsara and learning from it.

A rich blue radiance surged out of his palm, and he launched a Daoist palm seal…

When the first palm seal shot out, Lu Zhou followed after it. With a flurry of movements, he summoned his avatar.

His Eight-leaf golden lotus avatar shone in the air!

“Eight-leaf?”

“The patriarch is skilled and brave! He’s going to defeat Qiong Qi with his Eight-leaf cultivation base! How impressive!”

Nobody questioned Lu Zhou’s strength nor did they feel suspicious. To them, Lu Zhou was using a low-rank avatar to deal with Qiong Qi.

Nan Gongwei exclaimed in wonder, “Senior Ji is fighting against Qiong Qi with his Eight-leaf cultivation base. This is truly amazing.”

Although they, too, were at the Eight-leaf stage, they were beaten by Qiong Qi. Meanwhile, Lu Zhou was beating Qiong Qi up. The difference in their strength was barely imaginable.

Lu Zhou did not care about what the others thought.

Grand technique!

With a burst of movements, he appeared behind the palm seal and launched five consecutive shots of Abandon Wisdom!

The scripts for Abandon Wisdom hung between his fingers. They shone with golden radiance as they traveled behind the blue palm seal.

Bam!

The first blue palm seal struck Qiong Qi.

It immediately froze in midair. The blue palm seal stopped pushing forward as the Eight-leaf golden palm sailed forth silently.

Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!

Four consecutive strikes landed precisely.

Qiong Qi roared as it was sent flying back.

With another burst of movement, Lu Zhou appeared above Qiong Qi. He launched a blue palm down. He unleashed the same skill. When the blue palm seal was launched, he shot five more strikes in rapid succession! He kept bombarding Qiong Qi with palm seals.

The series of attacks amazed the others.

What was the Nine-leaf stage? This was the Nine-leaf stage!

Although the pavilion master was only using an Eight-leaf avatar, his shocking power was on par with a Nine-leaf cultivator.

Qiong Qi was being suppressed!

After three consecutive strikes from the blue palm, Qiong Qi cried out!

Lu Zhou gauged his remaining extraordinary power. He was only left with half, but Qiong Qi was merely injured. It was still some ways away from losing its ability to battle.

‘This might be difficult.’

“Livestock, aren’t you going to give up yet?”

Grrrr!

Qiong Qi was enraged. Its hairs stood on end as it launched itself through the air.

Lu Zhou did not use his extraordinary power. Instead, he advanced with his Eight-leaf cultivation base. When they collided, he shot up and threw a punch!

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Lu Zhou’s three punches landed one after another on Qiong Qi’s back.

Qiong Qi flipped and swept out with its tail.

Lu Zhou let out a burst of energy and defended himself with it.

Bam!

He was sent flying!

The others exclaimed in shock!

The greatest Nine-leaf cultivator was sent flying?

The cultivators looked at the battle in the air uneasily; they were growing nervous now.

‘Patriarch, you must hold your ground! Why don’t you use your Nine-leaf powers?’

Lu Zhou was oblivious to their thoughts. Even if he wanted to use Nine-leaf powers, he could not!

Qiong Qi’s stubbornness had exceeded his imagination.

Lu Zhou was fine from the tail swipe. All he did was retreat slightly.

Whizz!

He summoned his avatar again!

His 100-foot golden lotus avatar could fight Qiong Qi. It flew toward the beast.

“He’s in trouble!” the red lotus cultivator next to Nan Gongwei said.

“What did you say?”

“Qiong Qi isn’t a pushover. It’s a beast that’s out of this world. Even a Nine-leaf cultivator might not be enough to kill it.”

“You sure know a lot about it.” Nan Gongwei was starting to pay attention to the two red lotus cultivators.

They were certainly not ordinary since Senior Ji had ordered two Eight-leaf cultivators to keep an eye on them.

Nan Gongwei looked at Feng Yizhi meaningfully.

Meanwhile, Lu Zhou suddenly joined his palms together and merged with his avatar. “Golden Buha Body!”

His avatar suddenly transformed into the form of a Buha that shone with a dazzling golden light.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Qiong Qi lunged at the golden body with its claws.

The avatar opened its mouth. “Livestock!”

The power of speech!

The voice was like shocking thunder that was fired at the beast.

Qiong Qi was startled. It lowered its ears. Alas, this was the Heavenly Writing power and not an ordinary sound technique.

The energy soundwave shot forward like a sharp blade!

Bam!

Qiong Qi was pushed back by the power of speech. It did a backflip in midair and spun for more than ten circles before slowing to a stop.

Nan Gongwei, Feng Yizhi, and the other cultivators accepted this outcome without any surprise.

On the other hand, the two red lotus cultivators were shaken to their cores.

“Is he really an Eight-leaf cultivator? Why are his palm strikes blue?”

When they thought about their earlier wager, they found themselves laughable and foolish.

In the sky, Lu Zhou retracted his avatar. He only had a sliver of his extraordinary power left. If he could not intimidate Qiong Qi with this technique, the only option left was to kill it.

Qiong Qi stood still and looked at Lu Zhou. Suddenly, its ferocity seemed to vanish, and it shrank backward, cowering/

“It’s afraid!”

“Qiong Qi is scared!”

“You’re amazing, patriarch!”

“Senior Ji is peerless!”

The cultivators’ shouts shocked the heavens.

Lu Zhou stroked his beard and looked at Qiong Qi expressionlessly. “I’ll give you another chance. Submit… or die.”

The cultivators were suddenly hit with a realization.

“Senior Ji is trying to tame Qiong Qi! No wonder he refrained from killing it!”

“I see! In order to tame Qiong Qi, one would have to beat it to submission. When the major sects went to the Four Forests to capture beasts in the past, the elites were always the ones who went in first to deal serious injuries to the beasts!”

Since Lu Zhou had many mounts, they thought his actions made sense.

Grrrr!

Qiong Qi bared its fangs, clearly reluctant. Then, it charged forward again.

After the strike from the power of speech, its hair had flattened, making it look like a wet dog. It no longer looked as savage and fierce as before.

Lu Zhou snorted and said, “I’ll show you my true strength today.” He was once a peak Eight-leaf cultivator. Even when both Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong fought together against him, they were no match for him. How could he lose to Qiong Qi?

Indeed, he had not used his true strength.

He flew forward. “Hundred Tribulations Insight!”

A 100-foot avatar appeared and pushed forward with its palms.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

The man and beast fought bravely. They moved at top speed, causing their figures to look blurry.

Nan Gongwei gulped. “Is this still the power of an Eight-leaf cultivator?”

Feng Yizhi shook his head helplessly. “When the ten great sects laid siege on Senior Ji back then, Senior Ji fought against ten Eight-leaf cultivators! I thought the cultivation world had exaggerated, but now, I don’t doubt the veracity of that matter.”

The red lotus cultivator beside him said incredulously, “He fought against ten opponents when he was at the Eight-leaf stage?”

“Are you surprised?”

“Uh… No, no, no. Just like you, I think it’s an exaggeration.” After saying this, a thought appeared in his mind and he asked, “May I ask if Senior Ji is the one who killed Jiang Wenxu?”

Nan Gongwei scoffed before he said, “The nine-leaf Jiang Wenxu duped the 12 allied nations to invade Great Yan. Senior Ji single-handedly defeated Jiang Wenxu in Lou Lan and the five allied nations. Then, he traveled eastward and reached the eastern side of Heaven’s Moat in 15 minutes where he defeated the seven allied nations! To think you’re asking about such a well-known fact. So… you’re not from around here, are you?”

“…” The man’s heart sank.

Nan Gongwei grabbed the man’s arm.

Feng Yizhi looked at the other person and unleashed an energy seal.

How could they dare to move with Eight-leaf cultivators keeping an eye on them?
