Chapter 1140 - A Never-Seen-Before Astrolabe

Chapter 1140: A Never-Seen-Before Astrolabe

Upon seeing the tail that seemed to flash with electricity, Lu Zhou frowned slightly. Without thinking, he struck with an ordinary Deadly Strike Card. A vortex appeared in his palm immediately.

Following that, a strange scene appeared.

The fog and vitality energy that were originally converging upward began to converge toward Lu Zhou’s palm like a vortex that was spinning in the counterclockwise direction.

Subsequently, a golden palm seal that increased to the size of the sky flew out.

Boom!

The golden palm seal landed on the Devil Fish-like fierce beast. It let out a heart-wrenching cry as it fell from the sky.

At this moment, Lu Zhou leaped up. Unnamed in the form of a sword appeared in his hand, and a streak of blue light appeared as he slashed the sword across the fierce beast’s chest. He moved his hand, and the ink-color Fiend Monk’s Hand Seal penetrated the fierce beast’s chest before it pulled the life heart out of the fierce beast’s chest.

The fierce beast was like a weak goshawk facing a terrifying monster as the palm seal ruthlessly tore the fierce beast’s life heart out of its chest, causing people’s hearts to shake in terror. The palm seal was sometimes golden, sometimes blue, and sometimes black.

Wei Jingye and Wei Jiangnan gulped and thought in unison, ‘This… He’s an expert!’

Lu Zhou’s movements were fluid. He held the life heart and returned to Lan Xihe’s side at lightning speed. Then, he said, “Let’s go.”

At the same time, the fierce beast continued falling from the sky.

In the cultivation world, the strongest ruled.

“Ding! Killed a target. Reward: 8,000 merit points.”

“Senior, wait for me!” Wei Jiangnan and Wei Jiangye called out when they regained their senses. They followed Lu Zhou and Lan Xihe and flew away.

Using the Sun, Moon, and Star Wheel, Lan Xihe burst forth with speed and vanished before everyone’s eyes.

Lu Zhou. “…”

Lu Zhou turned around and glanced at Wei Jiangnan and Wei Jingye who were chasing after him and said with a straight face, “I’ll wait for you.”

Wei Jiangnan and Wei Jingye called out as they quickly flew past Lu Zhou, “Thank you, senior.”

Following that, the duo vanished without a trace as well.

Lu Zhou used the supreme mystic power and Di Jiang’s ability. With that, his flying speed soared immediately. In just a blink of an eye, he overtook Wei Jiangnan and Wei Jingye.

When the duo saw Lu Zhou’s astonishing speed, Wei Jiangnan transmitted his voice to Lu Zhou, “Senior.”

Lu Zhou came to a halt and hovered in the air. He turned to look in the direction where the fierce beast was falling.

Boom!

The sound of the fierce beast hitting the ground rang in the air.

Wei Jiangnan and Wei Jingye instinctively stopped and turned around to look.

“It seems like the other beasts aren’t following us…”

“That’s right. We should be safe for now. Restrain your aura.”

The duo hovered in the air as they restrained their auras. However, when they looked up and saw Lu Zhou standing with his hands resting on his back, they were reminded of the shocking palm strike earlier. When there were no other noises from the distance, they bowed and said in unison, “Please forgive us brothers for being blind.”

Lu Zhou looked at the two of them indifferently and asked, “Do you know why I’m here?”

The duo shook their heads. Whatever the reason Lu Zhou was here, they were sure it was not for the mystic life grass. Why would an expert personally come here just to dig up the mystic life grass?

“The Li Lis.” Lu Zhou pointed at the Li Li’s nest in the distance. “I’m looking for something that has something to do with the Li Lis.”

“Senior Lu just saved us. If it’s within our capabilities, we’ll definitely do our best to help you,” Wei Jiangnan tactfully said.

“Have you seen Lu Wu?”

‘Lu Wu?’

The duo was shocked again; they knew Lu Wu was a beast emperor. In fact, they were not afraid of beast kings at all. They could easily kill beast kings in another place. However, this was the Unknown Land. Killing a beast king would cause a commotion. If they attracted the attention of a beast emperor, the consequences would be unimaginable.

“Lu Wu isn’t here. Senior Lu must have come to the wrong place… It’s said that Lu Wu was tamed by a mighty figure a long time ago and became a mount for that person. After that person fell, Lu Wu returned to the mountains, never to be seen again. Lu Wu’s intelligence isn’t inferior to humans’ so it knows how to avoid humans’ detection. Previously, there was a rumor that someone had seen traces of it near the eastern abyss of the Unknown Land. However, no one knew where it went…”

“The eastern abyss?” Lu Zhou furrowed his eyebrows.

“To fly from here to the east, one has to fly for at least five years without sleep and rest. This is based on someone who has 10 Birth Charts,” Wei Jiangnan said.

To think that the Unknown Land was so vast.

Buzz!

Lan Xihe appeared near Lu Zhou at this moment. She looked in the direction where the beast king had fallen and understood what was going on immediately. She said in surprise, “The commotion didn’t attract the fierce beasts to us?”

Wei Jiangnan said, “If I’m not mistaken, the beast king must have died before it even landed on the ground. Beast kings are all territorial. The fierce beasts there are only low to mid-rank fierce beasts. Since the beast king is dead, there’s no reason for them to chase after us…”

The beast king had died with a palm strike as well so the commotion was contained and did not spread. It was a combination of good luck and the beast king’s quick death that they did not attract much attention.

Lu Zhou looked at Wei Jingye and Wei Jiangnan with his hands on his back and said, “If you can help me with two things, I definitely won’t mistreat you.”

“Please speak, Senior Lu,” Wei Jiangnan and Wei Jingye said in unison.

“First, find Lu Wu’s whereabouts. Second, investigate Qin Moshang’s situation. I’ll give you talismans to contact me, and you can take your time to investigate these matters,” Lu Zhou said.

Wei Jiangnan shook his head and said with an apologetic smile, “If we’re discovered to possess talismans not from the green lotus domain, we’ll be severely punished. Please forgive us. As for the second matter, I can tell you about it now…”

“Speak.”

“After losing a Birth Chart, Qin Moshang returned to the Qin clan. I heard he was so angry that he fell ill for seven days… Then, for some reason, he seemed to have become enlightened. He went to Venerable Master Qin’s place to cultivate in seclusion. He’s petty and would seek revenge for the slightest grievances. If Senior Lu is the one who destroyed his Birth Chart, then Senior Lu has to be careful. Nevertheless, Venerable Master Qin is said to be someone who distinguishes right from wrong and is highly respected by others. With him around, Qin Moshang won’t dare to act presumptuously,” Wei Jiangnan said.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Rustling noises rang from the duo’s bodies.

With this, Wei Jiangnan hurriedly bowed and said, “I’m sorry, but we have to report back now.”

Lu Zhou said, “Report back?”

Wei Jiangnan sighed and said, “If we want to survive, we can only rely on others. If we had a choice, we wouldn’t have risked our lives just to search for the mystic life grass.”

“Alright, I’ve never been one to force others. Since you missed this opportunity, it can only be said that you have no fate with fortune,” Lu Zhou said.

Wei Jiangnan was stunned by these words.

At the same time, Wei Jingye kept tugging at Wei Jiangnan’s sleeve.

Wei Jiangnan was in a daze as he recalled Lu Zhou’s palm strike and sword attack. Seeing Lu Zhou was about to leave, he hurriedly called out, “This junior has a request. I hope Senior Lu will agree to it.”

Lu Zhou stopped his tracks and asked, “What is it?”

“I know this request is a bit excessive, but I’d like to see your astrolabe, Senior Lu,” Wei Jiangnan said.

“As you wish.”

Buzz!

Lu Zhou raised his hand. His supreme mystic power burst forth as a blue astrolabe appeared. The astrolabe was like a bright moon during a dark night, illuminating the world. The patterns on the astrolabe flashed dazzlingly. The astrolabe only expanded a few meters in diameters before it vanished.

‘Is it golden or blue?!’

Wei Jiangnan and Wei Jingye were stunned and confused. They had heard about the golden lotus domain, but they had never heard anything about a blue lotus domain.

At this time, even Lan Xihe wore a complex expression on her face as she looked at Lu Zhou.
