My Disciples Are All Villains

"It's done?"

This was out of Lu Zhou's expectations. He did not expect to successfully activate four Birth Charts and upgrade his avatar at the same time.

The mental pressure vanished, and he felt very comfortable and relaxed. It almost felt as though he was flying.

Lu Zhou flipped his hand. "Jump."

The blue avatar leaped a meter up. When it landed, it returned to normal again.

Lu Zhou moved his hand, and the blue lotus flew up. The blue avatar vanished, and only six leaves could be seen spinning in the air. He controlled the six leaves and shot them at the table.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Then, the leaves returned to the lotus.

The table was reduced to rubble.

Lu Zhou knew this could not gauge the blue avatar's strength. He was only testing its mobility and his ability to control its various parts. He found them quite satisfactory. With the Heavenly Writing power, there was no need to consider the avatar's strength for now.

He did not think his Eighteen Chart golden lotus avatar would be able to withstand a strike from the blue avatar that had been imbued with the divine power.

Lu Zhou turned his attention to his golden lotus. He looked at it as though he was admiring a perfect piece of art. The patterns on the lotus seat were exquisite.

"18 Birth Charts… Let's go out and test it to see how stable the realm is…"

In fact, he could test it out in the training hall. For safety's sake, he could also go to a remote place and test its power. If there was nothing wrong, he could go to the Sky Hook Ropeway. If it was not too stable, he would return to this place and stabilize it more. This was to ensure it would be easier to pass the Venerable Master Trial.

The third Birth Trial was also known as the Venerable Master Trial, for obvious reasons. After passing the Birth Trial, one would be a Venerable Master.

Lu Zhou looked at his remaining lifespan.

Remaining lifespan: 10,387,556(28,459 years)

"Venerable Masters have 30,000 years of life… Then, there are 12,000 years of life…" Lu Zhou muttered to himself, calculating his lifespan. If it were not for him recycling life hearts, he would have more than 30,000 years of life now. In any case, 28,000 years were not bad.

However, Lu Zhou still needed to be cautious. With the blue avatar that was like a vampire, 28,000 years was nothing. When the blue avatars entered the Thousand Realms Whirling stage, 28,000 years might not even be able to fill the gap between its teeth.

Then, Lu Zhou waved his hand, decreasing the speed of the Pillar of Impermanence to 100 times faster again.

…

In the time it took to blink, a figure appeared at the northern peak near the southern training hall.

"The abilities of the four Birth Charts actually resonate with each other…"

The speed from the two Ling Hous' life hearts was a pleasant surprise. This speed was unprecedented if one did not consider the power of the Dao.

"What's He Luoyu's ability?" Lu Zhou wondered as he extended a strand of consciousness toward He Luoyu's position in his Birth Palace.

As soon as it lit up, the other three positions would instantly resonate and transfer their powers over.

Buzz!

Ten clones of Lu Zhou appeared immediately.

"He Luoyu has one head and ten bodies so its ability is to create ten clones?" Lu Zhou shook his head. These clones could only be used to confuse laymen, but they were ineffective against experts.

Lu Zhou looked at the Moon Whale's position; it was also his 18th Birth Chart. He muttered to himself, "I've activated six Great Birth Charts in total with the life hearts of Lu Wu, Yong He, Tian Wu, He Luoyu, and the Moon Whale…"

"What's the Moon Whale's ability?"

The 18th Birth Chart marked the becoming of a Venerable Master. Its importance was self-evident.

When the position lit up, it resonated with the other three Birth Charts again. Then, a buzzing noise rang in the air.

Then, the power of the Birth Chart shot up into the sky that was covered with dark clouds. A thunderous noise rang in the air as it rained down.

The aquatic lives, sea beasts and ordinary aquatic beasts alike, fled for their lives.

After a moment, everything returned to normal.

"???"

'Is that all?'

Lu Zhou frowned. He felt that his two newest Great Birth Charts were really lacking in strength.

After a moment, he gauged his cultivation base and found they were relatively stable. He nodded in satisfaction.

"At least those 500 years didn't go to waste."

Lu Zhou looked north. It was time for him to visit the Sky Hook Ropeway. He would pass his Birth Trial there. He glanced at the southern training hall for a moment. He did not plan to bring anyone with him, not even Whitzard.

With just a flash, he flew toward the Soaring Peaks where the Sky Hook Ropeway was located.

…

Soaring Peaks.

One peak was on the left and the other was on the right. They pierced through the clouds and towered into the sky.

The Sky Hook Ropeway connected the two peaks, and it was one of the best places to train in the green lotus domain.

Hundreds and thousands of cultivators could be seen on the mountainside of the southern Soaring Peak. Many young cultivators hovered in the air as well. They were all trying to make their way across the Sky Hook Ropeway.

"It's too difficult. I only managed to advance one-tenth of the length this time. I'll try to advance further next time."

"The sect master said we have at least one-fourth of the ropeway before we're qualified to compete for the positions of core disciples…"

"Don't feel disheartened. After all, only Venerable Masters can travel the length of the ropeway. There's no way we can do that so whatever we do is good enough…"

Everyone nodded.

Behind the group of young cultivators, an old man leaned against a huge boulder and drank wine as he looked at the young cultivators. His robes were thin and simple, making him look like a vagrant. Despite the state of his clothes, he was clean. His hair was thick, and he seemed to be in high spirits. Although his face was filled with wrinkles, he did not look haggard.

A young man walked over and asked, "Old man, you've been here for more than ten years. Why don't you give it a try?"

The old man said with a smile, "I'm waiting for someone."

"Waiting for someone? Who? The time you used to wait is enough for you to challenge the ropeway a few times. It's a good opportunity to challenge yourself and learn from your failures…" the young man said.

The old man continued to lean against the boulder as he said with a smile, "I'm waiting for a fated person…"

"A fated person?"

"This person will definitely be able to travel the length of the ropeway," the old man said.

Upon hearing this, many cultivators laughed.

"You really know how to joke! A Venerable Master would have to be bored to come over here and play. You're saying you're waiting for a Venerable Master, right?" the young man asked.

The old man only laughed and did not say anything else.

At this time, a figure flew over from the distance. In just a few breaths, it was nearing the Soaring Peaks.

Since the figure's speed was too fast, the young cultivators could not catch its speed.

The old man's smile widened. "He's here!"

When Lu Zhou approached the Soaring Peaks, he deliberately slowed down. When he was halfway up the mountain, he saw a platform jutting out from the mountain wall where several hundred cultivators were gathered. He flew over immediately.

Since no one knew Lu Zhou, no one stepped forward to greet him. Moreover, many people would come and go in this place.

After landing on the platform, Lu Zhou looked up and sighed. "So this is the Sky Hook Ropeway?"

"That's right."

The old man walked to Lu Zhou's side.

Lu Zhou looked at the old man suspiciously and asked, "You're here to challenge the ropeway as well?"

The old man smiled. "No, I came here to wait for you."

"Hm?"

"I'm waiting for a Venerable Master."
