Lu Zhou dove into the abyss. No obstacles could stop him; even the power of the abyss seemed to retreat in fear. He made his way to the center of the earth, easily passing through the abyss. Soon enough, when he arrived at the place where the seawater met the end of the abyss, he saw the golden and square merit stone.
Lu Zhou flashed and appeared in front of the merit stone before he said, āThe Great Maeltrom is the abyss, and the abyss is the earth. Like flowers growing by the water, I finally found you.ā
The energy that rushed over from all directions was easily repelled by Lu Zhou with just a wave of his hand.
Lu Zhouās hand landed on the dazzling merit stone as he said, āAll living things have meritsā¦ā
Each side of the merit stones had a grid of nine boxes, and each box was a character.
Lu Zhou imbued the merit stone with his divine Dao power. Years and years from the past flashed through his mind immediately. He saw countless lives on this land returning to the abyss, back into the merit stone. Everything has an origin and a destination.
Lu Zhou saw the openings on the merit stone that were supposed to hold treasures. After thinking for a while, he formed a few treasures with his divine Dao power. They were the Heavenly Dao Flag, the Great Stone of Natural Law, and the Scales of Justice. Then, he filled three openings with the three treasures.
ā¦
On the lands, trees began to grow swiftly and wildly.
Primal Qi returned to heaven and earth.
...
As soon as cultivators from the nine domains sensed the return of the Primal Qi, they greedily absorbed the Primal Qi.
ā¦
In the Evil Sky Pavilion.
The members rose to their feet and walked out, looking at the sky. Their bodies recovered swiftly, and their skin was no longer dull like before. All of them began to age backward again.
āItās back!ā
āItās back!ā
ā¦
Lu Zhou looked at the merit stone and asked, āWhy do you want to stop eternal life?ā
Naturally, there was no response from the merit stone.
Lu Zhou sighed. āPerhaps, I should have destroyed you back then. If there were no cultivation, that problem wouldnāt exist.ā
After a moment, Lu Zhou said, āUnnamed, return to your place.ā
Buzz!
Unnamed flew out and entered the center opening of the merit stone.
When Lu Zhou filled up all ten openings, the merit stone glowed brightly with a golden light.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Zhou waved his hand. He carved a character above each of the ten openings: Hai, Shang, Sheng, Ming, Yue, Tian, Ya, Gong, Ci, and Shi.
After that, Lu Zhou stood with his hands on his back, waiting for the changes.
When the merit stone flashed, Lu Zhou revealed a satisfied smile on his face.
Then, the complete power of the merit stone burst forth, completely engulfing Lu Zhou. Then, the power flowed along the abyss toward the earth and to the nine domains and the Endless Ocean.
With that, everyoneās cultivation returned as well.
ā¦
In the sky above the Evil Sky Pavilion.
Streaks of light appeared, attracting the members of the Evil Sky Pavilion.
Soon enough, Yu Zheng appeared from the first streak of light.
The members of the Evil Sky Pavilion were overjoyed. They bowed and called out, āGreetings, Mr. First!ā
Yu Zhenghai looked around in a daze. He raised his arm and lowered his head to look at himself. He felt as though he was in the darkness for a very long time, but somehow, he had now returned to the Evil Sky Pavilion. He exclaimed, āIām back!ā
Following that, Yu Shangrong emerged from the second streak of light.
It did not take long before Duanmu Sheng, Mingshi Yin, Zhao Yue, Ye Tianxin, Si Wuya, Zhu Honggong, Little Yuanāer, and Conch all appeared in the sky as well.
āGreetings to the ten disciples of the Evil Sky Pavilion!ā
Lu Zhouās ten disciples looked at a loss as though they had just woken up from a long dream. All kinds of feelings welled in their hearts as clarity returned to them. Although they did not know what happened, when they saw everyone, they revealed joyous and satisfied smiles on their faces.
The ten disciples looked at each other and smiled.
Since their master was not here, their Eldest Senior Brother had the highest seniority.
Hence, the nine disciples bowed to Yu Zhenghai first.
āEldest Senior Brother!ā
āSecond Senior Brother!ā
They continued to greet each other according to seniority.
āLittle Junior Sister.ā
After the ten disciples finished bowing and greeting each other in the sky, they laughed.
Upon seeing this, the other members of the Evil Sky Pavilion laughed as well.
This was the first time in a long time that the ten disciples of the Evil Sky Pavilion were all together.
ā¦
In the Evil Sky Pavilion.
The sun set, and night fell.
When Little Yuanāer flew up to the sky, she saw her fellow disciples. She asked curiously, āEldest Senior Brother, Seventh Senior Brother, why is the moon not in the sky?ā
Si Wuya smiled and replied, āItās hiding.ā
āOh,ā Little Yuanāer said and did not ask for an explanation. Instead, she asked, āWhen will master return?ā
Si Wuya replied, āThe day the moon returns to the sky will be the day master returns.ā
āSeventh Senior Brother, how do you know everything?ā Little Yuanāer asked.
Si Wuya smiled as he looked at his fellow disciples. Then, he said, āThatās because I saw a fragment of masterās memories from the Skynet Map.ā
ā...ā
ā¦
Nearly 30,000 years later.
The human alliance managed to drive all the fierce beasts back to the Unknown Land.
Cultivators from the Great Void and a number of cultivators from the nine domains migrated to the Unknown Land, building cities there. Its prosperity was no less than the Great Void of the past. Mankind did not like the name āGreat Voidā so they called it the New World.
There were a large number of cultivators who treated the golden lotus domain like the Holy Land. Everyone knew the reason for this. As such, the golden lotus domain became the leader of the domains and the New World.
ā¦
In the main hall of the Evil Sky Pavilion.
Si Wuya asked, āEldest Senior Brother, the ten Great Void Seeds in the New World have matured. Do you want to bring them back?ā
Yu Zhenghai said, āLet nature takes its course. If master were here, I believe heāll do the same as well.ā
Everyone nodded.
āItās been 30,000 years. I wonder whereās master nowā¦ā
āAs long as master doesnāt return, the Evil Sky Pavilion will not move.ā
ā¦
Three days later.
At night.
A bright moon appeared in the sky.
Little Yuanāer, who still remembered Si Wuyaās words from 30,000 years ago, did not see her master so she complained about Si Wuya for three whole days. She also cried for three whole days.
ā¦
One morning.
In the huge gazebo in the Evil Sky Pavilion.
A few female cultivators were seriously cleaning the place when a breeze blew over.
At some point, an old man with white hair appeared sitting in the gazebo with his eyes closed.
When the female cultivators looked over, they recognized him immediately. They were surprised and happy. In the next moment, they fell to their knees and called out, āGreetings, Pavilion Master!ā
However, despite their loud voices, the old man did not open his eyes.
After that, one of the female cultivators quickly left to report the matter.
In just a brief moment, the ten disciples and the other members of the Evil Sky Pavilion rushed over.
Yu Zhenghai, who was standing at the lead, was overjoyed when he saw the old man. He kneeled immediately and called out, āDisciple greets master! Iāve been awaiting masterās return!ā
Subsequently, Yu Shangrong, Duanmu Sheng, Mingshi Yin, Zhao Yue, Ye Tianxin, Si Wuya, Zhu Honggong, and Conch kneeled and called out in unison, āGreetings, master!ā
āWelcome back, Pavilion Master!ā the members of the Evil Sky Pavilion called out as well.
After a moment of silence, the old man finally opened his eyes. His eyes shone brilliantly, and a very faint smile could be seen on his face as he said, āIām back.ā
With this, everyone fell to their knees again.
However, Zhu Honggong rushed over and hugged his masterās thigh. Snot and tears could be seen on his face as he cried out, āMaster! I really missed you to death!ā
ā...ā
Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong did not know what kind of expression to make so they only stared at Zhu Honggong stoic expressions on their faces.
Lu Zhou looked around before he asked, āWhereās Yuanāer?ā
From behind the crowd, Pan Zhong said loudly, āMiss Ninth is here!ā
Little Yuanāer was extremely graceful. However, she was like a completely different person at this moment, and she looked like she was in a daze. When she came to the front of the crowd, she bowed. āDisciple greets master.ā
Everyone was very puzzled by Little Yuanāerās behavior.
Lu Zhou asked, āDo you feel unwell?ā
āIām fine, Iām fineā¦ I just slept for too long and had a very, very long dream. Iām just a little muddled nowā¦ā Little Yuanāer replied. At the same time, she scratched her head as though she was thinking about something.
At this time, Jie Jināan and Jiang Aijian stepped forward with smiles on their faces.
āSenior Ji.ā
āBrother Lu.ā
Lu Zhou nodded.
Jie Jināan said, āI knew youād returnā¦ā
āOuyang isnāt here?ā Lu Zhou asked.
āHeās at the white lotus domain. Heāll come over later.ā
Lu Zhou nodded. A satisfied smile could be seen on his face. Everyone was here. He began to examine everyone from top to bottom. Each time his eyes swept past a person, he would nod.
When Lu Zhou was done, Jiang Aijian suddenly smiled and asked, āSenior Ji, the new Great Void Seeds have matured. How do you plan to distribute them?ā
Lu Zhou was slightly surprised. He did not expect that 30,000 years had passed. Although he already had the answer to the question, he wanted to know everyoneās thoughts. Hence, he asked, āHow do you think it should be distributed?ā
Pan Zhong said, āThe ten disciples have profound cultivation and are all supreme beings. They can accept a disciple each, and the seeds can be distributed to their disciples.ā
āThatās a good idea,ā Zhou Jifeng said.
Yu Zhenghai shook his head and said, āIn my opinion, we should let nature take its course. After all, the Great Dao and everything else belongs to nature.ā
Lu Zhou looked at his disciples silently as they voiced their opinion. All of them had the same opinion until it came to Little Yuanāerās turn.
Little Yuanāer squatted on the ground and said, āWhy donāt we give the seeds to our future disciples?ā Then, she used her finger and began to write on the ground.
āLovers pine for each other, lamenting the cold night.ā
Everyone nodded in appreciation of the poem. Some gave Little Yuanāer a thumbs-up to praise her, and some said it was a good poem.
Lu Zhou recited the poems as well. However, when he recited it for the second time, he suddenly realized that something was wrong. He recalled the poem that referred to his disciples. In the very beginning when he had come across that poem, he had noticed it was in fact part of a poem from Earth.
āThe bright moon shines on the sea; from far away we share this moment together.ā It corresponded to the characters Hai, Shang, Sheng, Ming, Yue, Tian, Ya, Gong, Ci, and Shi, which also corresponded with the names of Lu Zhouās ten disciples.
From Lu Zhouās memory, he knew the second line of the poem was, āLovers pine for each other, lamenting the cold nightā, which was exactly what Little Yuanāer just wrote. In the ancient language, the characters that corresponded to this poem were Qing, Ren, Yuan, Yao, Ye, Jing, Xi, Qi, Xiang, and Si.
Lu Zhouās expression and tone turned solemn as he asked, āYuanāer, how do you know the two following sentences?ā
