Chapter 1790: Repaying the Debt With a Light Disk Pearl (3)
The violent Primal Qi storm raged around the Sacred Temple, attracting the attention of the cultivators in the Sacred Region.
The cultivators, who were ignorant of the truth, did not know what was happening and naturally did not dare to rush over.
At the same time, hundreds of Templars rushed over and surrounded the Sacred Temple. They held up their astrolabes, illuminating the sky. There were green, golden, red, and many other colors of astrolabes. From afar, they looked like a flower garland; they were very dazzling.
The Templars did not dare to approach due to the Primal Qi storm. They could only hold up their astrolabes warily as they looked at the Sacred Temple in confusion.
“Quickly report this to the Supreme!”
“Understood!”
One of the Templars flew away like a meteor in the sky.
The remaining Templars did not dare to let down their guards. They waited for the Primal Qi storm to die down. When it finally died down, their visions became clear. They saw Lu Zhou, standing with his hands on his back, looking down indifferently at the bloody Wen Ruqing whose Dantian’s sea of Qi had been destroyed. They paled in fright immediately.
Finally, someone shouted, “Who dares to cause trouble in the Sacred Temple?”
The Templars were only pretending to be brave. In their hearts, they knew that someone who could injure Wen Ruqing to such an extent in the Sacred Temple was no ordinary person. None of them dared to approach. They only aimed their astrolabes at Lu Zhou.
…
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou’s eyes were trained on Wen Ruqing. He did not look at the Templars as he said in a dangerously low voice, “You have no business here. I don’t want to start a massacre today. Get lost before I lose my temper.”
The hundreds of Templar retreated more than 30 feet when they sensed Lu Zhou’s dangerous aura. Nonetheless, none of them left; it would be a breach of duty to leave.
Finally, another Templar said loudly, “This is the Sacred Temple! It’s not a place where you can behave atrociously!”
Wen Ruqing suddenly raised his bloody hand as he was signaling the Templars to keep quiet.
“Lord Wen?”
Wen Ruqing sat up slowly. After his cultivation returned to heaven and earth, the remnant of his cultivation was barely able to keep him alive. He almost fell before he finally managed to stabilize his body. He said with great difficulty, “It’s none of your business here. All of you, get lost!”
“Lord Wen, why?!”
The Templars were confused.
“I’ll say it again. Get lost!”
Although the Templars did not understand Wen Ruqing, none of them dared to disobey him. They retreated and watched from afar.
Then, Wen Ruqing turned to look at Lu Zhou. A relieved expression could be seen on his face as he said, “There’s one more thing I’ll return to you…” Then, he brought out a seven-colored pearl and said, “Light disk pearl…”
Upon seeing the seven-colored light disk pearl, information about it appeared in Lu Zhou’s mind immediately.
Wen Ruqing calmly said, “Back then, you gave me the light disk pearl, hoping that I’d become a supreme being as soon as possible and form a light disk. It’s a pity that I’m stupid. No matter how hard I tried, I failed to use it to form the ninth light disk…”
Wen Ruqing launched into a coughing fit before he spat out blood again. Then, he waved his hand and said, “I’ll return it to you.”
The glowing light disk pearl flew toward Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou looked at the light disk pearl silently before he said, “Do you think you’re worthy of it?”
Wen Ruqing’s expression turned sorrowful. He chuckled as tears fell from the corners of his eyes. He said, “I… I’m not worthy, and I’ll never be able to repay the favor.”
If you were born but not raised, it would be easy to repay the favor of birth. However, being raised and nurtured… It was a favor that would be difficult to repay even if one had 100 lifetimes to do so.
To Wen Ruqing, the Unholy One was a teacher and a father. The Unholy One taught him and nurtured him, imparting cultivation techniques and advice to him. How could he return such a favor? It was not enough even if he had already destroyed his cultivation.
“I’ll repay you with my life!”
Wen Ruqing spat out another mouthful of blood before he used what was left of his strength and leaped into the air. Then, whatever traces were left in his Dantian’s sea of Qi were squeezed out and flowed into the Primordial Star Formation.
With that, the Primordial Star Formation lit up again.
The seals in the air plundered and drained the energy in Wen Ruqing’s body.
Buzz!
A green avatar with eight light disks appeared.
In his current state, Wen Ruqing naturally had difficulties controlling the supreme avatar. As soon as the avatar appeared, his face distorted in pain as he began to bleed from his seven orifices.
The Templars, who were watching from afar, were in shock. They no longer had any thoughts of approaching.
Meanwhile, the cultivators of the Sacred Region grew bolder, flying closer to have a look.
“That’s Wen Ruqing’s avatar!”
“Wen Ruqing? One of the Four Supremes of the Sacred Temple? What’s going on?”
The cultivators were too far away. They could only see the avatar, but they could not see what was going on.
There was only one avatar standing between heaven and earth. There was no sign of a battle at all.
Wen Ruqing roared.
At the same time, one light disk shrank rapidly and surged into the light disk pearl hovering in front of Lu Zhou.
With that, the avatar immediately shrank by 1,000 feet. A light disk was 1,000 feet.
Following that, the second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth light disks followed in the footsteps of the first light disk. They shrank before they entered the light disk pearl.
The avatar continued to shrink.
When the seventh and eighth light disk returned to the light disk pearl, the avatar’s lotus suddenly shattered with a loud bang!
