Chapter 901: What Kind of Arrow is This?
The royal guards looked at the 450-foot Thousand Realms Whirling avatar that had not been seen since 2,000 years ago.
Under the sunlight, the golden astrolabe spun, causing people to shudder. The 36 triangles on the astrolabe would flash from time to time.
A sage-like old man standing near the avatar looked down at Xiahou Sheng in front of the Supreme Heaven Palace.
Xiahou Sheng stared at the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar with wide eyes. The last bit of doubt in his heart had vanished without a trace at this moment. Even if he had high status and commanded 100,000 royal guards, there was only one thought in his mind at this moment: Run!
Swoosh!
Xiahou Sheng did not care about his reputation at all. He fled at lightning speed, leaving afterimages behind.
On the contrary, the two death warriors by Xiaohou Sheng’s side did not run. They advanced after crying out in unison, “Lord Xiahou, run!”
The two death warriors hurriedly manifested their avatars.
Two 100-foot red lotus avatars appeared in the sky and charged forward. The two avatars that were only a quarter of the height of the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar looked incredibly tiny.
Lu Zhou did not even want to look at them as he charged forward.
The eyes of the two death warriors reddened as they began to burn their seas of Qi. However, before they could do much, Lu Zhou casually pressed his hand down, launching two golden palm seals from the sky.
Abandon Wisdom!
At the same time, the two Eight-leaf cultivators chose to commit suicide by detonating their energies.
Boom! Boom!
“Ding! Killed a target. Reward: 500 merit points. Domain bonus: 500 points.”
“Ding! Killed a target. Reward: 500 points. Domain bonus: 500 points.”
The ground outside of the Supreme Heaven Palace was paved with the best marble. At this moment, nothing was left except for two 100-foot-long palm-shaped holes. In the centers of both holes was a lump of fleshy pulp.
With a flash, the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar disappeared.
With such a big commotion, the experts in the royal palace rushed over immediately. In Great Tang’s royal palace, the experts were as numerous as the clouds in the sky.
When these experts came to the side of the two holes, they were disgusted by the remains they saw inside. Even these cultivators who killed without batting an eye could not help but frown when they saw this scene.
...
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou flew at low altitude with his Thousand Realms Whirling avatar in tow. He was inwardly surprised by Xia Housheng’s speed.
He continued to fly, not paying any attention to the eunuchs and palace maids in the royal palace.
Everyone who saw the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar, regardless of age or gender, fell limply to the ground and trembled in fear.
Some palace experts who came gave up immediately when they saw the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar. Many of them were convinced the rumors that Yu Chenshu was killed by a Thousand Realms Whirling expert was true at this moment.
Lu Zhou looked at the ghostly figure fleeing from him and brought the Golden Taixu Mirror out. He shone the mirror on the figure.
A beam of light shot out and illuminated the figure immediately.
Through the Golden Taixu Mirror, Lu Zhou saw a black shadow on Xiahou Sheng’s body.
The Puppet Slave Technique? Was it a puppet that was skilled in escaping?
If Yu Chenshu’s puppet was good at defense and was invulnerable to swords and spears, then Xia Housheng’s puppet moved like the wind and the shadow.
Xiahou Sheng trembled. He looked at his puppet that was revealed under the beam of light and was frightened out of his wits. “Quick! Quick! Quick!”
Lu Zhou shook his head slightly. If he continued forward, he would leave the range of the royal court. He came to an abrupt stop.
At this moment, many people outside of the royal court could see the top of the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar at this moment.
Lu Zhou raised his left hand. In the next moment, Unnamed appeared in his hand. With just a thought, it transformed into a bow.
When he was at the Ten-leaf stage, Unnamed’s power was comparable to flood-grade weapons. Now that he had grown stronger, Unnamed’s power would only increase and not decrease.
Lu Zhou held the bow that was twice the height of an adult and nocked an energy arrow with his right hand. Both the bow and arrow were much thicker than those he used in the past.
Whoosh!
The energy arrow whistled in the air as it shot out. Its tip shone with a blue light after it had been imbued with the supreme mystic power.
It only took him one breath to complete this series of actions. He watched the arrow sail in the air.
Meanwhile, the sound of wind whistling in the air caught Xiahou Sheng’s attention. As he frantically ran for his life, he felt chills on his back so he turned to look. “A Godly Archer?”
However, a joyous expression appeared on Xiahou Sheng’s face when he saw the palace wall in front of him. Contrary to expectations, he did not jump over the wall. Instead, he brought his puppet with him and ran into the wall.
A grid-like formation lit up on the wall.
Whoosh!
In just a moment, an opening appeared on the wall.
Just like that, Xia Housheng passed through the wall that was dozens of feet thick and appeared outside the wall.
The opening closed, and the formation flashed once more.
Xiahou Sheng said ecstatically, “I’ll be the first person to escape from a Thousand Realms Whirling expert!”
Just as he turned around to look at the towering palace wall...
Bang!
He turned around and took a glance at the towering city wall.
The energy arrow pierced through the wall that was dozens of feet thick and destroyed the formation on it.
The energy arrow accurately pierced Xiahou Sheng’s heart without any deviation in its course.
Xiahou Sheng’s body stiffened as he grunted in pain!
“...”
A dumbfounded expression could be seen on Xia Housheng’s face as he stared at the hole in the wall. He could even see the Supreme Heaven Palace through the hole! How was this possible? What kind of arrow was this?
After a moment, Xiahou Sheng lowered his head and looked at the arrow sticking out of his chest. He could feel his life draining from his body as blood flowed out.
At the same time, the blue light on the tip of the energy arrow that stuck out of Xiahou Sheng’s back disappeared. On the other hand, the energy arrow did not disappear.
“Run, run, run...” Xiahou Sheng desperately urged the puppet in his body. Alas, there was no movement from his puppet at all. An indescribable fear welled up in his heart at this moment. ‘The puppet... is dead?’
Xiahou Sheng did not know how this was possible. If the puppet is dead, why was he hurt? Nevertheless, he still felt like he had a breath left in him and wanted to escape.
At this moment, Lu Zhou’s indifferent voice rang from above. “No one can escape from me.”
“Ding! Killed a puppet. Reward: 6,000 merit points.”
The puppet was different from the Birth Chart. Puppets prolonged their masters’ lives, making their masters durable. However, faced with absolute strength, even if the puppet sacrificed its life, it would not be able to absorb all the damage.
Blood continued to gush out of Xiahou Sheng’s wound as he looked at the sage-like old man standing on the palace wall.
Lu Zhou withdrew the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar before he struck with his palm.
The scripts for Abandon Wisdom appeared around fingers before a dazzling golden palm seal shot out.
Boom!
It did not fall to the ground but shot forward at the height of an adult.
A wave of energy swept across the nearby buildings.
Fortunately, there were not many people around. Nevertheless, the huge commotion drew many red lotus cultivators over. They watched the commotion from afar as they discussed among themselves. Naturally, none of them dared to get closer.
“Who’s that old man on the palace wall?”
“There’s someone on the ground!”
“No, wait, there are two people on the ground!”
At the same time, Lu Zhou thought the palm strike would definitely kill Xiahou Sheng’s life. When the dust settled, he looked down.
A person was standing next to Xiahou Sheng at this moment. He stood with his hands on his back, and a smile appeared on his face as he said, “We meet again...”
