Chapter 148: The Cloud-splitting Chariot

However, Lu Zhou did not see a recommendation regarding its owner. The weapons he obtained before this would have recommended owners, but this box did not.

‘Shouldn’t it recommend Zhao Yue?’ An image of Zhao Yue’s hands becoming iron hammers appeared in Lu Zhou’s mind. ‘Uh… That looks unnatural. In any case, there’s no doubt this is a treasure, and it’s not inferior to Life Cutter.’

Lu Zhou recalled the weapon and exited the hidden chamber. When he arrived in the great hall, he noticed Little Yuan’er and Zhao Yue there.

‘Zhao Yue did not return to cultivate?’

When she saw her master appearing, Zhao Yue bowed and said, “Greetings, master.”

“What’s the matter?”

“Seventh Junior Brother has sent word that the Fiend Temple’s Master, Ren Buping, is also in Tangzi Town. Moreover…”

“Say it.”

“Moreover, the descendants of the Ten Shamans are laying a Formation. They intend on taking down Golden Court Mountain’s barrier!” Zhao Yue said.

Lu Zhou was slightly startled inwardly, but his expression remained calm. He said, “Can Old Seventh’s information be trusted?”

Little Yuan’er spoke with an annoyed tone, “Seventh Senior Brother isn’t the only one who sent word. Jiang Aijian sent a letter as well confirming this. Master, look… They put on a show about making peace, and yet, they’re scheming against us. We should’ve just chopped them into eight pieces the other day.” While she cursed, she took out Jiang Aijian’s letter.

Si Wuya and Jiang Aijian notified him of the same thing at the same time… Lu Zhou stroked his beard and considered this. Everyone knew how powerful the Golden Court Mountain’s barrier was. When the ten great elites laid siege on Golden Court Mountain before this, they were helpless for a long time when it came to the barrier. However, it would be a different story if they tried to take down the barrier with a powerful Formation. Moreover, the Formation was being laid by the descendants of the Ten Shamans, and the witchcraft expert, Mo Li. With their expertise, it should not be a problem for them to undo the mountain’s barrier without anyone noticing.

Lu Zhou had to be careful when dealing with this matter. What reason could he use to act against them? He could not possibly wait until the barrier was down before he attacked them. He shook his head. ‘No. We’re the Evil Sky Pavilion! Since when do we need a reason to do things?’

Lu Zhou spoke, “Tell Mingshi Yin to hurry up. Also, bring Fan Xiuwen and the Dark Knights.”

‘In that case, we should bring the fight to them!’

“Yes, master.”

Inside Evil Sky Pavilion’s north pavilion.

Mingshi Yin led several female disciples to clean up the flying chariot.

This was the Evil Sky Pavilion’s largest flying chariot, the cloud-splitting chariot. It was narrowly oval in shape and its upper part was streamlined. It was built completely from rare materials. The chariot was more than 100 feet long and 300 feet wide. It was completely covered in Formation veins and complicated yet gorgeous patterns.

Its color was slightly dark, and it appeared ordinary at first glance. However, upon closer inspection, one would be able to see the Formation veins and ornamental patterns were carefully arranged. When Primal Qi was infused into it, they would produce a shocking effect. When the flying chariot crossed the night sky, it would seem like a falling meteor.

A small flying chariot could be pulled by beasts. However, it could only accommodate a couple of passengers and was limited in practicality. Huge flying chariots such as this one were comparable to a moving house.

Mingshi Yin stood nearby and mulled over this matter with his hands on his back. He switched between stroking his chin and scratching his head as he muttered, “How is the flying chariot going to fly when we don’t have enough hands on deck?”

To move such a huge flying chariot, they would need at least 30 Brahman Sea cultivators and five Divine Court realm cultivators. They would also need more than 20 Brahman Sea realm cultivators to rotate with the others.

It would have been impressive for ordinary minor sects to be able to send out one Divine Court realm cultivator. Brahman Sea Eight Meridians cultivators were the mainstays of these sects.

When the Yun, Tian, and Luo Sects initially joined forces, they picked more than 10 Divine Court realm cultivators out of their tens of thousands of disciples to work with Ye Tianxin to oppose Lu Zhou. However, they were killed with just a single strike. The three sects suffered a huge loss, it was impossible for them not to hold a grudge against the Evil Sky Pavilion after losing that many elites.

“You, come here.” Mingshi Yin pointed at one of the female disciples.

“Mister Fourth, your orders?”

“How many female cultivators are there in Derived Moon Palace? What’s the highest cultivation base?”

“In reply to your question, Mister Fourth, we have 10 Mystic Enlightening realm cultivators, 10 Sense Condensing realm cultivators, and 20 Brahman Sea realm cultivators.”

“You don’t have any in the Divine Court realm?”

The female disciple shook her head. We had three Divine Court realm cultivators, but one of them defected, and the other two were killed by the Fiend Temple after the Palace Master was abducted.”

Mingshi Yin felt awkward as he said, “So, even Junior Sister Tianxin’s Derived Moon Palace has defectors. I see that she doesn’t have a firm hold on her followers as well.”

“That’s why Palace Master has set a rule that those who join the Derived Moon Palace must remain chaste.”

“That’s harsh!” Mingshi Yin’s gaze was slightly complicated as he looked at the other female disciples.

The female disciple bowed slightly and went back to her work.

Mingshi Yin scratched his head again. There were only 20 Brahman Sea realm cultivators. They were still short of hands. This would make things difficult for them.

Some flying chariots had to be powered by cultivators from the outside. For this alone, the cultivators had to be capable of walking on air. The cloud-splitting chariot could be powered from within, but the problem was they did not have enough manpower.

“Mister Fourth, you called?” Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng bowed at Mingshi Yin.

“Both of you came just in time… Take a look at this flying chariot. What do you think?”

“The cloud-splitting chariot! This is a famous chariot. The pavilion master rode this chariot when he roamed the lands of Great Yan and Rongbei many years ago. His name had shocked the lands at that time.”

“That’s all good. Would you like a ride? I can tell you’re dying to get on. It’s alright, all you have to do is to help out later… No matter how good the flying chariot is, it would be a waste if it stays grounded,” Mingshi Yin said proudly.

“Uh…”

“You have something to say?”

“No, no. We’re more than willing to do it.” Zhou Jifeng and Pan Zhong hastily nodded.

Zhou Jifeng was the Heavenly Sword Sect’s first disciple. His cultivation base was in the Divine Court realm. On the other hand, Pan Zhong was from the Clarity Sect. Although these two were slightly more powerful than ordinary Divine Court realm cultivators, they were still short on hands.

‘Little Junior Sister? Forget it. Little Junior Sister doesn’t seem to be in a good mood these days.’

‘Hua Wudao… He’s now an elder of the Evil Sky Pavilion, after all. Also, he possesses a Six-leaf cultivation base. It would be insulting for a Six-leaf cultivator to be used as a flying chariot’s power source. It would also be an insult to his identity.’

“Fourth Senior Brother…” Zhao Yue hurried up to Mingshi Yin.

“What’s the matter?”

“Master is asking you to hurry up,” Zhao Yue said.

“Fifth Junior Sister, just as well. We’re short of hands here… With you here, we now have three Divine Court realm cultivators… However, I think we’re still slightly short of people,” Mingshi Yin said with a frown.

When they were still discussing this matter, Lu Zhou arrived at the north pavilion.

Apart from Lu Zhou, Fan Xiuwen and the Dark Knights, Yue Chong and Duan Yanhong, were also present. The three of them were heavily guarded. Little Yuan’er, Duanmu Sheng, and Hua Wudao flanked them. They walked abreast with Lu Zhou as he sauntered over.

The other bowed.

“Master!”

“Pavilion Master.”

Lu Zhou glanced at the cloud-splitting chariot. He nodded with satisfaction and said, “Get on.”

Mingshi Yin said, “Master, Tangzi Town isn’t far from Golden Court Mountain… Why don’t we walk there? Using the flying chariot would draw a lot of attention.”

Little Yuan’er covered her mouth and giggled. She said, “Fourth Senior Brother, are you telling master to walk?”

Hua Wudao spoke with his hands on his back. “The cloud-splitting chariot has explosive speed. I heard the descendants of the Ten Shamans are in Tangzi Town right now. They’re skilled in Grand Witchcraft Formations. This chariot can bypass the Formation’s effects… Also, it’s a great means to chase down our enemies. Grand Techniques are too taxing, after all. Since we have a flying chariot, we should put it to good use.”

“Uh…” Mingshi Yin was rendered speechless by this.

The others leaped onto the flying chariot.

Several female cultivators tossed Fan Xiuwen and the others onto the chariot.

Fan Xiuwen spoke with a sour expression, “It’s useless to bring me along. She won’t be threatened by you. Although I’m the leader of the Black Knights, life and death don’t matter to me anymore.”

“Shut up! A lowly prisoner has no right to babble on and on!” Little Yuan’er snapped.

Shortly after, everyone was in the flying chariot.

“Why aren’t we moving? Come on… It’s been a long time since I rode the cloud-splitting chariot!” Little Yuan’er urged.

Mingshi Yin shook his head helplessly. He had no choice but to bow and say, “We’re still short of two Divine Court realm cultivators to make this chariot fly.”

Lu Zhou waved his hand and said, “Mingshi Yin.”

“Yes, master.”

“You’ll take the helm. A Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm cultivator can take the place of 10 Divine Court realm cultivators,” Lu Zhou said.

“Uh…” Mingshi Yin complained in dismay inwardly, ‘No way! Why is it me again?’ He hastily said, “Master, I’m one of the Evil Sky Pavilion’s main forces. For me to power the flying chariot… isn’t it slightly… you know…”

Lu Zhou’s gaze fell upon Mingshi Yin.

“Yu Zhenghai had taken the helm for 10 years, and he had never complained… Are you more precious than him?” Lu Zhou said indifferently.

“I dare not suggest that! It’s only a thoughtless comment. I’ll take the helm right away! I’m the best at steering, anyway!” Mingshi Yin quickly corrected his attitude. At the same time, he leaped onto the flying chariot and took the helm just as he was told.

Duanmu Sheng leaped onto the chariot as well. He patted Mingshi Yin’s shoulder and said, “Hey, don’t look at me. Master has ordered me to keep an eye on our prisoners. There can’t be any mistakes. Keep the chariot steady, okay?”

“…”

‘Third Senior Brother, you seem like an honest person, but you’re dark on the inside!’ Mingshi Yin appeared to be in pain. He placed a palm on the cloud-splitting chariot’s helm.

The others took their places.

The instant Primal Qi was injected.

Whizz!

After being idle for a long time, the resonance was much more impressive than before!

The vigorous energy activated the Formation veins and patterns of the flying chariot, and the cloud-splitting chariot lit up brilliantly!

The Primal Qi exuded from the Formation veins condensed into energy which pushed against the air outside, forming the thrust.

The skies above the north pavilion seemed to stir. The huge skiff slowly rose into the air while dragging a long tail behind!
