My disciples are all villains.

Chen Fu slowly raised his hand.

The waterfall seemed to freeze for a moment as a bead of water turned into a water sword and shot out.

Then, Chen Fu pushed his hand out.

Swoosh!

The waterfall began to flow backward, forming water awls that hung upside down and pierced straight into the nine heavens.

Then, the water sword tore through the void toward Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou could feel the power of force unique to Saints. It was indeed far superior to that of a Venerable Master. Nevertheless, this move of the Great Saint was not very remarkable; it was just returning to the basics and relying on the power of the Dao.

Lu Zhou cast the power of sight and saw the water sword. If it were not for his divine power, he would not have been able to see the water sword at all. Everything seemed to slow down as he moved slightly to the side to dodge the water sword.

The water sword flew past Lu Zhou and circled back to him.

“Golden lotus?” Chen Fu’s voice rang out.

In just a blink of an eye, Chen Fu appeared in front of Lu Zhou and pressed his hand against Lu Zhou’s chest.

Lu Zhou frowned as he felt a strange force trying to devour him. It was as though he was about to be dragged into a bottomless abyss.

‘Impeccable Card.’

Buzz!

The Golden Buddha’s Body was not big, it was just enough to shroud Lu Zhou’s entire body. The dazzling Golden Buddha’s Body kept the devouring force at bay.

Clank! Clank! Clank!

Thump! Thump! Thump!

What sounded like morning bells and evening drums rang in the air, causing the entire Autumn Dew Mountain to tremble.

…

At the foot of the mountain, the cultivators who had come to visit raised their heads one after another. They looked at the mountain peak in confusion.

A loud bang sounded before the barrier of Autumn Dew Mountain trembled. Then, it suddenly expanded, sending all the cultivators outside the barrier flying back.

Chen Fu returned to his original position as well.

Lu Zhou looked at the chessboard and asked, “In your opinion, who won?”

Yan Mu and Hua Yin: “…”

“This…” Chen Fu hesitated for a moment. He thought he might be embarrassed because he was a Saint, but since he was a Saint, how could he not have this bit of magnanimity? Hence, he said, “I lost.”

“Ah?” Yan Mu fell backward.

Hua Yin’s eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at his master.

Chen Fu said, “In the nine domains, there isn’t anyone who’s able to dodge all three moves. Even someone from the Great Void wouldn’t have been able to dodge it as perfectly as you did.”

Chen Fu thought Lu Zhou would thank him, and with that, everyone would be able to keep their dignity.

Contrary to Chen Fu’s expectations, Lu Zhou said, “They’re just petty tricks. If I were to truly use my strength, I’m afraid I’d hurt you.”

“…”

Yan Mu’s eyes rolled back. ‘I’m going to faint.”

Chen Fu laughed, looking like an amiable old man. His laughter sounded exceptionally happy. He did not give an excuse nor defend his loss. A loss was a loss.

Lu Zhou said, “The method of resurrection.”

Chen Fu nodded. However, his voice was filled with regret as he said, “There’s indeed a method to resurrect the dead that’s out of this world. It’s a cultivation method that defies the heavens. Alas, humans can’t cultivate it, not even I can.”

“Not even you can do it?” Lu Zhou frowned.

“There are things the heavens forbid. These things are almost impossible to achieve. For example, reversing time and resurrecting the dead,” Chen Fu said, “More than 30,000 years ago, I traveled everywhere. I left my footprints all over the nine domains. I was a beggar, a peddler, a soldier, a woodcutter, a high-ranking official…”

“…”

‘Why do all experts like talking in such a manner? It’s extremely boring…’

Finally, Chen Fu said, “When I was in the black lotus domain, I heard about something that could bring the dead to life. This thing is called the Resurrection Scroll.”

“The Resurrection Scroll?” Lu Zhou asked skeptically.

“Rumor has it that it can break the shackles of heaven and earth. It can defy the will of heaven and grant eternal life. Once you use the scroll, you’ll suffer heaven’s wrath,” Chen Fu said.. Then, he paused and said in a lowered voice, “If you’re not careful, you’ll be consigned to eternal damnation.”
