The concentric jade seemed to be stimulated by the people from the Research Sky Court who willingly channeled their Primal Qi and cultivation into it.


When the elders from the Sky Martial Court saw this, they shook their heads.


“Perhaps, this is the chance God has given us to atone for our sins.”


Who owed Luo Xuan the most in the world? The answer was undoubtedly the Sky Martial Court.


Qiu He shook his head and sighed.


About ten elders standing behind Qiu He sighed one after another as well.


The Sky Martial Court truly owed Luo Xuan too much.


Lu Zhou did not stop the people from channeling their Primal Qi or cultivation into the concentric jade.


With the support of the people from the Sky Research Court, the concentric jade finally accumulated enough energy. It was like a ripple on the calm surface of a lake as the energy surged into Luo Shiyin’s body.


Buzz!


A dazzling red lotus appeared under Luo Shiyin’s feet.


At the same time, the people from the Sky Research Court felt a powerful energy rushing toward them. They staggered back and fell to the ground, drenched in sweat, as they looked at Luo Shiyin.


Following that, the red lotus began to spin.


One leaf.


Two leaves.


Three leaves.


It spun as it sprouted leaves.


Four leaves.


Five leaves.


Six leaves.


“This…”


Apart from Lu Zhou, everyone present on the scene was thoroughly baffled. They had never seen a lotus sprouting so many leaves in such a short time. Although Conch’s cultivation base was not low before, they could feel her cultivation base was rising way above what it was.


Seven leaves.


Eight leaves.


The red lotus did not stop sprouting leaves.


Even Little Yuan’er could not help but feel slightly envious. The Little Junior Sister whom she usually took care of and taught had caught up with her in such a short time.


After the eighth leaf sprouted, the red lotus’ spinning speed increased slightly; it did not stop.


“Nine leaves!”


Everyone held their breaths as they watched this miraculous scene.


Lu Zhou also did not expect his youngest disciple would end up being the one who improved the fastest. Although he was mentally prepared, he was still slightly taken aback by this.


However, the surprise did not end there.


The red lotus did not disappear. All of a sudden, the red lotus burst into flames. A hint of blue could be seen streaking across the red flames.


Everyone cried out in surprise once again, “Karmic fire!”


“It’s a red lotus with karmic fire!”


After reaching the Nine-leaf stage, a cultivator would have a chance of obtaining and mastering the karmic fire. Cultivators who had mastered the karmic fire would undoubtedly possess the strength to crush their peers. It was like a boost.


This time, even Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong were a little envious. They had once claimed they were invincible among Eight-leaf cultivators when they were at the Eight-leaf stage. Now that they had reached the Nine-leaf stage, they still hoped to be invincible among Nine-leaf cultivators. However, how could they be invincible among their peers when they did not possess the karmic fire?


Unless one possessed the karmic fire, one would never be able to understand the karmic fire even if one were able to study it.


When the karmic fire burned, it emitted a formidable energy.


Lu Zhou was reminded of the scene in the Sky Wheel Rift Canyon when he saw this. At that time, he had activated all his defenses and protective energy but was still unable to block the scorching heat of the lava. If Lu Li did not appear in time, he might have lost even more of his Critical Block Cards.


Lu Zhou’s thoughts strayed as he wondered if the lava was also karmic fire? Whose karmic fire was it then? He was pulled back to his senses when a familiar noise rang in the air. He looked up and saw Luo Shiyin’s red lotus had sprouted its tenth leaf.


“A Ten-leaf red lotus with the karmic fire!”


Everyone was understandably shocked.


“Unbelievable! Truly unbelievable! Even if she possesses Luo Xuan’s concentric jade now, it’s impossible for her to sprout ten leaves in such a short time! This doesn’t make sense!” He Zhong muttered to himself.


Wang Dachui, who was standing nearby, laughed. “What’s so shocking about this? What’s impossible? Aren’t all of you geniuses? What’s so strange or impossible if a genius who’s able to sprout ten leaves in a short time appears? If you think about it, it’s not strange at all.”


Indeed. The geniuses from the Sky Research Court were often called lunatics. They had created miracles when many people said it was impossible. It seemed like they were not used to it now that someone else was creating the miracle.


Lu Zhou looked at the red lotus with the karmic fire. His heart was unusually calm as four words appeared in his mind. “The Great Void Seeds.’



Apart from the Ten-leaf cultivation base, Luo Xuan had the Great Void Seed. With the help from the Sky Research Court and the elders from the Sky Research Court, it was not surprising she had reached the Ten-leaf stage. However, he did not expect Luo Shiyin would obtain the karmic fire.


At this moment, Luo Shiyin slowly opened her eyes. Her gaze swept across the Sky Martial Court, and an inexplicable sense of familiarity welled up within her. She lowered her head and looked at her body. Her clothes, hair, arms, five fingers. She discovered everyone was looking at her as well.


Luo Shiyin felt as though she had slept for a long time and had just woken up from a dream and returned to reality. She was aware now that she was Luo Shiyin, not Conch. She was the little girl whom Luo Xuan raised.


After who-knew-how-much time had passed, Little Yuan’er called out tentatively, “Conch? Little Junior Sister?”


“Ninth Senior Sister?” Luo Shiyin turned to look at Little Yuan’er. Her eyes seemed to lose their darkness as she did so.


“Luo Shiyin,” Lu Zhou said. Although her appearance had changed drastically and Conch was no longer Conch, a child would always be a child in his eyes.


Lu Zhou’s voice seemed to cause Luo Shiyin to regain her senses. The red lotus under her feet disappeared, and she descended on the ground. Then, she kneeled respectfully and said, “Master…”


“Do you remember now?” Lu Zhou asked.


Luo Shiyin revealed a smile and nodded. “Yes.”


“That’s good. Rise,” Lu Zhou said.


“Thank you, master.” Luo Shiyin rose to her feet and straightened her back before she turned around slowly and bowed at the people from the Sky Research Court. “Thank you, everyone…”


“You’re welcome!”Huang Yu took the lead and waved his hand.


“It’s nothing!”


Lu Zhou took out a delicate ancient zither and said, “I’ll return this to its original owner.”


The people of the Sky Research Court stared at Lu Zhou in shock.


“It’s the Nine String Zither!”


Someone laughed. “It’s truly the Nine String Zither!”


No one had seen it before, they had only heard of it.


However, when the people from the Sky Research Court saw it, they recognized it immediately.


Wang Dachui moved closer to it as he said in a daze, “It’s the Nine String Zither…”


Xia Changqiu said, surprised, “Rumor has it that the most perfect weapon the Sky Research Court had created is called the Nine String Zither. Is… Is this it?”


The zither was very exquisite and small. It was hard to imagine that it was the most perfect weapon the Sky Research Court had ever created.


Huang Yu asked, “Why is the Nine String Zither with Senior Lu?”


“I took it back from Jiang Wenxu,” Lu Zhou replied honestly.


“So, it was really Jiang Wenxu! That b*stard thief!”


The people from the Sky Research Court were furious when they heard these words.


He Zhong scoffed before he said, “With Jiang Wenxu’s ability, he wasn’t capable of stealing the Nine String Zither. I’m afraid Ye Zhen had a hand in the matter. Apart from Ye Zhen, I can’t think of anyone who could steal the Nine String Zither!”


“Birds of a feather flock together!”


“It’s our fault for being careless. We shouldn’t have given Ye Zhen the Nine String Zither to admire.”


“This ending is pretty good… If the Nine String Zither was not stolen, I’m afraid Yu Chenshu would’ve destroyed it long ago.”


Everyone nodded upon hearing these words.


When Luo Shiyin touched the Nine String Zither, she recalled when she had first seen it. She felt her heart stir. With a flick of her finger, a drop of blood fell on the zither.


“Ding! The Nine String Zither has acknowledged its owner. Owner: Luo Shiyin. Grade: Flood grade. Reward: 1,500 merit points.”


“Later, I will bestow you with a piece of the Pilgrim Song,” Lu Zhou said.


Little Yuan’er lifted her head and curiously asked, “Master, aren’t you tone-deaf? Are you knowledgeable about music as well?”


“Silence.” Lu Zhou glanced at Little Yuan’er.


At this moment, many flying beasts appeared in the sky. There were so many of them that it seemed like they had covered the sky. However, there were no huge beasts.


“The fierce beasts are here due to the sprouting of the ninth leaf earlier. Leave it to us!” Huang Yu said energetically.


After all, these people had not fought for a long time.


However, Luo Shiyin said, “Leave it to me…”


“That’s good as well. We want to watch!” Huang Yu said.


Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded. “Go.”


Luo Shiyin tapped her feet on the ground and flew up into the sky. Compared to Conch of the past, her temperament was completely different. Conch’s naivete and childishness were replaced with confidence and perseverance. Her eyes were particularly bright and determined. They were really similar to Luo Xuan’s eyes.


The Nine String Zither appeared and hovered in front of Luo Shiyin. It was shrouded in red energy. Then, she lifted her jade-like hands and pressed on the strings. Her hands swept across the zither; her fingers skillfully plucking the nine strings.


The tune echoed in the air, and the red energy rippled out into the surroundings. The red soundwave reaped the lives of the flying beasts within a 100-meter radius of the Literary Star Gate.


The flying beasts began to drop like flies from the sky.


Following that, Luo Shiyin waved her jade-like hands, and the Nine String Zither disappeared.


When everyone lifted their heads, they saw that the sky was clear. There were no signs of the flying beasts. The blue sky stretched as far as the eye could see.


The flying beasts were gone just like that? Was she not too strong?
