Chapter 573: Sprouting Three Leaves Consecutively
At this moment, Lu Zhou was oblivious to the confusion his actions brought to the four elders. In any case, he was not worried about them disturbing his cultivation due to their personal experiences. After all, whenever he went to cultivate in seclusion, his disciples knew to actively avoid him.
However, the life energy that had gathered this time was too dense. It might not be of much use to young people, but it was a treasure to these elderly people.
So far, Lu Zhou had used ten Reversal Cards. He looked at the system dashboard and saw the addition of days.
Remaining life: 25,593 days.
There were no other changes. Each Reversal Card added 500 days to his life.
If he were not in a hurry to improve his strength, he would have continued to save more Reversal Cards.
“Continue.” Lu Zhou produced another Reversal Card.
The Evil Sky Pavilion’s four elders were getting used to their surroundings. They kept absorbing the life energy that lingered in the air and did not enter the room. It was just like the saying, ‘When a man achieves the Dao, even his dogs and poultry would ascend to the heavens’.
Soon enough, Lu Zhou had already used up another ten Reversal Cards. His remaining life was now 30,593 days.
“82 years.”
He sighed emotionally. He was 18 years away from regaining 100 years of his life. For a mortal, how many 18-year periods would they have in a lifetime? Even an Eight-leaf cultivator would find these 18 years extremely precious when their lifespan was running out. 100 years would pass by in just a blink of an eye.
Lu Zhou hurriedly dismissed his emotional thoughts and continued to use his Reversal Cards.
After the ten consecutive commotions from the life energy ended, Lu Zhou glanced at the system dashboard again

Remaining life: 235,593 days.
“About 97 years.” Lu Zhou counted. “Three more years. Use three Reversal Cards.”
Remaining life: 37,093 days.
With this, he had roughly 101 years left.
He sighed in relief as he looked at his remaining life on the system dashboard.
Shortly after, the effects of the Reversal Cards began to show.
He tilted his head and looked at the strand of hair on his shoulder. A considerable portion of it was gray now. When he had first transmigrated here, his hair was completely white. Now, it was salt and pepper. He looked at the folds of wrinkles on his arms and discovered there were fewer of them now. His skin seemed more youthful compared to before.
Lu Zhou wanted to see how he looked. Unfortunately, there were no mirrors in the Evil Sky Pavilion. There was also nothing inside the room that he could use to see his reflection. He could not possibly pee inside the room and use it as a mirror.
‘Forget it. I must be a handsome old man.’
Lu Zhou stood up and stretched his limbs. He felt great.
If his remaining 16 Reversal Cards did not increase in value with time, he would have used all of them.
“Next, it’s time to raise my cultivation base.”
Lu Zhou flipped his palm.
Whizz!
A miniature avatar materialized above his palm. Two shining golden leaves spun around the Golden Lotus.
Lu Zhou focused his attention and began gathering energy. In a blink of an eye, rings of golden energy dropped down from the avatar’s waist.


Meanwhile, the four elders who were seated at the periphery of the eastern pavilion’s hall continued to absorb the lingering life energy. After a long while, the life energy finally faded away.
The four of them opened their eyes in unison.
Zuo Yushu said, “I didn’t expect big brother to gather so much life energy
 Looks like this is the limit.”
Leng Luo said, “Perhaps, the pavilion master is researching some healing technique such as the Buddhist Clear Mirror or Merciful Ark of Salvation. When the Merciful Ark of Salvation is cast, there would be a surge of life energy as well.”
“Indeed, that’s possible
 However, casting for more than 30 times in a row
 Isn’t that slightly
”
“Outrageous?”
Zuo Yushu frowned. “Badmouthing big brother behind his back? I’m going to tell on you.”
“No, no, no
 Forgive me, Senior Zuo. I was j-just joking.” Hua Wudao hastily waved his hands.
“How do you guys feel?” Leng Luo asked.
“Not bad,” Pan Litian replied, “The life energy was dense and beneficial to our Extraordinary Eight Meridians
 It can extend our lives as well. The only downside is that
 it’s not enough!”
“Old Pan, you shouldn’t be too greedy.”
As the four elders were lost in their discussion, suddenly a burst of bright light shone from the room in the eastern pavilion!
Whizz!
A beam of golden light shone from the room, stirring up a gust of powerful energy.
The four elders were stunned and simultaneously turned to look at the room.
The energy wind was not extremely strong. However, the four old individuals who were rich in experience were very familiar with this situation.
“Leaf-sprouting? The pavilion master is sprouting leaves?” Pan Litian wondered, shocked and baffled.
“T-the pavilion master is already at the Nine-leaf stage
 Is he attempting the Ten-leaf stage?” Hua Wudao’s eyes widened.
“How’s that possible?” Leng Luo hastily rose to his feet and looked at the room with a solemn expression on his face.
Zuo Yushu shook her head and said, “No, the energy wind isn’t that powerful. It’s only at the level of a Three or Four-leaf stage.”
“Let’s not make wild guesses.” Pan Litian turned around and raised his wine gourd bottle. “Once bitten, twice shy. I won’t be surprised at the pavilion master’s feats anymore. It’s better to not be overly curious.”
“You have a point.” Hua Wudao turned around as well and walked out of the eastern pavilion.
The remaining elders left in a haste as well.
“Big brother’s performance today is slightly different from usual. I think I’ll stay out here and protect big brother
”
“I’ll stay as well.” Pan Litian stood under a horizontal beam outside of the eastern pavilion.


The golden energy that burst forth was an indication that a leaf had sprouted.
Lu Zhou looked at the three leaves before himself and nodded in satisfaction.
Based on his original expectation, Lu Zhou had intended to save more merit points and leave sprouting leaves at the end. However, at this moment, his cultivation seemed to be improving at a snail’s speed.
He could always continue saving merit points. At this moment, it was better for him to earn merit points and raise his cultivation base at the same time. After all, now that he had reached the Three-leaf stage, he would not be able to raise his cultivation base through his own effort as quickly as he did before.
“Purchase Golden Lotus Leaf.”
“Ding! Spent 50,000 merit points. Obtained Golden Lotus Leaf x1.”
“Use.”
Unlike when he had sprouted a leaf with his own effort, Lu Zhou felt a surge of mystical energy as soon as he used the item. Rich Primal Qi surrounded him and quickly turned into energy before entering his avatar. Then, energy rings appeared on the avatar and descended.
Swoosh!
A shining golden leaf sprouted from the side of the Golden Lotus.
Lu Zhou’s cultivation base was now in the Four-leaf Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm!
He could clearly sense that his dantian’s sea of Qi had increased several times due to his avatar’s influence. His store of Primal Qi, similarly, had increased several times.
Lu Zhou was overjoyed. He was in no short supply of skills, experience, or knowledge. This
 this was what he was lacking in.
“Purchase Golden Lotus Leaf!” Lu Zhou commanded.
“Ding! Spent 50,000 merit points. Obtained Golden Lotus Leaf x1.”
“Use!”


The four Elders had a glazed look in their eyes as they stood under the eastern pavilion’s horizontal beam.
“Were my eyes playing tricks on me earlier?” Hua Wudao rubbed his eyes.
“I saw it, too. That was a sensation unique to the leaf-sprouting process. It’s the second time!” Leng Luo said confidently.
“Sprouting two leaves consecutively?” Zuo Yushu wondered in confusion.
“Old Pan, why aren’t you saying anything?”
“I wanted to say that it’s rare but not impossible for a cultivator to sprout two leaves at once. However, three consecutive times are impossible. Be that as it may, I’m worried the pavilion master will do exactly that as soon as I make that statement. Won’t that be too humiliating for me then?”
Pan Litian’s voice had barely faded when another burst of familiar energy surged out from the room in the eastern pavilion’s room.
Sprouting three leaves consecutively!
Pan Litian. “!!!”
The others looked at Pan Litian as though he was a foolish old man.
