Chapter 2

When he saw that his cultivation base was at the ninth-tier of Body Tempering, Lu Zhou shook his head helplessly. Unfortunately, Ji Tiandao’s cultivation base was gone. Apart from being old, the body was only left with the strength of Body Tempering.
2Ji Tiandao’s Peak Form cards?
2“System, does it mean Ji Tiandao’s peak form in his strongest period?”
2The system did not answer; it looked like that was the case.
Three cards…that was an hour and a half.
In a state when his strength and cultivation base had declined, Ji Tiandao could still draw with the top ten experts, so it should not be difficult to beat them in his peak form.
‘A Reversal Card that can give me some life force?’
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou had been studying the system.
After using the Reversal Card, he felt that his body was rejuvenated. Although it was still not as energetic as that of a young man, it was enough for him to move around.
He rose to his feet and breathed as he performed a set of simple exercises. After getting familiar with his new body, he sighed, “It’s still a little too old.”
In his previous life, no matter how he worked overtime and stayed up late, he felt at most thirty years old. He was not used to being so old all of a sudden.
Fortunately, his remaining life was restored to 313 days.
Lu Zhou noticed that he could exchange cultivation techniques, weapons, and Reversal Cards in the shopping mall. It meant that he could have inverse growth.
313 days were far from enough. He wanted to return to a level where he could at least move normally. It felt really bad to look so old.
Or, maybe he could reverse to his youth? However, he did not have too many Reversal Cards at the moment. He could only consider that after solving the immediate crisis.
He feared that no other dimension traveler was stuck in this kind of a situation.
9“It’s a pity that the gift items are too few. It seems that some brains are needed to solve the immediate crisis.” Lu Zhou kept pondering. A moment later, he slowly got up and walked out of the gazebo.
3The scorching sun was dazzling. Although Ji Tiandao’s memory provided him with many references, when he saw it with his own eyes, he was still amazed by the clear blue sky.
Boom!
There was an explosion, and the whole Golden Court Mountain shook.
Lu Zhou frowned slightly. Were the cultivators already impatient to break the shield?
Boom!
He looked up at the invisible shield.
Golden Court Mountain was truly a treasured land. The powerful restriction was strengthened exponentially by the terrain, and it was very difficult to break even by experts of the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…
In the blink of an eye, the four disciples came in front of him. They were taken aback when they saw Lu Zhou standing straight.
“Master!”
“Master!”
“Master!”
“Greetings, Master!”
The last one to greet him was his ninth disciple, Ci Yuan’er.
Lu Zhou saw the smile on her comely face.
8“Master, you seem to be getting younger,” Yuan’er said with a smile.
“Come here!”
“Aye.”
The scenes of Ji Tiandao doting on Ci Yuan’er emerged in Lu Zhou’s mind. He did not expect the old villain to have a gentle side. He lifted a big old hand and gently patted his ninth disciple on the forehead.
“You’re still the nicest.”
7Duanmu Sheng, who stood aside, said, “Master, they are trying to break the shield. Please let me fight them! I’ll certainly slaughter them all.”
Lu Zhou’s glance crossed Duanmu Sheng’s eyes.
The gaze made Duanmu Sheng’s heart tremble, and he swallowed as he lowered his head, not daring to look directly at the other again.
“I already have a plan to drive back the enemies. Come with me!” Lu Zhou said faintly.
“Understood!”
After regaining some life force, Lu Zhou’s legs became more agile.
His four disciples followed respectfully behind him as he walked toward the outside of Golden Court Mountain.
Outside of the mountain, thousands of cultivators lined up in dozens of small groups: some stood on flying swords, some on chariots, and some on the ground.
Various banners were waving in front of them—the Heavenly Sword Sect, the Duanlin Branch of the Confucian School, the Primal Sect of the Dao League…
“Work harder, everybody! The shield is not going to last for long! The villainous patriarch of Golden Court Mountain must be seriously wounded, which is why he dares not to come out now. If it were in the past, Golden Court Mountain would have never suffered such humiliation in silence!”
“Indeed! He must be too scared to come out and face us! Let’s continue to challenge them to a fight!”
A chariot drifted through the sky, from which came ringing out a voice, “Listen up, the villains of Golden Court Mountain! You are surrounded! Quickly come out and face your death!
