This Earth Is A Bit Fearsome

The golden dragon claw blasted away with its formidable might, tearing the air before it apart and bringing about a terrifying force of the fist that shot over 100 meters away.

The might of the punch from Lu Xuan blasted right before Count Dracula without any of its force being diminished. One could easily gauge just how powerful that punch was.

The pupils of many, especially those who were at Invincible Vajra Level, contracted. All of them were almost shocked to the core.

That punch from Lu Xuan was just too terrifying.

The feat of blasting the force of a punch at a target over 100 meters away was something that not even Invincible Vajras would be capable of.

Any Invincible Vajra capable of blasting anything just ten meters away with the force of their punch would be considered the best among the best. It was near impossible for most to extend their aura that far away, and yet maintain its integrity, after all.

Anyone being able to do that with a target over 100 meters away was considered godlike. No one would even dare to imagine such a feat to be possible.

Yet, that punch from Lu Xuan was actually able to move something over 100 meters away without its form or force diminishing at all.

One could imagine just how shocked the crowd was upon seeing that.

What was even more terrifying was that it was Count Dracula, who was at the receiving end of that punch.

Count Dracula’s pupils contracted slightly.

“That’s fast.”

The Count realized that while speed was his forte, the speed that Lu Xuan displayed was actually every bit on par with his, and it felt as if Lu Xuan was actually the faster of the two.

The Count then shouted, “Soul-reaper Claw!”

He clawed at the sky right away. Everyone around saw that the air was torn apart right away. It was as if the air around was a piece of cloth.

The blood-colored claw clashed with that golden dragon claw right away.

Boom!

The clash between both parties was frightening.

However, the Count realized something was off right away. That punch from Lu Xuan was simply too powerful, so much so that the attack seemed invincible, and even his blood-colored claw ended up being shredded. His attack was unable to do anything against that golden dragon claw from Lu Xuan at all.

He had no choice but to throw over a dozen more, bringing about bloody mists, which sprayed everywhere, hitting that golden dragon claw in an instant.

He was finally able to crush that golden dragon claw, preventing it from hitting him squarely.

“That was close.”

The Count was unable to help but let out a sigh of relief, still reeling from Lu Xuan’s punch, which he saw as powerful enough to seriously injure him.

His expression turned extremely grim. It took him an immense effort to bring about that many attacks, and yet he failed to tear apart that punch, which Lu Xuan seemed to have pulled so effortlessly. The power difference between both parties was very apparent.

All the others felt the scene to be surreal, after seeing it with their own eyes.

The Count himself was already scary enough as he was. His Soul-reaper Claw alone could easily split regular battle tanks into two, after all.

That claw attack of his was terrifying.

Yet, when compared to what Lu Xuan pulled, that attack from the Count seemed hardly worth mentioning.

Everyone had been concerned if Lu Xuan had what it took to stand against the Count, but after seeing how effortlessly Lu Xuan was able to pin the Count down, they all felt very relieved.

However, the shock they felt was still greater than relief. All wondered just how Lu Xuan managed to become that powerful. Even if he were to begin training since he was still in the womb, there still would have been no way he could be so frighteningly powerful.

All who were present were immensely capable fighters themselves. Despite being an order of magnitude below Lu Xuan, they were nonetheless able to see that something was off with him.

Be it in terms of the size of Spiritual Qi reserve or its quality, Lu Xuan trumped that of the Count, and the difference was so huge that it was needless to even compare.

An old man and a young woman were locking their gaze at the two who were fighting from afar, hiding among many others who were watching the fight.

Xiao Ying, the young woman, said to her master with glee, “Well, Master, I told you that Lu Xuan isn’t some stupid *ss who would just come here out on a whim. I did say he is actually powerful enough to stand here.”

That shriveled old Taoist Priest, Zhang Sanfeng, had his jaw gaping as he said, “This is impossible. Count Dracula is of the Celestial Realm, sure, but just how did Lu Xuan manage to make such a breakthrough? One can easily tell that his powers are every bit of that of the Celestial Realm. So it’s thanks to those peaches, then?”

He was unable to process what was happening before his eyes. All of this felt like some ancient legend to him.

The expression of everyone else present was more or less the same. All of them simply hoped that Lu Xuan was able to hold the Count back somewhat, instead of losing right away.

However, judging from the looks of things, Lu Xuan fared way better than just being able to survive; his powers actually seemed to be more powerful than Count Dracula’s.

Just how did he train to reach such an extent? Is he really a monster?

Lu Xuan attacked once again.

“Is this all you’ve got, Dracula? Gosh, you’re quite a letdown.”

Lu Xuan laughed away and took a step forward, disappearing from the steps in an instant. He then appeared right before the Count at the next moment.

He then threw a punch nonchalantly, causing the entire place to rumble.

That was a result of the force of his punch breaking the sound barrier, causing shockwaves to spread all over the place.

The Count did not underestimate Lu Xuan as he had mere moments ago. That initial attack Lu Xuan pulled was more than enough to make him sense Lu Xuan’s unbelievable spiritual reserves, which seemed limitless to him.

“God said, let there be darkness.”

The Count then chanted something, and an incredibly huge black shield appeared right before him. The force of that punch blasted onto that black shield and was immediately dissipated.

“It’s gone?”

The crowd saw how that earth-shaking force of a punch dissipated without a trace. They then looked closer and saw him carrying a black leather book in his hand.

The leather book looked intricately crafted. It harbored ebbing dark energy. It took all of them only one look to know that it was something of immense evil.

“Isn’t that… isn’t that the Dark Bible told in legends? That’s definitely it. It couldn’t be anything else.”

“Dark Bible? Could that even be possible? Wasn’t the Dark Bible lost ever since the Covenant of Darkness got razed by the church? Wasn’t it said that the Dark Bible was already destroyed by the church?”

“That thing couldn’t be anything else. It’s definitely the legendary Dark Bible. I’m sure of it.”

There was an increasing number of cultivators who were knowledgeable enough to tell of the true nature of that book in the Count’s hand. It was none other than the Dark Bible told in legends, which was crafted using human skin.

The boundless dark power harbored within was said to be enough to rival that of the true Bible, making it a terrifying item.

“This is most probably it. This is most probably the Dark Bible told in legends. Do you guys see that huge gash on the cover? And that the whole book looks tattered? It fits the rumor saying that the Dark Bible was severely damaged by the church.”

“The Vampiric Empire was part of the subsidiary forces of the Covenant of Darkness, so it was hardly surprising that the Dark Bible fell into the hands of those in the empire.”

Everyone was raving about that book all of a sudden.
