This Earth Is A Bit Fearsome

Lu Xuan was able to make all who were watching the battle gasp, given how he was able to subtly and discreetly defuse that terrifying sword aura attack with just a single simple wave of his hand.

While there was no doubt that Huang Yuanfeng’s powers were very frightening, but what Lu Xuan demonstrated at the moment was even more so.

It at a level that no one dared to even imagine.

Lu Xuan, as who he was at that moment, looked like someone who did not belong in the mortal world at all to all of the spectators. It was as if there should not have been something as terrifying as he was in the world to even begin with.

“What gave you the courage to challenge me, I wonder. Your powers at fourth tier of Divine Treasure Realm, perhaps?” Lu Xuan crossed his arms in front of his chest and looked as if he did not even bother with that attack that came before. “I could tell you right here, right now, that if that was all you were able to bring to the table, you’d definitely meet your doom today.”

Huang Yuanfeng’s expression became slightly more serious, and he stopped looking as if Lu Xuan was utterly beneath him like how he first did.

That smooth, effortless-looking attack that Lu Xuan executed made him wary.

Huang Yuanfeng then wore a cold smirk on his face and continued, “Lu Xuan, did you really think that what I did back then was all I’ve got?”

“Doesn’t matter to me if that’s your best shot or not. You’re no match for me to begin with after all. You might stand some chance at beating me if you’re actually of higher level than I am. But, given that you’re only of the fourth tier of Divine Treasure Realm, I’m telling you that you’re gonna die right here today.”

Lu Xuan kept his arms crossed before his chest and elaborated plainly.

What he said had utterly baffled everyone around the world who were watching the battle at the moment.

The way Lu Xuan put it, it seemed as if the fourth tier of Divine Treasure Realm was as cheap as something one could find on the shelves in supermarkets—the items were there so long as one bothered looking.

He made it sound as if people who were of higher level than Lu Xuan were everywhere.

It was clear to all of the spectators that those notions were absurd as they came.

The way Lu Xuan saw it however, was that the fourth tier of Divine Treasure Realm was ultimately nothing much, and that people of such a level was ultimately not some invincible fighter.

“You’re that confident of yourself, eh? It’s too bad that the mortal world still doesn’t allow for someone that powerful to exist then!”

A glint of very directed hostility was seen in Huang Yuanfeng’s eyes when he looked at Lu Xuan.

The way he saw it, Lu Xuan deserved to die tens of thousands of times over.

Clang!

A tremendous gust of sword aura burst from within Huang Yuanfeng, shooting to the heavens and enabling every single pore on his body to emanate sword aura.

Huang Yuanfeng actually used his own body as a furnace for cultivating sword aura, and all of that power had been nurtured in his body all the time. It was only at the current moment that all of that sword aura was about to burst.

The sword aura continued to climb upwards and the beam actually shot to the air over a hundred meters high.

It was as if someone bursting with sword aura on the ground had such sword aura shooting up to the topmost floor of skyscrapers.

Huang Yuanfeng was no longer a human at that moment; he had become a sword that was drawn from its scabbard, and such a state was the manifestation of being one with the sword.

That was an extremely high level of swordsmanship. Melding one’s body with the sword enabled one to reach even further than that, as Huang Yuanfeng’s own body had become a sword and he no longer actually needed a weapon.

He could become the supreme swordsman found in the entire world, armed only with his very own body.

He was also very confident of his own powers. He was completely able to burst with unimaginable power at the moment.

Boom!

Huang Yuanfeng did not hold back that time. That terrifying sword aura that was several hundred meters tall was brought down in the blink of an eye, making as if the attack was about to cleave the sky apart in a split second.

The attack came right down on Lu Xuan.

Huang Yuanfeng locked his gaze of Lu Xuan, putting his will to work locking down Lu Xuan, so as to prevent the other man from escaping.

He was free of all messy thoughts at that moment, with his thoughts focused on the blade in his hand killing all of his enemies before him.

On the other hand, Lu Xuan looked completely unfettered in the face of such frightening attack. His hands remained on his back while the attack was coming down. He then clenched his fist in an instant, with golden Spiritual Aether oozing from the cracks between his fingers.

A golden dragon roared at the heavens and then shot out right away from behind him in a split second.

Roarrrr!

That dragon roared as soon as it emerged, making it look as if it was a real dragon flying in the sky. Lu Xuan’s will of the fist continued to boil as the dragon tore down everything before it.

“You think you’re really that powerful, Huang Yuanfeng? You think that you’re some bigshot eh? Let me tell you that you’re nothing before me!”

Lu Xuan chuckled coldly.

“Do you seriously think you have what it takes to fight me just because you’re at the same level as me? I’d have you know that you stand no chance even if you’re someone from a sect or clan isolated from the world.”

“I’ll pulverize you with a single punch!”

That golden dragon that Lu Xuan conjured clashed head on with that terrifying blade of light that was several hundred meters tall.

Booom!

The might of the fist clashed head on with the might of the sword.

Both powers entangled with each other at that very moment they clashed.

That blast of sword aura looked like it was able to cleave the world into two and shatter everything before it.

That might of a punch felt as if it was a golden dragon out to tear the world apart, as it tore everything before it as it climbed to the heavens.

The terrifying shockwave of the clash spread out in all directions, kicking up waves of dust that were tens of meters tall.

That young ape, who was recuperating from his injuries at the side, was almost sent flying at that moment. All of his pride was crushed right there and then.

Be it Huang Yuanfeng or Lu Xuan, both possessed a level of power that he was unable to even begin to compare to.

While he had no doubt that he would be able to catch up to the two of them in the future, but the fact remained that he would not have stood any chance at the moment, fighting against either of them.

What happened at that moment also made him realize why Huang Yuanfeng dared to throw his weight around and go about places with his business, despite knowing that Lu Xuan was around.

He also understood why Huang Yuanfeng knew that Nanjing was an extremely perilous place, yet still dared to come all alone.

That was all made possible by his overwhelming power.

The level of power the two of them possessed enabled them to ignore any rules standing in their way.

In comparison, that young ape was still held back and bound by rules, and that fact alone spoke volumes of the difference between him and the two clashing head on at the moment.

Both of them were so powerful that he was unable to take on either of them.

However, despite both of those men being exceptionally powerful, that was not to say that both of them were truly equals.

He saw how that golden dragon conjured by Lu Xuan’s power of the fist charged and clashed with that incoming beam of sword aura.

Contrary to what many speculated, it was not Lu Xuan’s golden dragon that collapsed first, but that beam of sword aura that was brought about by the art of the sword known to be second to none in terms of offense.

Boooom!

The clash continued to shake the world.

That beam of sword aura crumbled inch by inch.

That golden dragon that Lu Xuan conjured continued pressing forward, without giving any chance for Huang Yuanfeng to even recuperate at all.

That golden dragon roared at the heavens as it pressed froward, shattering that terrifying sword aura attack that was several hundred meters long.

The outcome was clear. Despite both men being at fourth tier of Divine Treasure Realm, Huang Yuanfeng’s powers were still nowhere near that of Lu Xuan.

That golden dragon head straight for Huang Yuanfeng with overwhelming force.
