Chapter 310 - Killing the Crone (1/2)

The Crone’s control of the ambient primordial qi was stripped away by Lu Xuan almost instantly. Lu Xuan’s mental powers were focused and solidified to an eerie level. It was to such an extent that the Crone could train for several centuries more, and she would still have no way of winning against Lu Xuan in this regard.

“Some mental powers right there indeed.” Zhang Fashan looked at the two in midair and naturally realized what they were doing.

He was able to tell from the way the primordial qi was being returned to normal and then boiling shortly after that it was an effect of the two wrestling control of the ambient primordial qi from each other.

However, the Crone utterly lost to Lu Xuan in that match as soon as she brought about the challenge.

Initially, he thought that Lu Xuan was unable to win at the control of primordial qi compared to the Crone, judging by how she kept bringing blasts after blasts of her massive palm attack, while Lu Xuan simply retaliated using either Golden Dragon’s Claw or his sword aura blasts.

While it was not something apparent to those of Celestial Realm, control of ambient primordial qi was more or less seen as the key deciding if one won or lost at Airborne Realm.

The power an Airborne Realm was able to bring was directly proportionate to their mastery of primordial qi.

At the same time, having superior control of ambient primordial qi also meant that one could, at the same time, weaken the control of the primordial qi of one’s opponent.

The effects worked in tandem.

Zhang Fashan thought that the Crone had an undeniable edge at that from the very beginning.

While it looked as if Lu Xuan was overwhelming that Crone, in truth, he deemed that Lu Xuan’s control of primordial qi to pale in comparison to that of the Crone.

There was nothing anyone could do about it.

He thought that it was hardly surprising at all.

There were no shortcuts to control of primordial qi, after all, and there was only one way one could strengthen one’s mastery in that department—continuously hone one’s mental strength.

The stronger one’s mental strength was, the better one could manipulate ambient primordial qi around them.

There was no room for shortcuts at all.

Regardless of how powerful Lu Xuan was, where the strength of one’s Spiritual Qi could be continuously stacked through the use of potions and pills, he could only gain better mastery of primordial qi through continuous honing of his mental strength.

As such, Zhang Fashan thought that it was very, very normal for Lu Xuan to lose to the Crone in such a match.

However, he realized how wrong he was as soon as Lu Xuan made his move, wrestling control of primordial qi from the Crone without any trouble at all.

That Crone seemed to have lost control of the ambient primordial qi almost instantly. She discovered right there and then, to her horror, that every inch of Lu Xuan’s skin seemed to be emanating a sheen of some kind.

That sheen was none other than that of one with inborn Taoist aptitude.

Not only was the Crone unable to compare to Lu Xuan in that regard, but even those who were above Lu Xuan in terms of their level of power could only have fought him to a standstill.

She knew just how powerful one with inborn Taoist aptitude could be, and what Lu Xuan showcased was just the beginning.

Lu Xuan spent no time hesitating as soon as he wrestled control of ambient primordial qi from the crone. He lashed out with his hand right away. That golden dragon claw was brought down onto the Crone like a mountain.

The Crone was thrown hundreds of meters away instantly. She looked almost as if she had been teleported from one spot to another.

Boom!

The area she occupied mere moments ago was devastated by Lu Xuan through sheer brute strength.

Lu Xuan then continued without hesitation, chasing after the Crone and launched yet another attack with his huge hand right away at the Crone.

The Crone kept being pushed back while she attempted to wrestle control of primordial qi from him.
