Chapter 311 - Making Enemies with the World, So What? (1/2)

The battle ended with a clear winner.

The crone, who was an extremely terrifying figure to everyone who had seen her in action, had been little more than an insect when taking on Lu Xuan.

The spectators only realized just how ungodly powerful Lu Xuan actually was.

One could say that his powers were far beyond that of common Celestial Realm cultivators, even far beyond that of common Airborne Realm beings.

The battle and the fact that came after it, were nothing short of utterly shocking.

Lu Xuan’s powers were far beyond their imagination.

Everyone realized that with the crone’s demise and Lu Xuan’s rise to prominence, yet another even more terrifying truth was laid bare before their eyes.

The rise of the Heavenly Palace would be even far more stifling for all of them, when compared to the pressure they felt from the Special Task Force.

“I wonder, is it a good thing or a bad thing for one such figure to emerge in this era?”

“The times give rise to heroes, and heroes, in turn, make the times indeed. A golden age like this would definitely see the rise of one such prominent one.”

“This is unreal. Cultivators, when trained until reaching such a level, would be no different from gods among mortals indeed.”

Everyone remained aghast as they gazed upon the man standing airborne at the moment. The crone’s powers spiked after consuming a special pill, yet she remained incapable of fighting Lu Xuan. Many wondered who in the world at the moment, could actually take him on.

“How could one such figure emerge from Huaxia?” That master of the sword from Japan, Watanabe Kenjiro, asked while remaining befuddled.

His way of the sword was an utter joke when compared to what Lu Xuan brought about.

There was not even a need to compare.

Arthur, Deputy Commander of the Royal Knights, looked at Lu Xuan and sensed pressure of magnitudes that he had never experienced before.

It was the same with all the other Celestial Realm cultivators. All of them wore grim looks.

Regardless of how highly they all thought of Lu Xuan, none of them expected to see anything out of the ordinary from him before that battle.

However, when the crone fought and brought about terrifying powers that were utterly beyond their imaginations, yet eventually damaged and defeated at Lu Xuan’s hands, one could imagine the magnitude of shock all of them experienced deep down.

Conventional, secular powers had next to no way of keeping a cultivator of such a magnitude of powers in check.

“There definitely was not any fighter of such level even several hundred years ago, when cultivation was at its prime.”

Zhang Fashan commented.

He had experienced the heyday of cultivation hundreds of years ago, yet he never knew any such figure to have existed nonetheless.

“This is truly beyond what is fathomable to us all.”

Zhang Ao’s face was completely reddened as he stood by his master. When he lost at Lu Xuan’s hands back then, so much so that he was unable to even begin to fight, he felt frustrated and vexed, yet after seeing all of that unfolding before his eyes, all that frustration dissipated.

He realized right there and then, judging from the level of powers showcased by Lu Xuan just moments ago, that the means by which Lu Xuan intimidated him, had been child’s play in comparison.

All the fighters from the Celestial Palace base wore smiles on their faces.

That crone had been causing them tremendous stress for quite a while. The way she was able to easily cause Duan Shan serious injuries made all of them feel as if they were facing off against the Reaper himself.

Even though all of them were absolutely confident of Lu Xuan’s powers, none of them expected that he was able to kill off the crone so easily.

“I guess our Palace Lord right here would be known as utterly invincible after this battle then.”
