Chapter 434 - Advent of a True Dragon (1/2)
Once he made a breakthrough into the fifth tier of the Divine Treasure Realm, every cell in Lu Xuan’s body was transforming at a staggering rate.
Cultivation itself was about transforming one’s state of life.
Lu Xuan then felt hungry. Every single cell in his body seemed to be shouting that they needed nourishment to replenish the energy he needed to maintain his evolution.
He popped yet another Divine Treasure Pill right away, which was transformed into a powerful surge of energy feeding every single cell in his body.
Every single cell in his body felt like a Taotie, a legendary beast known for its insatiable appetite, taking in all manner of energy to replenish themselves.
Every single pore on Lu Xuan’s body was opened simultaneously, sucking in all the spirit qi in the air around him.
While he was at the place where he was rendered undetectable from the world itself, he was able to go as far with his training as he pleased.
He only needed to keep growing his powers.
“Three days… I only have three days to gain enough power to fight that old dragon!”
Lu Xuan wore a serious expression. It was risky for him to force the old dragon to come to the world earlier than expected.
However, he simply did not want to delay the matter any further. Things would have only become more difficult if that old dragon were to fight at its best.
By then, that old dragon might be able to fight to its heart’s content. That would have been a true threat to him.
What Lu Xuan had currently done was forcing the old dragon to break through the seal and coming to the Earth by sheer force of will, which had diminished its power considerably.
According to what Lu Xuan knew back in his past life, that old dragon’s powers were at least at the ninth tier of the Divine Treasure Realm despite currently not being at its peak condition.
Despite the means that Lu Xuan had at his command, he remained unlikely to win over an enemy that was much stronger than him.
Forcing the old dragon to break through its seal would result in the old dragon being severely damaged. Worse still, it still had to deal with the limitations put on Divine Treasure Realm beings by the Earth itself.
According to his estimations, that old dragon would be no higher than at the sixth tier of Divine Treasure Realm by then. Even if it were to be able to maintain its powers at the seventh tier, its powers would still have been rendered less than 10 percent of its peak condition.
That meant that that would be the best time for Lu Xuan to kill that old dragon.
Despite being rendered to less than 10 percent of what it used to be, that old dragon’s powers would remain almost invincible on Earth in the planet’s current state.
Lu Xuan immediately resumed his training.
Meanwhile, the aftershock brought about by the emergence of countless sea monsters did not dissipate with time.
Countless people were rendered silent as all manner of statistics regarding losses suffered were reported.
Even the ‘pacifistic’, white leftists who were most adamant in their stance of coexisting with the demons before were no longer able to maintain their stance with such overwhelming facts. While there was nonetheless still a group of the demons’ staunchest defenders, they would have little effect on the opinion of the rest of the world.
The voices of all people were united at that moment—they wanted to seek revenge.
The calamities brought about by the waves of the sea monsters by then resulted in tens of millions of human casualties. It was also the first time that humanity learned just how fearsome the sea monsters were when they attacked cities.
It was especially so with the coastal regions, which had originally been the most economically developed areas for the countries involved. Having such cities ravaged brought about huge losses to all the countries hit, even stronger ones like the US.
The Atlantic economy, which was known to be the largest in the world, suffered a calamity like no other. One could even say that the attacks had brought an economic regression by at least 10 years.
People of the other regions became very terrified due to what happened. Real estate values in coastal regions began to suffer staggering, sharp drops.
What was even more terrifying was that people were spreading the latest satellite images all across the Internet, which showed that a huge claw was seen extending out of a fissure in the air.
