Lu Xuan’s form was just too splendid. The way Lu Xuan was protected by his own aura actually made that old man in blood-red attire rather envious.
That was the kind of power that he once had but was long lost at present.
That was one advantage of being youthful.
That was what countless elderly cultivators yearned for the most.
Right now, however, the old man sensed a terrifyingly overwhelming mental pressure from Lu Xuan.
Roar!
At that moment, everyone present saw that the golden dragon had suddenly torn the blood wolf in half.
Pfftt!
That old man spat out blood just as his primordial spirit was torn apart. He felt almost like his soul was being torn to pieces. That feeling was 100 times more excruciating than having one’s body shredded.
He miserably lost the fight.
There was no doubt that, physically or mentally, he was far inferior.
At that moment, his combat capacity was reduced to less than one-third of what he originally had.
Only then did he finally realize his biggest mistake.
At first, the old man in blood-red attire had never thought much of Lu Xuan; he saw the young man as someone at the Divine Transformation Realm who was little more powerful than the average cultivator. As such, he thought about using his own primordial spirit, which he thought to be apparently far more powerful, to overwhelm and then pin Lu Xuan down. In that case, he could easily dispose of the young man.
That was usually how those at the Divine Transformation Realm would bully those at the Divine Treasure Realm.
However, Lu Xuan did not just unexpectedly fend off the old man’s intimidating attack. Lu Xuan’s primordial spirit turned out to be stronger and more solid than that of the old man.
It got to the point that Lu Xuan was actually able to crush the old man’s primordial spirit with ease.
That old man’s greatest mistake was having unleashed his primordial spirit to take on the enemy by himself, as that was tantamount to have laid himself bare before the enemy.
Lu Xuan shook his head and sighed. “So, this is all you’ve got then? I guess the notorious Blood Wolf Pirate group was nothing more than a collection of bugs.”
The old man was somewhat irked upon hearing what Lu Xuan said, yet he found almost instantly that Lu Xuan had lifted his hand and sent a beam of the sword tearing at the night sky, which squarely hitting him squarely right where he stood.
That old man shrieked in pain as his body was sent flying. Everyone present saw how his body was bisected by that beam of the sword.
Hiss!
The Great Ancestors could not help but gasp at what they just saw. Lu Xuan appeared so powerful that he looked utterly harrowing.
He had disposed of that old man without breaking a sweat.
None of them would have probably even been able to take on that old man, but Lu Xuan was able to dispose of that old man so easily.
Suddenly, someone shouted, “No, it’s not over yet.”
It was only then that they discovered that one half of that old man, who was lying in a puddle of blood, was quickly sucking up all the blood surrounding it.
There was simply no way to count all the injured and dead members of the Blood Wolf Pirate group around since the very beginning of the battle.
The battles had not been taking place for long, yet tens of thousands had already died.
All those fighters were elites among cultivators; they could have been considered important members of the Xu family.
At that moment, an endless stream of blood gushed towards the old man.
Everyone could tell that it was some kind of heretic art that allowed one to absorb the blood of others to replenish one’s own.
That old man was seen standing up almost in an instant.
The lower half of his body had regenerated.
At that moment, his eyes were blood-red, which made him look even more harrowing than before.
“Die!”
At that moment, he let out an enraged roar, making the bloody aura around him even thicker, appearing like some kind of devil of blood.
The old man, who had now absorbed the blood of countless people, emanated an aura that was over twice as terrifying as he had been when he lost to Lu Xuan before.
The blood-colored aura raged on. It seemed to have distorted the heavens and leave behind a bloody cloud.
The bloody cloud loomed over everyone from the Xu family.
All the surviving members of the Blood Wolf Pirate group cheered at the sight.
Their former leader had exhibited terrifying powers just now. It didn’t matter how this power came to be. The way they saw it, the light of victory had finally shined upon them.
The way that Lu Xuan had gone about slaughtering before had shattered all of their confidence. It was so harrowing that they saw Lu Xuan as an emissary from Hell.
Roar!
That old man was on all fours on the ground as an endless bloody aura covered him. He had transformed into a massive wolf that was at least twelve meters long.
That was a kind of secret art.
The old man’s aura and combat prowess rose exponentially after he had turned into a massive wolf.
His powers were far beyond what he had been before.
Lu Xuan watched it all unfold, seemingly unfazed by what was happening. He had seen such secret arts at work one too many times in his past life. It was simply a kind of method that allowed one to transform into something else.
He saw nothing extraordinary about it.
That old man’s powers had apparently surpassed that of the second tier of The Divine Transformation Realm after he transformed, allowing him to go all the way to the level of the third tier.
While he was unable to keep himself in such a state for long, it was still a trump card that proved to be useful in critical moments.
Average cultivators who were currently at the second tier of the Divine Transformation Realm would have probably been utterly helpless against him.
It was rather unfortunate that he was fighting Lu Xuan instead.
Lu Xuan’s usual combat prowess was already comparable to those at the third tier of The Divine Transformation Realm, so he was not afraid at all.
At that moment, Lu Xuan felt that while his vision blurred for a split second, the blood wolf was already right in front of him.
That blood wolf moved like a bolt of blood-red lightning.
It was a speed unbefitting the wolf’s size, which was the size of a hill by then. That wolf actually moved somewhat faster than the fastest it moved previously.
That blood wolf opened its mouth wide and chomped down at Lu Xuan ferociously.
Swoop!
Lu Xuan disappeared from where he stood. That blood wolf’s biting attack missed.
However, everyone saw how that bite had ended up crushing the air in the area around him. It looked as if the wolf’s bite was able to crush a mountain.
Before anyone could react to what happened, however, a huge hand was seen coming out of nowhere before slapping at that blood wolf.
Boom!
That massive blood wolf was clapped in a rumble, sending it flying and then crashing hard onto the ground.
The impact caused the ground to shake slightly.
It was then that the spectators saw who had conjured that huge hand.
That wolf moved unbelievably fast, yet Lu Xuan proved to be even faster. He disappeared like a bolt of lightning and appeared out of nowhere.
Lu Xuan then grabbed at the air right away. Lightning power was then conjured and materialized into a whip.
The whip cracked down on that blood wolf, leaving a massive bloody gash behind on its body. Blood splattered as the attack connected.
