“Clang!”
The clanking of metal erupted, and all the crowd could see was Lu Xuan catching the incoming spear with two fingers.
If one was not at the Consolidation Realm, the effects of this terrifying attack would have been sufficient to wipe out even those at the Three Flower Realm.
Those beneath the Consolidation Realm were like ants. The dignity of the Consolidation Realm was not to be provoked; this were the foundations of the Consolidation Realm!
Those at the Consolidation Realm had the absolute upper hand over the Three Flower Realms and even the Divine Transformation Realms.
At the same time, the illusions created by this spear also vanished without a trace.
But right now, such a terrifying attack was blocked by Lu Xuan with just two fingers.
The crowd was beyond shocked.
“How is that possible?” Yang Zhuxin’s expression froze. He was well aware that he had gone all out. In order to eliminate this bastard who was threatening his status, he had utilized his full arsenal. Yet, his attack had been blocked so easily by this man.
“Yang Zhuxin, have you been eating properly?” Lu Xuan sneered from the corner of his mouth.
Lu Xuan’s words completely infuriated Yang Zhuxin.
Yang Zhuxin bellowed. He completely snapped. A horrific murderous intent overflowed from his eyes, as if it could to materialize.
“Whoosh!”
He once again launched the spear towards Lu Xuan. This time, it was even more terrifying. The spear boomed with the weight of a mountain, stirring up terrible shockwaves and even awakening the various barriers around Cloud City to absorb the attack’s reverberations.
“Clang!”
Lu Xuan raised the back of his hand and blocked the attack. In an instant, sparks exploded all over and morphed into vicious flames in the air. One could only imagine how terrifying the attack was.
Again, the offensive had failed. Yang Zhuxin wanted to launch another attack, but before he could react, Lu Xuan had appeared in front of him out of the blue.
It was as if the space between had shrunk to an inch!
Lu Xuan’s was way too fast. Like a streak of light, he had arrived before Yang Zhuxin.
Lu Xuan waved his fist.
There was no earth-shattering display of might. People did not even see how Lu Xuan made his move. They only witnessed Yang Zhuxin letting out a muffled groan before he was blasted away like a cannonball.
“Boom!”
Yang Zhuxin crashed into a building on the sidelines. The entire building was reduced to debris, and even the powerful barrier attached to it shattered within a fraction of a second.
This scene was absolutely terrifying!
Yang Zhuxin’s two consecutive attacks could not do any damahge to Lu Xuan, yet Lu Xuan’s single punch was able to knock him down.
As Yang Zhuxin struggled to get up from the ruins, everyone saw that the armor he was wearing had shattered into thin air. He was covered in blood and looked extremely miserable.
That punch did not kill him, but it had severely injured him.
Lu Xuan stood with his hands behind his back. The sight of the figure in a robe as white as the moon was pure terror.
“That was just a punch! Without any extravagant display of might, he was able to launch such an attack with just the flesh of his body. How is that possible? How did he do that?!”
Someone said with a trembling voice.
He realized that this punch Lu Xuan delivered was too horrifying.
It was not magics, it was not a spell, it was not a Martial Way, but with the might of his just own flesh, he was able to leave Yang Zhuxin in such a miserable state.
It was no wonder that Yang Zhuxin was not at all prepared. There had been no indication that Lu Xuan was going to launch this punch at all.
Without any fluctuation of energy, how could one possibly sense it?
But it was this that made Lu Xuan even more fearsome.
With just the simplest and most basic of attacks, he was able to reduce Yang Zhuxin to this state.
It had to be noted that Yang Zhuxin was an unrivaled powerhouse who was only one step away from the Late-stage Consolidation Realm!
“Lu Xuan seems completely different from the information we received!”
Everybody realized that the power Lu Xuan displayed was way above what they had heard about.
It was either he had some kind of miraculous encounter recently, or he was already extremely powerful back when he was on earth – just that he did not display them and had managed to deceive everyone.
“What is this…” In the sky, when the leader of the Xuanhuo Sect, Long Feihua, saw the power Lu Xuan displayed, an aura of solemnness surrounded him.
Reminded of a certain idea, he almost lost control of his aura.
“I! Will! Kill! You!”
Yang Zhuxin bellowed, and like a wounded beast, a terrifying aura that was enough to shake heaven and earth gushed out of his body.
Driven to desperation, Yang Zhuxin had no choice but to use a secret art to elevate his powers. In the blink of an eye, he arrived at Late-stage Consolidation Realm.
Although his advancement had been forcefully triggered by the secret art, it was enough for his power to surround Cloud City completely.
Under this circumstance, everyone knew that Yang Zhuxin was beyond infuriated by Lu Xuan. The strength that Lu Xuan was displaying at this simply had no limit.
Step by step, Yang Zhuxin advanced towards Lu Xuan the venue began to shake. All of a sudden, one could feel how imposing he was, like an omnipotent God.
What’s more, Yang Zhuxin was continuously growing stronger.
“Yang Zhuxin is getting stronger and stronger. After this battle, I’m quite sure that it’ll be no issue for him to step into Late-stage Consolidation Realm!”
Lin Ziyi’s words left many in shock.
Originally, Yang Zhuxin’s strength was ranked third among the Five Consolidations, which could be considered as average. But now, if he were to advance further, he would probably be on par with Cloud City’s City Lord.
One could consider this as luck that grew out of adversity. Being forced into a desperate situation by Lu Xuan actually brought out the full extent of his potential.
Yang Zhuxin was exuding a faint golden light from head to toe. Like a God of War cast of gold, he charged towards Lu Xuan with a spear in his hand.
Although he was only one person, his power was such that it was as if it were an entire army charging forth. Everyone’s vision blurred for a moment. In their vision they could see a bloody battlefield.
There were corpses everywhere, and blood flowed into rivers.
On the battlefield, Yang Zhuxin was the only God of War, sweeping through his enemies with an unstoppable momentum.
Yang Zhuxin’s seemed to move in slow motion although he was fast enough to unleash a sonic boom. He charged directly towards Lu Xuan, stirring up explosions along the way with his sky-shattering spear.
“Overconfident fool!”
Lu Xuan uttered these words and greeted him with another punch.
This punch prevented him from trying anything else.
No matter how strong the spear was, everything crumbled before this punch.
All illusions formed by the spear shattered. The spear was knocked away and Yang Zhuxin’s ultimate weapon fell apart.
Immediately after, Lu Xuan’s fist landed on Yang Zhuxin’s body.
“Crack, crack!”
Everyone heard what seemed like the sound of glass exploding. Yang Zhuxin’s body crumbled inch by inch, and blood spurted out.
Yang Zhuxin’s golden body was collapsing!
He had fallen!
