This Earth Is A Bit Fearsome Chapter 358

Chapter 358 - Killing the Pope with a Single Slash

Everyone looked at the two who were now fighting up in the air.

All kinds of thoughts ran through their minds. Fo the chief, he was asking himself something along the lines of ‘just who the hell is Lu Xuan??’

Although everyone speculated a thing or two about how capable he actually was, everyone seemed to be compelled to reassess what they knew about him whenever he used his powers.

Most people thought what he showed every time they saw him, that what he demonstrated, was probably the most he could do. However, they were always quickly proven that he still had a lot more to show.

He gatecrashed the White House before and went on a rampage, killing three Airborne Realm cultivators as if they were flies.

Everyone simply thought that he had become even more proficient with the powers he wielded at his level. After all, he was known to have killed Airborne Realm beings a very long time ago.

Many people knew a thing or two about that battle in the South Pole, as well.

Lu Xuan ended up almost eradicating the entire Covenant of Darkness on the spot.

Despite having several Airborne Realm beings emerging among the ranks of the covenant, they were nonetheless reduced from a formidable group of people capable of taking on the Roman Curia to the likes of the Maoshan Sect and the Celestial Master Sect.

The only thing that actually set them apart from the aforementioned Sects was that they had gathered their powers from having laid the groundwork in the mundane work for over 1000 years.

However, the biggest factors among the cultivation forces were still the number of top-notch fighters present and the quality of those people. All that groundwork laid among commoners did little to bolster their power; it was far from being considered determining factors in such cases.

One could only imagine how much impact that battle in the South Pole had on the covenant.

This was exactly why many people became so wary of Lu Xuan. What they found so utterly terrifying about him was the fact that he would mark them for elimination next.

It was only at that moment where Lu Xuan slowly revealed just how much more he could bring to the table. The spectators realized that they had been naïve with their speculations of Lu Xuan’s power.

Despite being bolstered by the power of faith and making a huge leap into the Divine Treasure Realm, Pope Innocent could never truly beat Lu Xuan in combat.

After all, his own pinnacle level of combat prowess prior fell short of even taking a single swing of the sword from Lu Xuan.

Many people deemed Lu Xuan’s level of combat prowess to be truly beyond their comprehension.

The Divine Treasure Realm, man!

The Divine Treasure Realm!

Countless thoughts ran through many people’s minds.

It was worth noting that they were all considered to be the cream of the crop in their own fields and expertise. Even so, they all understood nonetheless just how difficult it would be to make a breakthrough into the Divine Treasure Realm under such an environment.

Everyone was capable of comprehending the fact that Pope Innocent successfully made a breakthrough into the Divine Treasure Realm and managed to maintain combat prowess at such a level.

However, they all wondered just how Lu Xuan managed to do the same thing. It was definitely the biggest question every cultivator currently had on their minds.

Then again, the powers that Lu Xuan displayed against the pope were still enough to make a lot of them breathe a sigh of relief.

That was because both the pope and the two-winged angel were just too headstrong with their approach; they wanted every single one of them to submit before the eyes of the public.

Lu Xuan was also quite headstrong himself, but what he did before made him look like a harmless small animal when compared to the other two.

Despite how dangerous Lu Xuan truly was, they knew well enough that anyone he targeted would not be in too much danger as long as they steered clear of his way. This didn’t apply to the Roman Curia; that religious organization would go on to stir up trouble with them, regardless of what the others thought and did.

Before this, none of them had any way of resisting the Roman Curia at all. Despite some among the representatives of cultivation forces having their own trump cards, the aforementioned trump cards could only serve as last resorts to save their own skins. They were utterly useless to stop the expansion of the Roman Curia’s forces.

At the moment, Lu Xuan was the only one who was capable of resisting the Roman Curia. He was so powerful that he was able to make sure that the Roman Curia was not an overwhelming entity that would end up unifying the entire world.

“Anything you try is futile. You will die today!” The pope continued to roar in anger. While his and Lu Xuan’s seemed to be equally matched, Lu Xuan still managed to send him flying.

Lu Xuan’s powers were proven to be utterly terrifying.

While the Dragonslayer in his hand was far from being heavy, he knew sword techniques that would practically allow him to adjust the amount of weight of the weapon whenever he wielded it.

That was the essence of a series of sword techniques. It enabled one to wield a heavy weapon as if they were a light one, then a light one as if they were a heavy one, and finally enabling one to adjust the weapon’s weight however they pleased. Changes at every stage represented all comprehension and mastery of sword techniques at all new heights.

Lu Xuan’s comprehension and mastery of sword techniques were no doubt at extremely high levels, which enabled him to wield such a light weapon as if it was a heavy one. Every time he casually swung his sword, it seemed to pack a lot more punch than what it seemed to be.

All of that was then coupled with his inherent exceptional physical resilience due to his born Taoism aptitude.

Spectators from the outside were only able to see how Lu Xuan kept sending Pope Innocent flying whenever the two clashed. However, only the pope himself knew just how much the true amount of pressure he was being put under.

Had it not been the power of faith continuously bolstering his speed at both offense and defense, Lu Xuan would have probably made short work of him a long time ago.

He had never even imagined anyone being able to actually fight him to such a fearsome level.

He initially coined his current state as his invincible state, which meant that he would be invincible in such a state.

He had taken down a great many powerful beings when he was in such a state.

There was utterly no fighter capable of fighting him when he was in his invincible state bolstered by the power of faith.

He had never experienced being so easily repelled by Lu Xuan before now.

It was at that moment that he finally understood how those whom he pounded on when he was in such an outrageous state truly felt.

It felt like the other side was utterly cheating.

That was how Lu Xuan made him feel at the moment. Be it speed, power, or movements, he had reached a level that was deemed by many to be flawless, which practically made him invincible.

It was due precisely to that, that his intent to kill the other man became even more intense. It was due precisely to Lu Xuan being so impossibly difficult to deal with, that he was unable to afford to just let Lu Xuan off the hook. Consequences would have been dire if he were to be unable to finish the other man.

Lu Xuan was, after all, the greatest obstacles standing in the path of the Roman Curia’s quest to rule the world.

The only way that everyone would truly come to recognize the Roman Curia’s power and submit to them unconditionally was by killing Lu Xuan.

“There’s no doubt I’m gonna die today, huh?” Lu Xuan smirked and burst with such a fearsome aura that it managed to boil the air around him. It seemed to make it clear to all how his blood was now gushing and boiling all over him.

“Everything I threw at you before were just warmups. Here comes the real deal to finish you off!” As Lu Xuan shouted, everyone felt as if the air all around them froze right there and then.

Everyone sensed without a doubt that Lu Xuan’s aura was cranking in a frenzy. It was just like how he put it before; since he was merely warming up before, he had yet to demonstrate what he truly was capable of.

That was what terrified everyone. All of those unbelievably powerful moves he brought before were still not at his best. He was only now about to show how truly terrifying he could be.

Shoop!

Lu Xuan brought a blast of sword aura with his Dragonslayer, causing the air around him to erupt as the move was brought about. Having broken through the sound barrier, he was about to hit Pope Innocent in the chest.

The pope put up his holy sword to block the attack.

Clang!

A loud rumble was heard and the pope felt as if his arms became numb. The attack from Lu Xuan was just too powerful.

The next attack came in less than a second.

The attack landed on the pope’s holy sword yet again, and the force of that attack was even more terrifying than the one that came before.

Boom!

The spot where his thumb and his index finger were had been torn away, sending his holy sword flying right there and then.

Another attack came soon enough, and he was cleaved into two halves along his height from top to bottom before crashing to the ground.
