The crack in the sky slowly closed!
That pair of terrifying eyes was finally gone!
Many of the experts felt so relieved!
That kind of overwhelming pressure had scared them!
Whether it was of Lu Xuan’s sudden appearance or the terrifying eyes behind that crack, both of them had looked mortifying.
Either one was capable of killing them all!
Even the top experts who dominated everywhere had felt as if this was just a fight between immortal beings!
At the same time, this battle had demonstrated for everyone how terrifying Lu Xuan truly was!
In the past, they thought that they had seen all of Lu Xuan’s strength. However, they were completely wrong; what they had seen was not him at his best.
It was only the tip of the iceberg!
Lu Xuan’s terrifying strength was incisively and vividly reflected this time around!
That kind of terrifying pressure made him seem like a God. One casual glance from him would’ve made everyone freeze in place!
Lu Xuan alone was already so scary, not to mention the figure behind the crack!
Lu Xuan, who was already powerful on his own, had no way to break through the defense using the sword light that was created from the Dragonslayer. He had to borrow the power of the bronze machete to cut off its finger, which was two to three times bigger than an average human.
The strong expert involved behind it was very likely to be the leader of the Myriad Dragon Valley that Lu Xuan had previously mentioned—the old dragon.
If this were the case, then many people could not help but begin to worry. If that old dragon was the expert, then they were afraid that the entire human race would suffer great misfortune.
Could a nuclear bomb even do anything to such a terrifying existence?
Faced with this reality, even countries that had previously been left stunned began to have doubts on the matter.
Before this, they had regarded Lu Xuan as the greatest enemy to the human race. However, a giant claw suddenly appeared that was obviously not from an ordinary person.
Although they could not hear the figure through the satellite, many cultivators at the scene had various relationships with them.
Many officials had found out several things by listening to the noises through the cultivators.
Myriad Demon Valley!
Another behemoth had surfaced, whose strength was hidden so deep that even the high officials of various countries had never heard of them before.
Although all these high officials of different countries ran modern governments, many of them had been established for more than 1,000 years. They had only changed dynasties, so many books in the field of cultivation were still available.
However, none of the countries knew what this so-called Myriad Demon Valley was.
Several countries had long been familiar with mysterious forces such as the Vampiric Empire, the Covenant of Darkness, and the Roman Curia. They had also dealt with each other for many years.
The countries even did several things like sending spies to these forces.
Myriad Demon Valley was the only one that nobody had heard of. In Lu Xuan’s previous life, they would not have otherwise been caught unprepared by its sudden rise.
Having done preparations beforehand, however, it was unknown whether the governments of various countries would still watch the rise of the Myriad Demon Valley without intervening.
With the existence of an unknown superpower, it had posed a threat to the survival of human beings to some extent. The attitudes of various countries toward Lu Xuan had gone in completely different directions.
Some countries even regarded Lu Xuan as a pillar against the demons, but all of this happened later!
After the battle that had shocked many cultivators present, Lu Xuan restrained his aura while acting as if nothing happened.
The blade attack that was used just now was not something too astonishing; it was an attack made by Lu Xuan while the blade and the wielder had become one.
However, it had consumed around 70 to 80 percent of Spiritual Aether in his entire body.
Whether it was to maintain the state of the blade and wielder becoming one or to cause the battle to reach its peak, it had consumed a great deal of Spiritual Aether.
In this battle, Lu Xuan had completely shattered the old dragon’s plans to prevent him from saving Ao Fan.
Lu Xuan had consumed a great deal of Spiritual Aether. After all, it was different from Spiritual Qi. Even if his natural Taoism aptitude was extraordinary, it was still impossible for him to replenish his Spiritual Aether the same way he replenished Spiritual Qi. After taking a few breaths, his Spiritual Aether had been 70 to 80 percent restored.
It took a full 15 minutes for Lu Xuan to completely recover his consumed Spiritual Aether. However, this speed had shocked many cultivators who were watching it happened.
Of course, they were able to see that Lu Xuan was recovering. Even Lu Shanshan stood nearby to protect her brother with her life, although he didn’t really need it.
Everyone was able to see that Lu Xuan had consumed all of his Spiritual Qi during the battle just now.
They did not know that Lu Xuan was already in the Condensing Aether Realm, having turned his Spiritual Qi into Spiritual Aether.
Even so, they were shocked to see that Lu Xuan had recovered a considerable amount of Spritiaul Aether in only 15 minutes.
Lu Xuan’s skills far surpassed theirs, being probably at least 10 times stronger than them. It was almost impossible for them to recover such a large amount consumed in such a short time.
If it had been them in this kind of battle that would deplete their Spiritual Qi, it would take them at least a day to recover by themselves without relying on alkahestry pills.
However, none of them dared to take advantage of Lu Xuan’s recovery period to try and take him by surprise. They were all aware of their limits, knowing that their own strength was nowhere near Lu Xuan’s strength.
However, Lu Xuan’s current strength was likely greater than what he had shown during this battle. Although he had only been recovering for a short while, he had still fully recovered. It was just that Lu Xuan did not fully show it, leaving an air of mystery around himself.
He knew that there were countless pairs of eyes currently staring at him. The speed of his recovery would also become the object of study by various forces; it could be considered as something they could use against him.
However, Lu Xuan had also benefitted greatly from this battle. Based on the blade attack and the finger claw that attacked him, Lu Xuan had determined that the old dragon was very strong. However, it was not strong enough to the point where Lu Xuan could not fight against it.
It was a creature in the Divine Treasure Realm. When it had shown its mighty power later, it was probably after it had been recovering for a long time. In that case, its cultivation had increased by a level.
This also made Lu Xuan feel a little relieved that the old dragon’s strength was still within the scope that he could handle.
Even if this old dragon were to descend soon, Lu Xuan was not very afraid because he still had ways to deal with it. However, he would need to pay a great price.
Unless it was necessary, Lu Xuan did not want to use his hidden card so easily, as the final result could only lead to a loss for both sides.
At that moment, Lu Xuan’s eyes looked at that finger claw. There were already several sharks swimming nearby that were all attracted by the blood.
Lu Xuan was about to put that finger claw away when something suddenly changed.
