This was the first time that these self-proclaimed gods from the Tempest Ocean Realm ever felt so threatened.
Lu Xuan was strong, perhaps even so strong that it made them feel suffocated and unable to rest well.
At least Lu Xuan’s methods looked to be the same as them!
Cultivation masters have never had an issue of mass production. To train a master like Lu Xuan, finding a place where luck overflowed like a geyser could help save time even if that place was in a recovering world. However, it wouldn’t offset the countless resources to be consumed.
Although Lu Xuan was strong, only he would take his place as the master supporting heaven and earth in the next hundred or even thousand years.
These technological weapons were different; they could absolutely be mass-produced.
Every day they managed to delay equals a piece of strength they gained; this piece of strength was easily visible!
If these weapons were mass-produced, the Earth Federation’s right to speak would rapidly increase. They would no longer be able to treat the Earth Federation as before, taking what they wanted or treating them like livestock.
Unless Consolidation Realm masters were ever able to enter Earth, there would possibly be another earth-shattering change.
However, the only people who could remain relaxed at the time would be Consolidation Realm masters. The rest of them were all deterrence targets.
Although they could survive one technological nuclear bomb, could they dodge a hundred of them?
Although it would be quite costly to kill a Three Flower Realm master with a hundred nuclear bombs, it could still be supported with gritted teeth considering the Earth Federation’s current strength.
The offensive and defensive situations were different!
Furthermore, the Earth Federation’s sudden possession of a strength that could threaten them was probably directly related to Lu Xuan.
After all, Lu Xuan was the one who invented and promoted the rune technology that combined cultivation and technology.
The Earth Federation had been able to suppress the entire planet in the past by relying on precisely this ability.
Even Divine Transformation Realm masters could not stand against them. They could only comply with those who possessed more power.
At this point, many people saw Lu Xuan as a walking disaster; not only was he a powerful master, but also he was the biggest obstacle standing in the Tempest Ocean Realm’s quest for world domination.
Cutting people’s way to wealth was like killing their parents. Now, Lu Xuan was destroying their futures!
Those who could come to the Earth Federation, all did so to make a breakthrough in their own cultivation.
Now, Lu Xuan was standing in their way. As expected, almost everyone has begun to revile Lu Xuan.
A new consensus has been reached—if Lu Xuan wasn’t dealt with soon, he’ll become a major issue!
Even so, these people dared not to act rashly. Lu Xuan’s behavior was not difficult to see. According to the information collected from various aspects, he was definitely not a soft-hearted person.
They just needed to wait one more month!
During this month, they couldn’t afford to give Lu Xuan an excuse to start weeding out his enemies.
They were wary, and Lu Xuan was also equally wary of the incomparably powerful Consolidation Realm masters behind them.
The vigilance they had between each other formed a new balance, but it was quickly broken!
Just after threatening the masters of the Tempest Ocean Realm, the Earth Federation issued a global warrant for the capture of Gongsun Wuji with all its strength.
For a time, the world that was filled with dark undercurrents began to see again.
Gongsun Wuji’s existence was no longer a secret!
He single-handedly planned the entire conspiracy against Lu Xuan; hoping to get Lu Xuan to leave the Yunxuan Villa, he directly incited the Lightning-Winged Wolf King to slaughter tens of millions of people to force Lu Xuan to leave his mountain.
This was normal for the cultivators of the Tempest Ocean Realm, but many people on Earth wanted nothing more than to tear him to pieces.
They had been patient up until now. With the publication of his global warrant, people all over the world began searching for Gongsun Wuji.
After Lu Xuan had placed the global warrant, he had discovered Gongsun Wuji’s whereabouts in less than 24 hours.
Modern technology had flourished; with cameras and networks everywhere, it wasn’t difficult to search for someone. Gongsun Wuji was especially easier to find since he didn’t hide at all.
However, the masters of the Special Task Force who surrounded him were no match at all for Gongsun Wuji, who forcibly broke the encirclement and fled.
Unless one was certain that they could block attacks from such a master and counterattack with various means, it was pointless to try.
The most terrifying thing was that Gongsun Wuji was also in the Three Flower Realm, yet ordinary people were no match for him at all.
If a real fight were to ensue, an entire base city would’ve been destroyed.
If anyone failed to capture him, he would be able to prepare for whatever happened in the future!
Some people from the Tempest Ocean Realm said with disdain, “This Lu Xuan is also stupid. If he wanted to take down Gongsun Wuji so badly, how could he have alerted him without moving personally? Gongsun Wuji only needs to stay out of sight for a while and return to the Tempest Ocean Realm. What can Lu Xuan do, in that case?”
Everyone was left stunned as certain news spread like wildfire.
The earth had been locked down with a barrier, and the ancient pathway of the stars had been blocked.
In other words, no one was allowed to leave or enter Earth.
When the news had spread, it fueled an uproar. This was because one cultivator of the Tempest Ocean Realm had wanted to return but was blocked by the barrier.
Not even his strength as a Three Flower Realm master was enough to break the barrier.
A thousand waves had been stirred up by this one stone.
Almost immediately, experts who were good at barriers and formations went to observe for themselves. It was as they expected; beyond the earth’s atmosphere laid a huge barrier and formation, locking down the entire earth.
A master who specialized in viewing qi saw that there was a huge array of qi surrounding the entire world, with multiple large formation eyes supporting the barrier.
Soon, everyone had discovered that there were heavy soldiers around these eyes. A monster king tried to forcefully break through the barrier but ended up being bombarded; it nearly died after losing half of its body in the attack.
Everyone realized that these elite troops around the formation eyes possessed the strength to injure these Three Flower Realm masters. If anyone insisted on breaking through, they would likely fail and even die in the process.
Once again, it was obviously directly related to the enhanced rune technology that had just appeared. These technological weapons engraved with runes held the ability to break defenses.
Even a Three Flower Realm powerhouse would’ve been severely injured by a shelling!
Giant cannons guarded these formation eyes!
“It’s Lu Xuan again!”
Everyone knew that this must’ve been Lu Xuan’s doing again. While they were still expectantly waiting for the month to be over, major players from all over were able to gather on Earth. This allowed them to retake the upper hand.
Lu Xuan has already played his hand; he had pulled the carpet from below everyone else and severed their hope!
