If the cultivator did not possess good control over their body, their brain would explode like a firework due to the extreme amount of energy directed to their head.
In Lu Xuan’s past life, he barely managed to gather the Spirit Flower. In this life, however, he had prepared more than enough. There was nothing for him to worry about except for the time it would take him to complete it.
Fortunately for him, time was still on his side. After absorbing the energy of the Blood Ginseng alkashestry pull into his body, he began forming the Spirit Flower.
Lu Xuan did not return from the Sky Ocean Secret Realm until three months later.
During the three months where Lu Xuan was gone, many events had happened in the outside world.
The biggest event to have happened was a base suddenly appearing on Earth’s moon.
Those who had the ability and technology to observe the moon were notified immediately about the base’s appearance.
The news sent a shiver down everyone’s spine as there was only one being that could come from outer space to gather on the moon.
It proved that the cultivators from the Tempest Ocean Realm had arrived using the ancient pathway of the star.
The Earth Federation had learned from Lu Xuan about the existence of a pathway that connected the Tempest Ocean Realm and Earth.
They also learned from the captives of Tempest Ocean Realm about the current situation of the ancient pathway of the star.
From what they could gather, it was a collapsing pathway that pierced through the sky.
The pathway was filled with tons of powerful energy and force fields. In theory, only those who’d reached the Divine Transformation Realm could use the ancient pathway of the star.
Even so, only seven out of ten of those powerful Divine Transformation Realm cultivators could survive the terrifying pathway. Earth was lucky that the ancient pathway of the star was unstable. Otherwise, it would’ve been overrun by cultivators from the Tempest Ocean Realm long ago.
To use the ancient pathway of the star without any risk, one would’ve had to reach the Three Flower Realm.
In the past, most of the cultivators who came from the Tempest Ocean Realm would set their feet on Earth right away. Now that they were actually building a base on the moon, it meant that those who’d arrived later could not enter Earth because of the barrier that Lu Xuan had erected.
These cultivators had no choice but to temporarily reside on the moon.
For the next two months, observations showed that cultivators had moved in and out of the base.
As time passed, more cultivators gathered outside of Earth’s barrier, to the point where the citizens of Earth could feel the energy the intruders were releasing.
The citizens of Earth felt as if they were continuously being watched by someone else.
Everyone was restless as they could feel the danger closing in on them.
Of course, some powerful cultivators tried to break the barrier protecting Earth but failed.
At first, only a single One Flower Realm cultivator was on the moon. It didn’t take long for a few Two Flower Realm cultivators to join them eventually.
As time passed, a few Three Flower Realm cultivators had gathered on the moon as well.
From what the reading showed, these Three Flower Realm cultivators were much stronger than Gin King.
When news of that was spread, the citizens of Earth kept glancing up into the sky from time to time as if they were watching the preparation of their doom.
The once quiet Tempest Ocean Realm turned active again.
“Lu Xuan has to die! We can’t let him live!”
“Do you think he can hold his ground against those Three Flower Realms?”
“Of course he can’t. That’s his price for alarming the Three Flower Realms.”
Everyone had their eyes on the dangerous beings that were temporarily residing on their moon.
After the first Three Flower Realm cultivator had failed to destroy Earth’s barrier, another monster gave it a go: a huge eagle glowing in dark gold.
It was a terrifying sight to behold when the huge eagle circulated Earth.
It didn’t take long for a few organizations to estimate that the eagle traveled at Mach 30.
In truth, the eagle could not reach such speed, but the zero friction in outer space made it possible.
The cultivators on Earth were already bracing themselves for a full-fledged war. Some were even dispatched to Yunxuan Villa to ask for Lu Xuan’s help.
Unfortunately for them, the guards of Yunxuan Villa told them that Lu Xuan was not seeing any visitors at the moment.
Lu Xuan was Earth’s last hope. The monster that was circling Earth was a Monster King in the Three Flower Realm. Even if all of Earth’s cultivators worked together, they would’ve been nothing more than food for the eagle monster.
From what Earth Federation had learned from the captives from Tempest Ocean Realm, the eagle monster was also a Dark Eagle King, the father of the one that Lu Xuan had killed and eaten.
After learning of its son’s demise by Lu Xuan’s hands, the father forfeited his chance to break into the Consolidation Realm and traveled to Earth through the ancient pathway of the stars.
“I’ll have all of you lowlives and Lu Xuan pay for what you did to my son!” The Dark Eagle King made that announcement with the help of the monster kings that still remained on Earth.
Every intellectual being on Earth was shocked by the monster king’s announcement. In the past, no matter how scary or ruthless the invader was, they never had the thought of killing everyone because they were afraid of Lin Ziyi.
However, the Dark Eagle King had a different reason for his action.
The bloodline of the Dark Eagle King was one of the strongest out there. Due to their overwhelming power, it was hard for them to conceive a child.
Everyone could understand why the Dark Eagle King was enraged, and not even a single soul suspected the monster’s resolve.
Soon, a group of people managed to contact the base on the moon.
“Lu Xuan’s the one who offended the Tempest Ocean Realm. You can’t blame the entire world for that. We don’t want to be your enemy.”
This group of people was terrified by the Dark Eagle King’s threat as they knew that the monster king had the ability to wipe out Earth’s entire population. Even if the monster couldn’t kill everyone by himself, there were still others that would gladly help.
Under such intense pressure, these people decided to surrender.
A reply soon came back from the base on the moon. One of the strongest on the moon assured that they could stop Dark Eagle King from wiping out every living thing on Earth, but they had a few conditions.
Just as everyone was pondering what to do next, the monster made a move.
On a quiet night where the moon shone brightly, the Dark Eagle King charged into Earth’s atmosphere.
With the monster’s speed and air friction, its body erupted into flames as it continued to dive towards the ground.
“The barrier is broken!” Those who witnessed the attack were left completely dumbfounded. The first thing they noticed was a hole in the barrier that Lu Xuan had erected.
It only took the Dark Eagle King a short amount of time to penetrate Earth’s defense and into its territory.
“Someone has broken the barrier!” Not a single soul on Earth could believe that the barrier was actually broken.
