This Earth Is A Bit Fearsome

Chapter 585 - The Taichu Path in Despair

Chapter 585: The Taichu Path in Despair

The armor that Wang Yun wore shattered and the incoming blast of sword aura dealt heavy damage on his body. The armor he wore was a top-tier power item, which was something that common cultivators who were half a step into Divine Transformation Realm would not have been able to break.

Even so, he was never even given a chance to even begin resisting the force of that single blast.

He was severely injured on the spot.

“Sectmaster!”

“Sectmaster!”

“Sectmaster!”

At that moment, many fighters at the Divine Treasure Realm rushed to Wang Yun’s side. They gathered around and formed a formation to protect Wang Yun.

Many wore frustrated expressions on their faces.

They were very riled up.

Pfftt!

Wang Yun spat out blood right away. The attack that he suffered earlier had almost killed him on the spot.

He finally realized why all of his younger brothers-in-training were so utterly helpless against Lu Xuan.

Currently, Wang Yun was the only cultivator from Taichu Path who was half a step into the Divine Transformation Realm.

All the others were either missing in action or killed by Lu Xuan.

While Taichu Path did have access to massive wealth and manpower, they were still unable to keep up with such drainage of power.

He came to truly realize the extent of the powers of someone fully capable of obliterating a sect or clan on their own.

Despite being half a step into the Divine Transformation Realm himself, the difference in power between him and Lu Xuan was just too huge.

He was utterly unable to even begin to compare to him.

If he was the one out to attack a cultivation force like Taichu Path, it meant that he wanted to die.

Even if the grand ancestor was absent, doing so would’ve still been likened to digging one’s own grave.

However, things were different with Lu Xuan. He had proven that he was able to singlehandedly deal severe damage and throw them all into disarray.

Despite the battle only taking a brief moment, those of Taichu Path suffered an astounding amount of damage.

Wang Yun would never have believed someone to be capable of wielding such frightening powers if he had never seen it with his very own eyes.

Wang Yun continued coughing out blood as he wracked his brain to think of countless ways to deal with Lu Xuan. Beings like Lu Xuan would be better off not existing; their mere existence would’ve definitely posed a serious threat to any sect or clan.

Taichu Path would always be a raft caught in a storm until they got rid of Lu Xuan.

What terrified them even further was the fact that Lu Xuan was still currently half a step into the Divine Transformation Realm. According to all the information about Lu Xuan that they managed to scour on Earth, Lu Xuan was not even 50 years old yet. Despite this, his powers could easily equivalate to those who had been training for centuries. Perhaps he was probably even more powerful than those people.

There was no doubt that he would break into the Divine Transformation Realm in the future. Those of Taichu Path had no choice but to act against such a terrifying being.

They were compelled to kill him before he grew too powerful, and this was their last chance to do so. If Lu Xuan were to remain alive and break into the Divine Transformation Realm, that would’ve ended Taichu Path for good. The heritage that had been passed down for over a millennium would’ve been extinguished in their generation.

Blood was seen at the corner of Wang Yun’s mouth as he shouted, “Everyone, leave me be and think of ways to kill Lu Xuan instead.” He deemed himself utterly hopeless by then, but he was still unwilling to see the sect end while he was still the sectmaster.

“He’ll be gone for good once the grand ancestor returns.”

“That’s true. We’d only need to buy time and that’d be the end of him.”

“The sect had been fostering us this whole time. Now it’s time for us to repay our debt to the sect!”

A great many of them shouted as if they were trying to boost morale among themselves.

They had no choice but to do so. The enemy standing before them was just too powerful. They had never fought someone so terrifying before.

One could imagine just what kind of a monster someone capable of singlehandedly destroying a sacred ground like the Taichu Path was.

“What? Do you people seriously think you can kill me?” Lu Xuan snorted coldly as his white-clad silhouette appeared before them all.

Clad in a bluish-white robe, he looked like a demigod descending to the world as he appeared.

“Lu Xuan, Taichu Path shall fight you to the death!”

Wang Yun’s eyes became even more bloodshot when he saw his mortal enemy appearing before him.

“Once we kill you, then we’ll go forward with killing every single person in your family. It’ll be your fault that they all died!”

Lu Xuan’s expression grew increasingly cold upon hearing that. His family was the last line that anyone could cross with him; anyone who dared to threaten the existence of his family would’ve been deemed unfit to live.

There were more disciples from Taichu Path who did not truly know who Lu Xuan was. They didn’t know why such an unbelievably handsome and impeccably clean-looking man, who appeared like he was a god, would want to attack Taichu Path.

They did not know why he was out on a killing spree.

They had no idea that there was never a way to circumvent the conflict between them and Lu Xuan right from the beginning. To them, ruling the planet was necessary if they wanted to bring their sect to greater heights.

However, Lu Xuan wouldn’t stand for it.

If they were given a chance to rethink their choices, they would have still stuck to their very initial intentions. They would’ve thought of ways to kill Lu Xuan before he became a notable threat.

“You’re a devil!”

Countless disciples of the Taichu Path furiously shouted, “We’ll make sure you die a horrible death!”

They were all very agitated, wanting nothing more at that moment to tear Lu Xuan to pieces.

On the other hand, Lu Xuan simply watched everything unfold with a cold expression on his face, remaining totally unperturbed.

Boundless sword aura coalesced into a torrent of swords in that sword formation in Taichu Path’s site, hanging above in the sky before blasting at Lu Xuan.

Boom!

The entire sky shook, making it look as if the air was being cut to pieces.

The torrent reached Lu Xuan before long.

Lu Xuan lifted his hand, causing the boundless sword aura to explode against it right away. The sounds of metal clashing erupted. One could even see sparks flying everywhere.

However, that torrent of sword aura remained incapable of doing any damage to Lu Xuan’s Shield of Great Aether.

Upon seeing that, all the hope on the faces of those of Taichu Path disappeared without a trace.

They all seemed to have fallen into despair. After being cornered like this, they had no other choice but to fight to the death.

Lu Xuan made his move right before their eyes. Spiritual Aether on his body spread all over the place along with his aura, washing in all directions like tsunamis.

The Auric Flower above Lu Xuan’s head was conjured again.

Lu Xuan was running out of time. He needed to end things as quickly as possible.

He then took a step and disappeared from where he stood.

He was seen near Wang Yun by the time he reappeared before everyone’s eyes.

The expression on everyone’s faces stiffened, feeling as if they were locked onto by some terrifying aura. It felt as if they were facing off against an ancient beast of disaster instead of a human. That unnervingly frightening presence seemed to have shrouded the heavens.

A fighter at the Divine Treasure Realm shouted, “Get the formation up. Protect the Sectmaster!”

Everyone else around him quickly gathered around and put up a massive formation, which they had been training arduously day in and day out. As such, there was no need for more words at that moment.

Everyone knew what they had to do.

At that moment, Lu Xuan’s terrifying, tsunami-like aura burst as he threw a punch towards that massive formation.
