Chapter 851: Fight An Army Alone
“Dang! That human is too arrogant!”
“Kill him!”
Everyone was shouting in anger.
However, Lu Xuan remained floating in the sky with his usual expressionless face as his white robe moved with the wind. It was as if he was an angel descending to Earth.
The man with a sword on his back said, “How dare you! Are you trying to call off his negotiation? Is that it?!”
There was no doubt that Lu Xuan’s strength had shocked a lot of the cultivators in the Ancient City. They weren’t as calm as they pretended to be.
They believed that Lu Xuan should’ve been on their side. Even though he was a human from a low-level world, his cultivation level had put him on par with them. That gave him the right to get a share of Earth’s resources after they took over the planet.
They thought of negotiating with Lu Xuan, but to their surprise, Lu Xuan didn’t even want to negotiate with them, nor did he view them as a threat.
With how things turned out, a battle between Lu Xuan and the Tempest Ocean Realm cultivators was unavoidable.
Lu Xuan said, “Negotiate? With you? Who are you to negotiate with me? Do you think Earth is a place you can do whatever you want? This world doesn’t belong to any of you! You have no right to interfere with our lives!”
The next second, five people charged towards Lu Xuan together, signaling the start of a terrifying battle.
Thousands of attacks were swiftly launched at Lu Xuan all at once. He was barraged with all sorts of magic, martial arts, and spells. It looked as if various attacks were pouring from the sky like rain.
These cultivators had no choice but to fight. Lu Xuan was too arrogant to listen to their requests.
“Go to hell!”
Even though these cultivators were always on each other throats and had never been on the same side before, they were still able to exhibit perfect teamwork when the situation arose to deal the most amount of damage to their enemy because of their comprehension towards cultivation as a whole.
For a second, it felt as if the air had erupted and the world was starting to crumble. This seemed to prove how terrifying it would’ve been if these cultivators were to work together.
The whole Ancient City trembled from the shockwave. Everyone quickly erected their own barrier to protect themselves from being swept away.
Lu Xuan remained floating in the air until the attacks were just seconds away from reaching him.
He threw out a simple punch, and shots of energy were sent out from it.
This punch was not as simple as it seemed. It was one that had combined every aspect of a perfect punch in it.
Just as he was able to combine countless cores of swordsmanships into one, he was able to do the same to his punches.
The next scene made everyone else’s jaw drop. Lu Xuan’s “simple” punch instantly dispelled all the attacks that were sent to him by the five cultivators.
The attacks that were able to turn a city into ruin were gone with a single punch.
Everyone could feel how powerful the punch was.
“What is that punch? How can it be this powerful?”
Everyone doubted what they’d just saw as Lu Xuan’s punch seemed normal to them. There wasn’t even a hint of any form of martial arts in the punch, yet such a normal punch was able to counter the powerful attacks.
The sight sent chills down everyone’s spine.
It was evident that Lu Xuan’s punch did not demonstrate the essentials of martial arts, but the punch had reached the state of returning to its simplicity. Not only was this the scariest part of the attack, but it was also the highest possible level that anyone could hope to reach.
There were three stages to achieve complete mastery of punching. The first stage was from complexity to simplicity. From that simplicity emerged a new form of complexity before returning to its simplicity again.
The highest realm of punching that one could’ve ever hoped to reach was finding the perfect tranquility within and without. It was as if seeing something as it was and wasn’t, only to return to its original state.
Lu Xuan had just shown that he’d reached that stage.
Even the five cultivators who attacked Lu Xuan first were left completely dumbfounded by his extraordinary performance.
They could tell how scary this human from Earth was; he was much scarier than they’d expected.
“Kill him! We can’t allow someone like him to exist in a low-level world!” The man with a sword on his back wanted to remind everyone that they could never let Lu Xuan continue to grow.
Three of the human cultivators immediately gathered all three flowers and immediately reached the Three Flower Realm.
Despite having trained through another method instead of being in the Flower Realm, the other two monster kings still brought out their best attacks.
The energy from these five powerful foes spread throughout the city. Everyone could feel the immense pressure coming with it. Those who could up shield themselves had to use power items to do so.
Everyone had their eyes glued onto Lu Xuan, unable to believe that he could remain calm and steady amidst such intense pressure. Meanwhile, they were trying their best not to collapse even though they were only on the sidelines.
Lu Xuan only shook a little and released a much more intense pressure from his core. In an instant, the Auric Flower, the Essence Flower, and the Spirit Flower all formed above his head.
This was Lu Xuan’s first time releasing all of his power ever since he reached the Three Flower Realm.
The energy he sent out made him seem invincible; it was as if he was the king of everyone else.
The five enemies couldn’t even handle the pressure that Lu Xuan was exerting. All five of them were forced to bend over as their arms and legs trembled.
They couldn’t believe that despite being in the same Three Flower Realm, Lu Xuan’s flowers were at least a few times bigger than theirs.
It was as if their flowers never had the chance to grow.
However, they clearly knew that their flowers were already fully grown. The problem wasn’t with their flowers, but Lu Xuan’s “unnatural” flowers.
No matter how shocked they were, none of them could withstand the pressure.
“Impossible!” The cultivators could not believe their eyes. The pressure was too much for them to handle, to the point where they began to feel pain.
They began to spit out blood from their mouths while cracks could be heard from their bones. The pressure was so tense that it crushed their insides and broke their bones.
That was the power of the Spirit Flower. It gave Lu Xuan the ability to shape something out of thin air
The enemies finally felt fear for the first time upon meeting Lu Xuan.
At first, they thought they could force Lu Xuan to comply by overpowering him with numbers. They never thought highly of him.
They were sure that no matter how strong Lu Xuan was, there was no way he could defeat all of them.
However, Lu Xuan had just proven to them that he had the power to kill every single one in the city.
A normal Three Flower Realm cultivator would’ve been completely outclassed by Lu Xuan.
It showed that the Three Flower Realm cultivators that Lu Xuan had killed before weren’t weak. It was just that Lu Xuan was too powerful.
