This Earth Is A Bit Fearsome

There hadn’t been anyone capable of withstanding a single hit from Feng Qingming, and Xuanyangzi had only been able to retreat all the way to the central gates while defending with the Immemorial Mirror.

If it hadn’t been for the sacred ancestor’s spirit emerging, Xuanyangzi probably wouldn’t have been able to do anything about the attacks.

That was precisely why everyone was so intimidated as soon as they were reminded of Feng Qingming’s power.

Everyone who was currently around Xuanyangzi was considered among the best that could be found in the ranks of the Immemorial Path or even the whole world. None of them were cowards. They were just unable to accept the fact that Feng Qingming would have been able to squash them like bugs.

There was no dignity for them before him at all.

“We have to get there at once. I know what all of you are afraid of, but now is the best chance to kill him once and for all. He’s probably still recovering as we speak. If we were to linger any longer, it would only be a matter of time before he comes for us all!”

Xuanyangzi added seriously, “We have no other choice here. It’s either him or us. He’s now at his weakest and if we were to let him run loose, the Immemorial Path would be no more.

All of them knew that Xuanyangzi was telling the truth and it was just like he put it. They couldn’t afford to run from the upcoming battle and their only way was forward. They couldn’t possibly expect a lunatic like Feng Qingming to spare the Immemorial Path after all.

“Let’s go!”

“We’ll make sure that he’s dead on this very day, even if it means getting ourselves killed.”

“For the Holy Sun Continent!”

“For the world!”

All of them burned with high spirits as they made their way towards the source of that raging power.

Many other people followed in silence when they got there and lurked about, but there was just no way anyone could hide from the force of that storm before them.

They all saw how Feng Qingming had all three flowers conjured above his head instead of just one.

Many gasped right away. Knowledge of the Three Flowers at One’s Prominence had become widespread as time passed since Feng Qingming escaped before.

They all knew that every single flower conjured would bring about a drastic spike in one’s combat prowess.

Meanwhile, Lu Xuan was able to tell that everything around him was changing. He sensed himself being in space and was able to see planets orbiting not far away.

“Illusions, huh?” Lu Xuan knew what was happening right away. He knew that he had just been hit with illusions and immediately made his move, dispelling all that illusions right there and then.

Feng Qingming came right before him at blitzing speeds, burning with blood-red evil qi. The terrifying force swept all over the place.

A massive bloodied hand came for Lu Xuan’s head right away.

Lu Xuan snorted and extended his arm, easily blocking that terrifying attack.

Boom!

The clash between the two of them felt like two missiles collided midair, exploding with shockwaves washing all over the place.

“You broke through my illusions?”

Feng Qingming was rather baffled that he couldn’t kill Lu Xuan in one hit. While the illusions he used were nothing special, the raging mental powers he gained from conjuring the Spirit Flower meant that no one would have been able to evade it.

The Auric Flower, the Essence Flower, and the Spirit Flower corresponded to physical arts, spells, and illusions respectively.

Any illusion conjured that was backed by the Spirit Flower would have been able to immediately fool anyone.

The only exception was Xuanyangzi, who had been able to conjure the Spirit Flower as well. He had never seen anyone who was able to resist his illusions.

The hit he dealt should have been enough to kill.

Due to the illusion being one backed by the Spirit Flower, Lu Xuan should have needed to take it on full force, even if the illusion itself not being anything remarkable.

Feng Qingming was able to instantly throw hundreds to even a thousand illusions, which meant that Lu Xuan needed to split his focus all the time to resist them. Lu Xuan, whom Feng Qingming deemed to not be his match in the first place, should have had his attention even further divided after that.

That was the first time he had seen anyone capable of instantly breaking through his illusions.

He was rather puzzled by what happened. Lu Xuan hadn’t even conjured the Spirit Flower, yet was able to face the illusions head-on.

Lu Xuan smirked at Feng Qingming. There was no way the latter would’ve known that he was armed with the Soaring Phoenix Immortality Art, which fortified his spirit like a shield protecting him in all directions. It was utterly impossible to use spirit attacks against him.

To make matters worse, that illusion attack was nothing remarkable, to begin with. Lu Xuan was only hit because he had been careless.

As golden light burst from Lu Xuan’s eyes, mystical patterns were seen in his pupils.

“From this point forth, both spirit attacks and illusions will work against me.”

He activated his Delusion-breaker Eyes right away, which was able to dispel all types of illusions.

Feng Qingming looked into Lu Xuan’s eyes as he muttered, “What the hell…?”

Lu chuckled as he asked, “These are the Delusion-breaker Eyes. You’ve robbed the blood of the sacred ones and you’re telling me that you don’t know about them?”

“Delusion-breaker Eyes… Delusion-breaker Eyes…” He kept his eyes glued onto Lu Xuan. His eyes had golden patterns as well, which were a lot cruder than that of Lu Xuan, making it obvious that his eyes were far inferior when compared to that of Lu Xuan.

It was just as Lu Xuan speculated; there was no way Feng Qingming would have been able to resist the urge of robbing the blood of the sacred ones and make it his.

He indeed has the blood of the sacred ones in his veins, as well.

Despite having worked at it for 10,000 years, he made nowhere near as much progress towards unlocking those powers as Lu Xuan did.

Thanks to the Delusion-breaker Eyes and the fortification from the Soaring Phoenix Immortality Sutra, he had rendered Feng Qingming’s Spirit Flower completely useless.

All of Feng Qingming’s spirit attacks were completely useless against Lu Xuan.

Because Feng Qingming still had the other two flowers, he was still able to put up a fight. If he only had the Spirit Flower, he would have been as defenseless as a baby against Lu Xuan.

Feng Qingming coldly said, “It’s just as I thought. There truly are ways of upgrading the Delusion-breaker Eyes. I’m gonna gouge your eyes out and look into its secrets!”

Despite the fact that illusions have been rendered useless, he was far from being intimidated. The way he saw it, Lu Xuan had already become a dead body that he could take spare parts out of any time he wanted.

“That remains to be seen.”

A tinge of disgust was seen in Feng Qingming’s eyes as he said, “You disgusting, filthy creature!”
