This Earth Is A Bit Fearsome

The unspeakably heavy burdens weighed down on her shoulders. The stress felt like the entirety of Mount Tai was crashing down on her, which was enough to crush the psyche of any person.

Only now she truly understood the amount of stress her brother had been carrying all these years.

She could not imagine how much effort he had put into hiding this stress to maintain his calm and relaxed appearance.

Her source of immense pressure came from the Tempest Alliance Meeting. Her planet was about to be divided and partitioned and she did not even have the right nor power to intervene.

The entire event had taught her one thing: the world was cruel.

In the eyes of anyone in the Tempest Ocean realm, only the masters of the Consolidation Realm were perceived as important, the others were simply like appetizers.

And therefore Earth would become the greatest feast yet, and no one would want to miss out on this opportunity.

Yunxuan Villa, which was protecting Earth, was as vulnerable as a child walking on the street with a large amount of gold, no, a group of ants would be a more accurate comparison.

Any Consolidation Realm user, even those as weak as Li Shou, would be able to conquer Earth with ease. This was the upper hand that those who had cultivated their skills in the realms have.

The power of Cultivation was similar to technological advancements, where those who failed to catch up would be defeated. This was an undeniable truth.

Lu Guoguo felt the urgency that Lu Xuan experienced before, and there was no time to waste.

In the last few years, Lu Xuan had taught Lu Guoguo about the Consolidation Realm. This knowledge gave her the confidence to master it. She even suspected it would take only a few years for her to enter the Consolidation Realm with ease.

This was not limited to her alone – the people at Yunxuan Villa all had the potential. However, what made her anxious was that they did not have much time to spare.

As Lu Xuan watched Lu Guoguo, he could help but feel a tinge of nostalgia. The little child that he had held in his arms and who called him “Gou Gou” had grown up in the blink of an eye.

Moreover, she had understood why Lu Xuan was in a constant state of anxiety.

However, even the best-laid plans could fall apart.

With Lu Xuan’s painstaking efforts, the Earth had enjoyed all these years of peace. If it had been an ordinary person, the Earth would have been colonised like it had in his past life.

“Don’t worry, your brother’s still here!”

Lu Xuan pat Lu Guoguo’s lightly on her head. He was rather relaxed.

“Let’s go agglomerate the Three Flower first,” he said. “Then let’s attend the meeting in Cloud City. If the Earth is going to be divided, you need a representative from Earth.”

Lu Xuan added with a sneer, “I want to see which mouth dares to claim that they want to swallow Earth whole.”

He had the power to turn the tables on the Tempest Alliance and he had already made up his mind to ruin the Tempest Alliance Meeting.

After all, there was no point in keeping the Tempest Alliance. He saw no reason to wait and he was definitely not going to wait for Christmas.

“You’ll help me?” Lu Guoguo asked with wide eyes.

This was unheard of for Lu Guoguo, Three Flower agglomerating was an individual process. Even a master of the Consolidation Realm would not be able to help her in this.

The only aspect she did require assistance in was the extraction of the essences, but that was nothing much as well, for she knew the procedure from the documents that Lu Xuan had left behind.

“Sure, I will help you!”

Lu Xuan nodded: “Let’s find somewhere quiet and I’ll help you with the ​​agglomeration of the Three Flower.”

For a user of the Consolidation Realm, assisting others with the agglomeration of the Three Flower would post certain difficulties. But for someone of a Celestial Lord level, it was a piece of cake.

Moreover, Lu Guoguo was at her final stage. She was one more agglomeration away from reaching the Three Flower at One’s Prominence.

Securing a quiet chamber, Lu Guoguo began agglomerating her third Spirit Flower.

To be precise, as long as the Spirit Flower had sprouted, it was a sign she had agglomerated the Three Flower. But agglomerating the flowers was not the same as ensuring that they were of the same size. They require different sets of skills and abilities.

As Lu Guoguo was about to move her mana, a huge surge of power entered her body and surged into her brain.

Before she could react, Lu Xuan called out.

“Steady your qi and channel it all to the Spirit Flower! I will provide you with the energy!”

Lu Xuan was guiding the Draconic Qi from the Dragon Orbl into Lu Guoguo’s body.

Every agglomeration of the Three Flower necessitated a large amount of energy. With enough support from the Draconic Qi and the existing energy within Lu Guoguo’s body, as well as her unique physical constitution, the agglomeration would be a success.

After a few hours, the third Spirit Flower blossomed. This was a monumental moment for Lu Guoguo. She was ecstatic, almost as if someone had been funneling spiritual energy into her.

“That’s amazing,” she commented excitedly, “You’re so strong! Even the Three Flower is nothing for you, you must be a Consolidation Realm user now!” In the previous process, she could already feel how Lu Xuan had guided her and helped her with much of her growth.

She was worried about the breakthrough, but now it seemed like it would not be too difficult.

As the Spirit Flower can only blossom within one’s mind, if there were an accident in the process, the worst-case scenario would be the explosion of the head, and the best was turning into an idiot from the damage.

However, with Lu Xuan’s primordial spirit abilities protecting her mind, Lu Guoguo was able to tend to the Spirit Flower with no worries. The energy was strong yet gentle. This was what led to her assumption.

“Not bad,” Lu Xuan nodded. “You’re so clever, you figured it out so quickly!”

“Wow, that’s amazing!” Lu Guoguo exclaimed excitedly, She sounded exactly like the little girl she was before, without a trace of the calm temperament she had nurtured from the years of training.

“Since my brother is already a user of the Consolidation Realm, they would not dare to just take whatever they want from us!” she proclaimed with a triumphant air.

Lu Xuan smirked and joined in, happiness and pride across his face. “Then, let’s go meet them,” he laughed.

Cloud City was one of the four holy lands of the Tempest Continent. It was a city with a rich history and one that birthed strong Consolidation Realm users in every generation.

Before the emergence of Lin Ziyi, the Tempest Continent had a long history of holy lands used for cultivation that was passed down through generations, and they were occupied by the XuanHuo Sect, Cloud City and the Steel Knight Association.

The strength of the Holy Nun Gate was borrowed and built from the power of Lin Ziyi, but Cloud City was an accumulation of generations worth of power and experience. Therefore, it was no worse than the XuanHuo Sect and the Steel Knights Association in terms of strength.

On this particular day, Cloud City was bustling. The Tempest Alliance meeting had called for the arrival of many powerful figures: aside from the XuanHuo Sect Leader who was busy on an official trip, the other four masters of the Consolidation Realm users had arrived at the city.

Undoubtedly, this day was going to be an honorable spectacle to behold!
