This Earth Is A Bit Fearsome

None of the Three Flowers at One’s Prominence was better than the others. Each one had its weaknesses and strengths.

When going up against fighters who were capable of conjuring the Three Flowers at One’s Prominence, they would usually choose to conjure different flowers depending on the circumstances.

It seemed that Xuanyangzi had found his own way: to first master and strengthen his Spirit Flower.

He would first increase his combat prowess into the level of the Three Flowers at One’s Prominence.

Whether he had made the leap or not made a massive difference.

Truth be told, Xuangyangzi was now ten times stronger than he used to be.

That was why he dared to stand before that young man who called himself a god.

He also finally made it into that realm, opening up a world that he had never seen before. Thanks to Lu Xuan, he finally broke out of the shackles that the world kept him in for centuries.

He didn’t know how to feel right now. He wondered why Lu Xuan hadn’t appeared several hundred years ago.

If he was capable of conjuring the three flowers hundreds of years ago, he would definitely make it into Consolidation Realm in the future.

Not only had he made it to the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm back then, but his aura was also abundant enough to have let him easily conjure the Auric Flower.

He wouldn’t have been as helpless as he was now.

Lu Xuan had led them forward the whole time but discovered that he was already too old to leap over that chasm before him.

It truly was a shame.

Afterward, the look in Xuanyangzi’s eyes grew even more intense. While there was no longer any way for him to move beyond that, he was still determined to be rid of that menace.

He knew that the young man before him probably had something to do with that mysterious organization standing behind them.

Otherwise, the great altar of the Divine Blood Church wouldn’t have been taken over quickly right after it was busted not long ago, even before he was able to ask Xiang Tianfang anything about that mysterious organization.

That organization had been a menace to the world for thousands of years; it was now nothing more than a tumor on the world.

Despite having lurked in the shadows, the organization had leashed several fighters. They had been maiming and killing so many members of the sacred ones that they had rendered the sacred ones almost extinct throughout the millennia.

With murderous intent boiling in his eyes, the young man who called himself a god said, “Well, it looks like you’ve been able to conjure the Spirit Flower. That explains where you got the audacity to be so insolent before me.”

Even so, he didn’t seem that wary of the situation.

Even though Xuanyangzi had demonstrated his combat prowess, that young man deemed the old man to be little more than a nuisance.

“Three Flowers at One’s Prominence? What is that?”

Both sides consisted of fighters who were at the Divine Transformation Realm. They all wore doubtful looks in their eyes, feeling as if they couldn’t understand a single thing from what was being said.

They wanted further explanations.

Having known about the Divine Transformation Realm for a while now, they wondered what the Three Flowers at One’s Prominence were.

Currently, Lu Xuan had only passed down the methods of conjuring the three flowers to the highest-ranked elders among the Immemorial Path. Not even the common elders were deemed qualified to know the methods.

As such, none of them knew what the Three Flowers at One’s Prominence truly were.

They only knew vaguely that it was probably a level above the Divine Transformation realm.

The entire place was thrown in an uproar right away, regardless of whether or not they were at the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm. Anyone who yearned to move forward in cultivation was forced to wake up from their delusions.

It was only then that they learned that there was still a way forward that was strongly related to their future training.

This remained true even if they never reached the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm at any point in their lives.

Even after all of that, they couldn’t help but become excited.

Instead, Xuanyangzi laughed and said, “Insolent, eh? Hahahahaha, you’re the one who first dared to tell me that throughout the ages.”

Xuanyangzi laughed instead. Not only had he been the top expert in the world for so long now, but he was also above the rest of the immemorial Path. That meant that nobody was brave enough to criticize him or call him insolent.

That young man chuckled coldly and commented, “You think being older than me means something? You’re nothing but a mere runt when compared to someone like me!”

Xuanyangzi pointed at that young man and asked, “Are you connected to that mysterious organization? How about with the Beast King and Xiang Tianfang?”

The young man’s look on his face changed slightly. Xuanyangzi saw that and immediately replied, “So, it’s true that you’re connected to that organization then. For the sake of the people of this world, I can’t let you live. You people have massacred countless of the sacred ones throughout the ages, earning the wrath of both the people and the gods. You’re no longer welcome in any part of this world.”

What Xuanyangzi said caused quite a commotion among the army of the Immemorial Path.

In the Holy Sun Continent, slaughtering the sacred ones was deemed almost an act of sacrilege unto itself.

Not only had the sacred ancestor been repelling the forces of the foreign Blood Devil, but generations of sacred ones also gave their heart and soul to work for the sake of the Holy Sun Continent.

The sacred ones were believed to be the royalties of the Holy Sun Continent without titles, yet they possessed utmost renown.

It wouldn’t have mattered that much if the members of the sacred bloodline never awakened their powers. However, the scarcity of awakened sacred ones was because they were constantly being hunted down.

That thought alone sent shivers down the spines of many people. They believed that such an organization willing to hunt down the sacred ones existed out there that would hunt down sacred ones. Many people worshipped this organization, believing themselves to be mere bugs in comparison.

“Even if I die today, I must get rid of a menace like you for the world!” Xuanyangzi became increasingly sure that the young man was definitely more than just a commoner; he might actually be one of the masterminds.

That was because that young man was so powerful that neither the Xiang Tianfang nor that Beast King were a match for him.

That explained why both Xiang Tianfang and the Beast King, who were deemed among the strongest in the world, would yield to one such organization.

That was simply because the mastermind of the organization was just too powerful.

The existence of someone who was out to manipulate events in the world from behind the scenes was deemed a massive threat against the world.

That young man chuckled coldly and added, “Then, does that mean you can do it? I mean, you’re still pretty old.”

Xuanyangzi then shouted in response, “Thunder!”

As he shouted, a massive blast of lightning came down from above. The bolt was tens of meters in thickness, and the blast alone made it seem like the world could fall apart at any given moment.

The bolt of lightning happened unnervingly quick, but the young man simply waved and destroyed the terrifying lightning bolt in the air. His hand itself was the greatest of blades; one swing was more than enough to even cut down lightning.

The young man said, “Too slow.”

He then flashed, charging right at Xuanyangzi and throwing a punch at him right away.

Boom!

A massive rumbling sound rang out. Xuanyangzi was just as exceptionally experienced in combat. When the incoming punch destroyed the layer of protective barriers that he had around him, he finally had a chance to retaliate and throw a punch in return.

Boom!

When the punches from both sides clashed, towering waves washed all over the place with the two combatants at the very center. The waves spread out like a sphere, shrouding the vicinity within several kilometers’ radius from the center.

The ball of light spread out, making it look as if their surroundings were about to collapse altogether.

Many fighters nearest to ground zero were caught by the blast right away and immediately killed. The remaining ones then backed away in a frenzy, frightened by what they just witnessed.

At that moment, a figure was seen emerging from that ball of light. Everyone looked closely and saw that it was none other than Xuanyangzi.

Xuanyangzi looked rather disheveled at the moment, with his clothes in tatters and blood coming out of his mouth.
