Golden Dragon Claws!
As soon as Lu Xuan delivered his punch, a rumbling noise arose accompanied by the sound of what seemed like the roar of a dragon. The attack swept towards Xiaoyao Hou alongside a golden frenzy that filled the entire sky.
He did as he said he would without any hesitation, leaving Xiaoyao Hou unprepared.
"Damn!"
Xiaoyao Hou cursed quietly. He was still influenced by Lu Xuan's three flowers that were unbelievably massive.
The existence of those three flowers was already very stressful for him.
Not to mention that even when Lu Xuan was not moving and just standing there, his body was already giving off some kind of pressure like a sacred mountain.
It was as if a layer of golden light was shrouding over him, giving off a mysterious and oppressive aura.
He knew that this was because his primordial spirit was being suppressed by that of Lu Xuan. That was why he could still feel some kind of suppression going on without knowing what was going on.
It had been a long time since someone oppressed him this much.
Aside from those at the Consolidation Realm, nobody's Spirit Flower could've been stronger than his. His flower was already the strongest.
After many years, he once again felt such oppression from his primordial spirit.
Before he could think about it, Lu Xuan had already started.
"Xiaoyao movement arts!"
Xiaoyao Hou performed his specialty almost immediately.
Xiaoyao Hou was well-known in the world for his Xiaoyao movement arts. He claimed that the technique was beyond the Three Realms and above the Five Elements.
Since it was beyond the Three Realms and above the Five Elements, that would mean that it does not exist in the traditional sense.
Since it does not exist, naturally, nobody could catch him.
"Xiaoyao Hou, you invented your own Xiaoyao movement arts and claimed that it is beyond the Three Realms, above the Five Elements, and is non-existent. Today, I'm going to tackle your technique and let you know that your 'Xiaoyao movement arts' is no more than a joke!"
Lu Xuan's chilling voice came from the golden mist, and the golden dragon claw morphed of an entire golden dragon swept towards Xiaoyao Hou.
Xiaoyao Hou's figure instantly split into hundreds of images and covered the entire sky. Even with their Dharma Eyes opened, the crowd was still unable to discern Xiaoyao Hou's whereabouts.
Nobody knew which of the hundreds of figures was the real Xiaoyao Hou.
Just when everyone thought that Lu Xuan's attack was about to fail, they saw Lu Xuan's golden dragon claw grasping the void and hitting one of the figures on the spot.
Bam!
Amidst the sky full of images, one figure abruptly slammed into the ground, created a massive crater. The other hundreds of figures all over the sky vanished without a trace.
"How is this possible? He can actually see through the Xiaoyao movement arts?"
In an instant, even Li Shou was left shocked.
Evidently, he had heard of the prestigious Xiaoyao movement arts. This was a technique that even aces at the Consolidation Realm highly praised.
Hailed as a prime among movement arts in the same Realm, it was almost impossible for those in the same realm to tackle the Xiaoyao movement arts.
Only when one was above in Cultivation Base would it be possible for them to decipher the Xiaoyao movement arts utilizing the superiority of the higher Cultivation Base.
However, Lu Xuan's Cultivation Base was clearly the same as Xiaoyao Hou's. How did he manage to see through Xiaoyao Hou's Xiaoyao movement arts?
From his perspective, Lu Xuan was gleaming. Without any signs of confusion, he caught Xiaoyao Hou almost immediately.
"He seems to know what he's doing!"
Lin Ziyi smiled. Her Cultivation Base was even higher than that of Li Shou. How could she have not known something that even Li Shou could clearly see?
She thought that things were finally getting a little more interesting.
Lu Xuan's rash agreement in the matter and haughty statement of wanting to take down Xiaoyao Hou within three moves were just empty words.
"Pfft!"
In the giant crater, Xiaoyao Hou coughed out a mouthful of blood. In defiance of the common courtesy of combat, Lu Xuan acted he said. Xiaoyao Hou was able to unleash the Xiaoyao movement arts at the critical moment and scatter his images all over the sky.
However, he was not able to confuse Lu Xuan and took a direct hit from him.
Of course, this was not the only feature of the Xiaoyao movement arts. It was not as simple as splitting into hundreds of shadow clones.
It was just that none of this meant anything to Lu Xuan.
He clearly saw how Lu Xuan's eyes were emitting a pale golden color. His expression was stern, like a living god who had seen through everything.
Before him, everything was unfounded.
With his movement arts being deciphered, he felt as if he had nowhere to escape the pressure bearing down on him. It seemed as if he was unable to even breathe as if the world had crumbled.
He looked into Lu Xuan's eyes as if he were looking at a monster.
Right now, he couldn't see Lu Xuan as anything but a monster disguised as a human!
Even if he had begun cultivating in his mother's womb, it would still probably be difficult for him to attain Lu Xuan's level.
This had nothing to do with how long someone spent in cultivation nor the degree of their talent. It was simply impossible for humans to achieve.
What disgusted him even further was that after he was blasted down with a punch, Lu Xuan had no intention of pursuing him. This was a display of his confidence in victory, making it that he did not even bother to chase him down. This was a great and genuine insult.
Even those at the Consolidation Realm regarded him as a threat. He had never encountered anyone who would dare shove him beneath their notice.
"This is absurd!"
Xiaoyao Hou suppressed the wounds on his body and charged out of the pit with a roar.
"Lu Xuan, how dare you humiliate me like this! I'll kill you right here, right now!"
His body shimmered in a burst of blue as he automatically tapped into the Azure Real Body state, which greatly increased Xiaoyao Hou's power level.
Xiaoyao Hou had outstanding talents. In terms of aptitude, he was already top-notch. Unfortunately, however, his constitution was just ordinary.
Therefore, in accordance with a certain unique constitution recorded in a certain relic he had once obtained, which was the Azure Real Body, he developed a kind of magic that imitated this specific constitution.
Different from Lu Xuan's born Taoism aptitude, Xiaoyao Hou's Azure Real Body was a type of magic.
Lin Ziyi chuckled, "I admit that the Azure Real Body is quite impressive. It's pretty impressive of Xiaoyao Hou to be able to come up with such a way to use the constitution!"
After spending the past few years with Lu Shanshan and Lu Guoguo, Lin Ziyi had also learned from them several new phrases that were commonly used on Earth.
"At the end of the day, it's just a fancy trick. Before raw power, it cannot even withstand a single blow!"
From the perspective of an ace at the Consolidation Realm, magic of this level could only be regarded as a trick without solid worth.
Unless one day, Xiaoyao Hou could step into the Consolidation Realm as well. By then, everything would be different again. Still, was it possible for him to enter the Consolidation Realm?
Lin Ziyi turned to look at Lu Xuan again. It's impossible!
