This Earth Is A Bit Fearsome

Chapter 685: Skill Close To The Martial Way, As A Lower Realm Is Superior To A Higher Realm

Surprised by this turn of events, one Great Ancestor said, “How is this possible? I can easily that the cultivation realm of Zhou Daoping is higher than his opponent!”

Although they had no way to judge Zhou Daoping’s real strength as easily as they could with Lu Xuan, the Great Ancestors were still able to get a basic idea of it. Zhou Daoping’s cultivation realm was very profound, even more so than Lu Xuan.

After the primordial spirits from both sides collided with one another, Zhou Daoping ended up beaten without being given a chance to fight back.

“It must be the quality of the primordial spirit. Lu Xuan’s primordial spirit must be of a horrifyingly high level of quality. Zhou Daoping’s primordial spirit was directly crushed in close combat. Since this seemed more like a piece of tofu had collided with steel, it’s obvious who won this battle. Just because one’s primordial spirit is bigger doesn’t always mean that it’s stronger!”

Some people seemed to have realized the mystery behind the collision. The level of Lu Xuan’s primordial spirit was even higher than his cultivation level, which was as strong as that of Zhou Daoping.

There was also the fact that Lu Xuan’s primordial spirit had followed him from his previous life. Although it was not very large, the degree of its purity was not much different from how it was in his previous life.

It could’ve been said that if a person was at a higher cultivation realm than Lu Xuan was, that advantage in realms might’ve made it possible to crush Lu Xuan. If an ordinary person tried using their primordial spirit to attack Lu Xuan, then it would’ve been no different from trying to use blocks of tofu to smash steel. That person was essentially asking for death!

After Zhou Daoping was seriously injured, Lu Xuan immediately launched an attack again. Although his current cultivation realm put him at a complete disadvantage, that wasn’t all that mattered in this battle. Zhou Daoping would’ve lacked the combat experience and vision necessary to stand a chance against Lu Xuan even if there were 10,000 copies of Zhao Daoping.

Whoosh!

Lu Xuan appeared directly in front of Zhou Daoping, moving so fast that the latter couldn’t keep up.

He could only rely on his instincts if he wanted to win this battle!

Zhou Daoping created boundaries in front of him in quick succession, but Lu Xuan’s dragon claw instantly grabbed at these boundaries before crushing them into pieces.

Afterward, the claw directly hit the Shield of Great Aether.

Zhou Daoping’s Shield of Great Aether was in the shape of a human. It looked extremely fierce, seeming like a piece of armor.

Nobody expected that, after Lu Xuan’s punch collided with Zhou Daoping’s Shield of Great Aether, the originally solid shield collapsed in the air.

Boom!

This punch hit Zhou Daoping squarely in the chest. It didn’t matter if he specialized in cultivating the physical body; without the protection of the Shield of Great Aether, he would still have trouble resisting Lu Xuan’s shocking punch.

“Pft!”

Zhou Daoping continued trying to retreat. He even believed that Lu Xuan’s punch would’ve broken apart his bones and internal organs.

“How is this possible?!”

Zhou Daoping could not believe it. This was because others may not have known this, but Zhao Daoping knew full well that Lu Xuan had essentially shattered his Shield of Great Aether after hitting its weak point with just one strike.

Zhou Daoping’s cultivated technique was very powerful, but that didn’t mean that it didn’t have its loopholes. The condensed Shield of Great Aether also had its weaknesses, but only Zhou Daoping knew about them.

He had never mentioned it to anyone before; doing so was considered a sign of vulnerability for cultivators. This was the weakness of his cultivation, as he had yet to perfectly cultivate the technique.

Nobody usually knew about the weaknesses, not even the young master. However, Lu Xuan broke the Shield of Great Ancestor with just one punch.

Zhou Daoping was sure that Lu Xuan didn’t just get lucky in breaking his Shield of Great Aether. Rather, he believed that Lu Xuan truly knew of its weak points.

Zhou Daoping had already let go of his pride, now treating Lu Xuan as a terrifying opponent. He did not feel that Lu Xuan didn’t rely on luck to find and hit the shield’s weak point.

Lu Xuan’s twinkling golden eyes seemed capable of seeing anything that anyone tried to keep a secret. When Lu Xuan was looking at him, Zhou Daoping had made Lu Xuan believe that the latter could see through all of the former’s secrets.

Nothing about him was kept a secret from Lu Xuan.

Without waiting for him to think further about it, Lu Xuan delivered his next attack: another golden dragon’s claw that grabbed at Zhou Daoping’s head.

Zhou Daoping was furious. Lu Xuan had completely looked down on him.

He immediately grabbed the long spike. Since Lu Xuan could see through all of his defenses, he could no longer rely on his Shield of Great Aether. Naturally, he was forced to go on the offensive instead of the defensive.

The long spike in his hand instantly moved towards the golden dragon’s claw.

Boom!

With a loud explosive sound, the endless frenzy from the aftermath spread in all directions. It then turned into a terrifying sonic boom that almost shattered people’s eardrums.

Zhou Daoping noticed that Lu Xuan had directly torn apart his attack.

Lu Xuan had broken through Zhou Daoping’s martial arts techniques. Lu Xuan had brought light to all of Zhou Daoping’s weaknesses, even those that did not originally exist.

At that moment, Zhou Daoping wore a frightened expression on his face. He had never felt something like this ever since he followed the young master.

When facing Lu Xuan, Zhou Daoping felt as if he was being suffocated for the first time. It was obvious he steadily overshadowed Lu Xuan in terms of strength and skill. In reality, however, this did not seem to be the case at all.

Zhou Daoping had been involved with countless battles over the years. Naturally, he had plenty of combat experience that he could rely on!

Against Lu Xuan, however, he was as weak and powerless as a mere child.

Lu Xuan was like an experienced Old Monster, as he had insight into everything. He managed to detect the weak points of Zhou Daoping’s skills, including even the loopholes when he was breathing, as they were directly targeted by him.

This made Zhou Daoping feel as if he was suffocating. He obviously had an advantage, but there was no way to completely use it to his benefit.

His attacks were filled with tricks, and all the different kinds of attacks from him should have been intractable. Against Lu Xuan, however, it seemed as if he was being clumsy.

Lu Xuan moved like a wild horse, as he seemed very tyrannical!

For the first time, Lu Xuan had shown both his amazing skills in martial arts and his rough fighting technique by heading straight for the opponent.

His skill was close to the Martial Way!

The attacks Lu Xuan made were worthy of being considered on the same level as the Martial Way!

It was hard to rely on the strength that was similar to the third tier of the Divine Transformation Realm to suppress Zhou Daoping, whose strength was at the fourth tier of the Divine Transformation Realm. However, Lu Xuan succeeded without giving Zhou Daoping a chance to even fight back.

Zhou Daoping continued to spit out blood, almost close to going crazy. This was the first time that he had realized there were so many loopholes in his martial arts. With just one glance, Lu Xuan was able to find the loopholes in what he thought were perfect attacks.

Lu Xuan had even delivered critical blows!

This made Zhou Daoping, who was obviously superior in terms of skill, be beaten to the point of constantly retreating!

To everyone else, Lu Xuan had essentially suppressed Zhou Daoping since the fight even began. He was beaten all the way up into the air.
