The speed of the newcomer was so fast that it exceeded everyone's expectations. For a moment, everyone was shocked and couldn't help but raise their heads to look.
"Lu Xuan!"
"Brother Lu?"
A few exclamations were heard. Zhao Ying and Chen Xiaohan were pleasantly surprised, Nangong Lie was a little surprised, and Sikong Tiancai's face was filled with anger.
"So you're still alive. You made me worry for so long." Chen Xiaohan was so excited that her face turned red. She had almost lost all hope when Sikong Tiancai said that Lu Xuan was dead, but she did not expect Sikong Tiancai to be lying.
"Of course I'm not dead." Lu Xuan laughed, "You guys are still in danger. How can I bear to die?"
Nangong Lie took a deep look at Lu Xuan. He was extremely shocked and slowly said, "Level-two Grand Void Stage."
Everyone was shocked by Nangong Lie's reminder. Back in the forest, they had witnessed Lu Xuan making a breakthrough to the Great Void Stage. It had only been slightly more than two hours, yet Lu Xuan had already reached the second level of the Great Void Stage. If they had not witnessed it with their own eyes, they would have never believed it.
"How is this possible? How can this kid recover so quickly? He was clearly heavily injured." Sikong Tiancai gritted his teeth. He could not believe what he had just seen. Not only did Lu Xuan recover, but he had also made a breakthrough. This almost defied logic. Who had ever seen someone make a breakthrough from the first-level Grand Void Stage to the second-level Grand Void Stage in less than four hours?
Lu Xuan took a deep breath. This was the World of Thunder, and the dense thunder elemental energy made him feel extremely comfortable. Even though he had already obtained the Golden Thunder Bamboo, and even though the ice spirit had taken the initiative to deactivate the formation, the thunder elemental energy that had been accumulated for 10,000 years would not dissipate in a short period of time.
His gaze swept across the crowd and eventually landed on Sikong Bei, who was in front of Nangong Lie. He could sense that Sikong Bei's aura was the most powerful among the crowd.
"Looks like you're the trump card of the Sikong Family?" Lu Xuan said as he landed beside Nangong Lie.
A sinister smile appeared on Sikong Bei's aged face as he said, "Young people really can't be underestimated. Such talent simply makes this old man go crazy with jealousy. If this old man had your talent, I'm afraid I wouldn't be at my current level of strength."
"Brother Lu, be careful of this old man. He's Sikong Bei, an expert of the Sikong Clan from two hundred years ago. His strength is unfathomable now, and he's definitely at the peak of Level Nine Grand Void Realm." Nangong Lie reminded in a deep voice. Although Lu Xuan's arrival had given him a glimmer of hope, Sikong Bei's strength was still like a huge mountain pressing down on his heart. As far as he knew, it had been a long time since anyone in the Sky Sword Continent had broken through to the Grand Void Realm. The strongest person was at the peak of Level Ten Grand Void Realm. Other than these few experts, experts at the peak of Level Nine Grand Void Realm were almost invincible.
Lu Xuan nodded. Compared to Sikong Bei, who was at Level Nine Grand Void Realm, his strength at Level Two Grand Void Realm was a little lacking. If Sikong Bei hadn't wanted to recuperate and didn't want to fight, Lu Xuan probably wouldn't have been able to escape at all.
"Ku Er, I heard that your Soul Clan has a technique that allows you to take other people's bodies for your own use. I wonder if it's possible to exchange my body for this kid's?" Sikong Bei said as he licked his lips. He wasn't joking. He really coveted Lu Xuan's body.
Ku Er glanced at Sikong Bei and said, "Only our Soul Clan can use this technique. However, if the experts of the Soul Clan in the Heaven Region help you, it's not impossible."
"Then it's settled. His soul belongs to you, and his body belongs to me. When you return to the Heaven Region, remember to ask the experts of your Soul Clan to help me change my body," Sikong Bei said with a smile.
Ku Er sneered in his heart, but he agreed to it. Sikong Bei's thinking was too simple. To help him change his body, an expert of at least the level of a Soul Sage would be needed. Moreover, Sikong Bei's own Soul Power would also need to reach a certain level. It was already extremely difficult for Ku Er to come into contact with an existence of the level of a Soul Sage, let alone getting their help.
"Keep an eye on Nangong Lie first. Don't let him take the opportunity to escape. I'll take down this kid with the surname Lu first." Sikong Bei ordered. He clearly regarded himself as the ruler of this place. His strength at the pinnacle of the ninth level of the Great Void Realm gave him enough capital.
Ku Er was naturally happy that Sikong Bei took the initiative to take on the task of dealing with Lu Xuan. Although Lu Xuan seemed to be much weaker than Nangong Lie, Ku Er had an indescribable fear towards Lu Xuan, considering that Lu Xuan had single-handedly stopped so many of them. He came from the Heaven Region and had seen too many human geniuses. Many geniuses couldn't be judged by common sense, and Lu Xuan before him was very likely such a person.
"Soul Dispersal!" Ku Er let out a low roar and a burst of soul power shot out, instantly tearing at Nangong Lie. He preemptively entangled Nangong Lie, preventing him from joining forces with Lu Xuan. Meanwhile, Dong Ruyi and the others followed closely behind and launched their attacks.
Being besieged by three people once again, Nangong Lie couldn't escape for a while, let alone help Lu Xuan deal with Sikong Bei. He could only pray in his heart that Lu Xuan could once again display the strength he had displayed in the lava field. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to resist Sikong Bei at all.
"Kid, if you submit to my Sikong clan, I promise to let you live for a while longer. How about it? I don't want your body to be damaged," Sikong Bei said with a cruel smile.
Lu Xuan shook his head lightly, "You've lived for two to three hundred years. You should have lived long enough. What's the point of lingering on? Let me send you on your way today."
As he spoke, Lu Xuan raised his left hand and shouted in a low voice, "Lightning, come!"
As soon as he said that, it was as if his words were the law. The sky, which was already somewhat gloomy, was suddenly filled with thunderclouds. Rumbling sounds rang out incessantly as countless balls of lightning rapidly gathered around Lu Xuan.
Sensing the changes in the sky, Nangong Lie couldn't help but reveal a look of joy. This feeling was so familiar. Wasn't this the same situation Lu Xuan had experienced in the lava field? Could it be that Lu Xuan had regained the power he had before?
"Law of Lightning? You sure have a lot of tricks up your sleeves. " Sikong Bei smiled as he looked at Lu Xuan. He was already over 320 years old, so how could he feel any fear when facing Lu Xuan, who wasn't even a fraction of his age? At this moment, he was watching Lu Xuan's display of strength with great interest.
Since Sikong Bei was being arrogant, Lu Xuan naturally wouldn't show any mercy. With a cold laugh, he flipped his palm and countless balls of lightning suddenly shot towards Sikong Bei.
"Calming Lightning!"
Calming Lightning was a very sinister ability. Before it exploded, you would never imagine how much power was contained within such a small ball of lightning. Moreover, Lu Xuan was currently using this ability in the Realm of Lightning.
Facing the incoming balls of lightning, Sikong Bei casually waved his hand and a burst of Yuan Energy shot out, as if it could instantly annihilate these countless balls of lightning.
But just as the Yuan Energy and the balls of lightning collided, the sky changed color!
Boom!
A loud explosion opened the curtains of the battle. A Calming Lightning Explosion triggered countless Calming Lightning Explosions.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Thunder boomed, lightning flashed, and Sikong Bei's surroundings instantly turned into a sea of lightning. Violent lightning energy attacked wantonly, bombarding the surroundings, almost tearing the space apart. The powerful shockwaves from the explosions almost overturned Nangong Lie, who was the closest to him.
Ku Er, who was fighting with Nangong Lie, turned pale. He hurriedly retracted his Soul Energy. In that instant, a trace of his Soul Energy was annihilated by Lu Xuan's lightning energy. Lightning energy had always been the nemesis of Soul Energy.
No one expected that the battle between Lu Xuan and Sikong Bei would be so intense. Everyone who was fighting could not help but stop and look over in unison. They simply couldn't believe that such a violent power was unleashed by a second level Great Void Stage martial artist.
At this moment, Lu Xuan was not going to let Sikong Bei off easily. He waved his hands rapidly, and bolts of extremely condensed Calming Thunder appeared one after another. Without the slightest pause, he shot them toward Sikong Bei. He wanted to blast the arrogant Sikong Bei to death right there and then.
Whether it was the people from the Sikong family, the Illusory God Sect, or the Jiuhua Alliance, at this moment, all of their mouths were wide open and their eyes were wide open. Lu Xuan was like a son of lightning, controlling the endless lightning energy between heaven and earth to suppress Sikong Bei. Under the cover of the lightning, Sikong Bei's figure could no longer be seen. All they could see was the boundless lightning wreaking havoc around Sikong Bei.
Sikong Bei, who was at the ninth level of the Great Void Stage, was actually being suppressed by Lu Xuan, who was at the second level of the Great Void Stage? They even suspected that Sikong Bei had already been killed by Lu Xuan's endless bombardment.
"A single tree can form a forest!" A roar resounded from within the sea of lightning. A wave of emerald green light forcibly withstood the purple-green lightning. Then, the green light suddenly expanded, and an incomparably powerful aura suddenly burst forth. The endless sea of lightning was instantly pushed away by the green light.
The lightning dissipated, and the crowd finally saw Sikong Bei's figure again. However, at this moment, Sikong Bei was no longer as relaxed and carefree as before. His robes had become strips of cloth, hanging loosely on his body. His hair was disheveled, completely covering his face. He looked extremely miserable. In just a short period of time, someone as powerful as Sikong Bei was reduced to such a state.
Sikong Bei forcefully pulled out a handful of hair and flung it to the back of his head. His gaze was as if he was about to devour someone! He did not expect Lu Xuan's attack to be so ferocious. It completely caught him off guard. The endless lightning almost suffocated him. If it were not for his three hundred years of accumulation and his extremely condensed Origin Energy, he might not have been able to break through Lu Xuan's attack. He would have been blasted to death in this sea of lightning.
It was not that he had never suffered losses before. To be able to survive until now and possess such strength, Sikong Bei had suffered countless losses. However, this was the first time he suffered a loss in front of a junior whose cultivation level was far lower than his. Moreover, it was a loss that almost consigned him to eternal damnation.
"Brat, I want you dead!" Sikong Bei roared. At this moment, he no longer planned to take Lu Xuan's body. He wanted to grind Lu Xuan's bones into ashes to vent the hatred in his heart.
