My Dreams Connect to Ancient Times-Chapter 108 - 93: Heaven-Flipping Seal

"Wu... Wu Xiaoxu?" Wang Zhiyao’s bewildered whisper was followed by a silence that was awkward and strange.

A cold sweat broke out on Lu Xuan’s forehead. ’Oh, just great. Opening the gate was one thing, but the mask can shatter too?’

’That wasn’t mentioned in the mask’s information stream... Huh?’

He suddenly remembered that the information stream was incomplete. Even though it was only missing a tiny bit, it was still...

GULP!

Lu Xuan swallowed, comforting himself. ’Thank goodness I switched to Xiaoxu’s face ahead of time...’

He gave a light cough and put on a guileless expression.

"This was an accident. You all believe me, right?"

A dead silence.

Everyone stared blankly at him. From Wang Zhiyao and Chu Han to all the Celestial Humans—even the Demon Race Great Celestial Human with half his body shattered—all of them were staring intently at the young man.

"You... you’re really Wu Xiaoxu?" Wang Zhiyao asked, utterly bewildered. She was questioning her reality, and a chill ran down her spine.

’That towering, terrifying Ancient Creature from before... was Wu Xiaoxu?’

’The one who killed a Celestial Human with a single slap... was Wu Xiaoxu???’

She suddenly understood why she and the others had managed to pass the trial...

What occurred to Wang Zhiyao naturally occurred to everyone else as well.

After another long moment of silence, a ferocious killing intent billowed out. With immense might, the crippled Demon Race Celestial Human projected his Spiritual Will, his entire being transforming into a terrifying Great Sun!

A Great Celestial Human was one who had climbed the Ninth Level Divine Ladder to its peak, to Perfection. All that remained was to push open the Celestial Gate to become an Earth Immortal.

Those who climb the Divine Ladder are Celestial Humans; those who ascend the Celestial Gate are Earth Immortals; and those who face the Celestial Palace are True Immortals!

At this moment, it wasn’t just the Demon Race Great Celestial Human. A terrifying killing intent also surged from the other six surviving Celestial Humans of the Traitor Faction.

Their terrifying auras intertwined, crashing down fiercely toward ’Wu Xiaoxu’!

Lu Xuan’s eyelids twitched violently. Although it was only the pressure of seven Celestial Humans, one was a Great Celestial Human, and two others were above the Sixth Level Divine Ladder!

An intense chill drilled into every pore of his body. His flesh showed signs of freezing over, and even the flow of his blood began to slow.

But Lu Xuan didn’t panic. He just gave a sheepish smile.

"Well, the outcome is good, isn’t it? At least half the competition for the opportunities is gone now, right...?"

Before he could finish, one of the Celestial Humans lost his patience and struck out domineeringly.

"Get over here! And explain yourself!"

His palm descended, surging with a vast power as he lunged to grab Lu Xuan!

"Wait!"

The speaker was the Qingxin Temple Master. He tried to intervene, but the Demon Race Great Celestial Human merely glanced his way, and the terrifying killing intent froze him in place!

Some of the prodigies who sided with the Demon Race were also bristling with indignation. Wu Shangpin in particular was enraged, waiting eagerly to see ’Wu Xiaoxu’ suffer!

Just as that Celestial Human’s palm was about to fall, suddenly—

"Ahem..."

Dressed in his Golden Long Robe, Lu Xuan coughed lightly and said in an eerie voice:

"Have you forgotten? Though I am no true Ancient Creature, I can still slay a Celestial Human."

The moment he finished speaking, a vicious glint flashed in his eyes. He knew he couldn’t hesitate now; he had to establish his dominance!

At once,

Lu Xuan unleashed nearly every technique at his disposal. Just as he had in the [Origin], he raised one hand high above his head and held the other flat before his abdomen. The world around him suddenly grew dark!

"Slay."

He whispered the word, his mind connecting with the Three-Five Evil-Slaying Sword and the thin Master’s Token within his Spiritual World. Drawing forth a sliver of their power, he launched a domineering counterattack!

Even without the enhancement from the Bronze Mask, this strike still possessed immense might!

His palm, imbued with a sliver of Immortal Slaying Sword Qi, shot upward to meet the blow, carrying the momentum of Heaven and Earth Inversion and followed by a phantom image of a dark cosmos projected from the Three-Five Evil-Slaying Sword!

The attacking Celestial Human’s expression changed drastically, but it was too late to retract his hand. He collided with Lu Xuan!

BOOM!!

A terrifyingly massive shockwave erupted, sending Wang Zhiyao, Zhang Jifeng, and the others nearby flying. They were all coughing up blood, clearly wounded by the aftershock.

At the center of the tempestuous collision, Lu Xuan’s expression flickered for a moment before returning to normal as he swallowed back the blood rising in his throat.

As for the Celestial Human who had attacked, he was in a sorry state. He had only reached the Third Level Divine Ladder, making him stronger than Lu Xuan, but not by much. With the intervention of even a sliver of power from the Three-Five Evil-Slaying Sword, his entire arm exploded into pieces!

It all happened so fast that most people couldn’t react. A cold light flashed in Lu Xuan’s eyes as he pressed his advantage, once again mobilizing the power of the Three-Five Evil-Slaying Sword from his Spiritual World.

He also visualized his Three Masters’ Master’s Token, focusing on each character. Perceiving it through his [Form Acupoint], he saw the vision of a Daoist whose sword dance could extinguish the world!

Influenced by this profound concept, the might contained in his fist grew even more potent!

THUMP!!

The Celestial Human was struck, sending him reeling. His chest caved in, and blood poured from his mouth and nose. Before he could even register what had happened, the young man’s third strike arrived.

This time, he aimed for the head.

His palm, glowing with a soft radiance, carried the profound concept of Heaven and Earth Inversion and the extinction of all things as it drifted down with deceptive lightness.

The head shattered like a ripe watermelon smashed on the ground. The headless corpse of the Celestial Human tumbled down, kicking up a plume of dust.

Silence.

Everyone stared, their faces filled with stunned disbelief.

’They had all assumed that ’Wu Xiaoxu’s’ power came from that mask, but as it turned out...’

But a moment later, the Demon Race Celestial Human narrowed his eyes. Dragging his ruined body forward, he prepared to strike.

"Not bad, little one. But it seems... this is all you’ve got?"

He clearly hadn’t been bluffed. The might of a Great Celestial Human crushed down, and though a chill shot through Lu Xuan’s body, he still did not retreat!
