208: We are so awesome!

Lu Yuchen also noticed them, his gaze merely sweeping indifferently over Su Qingxue, lingering for less than half a breath before moving away.

Su Qingxue's heart, which had still held a glimmer of hope, plummeted into an icy abyss.

The Old Ancestor of the Su Family beside her, who had lost an arm, shuddered all over and instinctively buried his head even lower, fearing that if this Senior became displeased, he would take his remaining arm as well.

Lu Yuchen didn't take these two to heart at all.

He cleared his throat.

"Everyone."

"I know that right now, your minds are undoubtedly filled with questions."

"However, this Sect Master's presence today is not for the purpose of showing off anything."

"Rather, it is to tell everyone a secret… a secret that is enough to overturn the understanding of the entire Tianwu World, and which concerns every person present, and even the survival of the entire world."

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire audience erupted in an uproar.

"Sect Leader Lu!"

Below the stage, the Sect Master of a more impatient Sect finally couldn't hold back, bravely stood up, and bowed to Lu Yuchen.

"You just mentioned that in the near future, there will be an invasion of our Tianwu World by an alien realm."

"This matter… is of great importance. May I ask why Sect Leader Lu is so certain?"

These words also voiced the thoughts of everyone present.

Indeed!

Alien realm invasion?

This sounded like some kind of fantastical story, completely unreal.

You, Lu Yuchen, are strong; we acknowledge that.

But you can't just expect us to believe such an unbelievable thing with mere words, can you?

"Want to know?"

Lu Yuchen's lips curved into a smile upon hearing this.

He didn't waste words.

He simply raised his right hand.

And lightly pointed at the True One Holy Master.

"Watch closely."

"Buzz—!"

The True One Holy Master only felt a blur before his eyes.

The next moment, he unexpectedly floated slowly upwards, uncontrollably.

He was suspended in mid-air, flailing his limbs, as comical as could be.

"This… what kind of martial art is this?"

Everyone looked as if they had seen a ghost.

They knew how to fly in the air, and they could do it themselves.

But from such a distance, with a single finger, to make a top-tier expert float up like a puppet on strings?

They had truly never seen anything like it!

"Lu… Senior Lu! Have mercy! Have mercy!"

The True One Holy Master was so frightened his soul almost flew out, his old face turned a pig-liver color, desperately urging the Martial Saint's power within his body, yet he found that in front of that mysterious power, he was as fragile as a three-year-old child, without even the slightest room for resistance!

"And this."

Lu Yuchen seemed to think it wasn't enough, and he flicked his finger again at the empty wine cup.

"Crack—!"

With a soft sound.

The few remaining drops of wine in the cup instantly froze into ice before everyone's eyes.

Immediately after, he blew a breath towards a withered potted plant nearby.

"Whoosh—"

The next moment, a terrifying scene that refreshed everyone's worldview occurred.

The potted plant, which had already withered and died, rapidly sprouted branches, budded, and bloomed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

All of this happened in just a few breaths.

Bringing the dead back to life!

Withered wood meeting spring!

This… is this still martial arts?! Everyone couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.

"Now, do you believe me?"

Lu Yuchen withdrew his Divine Ability, and the True One Holy Master fell back to the ground with a "thud," gasping for breath.

The stage below was already silent.

"Junior… Junior, greets the Immortal!"

Someone, no one knew who, was the first to react, falling to their knees with a "thud" and bowing three solid kowtows to Lu Yuchen.

Immediately after.

Whoosh—!

The entire plaza, thousands of top-tier experts who could make a region tremble by just stomping their feet in the Tianwu Continent, one by one, all knelt on the ground.

The scene was incredibly magnificent.

"All of you, rise."

Lu Yuchen waved his hand, a look of seeing a bumpkin on his face.

Then he began his most proficient "deception" endeavor.

"This Sect Master, and my Tai Xuan Immortal Sect, cultivate not the martial Dao that you know."

"But rather… the supreme Immortal Dao, which transcends it, can pluck stars and seize the moon, and can live as long as heaven and earth!"

"As for why this Sect Master knows about the alien realm…"

He paused, his voice carrying a hint of thought-provoking mystery.

"Because my Tai Xuan Immortal Sect is an Immortal Legacy passed down from ancient times to the present!"

He repeated the entire set of "ancient secrets" that he had used to deceive Xuanzang before, such as the Heavenly Court, the Underworld, the Demon Court, the three Daoist Sects, Western Buddhism… adding embellishments.

He completely awed the "native" experts below the stage, who had never seen the world, causing their worldviews to instantly shatter.

"This… what does this have to do with the alien realm invasion?"

Finally, someone recovered from the immense shock and asked the crucial question.

"Well asked."

Lu Yuchen nodded approvingly, a look of "teachable child" satisfaction on his face.

Immediately, he changed the subject, his voice suddenly becoming somewhat heavy.

"Do you know that in the incomparably distant Immortal Ancient Era, there was once a central world among the myriad worlds?"

Everyone held their breath, pricking up their ears, afraid to miss a single word.

Lu Yuchen didn't keep them in suspense, two magically resonant words clearly echoed in everyone's ears.

"Honghuang!"

"In that era, the Honghuang World was the center of the myriad worlds, the Origin of all realms, and even the pilgrimage site that all strong cultivators dreamed of!"

"It suppressed all worlds outside of Honghuang, maintaining the order of the myriad worlds!"

"But later…"

Lu Yuchen's voice carried a hint of compassionate desolation.

"A supreme tribulation, sweeping across the entire world, erupted."

"Humans, demons, devils, Buddhas, ghosts… countless strong cultivators, in order to seize that last glimmer of hope, fought until the heavens collapsed, the earth shattered, and the sun and moon lost their light!"

"Ultimately, the entire Honghuang World was shattered into countless fragments, scattered throughout the endless Chaos Void."

At this point, he paused, his gaze calmly sweeping over the faces below the stage, which were already numb with shock.

Everyone's hearts, at this moment, leaped into their throats.

They seemed to have already guessed an answer that they found somewhat absurd, yet full of endless temptation…

Lu Yuchen looked at their expressions.

He knew the time was ripe.

"And among them, a core fragment carrying the Origin of the Honghuang World, after billions of years of evolution, finally formed a… world of the Dharma-ending Age."

His voice drifted, as if carrying a magical power that could penetrate time and space.

"This world is both a thorn in the side of all ambitious people in the myriad worlds."

"At the same time, it is also the most tempting, most succulent… hot commodity in their eyes!"

"Once discovered by them, what awaits this world will be endless… plundering and war!"

As the words fell.

The entire plaza was so quiet that a pin drop could be heard.

Everyone's breathing, at this moment, completely stopped!

They seemed to have already seen the apocalyptic scene of mountains of corpses, seas of blood, and lives devastated!

"Sect… Sect Leader Lu…"

The True One Holy Master's voice carried an uncontrollable tremble.

"You… you mean…"

Lu Yuchen did not answer.

He simply slowly extended his right hand.

And lightly pointed at the vast land beneath his feet.

Then, in a calm tone, as if stating a fact, he slowly spoke.

"That's right."

"This Tianwu World beneath your feet is the world evolved from that core fragment."

Boom!

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire plaza erupted again.

Shock!

Horror!

Disbelief!

Immediately followed by endless… pride!

We are actually the… descendants of the legendary Honghuang World?!

But after the pride, came deeper… worry and fear.

An innocent man is guilty for possessing a treasure!

Even a three-year-old child understands this principle.

What awaits them?
