At this point in the conversation, with Lu Xiaobu’s identity revealed, this battle was inevitable.
anwhile, Hu Nanshan wasn’t idle either. Seeing the situation turning unfavorable, he notified his long-awaiting forces to attack the Zhanlong Sect!
These three City Lords might not put in much effort, but the Sect Master of the Zhanlong Sect, whose son was killed, would surely flay Lu Xiaobu alive.
No more words were exchanged, and the battle instantly turned white-hot.
Hu Nanshan swung a sword, transforming into a torrential rain of swords in the air, pouring down on Lu Xiaobu.
Myriad Sword Technique!
Lu Xiaobu was too fast; only wide-range attacks could ensure damage.
The other three City Lords weren’t idle either, launching widespread attacks.
However, Lu Xiaobu’s careful planning paid off; all three did not go for the kill, leaving so strength in reserve in case of unexpected situations.
Seeing this, Hu Nanshan gritted his teeth in fury!
But there was nothing he could say, he could only continue his concentrated assault. As long as Lu Xiaobu was killed, everything else would fall into place.
Lu Xiaobu’s body moved swiftly in the air, dodging attacks from all sides with a speed of two Machs.
Hu Nanshan sneered continuously.
What use is speed?
Isn’t he still getting beaten like a rabbit?
As for Lu Xiaobu’s close combat attacks?
Honestly, Hu Nanshan was waiting for it. Once Lu Xiaobu engaged in close combat, he would seize him just like a myriad sword capture.
At that mont, an energy hand began to appear in the air.
It was Lu Xiaobu’s Dragon Capturing Hand.
"Crush it."
Upon Hu Nanshan’s command, their attacks sward in an instant, smashing the yet-to-form Dragon Capturing Hand into debris.
Seeing this, Hu Nanshan sneered even more, thinking did you really think I wouldn’t anticipate this?
Bao Wu couldn’t bear to watch this scene.
He felt that Lu Xiaobu was done for.
Indeed, facing five Golden Core Late Stage opponents while still in the Foundation Establishnt Stage, Lu Xiaobu had done remarkably well.
What a sha for such a rare genius!
Why did he have to be from the Demon Realm!
Because Lu Xiaobu was too fast, everyone attacked blindly, vaguely aware of Lu Xiaobu’s range, but unable to discern his movents.
Little did they know, Lu Xiaobu had taken out seven elixirs!
If those in the Golden Core Stage could have seen this, they definitely would have shouted out!
Breakthrough Pill!
This is the elixir used to help one in the Foundation Establishnt Late Stage breakthrough to the Golden Core Stage.
Such elixirs are precious, with Nanshan Academy possessing only five in total, let alone Linren City, where even seeing one is a rarity.
Yet now, there were seven of them in Lu Xiaobu’s hands.
Among them, five belonged to Nanshan City, which Lu Xiaobu stealthily acquired using his authority.
After all, during this period at Nanshan Academy, he called the shots; moving things around was easy.
The remaining two were purchased using the wealth accumulated from the business he established in Linren City.
Of course, directly purchasing such elixirs would have been too costly, but Lu Xiaobu had the only Alchemist in Nanshan City!
He bought raw materials and began refining elixirs.
These five were originally refined by the Alchemist, so the process was smooth.
Thus, Lu Xiaobu ca into possession of seven Breakthrough Pills.
Actually, Lu Xiaobu could have already advanced to the Golden Core Stage, but he didn’t.
If he had advanced earlier, Hu Nanshan would certainly have called for reinforcents, which would have been more troubleso.
So, he chose to consu them during combat.
And that’s why he had previously deceived them, so they wouldn’t go for the kill, giving him ti to act.
Otherwise, if five Golden Core Stage experts attacked him with lethal intent.
He would truly have been dood!
Even with great speed, he would have perished!
Watching Hu Nanshan sneering from a distance, Lu Xiaobu smiled faintly, and then tilted his head back, swallowing all seven Breakthrough Pills.
In an instant, he felt the seven elixirs transform into a surge of explosive warmth within, which could only be likened to magma rather than a re warm current.
Just imagine, a single Breakthrough Pill would be unbearable for an ordinary person, feeling as if their ridians were on fire, so imagine taking seven at once.
If it weren’t for Lu Xiaobu’s robust physique, he might have burst apart.
Moreover, this burning sensation slowed him down, causing him to sustain several hits.
If it weren’t for the three City Lords holding back, he would have been attacked from both inside and out, bursting to death.
Also, the Charging Shield he’d had since acquiring it was completely depleted and disappeared for the first ti!
The energy magma ford by seven elixirs surged into his Dantian.
Once inside, this energy didn’t separate into seven but poured like a torrential waterfall onto the robotic Foundation Establishnt inside Lu Xiaobu’s Dantian!
As the pouring continued, Lu Xiaobu noticed each component of the robot becoming increasingly solid.
The color deepened.
Moreover, this torrent of energy, like surging river water smoothing stones, made each part increasingly rounded.
Even the giant sword was no exception.
As things rounded, these parts began to feel more and more real.
The key was, they were getting stronger and stronger.
Liu Funing frowned as he watched Lu Xiaobu slow down suddenly: "What’s going on? Is he out of strength?"
"Who cares, if he’s slowing down, then let’s kill him." He Quwu squinted his eyes: "I bet he no longer has that Heavenly Returning Skill he ntioned! Let’s use all our strength! Don’t hold back anymore!"
"Yes, the Demon Realm’s person must be killed!" Qi Jiatong nodded in agreent.
If Lu Xiaobu had grown stronger, enough to counterattack Hu Nanshan, they might have held back so strength.
But seeing Lu Xiaobu visibly weaken, they decided to increase the pressure.
The old headmaster sighed as he watched, feeling a mix of emotions.
However, no matter how complicated his feelings, he couldn’t hold back.
Bao Wu’s expression grew somber, and he closed his eyes.
Lu Xiaobu’s greatest reliance—speed—had slowed down, aning he was definitely dood!
Never mind, I’ll take care of your remains and worship you every year.
After all, we had so ntor-student relationship!
As everyone was certain that Lu Xiaobu was dood, a sudden surge of Qi erupted from his body!
This Qi was unstable, a sign of an upcoming breakthrough.
"Not good! He’s about to advance! Quickly! Don’t hold back, increase the attack!"
Hu Nanshan instantly turned a bit hysterical!
He never imagined Lu Xiaobu had such a plan!
Breaking through during battle?!
Advancing to the Golden Core Stage?!
When he was already a formidable opponent in the Foundation Establishnt Late Stage, what would he be after reaching the Golden Core?!
Fear surged uncontrollably in Hu Nanshan’s heart!
