Global Awakening: I'm the Only One Ready

Chapter 320. Striking Amid the Chaos, Killing Intent, the Blood Coffin’s Anomaly

In fact, Lu Yuan had been monitoring every movement of everyone present. He knew very well that Lei Xiao, the one who had proposed that everyone join forces, could not possibly have harbored simple intentions.

And sure enough, Lei Xiao had chosen this moment of chaos to make his move. His target was actually that blood-red coffin.

Everyone present knew that within it lay the greatest fortune in the entire Immortal’s Cave.

At this moment, the others also saw Lei Xiao’s movement, and their expressions changed in shock as they finally understood.

Unfortunately, they no longer had any opportunity left. They were completely overwhelmed by Lu Yuan’s power, their bodies and souls both dispersing together.

Under the amplification of combat strength, even Void Sages had no room whatsoever to resist Lu Yuan and were slain outright.

One had to know that there had been over a hundred Sages present. Even in the cosmos, that was a force not easily overlooked.

At the very least, such was the case for any race not ranked among the top hundred starfields. Yet now, under a single move from Lu Yuan, their life force was rapidly being extinguished.

At the same time, Yu Heng of the Eternals was still there, desperately resisting. He knew that if he failed to do so, then disaster would befall him as well.

But at this moment, Yu Heng hated Lei Xiao even more for suddenly making his move to seize the blood-red coffin.

All of a sudden, Yu Heng felt the power before him weaken slightly, and was instantly alarmed. In the next moment, he saw Lu Yuan in the distance raise his palm once more.

Buddha’s Palm Domain appeared again, enveloping Lei Xiao, who had already rushed onto the platform.

Having come here, Lu Yuan naturally had no intention of handing over the ultimate fortune to someone else.

”In a situation like this, he can still split his attention?”

On the other side, when Lei Xiao saw the ancient temples rising from the ground around him, he was immediately stunned; he found it hard to believe.

He had thought that once Lu Yuan went all out, he would be able to exploit the chaos.

Who could have guessed that Lu Yuan still had strength to spare?

Left with no choice, Lei Xiao could only once again circulate all the power in his body. After all, he was only a single step away from that blood-red coffin.

Crackle! Crackle!

In an instant, endless thunder roared around Lei Xiao. His speed increased yet again as he tried to break through the Buddha’s Palm Domain.

For a moment, two battlefields appeared within the area. Immense power shook the air and surged wildly, as though it might destroy everything around it.

Boom!

At last, with another tremendous explosion, all the power and all the light vanished.

Of the nearly one hundred Sages present, ninety percent had already been slaughtered. Only the strongest few remained, and even they were now breathing weakly.

Even Yu Heng of the Eternals suffered the same fate. He was also gasping for breath, his face pale.

As for Lei Xiao in the other battlefield, the wings on his back had already been torn open. He stood in midair, drop after drop of blood falling from his body as he looked utterly bedraggled.

Only Lu Yuan still stood in the air, and the aura emanating from him was even stronger than before.

Those who had survived were all trembling with fear at the sight. They had never imagined such an outcome. All of them had joined hands, yet they still had not been able to withstand even one exchange with the human.

Ninety percent had been slain, and the rest no longer possessed the strength to continue fighting.

”The fact that you managed to endure until now means you’ve done fairly well. But that is all,” Lu Yuan spoke again.

His eyes remained calm, as though the battle outcome before him did not matter to him at all, nor was it even enough to be worth his attention.

More importantly, a chilling killing intent began to radiate from him

Lu Yuan’s thinking was very simple.

Since they had chosen death of their own accord, why should he show them any courtesy?

It’s over.

As soon as Lu Yuan’s killing intent spread, both Yu Heng and Lei Xiao were shaken to the core.

They knew that if this continued, they would undoubtedly die here. Especially given Lu Yuan’s strength, they had no hope of escaping.

Were they simply going to accept their demise just like this?

”No. Even if I die, I’ll drag you down with me,” Yu Heng spat, a hint of madness laced in his voice.

Though he knew full well that he was no match for Lu Yuan, that did not mean he had no options at all.

Without the slightest hesitation, he once again unleashed the power within him and threw out a punch.

His target this time: the blood-red coffin.

Yu Heng knew that thing was extraordinary.

A coffin was something meant to bury living beings. Even though he did not know what lay inside, he felt certain that whatever inside could not be ordinary.

If he shattered that coffin with his strike, perhaps a great calamity would emerge in this place.

Earlier, Yu Heng would have hesitated. But now that he knew he was doomed regardless, then he might as well make Lu Yuan die with him.

Meanwhile, Lei Xiao of the Celestials also realized this point. Without hesitation, he too used the last of his strength.

The two of them were already spent arrows at the end of their flight. They knew that under such circumstances, it was impossible for them to leave alive.

So if that was the case, then they might as well bring down this great enemy with them.

Naturally, Lu Yuan noticed their actions. Without hesitation, he stepped forward directly, then raised his hand.

Buzz—

Streams of light surged forth as golden vital qi and the Great Sun’s Furnace intertwined.

The attacks of the two men were blocked by him in an instant. They could not touch the blood-red coffin at all.

”Playing tricks right under my eyes? Do you really think you could succeed?”

Lu Yuan shook his head. His patience had already been exhausted completely.

Once he dealt with the remaining Outer Cosmos beings here, he could then investigate the final region of the Immortal’s Cave and that blood-red coffin in peace.

When Yu Heng and Lei Xiao saw that their sabotage attempt had been halted, their eyes filled with despair.

The pressure Lu Yuan gave them was simply too great. Clearly, they were all in the same realm, and yet now, they found themselves utterly incapable of resisting.

Just how many abilities did this man still have?

Was he truly invincible beneath the stars?

For a moment, neither of them knew what to say. They gave up completely.

At the same time, Lu Yuan raised his hand once more.

The Heaven-Flipping Seal appeared and expanded to the size of a mountain as he prepared to deliver the final blow to the surviving Outer Cosmos beings present.

Just then, his eyes suddenly narrowed, and a chill swept through his entire body.

Without another word, golden vital qi surged, and the Great Sun’s Furnace enveloped his whole body.

He turned around.

The blood-red coffin on the platform suddenly began to tremble. One blood-red ray of light after another burst out explosively. That strange aura instantly spread across the entire region.

Szzzz—

A bizarre sound rang out.

Everyone watched as the lid of that blood-red coffin slowly shifted.

Only a narrow gap had opened, and yet endless blood-colored mist was already gushing out from within.

”Look, the entrance has closed!” someone shouted, pointing toward the place where everyone had entered from.

Only then did they discover that the entrance was gone and that they were trapped.

As more and more blood-colored mist poured out, the entire region became increasingly oppressive.

At this moment, every single person could feel an indescribable sense of danger.
