Global Awakening: I'm the Only One Ready

Just now, the Celestial Starfield Lord had already brought out one of his strongest methods.

Forget Creation Immortals. Even Celestial Seat Immortals would suffer heavy injuries if struck head-on. Yet Lu Yuan had recovered in a short time, and his battle intent was even stronger than before.

The Celestial Starfield Lord did not know what to say, and bitterness crossed his face. He did not understand why Lu Yuan insisted on doing this.

Was Lu Yuan risking his life in battle?

Under such circumstances, the Celestial Starfield Lord could only continue circulating the power within him and meet Lu Yuan head-on.

Moreover, he had also reached the point of real anger. Lu Yuan was only a Creation Immortal. Even if his talent was unsurpassed and he had grown to such a level in just a few short years, so what?

To the Celestial Starfield Lord, none of that mattered. If one was not a Celestial Seat Immortal, one could not understand the gap between the two realms.

So the Celestial Starfield Lord attacked again, the aura around him erupting violently as endless thunder roared and lightning danced.

Lu Yuan was not willing to show weakness either. Golden blood qi surged from him.

Power shook and rumbled continuously. The two of them clashed again just as before. No one held back. Both used their strongest methods.

Below, the Celestials were all shocked at the sight.

They had originally thought Lu Yuan was already dead, but to their surprise, he had recovered almost immediately. More importantly, his battle intent was even stronger than before. It was almost impossible to believe.

”Is he some kind of monster?” someone said, not knowing how to describe the situation. He was clearly one realm lower, yet he could hold up such a fight against their Starfield Lord.

In the entire universe, no one else could likely do this, right? It was the same for the other Celestials. They were at a loss of words.

In the void, the battle continued.

Rumble.

Heaven and earth roared. Spatial cracks appeared one after another. The earth split open, ravines crisscrossing it.

The aura released by the battle between the two reshaped a vast stretch of mountains and rivers.

This was the battle of actual powerhouses.

Pfft.

In the next moment, Lu Yuan’s shoulder was shattered. Blood welled beneath the black lightning. Even so, his eyes remained as firm as before, and he continued throwing punches.

Opposite him, the Celestial Starfield Lord’s expression also began changing. He felt that Lu Yuan seemed to know no fatigue.

Even though he unleashed terrifying power and continuously wounded Lu Yuan, Lu Yuan seemed not to feel it at all and continued fighting. Uncertainty began to rise in the Celestial Starfield Lord’s heart.

The Celestial Starfield Lord knew very well how far a Creation Immortal could go. Under his methods, anyone else would have failed to hold on long ago and been killed outright.

The problem was that Lu Yuan still fought with terrifying power. The strength behind Lu Yuan’s attacks and the power within him had not decreased in the slightest.

The Celestial Starfield Lord wondered how long this battle would continue. He knew he could not allow it to go on. He had to use his killing move.

With this thought, he immediately retreated and vanished entirely.

The surrounding world was sealed in an instant, and a destructive aura spread through the heavens.

After Lu Yuan sensed this, his expression changed slightly. He wanted to search for the Celestial Starfield Lord, but was shocked to discover that he could not sense the latter.

More importantly, his soul also seemed to begin trembling. He felt like he was reaching the very end of life. An unprecedented sense of crisis struck him.

Before he could react, the void shook, and a shadow appeared.

The Celestial Starfield Lord had transformed into lightning, but this lightning was not large, and only about the size of a person. Yet the destructive aura it released surpassed anything from before.

It seemed to represent the tribulation of heaven itself as it descended straight toward Lu Yuan. Its speed was too fast. It seemed to freeze time itself, giving its target no chance to react.

Pfft.

The next moment, Lu Yuan suffered a heavy blow, and spat blood. He could not withstand the hit and cracks spread across him.

His chest, arms, and other areas revealed ghastly white bones.

This strike was undoubtedly the strongest blow he had endured since he walked on the path of evolution. Even his origin had suffered a tremendous threat. If not for his powerful origin and foundation, he might have died in that instant.

Soon, the Celestial Starfield Lord’s figure appeared with a solemn expression and his aura was a little weaker than before.

Even so, his gaze did not change. He only looked at Lu Yuan in shock. ”My strongest strike actually still failed to kill you?”

The Celestial Starfield Lord shocked with disbelief. That had been a strike fused with Celestial Seat laws. He had thought it would succeed, but the result had completely exceeded his expectations. Lu Yuan’s flame of life had not gone out.

”If you had been a little stronger, I definitely would not have been able to withstand it,” Lu Yuan said in a hoarse voice.

Indeed. The strike just now had nearly taken his life. But nearly meant it was not sufficient.

In the next moment, terrifying battle intent erupted from him again.

In that instant between life and death, all of his potential had been stimulated, and that new feeling emerged once more.

He had grasped it. He had truly grasped it. The feeling of entering the Celestial Seat Immortal Realm and comprehending Celestial Seat laws.

Lu Yuan gained enlightenment once more, and his entire aura became even more majestic than before.

Sharp light appeared in his eyes, and his battle intent shook the heavens.

”You are using me as your whetstone?”

Finally, the Celestial Starfield Lord reacted.

There was something amiss about Lu Yuan’s state. This was the kind of enlightenment that appeared only after one’s realm reached a certain level and encountered a bottleneck, and usually only at the instant between life and death.

So he immediately understood that Lu Yuan wanted to step into the Celestial Seat Immortal Realm. That was why Lu Yuan had chosen to fight him and take that crucial step.

For a moment, boundless anger surfaced in his heart.

As someone who could become the lord of a starfield, how could he not have been a Ranker, a prodigy genius?

Back then, he had once been the Holy Son of the Celestials. On his path of growth, he had always been the one treating others as stepping stones, to eventually reach this current stage.

Yet now, after he had attained the Celestial Seat Immortal Realm, he had become another person’s whetstone for cultivation and evolution.

He found this hard to accept. This was downright humiliation.

However, Lu Yuan no longer cared what the Celestial Starfield Lord thought.

He had grasped that opportunity. In the next moment, he repaired his injuries. Blood qi surged from him again, and power surged from him.

Although he had not yet stepped into that realm, that single moment of comprehension had already greatly increased his strength.
