Chapter 10: Ten Thousand Ren City: No One Is Allowed to Traverse the Sky!
A deep blue radiance bloomed at Lu Ren's fingertips.
He calmly condensed the Time Law at his fingertips, shrouding and covering the entire Lu Family.
Huo Ge's ferocious expression in the sky didn't even have time to retract; he looked like a clown performing a farce, still ferociously shouting, "I... just... don't... believe... Lu..."
Each word was drawn out incredibly long, and Lu Ren couldn't help but scoff.
A sword had appeared in his hand at some unknown moment. Looking at the slightly spiritual sword in Huo Ge's hand, Lu Ren said indifferently, "Using a sword?"
"That is not how a sword is used."
A cyan radiance bloomed at the tip of the sword in his hand; the sword named Xuangguang had long since been unable to wait, its blade trembling continuously.
That sword Qi, which hadn't yet had time to be released from the tip of Huo Ge's sword, already showed signs of being on the verge of collapse the moment Lu Ren raised his hand and lifted his sword.
Lu Ren, like an ordinary person with no Spirit Power, raised his hand and casually swung his sword.
The explosive sword Qi surged forward like a crescent moon and a shooting star at the tip of his blade, flipping over everyone it encountered along the way; like dumplings falling from the sky, they dropped one by one, slamming heavily onto the ground.
There were almost no visible wounds on their bodies, but only they themselves knew that inside them, the terrifying sword Qi was like fine, soft needles—sometimes soft, sometimes hard—rampaging through their meridians.
If they could not clear away these fine, hair-like sword Qi, I fear they would struggle to make even an inch of progress for the rest of their lives.
As the person facing the sword Qi head-on, Huo Ge wanted to dodge immediately.
But while his brain reacted, his body simply wouldn't listen to him; the movement of raising his hand was terrifyingly slow, and he was still calling out, "Ren... in... see... to... Lu... Family... being..."
He hadn't even finished his previous sentence before the sword Qi had already swallowed him.
Huo Ge was extremely anxious! He had once deeply experienced just how terrifying Lu Ren's sword was.
If he were truly enveloped by the sword Qi and took a hit like that, his years, or even decades, of bitter cultivation would all be wasted!
Move! Damn body, move for me!
Huo Ge roared continuously in his heart, but if the Time Law were truly that easy to break through, it wouldn't be a Law.
At the critical moment when his eyes were splitting with rage, the Mud Platform, which had looked dead just a moment ago, suddenly flew in front of him uncontrollably, blocking a blow for him! "Oh?"
A trace of surprise flashed in Lu Ren's eyes.
He hadn't paid attention just now, but looking at it now, this Mud Platform had a rounded and extremely thick aura, exuding a heavy earthy energy; it was actually a rare treasure.
Interesting.
The crystallization of the Time Law shattered at Lu Ren's fingertips. As the only person not restricted by time, he reached out, took the Mud Platform, and placed it before him to observe it carefully.
As for the others, the moment the Time Law was lifted, they were like someone on fast-forward; they couldn't control their bodies at all, either darting away at high speed or falling down in extreme terror.
Huo Ge had reached the Saint Realm and barely possessed self-control, just managing to steady his figure. He had no time to denounce Lu Ren's act of seizing his Spirit Treasure, and only roared in both shock and jealousy.
"Impossible!"
"How are you able to use the Time Law to this extent!"
He gazed at Lu Ren's jet-black hair, and the jealousy in his heart almost turned into insects, gnawing his heart away completely!
To use the Time Law so extravagantly, freezing such a group of Saint Realm cultivators, including him, a Supreme Saint, and even having energy to spare while within the area shrouded by the Time Law.
Was Lu Ren's lifespan inexhaustible and endless!! Huo Ge had once obtained a crystal containing imprinted fragments of the Time Law to study, but he had only taken one look, and by the time he came to his senses, ten years of his lifespan had drained away!
It scared him into completely sealing that crystal away; he didn't dare harbor any covetous thoughts toward the Time Law at all. The Time Law was good, but looking at it was fatal, let alone using it.
Could this monster Lu Ren truly be immortal? Lu Ren could not hear the jealousy burning in Huo Ge's heart, but just looking at that ugly face, he knew what he was thinking.
"Using it?" Lu Ren said, completely unconcerned, "It's just lifespan; one way or another, one can break through a realm in a few years. Is there truly anyone in this world who cannot break through a single realm in ten years?"
What arrogant words! Many people nearby couldn't help but curse inwardly.
Damn monster! "You!" Huo Ge, who found breaking through realms to be a major difficulty, was directly stabbed by the remark; he wished he could eat his flesh and drink his blood alive.
But just then, he saw Lu Ren take the Mud Platform he often sat on into his hand.
Huo Ge frowned, just about to say that this thing was not his life-bound Spirit Treasure, and even if Lu Ren destroyed it, it would cause him no harm.
But before his words could even leave his mouth, Lu Ren had already pried the Mud Platform open, tossed it aside without a care, and took only one object from within.
"What... is that?" Not far away, Qin Yuan suddenly clutched his chest; his heart was about to jump out.
He squinted his eyes and tried hard to see, but he couldn't see clearly.
But there was a voice in his heart clamoring continuously.
Get it! Must get it! That thing was originally supposed to belong to him!!
In front, Lu Ren was already smiling, pinching a tiny bead in his hand; it looked to be the size of a human eyeball, yet this bead was overflowing with thick Earth Spirit energy, though it was slightly withered now.
Lu Ren sighed with emotion: "Sure enough, even a Spirit Treasure must follow the right master. This Innate Spiritual Treasure, following you, Huo Ge, is truly a Spirit Treasure covered in dust."
"Only knowing how to drain, not knowing how to nourish; it is a waste of this Innate Spiritual Treasure Earth Spirit Bead. Fortunately, it met me."
"From now on, this treasure bears the surname Lu."
Huo Ge's eyeballs were almost falling out from jealousy.
It is well known that there are only nine Innate Spiritual Treasures in total, and they are the most powerful supreme treasures in the world.
But what had he done? He had actually treated an Innate Spiritual Treasure as a treasure rich in earthy energy and sat on it under his backside for thousands of years!! Huo Ge could no longer endure it and roared: "Return my Earth Spirit Bead!"
"Lu Ren, I am now a Supreme Saint; you cannot beat me. Surrender obediently and return this old man's Earth Spirit Bead!!"
Seeing him rushing over, Lu Ren did not dodge or evade, his eyes holding only a faint scoff and indifference.
"Supreme Saint?"
The aura gathered within his body erupted violently! It directly flipped over everyone who had besieged the Lu Family. Qin Yuan had it the worst; as the one who was targeted the most severely, even if Lu Ren couldn't crush him to death directly, it still sent him flying back heavily, a mouthful of thick blood spraying out!
Qin Yuan couldn't crawl up for a long time; he felt as if his internal organs had all shifted positions! Not to mention Yu Ruowei; even though Qin Yuan had tried his best to protect her, at this moment, the blood flowing from her mouth and nose had soaked the collar of her clothes, and she had passed out miserably.
Huo Ge stopped in mid-air in disbelief: "You!? Lu Ren? Since when did you become a Supreme Saint!!"
Lu Ren did not answer this question, only toying with the Earth Spirit Bead, his gaze like a sword.
"Decades ago, there was a major realm difference between our cultivation levels, and you couldn't beat me."
"Now, we are in the same realm; what makes you think you can win against me by even half a point?"
"Get down here!"
"This is Wanren City; no one is permitted to travel through the air!"
