This Earth Is A Bit Fearsome

chapter-1060
"Zhang Tao, what are you planning to do? Are you going to start a war in the Great Void Pavilion?" Kou Yuande shouted loudly. He had no choice but to mobilise all of his mana to resist Zhang Tao's imposing aura.
Kou Yuande was not afraid of Zhang Tao. Although Zhang Tao's strength was much stronger than his, this was the Great Void Pavilion, and the number of experts were as numerous as the clouds. If Zhang Tao were to start an all-out war, the consequences would not be something he could bear.
Zhang Tao and Kou Yuande represented two different factions. He's from the faction of the current Pavilion Master of the Great Void Pavilion, Venerable Han Lin.
Zhang Tao had a super family of the Great Void Pavilion backing him up - the ancestor of the Zhang family.
These two factions were fighting over the leadership of the Great Void Pavilion. However, Venerable Han Lin had the upper hand currently, which was why he was able to become the Pavilion Master of the Great Void Pavilion.The Zhang family on the other hand, had high hopes for Zhang Tao. Now that he was already a peak gold immortal, Zhang Tao's future could be said to be great.
Once Zhang Tao became a Golden Immortal, he would be able to greatly enhance the strength of the Zhang family faction.
In the internal strife of a first-rate force like the Great Void Pavilion, gold immortals had no say at all. Only Golden Immortals had the right to speak, as what they hold was the real decisive power.
The number of Golden Immortals they had on their sides was a comparison of their strength.
Even so, both sides maintained the fight without breaking breaking any basic rules. It was hard to say when they were outside, but in the Great Void Pavilion, he did not believe that Zhang Tao would dare to harm him.
That would mean that he did not care about the entire Great Void Pavilion.
"You want to fight? Are you worthy?" Zhang Tao glanced at Kou Yuande coldly, not caring about him at all.He already knew that Lu Xuan entered the Primal Chaos Lightning Pool from the peak-stage gold immortal who was guarding the pool.
He was too late!
Zhang Tao's eyes flickered with a shocking killing intent.
"Go on and tell Lu Xuan that when he comes out of seclusion, I'll fight him. I wonder if he dares to fight me?" Zhang Tao said coldly.
"You want to disregard the rules and bully the weak?" Kou Yuande shouted.
Zhang Tao was much older than Lu Xuan. Although he was only about 500 years old, he was still a promising young man at the peak of a gold immortal.
However, Lu Xuan was only less than a 100 years old and there was such a big age gap between them.
If there was a gap of a few hundred years between immortal kings, they were basically the same age. However, for the gold immortals, especially the legendary geniuses, even if there was a gap of a few decades, the strength of the two sides might have a difference comparable to Heaven and Earth, let alone a few hundred years.
"The strong bullying the weak? Isn't Lu Xuan a monster who is said to be one in a thousand years? I don't think he will mind!" Zhang Tao laughed grimly, his expression somewhat malevolent. "If he is afraid of me, all he has to do is shout that he is inferior to me in front of everyone for three times!"
Kou Yuande stared at Zhang Tao with wide eyes. Zhang Tao's method was even more vicious than defeating Lu Xuan in public.
For legendary geniuses like them, which one of them was not a born big shot? Under normal circumstances, they would not lower their heads and admit their mistakes.
It was okay to lose the battle, but if they admitted their mistakes and admitted defeat, their pride would be completely broken.
It was equivalent to killing someone's heart!
However, he immediately knew why Zhang Tao hated Lu Xuan so much. Originally, the opportunity to use the Primal Chaos Lightning Pool this time round was given to Zhang Tao.
Zhang Tao was already a peak gold immortal. If he used the Primal Chaos Lightning Pool, his cultivation base might improve. If he was lucky, it was not impossible for him to become a Golden Immortal.
However, Venerable Han Lin pushed aside all the objections and allowed Lu Xuan to come before him.
According to the rules of the Primal Chaos Lightning Pool, it was only opened once every hundred years. This was because the Primal Chaos Lightning Pool was limited and could only be opened once in a while. Otherwise, if it was used unlimitedly, it would be used up very quickly.
In the past, the Great Void Pavilion did not have such worries because the Great Void Immortal King could replenish the energy of the Primal Chaos Lightning Pool.
During that era, the Great Void Pavilion could be said to have many experts, and there were all sorts of Golden Immortals.
However, ever since the disappearance of the Great Void Immortal King, the frequency of using the Primal Chaos Lightning Pool had decreased. No one could replenish the energy of the pool like the Great Void Immortal King did, and it was too slow to rely on the formation left behind by the Great Void Immortal King to replenish it.
Compared to the situation where many Golden Immortals could use the Primal Chaos Lightning Pool together, this was a far cry.
Until now, only one person was allowed to enter the pool to cultivate after a hundred years. Usually, it would be a Golden Immortal, and among the gold immortals, only top-notch geniuses like Zhang Tao and Lu Xuan were allowed to enter. Right now, only the star of tomorrow who was highly anticipated would be allowed to enter the pool to cultivate.
Anyway, Kou Yuande knew that he did not have much of a chance.
But now, Zhang Tao's opportunity had been snatched away by Lu Xuan. The next time he could use it would be a hundred years later.
It might seem that they were separated by a hundred years, but in the competition for legendary geniuses like them, if they were separated by a hundred years, they would probably be left behind by the other legendary geniuses.
And with the talent and strength of other legendary geniuses, if they were separated by a single position, they might never be able to catch up.
Cutting off one's wealth was like killing off one's parents, not to mention cutting off one's opportunities.
No wonder Zhang Tao was willing to go against the rules of the Great Void Pavilion to bully the weak and kill Lu Xuan, cutting off Lu Xuan's future.
There were no personal grudges, only conflicts of interest, which was even harder to resolve.
"It's not your place to refuse. I'll wait for him to come out of seclusion and find him!"
Zhang Tao sneered. He did not give Kou Yuande the chance to refuse as he turned into a streak of light and disappeared.
"What troubled times!"
Kou Yuande sighed. How could he not understand that someone was going to suppress Lu Xuan.
And Zhang Tao was just using this as an excuse!
And this was also a huge test for Lu Xuan. If he could not pass this test, his popularity would really plummet.
However, this was an open plot. He was forced into a corner and had no way out!
Lu Xuan did not know that there were people outside plotting to deal with him.
At this moment, he had already entered the Primal Chaos Lightning Pool.
The Primal Chaos Lightning Pool was an independent interdimensional plane. There was nothing else but endless lightning energy.
Countless bolts of lightning landed on Lu Xuan's body and directly struck him until his entire body was covered in blood.
Although Lu Xuan did not have any defence, with the strength of Lu Xuan's body, just the periphery of the Primal Chaos Lightning Pool was enough to injure Lu Xuan's body and cause him to bleed non-stop.
The power of the Primal Chaos Lightning Pool was indeed extraordinary.
Lu Xuan immediately dived into the endless Chaos Divine Lightning, allowing countless of them to land on his body.
The power of the lightning was simply like sharp blades, tearing open huge wounds on his body. Blood dripped down and the wounds were so deep that his bones could be seen.
The intense pain stimulated every nerve.
Lu Xuan's expression did not change as he allowed the endless pain to torment his nerves.
