Just the composure and calm demeanor displayed here surpass most of the disciples.
Not every disciple facing Xu Haotian can maintain such poise.
"Oh? Confident and fearless?"
"I assume you believe that, as a talent like yourself, the Dao Foundation experts of the Ancient Domain Heavenly Sect will surely protect you."
"It’s fine, perhaps I can’t kill you, but I will bring you a crushing defeat. I will tarnish your mind, allowing an inner demon to take root and grow within you for the rest of your life, completely blocking your path in martial arts!"
"That would be more satisfying than killing you."
Xu Haotian did not conceal his intentions.
"Enough talk, let’s see the truth with our actions."
"Let me witness the power of a truly top-tier Divine Treasure!"
Lu Changsheng took a step forward.
Not even the slightest hint of retreat or fear was evident.
Instead, he stepped forward, one step at a time, heading directly toward Xu Haotian.
At this moment, Lu Guan was closest to Lu Changsheng.
"No wonder he’s a newly ascended Divine Treasure, able to slay the elite disciple Long Yun, and even dare to reverse Divine Treasure..."
Lu Guan praised him sincerely.
Although they were both True Disciples, Lu Guan knew deeply.
The differences among True Disciples were significant.
Lu Changsheng has the potential to forge a Dao Foundation and is regarded across the entire Ancient Domain Heavenly Sect as the most promising genius.
Merely a seasoned True Disciple.
At best, he could aim for the Divine Treasure peak.
Stepping beyond, to forge a Dao Foundation, was almost impossible in this lifetime.
Previously, Lu Guan thought it might be due to his lack of talent.
But now, seeing Lu Changsheng’s boldness, he suddenly understood that maybe his talent was never the issue.
The problem lay in his mind!
His mind was too weak!
How could a weak mind sustain the forging of a Dao Foundation?
Lu Changsheng paid no attention to the thoughts of those around him.
He simply walked forward, step by step, steadily approaching Xu Haotian.
After months of secluded cultivation, his purpose was entirely to deal with Xu Haotian.
As long as Xu Haotian existed, Lu Changsheng would never find peace.
Since Xu Haotian had come to his door, Lu Changsheng decided to seize this opportunity to completely settle the matter!
Step by step, one step, two steps, three steps...
After three steps, there was now merely ten zhang of distance between Lu Changsheng and Xu Haotian.
Ten zhang, to top-tier Divine Treasures, practically feels like "within arm’s reach."
"Heart Sword, slash!"
In the next moment, Lu Changsheng’s mind trembled violently.
The Jade Heart Sword instantly shot forth.
Not just one strike—ten consecutive strikes were unleashed, ferociously piercing into Xu Haotian’s spirit.
Xu Haotian’s spirit shook violently.
Yet, within Xu Haotian’s mind, an ancient and unadorned Bronze Bell appeared.
The Heart Sword struck the spirit, causing the previously turbulent spiritual waves to calm rapidly due to the reverberation of the bell’s sound.
"Hmm... Is this a Spirit Secret Treasure?"
Lu Changsheng’s heart stirred, suddenly realizing something.
Spirit Secret Treasure!
Only Spirit Secret Treasures could reside within the spirit.
But Spirit Secret Treasures are exceedingly rare.
Unbelievably, Xu Haotian possessed one.
This Spirit Secret Treasure wasn’t specifically for defense but for restoration.
Dispersed spirits could instantly recover.
Hence, Lu Changsheng’s Heart Sword posed no real threat to Xu Haotian.
Unless he could annihilate Xu Haotian’s spirit in an instant, even if his Heart Sword shattered Xu Haotian’s spirit entirely, under the support of the Spirit Secret Treasure, Xu Haotian’s spirit would recover instantly.
However, while Xu Haotian’s spirit could recuperate, the pain from the spirit being slashed apart by the Heart Sword remained.
Xu Haotian, resolute in his will, sneered coldly. "You think a Spiritual Secret Technique can defeat me? Long Yun fell to your Spiritual Secret Technique, but how could I come unprepared?"
Xu Haotian knew very well that Lu Changsheng’s edge lay in his Spiritual Secret Technique.
Once the Spiritual Secret Technique failed, half of Lu Changsheng’s strength would diminish.
It posed no significant threat.
Xu Haotian’s face twisted.
In the distortion, there seemed to be traces of excitement.
In the next instant, Xu Haotian’s mind domain descended.
And among them, one domain stood out most strikingly.
It was a Four-in-One Domain!
Just moments ago, Lu Guan had been defeated by Xu Haotian’s Four-in-One Domain.
Coupled with his Two-in-One Domain, Xu Haotian’s current prowess could rival a top-tier Divine Treasure with fifty layers of Ordinary Domain!
Lu Changsheng took a deep breath.
Lu Changsheng’s mind trembled madly.
At the same time, within Lu Changsheng’s mind, spanning fifteen li, one domain after another descended.
Sword Domain, Sword Domain, Slaughter Domain!
These were three Ordinary Domains.
Two-in-One Starry Sky Waterfall Domain! The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the NovᴇlFirᴇ(.)nᴇt
Two-in-One Water Tornado Domain!
Two fusion domains stacked together, equating to twenty layers of domains.
But, these domains alone were far from sufficient compared to Xu Haotian’s overwhelming and terrifying Four-in-One Domain.
Still, this was only the beginning.
Lu Changsheng’s mind trembled even more violently.
Another five domains manifested.
Five Elements Water Domain, Five Elements Fire Domain, Five Elements Earth Domain, Five Elements Wood Domain, Five Elements Gold Domain!
These were the Five Elements Domains!
"Five Elements Domains, fuse!"
In the next moment, an astonishing sight unfolded before everyone’s eyes.
The Five Elements Domains swiftly merged together.
In the blink of an eye, the five domains fused into one.
At this moment, as the Five Elements Domain formed, everyone could sense its terrifying aura emanating powerfully.
