No History? Then Make History

"This Young Master Lu is a formidable opponent." Bai Ming and the others looked solemn as they stared at Young Master Lu, who was making a big splash on the arena, and became wary.

"Not easy to deal with." Yan Tianzhi also felt the pressure from Young Master Lu, not only from Young Master Lu himself, but also from the Heavenly Court Sect.

The attitudes of the Five Great Immortal Sects and the imperial court are enough to demonstrate just how powerful the Heavenly Court Sect is.

Lan Ting looked puzzled; she felt that this young master Lu's style was very similar to someone she knew.

Lu Yang's opponents were two people: Mo Wenli, a True Disciple of the first-class sect Thunderfire Sect, and Su Mo, a rogue Rogue Cultivator known as an unparalleled genius. They broke out in a cold sweat as they watched Lu Yang's relaxed and carefree demeanor.

"Don't hold back, attack together!" Su Mo said in a deep voice, directing Mo Wenli. With his pride, joining forces would be a disgrace, but the other party was the young leader of the Heavenly Court Sect, Lu. If he wanted to win this round, he had to swallow his pride.

Mo Wenli frowned. What right did this guy, touted as a prodigy by a rogue Rogue Cultivator, have to order him around?

"If you want to win, listen to me!" Su Mo frowned, feeling that this junior was truly ungrateful, and his presence commanded respect even without anger.

Mo Wenli shuddered, startled by Su Mo.

He seemed to see his master's image in Su Mo.

"You'd better have a plan." Mo Wenli reluctantly accepted Su Mo's command.

Seeing that Mo Wenli knew when to advance and retreat, Su Mo's expression softened slightly, and he transmitted his voice, saying, "The art of war says, 'Delay leads to unforeseen changes; let's fight quickly and decisively.'"

"Your Thunder Method should have reached a high level of proficiency. If Swordsmanship is the primary method of attack, then Thunder Method is the secondary one. I will first use the power of my Golden Core to restrain the opponent while you gather your strength from behind. Once you have gathered your strength, attack the opponent with all your might!"

"Alright, but are you sure your Golden Core can hold the opponent back?"

Su Mo did not answer. He had scattered his cultivation and started over. The Devouring Golden Core he had painstakingly condensed could devour the spiritual power of his opponents. Anyone would panic for a moment in such a situation.

In battles at the Golden Core stage, a moment of panic can resolve the conflict.

Su Mo's legs spurred straight, like an arrow, and he rushed towards Young Master Lu in a flash. The speed he displayed already surpassed that of Mo Wenli!

As soon as they clashed, Su Mo sensed how formidable Young Master Lu was. His opponent was experienced in combat and had an extremely strong ability to adapt. It was wishful thinking to try to gain the upper hand based on experience alone.

How could the opponent have such rich combat experience? It doesn't seem like it was honed by fighting against opponents of the same level, but rather by fighting against people of a higher level, and not just one person.

Yes, the opponent is the young leader of the Heavenly Court Sect. He must have been trained by a master to accumulate such terrifying combat experience.

But so what? My goal is to keep them in check, and that's enough!

"Destroy!"

Su Mo silently chanted in his heart, summoned his Golden Core, and devoured Golden Core, spinning wildly. Every time he made physical contact with Young Master Lu, he could plunder the spiritual power in his body.

This tactic is always effective.

Unexpectedly, just as he was circulating his Golden Core, he saw Young Master Lu slightly open his mouth, seemingly about to do something.

Su Mo quickly revealed the answer: he was absorbing the other party's spiritual power, and the other party was also absorbing his spiritual power, reaching a delicate balance between the two!

How is that possible!

Could it be that the other party also devoured Golden Core?!

Su Mo gritted his teeth. Things had come to this point, and he couldn't care less about anything else. He felt the immense power of lightning behind him, which was the result of Mo Wenli's Thunder Method being fully accumulated!

"Get out of the way!"

Mo Wenli gritted his teeth. The power of the lightning was too heavy; he was already struggling just to support it, and his arms were trembling.

Su Mo hurriedly dodged, and a powerful bolt of lightning exploded behind him, scattering light, causing silver snakes to dance wildly, and surging energy.

Boom!

The silver serpent and lightning engulfed Young Master Lu.

Before Su Mo and Mo Wenli could even rejoice, they heard a hissing sound, and a flash of sword light cleaved the lightning bolt in two.

The lightning bolt exploded, and a figure carrying a sword emerged from the blast, relaxed and at ease.

"The power is not bad, but it's a pity that the power is too scattered. If it could be concentrated into one point, I'm afraid I would suffer a bit." Young Master Lu casually commented on Mo Wenli's Thunder Method.

This Young Master Lu is the number one sword cultivator in terms of offensive prowess!

Just as Mo Wenli was stunned, Su Mo reacted first and dodged sharply. There was no time to be stunned on the battlefield!

He was about to speak up to remind Mo Wenli when another flash of sword light appeared, and Mo Wenli had already landed off the stage.

"Take care of one first."

The sword tip grazed the stone-dusted arena, making irregular sounds that sent chills down Su Mo's spine.

Su Mo quickly became furious. As a great cultivator who had scattered his cultivation and was rebuilding his strength, with two thousand years of cultivation experience, he was destined to reach even greater heights. How could he be prey to be slaughtered at will?

He wanted the other party to know just how terrifying a powerful cultivator who had lost his cultivation and was rebuilding his strength could be when he became ruthless!

"The victor belongs to the Heavenly Court."

The referee announces the result of the match.

On the arena, Young Master Lu sheathed his sword, his posture upright and extremely elegant. He looked up at the judges' panel and asked, "Well, do I now qualify to continue the competition?"

"As the Sect Master says, you are free to continue participating in the competition."

"However, Sect Master have a question."

"Sect Master Lu, please ask."

"Just now, Su Mo used the Devouring Golden Core to absorb your spiritual power, and you were also absorbing his spiritual power. Could it be that you used the most ancient and original of the Taotie clan's innate divine Divine Ability —the Devouring Heaven and Earth technique?"

Young Master Lu looked at Sect Master Lu in surprise, not expecting to be recognized by the other party.

"Sect Master Lu has excellent judgment."

"What's the difference between the oldest Devouring Heaven and Earth and the current Devouring Heaven and Earth?" Qiu Jinan asked at just the right moment.

Young Master Lu did not answer; he awaited Sect Master's reply.

Sect Master Lu said in a deep voice that could be heard by everyone present, "You should know that I have also cultivated the Devouring Heaven and Earth technique. During my studies, I discovered a secret of the Taotie clan."

"In High Antiquity times, the Taotie clan was extremely ferocious. While it is the instinct of Demon Beast to feed on living beings, the Taotie clan was different. They never devoured living beings; instead, they absorbed the spiritual energy of the world and fed on the earth and stars. Therefore, they were known as the ferocious beasts of heaven and earth!"

"How does one devour spiritual energy and the earth? It relies on the most ancient method of 'devouring heaven and earth'!"

"The original Devouring Heaven and Earth was too ferocious and was attacked by various races. Under pressure, the Taotie clan changed Devouring Heaven and Earth to its current form. Although it is said to devour everything, its power is actually much less than before!"

Sect Master Lu continued, "Even among the current Taotie Clan, no one possesses the ancient skill of Devouring Heaven and Earth. I never imagined that Young Master Lu would use such a move. It seems the legends are true; the Heavenly Court truly was the greatest power in High Antiquity."

Upon hearing this, the crowd below gasped in astonishment, never expecting that the Taotie clan possessed such a secret.

In the spiritual space, the Immortal Fairy excitedly wiggled her little feet, her pink, pearl-like toes twitching.

"How was it? How was my performance?"

"Okay, that's the feeling!"
