The Turbid World Eye Lotus blossomed, its petals scattering one after another. Sitting cross-legged in the middle of the flower was an infant no taller than a foot. The infant held his fingers in an orchid-finger mudra, changing the incantations in his hands. The black lotus petals sliced wildly toward Lu Xiaotian like blades, carving streaks of edge-light through the void. Interweaving into a great net, they swept toward Lu Xiaotian.
An astonishing power of decay emanated from the net. Lu Xiaotian felt the power of the laws lingering around him rapidly decay and erode.
Lu Xiaotian struck out with his halberd several times in succession, but every halberd-mark he produced was corroded away.
Even the power of the dragon totem was unable to withstand his opponent? Lu Xiaotian was utterly shocked. He had fought quite a few Golden Immortal-level experts, yet had never encountered such a bizarre situation. With only this slight delay, the black net had already descended completely, directly wrapping Lu Xiaotian within it and tightening without end.
"I thought you had all sorts of abilities, but you're merely so-so. Your external methods are indeed formidable, but in the end, they weren't cultivated by you yourself. Though this shortcut still gives you decent battle prowess and is enough to deal with the vast majority of Golden Immortal-level experts, you happened to run into your nemesis in my Turbid World Eye Lotus. Once my Turbid World Eye Lotus reaches great completion, it can defile everything in the world. Although it is still far from completion, the gap between you and this strange dragon-clan power of yours is a fatal flaw. If you had focused all your strength on protecting yourself, that might have been fine, but you actually tried to attack me proactively. That was simply courting death."
