Chapter 623: Chapter 400: This Is the Most Terrifying Old Man I’ve Ever Seen in My Life!

Deduction!

Host: Red Dust Immortal Lu Xuan (Fifth Life)

Realm: Embracing Elixir Grandmaster (Mid-stage)

Cultivation Technique: Ten Thousand Valleys Returning Flow Fist 7/9

Points: 35090

In the blink of an eye, the deduction concluded with a whisper, without earth-shattering roars or otherworldly phenomena filling the sky.

Only a strand of awe-inspiring aura clung to the air, making the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi tremble, silently dissipating.

The Ten Thousand Valleys Returning Flow Fist, which had previously been halted at the pinnacle of the sixth level, now felt as though its meridians were smoothly opened, and all obstructions suddenly vanished.

Lu Xuan felt as though every aperture in his body was being soaked in warm water.

The fist intent rose from the Dantian, flowing through the meridians to the limbs without a trace of hindrance.

Ten Thousand Valleys Returning Flow Fist, Seventh Layer!!! Breakthrough!!!

At this moment, upon observing Lu Xuan, the once slightly fierce momentum of his fist now embodied a gentle and silent depth.

It seemed to contain the majestic scenery of countless peaks competing and countless streams merging into the sea.

With a slight movement of his fingers, he could stir the weak airflow around him, forming an indiscernible silhouette of a fist.

Now, with just one punch from Lu Xuan, it seemed to have the momentum of ten thousand valleys thundering, enough to shatter mountains and crack stones.

Without a doubt, compared to before, each move of the seventh layer Ten Thousand Valleys Returning Flow Fist had an added spiritual charm compared to the previous six layers.

This was truly integrated with the "mountains and rivers’ aura" between Heaven and Earth.

Even while standing still, Lu Xuan seemed to harbor an endless fist force within him.

With just a slight activation, he could unleash a force capable of shaking mountains and rivers.

The barrier of the Embracing Elixir Realm quietly shattered in Lu Xuan’s mind, and the threshold of the mid-stage Embracing Elixir Realm was completely broken through.

There were no intense phenomena of surging blood energy, nor the sound of bones being reshaped.

Only his previously aging body seemed to be frozen in time.

His sagging skin did not tighten with the breakthrough in realm, and his greying temples did not revert to completely black, solidly remaining in the form of a sixty-year-old man.

The only change on Lu Xuan’s ridge-ridden face was his increasingly bright eyes, as though hiding countless rivers and mountains.

Although he appeared unchanged on the outside, a complete metamorphosis had occurred within him.

With every slight heartbeat, more purer blood energy than ever surged forth, flowing through the meridians to the limbs.

Feeling the harmonious and immense power within his body, a glimmer of understanding flickered in Lu Xuan’s eyes.

After reaching the mid-stage Embracing Elixir Realm, the influence was not on reversing appearance but on refining and sublimating the essence of life, truly integrating strength and vitality into oneself.

Achieving the realm of "an aged body but undiminished spirit, a deteriorating form but purer vigor."

"Burst!"

A muffled explosion erupted on the vast expanse of yellow sand as Lu Xuan’s feet landed, the scorching grains forcefully pressed down by an immense power.

Centered at his toes, a ring-shaped wave of sand surged outward, spreading over ten meters before slowly settling.

Meanwhile, Lu Xuan’s body had long since shot into the air like an arrow, without a hint of obstruction.

His entire being transformed into a blurred afterimage, moving at such speed that even the blazing sun above could not cast his moving shadow on the yellow sands.

The air along the way was forcibly torn, emitting a piercing whistle.

A terrifying storm followed closely, stirring up clouds of yellow sand, leaving a trail of an earthy-yellow gas strip hundreds of meters long behind Lu Xuan.

The yellow sand beneath the scorching sun was already unbearably hot; now, engulfed by this storm, it carried a scorching temperature.

Even the low-lying sand hogs in the distance were blown to the ground, as if about to be uprooted.

In the blink of an eye, the afterimage had crossed a thousand meters and landed steadily at the top of a distant sand dune.

But it wasn’t over yet.

On the dune, Lu Xuan didn’t even raise his head, merely tapping lightly on the boiling sand with his foot.

Another low boom sounded, sending sand scattering, with tiny stones propelled by the force as if embedded into distant sand piles like bullets.

In the next second, the afterimage once again tore through the scorching air like teleportation.

This time with even more ferocious speed, the trailing storm became even more violent, disturbing the hot currents in the high sky.

Within another breath, Lu Xuan had traversed a thousand meters of yellow sand, landing back at the original spot as if he had never left.

Only the deep footprints beneath his feet, the still-settling sand mist around him, and the lingering scorching whistle of the wind in the air.

It proved the incredible movement he accomplished was no illusion.

Such speed had long surpassed the human physiological limits.

Resembling a small superhuman, showing no sign of the speed ceiling humans should have.

According to the Red-clothed Taoist, the current era had long entered the Realm of the End of the Dharma.

Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi gradually withered, the mystical methods of the past mostly lost, along with those extraordinary phenomena becoming increasingly rare.

Just like those three female students from Yingnan University, clearly confirmed dead yet unexpectedly transformed into an eerie resurrected state days later.

This kind of death-defying anomaly might have had traces in the qi-abundant ancient times.

But in today’s End of Dharma Era, it was a rare occurrence seen only once in a hundred years.

Even the victims who were personally ended by the Red-clothed Taoist, their grievance turned into life-claiming ghostly shadows after death, he never showed any mercy.

Whenever a victim became a ghostly shadow, the Red-clothed Taoist used even harsher means to thoroughly disperse those haunting shadows, leaving no possibility for reincarnation.

His complete eradication was not out of fear of vengeful spirits, the core purpose had always been to prevent the matter from escalating.
