Fang Zhengzhi and Yan Xiu knew this, but Lu Yusheng did not think they knew. As such, Lu Yusheng waited for Fang Zhengzhi's arrogance to consume himself and attack.
Then...
Fang Zhengzhi really attacked.
Everything went according to Lu Yusheng's plan. Furthermore, Yan Xiu also attacked.
A bright red sun and silver moon appeared instantly in the air. They lit up the entire area, a ray of red and white light forming strange shapes in the air.
Then, the red ray of light and silver ray of light intersected each other, forming a cross as they crashed towards Lu Yusheng.
The aura from this attack was powerful as it cut through the air.
Lu Yusheng sneered.
This was a smile of disdain and condescension.
If this was a day ago, seeing this would have shocked him. This meant that his opponent was at the peak of the Star Conglomerate State
Furthermore...
This was a combined attack by two pinnacle Star Conglomerate cultivators.
More importantly, they attacked using the same techniques, so the attacks buffed each other up as they flew towards Lu Yusheng.
The meeting of the two rays of light resulted in a large burst of energy.
However, change was a part of life.
A youth's feelings for a girl can change in a matter of days and the difference between a cultivation state was stark. Even though the difference was not enough for Lu Yusheng to smash his opponents, he could easily parry their attacks.
Lu Yusheng had no intention of dodging away. He did not even blink.
He simply waved his hand in front of him. Then, hundred of flowers bloomed, their aroma filling up the entire area, each one blossoming in the field.
It was a sea of flowers.
When the light rays impacted the petals of flowers, the flower shattered in a bloom of light. However, there were so many flowers!
Countless petals flew towards the oncoming rays of light...
Almost like moths to a flame, they swarmed the two rays of light. However, the conclusion was slightly different, the countless petals had consumed the attacks completely.
Lu Yusheng chuckled happily. He loved the feeling of being in control. Of course, he was also looking forward to seeing the awe in Fang Zhengzhi's and Yan Xiu's eyes when everything died down. He had suffered the same thing yesterday.
As such...
In fact, he even thought that Fang Zhengzhi's awe would be ten times, or even a thousand times more...
However, his smile did not last long. This time, the person with their eyes widened was still him. When the attacks calmed down, Fang Zhengzhi and Yan Xiu were nowhere to be seen.
They disappeared almost as quickly as they appeared.
The two of them basically vanished.
The red sun and silver moon in the sky also disappeared.
Everything returned to normal. A light breeze continued to blow, the water beneath the stone bridge continued to flow...
Lu Yusheng felt a sharp pain on his face, almost as if he had been cut by a knife. He unconsciously raised his hand to touch his face and realized that there was a shallow wound.
He did not know if this was damage from the indiscriminate power of the flowers, or some residual energy from the attack.
I clearly blocked the attack, why am I still injured?
Why is a shallow wound... this painful?
Lu Yusheng looked at the youths next to him.
Those youths stared wide eyed in the direction where Fang Zhengzhi and Yan Xiu had disappeared. They were all extremely awed. Furthermore, none of them looked at Lu Yusheng.
"Piak!" Lu Yusheng raised his hand and slapped the youth closest to him.
It was crisp and resounding.
This slap also helped distract him from the pain in his face.
"What are you all stoning here for? Chase!"
The youths reacted instantly and ran towards a door at the side of the courtyard. However, they still did not understand why Fang Zhengzhi and Yan Xiu would run.
Furthermore, they had run without hesitation.
How unheroic?
Neither the youths not Lu Yusheng understood why they had run.
The reason was simple. Lu Yusheng was born from a powerful family and was imparted with the corresponding values. One of those values was to meet every challenge head on.
Retreating was an option, but one had to lose the battle first.
Who would retreat upon contact?
How unreasonable!
The youths with Lu Yusheng gave chase, leaving him to stand alone in his original position. All of a sudden, the pain came back. He could only distract himself from the pain temporarily.
Fang Zhengzhi had actually ran. To be more accurate, Yan Xiu had initiated the retreat. He had dragged Fang Zhengzhi along as he ran away.
"He seems quite powerful?"
"He is, even after we combined powers, we only managed to scratch him!"
"Is this the power of Heavenly Reflection?" Fang Zhengzhi was slightly confused, Why would the petals take to the air, and shatter in bursts of light?
"Mm, once you're in the Heavenly Reflection State, your pocket dimension can link up with the life outside. This link will give you the ability to move the things around you." Yan Xiu knew that Fang Zhengzhi had never entered the Hall of Dao, so he was not surprised by the question.
"Is it just like your Mountain and River location in your Heaven and Earth Fan?"
"There are some differences. The fan creates and set up the territory according to a fixed set of parameters. When you're in the Heavenly Reflection State, only the portions of Dao of All Creations that you have understood will link up with the outside world. Lu Yusheng probably has the flower petal Dao of All Creation in his pocket dimension."
"Does that mean that if he is out of the sea of flowers, he can't mop even the life around him?"
"He just can't move the flower petals. If his pocket dimension has trees, and there are trees in the surrounding area, then he can move trees. The same logic applies to grass, water, stones. As long as they exist in his pocket dimension, he can move them."
"So powerful? Then, how do we defeat him?"
"The best way is to find a place where there's nothing for his pocket dimension to link up with, or a place with little to link."
"And if we can't find such a place?"
"Then we have to rely on our wit!'
Fang Zhengzhi nodded his agreement. Even though Yan Xiu said use wit, that meant that if they went head to head, both sides would be seriously injured. The difference between states was really great.
It was no wonder many did not believe that he stood a chance to defeat Chi Guyan in two years time.
After all, the difference between their abilities was too great.
In eight years, through his own discovery and experimentation, Fang Zhengzhi managed to go from Access Dao to Divine Seal, then to the Conglomerate Star state, and finally to the peak of the Conglomerate Star state.
It wasn't that he was not hardworking.
He simply did not know how to progress to the next states.
As such, he could only stop at the Conglomerate Star, collecting stars as he went along, understanding the Dao of All Creation for each life form. This gave his pocket dimension hundreds of 'stars'.
...
After going through the spring garden, they were faced with a forest. Trees towered over them and there was no rain or warmth of spring.
There was only the scorching sun and furnace like heat.
"It feels like we've just entered summer?" Fang Zhengzhi exclaimed as he felt the temperature rise.
"Every parallel dimension is a complete world. As such, they will naturally have the four seasons!" Yan Xiu looked at the forest in front of him, his tone heavy.
"Indeed." Yan Xiu did not seem to think that Fang Zhengzhi's comment was out of place. He just nodded coldly in agreement.
Then, they looked at each other before entering the forest.
In front of them, they could hear the deep, guttural growls of beasts and the sharp chirps of birds...
...
"Ah!"
"Aiyo..."
The pursuing youths immediately screamed as they passed through the side door. The reason was simple, they had stepped on nails.
The nails were dropped accidentally by Fang Zhengzhi. They were extremely handy and portable. He even placed a few hooks at the tip.
They allowed the nails to stick to human flesh.
Fang Zhengzhi had always kept some with him for emergencies.
Lu Yusheng saw this scene as he walked through the side door. He was furious, You all injured yourself before you even caught the person?
No matter what, the people with him were all at least Conglomerate Star powers!
He had hoped that they would act like the powers they were.
Can't you spot something as bright as nails?
Lu Yusheng was infuriated and decided to teach these people a lesson.
Then, in the moment he stepped out, he felt a sharp pain at the base of his foot. When he raised it to take a look, he saw a green nail lodged at the base of his foot.
"Ah... f*ck! He actually painted the nails green and threw them in the grass!" Lu Yusheng screamed, his voice piercing through the woods and into the heavens.
...
Yan Xiu coincidentally heard this voice. He immediately turned to look at Fang Zhengzhi suspiciously.
"Was that Lu Yusheng's voice?"
"Probably!"
"Did something charge into the Spring Garden?" Yan Xiu guessed as he felt the beasts around them.
"I think he probably stepped on a nail by accident!" Fang Zhengzhi looked towards the Spring Garden and smiled.
"Nails?" Yan Xiu looked at Fang Zhengzhi. It was natural for the Spring Garden to have flowers and greenery, but why would it have nails?
"Mm, we were in a hurry to leave just now, so I dropped some nails at the doorstep..." Fang Zhengzhi retrieved a bag as he spoke. Inside the bag were countless nails in various colors- green, yellow, black, white...
