Lu Xuan’s arrival attracted everyone’s present.

“Who’s this kid?”

“This is preposterous! Where did the kid come from?”

“Is he just some tourist who happened to be around?”

Everyone murmured among themselves, and no one knew who Lu Xuan was. He just looked too young. He wore a t-shirt, overalls, and a pair of white shoes, and the getup made him look little different from contemporary college students.

If he were to take out his phone and record something to be uploaded to TikTok, he would have looked the part even more.

Lu Xuan ignored the gaze from the people all around him. He came straight to the gate at the foot of the mountain and shouted right away, “Qiu Zhen, come out and meet your doom!”

He sounded plain when he said that, yet the might from the voice was so formidable that all within earshot felt like their brains were going to explode.

“One hell of a formidable one, indeed.”

Everyone came to the same conclusion right there and then.

Even the slowest, dumbest of the lot realized right that the young man before them was the terrifying being who was said to have wiped out the entire expeditionary force from the Soul-snatcher Sect. That legendary being was none other than that young man who looked like he was out for a stroll.

How can he be so young?

That was the first thought that came to the minds of many. He looked too outlandishly young for someone of that caliber.

Yet, it was indeed him who had wiped out every single fighter the sect fielded back in Min Province. If it had not been for what Lu Xuan shouted, no one would have believed that he was that man.

Some would have even thought the notion to be little more than a joke.

Lu Xuan did not look like someone of such caliber at all, no matter how one looked at it.

The mountain remained silent. It appeared as if there was no one in there. Clouds and mists circled around the mountain, blocking everyone’s view.

Lu Xuan plunged into the mist at the very next second.

“Sh*t! He’s done for now. All those clouds and mist are no joke. It’s the formation laid out by the sect to protect their base. Even a National Guardian would end up trapped if they venture inside just like that.”

Despite having been forced to run to the southwest like some dog by all types of sects and clans from all over the Middle Land, they were a sect with a proper lineage, and some of their ancestors left behind such a formation as a measure to guard their base.

The formation, which was essentially a maze, prevented the sect, which had been remnants of a fallen force, from being wiped out altogether by the force from the southwest.

The true form of the mountain was quickly revealed to Lu Xuan.

“What is happening?” many asked, feeling shocked.

They quickly turned their gaze at the man who was plucking away at the foundations that kept the maze working.

The man doing so was none other than Lu Xuan.

“Wait, did he just break the maze?” Many were stunned as they watched on. The maze was what the sect had relied on to avert a great many disasters that would have killed them all before rising to where they were in the present day.

There had been armies trying to take the mountain, but the army quickly lost their way once they got inside, losing themselves in the maze and eventually starving to death in there.

Lu Xuan, on the other hand, discovered the key points holding the maze together after venturing inside for mere moments. He went on to break the maze. One could only imagine the level of shock the spectators were going through when they saw that.

Lu Xuan had his back facing the crowd below as his eyes glittered with a golden sheen. It was an effect of his born taoism aptitude, which was also one of the godly abilities inherent within such a constitution.

The ability was named the Delusion-breaker Eyes.

No illusions or falsehood could escape the gaze of those eyes. The maze was only useful for messing up mental states of common folks, but to someone who possessed the Delusion-breaker Eyes like Lu Xuan, he was able to see through all secrets with just a single look.

However, Lu Xuan turned the ability off as soon as he was done, as using such an ability came with a huge cost in Spiritual Qi, and he was actually just trying things out.

When he reached the very pinnacle of his cultivation, those eyes had allowed him to peer into the heavens and the hell alike. Few things had been able to escape the scrutiny from those eyes.

Seeing through such illusions was but the basic ability of the Delusion-breaker Eyes. New functions would have been unlocked as Lu Xuan’s powers progressed.

It was something extremely surreal.

After Lu Xuan saw through the maze, his knowledge and intuition regarding such formations allowed him to easily break one such simple maze.

The entire peak was revealed before the eyes of the crowd below as soon as the maze was broken.

A stone path led to the peak, and the training ground of the disciples of the sect was found midway up the mountain. The place had developed into a small town throughout the years.

That was where the common disciples of the sect were residing.

Everyone below saw one lavish hall after another sitting atop the peak, which was where the higher-ups of the sect took up residence.

However, everyone almost choked at the sight they saw midway up the mountain. That was because they saw people lying all over the place, but those people were all lined up neatly on the ground like they were some kind of crop.

All of them looked dazed and had apparently lost all consciousness.

Many were able to see bugs eating away at those people’s bodies.

It became apparent that those people were made into vessels for breeding Gu Curse bugs.

Most cultivators found in the southwest were brutal, decisive people, and yet even they had done something like that—planting people on the ground like crop for feeding bugs.

It was an act that treated people like things. The act was considered so harrowing that even the cultivators of the southwest, who were all hardened people, felt a chill run down their spines when they saw that. All of them broke out in cold sweat.

“Those damned animals!” Yun Feiying, who peered in using his binoculars, cursed beneath his breath in seething anger.

He knew very well that the Soul-snatcher Sect had never done any good things for as long as they existed, that all they had done was evil. Files documenting the sect’s deeds had been enough to fill several rooms.

But then again, no amount of data and information listed on paper would be as shocking as seeing these acts with his own eyes.

There were at least over 1,000 people packed tightly together being used as vessels for breeding these bugs.

All the other fighters present from the Special Task Force were burning in righteous anger, getting very eager to tear every single member from the sect to shreds.

“Regardless of how today turns out. We won’t allow anyone from the sect to live. None of them deserve anything less than death!” Yun Feiying shouted with burning wrath.

All the others from the Special Task Force around him nodded. They had never been so united before.

Lu Xuan, who had seen it all, was the only one who remained unmoved. What he had seen in his past life was ten to 20 times more harrowing than what was before him.

But then again, that did not mean his killing intent subsided in any way; such intent burned brighter instead.

“No one from the Soul-snatcher Sect shall escape today!” Lu Xuan commented coldly.

He then charged to the town midway up the mountain when he was done speaking.
