Being on the bottom, ordinary people may have not cared much about this. Even if the secluded sects were to all reappear onto Earth, they would be nothing more than another set of rulers over them.
It would not have made any difference!
It was difficult for cultivators, especially the top leveled ones whose cultivation had reached the Divine Treasure Realm by using their own strength; they felt a great amount of pressure bearing down upon them.
This terrible pressure felt like black clouds bearing down on a city, threatening to overwhelm it!
Lu Xuan seemed capable of killing cultivators in the Divine Treasure Realm with ease as if he was simply killing a dog.
Despite that, the cultivators in the Divine Treasure Realm remained the strongest people on Earth today. People in this realm could basically be regarded as leaders; it would not have been that difficult for them to easily overthrow the regime of a small country.
The extremely strong experts in the second tier of the Divine Treasure Realm possessed even more incredible power. They could have been on equal footing with the leaders of the big countries.
People believed that these experts earned their reputation themselves by fighting, gradually establishing their status within the world.
However, if they waited for the secluded sects to all reappear, then their present status would probably fall to the same level as ordinary people.
Would the secluded sects even take people like Huang Yuanfeng seriously?
They would probably be killed whenever the secluded sects wanted them dead.
Then there was also the supreme existence of Lu Xuan, who claimed to be the number one expert in the world. The experts in the secluded holy land likely thought he was nothing to them.
Although Lu Xuan was strong and his talent was earth-shattering, he had not spent enough time cultivating.
Many people never thought about how to bridge the gap because they did not have enough time to do so.
While the shackles of the world on earth had suppressed their growth rate, it had also protected them.
Had it not been for this layer of shackles, the secluded sects would probably have reappeared again a long time ago. In that case, people would never have had a chance to cultivate to this level.
Because this layer of shackles limited their growth while simultaneously protecting time, they all felt uncertain about the situation.
“Hahahahahaha! Huang Yuanfeng, do you think I do not know about the current situation in the secluded holy land? You still want to lie to me?” Lu Xuan laughed. Huang Yuefeng’s words could deceive others, but he could not lie to Lu Xuan.
The secluded sects may have been very powerful, but they were not as scary as Huang Yuanfeng had described them.
It was true that there were countless geniuses in the secluded sects, but there were far more geniuses that had reappeared on the whole earth.
There were not many people in the secluded holy land; the total number of such people may not have even reached 10 million.
With more than seven billion people on the whole earth, however, hundreds of millions of people in Huaxia alone had embarked on the road of cultivation. There were at least 10 or even 20 times more geniuses that had emerged from the road of cultivation than those from the secluded holy land.
Currently, the secluded holy land remained above everyone else; it seemed that they could take down anyone and anything. This was only because they had cultivated for a longer time and had a deeper heritage.
If the earth was given more time to develop, it would not be a problem to defeat the so-called secluded holy land.
Not only would they beat them, but they would also completely crush them in the process!
If that were the case, the secluded holy land would have had no chances of winning!
They could only choose to obediently join the people on Earth.
This was something that Lu Xuan had been promoting. The secluded holy land in his previous life had been above the rest, thanks to the help of the planet’s various resources.
They were so powerful that after the revival of spirit qi, they grew much faster using the planet’s resources. The people originally on Earth were nothing to them.
There had always been two kinds of geniuses. One was the geniuses coming from the secluded holy land, and the other was those on Earth. The former had all kinds of opportunities and strength to crush the latter.
Even then, there were so many geniuses on earth. Unless the entire earth was wiped out, people would eventually take over.
After hundreds of years, it was like what Lu Xuan had expected during his previous life. A group of strong experts from Earth were finally able to reach the peak of their power; they could compete with the secluded holy land.
This caused the world to be divided into two parts.
Even so, that was many years later. The power of the earth did not grow much while it was suppressed by the secluded holy land.
The secluded holy land itself could not grow stronger as quickly as the countless geniuses on earth. Thus, each of the secluded sects in the secluded holy land had been tacitly suppressing the growth of geniuses on earth.
As a result, the strength of the earth’s cultivators could not make much progress for a long time until they received help from powerful cultivators from the outer universe.
When that occurred, the earth had suffered great losses. Nobody knew how many people were slaughtered during such an extremely dark and turbulent time while Lu Xuan and the others fought a bloody battle.
Although he had stood out and even counterattacked the outer universe, the entire planet was ultimately devastated. Nobody knew how many potentially brilliant geniuses were killed by cultivators who were much stronger than them.
The scene could play out so vividly in his mind as if it was happening right before his eyes.
In his previous life, he had finally become one of the strongest people in the world. Although he could have counter-attacked, it was mainly because he had lived through such a dark and turbulent era. Nobody knew how many times he had narrowly escaped death, or how many times he felt alive again.
In the end, he was able to become the Celestial Lord!
After having already experienced such a thing once, however, he absolutely did not want to go through it again.
He had lost so much during that dark and turbulent era!
This was why with the chance to start all over again, he absolutely did not want to be placed in that situation again!
It did not matter if his plan was to break the plan of the Myriad Demon Valley, promote the cultivation for everyone, or plan against the secluded holy land. It was all for the coming terrible dark era of upheaval.
Before facing such an era of turmoil, the strength of the whole planet could be increased a little. That meant they could face fewer catastrophes in the future.
All those who dared to stand in Lu Xuan’s way and prevent him from increasing the strength of the cultivation world on earth were his enemies.
As his enemy, the only possible outcome for them was to be killed by him!
“How many geniuses can there be in your secluded sects?” Lu Xuan gave a cold smile.
At that moment, Huang Yuanfeng looked a little crazy with reddened eyes. He said, “You’re so heartless and evil, Lu Xuan. No wonder Brother Yan wants you dead!”
As soon as his voice fell, Lu Xuan slashed out a sword light and decapitated him on the spot.
Huang Yuanfeng, who was seriously injured, did not even have time to react before he died.
“Yan Han? If he dares to approach me, he will also die!”
