Global Awakening: I'm the Only One Ready

Chapter 546. The Starfield Lord’s Shock, a Battle Where Everything Is at Risk

Even if Lu Yuan’s name had not shaken the entire universe, nearly every existence whose strength is of a certain realm would have heard of his name.

Not long ago, the Milky Way Starfield was the center of attention of the entire universe, the one place everyone had their eyes on.

Every starfield clans had sent people there in the hope of acquiring some boons. But unfortunately, reality went contrary to their wishes.

Everyone failed. They failed to conquer that very planet where people had all been ordinary and just awakened.

Even when they had sent powerful cultivators over, occupation was still to no avail.

And it all happened for a very simple reason—the presence of a man named Lu Yuan in the Milky Way Starfield.

No one knew how he cultivated but in a very short span of time—a mere few years—he had advanced to a terrifyingly strong level.

Even some veteran monsters were no match for him. When news of this spread through the cosmos, few believed it. They found it incredulous and overly exaggerated.

He was just a junior and the Milky Way Starfield had just gone through the Awakening. How long had it been since the start of the Awakening? And yet, word was spreading that not even another major starfield clan could conquer them?

Yes, the Milky Way Starfield had the Separation of Heaven and Earth in its earlier days, but that only offered protection to a certain extent. It could not really stop the invaders.

So, no one believed. They just continued to send people there, again and again, until eventually, even Immortals descended.

Finally, after the Eternals and the Ji Clan both suffered greatly in the Milky Way Starfield, or more precisely, after they suffered greatly at Lu Yuan’s hands, everyone then eventually believed that the Milky Way Starfield could not be conquered.

And all of this was because of one man, Lu Yuan. Many Rankers, Holy Sons included, had died at his hands.

In particular, this name left a deep, lasting impression on the Celestials as they were the first major starfield clan to come into contact with Lu Yuan.

Or to put it in another way, they were also the first major clan to suffer a loss at Lu Yuan’s hands.

So now, when one of them recognized the young man before them was Lu Yuan, every Celestial was shocked and filled with incredulity.

They had not expected Lu Yuan to come to the Celestial Star, not to mention fighting their Starfield Lord directly.

The top alarming factor here was that if this man was really Lu Yuan, then reality was just overly terrifying.

They had heard of him fighting Rankers in the earlier days. But no matter what, he was a junior on the path of cultivation. He might pose some threat but not too great to be overly concerned.

Even later when the Holy Sons of the Ji Clan and the Eternals died at his hands, the Celestials had not felt much for the same reason. Those battles were between juniors.

But now, things were different. Lu Yuan was directly battling their Starfield Lord. And judging from the situation, he was on the same level and had not fallen into a disadvantage.

What was the significance of this?

It meant that in that short period of time, Lu Yuan had grown yet again, into a true powerhouse in every literal sense of the word. He had become someone who could stand shoulder to shoulder with the strongest group in the cosmos.

Everyone present now had to regard him as a powerhouse on the same level as the Starfield Lords of various starfields.

In other words, he was someone they could only look up to.

Someone the Celestials had once disregarded had now reached the point where he could fight a Starfield Lord. How terrifying was that?

Rumble.

Meanwhile, the battle in the void continued.

The power of Lu Yuan’s blood qi shook continuously. A powerful aura surged layer after layer, and his entire figure was enveloped in endless light.

Opposite him, the Celestial Starfield Lord had a pair of wind-and-lightning wings, with black thunderbolts dancing around him.

The two of them looked like figures from myths and legends. Each collision made the mountains, rivers, and earth below shake, and a terrifying aura surged down.

The Celestials below went pale one after another, finding the pressure difficult to endure.

After learning Lu Yuan’s identity, they fell completely silent. No one had expected Lu Yuan to reach such a terrifying level.

In an instant, heaven and earth roared again.

Lu Yuan retreated, his face slightly pale. A trace of blood had even appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Indeed, in the clash earlier, he had been injured. A Celestial Seat Immortal was worthy of its name after all. In terms of strength alone, a Celestial Seat Immortal was far stronger than a Creation Immortal.

The two were simply not on the same level. Because of this, Lu Yuan felt immense pressure. He had used many methods, but in the end, he discovered he could not shake this Celestial Starfield Lord.

The battle intent in his heart surged once again. This was the exact feeling he wanted. The desire to fight with all his strength, walk on the edge of life-and-death, and advance further in the process.

Lu Yuan was not the only one feeling pressure.

Opposite him, the Celestial Starfield Lord’s pressure was growing greater as well. He could tell that Lu Yuan was only a Creation Immortal.

He was a Celestial Seat Immortal, and he also had the power of the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons. Even so, he had not been able to crush Lu Yuan.

On the contrary, throughout the battle, the Celestial Starfield Lord felt very uncomfortable.

Although he could remain undefeated and had not been injured, and the power within him was still abundant, from his perspective, was Lu Yuan not the same? The two of them had been fighting nonstop without any sign of ceasing.

It was as if Lu Yuan did not know fatigue. He charged forward again and again. No matter how patient the Celestial Starfield Lord was, facing such a person still left him thoroughly alarmed.

Even worse, he was clearly stronger than Lu Yuan, yet he could not defeat the latter.

Lu Yuan seemed injured and at a disadvantage, but the problem was that the Celestial Starfield Lord could not press that advantage further.

How exactly did this man do it? He is clearly only a junior.

The Celestial Starfield Lord was shaken and at a loss of words. He really could not understand how Lu Yuan could put up such a performance.

Admittedly, he now knew this person was Lu Yuan, but so what? How long had he cultivated? Yet he could fight him and not fall behind, even while being one realm lower.

This made the Celestial Starfield Lord wonder whether his own Celestial Seat Immortal Realm was real. How had so much time passed without him being able to take down a Creation Immortal?

”Again!” Lu Yuan roared once more from some distance away.

The battle intent around him surged again and filled the region. Even though he was injured, his aura was burning even stronger than before.
