Chapter 229 - The Count Rampaging throughout the Huaxian World of Cultivators
“The Vampiric Empire made a move, eh?” Lu Xuan frowned as soon as he got the news.
He was familiar with the Vampiric Empire, as it had been a monster of an organization that was notorious throughout the world at later stages.
He was also familiar with the Count, although he assumed that the Count as he was now was probably not as powerful as he knew the Count to be back in his past life.
According to what Lu Xuan knew back in his past life, the Vampiric Empire did indeed clash with the WuTang Clan multiple times over.
But then again, it was not a one-sided beating. The WuTang Clan’s formidable heritage was being made use of to the fullest as spirit qi was restored to the world.
As spirit qi of the world was further restored later, there had even been several extremely powerful people of Celestial Realm emerging from their ranks.
The Huaxian world of cultivators was able to handle itself well, even when taking on the Vampiric Empire, whose roots ran even deeper.
Things were different at present, as the WuTang Clan was almost wiped out of existence. All of the clan’s disciples of lower levels of training were all killed by the Count, dealing a crushing blow to the clan.
While the Dragon had not been able to kill the Count as well, but he was nonetheless far more powerful than all the others who fought the Count.
That battle reaffirmed the fact that the Special Task Force was still the most powerful cultivation force found in the nation.
It was especially so when the likes of runic ammunition, runic cannons, and other products that combined both scientific technology and cultivation, were being used. This made many fighters think twice about taking on the Special Task Force on.
Just as many of the fighters prided themselves on being utterly immune to the Special Task Force’s bullets and even shells, the Special Task Force quickly responded by fielding something capable of taking those people out.
One could even imagine the likes of runic RPGs and even runic nuclear munitions probably being developed in the future.
There was one very glaring trait among all of those weapons—they were developed specifically to take on the cultivators.
The development of such weapons went from merely dealing an unreal amount of physical damage to dealing mystical damage.
All who pondered about taking the Special Task Force on were forced to submit.
That battle had even alerted the Huaxian authorities. There were even rumors about the Zhongnanhai planning on fielding nuclear weapons to take out the Count.
The only thing that prevented them from doing so was how they continued to fail in tracking the Count, as he was moving too quickly.
As the Count continued to go on a rampage, many quickly realized something.
All beneath the Celestial Realm were less than bugs.
Many Invincible Vajra Level fighters were shocked to the core. They had not been able to do much or be proud of their achievements when a being at the Celestial Realm made his appearance.
All of them might have as well been made out of paper when facing off against someone of the Celestial Realm, for they were deemed to be little more than bugs that one could easily squish to death.
But then again, everyone quickly realized the Count’s goal of that trip; he was heading for Yunxuan Villa and targeting Lu Xuan.
The secret back in Penglai Island was out before long. Many came to know that the Huaxian fighter who killed Adam and Saint Peter was none other than Lu Xuan.
Count Dracula came with a specific purpose of exacting his revenge against Lu Xuan for what the latter did.
The Count went straight for Yunxuan Villa on the very next day, right after attacking the WuTang Clan.
However, the defenses of the villa were far above that of the WuTang Clan, and there was also the sword formation that Lu Xuan added in place prior.
The Count made quite an entrance when he got there, which resulted in him being trapped by both the sword formation and the illusory formation. He only managed to escape the villa after paying the price of having his arm cut off by a blast of sword aura.
That was also the first time the Count suffered any damage since the very moment he attacked the Huaxian cultivators.
