Global Awakening: I'm the Only One Ready-Chapter 208. Alarming! Invincible Beneath the Stars!

The battle had ended.

From the summit of Mount Tai to an abandoned city, the clash spanned hundreds of miles, destroying vast swathes of forest along the way. Some terrain had even been reshaped with regions collapsing into sinkholes and entire lakes being scorched dry by the searing heat.

The battle could be considered one that defied all comprehension, an epic fight that shook the heavens and earth. Since the Global Awakening, not a single confrontation had come close to this scale.

Even the most formidable Awakened couldn't calm their hearts upon witnessing the aftermath of the battle. This was a level of combat far beyond anything they had anticipated.

Now that the battle had come to an end, the body of the Celestial Race's Lesser Sage plummeted from the sky and crashed to the ground below. All life vitals were completely snuffed out.

A Sage died just like that—slain by someone of a lower realm.

Elder Ji and the other higher-ranking officials stood stunned as they tried to process the scene before them. Their hearts and minds struggled to find peace.

King Lu...has really won?

He defeated a Sage from the Outer Cosmos?

Prior to the battle, everyone had clung to traces of hope, but when reality was presented before them, they were still overwhelmed by disbelief. On Earth, no one had reached the Sage Realm. But everyone knew just how terrifying a Sage would be.

Yet in the end, King Lu still emerged victorious. Just like before, every single time, he was the victor, the last one standing.

"The Celestial Race's Lesser Sage has fallen? What about the other two Sages? Where are they?"

"Yeah. Didn't three Sages descend together? I don't see the other two."

"Don't tell me... That human Lu Yuan already killed them before this."

Whispers spread among the other outer space beings who arrived at the battlefield just in time to witness Lei You's death. The scene left them thunderstruck.

But soon after, they came around and realized that the Void Sages from the Primeval Daemon Race and the Three-Headed Ghost Race were nowhere to be found.

There was no helping it since they had arrived too late and hadn't witnessed the earlier battles.

Only now did they witness the death of the Celestial Race's Lesser Sage and yet find no signs of the other two. A chilling realization began to settle in.

All three Sages had fallen!

As soon as the realization sank in, every single Outer Cosmos being was shaken to their core.

If only one Sage had been slain, it might still be justifiable. After all, the suppression of the Separation of Heaven and Earth restricted Sages from unleashing their full potential Besides, they also concede that Lu Yuan was strong enough to pull off a reversal under such conditions.

But now, this was not just one Sage, but three!

Was that human Lu Yuan truly that powerful?

That was the only thought occupying the minds of all the Outer Cosmos beings present.

They had once thought that with the descent of the Sage, the power structure of this world would be rewritten. Their kind could then begin to harvest the fruits of this world, plunder its blessings, and unearth legacies without restraint.

Yet, that human had slaughtered Sages.

A chill rippled through the air. No one dared speak. All eyes rose to the figure suspended in the heavens.

In contrast, after a moment of stunned silence, humans, represented by the official authorities, found their gazes blazing with barely-contained excitement.

Above them, Lu Yuan remained standing in midair.

Lei You had fallen. The battle was truly over.

However, Lu Yuan's breathing was no longer as steady as it had been at the start. Now, a faint raggedness laced each breath.

One had to admit that the power of a Lesser Sage was indeed terrifying.

The moment Lei You cast aside all restraint and unleashed his full might, even just for a breath of time, the pressure he exerted on Lu Yuan was immense enough for the latter to be pushed to his limits.

In the end, Lu Yuan still sustained internal injuries, though they weren't life-threatening.

Of course, Lu Yuan was not so arrogant as to believe that his current strength was enough to slay a Lesser Sage at their fullest potential. In truth, if he were to fight one at their peak, his chances of victory were slim. Even after unleashing every card in his sleeve, the most he could hope for was survival and nothing else.

The phrase "All below the Sage Realm are ants" wasn't just an empty saying.

The only reason he had succeeded in slaying Lei You was because of the Separation of Heaven and Earth that had suppressed the latter's power.

Naturally, Lu Yuan would not grow conceited. Instead, he felt an even deeper sense of urgency. His current strength was still far from enough. With time, more powerful entities would descend and he must continue to grow stronger within this short window of time. Only then could he withstand the crisis ahead.

Without further thought, Lu Yuan turned to face the crowd below.

The moment the Outer Cosmos beings felt his gaze, each and every one of them instinctively shrank back. To them now, Lu Yuan was like an incarnation of Death, and not someone to provoke lightly.

But Lu Yuan paid them no further mind. He descended slowly from the skies and landed next to Elder Ji and the others. A faint smile graced his lips as he said, "Let's go. It's over now."

"Yes, King Lu," Elder Ji replied, his eyes gleaming with hope. Without a trace of hesitation, he turned and led the group back toward the Mount Tai Trials Academy.

The greatest crisis to date had finally come to an end. With the Separation of Heaven and Earth still in effect, at least the situation would remain stable for a brief time. No drastic changes would be happening in the immediate future.

More importantly, everyone came to the realization that King Lu had now proven capable of even neutralizing threats from Sages.

What would happen if he continued to evolve? Just what heights could he reach and how terrifying would he become?

Perhaps...he was this world's last hope.

As for the Outer Cosmos beings, their hearts were leaden with dread. They had descended upon Earth with visions of domination over this underdeveloped civilization that would crumble beneath their might.

But now, that illusion had been shattered.

And just as Lu Yuan and the others made their way back to Mount Tai, the news of the three Sages' descent and then slain one after another spread across the entire world like wildfire.

In an instant, Earthlings erupted with thunderous emotion.

A crisis of apocalyptic scale had been resolved. Even Awakened at the sixth and seventh stage of evolution were no match for Lu Yuan.

└Where are those aliens now? Didn't you guys claim that all below the Sage Realm are ants? Yet our Lu King slain three sages! And now you are silent.

└Of course they wouldn't dare talk. The reality is before them. King Lu is invincible. No matter how many powerful beings descend from space, he will crush them all single-handedly!

└Maybe it's too early to claim invincibility. After all, there are always higher mountains and loftier towers. But King Lu has proven that these so-called Outer Cosmos beings are nothing special.

└He may not be invincible across all realms, but in this very milky way, King Lu is definitely invincible!

When the Sages from space first descended, their arrival was like a looming storm cloud that cast a shadow over the hearts of all.

Especially when the battle began, anxiety gripped everyone like a vice.

They all knew too well that if Lu Yuan were to be defeated in this battle, then every living creature on Earth would be at the mercy of the invaders. Since the strongest among them were defeated, what chance did the rest have?

However, out of everyone's anticipation, Lu Yuan not only survived, he had triumphed and annihilated three Sages.

Now, those Outer Cosmos beings who boasted so arrogantly about their Sages had fallen into utter silence.

This was a deliverance, a cause for celebration to every Earthling. In particular, on the Internet, someone even coined a new title for Lu Yuan: Invincible Beneath the Stars.

What did it mean to be invincible beneath the stars? It meant that under the current galaxy that Earth was in, no one could rival King Lu.

And such was the reality and the truth.

From the moment the Outer Cosmos beings set foot onto Earth, there had been Rankers, prodigies and then Sages.

But in the end?

All of them had been slain by Lu Yuan.

If that wasn't invincibility, then what was?
