I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 597

Chapter 597: Shocking the Four, Secretly Discussing Cooperation

It wasn’t until the Qiankun Sect’s men disappeared into the dense forest that the powerful figures from the various factions lurking in the shadows finally reacted.

Then, a wave of disbelief and exclamation erupted.

“What did I see? That man actually engaged the black wolf beast head-on, smashing its skull with a single punch, killing it instantly!”

“He fought the black wolf beast head-on with his bare hands, and was

he able to kill it?” “This man is definitely not a Qiankun Sect disciple. Who is he?”

“Indeed! If the Qiankun Sect had such a formidable disciple, they wouldn’t have been tricked by the Gongshu family a few days ago, resulting in casualties!”

“Investigate immediately. We must uncover this man’s identity!”

For a moment, exclamations echoed throughout the dense forest.

Countless powerful figures were stunned by Lu Qing’s recent slaying of the black wolf.

They were all well aware of the black wolf beast’s strength.

Although still at the initial stage of the Golden Core stage, its exceptionally strong body and immense vitality were immense.

Furthermore, the unique characteristics of this secret realm significantly diminished the power of their Taoist magic weapons.

Therefore, even for those in the late Jindan stage, slaying these black wolf beasts is a significant challenge.

As long as they aren’t killed instantly, no matter how severe their injuries, they can recover quickly.

Therefore, everyone was so shocked to see Lu Qing slay a black wolf beast with a single blow.

“Brother Batian, this person’s body seems incredibly powerful, capable of crushing that black wolf’s head with a single punch. I wonder how he compares to you?”

Somewhere in the dense forest, Shen Zangfeng also looked surprised and asked Batian beside him.

“It’s hard to say,” Batian shook his head, his expression somewhat solemn. “Although that black wolf beast is only in the early Jindan stage, its body is as powerful as a magic weapon.

I could kill it with my physical strength alone, but it wouldn’t necessarily be so clean.

So, we have to fight to find out.”

“Is this person so powerful?”

This surprised Shen Zangfeng.

He had only asked casually, but he didn’t expect Batian to be so unsure.

You must know that the members of the Overlord Clan possess ancient bloodlines, born with exceptional constitutions, possessing powerful physiques and exceptionally skilled in physical cultivation.

Batian, in particular, is the strongest of the younger generation of the Overlord Clan. Cultivating the clan’s signature technique, the Overlord Record, he has already reached the ninth stage of the Golden Core Transformation.

While he hasn’t yet truly achieved the Nine Transformations of the Golden Core, his physical strength has reached an incredible level.

Shen Zangfeng had clashed with him before, and even without the use of magical weapons, his sword energy barely dented Batian’s body.

Therefore, he had a profound understanding of the strength of Batian’s physical body.

Now, hearing Batian say that the man’s physical strength was likely as strong as his own, Shen Zangfeng couldn’t help but be astonished.

“It’s just physical strength. This person must be pursuing a pure path of physical cultivation. Perhaps he’s also obtained some rare treasures, which is why his body is so incredibly powerful.”

Batian laughed. “Just based on the physical body, I wouldn’t dare say I can defeat him. However, in our Overlord Clan’s cultivation path, physical strength is only one aspect.

In true combat, [Overlord Qi] is our foundation.”

Chen Cangfeng nodded.

The [Overlord Qi] cultivated through the Overlord Clan’s signature technique, [Overlord Record], is renowned. Even in the entire Tianyuan World, it is an extremely powerful and formidable force.

Moreover, this power can only be cultivated by the Overlord Clan. It is precisely because of this domineering magic that the Overlord Clan has been able to maintain its position among the top three of the Thirty-Six Supreme Clans for so many millennia.

“This person does have some skills, but I don’t know his origins. I’ve never heard of such a powerful disciple from the Qiankun Sect.”

“Whatever his origins, he’s only one person. Even if we add the Qiankun Sect’s disciples, they won’t pose much of a threat to us.” Batian said, “For us, the most important thing is the opportunity within the ancient pagoda.

After all, Brother Chen, you know the situation within the ancient pagoda.

Relying solely on our own strength, I’m afraid we won’t be able to overcome the trials within.

Would you, the Tianjian Sect, join forces with our Bawang Clan?”

“I can’t make the final decision on this matter alone. I have to go back and discuss it with my fellow disciples before I can give you a reply, Brother Batian.”

“Then Brother Chen, you’d better hurry. Otherwise, I have a feeling that Daoxu Temple and Biluo Palace might make some moves. If they get there first and seize the opportunity, we’ll regret it.”

“I’ll give you a reply as soon as possible.”

…

“Interesting boy, it’s really rare to have such a strong physical body. Could you be the disciple of those old monsters?”

On the other side, somewhere in the dense forest, someone also chuckled.

“It’s just killing a black wolf monster. What’s so surprising about it? If we weren’t afraid of angering the monsters in the innermost part, we could have killed them easily.” Another cold voice said lightly,

“Having said that, it’s rare to encounter a Jindan realm cultivator who can cultivate to this level. I’m a little excited.”

“Why, are you tempted and want to recruit him as your golden armored guard?”

“I do have this idea. Soon, I will compete with the senior brothers in the temple for the position of young master. If I have such a golden armored guard, it would be a great help.” “

I think it’s a bit difficult. This person doesn’t seem like someone who would be inferior to others. Besides, didn’t you say just now that he might be a disciple of those old monsters? If that’s the case, would you dare to recruit him as a golden armored guard?”

“It’s not confirmed yet. What if he is a casual cultivator? In that case, he can become a disciple of our Daoxu Temple. That is an opportunity that many geniuses can’t ask for.”

“Alright, these are just small matters. You just said that you wanted to cooperate with our Biluo Palace and enter the tower to seize the opportunity. Is this true?”

“Yes, we’ve all been to the ancient pagoda before. You should understand the difficulty of the trials there. It’s impossible for us to pass them alone. Only if our two families work together can we have a chance.”

The cold voice was silent for a moment before finally agreeing, “Okay, but before we go in, we must swear a soul oath and agree on three rules.”

“Of course.”

…

“Ayu, your feeling that day was correct. This person is indeed very dangerous.”

The woman at the Gongshu clan’s location couldn’t help but speak with a look of shock on her face.

The other Gongshu clan members were equally astonished.

They hadn’t expected that the young man they had encountered not long ago, who was only at the initial stage of the Golden Core stage, could unleash such terrifying power.

They had all experienced the power of the black wolf beast firsthand.

That unassuming young man had actually killed it with a single punch. If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t have believed it.

Some Gongshu clan members couldn’t help but feel lucky that they hadn’t attacked Lu Qing and the others before.

Otherwise, if they had been caught off guard and received such a punch, no one besides Gongshu Yu would have been able to withstand it.

“Yeah, I didn’t expect that.”

Gongshu Yu’s expression was a little solemn.

Although he had felt before that Lu Qing and the others were not as simple as they seemed.

But he had never expected that his strength would be so formidable.

And thinking of such a person, who was so close to the people of Qiankun Sect, Gongshu Yu felt a little unhappy again.

And thinking of Ye Qingzhu and the others he had just seen, his intuition told him that the recovery of Ye Qingzhu and the others from their injuries was probably also related to Lu Qing and the others.

Thinking of this, Gongshu Yu’s eyes turned and he began to ponder.

Lu Qing had no time to pay attention to the shock and reaction caused by his killing of the black wolf monster to the many forces in the dense forest.

At this moment, he had returned to the valley where the Qiankun Sect and others had stayed before.

Soon, a group of Qiankun Sect disciples and the Five Treasures Taoist priests also rushed back.

“Fellow Daoist Chen…”

Qin Zheng was about to speak when Lu Qing interrupted him with a wave. “Fellow Daoist Qin, I’d like to recuperate for a while. Could I borrow the room here?”

“Is Fellow Daoist Chen injured?” Qin Zheng swallowed his words and said hastily, “Of course, please feel free to use me.”

“Not injured, just a bit drained. Please wait a moment.”

Qin Zheng remembered how much Lu Qing had previously expended healing Ye Qingzhu and the others. He

had just slain another black wolf beast, and he said, “Fellow Daoist Chen, please recuperate quickly.”

Lu Qing bowed and led Xiao Li into the room. He casually set up a formation to conceal their aura, then summoned the Lihuo Cauldron and began to refine the blood within the black wolf beast.

The reason he was willing to expose some of his strength in front of so many powerful beings in order to slay the black wolf beast was naturally because of the witch blood within it.

A treasure like this, capable of permanently enhancing one’s physical strength and potential, is a rare find. Now that one has come across it, they mustn’t let it go.

While Lu Qing was refining the essence of the black wolf beast within the house, the Qiankun Sect disciples, under Qin Zheng’s command, were outside, re-arranging the defensive formation to protect the entire valley.

After completing their work, the Qiankun Sect disciples gathered in a corner of the valley.

Qin Zheng looked at Ye Qingzhu and the others.

“Junior Sister Qingzhu, didn’t you say before that Fellow Daoist Chen excels in swordsmanship, his swordsmanship unparalleled? How come…”

Qin Zheng stopped talking at this point, but the meaning behind his words was clear.

The other Qiankun Sect disciples also looked at Ye Qingzhu and the others.

Even now, they recalled the moment Lu Qing had just slain the black wolf beast, and their hearts were still filled with emotion.

Amidst the roars of tigers and dragons, he had crushed the black wolf beast’s skull with a single blow. The scene was so shocking

that they almost wondered if they were witnessing an illusion.

But while they were stunned, they also shared the same question as Senior Brother Qin Zheng.

Wasn’t Fellow Daoist Chen’s specialty swordsmanship? He was able to slay Li Motian, a late-stage Jindan realm cultivator who had fallen into the demonic path, with a single sword

strike. But just now, he had used his pure physical body to withstand the attacks of the Black Wolf Beast and slay it.

While his displayed strength was equally formidable, this ferocious fighting style couldn’t possibly be compared to a swordsmanship practitioner!

“I don’t understand,” Ye Qingzhu said, her face equally bewildered. “When Fellow Daoist Chen slew Li Motian,

he certainly used swordsmanship. Even my master, after seeing the sword wounds on Li Motian’s body, praised his swordsmanship prowess.

I had no idea he was also skilled in boxing, and his physical body was so formidable.”

Ye Qingzhu’s shock was no less than that of her fellow disciples.

She had always believed Lu Qing to be an extremely powerful swordsman, also incredibly proficient in medicine.

For this reason, she even asked her master if there was a powerful Yuanshen master who was both a doctor and a swordsman, and who might be Lu Qing’s master.

However, the scene just now told her that what she knew was only one side of Lu Qing.

Lu Qing’s mystery and strength far exceeded her imagination.

As for Zi Xiao and Chu Xiaojing, they were also bewildered.

They couldn’t understand why Lu Qing, who was originally a powerful swordsman, was also so powerful in boxing.

“Even you don’t know.”

Qin Zheng looked at the expressions of Ye Qingzhu and the other two, knowing that they probably didn’t understand this matter.

But since even Elder Mo Xuan admired his swordsmanship, Lu Qing’s swordsmanship must be astonishing.

Immediately, he turned his gaze to the Five Treasures Taoist.

The fat Taoist priest waved his hand. “Don’t look at me. I’m just like you all. We met by chance on the way to Tianshu City. We

just had a great conversation and ended up traveling together.

But I don’t know much more about Fellow Daoist Chen than you do.

The astonishing boxing skills Fellow Daoist Chen displayed just now were the first I’ve seen, and I’m still thrilled.” “

Yes, Second Senior Brother,” Chu Xiaojing added. “When Big Brother Chen saved us, he was alone. It wasn’t until we met in Tianshu City that Taoist Wubao joined him.”

Qin Zheng was stunned by this.

He hadn’t expected that this fat Taoist priest, who had ventured into the secret realm with Lu Qing, was just as unfamiliar with him as they were.

He looked towards Lu Qing’s room, a puzzled look in his eyes. “It seems Fellow Daoist Chen’s background is truly unfathomable.”

Taoist Wubao also looked towards the room.

But while he marveled at Lu Qing’s mysterious nature, he was also thinking about something else.

“I’m afraid that Fellow Daoist Chen is not regulating his breathing in there, but refining the blood of the black wolf monster.”

Taoist Wubao has a deep understanding of the strength of Lu Qing’s magic power.

When the two of them were on the road, he had adjusted his breath and recovered countless times, but Lu Qing had not adjusted his breath once.

So he simply did not believe that the burst of energy he had just used to kill the black wolf beast would cause Lu Qing to consume so much energy.

Thinking of the strange blood in the bodies of those black rats in the forest before,

the Five Treasures Taoist vaguely guessed the real reason why Lu Qing killed the black wolf beast.

It should be for the blood in its body.

Of course, the Five Treasures Taoist would not say these guesses.

Since Lu Qing did not say it on his own initiative, he would naturally keep it secret.

Just when everyone was thinking about different things, suddenly a voice came from outside the valley.

“Brother Qin Zheng, I have something to visit you about.”

Hearing this voice, the faces of all the Qiankun Sect disciples changed.

Because they all knew that this was the voice of Gongshu Yu.
