I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 598

Chapter 598: Breaking up the relationship and refining the golden elixir-level blood

“How dare the Gongshu clan come looking for us?”

“We haven’t even demanded an explanation for the deaths of Junior Brother Zhao Gang and the others!”

“That’s perfect! Let’s settle our scores!”

Upon

hearing Gongshu Yu’s words, the faces of all the Qiankun Sect disciples changed drastically, and they became enraged.

“Alright, calm down. Guests are welcome, so don’t be rude.”

Qin Zheng’s expression also changed slightly.

But he still tried to calm his fellow disciples first.

They were now in a secret realm, with an uncertain future. This was not the time to confront the Gongshu clan.

“Let’s go out and see what the Gongshu clan’s purpose is.”

Qin Zheng activated the formation and led his fellow disciples out of the valley. They saw it was indeed Gongshu Yu, waiting outside with his men.

“Brother Qin Zheng, how are you?”

Gongshu Yu asked with a smile as he saw Qin Zheng and the others emerge.

He seemed completely oblivious to the unfriendly expressions on the faces of the Qiankun Sect disciples.

“Thanks to you all, everything is fine. It’s just that my junior brothers Zhao Gang and Wang Ming died a tragic death.”

Qin Zheng’s expression was calm, but his words were not.

Upon hearing this, the unfriendly expressions on the faces of the Qiankun Sect disciples deepened.

“I am also deeply saddened by the deaths of my two noble junior brothers. I only regret that my strength is limited. I could only do my best to protect my clansmen that day, but was unable to provide any assistance. I am truly ashamed.”

Gongshu Yu’s shameful expression only intensified the anger of the Qiankun Sect disciples.

Chu Xiaojing couldn’t hold it in any longer and shouted, “It was you who betrayed us, escaped without permission, and disrupted the formation that day, which led to the deaths of Senior Brother Zhao Gang and the others. And now you dare to come here and make sarcastic remarks? This is simply too much!”

“Indeed,

this is simply too much!” “What a vain villain!”

“Shameless! I didn’t expect the Gongshu family, one of the Thirty-Six Supreme Clans, to be so despicable!”

For a moment, the crowd was in an uproar, and the other Qiankun Sect disciples also started to curse.

Hearing this rude insult, the Gongshu family’s faces changed.

They already looked down on these Qiankun Sect disciples, and now they dared to insult them, how could they bear it anymore.

“How dare you insult our Gongshu clan? Are you tired of living?”

“We came here to give you a favor, yet you’re so ungrateful and insult us! You’re simply courting death!”

“You’re saying we’re treacherous. It’s clearly you who have no credibility. When we first entered the secret realm, we agreed to explore it together. But you were too weak to withstand the attacks of the strange beasts, resulting in casualties. Now you’re blaming us for it! You’re completely out of your mind!”

“Have you ever considered the consequences of insulting our Gongshu clan? Are you, the Qiankun Sect, trying to start a war with our Gongshu clan?”

“You…” Chu Xiaojing grew even more enraged when she heard the Gongshu clan’s people not only refuse to admit their mistakes but also try to shift the blame.

She hadn’t expected them to be so shameless. She

was so enraged that she wanted to draw her sword.

“Xiaojing!”

Qin Zheng’s expression was equally dismal, but he still stopped Chu Xiaojing.

The Gongshu clan’s overall strength was currently far superior to theirs, and Gongshu Yu’s realm was also superior.

If a fight broke out here, the Qiankun Sect would likely suffer.

So Qin Zheng suppressed his anger and looked at Gongshu Yu.

“Young Master Yu, you didn’t come here just to taunt us, did you? Tell me, what is your purpose?”

“Brother Qin Zheng, you misunderstood me. I did come to express my apology,” Gongshu Yu said with a smile.

However, what he saw was Qin Zheng’s cold eyes.

After a slight pause, he abandoned his pretense: “Of course, besides my apology, I also want to discuss the cooperation between our two families with Brother Qin Zheng.”

At these words, the Qiankun Sect disciples erupted in anger again, ready to shout.

But Qin Zheng silenced them with a wave of his hand.

“Young Master Yu, you’re joking,” Qin Zheng said coldly. “Do you think our two families can still trust each other after what happened that day?”

“That’s fine. If Brother Qin Zheng doesn’t trust us, we can swear a soul-to-soul oath. That way, you can rest assured, right?”

However, Qin Zheng remained unmoved. “I appreciate your kindness, Young Master Yu. However, we are disheartened by the deaths of Junior Brother Zhao Gang and the others.

Furthermore, Junior Sister Qingzhu and the others are still recovering from their injuries and need to rest.

We don’t want to venture into the secret realm again for the time being. Please find other helpers, Young Master Yu.”

Hearing Qin Zheng’s repeated refusal, Gongshu Yu’s smile finally faded.

“So, Brother Qin Zheng, you really don’t want to join forces again?”

“Everyone, please go back.”

Gongshu Yu looked at Qin Zheng quietly. Seeing his face calm but his eyes firm, he immediately understood what he meant.

“Brother Qin Zheng, have you forgotten what your sect’s senior disciple instructed us to do when we came in? He told us to work together to compete for the opportunities within this secret realm. Now you’re unilaterally breaking that agreement. Have you thought about how to explain this to Senior Gan Lingxiao?” “

This is our Qiankun Sect’s business, so there’s no need for you, Young Master Yu, to worry about it,” Qin Zheng said calmly.

“Okay, very good.” Gongshu Yu’s face darkened. “I hope Brother Qin Zheng won’t regret your decision today.”

“Please go back.”

Gongshu Yu grasped the jade fan in his hand, but ultimately chose not to take action.

There’s no point in clashing with Qin Zheng and the others now.

They’re no pushovers, and even if they win, it’ll be a pyrrhic victory.

With their vitality severely depleted, the Gongshu clan will be even more vulnerable in this secret realm.

Therefore, engaging in a conflict of egos now is simply not worth the effort.

Realizing this, Gongshu Yu suppressed the chill in his heart and gave a final wave of his hand.

“Let’s go.”

Seeing the Qiankun Sect’s refusal, the other Gongshu clan members’ expressions also grew colder.

As they left, their gazes toward Qin Zheng and the others were filled with hostility.

“Second Senior Brother, I don’t think the Gongshu clan will let us down like this. The next time we meet, we might be enemies.”

After the Gongshu clan members had departed, Ye Qingzhu said with some concern.

“What’s there to be afraid of? At worst, we can just fight them. If Second Senior Brother had stopped me, I was just about to strike them down!”

a Qiankun Sect disciple exclaimed.

“That’s a good opportunity to seek justice for Senior Brother Zhao Gang and the others,” Chu Xiaojing also exclaimed.

“Gongshu Yu and the others will not confront us head-on, as that will not do them any good.” Qin Zheng said, “But you also have to be careful that they may attack us secretly. In the days to come, you must not act alone, lest you get ambushed when you are left alone. Do you hear me?” “

Yes, Second Brother!”

The disciples of Qiankun Sect were startled when they heard this, and responded in unison.

They all knew that, with the shamelessness of the Gongshu family, they might actually do something so despicable.

“Alright, let’s retreat to the valley first. Just be more careful from now on.”

Everyone returned to the valley and saw Taoist Wubao still guarding it. The wooden hut where Lu Qing was staying remained locked.

“Master Wubao, has Fellow Daoist Chen not yet finished his breathing exercises?” Qin Zheng asked.

“Fellow Daoist Chen just sent a message to me, saying that he had gained some insights during the battle with the black wolf monster and needed to retreat for a while to digest his insights. He told you not to wait for him. He’ll probably be out tomorrow,”

Taoist Wubao replied.

“Fellow Daoist Chen is truly a genius. He can even gain insights in battle,” Qin Zheng praised. “In that case, there’s no need for us to stay here. Go and do your own things.

Junior Sister Qingzhu, Junior Brother Zixiao, your bodies haven’t fully recovered yet. This is a good opportunity to rest up.”

“Yes, Second Senior Brother,”

Ye Qingzhu and the others agreed.

They also knew that only by fully recovering their strength could they avoid being a burden to their fellow disciples.

After all, this secret realm was rife with dangers.

Now that they had truly fallen out with the Gongshu family, they would likely face further attacks from them.

Only by quickly recovering their strength could they better cope with the situation.

Immediately, the Qiankun Sect disciples went about their business.

Some meditated, others studied their techniques. Ye Qingzhu and the others grasped a spirit stone, drawing its spiritual energy to heal their injuries.

Meanwhile, in the wooden hut, Lu Qing gazed at a dazzling vein of blood suspended before him, lost in thought.

Indeed, he had extracted the witch’s essence blood from the black wolf beast.

The witch’s essence blood from a Jindan-level beast was truly extraordinary.

Lu Qing sensed the immense energy contained within the vein before him.

Deep within his heart, a strong desire surged, making him wish he could devour it all at once.

However, Lu Qing suppressed his body’s instincts with immense concentration, preventing them from affecting his mind.

“Ah Qing, do you want to refine this bloodline?”

Xiao Li asked, standing on Lu Qing’s shoulder, gazing at the blood-diamond-like vein. He swallowed and then asked.

He, too, felt an intense desire for this bloodline.

If it hadn’t already awakened its spiritual intelligence and followed Lu Qing’s travels, its Dao heart had been well-honed. He

probably wouldn’t have been able to suppress his inner desire.

“Well, I’m not sure what the risks of refining this Jindan-level bloodline are. I’ll give it a try first.

If the risks aren’t too great, we’ll hunt other Jindan-level beasts and extract their bloodlines for you to refine.”

Lu Qing rubbed the little creature’s head and soothed him.

The witch’s primordial blood contained a malevolent aura, and the strength of this Jindan-level bloodline was unknown. Lu Qing didn’t dare risk letting Xiao Li refine it first.

Xiao Li understood this and immediately urged, “Then Ah Qing, refine it quickly, or I’m afraid I won’t be able to resist swallowing it!”

“Okay.”

Lu Qing smiled, and without hesitation, he opened his mouth and swallowed the witch’s blood floating in front of him.

As the blood entered his body, Lu Qing immediately focused his mind and spirit to refine it.

Instantly, the vast and mysterious life energy within the blood erupted, continuously absorbed by him, and his body strengthened at a speed visible to the n*ked eye.

Along with the blood, a powerful evil spirit

exploded within Lu Qing’s body, surging and rushing towards his brow acupoint.

“Is this the evil spirit impact that Xiao Li and the others felt?”

Lu Qing felt the erupting evil spirit, and a sudden realization emerged within him.

Previously, when he refined the Foundation Establishment-level witch’s blood extracted from the black-scaled black rat, he could only feel a “light breeze” brushing against his brow acupoint.

It couldn’t even shake it in the slightest.

He wasn’t even sure if it was actually evil energy.

Now, while refining this Jindan-level blood, he finally felt the impact of the so-called evil energy.

However, Lu Qing soon discovered that

although the evil energy of this Jindan-level blood was over ten times more powerful than that of the Foundation Establishment level,

it still couldn’t cause him any harm.

Compared to his diamond-like Acupoint between the Eyebrows, this Jindan-level blood evil energy was merely a more powerful “wind.”

It couldn’t truly break the defenses of the Acupoint, let alone penetrate it and corrode his soul.

“Is it because the Black Wolf Beast is only at the Initial Jindan stage? So, while the evil energy’s strength is significantly higher, it’s still not too severe?”

Lu Qing sensed it all and silently analyzed it.

If that were the case, Xiao Li should be able to withstand this level of evil energy.

As for the Five Treasures Taoist, that was harder to say.

After all, his foundation was somewhat weak. Refining the Black Rat’s Essence Blood had already proven difficult.

If he were to refine this Jindan-grade Essence Blood, he might not be able to maintain his composure and withstand the onslaught of the evil spirit within.

“But this witch’s Essence Blood is truly miraculous,”

Lu Qing sighed as he felt his body continuously strengthening.

He could sense that the witch’s Essence Blood wasn’t simply enhancing his physical strength; it was also causing a deeper transformation within his body, greatly enhancing his potential.

This is undoubtedly an extremely extraordinary ability.

You must know that after Lu Qing condensed his perfect golden elixir, his foundation was already profound enough.

Even the flawless, top-grade innate golden elixir, hailed by the world as a child of destiny, a peerless genius, and the seed of the Dao,

far surpassed him in terms of both foundational depth and cultivation potential.

Putting aside other things, a flawless, top-grade innate golden elixir, barring any unforeseen circumstances, can generally cultivate to the consummation of the ninth transformation of the golden elixir.

Furthermore, the probability of achieving a Primordial Spirit is extremely high, unless one has committed a monstrous sin that incurs the wrath of heaven and humanity, forsaken by both heaven and earth.

Generally speaking, achieving a Primordial Spirit with diligent practice is not difficult for a flawless

, top-grade innate golden elixir. This is why cultivators who have survived the nine levels of thunder tribulation and condensed a flawless, top-grade innate golden elixir are called Daozi in the cultivation world.

Once such a flawless golden elixir is achieved, it is equivalent to condensing a seed of the Dao.

This provides the foundation for achieving a Primordial Spirit and pursuing the Great Dao.

The potential of the flawless innate top-grade golden elixir is so powerful that it amazes the world.

However, Lu Qing’s perfect golden elixir is much more powerful than this!

Because its cultivation limit is not the ninth golden elixir transformation, but the twelfth golden elixir transformation!
