I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 667

Chapter 667: The formation stops, space shifts and the pursuit begins

Unleashing his full force, Lu Qing unleashed a savage, unstoppable sword energy, capable of truly severing heaven and earth, annihilating everything.

The three Nascent Soul Realm masters didn’t even have time to dodge before the sword energy swept through their bodies.

Instantly, the three Nascent Soul Realm masters froze, then plummeted from the air.

Not only was the vital energy within their bodies completely extinguished and dissipated, but their bodies shattered in two as they crashed into the building below, filling the air with a bloody aura.

This sight horrified the other Nascent Soul Realm masters who were charging forward. They immediately stopped, staring in disbelief at the three Nascent Soul Realm corpses below.

Once they confirmed their deaths, they turned to Lu Qing with horror. He had

slain three Nascent Soul Realm masters with a single sword strike!

This mysterious figure, who had escaped from the inner city and was specifically ordered to be stopped by the Gongshu clan patriarch, was truly such a terrifying figure!

More importantly, the sword energy had sent a shudder through their hearts.

It was the true aura of death.

This meant that if they were to encounter this sword, they would also be slain in a single blow, with no chance of escape!

Under the powerful threat of death, all the Yuanshen masters in the outer city looked at Lu Qing with utter fear, not daring to move forward.

“Get out of the way if you don’t want to die!”

After slashing three Yuanshen realm masters with his Heaven-shattering Sword Qi, Lu Qing once again transformed into a streak of light and flew out.

This time, none of the Yuanshen masters in the outer city dared to stop him.

They were all stunned and stood still, not daring to move, watching Lu Qing fly out of the city.

“Damn, these useless people!”

In the inner city, the old man with white hair and a youthful face sensed this scene through the formation and was both shocked and angry.

He was naturally shocked by the thief’s formidable strength. He was only a Jindan body, yet he could kill three Yuanshen realm masters with a single sword strike.

He was furious that these Yuanshen realm masters in the outer city were so shocked. They were nothing but useless people!

The dozen or so ancestors of the Gongshu clan standing before the inner city walls were equally horrified and furious.

They had never expected these useless people to be so cowardly and afraid of death.

“You bunch of losers! If you let him escape from the city, I will not forgive you!”

The old man with white hair and a youthful face roared with his soul, his mind racing again as he tried to open the light curtain of the formation on the inner city wall.

Forcibly halting the formation would damage the Zhoutian Star Formation, but he couldn’t care less at this moment.

“Oh no! The ancestor is angry!”

The soul-level cultivators in the outer city heard this roar and felt a chill in their hearts.

They knew that if they didn’t do something, they would be unable to explain themselves later.

Immediately, all the soul-level masters sprang into action once again.

This time, however, they dared not approach Lu Qing. Instead, they unleashed their Taoist magic and magical weapons, attacking him.

They didn’t seek success, just to stop him for a moment; that would be mission accomplished.

“Hmph! Courting death!”

Lu Qing’s eyes were cold. With a casual wave of his hand, countless sword energies suddenly condensed from thin air, radiating in all directions. The power of the Heaven-   Splitting

Sword Qi was unparalleled. Coupled with the fact that the numerous Yuanshen masters were working with minimal effort to avoid Lu Qing’s attention , the vast array of Taoist magic and magical weapons were shattered and repelled by Lu Qing   ’s sword energy, posing no threat to him. However, it did succeed in slowing him down considerably.   Lu Qing knew he couldn’t delay any longer. Although he still had a trump card, he didn’t want to use it here.   Immediately   , he opened his palm, and a ball of light suddenly appeared. In a breath, it expanded rapidly, enveloping all Yuanshen realms within a radius of dozens of miles, revealing a sky full of stars. “What is this?”   All the Yuanshen masters within the sword realm were startled and alert.   Precious light shone from their bodies, and each of them heaved up layers of defense.   ”Kill!”   Lu Qing shouted softly.   The starry sky suddenly transformed into countless sword lights, forming a sword array that crushed the Soul Realm cultivators within the Sword Dao Domain.   ”Not good! Everyone, unite!”   Feeling the power emanating from the sword array formed by the starlight, the Soul Realm cultivators within the Sword Dao Domain feared no mercy and immediately joined forces to resist the sword array.   However, after activating the Seven Star Sword Formation, Lu Qing didn’t even spare a glance before instantly escaping and continuing his flight out of the city.   He knew that with so many Soul Realm cultivators, even the Sword Dao Domain could only hold them off for a breath or two at best, and there was no way they could be truly trapped and slain.   His previous victory over the three Soul Realm cultivators was largely due to a surprising advantage.   Now that these Soul Realm cultivators were united in a defensive posture, even he would be unable to stop them for a while.   Fortunately, his goal was simply to hold these Soul Realm cultivators off.   A breath or two was more than enough time for him.   Transforming into sword light, he accelerated again. Unstoppable, Lu Qing’s speed soared to the limit.   When the Soul Realm cultivators in the Sword Dao realm broke free from the formation, all they saw was his receding figure.   ”Waste! Waste!”   The white-haired, youthful-looking old man in the inner city was practically mad with rage upon seeing this.   He watched Lu Qing’s escaping light drift further and further away, and he could no longer care for anything else.   He exhaled a breath of Yuan Qi onto the Zhoutian Formation Plate. With a faint crack, a finger-length crack appeared on the plate.   And all of Zhoutian City, whether it was the inner or outer city, the formation light screens, all exploded simultaneously, completely dissipating.

However, the old man with white hair and youthful features forcibly stopped the entire formation, even at the cost of damaging the formation’s core.

“The formation has stopped?”

The moment the Zhoutian Star Formation ceased functioning, both the dozen or so Gongshu Clan ancestors and Lu Qing were immediately aware of it.

After a moment’s pause, the ten or so Gongshu Clan ancestors, their aura surging, immediately pursued Lu Qing.

Their speed skyrocketed, exceeding several times that of their earlier encounters in the inner city.

The old man with white hair and youthful features glanced with a sense of heartache at the cracks on the Zhoutian Formation disk. After retracting it, a wave of spatial fluctuations flashed through him, and he vanished from the spot.

He was already a powerful Yuanshen who had begun to comprehend the principles of space. Previously, due to the existence of the Zhoutian Star Formation, the space within Zhoutian City had been suppressed, preventing him from performing spatial teleportation techniques.

Now that the formation had been forcibly stopped, his true power could finally be unleashed.

“The Zhoutian Star Array has stopped, and the spatial suppression has been released!”

Just before the figure of the white-haired and youthful face disappeared, Lu Qing realized what had happened.

Without a second thought, a jade talisman appeared in his hand and he activated it.

A force of space enveloped him, and the next moment, his figure disappeared from the spot.

“What?”

Everyone who saw Lu Qing disappear was shocked, their eyes filled with disbelief.

“The force of space?”

The moment Lu Qing vanished, the figure of an old man with white hair and a youthful face appeared where he was.

However, seeing the deserted surroundings and the lingering spatial fluctuations in the air, his face darkened.

Without a second thought, he vanished again, following the dimensional fluctuations and pursuing them.

“That thief actually knows the art of spatial teleportation?”

The dozen or so Gongshu clan elders, who had just arrived, looked at the emptiness before them with shock and dismay.

While their cultivation was high, they were far inferior to their father’s. Having not yet mastered the art of spatial teleportation, they stood no chance of catching up.

Now, their only hope was that their father could capture the thief.

However, recalling the various tactics and schemes the thief had previously displayed, the Gongshu clan elders developed a vague sense of foreboding.

“Someone’s catching up! Is it that old fellow?”

Lu Qing’s expression changed slightly as he emerged from the air, hundreds of miles from Zhoutian City.

He sensed a powerful spatial fluctuation permeating the void behind him. He

immediately knew that a powerful being was using the art of spatial teleportation, following the spatial fluctuations of the teleportation jade talisman to catch up.

Without hesitation, he activated the jade talisman again, and his figure vanished.

Less than a moment after he vanished, the figure of an old man with white hair and a youthful face emerged from the void.

His face sullen, he stared at the empty sky, sensing the lingering spatial fluctuations, knowing the thief had escaped again.

“Can you get away?”

the old man snorted coldly, giving chase once more.

He had figured out that the thief didn’t master the art of spatial teleportation, but rather possessed a spatial magic weapon.

Otherwise, a powerful being with mastery of spatial teleportation wouldn’t be able to travel a mere few hundred miles.

Thus, the thief would be unable to escape his grasp.

In this way, Lu Qing and the old man with white hair and a youthful face continuously shifted space, their figures flashing through the air, one chasing the other at a distance of hundreds of miles at a time.

However, Lu Qing’s chosen teleportation direction was not fixed, but rather spontaneous.

This was naturally to prevent the old ghost behind him from calculating his teleportation point and ambush him in advance.

“This is a bit troublesome.”

The figure reappeared from mid-air, and Lu Qing’s eyes became serious as he sensed the spatial fluctuations behind him.

The old ghost’s relentless pursuit clearly indicated that he would not stop until he caught up.

If this continued, his teleportation jade talismans would eventually run out.

“I should have prepared more jade talismans earlier,”

Lu Qing sighed, and disappeared again.

However, he also knew that even if he prepared more jade talismans, in a real competition of consumption, he would definitely be outmatched by this old monster’s soul.

“This is not a solution.”

Lu Qing knew that he had to make a decision.

Continuing to escape like this would be disadvantageous.

After all, one mistake would easily lead to capture.

As time went on, the probability of this happening would only grow.

After all, a powerful Yuanshen who had comprehended the laws of space had a good chance of calculating his teleportation pattern.

“I can only use my trump card,” Lu Qing sighed.

To escape his current situation, he had two options.

One was to use the secret realm stone tablet bestowed by the mysterious being within the Tianshu Divine Mountain secret realm.

This stone tablet, refined by that great being, could be used from anywhere to teleport him back to the secret realm. However,

the tablet only had three uses, making it extremely precious, so he must use it with caution.

Besides the secret realm stone tablet, another option was the Void Flying Boat.

The old ghost Gongshu, who was pursuing him, was clearly a master of the ways of space.

The distance he could teleport to was certainly considerable. However,

no matter how powerful his spatial teleportation skills were, they could not match the Void Flying Boat’s ability to travel through the void.

As long as he used the Void Flying Boat, he would surely be able to escape.

However, the Void Flying Boat was a top-grade spiritual artifact. While the old ghost might not recognize it, if word leaked, his identity would undoubtedly become a target of public criticism once again.

Who knows how many forces and powerful individuals would be targeting him.

“Never mind. There are already enough forces seeking me, so this one time won’t be a big deal. At worst, I can just change my identity.

Besides, this time’s harvest is enough for me to retreat again, without having to travel all over the place.”

After mentally monitoring the situation within the Lihuo Cauldron and the Qiankun Yiqi Bag, Lu Qing finally made his decision.

He cast the teleportation jade talisman once again, teleporting hundreds of meters away.

The moment his form materialized, Lu Qing summoned the Void Flying Boat, transforming into a stream of light and soaring into the boat. His mana surged, propelling the boat at top speed.

Instantly, an incredibly powerful spatial ripple surged around the Void Flying Boat.

At that moment, a figure became apparent in mid-air.

“What is this?”

The old man with white hair and a youthful face had originally thought that this time he would be in vain. He was even ready to perform another spatial teleportation.

But the scene before him made him stunned.

Before him, a silver flying boat was floating in the air, and the surrounding space force was surging around him, shocking him. A spatial vortex had formed in front of the boat.

“You want to run? Stay!”

The old man with white hair and a youthful face’s expression changed drastically. His mind raced, and he had already guessed that this flying boat was most likely the spatial treasure in the thief’s possession.

Without hesitation, he slapped his palm forward, and a massive hand composed of spatial force reached out to grab the flying boat.

But just as the spatial hand could not reach it, the flying boat suddenly shook, and a terrifying burst of power erupted, instantly shattering the hand.

Then, with a sudden leap, it plunged into the spatial vortex and disappeared.

The old man with white hair and a youthful face, his mind racing, sensed the lingering spatial fluctuations, and wanted to use the spatial teleportation technique to continue the pursuit.

But the next moment, his face darkened.

Disbelief filled his eyes: “How is this possible?!”

He discovered that the spatial fluctuations indicated that the flying boat had traveled an incredibly long distance through the void.

With his current attainments in the art of space, he simply could not teleport that far.

If you force yourself to follow, you will likely get lost in the endless turbulence of space. (End of this chapter)
