I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 693

Chapter 693 Sword Qi and Thunder Sound, Lu Qing’s Back-up Plan

“Fairy Lu (Xiaoyan)!”

Seeing Xiaoyan summon her flying sword and slash at the powerful demons emanating demonic energy in the sky, the three Saint Lords and Han Lingshuang were all shocked.

The demons above exuded a terrifying aura, at least reaching the late Jindan realm.

Xiaoyan, despite her strength, was only at the sixth Jindan stage. How could she possibly take on four demons simultaneously?

Fortunately, Xiaoyan only summoned her flying sword and did not follow her, which reassured the three Saint Lords and Han Lingshuang.

However, this also made them realize that a battle was inevitable.

The three Saint Lords exchanged glances, then mentally channeled the Holy Mountain beneath them, preparing for battle.

Although their cultivation had advanced significantly over the years, even the strongest, the First Saint Lord, was only at the fourth Jindan stage. A

head-on confrontation with the four demons above was impossible.

The only way for the three brothers to draw upon the power of the Holy Mountain and form a formation was to stand a chance.

Xiaoyan’s flying sword was unparalleled in its savage power, imbued with a chilling, murderous aura that froze everything.

The moment it was unleashed, the four demons in the sky were instantly struck with fear.

Even as powerful as they were, they felt a chill run deep within them.

For a moment, unwilling to withstand the powerful sword’s aura, they dodged to the sides.

However, having launched her attack, Xiaoyan naturally wouldn’t let it end so easily.

Her sword gestures shifted, and the sword light split into four, each pursuing the four demons.

She was determined to single-handedly slay the four demons.

Xiaoyan’s action immediately struck the four demons with her arrogance.

The Eagle Demon, in particular, let out a strange cry, “Little girl, you truly don’t know your place. You’re only at the middle Jindan stage, yet you dare to be so arrogant!”

Before he could finish his words, the Eagle Demon grasped with his hand, and a surge of demonic energy erupted, transforming into a massive black eagle claw that grabbed the sword light that was heading his way.

The Black Eagle Claw’s power was undeniably formidable. As soon as it appeared, the three Saint Lords and Han Lingshuang felt a powerful pressure descending from above, their breath catching.

However, Xiaoyan’s sword light was even more exquisite.

Just as the Black Eagle Claw was about to grasp it, it traced a mysterious trajectory, like refracted lightning. With a thunderclap, the sword light instantly accelerated.

In the blink of an eye, it reached the Eagle Demon, slicing towards its head.

Simultaneously, three other sword beams transformed, evading the demons’ obstruction and blasting with thunderous claps, slashing towards their true forms.

“Multitasking! Sword Qi, Thunderous Sound!”

The four demons exclaimed in shock. They had never imagined Xiaoyan’s swordsmanship had reached such a level.

Even while attacking all four of them simultaneously, she could still perform such exquisite transformations.

Even these once-powerful Yuanshen masters were caught off guard, and they could only watch helplessly as the sword light slashed towards them. Boom

boom boom boom!

Four loud bangs were heard, and Xiaoyan’s sword light all slashed onto the bodies of the four demons.

Instantly, the demonic energy dispersed.

The four demons were slashed by Xiaoyan’s sword light and flew backwards.

“Hit them?”

The three Holy Lords, Han Lingshuang, and the many disciples of the Holy Mountain who were watching the battle below, all opened their eyes wide when they saw this scene, and their hearts were even more excited.

No one had expected that Fairy Lu could fight four alone and actually attack the real bodies of the demons.

Everyone stared at the four demons, wanting to see what would happen to them after enduring such a fierce attack from Fairy Lu.

“Hahaha, not bad, not bad.”

At this moment, the Eagle King, who was slashed by the sword light, turned over and returned to the Holy Mountain, laughing loudly.

“No wonder Xie Feng is so obsessed with you, little girl! You’re truly fierce, and your swordsmanship is quite impressive. You’re able to injure me with your mid-stage Jindan cultivation. Even in our time, you’d be considered a peerless swordsmanship prodigy!”

By this time, the Eagle Demon’s body had dissipated, and his black robe had been ripped open by a crack, leaving a deep, bone-deep sword wound on his body.

However, the Eagle Demon seemed unconcerned with his injuries, instead gazing at Xiaoyan with a fiery gaze, as if

he were gazing at some extremely rare prey. His sword wounds were healing at a visible rate.

Meanwhile, several other demons had also returned.

Although they all bore varying degrees of wounds, like the Eagle Demon, their injuries were also healing rapidly.

Even their aura hadn’t weakened much.

In other words, while Xiaoyan’s sword light had injured them, it hadn’t damaged them at all.

Seeing this, Xiaoyan’s gaze suddenly fixed.

When the people on the Holy Mountain saw this scene, they felt even colder in their hearts.

“After taking the sword light of Fairy Lu, these demons were only injured physically?”

The First Saint Lord immediately realized the seriousness of the matter.

Xiaoyan was already the strongest fighter on their side, and even she could only barely injure these demons.

Doesn’t that mean that they are bound to lose this battle?

Thinking of this, the First Saint Lord made a decision immediately.

The soul was shaken, and a voice appeared in the ears of every disciple of the Holy Mountain: “All disciples of the Holy Mountain, return to the cave immediately, activate the formation, and join forces to fight the enemy!”

The disciples of the Holy Mountain were stunned at first when they heard the voice, and then without hesitation, they rushed back to the cave where they lived.

The next moment, the cave closed, and a light curtain of the formation appeared in front of them.

“What is this?”

All the disciples of the Holy Mountain were surprised. They had lived in their caves for so long, but had never seen such a thing.

At this moment, the voice of the First Saint Lord rang in their minds again.

“Disciples of the Holy Mountain, listen up! Infuse your spiritual energy and magical power into the formation to maintain it.”

When all the disciples of the Holy Mountain did as ordered, an extremely powerful formation wave emanated from the Holy Mountain.

The wave was so strong that even the four demons in the sky changed color.

Xiaoyan also looked back in surprise. She had no idea that the Holy Mountain actually had such a hidden card.

“Don’t be surprised, Fairy Lu. This is the support your brother left for our Holy Mountain. He once said that this formation can only be used in life-or-death situations.”

Facing Xiaoyan’s puzzled eyes, the First Saint Lord explained.

Xiaoyan’s body trembled. “Is this the formation my brother left behind?”

The First Saint Lord explained, then stepped forward to meet the four powerful figures emanating from the sky. He spoke loudly, “Demons, tell me, what brings you to the Holy Mountain?”

“Are you the so-called First Saint Lord?”

The Eagle Demon looked down at the First Saint Lord.

His aura suddenly increased.

The other three demons looked at the First Saint Lord.

However, the First Saint Lord remained undaunted. A powerful formation wave emanated from him, completely dispelling the pressure from the four demons.

He then calmly nodded, “Yes, I am.”

Seeing that the First Saint Lord, a mere fourth-level Jindan cultivator, was unfazed by their pressure, the four demons’ eyes flickered with surprise.

“Interesting! I didn’t expect you, a Mountain Soul puppet, to possess such remarkable abilities, able to leverage your formations and unite the power of the Mountain Soul and numerous disciples.

But do you think a single formation alone can stop the four of us?”

the Eagle Demon said, glaring coldly.

“Whether you can stop me or not, you might as well give it a try,”

the First Saint Lord said calmly, unflinching.

“Alright, then, I’ll give it a try. What are you relying on ?”

Without hesitation, the Eagle Demon struck out into the air. Suddenly, a massive black eagle claw descended from the sky, clutching at the First Saint Lord.

Xiaoyan, seeing this, was about to attack, but the First Saint Lord waved her hand, stopping her.

“Fairy Lu, there’s no need to fight. Let me experience this demon’s evil magic.”

With that, the First Saint Lord extended his hand and slapped out.

With this strike, the Holy Mountain shimmered with light. Infinite formation power condensed in a flash, culminating in a massive, five-colored palm that charged towards the Eagle Demon’s black eagle claws.

“It’s my brother’s Five Elements Myriad Magic Palm!”

Xiaoyan’s eyes widened at the sight of the massive, five-colored palm.

The next moment, the giant palm and the black eagle claw collided.

Bang!

An unstoppable burst of power erupted, shattering the black eagle claw for barely a breath before it was shattered by the palm, transforming into a cloud of demonic energy that was constantly annihilated.

Even after shattering the black eagle claw, the massive palm continued its momentum, surging upwards, striking the four Eagle Demons high in the sky.

“What?”

The four demons exclaimed in shock.

They had never imagined that the Eagle Demon’s prized Daoist technique could be broken by a mere fourth-level Jindan cultivator.

Gazing upon the immense, unparalleled power of the palm, a chill inexplicably emanated from the four demons.

They immediately understood that the palm’s immense power was too great to withstand head-on.

A direct hit, even with their demonic bodies, would be too much to withstand. Even if they survived, they would be severely damaged.

Sensing the palm’s threat, the four demons immediately dodged.

Fortunately, the palm’s speed wasn’t too fast, and the four demons, employing their agility, easily avoided it.

Eventually, the massive palm’s momentum weakened, unable to pursue further, it slowly descended back into the Holy Mountain, transforming once again into the power of the formation.

Seeing the four demons easily evade his Five Elements Myriad Dharma Palm, the First Saint Lord’s face betrayed regret.

“What a shame! If Young Master Lu Qing had used this palm, none of these demons would have been able to escape.”

“Saint Lord, was this palm technique taught to you by your brother?” Xiaoyan asked.

“Indeed, I was fortunate enough to have Young Friend Lu Qing teach me this art. However, my talent is dull. Even now, I can only activate the Five Elements Myriad Laws Palm with the aid of the great formation, and my techniques are clumsy. Otherwise, how could these demons have escaped?”

Xiaoyan nodded slightly.

She saw that the First Saint Lord was able to unleash the Five Elements Myriad Laws Palm because of the formation.

“Brother, so you had this back-up plan back then…”

Gazing at the protective glow of the formation that enveloped her, Xiaoyan was lost in thought.

It was as if she had returned to the days when her brother had protected her as a child.

“Fairy Lu, these four demons are formidable. After all, you have only a short time to cultivate. There’s no need to fight for your time or succumb to their provocations.

Wait until you have achieved a breakthrough in your cultivation before you can confront them.

With the formation left by Young Friend Lu Qing, even if these four demons are formidable, they won’t be able to harm our Holy Mountain.”

Seeing Xiaoyan’s expression, the First Saint Lord took the opportunity to offer advice.

Xiaoyan surveyed the surrounding formation’s glow and finally nodded, “Alright.”

Seeing Xiaoyan’s agreement, the First Saint Lord finally breathed a sigh of relief. The

reason he’d gone to such lengths to activate the formation, even at the cost of exposing the Holy Mountain’s ultimate trump card, was to persuade Xiaoyan.

Over the years, Xiaoyan’s cultivation had deepened, and the number of demonic cultivators she slew each year was countless.

But at the same time, her murderous aura had intensified, and her personality had become increasingly withdrawn.

In the past, Han Lingshuang had occasionally managed to persuade her, but in recent years, her words had become increasingly difficult to sway Xiaoyan’s heart.

The Eagle Demon had clearly intended to lure Xiaoyan out, deliberately provoking her with his words.

That was why the First Saint Lord had no choice but to activate the formation.

Firstly, the four demons who had arrived this time were truly terrifying, the most formidable foes the Holy Mountain had ever faced.

Secondly, the First Saint Lord knew that, besides Lu Qing, the only person who could currently persuade Xiaoyan was the old doctor.

But the old doctor is stationed in Jiuli Village all year round and can’t rush here immediately.

Then the only way to make Xiaoyan listen to his advice is to use things related to Lu Qing.

Fortunately, his guess was correct. After knowing that the formation was set up by Lu Qing, Xiaoyan finally stopped being impulsive.

“Then the next step is to make these demons retreat.”

The First Saint Lord looked upwards.

Above the sky, the Eagle Demon and other four demons were looking at the holy mountain below with fear, where the formation light was flashing.

“What should we do, the three of you? I didn’t expect that there would be such a powerful formation set up in this holy mountain. With this formation, it will not be easy for us to take over this mountain.” The Eagle Demon said with a grim expression.

“Indeed, this formation can draw upon the Holy Mountain’s soul and the combined strength of countless disciples. Those disciples are fine, not worth mentioning, but the power of the mountain soul is formidable.”

Another demonic figure nodded.

“Why is there such an exquisite formation on the Holy Mountain? Those three so-called Holy Lords are so weak in cultivation that they shouldn’t be able to set up such a large formation,”

the fourth demonic figure wondered.

“I’m afraid it’s a backup plan left by that one,” the eerily handsome man sighed.

“That one, you mean, the kid known as the best in the world?” The Eagle Demon said, unconvinced. “How long has that kid been practicing? How could he possibly possess such mastery of formations?”

“That one is clearly the Son of Fortune of this era. What does the Son of Fortune represent? I don’t need to explain it to you, do I?” the eerie, handsome man said.

The other three demons fell silent.

The Son of Fortune is synonymous with miracles.

Any outrageous event, when it occurs to the Son of Fortune, seems to make sense.

“Then what should we do? The power of this holy mountain’s spirit is crucial for us to recover to the realm of the primordial spirit. Can we just leave like this?”

The Eagle Demon said with resignation. (End of this chapter)
