I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 700

Chapter 700: The evil spirits are overwhelming, and the holy mountain formation is broken!

The strangely handsome man was very angry.

This Eagle Demon guy always fails at the critical moment.

Everyone had already wasted a lot of time waiting for him to recover from his injuries.

Now he was asked to gather his own blood soul, but he was still dragging his feet.

If it weren’t for the lack of manpower, he really wanted to kick this guy out.

“Yes, why is the Eagle Demon so slow this time? Could something unexpected happen again?”

said a demonic figure.

“Humph, what else could happen? In this world, only Lu Xiaoyan is a threat to us, but she also needs the power of the formation to compete with us.

The other so-called righteous cultivators are nothing but chickens and dogs, and can be killed with a backhand.

I think the Eagle Demon’s injuries have not yet fully recovered, and he is deliberately delaying time, fearing that he will not be able to break the formation now and snatch the power of the mountain soul.”

Another demonic figure said coldly.

“I think we should just kick him out. The Demonic Blood Soul Banner is already complete, so a little blood soul isn’t a big deal,”

the first demonic figure suggested.

“Yes, the Eagle Demon is trying to stall for time, and I don’t want to wait any longer.”

“Let’s wait another half day,” the eerily handsome man said after a moment’s thought. “If he doesn’t return in half a day, we’ll complete the blood soul ourselves. Then, even if the Eagle Demon returns, he won’t have anything to say.”

“Okay, let’s do it.”

Half a day later, the three still didn’t see the Eagle Demon return.

A murderous look flickered in the eerie, handsome man’s eyes. “If that’s the case, don’t blame us for breaking our promise. Kick the Eagle Demon out. You continue the ritual here, and I’ll go collect the blood soul.”

With that, his figure transformed into a beam of demonic light and flew away.

The remaining two demonic figures exchanged a glance, then a tacit understanding emerged.

For them, as long as the Demonic Blood Soul Banners were complete, the Holy Mountain’s formation would undoubtedly be broken, and the Mountain Soul would be theirs.

At that point, the fewer people who shared in the spoils

, the better. The eerily handsome man worked with remarkable speed. Within half a day of his departure, he had already captured a host of living beings.

Then, ignoring their wails and pleas for mercy, he refined them into blood souls and threw them into the blood pool.

With the influx of these blood souls, a surge of demonic resentment arose, nourishing the eighteen blood banners, which emanated a rich bloody glow, finally reaching perfection.

“Great! The Demonic Blood Soul Banners are complete. This time, the formation on the Holy Mountain can no longer hold us back!”

The eerie, handsome man beamed upon seeing this.

The other two demons also beamed with joy.

“Two of you, after we’ve practiced and become familiar with the Demonic Blood Soul Banners, we can head for the Holy Mountain.

As for the Eagle Demon, it hasn’t returned yet. It seems it’s truly determined to stall for time. We don’t need to join forces with it anymore,”

the eerie, handsome man said.

“Of course, the Eagle Demon didn’t contribute much, and now he’s vanished without a trace. If anything, he’s the one who broke the contract first.”

The other two demons naturally had no objection.

They even planned to find an opportunity to find and devour the Eagle Demon after absorbing the mountain spirit and regaining their Yuan Shen realm.

That way, their immortal potential would be further enhanced.

Immediately, the three eerily handsome demons began seclusion, refining and practicing the Demonic Blood Soul Banner.

A few days later, the three demons emerged and headed straight for the Holy Mountain.

…

In front of Qinglong City, a figure slowly approached. Dressed in plain clothes, his face aged, he carried a longsword. It was the old doctor.

However, the old doctor, now a different person from his usual gentle demeanor, exuded a wisp of fierceness, and even his eyes had become sharper.

Looking at Qinglong City ahead, the old doctor’s gaze softened.

He recalled the days when he, Ah Qing, Xiao Yan, Xiao Li, and Wei Zi’an had traveled to Zhongzhou together.

“I don’t know how Ah Qing is doing now. Since he left, all sorts of demons and monsters have appeared in the world. I wonder if he’ll be disappointed when he returns and sees all this.

Ultimately, it’s our incompetence that failed to maintain the peace he enjoyed when he was here.”

The old doctor shook his head.

Since leaving Jiuli Village, he had originally planned to visit the Holy Mountain to visit Xiaoyan and the three Holy Lords and inquire about the current situation in the world.

However, even on the way, he witnessed numerous instances of demonic cultivators wreaking havoc and slaughtering lives.

Furious, he immediately slew them all.

The malevolent aura emanating from his journey to slay demons and monsters was a natural result.

Because of the rampage of demonic cultivators, Qinglong City, once a major city, now constantly maintains formations to prevent demonic intrusion.

Just as the old doctor was considering whether to enter the city to rest, his expression suddenly changed.

He sensed several incredibly powerful demonic forces descending from overhead.

The demonic might was as terrifying as the one that had attacked Jiuli Village not long ago.

The old doctor looked up and saw three black streaks of light streaking across the sky.

Unabashedly radiating his demonic might, he exuded an overwhelming power.

Simultaneously, the citizens of Qinglong City sensed this terrifying demonic might and erupted in unrest.

“Three demons?”

The old doctor gasped in surprise at the sight of the three black streaks of light, and the sword on his back fell into his hands.

Just as he thought the enemy was about to attack Qinglong City, he prepared to fight.

The three demons didn’t even pause, flying straight past Qinglong Pass and towards Zhongzhou.

“Xiefeng, did you sense a Jindan-level cultivator just outside Qinglong City?”

a demonic figure said from high in the sky.

“Just a mere Jindan-level cultivator, don’t worry about it,” said the eerily handsome man. “Our most important task right now is to break through the Holy Mountain’s formations and refine the Mountain Spirit.

Once our cultivation reaches the Yuanshen realm, we’ll rule the world.

A mere Jindan-level cultivator who dares to disobey will be annihilated in a snap.”

The other two demons shared their thoughts. Their priority now was to reach the Holy Mountain; they didn’t want to cause any further complications.

“Isn’t this an attack on Qinglong City?”

The old doctor was stunned when he saw the three black streaks of light disappear into the sky.

But as he looked in the direction they were heading, a sudden thought struck him, and his expression changed again.

From the demonic aura emanating from the three black streaks, he suspected they were the demons Wei Shanhai had mentioned, preying on the world.

But now, there are so many citizens in Qinglong City, but they have not taken any action. It is obvious that they have more important things to do.

As for what that thing is, although the old doctor does not know, he has a vague feeling in his heart.

According to the information Zhirui once gave him, last year, the four great demons besieged the Holy Mountain, but were finally repelled by Xiaoyan with the help of the formation left by Ah Qing.

After that, the four demons began to plunder living beings on a large scale, and no one knew what evil magic they were practicing.

Now they are so high-profile and heading to Zhongzhou again. Could it be that they have made up their minds and want to attack the Holy Mountain again?

The old doctor did not know if his guess was right, but he had a bad feeling in his heart.

Immediately, he transformed into a stream of light and flew towards the Holy Mountain.

His explosive aura stirred Qinglong City, which had just calmed down somewhat, into a commotion once again.

Atop the Holy Mountain, Xiaoyan, who was in seclusion in her cave, opened her eyes.

“My cultivation is still too slow,”

Xiaoyan said with a hint of frustration.

She had entered the Sixth Stage of the Golden Core Realm several years ago.

But even with the support of the Holy Mountain’s spiritual energy, she had only reached the Minor Success Stage of the Sixth Stage. She

was still a long way from the Full Success Stage of the Sixth Stage, let alone the Seventh Stage.

Furthermore, after entering the Sixth Stage, her cultivation speed had significantly slowed. Every incremental improvement in her cultivation required a significant amount of time and energy to refine the spiritual energy.

“No wonder my brother left back then. The lack of spiritual energy purity significantly impacted his cultivation speed.”

At that moment, Xiaoyan finally understood why Lu Qing had chosen to enter the starry sky and embark on that perilous and unknown path.

“But brother, so many years have passed. Where have you been? We promised to return in fifty years at most. Why haven’t you come back yet? Did you and Xiaoli encounter some danger that prevented you from returning?”

“Brother, Xiaoli, Xiaoyan misses you so much.”

Xiaoyan removed a fish stone from her neck and gently touched it, her eyes misty as she murmured to herself.

Her fragile appearance was no longer the cold and aloof Lu Xianzi that outsiders perceived.

Instead, she had transformed back into the little girl who often hid in Lu Qing’s arms.

After a while, Xiaoyan calmed down, carefully put the fish stone back on her neck, activated the formation in the quiet room, and walked out.

“Xiaoyan, you’ve come out?” Han

Lingshuang, who was cultivating in another quiet room, sensed the movement and came out, immediately surprised.

Since the four demons attacked the Holy Mountain last year, Xiaoyan had practiced even more diligently, rarely leaving her quiet room.

“Yes, I want to go out for a walk,” Xiaoyan nodded.

“Then I’ll accompany you,” Han Lingshuang said immediately.

Xiaoyan was about to refuse, but seeing the hope on Han Lingshuang’s face, she finally nodded, “Yes.”

“Then let’s go!”

Han Lingshuang immediately smiled.

The two of them left the cave and began a stroll on the Holy Mountain.

Because the cave was located at the top of the Holy Mountain, it commanded considerable pressure.

Coupled with Xiaoyan’s high status and the prohibitions personally issued by the three Holy Lords,

no disciples dared approach the cave where Xiaoyan practiced.

Therefore, no one disturbed them during their stroll.

Instead, the three Holy Lords, sensing Xiaoyan and her companions’ presence, came over to greet them.

“Fairy Lu, why are you so elegant today, out and about?”

the First Holy Lord chuckled.

“My Lord Holy Lord, I wonder if I’ve been in seclusion for too long. I’ve been practicing for a while, and I’ve been feeling a little restless, so I came out to relax,” Xiaoyan said.

“It’s good to relax. Cultivation requires a balance of effort and relaxation for long-term success. Sometimes, you need to relax your mind,” the First Holy Lord said gently.

Several people were chatting when suddenly their faces changed and they looked up.

They saw three black streaks of light, emitting terrifying demonic power, coming from the distant sky, rapidly approaching the Holy Mountain.

“Those demons!”

The First Saint Lord’s face changed drastically, and his voice instantly echoed throughout the Holy Mountain.

“Evil demons are attacking! All disciples and elders, return to your caves immediately!”

Upon hearing the message, the disciples and elders throughout the Holy Mountain were initially shocked, then all summoned their skills and swiftly returned to their respective caves.

The next moment, a vast array of light flashed from the Holy Mountain.

Incredibly powerful formation waves began to surge.

“Fairy Lu,”

the First Saint Lord looked at Xiaoyan.

Xiaoyan nodded, “Leave it to me,”

and immediately took control of the Holy Mountain’s formation.

The three Saint Lords assisted in the operation of the formation, doing their best to relieve Xiaoyan’s stress.

Feeling the immense power of the formation upon her, Xiaoyan’s eyes were cold.

Just as she was about to activate her flying sword to slay the demons, she saw over a dozen blood-red streams of light emanate from the three demons before they even approached. They dispersed and flew towards various parts of the Holy Mountain.

“What is that?”   Sensing

the incomparably evil aura emanating from the dozen or so blood-red streams, the First Saint and the others instinctively sensed something was amiss.

Xiaoyan immediately activated her flying sword towards one of the streams.   With a resounding clang of metal, the blood-red light proved incredibly strong and was not immediately severed by Xiaoyan’s flying sword.   On the contrary, Xiaoyan felt her flying sword corroded by the evil aura, even experiencing a slight malfunction.   This delay allowed the dozen or so blood-red streams to approach the Holy Mountain.   The light of the formation surrounding the Holy Mountain, intended to block them, quickly melted upon contact with the blood-red streams, creating large holes.   Ultimately, unable to stop them, the dozen or so blood-red streams were firmly embedded in the mountain.   ”What?”   The First Saint Lord and the others were all shocked when they saw that the light curtain of the Holy Mountain’s formation could not block the dozen or so blood-colored streams of light.

It was only then that they saw clearly that the dozen or so blood-red streams of light were actually long, blood-red banners crafted from an unknown material.

Boom!

As the banners were driven into the Holy Mountain, a terrifying, evil aura erupted.

Accompanied by the screams of countless blood souls, a torrent of blood began to flow into the Holy Mountain’s interior, rapidly contaminating its spiritual and earth veins.

At the same time, Xiaoyan and the others felt the power of the formation blessing them rapidly weaken.

Even the First Saint Lord and the others received a warning from the mountain spirit, a warning tinged with panic.

“The Holy Mountain’s formation is being destroyed, and the mountain spirit is afraid?”

The series of shocking changes caught the three Saint Lords off guard.

It was the first time they had sensed panic in the mountain spirit.

“Hahahahaha…”

Just as the First Saint Lord and the others were horrified, a burst of laughter echoed from the sky.

The three strangely handsome men had appeared, seemingly suspended in thin air, gazing down from above.

“Fairy Lu, we meet again. I wonder if you can still stop us this time?” (End of this chapter)
