I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 735
Chapter 735: Amazing Speed, Easy Play
The sudden turn of events left Lu Qing helpless.
Despite his careful preparations
, he couldn’t have anticipated such a sudden turn of events. He
sensed the onslaught of attacks from the front. Even with the suppression of the Guixu Secret Realm, the power remained terrifying.
Lu Qing knew that hiding his weakness was now impossible.
The combined attack of over a dozen powerful soul masters above the Fifth Tribulation Realm was too great for even the most powerful soul masters to ignore.
Furthermore, this was a combined attack from numerous core disciples of the top sects under the stars.
Despite Lu Qing’s current strength, he couldn’t easily withstand it head-on.
Pressured by the intense threat, Lu Qing’s figure swayed like a wisp of smoke, and in the nick of time, he escaped, escaping the terrifying force.
However, the fleeing figures ahead of him weren’t so lucky.
The attacks of the dozen or so Black and White Temple disciples had been aimed at them.
Even those masters above the Fifth Tribulation Realm were unable to withstand the powerful outburst.
In the blink of an eye, they were all grievously wounded and collapsed to the ground.
“Huh?”
Mo Tushan, who had been standing back, unwilling to take action, was surprised at first. Then, upon seeing Lu Qing’s expression, his eyes lit up.
“Boy, it’s you! I’ve been searching for you for ages! I thought you’d been hiding somewhere, but I didn’t expect you’d have the nerve to show up here!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Tushan shot out like lightning, lunging towards Lu Qing.
Mo Tushan didn’t have time to consider Lu Qing’s sudden appearance, but he knew he was cunning.
If he wasn’t careful, he’d likely slip away again.
The power of a peak-level Soul Eight Tribulations was formidable.
Even under the immense suppression of the Guixu Secret Realm, his unleashed speed was still astonishing.
In a matter of seconds, like a fleeting shadow, he was within a hundred feet of Lu Qing.
Yet, despite Mo Tushan’s astonishing speed, Lu Qing remained expressionless.
His gaze was indifferent, and with a stomp of his foot, he retreated as well.
The figure flashed like lightning, no slower than Mo Tushan.
“What?!”
Mo Tushan was shocked to see that Lu Qing’s speed was not inferior to his own.
After all, the aura exuded by this boy was only at the level of the fifth tribulation of the Yuanshen realm. How could his speed match his?
Mo Tushan was unconvinced. His aura surged and shook again.
His speed suddenly increased, and he approached Lu Qing.
But at the same time that Mo Tushan’s speed exploded, Lu Qing’s speed also suddenly increased. He
was even faster than Mo Tushan, and the distance was widened again.
“How is it possible!”
Mo Tushan’s eyes widened. He couldn’t believe it. He had already unleashed more than 80% of his strength, but he couldn’t catch up with this kid with the fifth tribulation of the Yuanshen realm!
“That kid’s speed is actually comparable to Senior Brother Tushan’s?”
The other disciples of the Black and White Temple were equally shocked.
Their eyes widened as they watched two figures chase each other across the vast square, darting like streaks of light, unable to close the gap.
They couldn’t believe that Senior Brother Mo Tu Shan, a supreme primordial spirit with the cultivation of the peak of the Eight Tribulations, couldn’t catch up to a mere Fifth Tribulation cultivator.
“Who is that person? How could he hold out for so long against Mo Tu Shan?”
Elsewhere, the other factions, startled by the recent commotion and having come out to investigate, were also shocked by the scene.
They immediately recognized one of the figures as Mo Tu Shan from the Black and White Monastery.
The other figure, while seemingly less powerful, possessed speed that rivaled Mo Tu Shan’s.
“Senior Brother Yu Jian, that’s the cultivator you saved earlier,”
Qing Xi of the Kong Ming Sect said softly.
“It’s him. I didn’t realize my actions were unnecessary. He possesses such extreme speed that even if I hadn’t intervened, Mo Tu Shan might not have been able to defeat him.” Yu Jian sighed softly.
“But how could a mere Five Tribulations Soul be able to burst forth at such speed within the secret realm?” Qing Xi asked
, puzzled. The suppressive force within the Guixu Secret Realm was terrifying, and the space was incredibly solid and stagnant.
Even Eight Tribulations Souls like theirs couldn’t shake it even a bit.
This severely limited both the power of their Taoist magic and their speed.
Logically, weaker Souls should have faced even greater suppression.
But the mysterious cultivator before them, clearly only a Five Tribulations Soul, was able to burst forth at speeds comparable to Mo Tu Shan’s. This simply defied reason.
Yu Jian pondered for a moment, then said, “Perhaps he possesses some rare treasure. Anyone daring enough to enter the Guixu Secret Realm alone must have something to rely on.”
Qing Xi thought about it, and it made sense.
If this mysterious cultivator had no support, venturing into the secret realm alone would be tantamount to committing suicide.
“But if that happens, Mo Tu Shan will probably lose face,” Qing Xi said with a sudden laugh.
“Those of the demonic sect are inherently shameless. It’s a good thing someone can humiliate them. Let’s keep an eye on them, lest this fellow Daoist actually falls prey to his murderous hand,” Yu Jian said calmly.
However, he already referred to Lu Qing as “fellow Daoist.
” “Indeed, I see this fellow Daoist’s aura is radiant and bright, without a trace of evil. He’s clearly a member of the righteous path.” Qing Xi nodded slightly.
She practiced the Kongming Sect’s secret technique of observing qi, which allowed her to discern whether a cultivator’s aura was righteous or evil.
In Qing Xi’s eyes, Lu Qing’s aura was pure and radiant, without a trace of evil.
While she didn’t know his character, the cultivation method he practiced was definitely that of the righteous path.
“Such a treacherous fellow! No wonder he dared to toy with so many of us before.”
Elsewhere, Hei Ming’s eyes sparkled as he watched the two men chasing each other.
His interest in Lu Qing suddenly increased.
“This man must have some incredible treasure. Brother Hei Ming, how about we find a way to snatch it away?”
Fairy Tao’s charming voice echoed in Hei Ming’s mind.
“A rare treasure? That’s quite intriguing.”
Hei Ming stroked his chin, a thought stirring. A treasure
that could allow a Fifth Tribulation Soul, despite the suppression of the secret realm, to burst forth with speeds comparable to those of a peak Eight Tribulation Soul.
If such a treasure fell into his hands, what might it possess?
The thought stirred a fire in Hei Ming’s heart.
Given the conditions in the Guixu Secret Realm, possessing a speed exceeding that of a peak Eight Tribulation Soul would be a significant advantage.
Yet, despite his burning excitement, Hei Ming didn’t show it.
He simply nodded slightly and said calmly, “Let’s wait and see. With so many powerful warriors here, I’m afraid more than one has such thoughts. Let’s wait and see.”
“I’ll listen to Senior Brother Hei Ming,” Fairy Tao said delicately.
“Boy, you dare to tease me? You’re courting death!”
Just as the spectators were divided in their thoughts,
Mo Tu Shan suddenly roared.
He had already unleashed his full speed, yet still couldn’t reach Lu Qing.
He even attempted to use magic weapons and Taoist techniques to capture Lu Qing. However, under
the suppression of the Guixu Secret Realm, the magic weapons and Taoist techniques, their power greatly reduced, were powerless at a distance of over a hundred feet.
He knew full well that the young man before him was deliberately toying with him.
He could have easily escaped, but he had instead relied on his uncanny speed to keep him at bay.
Every burst of power he exerted increased his speed, making it impossible for him to catch up.
How could Mo Tushan endure such blatant humiliation?
As a direct descendant of the Black and White Sect and one of the most powerful spirits of the younger generation, he had never endured such a profound humiliation.
Immediately, a dense stream of demonic energy surged from him, enveloping him.
An incomparably terrifying aura rose, faintly suppressing the very space, causing the expressions of all the powerful warriors present to change.
But under Lu Qing’s constant prodding, he decided to use his true trump card and utterly destroy the brat who had dared to toy with him.
“Oh no, Mo Tushan is getting serious!”
Yu Jian saw this, his expression solemn, and a longsword appeared in his hand.
However, before he could make any further moves, Lu Qing, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly laughed.
“Haha, it seems that you, demon brat, have figured it out. You’re not so foolish after all.”
Upon hearing this, everyone’s expression suddenly froze.
Their faces were filled with disbelief, wondering if they had heard correctly.
What was this cultivator of the fifth tribulation of the soul saying? How dare he call Mo Tushan, who was at the peak of the eighth tribulation of the soul, a demon brat, and call him foolish?
Was this kid really going to kill himself?
As for Mo Tushan, his gaze became even colder.
The demonic energy from his body swept towards Lu Qing, but he easily dodged it.
But Lu Qing continued, “Alright, enough of the fun. I won’t play with you, you little devil. I hope you’ll behave yourself next time we meet, and not bark like a mad dog.”
As Lu Qing finished his words, his speed suddenly increased, transforming into a streak of light.
With a few taps of his foot, like a dragonfly skimming the water, he left Mo Tu Shan far behind.
He then dashed into a palace and vanished.
Mo Tu Shan, who had just activated his trump card and was furious, was stunned.
Lu Qing’s speed was so immense that even after using it, he couldn’t catch up.
The other experts were equally astonished.
Lu Qing’s final burst of speed might not have been impressive outside, easily surpassed by any of them.
But within the Guixu Secret Realm, it was astonishing, far exceeding their limits.
“What kind of rare treasure does this kid possess?”
Hei Ming was also astonished, and at the same time, felt a sense of annoyance.
Had he known the boy possessed such a mysterious treasure, he shouldn’t have hesitated and should have seized it directly.
Now that he’s escaped, with his cunning, there’s no telling when he’ll reappear.
“As expected, Yu Jian, you guessed correctly. This fellow Daoist must have relied on something to dare enter the secret realm alone,” Qing Xi couldn’t help but exclaim.
She was also shocked by Lu Qing’s final burst of speed.
However, after she spoke, she didn’t hear Yu Jian’s reply. Turning to look, she saw Yu Jian staring in the direction Lu Qing had left, lost in thought.
“Brother Yu Jian, what’s wrong?”
“Nothing,” Yu Jian said, regaining his composure and smiling. “I just didn’t expect that fellow Daoist’s speed to be so astonishing.”
“That’s right. This time, Demon Slaughter Mountain is going to be a laughing stock.
A peak-level Eight Tribulations Soul couldn’t even take down a mere Five Tribulations Soul, and was even humiliated by others.
If word gets out, it’ll become a joke throughout the galaxy.
Even the Black and White Temple will be considered nothing more than that,”
Qing Xi chuckled softly.
This time, she didn’t telepathically transmit her thoughts, but spoke directly.
Her voice wasn’t too loud, but just loud enough for nearly all the experts present to hear.
Hearing Qingxi’s words, many of the experts’ faces shifted.
Their glances toward Mo Tushan were even more intriguing.
They knew Qingxi was right. If this were to get out, Mo Tushan’s reputation would be severely damaged, and the Black and White Temple, along with it, would likely be ridiculed.
“Hmph, let’s go!”
Mo Tushan’s face suddenly darkened.
But he said nothing more, only a cold snort before leaving with the Black and White Temple disciples.
He even forgot to notice the several seriously injured figures on the ground.
“Not bad, not bad. I didn’t expect to see such a good show. It’s truly quite something.”
Hei Ming clapped his hands and laughed, then left with the disciples of the Nether Palace.
The other factions, seeing the show was over, also left.
They hadn’t yet completely dismantled the restrictions within the hall they occupied.
They had only come out to investigate after sensing the battle outside.
Now that the show was over, it was time to proceed with what needed to be done.
“Junior Sister Qingxi, why did you have to publicly provoke Mo Tushan?”
After all the powerful men had departed, Yu Jian sighed softly.
“I’m afraid Mo Tushan will bear a grudge against you now. The demonic sects are treacherous, and I’m afraid they’ll deal with you in secret.”
“Senior Brother, we righteous sects and evil sects like the Black and White Temple are irreconcilable. Why should we fear him? Even if Mo Tushan doesn’t come after me, Junior Sister will use him to test the sharpness of my sword.”
Qingxi remained unconcerned, speaking with complete confidence.
Seeing this, Yu Jian could only sigh inwardly.
He knew that the Kongming Sect and the Black and White Temple had a deep grudge. It was rumored that one of Qingxi’s elders had fallen at the hands of the Black and White Temple.
Therefore, he understood Qingxi’s hostility towards Mo Tushan.
However, while Qingxi’s cultivation was high, she still lacked the necessary depth to reach the state of Eight Tribulations Perfection.
He didn’t want the two of them to clash right now.
However, Yu Jian also knew that at their level, everyone had extreme confidence in their own strength.
Even if he tried to persuade Qing Xi, she might not listen.
So he didn’t say much, but he already had a plan in mind. In the future, the two sects would try to stay together to prevent the Kongming Sect from being ambushed.
Suppressing the thought in his heart, Yu Jian walked towards the figures lying on the ground, covered in blood. (End of this chapter)
