I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 757

Chapter 757 The Gathering of the Seventh Level, Come and Receive Your Death

“Senior Brother Yu Jian, how’s your comprehension going?”

Qing Xi asked at the seventh level of the Sword Dao Pass.

“The sword intent of this seventh level is profound and mysterious; I’ve only grasped four or five tenths so far,” Yu Jian sighed.

“Senior Brother, you can grasp four or five tenths, but I can only grasp three tenths so far,” Qing Xi said helplessly. “It seems I can’t pass this seventh level; I can’t keep up with you.”

In the previous levels, Qing Xi was able to rely on her sword dao talent to keep up with Yu Jian.

However, her foundation was ultimately inferior to Yu Jian’s.

After so long of trying to comprehend the sword intent of this seventh level, she was still completely lost, only barely grasping three tenths of its true meaning.

To fully comprehend it and successfully pass the level seemed unlikely.

“Don’t give up,” Yu Jian encouraged. “The time limit for breaking through this seventh level is ten years, and only two or three years have passed so far, so there’s still a good chance.

Even if you can’t break through, it’s good to comprehend the sword intent here.

The sword intent contained within these testing stones is clearly an extraordinary sword path inheritance.

The more you study it, the more beneficial it will be to our sword path accumulation.”

“Senior brother is right, I was a bit too impatient.”

After this reminder, Qing Xi also realized something.

In fact, after being here for so long, she had already understood that the testing stones in this sword path passage were both a test and an opportunity.

The profound sword intent contained within was itself an extremely profound sword path inheritance.

If it were complete, it would be no less than the core sword path techniques of their Kongming Sect.

It’s just that the sword intent of this seventh level was too profound and obscure, and she couldn’t comprehend it smoothly, which made her a little impatient.

“But Senior Brother Yu Jian, if I can’t break through this barrier, I won’t be able to join forces with you to fight against Mo Tu Shan and the others in the later barriers,” Qing Xi said with some worry.

“It’s alright, they might not be able to defeat me. Besides, even I’m not confident I can break through this seventh barrier. It’s too early to think about that,” Yu Jian laughed.

“With your sword cultivation, Senior Brother, you’ll definitely be able to break through,” Qing Xi said confidently. Just

as Yu Jian was about to say something, suddenly, a beam of light appeared in the space of the seventh barrier.

The two of them immediately became alert, their swords instantly appearing in their hands, their blades glowing, ready for battle at any moment.

Ever since they were ambushed by Mo Tu Shan, the two of them had become quite wary.

Any movement made them think someone was coming to ambush them.

However, when they saw where the light appeared, it wasn’t in the seven teleportation arrays, but in the very center of the space.

“Senior Brother Yu Jian, this doesn’t seem to be someone coming from other passages, but more like…”

Qing Xi said hesitantly.

Before she could finish speaking, a figure had already appeared in the beam of light.

The two men tensed up instantly.

Even the old Azure Dragon and the others, who had been watching from the Immortal Palace, became somewhat nervous.

They wondered if Lu Qing would clash with Yu Jian and the others.

However, when the light dissipated, fully revealing the figure inside, Yu Jian and the others were stunned.

“It’s you?”

Qing Xi’s eyes widened when she saw that the person who had appeared was Lu Qing.

Although she had realized that the pillar of light represented someone successfully breaking through from the sixth level to the seventh level,

she never expected that the person who broke through would be Lu Qing.

Qing Xi naturally recognized Lu Qing.

She had watched him toying with Mo Tu Shan and even made a few sarcastic remarks.

Lu Qing’s speed that day had also left a deep impression on her.

But she never imagined that Lu Qing would appear in the seventh level of the Sword Path.

Judging from the pillar of light just now, he was clearly still breaking through levels and rushing into the seventh level.

A mere fifth-stage Nascent Soul cultivator was actually keeping pace with them in the Sword Dao Trial Passage, which astonished Qingxi.

Even among the other disciples of their Kongming Sect and Potian Sword Sect, not a single one had yet reached the seventh level.

And among their junior brothers and sisters were many powerful cultivators at the seventh-stage Nascent Soul perfection.

“So it’s you two fellow Daoists at the seventh level. I’ve met you both.”

Lu Qing was also somewhat surprised to see Yu Jian and Qingxi.

He hadn’t expected them to still be at the seventh level after so much time.

He had originally thought they wouldn’t encounter them until at least the eighth or even ninth level.

“Fellow Daoist is indeed unassuming; we’ve all misjudged you.” Yu Jian sighed.

Now he understood that Lu Qing had likely been concealing his abilities all this time.

No wonder he dared to explore the Guixu Secret Realm alone.

“Fellow Daoist Yu, you flatter me. I haven’t yet thanked you for that sword strike you received that day.” Lu Qing thanked him.

When they first entered the Guixu Secret Realm, Mo Tushan attacked Lu Qing, and it was Yu Jian who intervened, allowing Lu Qing to escape successfully.

Although Lu Qing was confident he could have left even without Yu Jian’s help,

he would have inevitably exposed some of his trump cards.

Therefore, he remembered this favor.

“Fellow Daoist, you jest. With your strength, my sword strike back then was merely superfluous,”

Yu Jian said, not feeling he had done Lu Qing any favor.

With the incredible speed Lu Qing later displayed, escaping Mo Tushan was a piece of cake; he didn’t need Yu Jian’s help at all.

Lu Qing smiled but didn’t explain further.

Instead, he asked, “I have a question I’d like to ask you both, fellow Daoists. Is that alright?”

“Please speak, fellow Daoist,” Yu Jian said politely.

Although Lu Qing’s origins were mysterious, he hadn’t sensed any hostility from him.

Furthermore, Lu Qing was at odds with Mo Tushan, so he would be happy to befriend him.

More importantly, there was something about Lu Qing that had been on his mind.

So he was still happy to have the opportunity to get closer to Lu Qing.

“How long have you two been in this seventh level? Have you been to other passages? Do you know which trial passage you took to reach Demon Slaughter Mountain, and what level you are at now?”

Hearing Lu Qing’s barrage of questions, Yu Jian was slightly taken aback.

He then replied, “My junior sister Qingxi and I have been in this seventh level for almost three years. We haven’t been to any of the other passages. As for Demon Slaughter Mountain, we took the Physical Body Test passage back then, and we don’t know which level he’s in now.”

Back in the fifth level, Demon Slaughter Mountain had ambushed them once, inflicting serious injuries on Yu Jian.

But since then, the attackers seemed to have vanished, never returning to cause trouble.

Therefore, Yu Jian and his companion didn’t know which level Demon Slaughter Mountain was currently in.

“The Physical Body Test passage, huh? Thank you for informing me.”

Lu Qing nodded in thanks and then walked towards the teleportation array leading to the Physical Body Test passage.

“Fellow Daoist, please wait!”

Seeing Lu Qing’s actions, Yu Jian finally reacted and quickly called out.

Lu Qing stopped and turned back to ask, “Fellow Daoist Yu, is there anything else?”

“Fellow Daoist, are you planning to go to the Physical Body Trial Passage to seek trouble with Demon Slaughter Mountain?” Yu Jian inquired.

Qing Xi, standing beside him, also stared at Lu Qing with her mouth slightly agape, somewhat incredulous.

“Yes, I wish to go and settle some grudges with Demon Slaughter Mountain,” Lu Qing did not deny it.

“Fellow Daoist, I am not questioning your strength, but Demon Slaughter Mountain is not easy to deal with. Please think carefully,” Yu Jian advised.

“Thank you for your concern, but even if I am no match for Demon Slaughter Mountain, I am still somewhat confident in my ability to survive,”

Lu Qing nodded his thanks and stepped out, entering the teleportation array.

The next moment, a flash of light appeared, and his figure disappeared, heading towards the Physical Body Trial Passage.

“This Fifth Tribulation Nascent Soul cultivator actually dares to go and seek trouble with Demon Slaughter Mountain?”

Seeing Lu Qing actually go to the Physical Body Trial Passage, Qing Xi finally couldn’t help but exclaim softly.

Her eyes were filled with immense doubt.

She couldn’t understand where Lu Qing got the courage to go and settle scores with Demon Slaughter Mountain.

Admittedly, the speed he displayed initially was astonishing.

However, the trial passage they were currently in didn’t have very large spaces in each stage.

With limited space, their speed advantage was greatly restricted.

After all, at their level, any single Dao technique could cover most of the space.

Therefore, Qingxi couldn’t understand why Lu Qing would dare to go to Mo Tu Shan.

Just then, she saw Yu Jian’s expression change several times, and he also stepped forward, heading towards the teleportation array Lu Qing had just left.

“Senior Brother Yu Jian, are you going too?” Qingxi quickly asked.

“That’s right. We can’t just watch this fellow Daoist perish at Mo Tu Shan’s hands.”

Although Yu Jian sensed that Lu Qing was very mysterious and likely possessed many trump cards,

ultimately, the other party only had the cultivation of the fifth level of the Nascent Soul stage. Even with many trump cards, he couldn’t possibly be a match for Mo Tu Shan.

He couldn’t watch a powerful figure who seemed to possess the inheritance of their Breaking Heaven Sword Sect perish at the hands of evil heretics.

“That’s right. This fellow Daoist clearly possesses a rare treasure. If he falls into the hands of Demon Slaughter Mountain, things will be very bad.”

Although Qingxi felt that Lu Qing was overestimating himself, she didn’t want to see him die at Demon Slaughter Mountain’s hands.

That would undoubtedly greatly strengthen the demon’s foundation.

“Senior brother, let’s hurry over, or it might be too late.”

The two quickly stepped onto the teleportation array, and after a flash of light, their figures disappeared as well.

“Fortunately, they didn’t fight.”

In the Immortal Palace, the old Azure Dragon and the others were relieved to see this scene.

It wasn’t just because Lu Qing didn’t clash with Yu Jian and the other two, but also because they followed.

With Yu Jian and Qingxi there, even if they didn’t intervene, Lu Qing should be safe.

“These two little guys are not bad. When the secret realm closes, we can bestow some better opportunities upon them.”

The old Azure Dragon stroked his beard with his paw and said with a smile.

“They are indeed good. With them around, Demon Slaughter Mountain will have to be more cautious.” The black bull also said.

“It’s hard to say,” Mingfeng suddenly said. “Look, it seems that Demon Slaughter Mountain has help as well.”

“That’s true, this is troublesome.”

The black bull also saw the situation in the light screen and became anxious.

On the other side, Lu Qing had just teleported into the physical body passage through the teleportation array.

Before he could even observe his surroundings, he felt several sharp gazes pressing down on him.

He remained calm and looked ahead.

He saw three powerful figures standing in front of him, coldly watching him.

One of the burly figures was none other than Demon Slaughter Mountain.

“Boy, is that you?”

Demon Slaughter Mountain originally thought it was a powerful figure from one of the passages, but when he saw Lu Qing, he was stunned.

Even the other two figures showed surprise.

It’s no wonder they were surprised; in their view, Lu Qing couldn’t possibly be here.

Because no matter which trial passage’s seventh level, it shouldn’t be something a mere Fifth Tribulation Nascent Soul cultivator could enter.

However, after the surprise, a sinister smile appeared on Demon Slaughter Mountain’s face.

“Well, kid, it’s true what they say, ‘I’ve searched high and low, but I never expected to run into you here.’ Are you tired of living and have come here specifically to die?”

Although he didn’t know how Lu Qing had appeared here, Mo Tu Shan didn’t care.

As long as he captured this kid, he had ways to make him reveal all his secrets.

“Is that all you know?”

Lu Qing remained calm and coldly replied to the three powerful figures.

Just then, his expression suddenly changed, and he stepped aside.

Immediately afterward, the teleportation array he had come from emitted a burst of light, and two figures quickly appeared inside—Yu Jian and Qing Xi.

“It’s you two?”

Mo Tu Shan was stunned again upon seeing Yu Jian and Qing Xi, then a look of realization dawned on his face.

“So that’s it. This kid has you backing him up. No wonder he’s so fearless. What, you’re not going to be cowards anymore and are going to stand up for someone else?”

“Mo Tu Shan, Tao Yao Nu, and Hei Ming?”

Yu Jian and Qing Xi were equally surprised when they recognized the figures opposite them.

It turned out that besides Demon Slaughter Mountain, the other two figures were Peach Fairy from the Charming Fairy Pavilion and Black Netherworld Palace.

Unexpectedly, they had not only also reached the seventh level, but somehow they had also joined forces.

“This is troublesome!” Qingxi sensed something was wrong.

Originally, she and Yu Jian working together wouldn’t have had much difficulty dealing with Demon Slaughter Mountain.

But now, these evil heretics had inexplicably united.

In that case, they were at a disadvantage.

“Brother Yu Jian, long time no see.”

Upon seeing Yu Jian appear, Black Netherworld greeted him immediately.

However, Yu Jian ignored him, instead secretly transmitting his voice to his soul: “Fellow Daoist, as you can see, the enemy outnumbers us, and we are outnumbered. Perhaps we should retreat first?”

Lu Qing glanced at Yu Jian with some surprise .

He had already used his supernatural abilities to glean some basic information about Yu Jian, knowing that the other was an upright and incorruptible swordsman.

He hadn’t expected him to be urging him to retreat now.

However, he had finally found Demon Slaughter Mountain; how could he leave now?

So, after slightly shaking his head at Yu Jian, he took a step forward.

“You demon brat from the Black and White Temple, I’ve come here for no other reason than to kill you. Come out and face your death.”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s expression changed. (End of Chapter)
