I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 803

Chapter 802 Threat, Undercurrents Stir Again

The Xuan Tu Golden Dragon clan is naturally favored by the Earth and Metal elemental Daos, possessing formidable physical strength and fierce attacks.

Their powerful talents allow them to automatically break through to the Nascent Soul Realm upon reaching adulthood, even without cultivation. They

are born superior to countless other races.

However, this innate talent also makes their understanding of Daos beyond their natural abilities relatively weak.

For example, the golden-eyed middle-aged man suppressed by Lu Qing with one hand, although a Dao Integration Realm expert,

is not adept at understanding the Dao of Space, lacking the exquisite movement techniques of Luo Yuantian.

Consequently, he was caught off guard and Lu Qing closed in, pressing down on his shoulder.

Sensing the changes in the golden-eyed middle-aged man’s body and his suddenly increased power, Lu Qing remained completely calm.

The [Great Strength] divine power seed within him trembled, and a surge of divine power flowed, instantly pinning down the struggling golden-eyed middle-aged man once again, rendering him immobile.

Even his evolving physical body was forcibly suppressed, reverting to its original state and unable to continue its transformation.

This press directly shocked the golden-eyed middle-aged man.

He felt Lu Qing’s hand pressing on his shoulder as heavy as the heavens and earth.

Even with his divine sense clone, which possessed the perfected ninth tribulation of the primordial spirit, he couldn’t break free at all.

It should be noted that as a member of the Xuan Tu Golden Dragon clan, strength was his greatest talent.

Even his divine sense clone possessed a physical body far stronger than other clones at the Dao Integration Realm.

But now, he was being suppressed by an eighth tribulation primordial spirit cultivator; how could he not be utterly shocked?

“Don’t struggle anymore,”

Lu Qing said calmly, seeing that the golden-eyed middle-aged man seemed to still want to struggle.

“The Xuan Tu Golden Dragon clan, though blessed with naturally powerful physical bodies, your divine consciousness avatar is far too weak. You are no match for me. If you move again, I’ll crush you.”

With that, Lu Qing slightly tightened his grip, and the golden-eyed middle-aged man immediately felt an indescribable, immense force emanating from Lu Qing’s palm, almost crushing his entire body.

He immediately dared not struggle any longer.

Seeing this, Lu Qing nodded in satisfaction.

As for the group of demon kings on the periphery, they were already dumbfounded.

They hadn’t expected that their “Emperor” would be so easily held by Lu Qing, unable to move.

This demon was far more terrifying than the Golden Lion King and the others had described!

“It’s over!”

Even the Golden Lion King was filled with fear.

Although he had experienced Lu Qing’s terror and understood that his ability to escape unscathed from the siege of the Holy Mountain elders meant his strength was far greater than he had imagined

, he still never expected that even his “Emperor’s” divine consciousness was no match for Lu Qing.

With a mere flick of his wrist, he was completely subdued and unable to move.

“Who exactly are you?”

The middle-aged man with golden eyes, being a powerful cultivator at the Dao Integration Realm, quickly calmed down after his initial bewilderment and stared at Lu Qing, asking.

At this moment, Lu Qing was no longer an Eighth Tribulation Nascent Soul in his eyes, but some terrifying existence that even he couldn’t fathom.

“Who I am is not important. What’s important is that, as I just said, I’ve come here to collect a debt. Now, can we have a proper talk?”

Lu Qing said gently.

But the middle-aged man with golden eyes felt a chill creep into his heart upon hearing this.

He gave a bitter smile: “Do I still have the right to refuse?”

“No.” Lu Qing shook his head, “If you refuse, I’ll first crush this divine sense avatar of yours, then destroy that capital city below, and ruin this holy city in the hearts of your demon race.”

Although Lu Qing spoke calmly, the middle-aged man with golden eyes could tell that Lu Qing wasn’t just making empty promises; this guy really meant what he said.

And he understood that the other party definitely had such strength.

With a quick thought, the golden-eyed middle-aged man soon came to terms with reality.

“You say you’re demanding a debt? How much compensation do you expect from our demon race to settle this score?”

“Good, straightforward,” Lu Qing praised. “My demands aren’t high. Your demon race’s compensation will be the same as the Holy Alliance’s: 300,000 high-grade spirit stones and 100 top-grade spirit stones.”

“300,000 high-grade spirit stones!”

Upon hearing this number, the golden-eyed middle-aged man’s eyes widened.

If he hadn’t been suppressed by Lu Qing, he probably would have jumped up.

The demon kings on the periphery also trembled upon hearing Lu Qing’s words, all terrified by the figure.

But it was precisely the boundless, heavy suppressive force on their shoulders that calmed the golden-eyed middle-aged man’s excited heart. A bitter smile appeared   on his face

. “Fellow Daoist, your request is far too outrageous. Even if we gathered all the resources of our entire demon race, we couldn’t possibly gather that many high-grade and top-grade spirit stones for you.” “Is that so? In that case, then you can all die.”   Lu Qing ignored the man’s sophistry. He tightened his grip, and instantly, cracking sounds echoed from the golden-eyed middle-aged man’s body.   More than ten bones were shattered, and multiple cracks appeared in his flesh.   It seemed as if he would be truly crushed at any moment.   ”Fellow Daoist, wait!”   Seeing that Lu Qing was about to get serious, the golden-eyed middle-aged man immediately shouted.   Lu Qing stopped, but looked at the golden-eyed middle-aged man coldly.   It was as if he intended to crush him immediately if he made any further excuses.   Seeing this, the golden-eyed middle-aged man secretly groaned.   How could this guy be so decisive? Generally speaking, aren’t humans supposed to start with exorbitant prices and then negotiate?   How come he doesn’t even offer any room for negotiation? If anything goes wrong, he’ll really kill him.   The golden-eyed middle-aged man wasn’t reluctant to part with his divine consciousness clone.   He feared that after his death, Lu Qing would truly unleash a massacre.   In that case, their demon race would face annihilation.   Thinking of this, the golden-eyed middle-aged man finally made up his mind.   Spirit stones could be earned back, but once the capital was destroyed and all the demon elites inside perished, their demon race would truly be finished.   What use would spirit stones be then?   ”Fellow Daoist, I can grant your request, but you’ve asked for too many spirit stones; we’ll need some time to gather them.”

The middle-aged man with golden eyes sighed.

“One day,” Lu Qing said, raising a finger with his other hand. “I’m only giving you one day to gather the spirit stones and deliver them to me. If you dare to play tricks, it won’t be as simple as destroying the capital. I will slaughter your entire demon race. You should know whether I have the ability.”

As his words fell, a boundless killing intent emanated from Lu Qing, enveloping all the surrounding demon kings.

Instantly, all the demon kings felt as if they were trapped in a sea of killing intent.

Terrifying illusions surged within their souls, and they almost lost their footing, falling from the sky.

The middle-aged man with golden eyes wasn’t affected by Lu Qing’s killing intent, but seeing the coldness in Lu Qing’s eyes, he couldn’t help but tremble.

He understood that their demon race had truly provoked an unimaginable evil star this time. What were those useless people, the Golden Lion King and his gang, good for? They hadn’t even investigated the enemy’s background before daring to wade into such troubled waters.

Although he cursed the Golden Lion King and his gang in his heart, the middle-aged man with golden eyes could only suppress his emotions and nod.

“Alright, just one day. Fellow Daoist, you must keep your promise. Within this day, you must not lay a hand on my demon race.”

“Don’t worry, I’m always a person of my word,” Lu Qing said.

He then withdrew his hand, releasing the middle-aged man with golden eyes from his suppression, not worried at all that he would take the opportunity to escape.

At the same time, he also withdrew the killing intent from his body.

But the group of demon kings seemed to be mentally captivated and did not immediately wake up.

Feeling the boundless pressure on his body disappear and his body return to ease, the middle-aged man with golden eyes felt no joy whatsoever.

In that brief encounter, he realized that the demon’s physical body was far more powerful than his own divine sense avatar.

Coupled with the demon’s spatial comprehension, which was no less than his own, if Lu Qing truly intended to annihilate the demon race, he would have no way to stop him.

“What kind of monster is this? How can it possess such terrifying strength in the Great World?”

the golden-eyed middle-aged man mused, bewildered.

Logically, their divine sense avatars at the Dao Integration Realm should be invincible in the Great World.

Why then did a freak like Lu Qing appear, whose strength could completely overwhelm his avatar?

However, no matter how incomprehensible he was, the golden-eyed middle-aged man dared not delay.

He turned to the demon kings on the periphery, angrily shouting, “Didn’t you hear me? Get out of here and gather spirit stones for me! If you don’t gather enough spirit stones within a day, I won’t bother with you bunch of trash anymore!”

The other demon kings then seemed to wake from a dream, looking at Lu Qing with fear, but daring not to utter a single word.

The killing intent emanating from this demon was simply too terrifying.

Even with their fifth-stage or higher primordial spirits, they were completely unable to resist and were about to fall into illusions.

If a real fight broke out, the opponent wouldn’t even need to make a move; the mere killing intent would be enough to annihilate their primordial spirits.

Therefore, upon hearing the “Emperor’s” order to collect spirit stones, not a single demon king dared to object.

After bowing in agreement, they all used spatial teleportation techniques to try and gather spirit stones.

Even the golden-eyed middle-aged man, after a moment’s thought, disappeared and headed further away.

With those useless people’s spatial abilities, it was impossible for them to travel throughout the demon realm in a day; he had to do it.

Without his intervention, it wouldn’t be easy to obtain the spirit stones accumulated by the demon kings who hadn’t yet resurrected.

As the golden-eyed middle-aged man and the group of demon kings disappeared, only one figure remained in the sky.

Lu Qing’s gaze fell upon the other party; it was none other than the Golden Lion Emperor.

Having just been resurrected, his cultivation was only at the initial stage of the primordial spirit realm, making it impossible for him to use spatial teleportation techniques.

Sensing Lu Qing’s gaze, the Golden Lion Emperor’s body trembled.

Before Lu Qing could speak, he hurriedly said, “Your Excellency, my Golden Lion clan has a considerable amount of spirit stones. I will go and fetch them for you right now!”

Without waiting for Lu Qing’s reply, he immediately transformed into a streak of light and flew towards the capital below.

He was afraid that if he was even a little slow, Lu Qing would object and deny him this chance.

After all, he had attacked this man on Tian Sheng Peak.

Having already been resurrected once, if this physical body were also killed, he would truly perish completely and be unable to resurrect again.

Watching the Golden Lion King’s hasty escape, Lu Qing did not make a move.

To him now, the strength of these demon kings was insignificant.

Since they were willing to exchange spirit stones for their lives, he didn’t mind giving them a chance to live.

Casually conjuring a lucky cloud, Lu Qing sat cross-legged on it, quietly awaiting the return of the demons.

As for whether these demon kings would cheat, he didn’t care.

He had already given them a chance; if these demon kings were truly so ungrateful, he wouldn’t mind erasing the capital from the Tianyuan Great World.

Moreover, he had already memorized the auras of those demon kings.

Having cultivated the [Purple Star Destiny Scripture], even if these demon kings fled to the ends of the earth, he would find a way to track them down.

Then, he would show them what true hell was.

While Lu Qing sat cross-legged on auspicious clouds, awaiting the return of the demons, the entire Tianyuan Great World was also in turmoil.

The battle at Tian Sheng Peak had caused terrifying shockwaves.

Furthermore, many cultivators had witnessed Lu Qing annihilate a group of demon kings and Holy Alliance elders.

Such a shocking event could not be concealed.

Therefore, after several days of brewing, the news finally spread rapidly throughout almost the entire human territory.

This included the mysterious and unpredictable Netherworld Palace.

In a mysterious place, in a dark palace exuding a strange Daoist aura, several powerful figures were gathering together.

“Is the news accurate? Were the Holy Alliance elders truly slaughtered?”

a black-robed elder asked, his tone tinged with uncertainty.

“Absolutely accurate. This is footage secretly recorded by our people using a recording stone.”

Another figure took out a recording stone and projected a light screen into the air.

The image on the screen changed, showing Lu Qing slaying a group of demon kings and Holy Alliance elders on Tian Sheng Peak.

Watching Lu Qing punch two Eighth Tribulation Demon Emperors and kill more than ten demon kings with a single sword strike,

then transform into a thousand-foot giant and swatting away the Holy Alliance elders like mosquitoes, the

black-robed elder and the others couldn’t help but gasp in shock.

Even through the image, they could feel the overwhelming ferocity emanating from the so-called “demon.”

“One punch shatters an Eighth Tribulation Demon Emperor, even a Ninth Tribulation Nascent Soul cultivator can’t withstand a single move, and Luo Yuantian’s divine sense avatar couldn’t do anything to him and had to admit defeat—who exactly is this person?”

After a long while, the black-robed elder couldn’t help but ask.

“I’ve already checked. This person should be Chen Qing, who became famous decades ago in the battle at Tian Shu Divine Mountain, and who, with his Golden Core body, reversed the fate of many human primordial spirits,” another figure said.

“However, Chen Qing is likely an alias. This person is proficient in transformation techniques and has used multiple identities while traveling in the Tianyuan Great World. He even infiltrated our Netherworld Palace as an outer assassin.”

“Furthermore, the mysterious cultivator who triggered the strange heavenly tribulation in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains decades ago could very well be him.”

The Netherworld Palace, as expected of one of the most well-informed forces, has investigated Lu Qing’s affairs quite thoroughly.

“You mean, this person only just underwent the Nascent Soul Tribulation decades ago?”

The black-robed elder was greatly shocked and asked in disbelief. (End of Chapter)
