I Can See Through All Things' Information Chapter 1191 - 735: Astonishing Speed, Effortless Mockery
Previously on I Can See Through All Things' Information...
Lu Qing felt a sense of helplessness at the unexpected turn of events.
He had been meticulous and wary in his preparations.
Yet, no matter how much one prepares, man proposes but heaven disposes; he could not have anticipated such a sudden crisis erupting before him.
The incoming strike felt terrifying, possessing overwhelming power that seemed to ignore the heavy suppression of the secret realm.
Lu Qing realized that concealing his true capabilities was no longer an option.
When more than ten Five Tribulations Primordial Spirit experts launch a coordinated assault, even a top-tier Primordial Spirit cannot simply brush it aside.
Furthermore, this was a combined attack from the elite disciples of the most renowned sects beneath the stars.
Despite Lu Qing’s formidable current strength, meeting such a blow head-on would not be easy.
Under the heavy weight of the crisis, Lu Qing’s body blurred like a wisp of smoke, and at the ultimate moment, he soared upward to escape the reach of that devastating power.
The cultivators fleeing ahead of him, however, were not as fortunate.
The disciples of the Black and White Temple had originally aimed their fury at them.
In the wake of that explosive energy, even those who shared the Five Tribulations Primordial Spirit cultivation level found resistance nearly impossible.
In a mere heartbeat, they were battered into submission and collapsed to the earth.
"Hmm?"
Demon Tu Shan, who had been watching from the rear with a look of contempt, was initially surprised by the sight, but his eyes soon gleamed upon spotting Lu Qing.
"Brat, it’s you! I’ve searched everywhere only to have you fall right into my lap. I assumed you were cowering in some dark corner, yet you actually have the nerve to show your face here!"
The moment he finished speaking, Demon Tu Shan’s body lunged forward, hurtling toward Lu Qing.
He didn't stop to wonder why Lu Qing had suddenly appeared, knowing only that the youth was exceptionally slippery.
If he wasn't careful, the boy might find a way to vanish once more.
The peak power of an Eight Tribulations Primordial Spirit is truly formidable.
Even with the secret realm's restrictive laws, his burst of speed remained shockingly fast.
Within a single breath, he moved like a passing shadow, closing the gap until he was less than a hundred feet from Lu Qing.
Yet, despite Demon Tu Shan’s frightening velocity, Lu Qing’s expression did not waver.
With an indifferent gaze, he simply shifted a step backward.
His form moved with the swiftness of a lightning bolt, matching Demon Tu Shan’s pace perfectly.
"What?!"
Demon Tu Shan was stunned to see Lu Qing keeping up with him.
How could a brat radiating only the aura of a Five Tribulations cultivator possess speed equal to his own?
Refusing to accept this, Demon Tu Shan’s aura flared as he surged with renewed energy.
His speed spiked dramatically as he lunged toward Lu Qing.
However, as Demon Tu Shan accelerated, Lu Qing also increased his pace abruptly.
He remained a fraction faster than Demon Tu Shan, widening the gap between them once again.
"This is impossible!"
Demon Tu Shan’s eyes bulged, unable to believe that even after exerting over eighty percent of his power, he couldn't overtake this Five Tribulations Primordial Spirit kid!
"Is that kid’s speed actually comparable to Senior Brother Tu Shan?"
The other disciples of the Black and White Temple were just as shocked.
They watched the two figures race across the massive square like twin streaks of light, with the distance between them remaining unchanged.
It was inconceivable that Senior Brother Tu Shan, an Eight Tribulations Primordial Spirit at the peak of his power, could not catch a mere Five Tribulations cultivator.
"Who is that person, capable of maintaining such a chase under Demon Tu Shan’s pursuit?"
Elsewhere, the commotion drew the attention of other factions who had emerged to investigate; they were equally stunned by the spectacle.
They immediately identified one of the figures as Demon Tu Shan from the Black and White Temple.
The other figure, despite not projecting a powerful aura, moved with a speed that was in no way inferior to his pursuer.
"Senior Brother Yu Jian, that is the cultivator you protected earlier," Qing Xii of the Kongming Sect remarked quietly.
"It is indeed him. I didn't realize my help was unnecessary at the time. With speed like that, Demon Tu Shan might never have touched him even if I hadn't stepped in," Yu Jian said with a soft sigh.
"But how can a simple Five Tribulations Primordial Spirit achieve such speed within the secret realm?" Qing Xii asked.
They were well aware that the oppressive force in this realm was terrifyingly strong, making the space itself feel stagnant and heavy.
Even Eight Tribulations Primordial Spirits felt restricted.
This environment significantly suppressed the power and speed of their Daoist Magical Treasures.
Logic dictated that weaker Primordial Spirits should suffer even greater suppression.
Yet, this mysterious Five Tribulations Primordial Spirit was moving as fast as Demon Tu Shan. It defied all reason.
Yu Jian thought for a moment before replying, "He likely possesses some Exotic Treasure. Anyone brave enough to enter this secret realm alone must have something to rely on."
Qing Xii considered this and found it to be a logical explanation.
Without some hidden trump card, wandering this secret realm alone would be a death wish.
"Regardless, Demon Tu Shan is likely to lose quite a bit of face today," Qing Xii said with a sudden laugh.
"Those of the Demon Path have no sense of shame anyway. Seeing him humiliated is a good thing, but we should keep watch to ensure this fellow Daoist doesn't actually fall into his clutches," Yu Jian stated calmly.
He had already begun to refer to Lu Qing as a fellow Daoist.
"True. I find this fellow Daoist’s aura to be pure and righteous, without a hint of malice; he is clearly a member of our Righteous path," Qing Xii added with a slight nod.
