I Can See Through All Things' Information Chapter 1235 - 757: Gathering at the Seventh Trial, Come Meet Your Doom (Part 2)
Previously on I Can See Through All Things' Information...
"I have a question I'd like to ask you two friends, if I may?" I inquired.
"Please, go right ahead," Yu Jian answered with politeness.
Even though Lu Qing’s origins were shrouded in mystery, Yu Jian sensed no malice from him at the moment.
Furthermore, since Lu Qing was at odds with Mo Tushan, Yu Jian was open to the idea of forming an alliance.
More importantly, there was something about Lu Qing that had sparked his curiosity for some time.
Because of this, he welcomed the chance to build a closer rapport with him.
"How long have you been stationed here at the seventh level? Have you explored the other routes, and do you happen to know which trial path Mo Tushan chose or what level he has reached?"
Lu Qing’s barrage of questions left Yu Jian momentarily dazed.
After a pause, he replied, "My junior sister Qing Xii and I have been stuck at this seventh level for nearly three years, so we haven't ventured through the other passages. As for Mo Tushan, he originally entered the Physical Body Trial path, but his current level is unknown to us."
Back on the fifth level, Mo Tushan had launched an ambush, inflicting significant injuries upon Yu Jian.
Since that encounter, however, the man seemed to have vanished, and he hadn't returned to cause further trouble.
Consequently, Yu Jian and his companion were unaware of Mo Tushan’s current progress.
"The Physical Body Trial path... thank you for the information."
Following this acknowledgment, Lu Qing nodded in thanks and began walking toward the transmission array that led to the Physical Body Trial.
"Friend, wait!"
Realizing what Lu Qing intended to do, Yu Jian finally snapped out of his daze and shouted.
Stopping in his tracks, Lu Qing turned and asked, "Friend Yu, is there something else?"
"Are you actually planning to enter the Physical Body Trial passage to hunt down Mo Tushan?" Yu Jian asked.
Standing beside him, Qing Xii’s mouth hung slightly open as she stared at Lu Qing with total disbelief.
"Yes, I intend to go there and settle some old scores with Mo Tushan," Lu Qing admitted without hesitation.
"Friend, I don't mean to doubt your capabilities, but Mo Tushan is a dangerous opponent. I urge you to reconsider," Yu Jian cautioned.
"I appreciate your concern, but even if I cannot defeat Mo Tushan, I am confident in my ability to survive."
With a final nod of gratitude, Lu Qing stepped into the transmission array.
In an instant, the light flared, and his form vanished as he was transported toward the Physical Body passage.
"Does this Five Tribulation Primordial Spirit truly intend to pick a fight with Mo Tushan?"
Seeing Lu Qing actually depart for the Physical Body passage, Qing Xii finally let out a soft exclamation.
Her eyes were filled with pure bewilderment.
She simply could not fathom where Lu Qing found the nerve to challenge Mo Tushan.
It was true that the speed he had displayed previously was breathtaking.
However, in these trial passages, the space at each level was quite confined.
In such a small area, the advantage of high speed would be severely limited.
After all, at their level of Cultivation, a single Daoist Skill could likely blanket the entire room.
Thus, Qing Xii remained baffled by Lu Qing’s boldness.
Just then, she noticed Yu Jian’s expression shift several times before he, too, stepped toward the transmission array Lu Qing had just used.
"Brother Yu Jian, are you going as well?" Qing Xii asked quickly.
"I am. I cannot simply stand by and watch this friend die at Mo Tushan’s hands."
While Yu Jian believed Lu Qing was mysterious and likely possessed many hidden cards.
Ultimately, the man only possessed a Five Tribulation Primordial Spirit Cultivation. No matter his tricks, he couldn't possibly defeat Mo Tushan.
He refused to let a powerful cultivator, who seemed to bear the legacy of the Sky-breaking Sword Sect, fall to a demonic practitioner.
"It’s true; that friend clearly possesses an Exotic Treasure. If it falls into Mo Tushan’s possession, it would be a disaster."
Although Qing Xii felt Lu Qing was being reckless, she didn't want him to perish either.
Such an outcome would only strengthen that demon's foundation.
"Brother, let us move quickly, or we might be too late."
The pair hurried into the array, and with a flash of light, they were gone.
"Fortunately, a fight didn't break out."
Within the Immortal Palace, Old Azure Dragon and the others finally felt a sense of relief watching the scene.
This was not just because Lu Qing avoided a clash with Yu Jian and Qing Xii, but because they had followed him.
With the two of them present, Lu Qing should be safe even if they didn't directly interfere.
"These two youngsters have good hearts. Once the secret realm shuts down, we should grant them some opportunities," Old Azure Dragon remarked, stroking his beard with a claw and smiling.
"Agreed. With them there, Mo Tushan will have to stay his hand," Black Bull added.
"Perhaps not," Ming Feng cut in suddenly. "Look, it seems Mo Tushan has reinforcements of his own."
"That is indeed true; this has become problematic."
Black Bull looked at the light screen and immediately grew anxious.
Elsewhere, Lu Qing had emerged from the transmission array and arrived at the Physical Body passage.
Before he could even survey his new surroundings, several sharp, heavy gazes locked onto him.
Unperturbed, he looked forward.
Standing there were three formidable figures, all watching him with cold eyes.
One of them, a massive, burly man, could only be Mo Tushan.
"Brat, is that you?"
Mo Tushan had expected a powerhouse from another passage, so seeing Lu Qing left him stunned.
The two figures beside him also looked surprised.
Their shock was warranted; in their eyes, Lu Qing had no business being there.
A mere Five Tribulation Primordial Spirit should never have been able to reach the seventh level of any trial.
However, Mo Tushan’s surprise quickly turned into a mocking sneer.
"Well now, brat. I thought you’d be hard to track down, but here you are. Have you grown tired of living? Did you come here specifically to die?"
Mo Tushan didn't care how Lu Qing had managed to arrive.
Once he captured the boy, he had plenty of ways to force every secret out of him.
"Is that the best you can do?"
Facing three elite experts, Lu Qing remained composed and spoke with a chilling tone.
Suddenly, his expression shifted, and he leaped to the side.
Immediately after, the transmission array glowed again, and Yu Jian and Qing Xii stepped out.
"You two?"
Seeing the newcomers, Mo Tushan was surprised once more, but then a look of understanding crossed his face.
"I see. This brat has you two backing him. No wonder he’s so arrogant. What’s this? Are you cowards finally deciding to play the hero?"
"Mo Tushan, the Peach Demoness, and Hei Ming?"
Yu Jian and Qing Xii were horrified as they identified the figures across from them.
Aside from Mo Tushan, the other two were the Peach Fairy from the Pavilion of the Enchanting Immortal and Hei Ming from the Netherworld Palace.
It was unexpected that they had not only reached the seventh level but had also formed a group.
"This is bad!" Qing Xii felt a wave of dread.
Together, she and Yu Jian could have handled Mo Tushan alone.
But with these three demonic experts allied, they were now at a severe disadvantage.
"Brother Yu Jian, it has been a long time," Hei Ming greeted him.
Yu Jian ignored the greeting, instead sending a Divine Soul transmission: "Friend, you see the situation. They have the numbers and we are outmatched. Should we retreat?"
Lu Qing looked at Yu Jian, feeling slightly surprised.
He had used his Superpower to learn about Yu Jian and knew he was a principled Sword Cultivator.
He hadn't expected the man to suggest a retreat now.
But since he had finally cornered Mo Tushan, how could he possibly leave?
Giving Yu Jian a small shake of his head, Lu Qing stepped forward.
"Demon child of the Black and White Temple, I have come here for one reason: to kill you. Step forward and meet your end."
As those words left his lips, the expressions of everyone present changed instantly.
