I Can See Through All Things' Information Chapter 1253 - 767: Greed Arises, Battle Against a 9-Tribulation Opponent! (Part 2)
Previously on I Can See Through All Things' Information...
"Clan Leader!"
While the middle-aged man adorned in the Purple Dragon Robe was still gripped by uncertainty, an Elder from the Great Origin Immortal Clan hurried toward him.
Utilizing Divine Soul Transmission, the Elder rapidly caught him up on every significant event that had recently transpired.
As the details sank in, the expression of the man in the Purple Dragon Robe turned increasingly grave while his gaze shifted toward Lu Qing’s position.
"A Nine Tribulations of Primordial Spirit from the Great Origin Immortal Clan?"
Lu Qing, meanwhile, had already perceived the information regarding the middle-aged man standing before him.
A flicker of astonishment crossed his features.
He hadn't anticipated encountering a Nine Tribulations Primordial Spirit here. He pondered whether the man had reached this stage long ago or if he had successfully broken through after finding lucky chances within this realm.
Furthermore, he recalled that the Great Origin Immortal Clan once governed the Great Origin Immortal Domain. It was unexpected to see them participating in the exploration of this secret realm.
Since entering the secret realm, the members of the Great Origin Immortal Clan had been hiding within a secluded, minor temple.
Because of this, Lu Qing had never crossed paths with them until now. He was genuinely surprised that their leader possessed the strength of a Nine Tribulations Primordial Spirit.
As for the surrounding experts, they finally sensed his cultivation level through the unmasked aura of the man in the Purple Dragon Robe, leaving them utterly stunned.
The Nine Tribulations of Primordial Spirit!
The leader of the Great Origin Immortal Clan had actually achieved a breakthrough inside the secret realm, ascending to the height of the Nine Tribulations of Primordial Spirit!
Jealousy surged through many of the powerful cultivators present.
This was the legendary Nine Tribulations of Primordial Spirit!
They could only wonder what kind of immense serendipity this old man had stumbled upon to finally cross that formidable threshold and reach such a state.
By comparison, although they had gathered their own rewards within the secret realm, their gains paled in the face of such an achievement.
Noticing the awe-filled looks from the experts around him, the man in the Purple Dragon Robe finally allowed a hint of pride to show.
He was certain that starting today, the renown of the Great Origin Immortal Clan would once again resonate throughout the lands.
No organization would ever dare to look down on them again.
Once he eventually transitioned into the Unity Realm Stage, the Great Origin Immortal Clan would truly return to its former glory!
Unlike the shocked onlookers, Lu Qing remained perfectly composed.
Given his current level of power, there were few within the Primordial Spirit Realm who could pose a genuine threat to him.
Even a cultivator at the Nine Tribulations stage was no exception.
Thus, meeting the gaze of the man in the Purple Dragon Robe, he gave a simple, slight nod and prepared to depart.
Seeing Lu Qing treat him with such indifference, the man in the Purple Dragon Robe narrowed his eyes.
His mood was already sour, and this perceived slight immediately fueled his irritation.
"Boy, halt right there!" the middle-aged man in the Purple Dragon Robe commanded frostily. "I have questions for you!"
Stopping in his tracks, Lu Qing turned back and asked coolly, "What is it?"
"Did you kill those disciples from the Black and White Temple?"
"I did. What of it? Do you intend to act as their protector?" Lu Qing answered without emotion.
"You certainly have some nerve, kid." The man in the Purple Dragon Robe lifted an eyebrow. "Your feud with the Black and White Temple is none of my concern, but I have heard rumors that you possess an Exotic Treasure that allows you to move with incredible speed here.
Surrender that Exotic Treasure to me, and I will act as though I never saw you. What do you think?"
"So, it's my Exotic Treasure you're after," Lu Qing remarked with a thin smile. "And if I choose to refuse?"
He saw through the man immediately; this Nine Tribulations Primordial Spirit was merely using any excuse to rob him of his possessions.
The other onlookers grew excited as they watched the confrontation, their faces filled with anticipation.
Lu Qing was an enigma with unfathomable Cultivation and peerless Sword Qi. He had already proven that even a Seven Tribulation Primordial Spirit could not survive a single strike from him.
But on the opposing side stood the Clan Leader of the Great Origin Immortal Clan—a powerhouse of the Nine Tribulations!
In the Primordial Spirit Realm, reaching the Nine Tribulations means one's understanding of the laws has reached a profound depth.
A single step further leads to the Divine Sense Path, where one merges their Heart and Spirit with the Great Dao.
By using Divine Thought to harness a fragment of the Power of the Great Path, one enters the legendary Harmonization Realm.
In the current age, why are the Sky-breaking Sword Sect and the Black and White Temple considered sacred and untouchable?
It is because these peak Sects are protected by masters of the Unity Realm Stage.
With the era of Transformation Immortals having passed, the Unity Realm represents the absolute peak of existence under the stars!
Any Sect guarded by a Unity Realm expert is a true Holy Land.
However, Unity Realm masters rarely leave their Sects in their true forms and are restricted from entering many worlds, making them rare sights.
In contrast, a Nine Tribulations Primordial Spirit is not bound by such limitations and can travel the starry skies as they wish.
Nevertheless, most at this level are focused on breaking through to the Unity Realm and remain in deep seclusion, making them nearly as rare as the Unity Realm experts themselves.
Now that the gathered experts saw a Nine Tribulations Primordial Spirit not only appearing but preparing to fight Lu Qing, their excitement was palpable.
One side was a peak expert of the Primordial Spirit Realm, while the other was a mysterious Sword Cultivator whose limits had yet to be seen.
The battle between these two was bound to be magnificent!
"If you refuse to hand it over, I will simply seize you. I imagine the Black and White Temple would pay a king's ransom in treasures to have you in their hands."
As he spoke, the robes of the man in the Purple Dragon Robe billowed violently despite the lack of wind.
A draconic roar thundered through the air as a serpent of purple lightning, conjured by his power, lunged toward Lu Qing.
"The fight is starting!"
The observers widened their eyes, determined to witness every heartbeat of the conflict.
The purple Serpent crackled with electricity, moving at a velocity that defied logic.
Even with the heavy suppression of the secret realm, it reached Lu Qing in a mere instant.
Yet, just as the lightning claws were about to tear through Lu Qing's form,
Lu Qing's body dissolved into nothingness, vanishing like a cloud of smoke.
"An illusion? But when?!"
The crowd gasped in shock; not a single person had seen how Lu Qing managed to escape.
The man in the Purple Dragon Robe frowned as he unleashed a massive wave of Primordial Spirit Power, scanning the entire square in an attempt to pin down Lu Qing's location.
The pressure exerted by a Nine Tribulations Primordial Spirit was immense. The surrounding cultivators felt as though a physical mountain was crushing them.
Their expressions turned to horror as they truly understood the terrifying power of a Nine Tribulations expert.
"He isn't here?"
After searching for a moment, the face of the man in the Purple Dragon Robe darkened.
He could find no trace of Lu Qing anywhere.
"Are you searching for me?"
A calm, steady voice suddenly drifted down from above.
"He's in the sky!"
"When did he get up there?"
"How can he possibly fly?"
The experts looked up in unison, discovering Lu Qing hovering high in the air, looking down at the crowd below.
The sight left everyone speechless, their faces masks of pure disbelief.
It was a known fact that within the Returning Ruins Secret Realm, the space was incredibly dense, and a strange Rule Power suppressed all flight.
Even an Eight Tribulations Primordial Spirit was forced to stay on the ground, unable to use any Flying Skill.
And yet, Lu Qing was standing in mid-air right before them. The shock was overwhelming.
"Is this more of that Magical Treasure's power?"
The man in the Purple Dragon Robe’s expression grew grim.
Despite his Nine Tribulations cultivation, he was grounded by the realm's laws. He hadn't expected his opponent to have such an advantage.
With the ability to fly, his enemy could engage or retreat at whim, making him practically invincible.
He wondered what kind of treasure could possibly bypass the fundamental rules of this secret realm!
For a moment, he was consumed by greed, desperate to capture Lu Qing and claim that treasure for himself.
"Boy, running and hiding is no sign of skill. If you have the guts, come down and face me properly!"
The man in the Purple Dragon Robe bellowed toward the sky.
Upon hearing this, many of the other cultivators gave him strange looks.
It was pathetic for a renowned Nine Tribulations Primordial Spirit to resort to such taunts.
However, to everyone's surprise, Lu Qing actually nodded.
"Very well, I shall grant you a battle."
"Indeed, given your realm, you are worthy of witnessing this particular move of mine."
