A shout shocked the soul.
The person who asked the question was a supreme elder of the Yuanshen realm from the Lanhai Sect, a tall old man wearing a sea-blue robe.
Everyone turned their eyes to Lu Qing to see how he would respond.
Especially those powerful souls, they have already learned from their disciples what Lu Qing did in the secret realm.
What's more, he actually dared to shake away their spiritual power just now.
For a moment, all the powerful spirits became very interested in him.
"As expected, I have become the target of public criticism."
"Is this what you said? To become a qualified witch, one must go through wind and rain, Senior? But this wind and rain is a little too violent."
Feeling the pressure gathering on him, Lu Qing's expression remained unchanged, but he sighed inwardly.
The person in the secret realm, whether intentionally or unintentionally, actually teleported him directly under the noses of so many people in the Yuanshen realm.
His original plan of changing his disguise and then sneaking away among the casual cultivators was completely ruined.
Based on his performance in the secret realm, Lu Qing didn't even have to think about what he would face next.
Fortunately...
Lu Qing's spiritual power probed into the Qiankun Yiqi bag and sensed the stone tablet he had just obtained. When he found that he could activate it, he immediately felt much more relaxed.
With this trump card in hand, the current situation will be much easier to deal with.
If things really cannot be done, the worst that can happen is that we can just go back to the secret realm.
Although it is a bit embarrassing to go back right after coming out, compared with life, a little face is totally insignificant.
"Xiao Li, please hide in the Qiankun Qi Bag first."
Lu Qing did not respond to the words from the Yuanshen realm, but instead sent a message to Xiao Li, and then put it into the Qiankun Yiqi bag.
Seeing this scene, many Jindan realm powerhouses who had entered the secret realm were shocked.
Just now they were all paying attention to Lu Qing, but now seeing Xiao Li disappear, they remembered the amazing performance of this little spirit beast on the Bone Mountain.
Immediately, many people began to convey the message to their senior teachers.
And when he heard his disciples say that the little spirit beast was most likely an alien species with ancient blood.
The eyes of some Yuanshen realm people lit up again.
The same was true for the Grand Elder of Lanhai Sect who asked the question.
In addition, when he saw that Lu Qing ignored his questions and didn't even respond, his eyes suddenly became cold.
"How dare you be so arrogant, young man! If I don't teach you a lesson, you really think that there is no one in my Lanhai Sect!"
As soon as the words fell, a huge magical hand condensed and grabbed Lu Qing.
When a powerful Yuanshen takes action, it is naturally extraordinary.
When this magical hand came out, it immediately suppressed the space in all directions. The power it exuded made all the strong men below the Yuanshen realm change color.
People like Qin Zheng and Ye Qingzhu were extremely nervous and worried about Lu Qing.
"We still have to face the Yuan Shen realm in the end."
Feeling the pressure from the magical hand, Lu Qing was not panicked, but instead a fighting spirit rose in his heart.
"Wait a minute!"
Just when Lu Qing was about to explode and weigh the true power of the Yuanshen realm.
Suddenly, another giant magical palm appeared from the side and blocked the attack of the Lanhai Sect's Grand Elder.
boom!
The clash of the two giant magical palms caused the surrounding spiritual energy to riot. The terrifying power burst out, causing the nearby space to shake.
The violent fluctuations of spiritual energy made Lu Qing's clothes rustle, but it couldn't make him move at all.
"Um?"
Lu Qing's expression changed and he looked at the person who tried to stop him.
"Ba Chunqiu, what do you mean?"
The Grand Elder of Lanhai Sect was startled at first, but when he saw clearly who was trying to stop him, his eyes fixed and he said with some fear.
It turned out that the one who stopped the attack of the Grand Elder of Lanhai Sect was actually the powerful elder of the Overlord Clan, Ba Chunqiu.
When the other powerful Yuanshen realm masters saw this scene, they were stunned at first, and then they all showed interesting expressions.
People like Qin Zheng and Ye Qingzhu were excited.
They didn't expect that the powerful soul of the Overlord Clan would actually help Lu Qing.
Even Lu Qing himself was surprised.
He looked at where the Tyrant Clan was, and saw Tyrant, who was smiling. When he saw him looking at him, he even nodded.
Obviously, it should be him who asked the elders of his own family for help.
"I don't mean anything. I just can't bear to see you relying on your cultivation level to attack a junior in the Jindan realm."
Ba Chunqiu, a middle-aged man from the Overlord Clan who was also tall, said calmly.
"You should have heard it just now. This young man dared to rob my Lanhai Sect's disciples in the secret realm and beat them so badly that they almost died. If I don't punish him for such evil behavior, where will the face of our Lanhai Sect be?"
The Grand Elder of Lanhai Sect suppressed his anger.
"Really? Then why did I hear a different version?
You, the Lanhai Sect, together with the disciples of the Xuanyuan Sect and the other two sects, dozens of people stopped one of the other party and wanted to force him to tell you about the opportunity.
However, he was suppressed by the young man and finally had to kneel down and beg for mercy before he survived.
Speaking of face, the face of your Lanhai Sect should have been lost by your own disciples long ago.
Now you have the nerve to bully the strong, don't you think your Lanhai Sect has lost enough face?"
Ba Chunqiu's tone remained calm, but his words made the faces of all the disciples of Lanhai Sect change drastically.
Begging for mercy from Lu Qing would be the humiliation of their lives.
I had originally thought that before the news spread widely, I would have the Supreme Elder capture and suppress this person to save face.
But I didn't expect that this scandal would be exposed publicly now.
The Lanhai Sect's Grand Elder also had a grim expression on his face.
"It seems that you, the Overlord Clan, are determined to protect this kid?"
“Yes, this young man had a very pleasant conversation with Ba Tian from my clan in the secret realm, and they got along very well. Since he is a friend of our Ba Wang clan, I will naturally protect him.” Ba Chunqiu said as a matter of course.
After saying this, a powerful aura emanated from him.
The spiritual energy around it becomes stagnant.
Ba Chunqiu's attitude can be described as overbearing.
But his words made many Jindan realm masters look strange.
On that day in the ancient tower, many people heard the conversation between Lu Qing and Batian.
They really didn't realize how the two of them could talk so happily and get along so well.
Immediately, some quick-witted people understood.
Although Ba Chunqiu spoke in a high-sounding manner, I'm afraid he had other plans.
"That sounds nice." The Grand Elder of Lanhai Sect sneered, "You, the Overlord Clan, are attracted by the secret of this boy and his alien spirit beast.
If this guy really follows you, I'm afraid he will be eaten up completely, without even a trace left!"
"Are you slandering our Overlord Clan?"
Ba Chunqiu's eyes turned cold as he stared directly at the Grand Elder of Lanhai Sect.
"Whether it is slander or not, you know it yourself. This kid has a big secret, and it is very likely that he has obtained an opportunity in the secret realm. In addition, he has an alien spirit beast. Do you dare to say that you, the Overlord Clan, are not tempted by this?"
The Grand Elder of Lanhai Sect continued to sneer without any exaggeration at this time.
Although the Overlord Clan is powerful, it is far superior to their Lanhai Sect.
However, their Lanhai Sect is far away from the territory of the Overlord Clan, and there are several powerful sects in between, some of which are as powerful as the Overlord Clan.
No matter how powerful the Overlord Clan is, they cannot reach so far and do anything to the Lanhai Sect.
Therefore, although the Grand Elder of Lanhai Sect was wary of Ba Chunqiu, he was not yet afraid of him.
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of all the powerful souls changed slightly.
After receiving reports from their disciples, they all knew the situation in the secret realm and what the young man in front of them had done in the secret realm.
It's not just his spirit beast, it's most likely an alien species with ancient bloodline.
More importantly, the other party may have obtained the greatest opportunity in the secret realm.
Judging from the disciples' description of the secret realm, the opportunity was most likely left behind by an existence that they could not even imagine.
Therefore, Ba Chunqiu's sudden emergence is self-evident in his mind.
For a moment, the eyes of all the powerful souls looking at Ba Chunqiu became a little strange.
How could Ba Chunqiu not sense the meaning of these gazes? He immediately laughed in anger.
"Okay, okay, it seems that if my Overlord Clan does not move for a long time, people will lose their respect for me. Anyone can provoke me.
Batian, go and take this young man over here. I want to see who dares to touch the person my clan wants to protect!
And you, Old Man Qiu, an old immortal with exhausted potential, dare to mock my clan in front of me, then I will use you as a sacrifice first!"
After saying that, Ba Chunqiu directly slashed out a sky-high sword energy and slashed towards the Grand Elder of Lanhai Sect.
The Grand Elder of Lanhai Sect did not expect that Ba Chunqiu would actually start fighting as soon as he said so.
Fortunately, he was prepared and immediately took out a magic weapon to protect himself.
It was a water-blue shield. Once it was cast out, it instantly transformed into layers of flowing water curtains, protecting himself and the disciples behind him.
Although Ba Chunqiu's sword energy was extremely domineering, when it slashed on the water, it was torn apart and dissolved by the ever-changing water flow in the heavy water curtain.
In the end, although it broke through more than ten water curtains in succession, it was still unable to sustain and was completely wiped out.
"Why, are you going to get angry and kill someone to stop talking when I exposed your true feelings? But there are so many fellow Taoists here, can you, Ba Chunqiu alone, stop talking to them?"
After using the power of the magic weapon to dissolve Ba Chunqiu's sword energy, the Grand Elder of Lanhai Sect felt relieved, but still mocked him.
As for the Lanhai Sect disciples behind him, their faces were filled with excitement.
I didn't expect the Supreme Elder to be so tough that he dared to confront even the powerful people of the Overlord Clan head-on.
"Jingtao Shield? You actually brought one of the spiritual weapons of your Lanhai Sect with you. No wonder you dare to speak so presumptuously. If that's the case, I will take away your Turtle Shield and break your body. After I return, I will take people to Haizhou and destroy your Lanhai Sect!"
A terrifying aura rose from Ba Chunqiu, and a domineering sword suddenly appeared in his hand.
Upon seeing this, the expression of the Lanhai Sect's Grand Elder became extremely solemn.
But things had come to this point, and he couldn't retreat. He could only use all his strength to activate the magic weapon, making the water curtain surrounding his body move even faster.
The clash of the auras of the two great spiritual powers immediately caused the surrounding spiritual energy to become restless, and even the laws of heaven and earth were fluctuated.
"Wait a minute, both of you."
Just as a battle of souls was about to break out, a figure suddenly appeared between the two of them with a smile on his face.
When they saw the appearance of the person who appeared clearly, both Ba Chunqiu and the Grand Elder of Lanhai Sect looked stern and their aura slowly subsided.
"Xuan Jian, what do you mean by this?" Ba Chunqiu stared at the man, "Could it be that you, the Tianjian Sect, are also going to interfere and oppose me? Well, then you all can come together!"
It turned out that the person standing between them was the elder of the Tianjian Sect, Elder Xuanjian.
When the other Yuanshen realm masters saw this scene, they looked like they were enjoying the show.
The relationships between top forces are often complicated.
Just like between the Ba Wang Clan and the Tian Jian Clan, Ba Tian and Chen Zang Feng have a good relationship, but there is a lot of old grudge between Ba Chun Qiu and the Xuan Jian elder.
It is said that the two were good friends when they were young, but later they parted ways unhappily because they were competing for the heart of a saint from a major sect.
Although they didn't become mortal enemies in the end, they still never had any contact with each other again.
Now that Elder Xuanjian has stepped forward, it is no wonder that Ba Chunqiu has an unfriendly look on his face.
"No, I just don't want you two to start a war here. You two are the backbone of our human race.
If we fight to the death over such a small matter, no matter which side dies, it will be a loss for our human race, and in the end, the demon race will only benefit."
Elder Xuan Jian said solemnly.
"Really? Why don't I remember that you, Xuanjian, are such a big shot. A despicable person like you must be planning something again, right?"
However, Ba Chunqiu did not believe his nonsense at all and directly made sarcastic remarks.
"In fact, the dispute between the two is nothing more than the opportunity that happened to this young man. In this case, why don't you sit down and have a good talk about it."
Faced with Ba Chunqiu's sarcasm, Elder Xuanjian did not get angry, but continued to persuade with a smile.
"What is there to talk about? I have protected this man. Whoever dares to touch him will be against my Ba Wang family!" Ba Chunqiu still did not make any concessions.
"Chunqiu, there is no point in what you said."
Seeing that Ba Chunqiu was not giving in, Elder Xuanjian's smile faded a little.
"No one present here is a fool. We all know what you are planning. Your Tyrant Clan wants to monopolize the opportunity. Do you think the fellow Taoists will agree? Let's sit down and have a good talk, so as not to hurt the harmony."
"Yes, this person not only robbed the disciples of Lanhai Sect in the secret realm, but also the disciples of Xuanyuan Sect. We have to have an explanation."
At this time, another person in the Yuanshen realm spoke.
But he was none other than the Yuanshen realm elder of Xuanyuan Sect.
"And our disciples were also robbed by him. We must give an explanation!"
Several more Yuanshen realm masters stepped forward.
"Senior Ba Chunqiu, I also think that this matter should be discussed carefully."
A young man stood up. He was Gongshu Zheng, the new spirit of Gongshu family.
As each Yuanshen realm cultivator spoke, Ba Chunqiu's expression turned ugly.
Although he was confident, he was not so conceited as to think he could compete with so many Yuanshen realm masters.
But if I give in now, then wouldn't everything I said just now be nonsense?
For a moment, Ba Chunqiu could only remain gloomy and say nothing.
“You see, that young man acted too high-profile in the secret realm, causing public outrage, and now he is the target of public criticism.
Even the Tyrant Clan can't withstand the pressure of such a Yuan Shen realm. If we intervene, it will only make things worse and bring great disaster to the sect."
Gan Lingxiao's voice rang in the minds of all the Qiankun Sect disciples.
Qin Zheng, Ye Qingzhu and others fell silent upon hearing this.
They knew that what the eldest brother said was true, but they still felt aggrieved in their hearts.
I can only hate myself for being so lowly, watching my benefactor suffer but being unable to do anything to help.
"Brother Ling Xiao, what do you think?"
At this moment, Gongshu Zheng shouted.
It turned out that all the people in the Yuanshen realm who were present had expressed their opinions, and only a few people were left, and they remained silent.
Among them is Gan Lingxiao.
Qin Zheng, Ye Qingzhu and other disciples of Qiankun Sect all looked at the eldest senior brother.
"I am a humble person with little influence, so I naturally agree with the advice of the seniors. Since this young man has done something wrong, he should be punished."
Gan Lingxiao seemed not to feel the gazes of his fellow disciples and smiled slightly.
"Chunqiu, you have heard it too. Everyone has reached a consensus. Do you still want to insist on your own way?" Elder Xuanjian said.
"Humph!" Ba Chunqiu snorted coldly, "Since you have all colluded, what else can I say!"
"So you're willing to give in?"
Ba Chunqiu didn't say anything.
But looking at his expression, everyone knew that he agreed.
At this time, Elder Xuanjian's gaze fell on Lu Qing.
Then he smiled and said, "Young man, you should have heard what I just said."
"I heard it." Lu Qing nodded slightly.
This was the first time he spoke after coming out.
Seeing that he was still calm, all the powerful people in the Yuanshen realm had a strange look in their eyes.
If they had some doubts about what their disciples said before.
Now I understand a little bit.
Apart from anything else, the fact that he could remain so calm when facing the scrutiny of so many people at the Spirit Realm.
This state of mind of being able to remain calm in the face of adversity is far superior to that of their fellow disciples.
"In that case, do you have anything to say?" asked Elder Xuanjian.
"Senior, what do you think I should do?" Lu Qing asked back.
"Young man, hand over all the opportunities you have gained in the secret realm, and also offer us your spirit beast. If we are satisfied, perhaps we can spare your life."
Before Elder Xuanjian could speak, the Grand Elder of Lanhai Sect spoke coldly.
"Is this also what the seniors meant?" Lu Qing asked around.
This time, no one spoke.
But the silent attitude of the Yuanshen realm group has already made everything clear.
However, those Jindan realm powerhouses who came out of the secret realm had different expressions.
Some were indifferent, some were excited, some were expectant, but more were showing expressions of gloating.
In their view, Lu Qing was already a fish on the chopping board, ready to be slaughtered.
Only Qin Zheng, Ye Qingzhu and other disciples of the Qiankun Sect, as well as a very small number of people including the Wubao Taoist priest, showed concerns.
Lu Qing saw all of this.
The next moment, he chuckled.
"Young man, what are you laughing at?"
The Grand Elder of Lanhai Sect frowned and asked.
"What am I laughing at?" Lu Qing stood proudly, a hint of sarcasm on his face, "I am laughing at you hypocritical old things. If you want to steal something, just say it directly. Why do you have to go through so many twists and turns? I didn't expect that the so-called famous and upright sects and the righteous path of the human race are all dirty people like you. It's really disgusting!"
“Bold!”
"You arrogant kid!"
"court death!"
When these words were spoken, all the powerful men were stunned at first, and then they all became furious.
However, the next moment, something even more shocking happened to them.
Lu Qing's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot.
When he appeared again, he had already arrived in front of the Grand Elder of the Lanhai Sect.
He clenched his right fist, and in an instant, he opened his fist stance and punched the opponent in the face.
