Whoosh!
Another sword light flashed, piercing the head of a newly appeared disciple of the Black and White Temple.
The sword light pierced through the body, annihilating the primordial spirit of this Black and White Temple disciple and taking away all his life force.
Bang!
The body of the Black and White Sect disciple fell to the ground, and his life force slowly dissipated.
Beside him lay the corpses of seven or eight other disciples of the Black and White Temple, all dressed in black and white Taoist robes.
The square was completely silent.
The powerful figures watched as yet another disciple of the Black and White Temple was killed by Lu Qing; their faces were no longer filled with shock, but with numbness.
Even though the person he just killed was a late-stage Nascent Soul Realm expert who had just reached the Seventh Tribulation Perfection stage.
There's no way around it. Anyone who watches it seven or eight times, no matter how powerful the Black and White Sect disciples are, will be killed by Lu Qing with a single sword strike and become numb to it.
Having witnessed this, they now understand that Lu Qing's strength has reached a level that is truly unfathomable.
Although the aura it exudes on the surface is still that of a fifth-stage primordial spirit.
But everyone knows that below the Eight Tribulations level, no one can rival Lu Qing's sword.
If a disciple of the Black and White Sect appears, there is no other outcome but death.
Unless it comes from Demon Slaughter Mountain, the outcome might be different.
However, nowadays, many people's thoughts have changed.
Many people have begun to wonder if, even if Demon Slaughter Mountain were to emerge, he might not actually be a match for Lu Qing.
There's no way around it; the strength Lu Qing has displayed during this period has been truly terrifying.
Whether it's the sixth or seventh tribulation of the primordial spirit, it can be killed with a single sword strike; there's no need for a second strike.
Such terrifying sword energy is something even an eighth-level sword cultivator would find difficult to achieve.
Although Mo Tushan is a powerful expert at the Eighth Tribulation Perfection stage and seems to possess many trump cards.
However, many Nascent Soul cultivators were no longer certain whether he was truly a match for the mysterious Fifth Tribulation cultivator mentioned earlier.
The following time was still Lu Qing's time for slaughter.
Disciples of the Black and White Sect continued to emerge from the various trial passages.
However, without exception, they were all killed by Lu Qing with a single sword strike as soon as they appeared.
Such ruthlessness and decisiveness made the surrounding experts increasingly respect Lu Qing.
This person, despite possessing unfathomable cultivation, showed none of the demeanor of a master.
Even when dealing with cultivators whose strength was far inferior to his, he still used methods close to sneak attacks to kill them.
Their strength is formidable and unpredictable, yet they are shameless and ruthless.
Such people are often the ones you should never mess with!
A day later, another disciple of the Black and White Temple emerged from the test passage, only to be killed by Lu Qing in the blink of an eye.
However, ten days passed after that Black and White Temple disciple, and no more Black and White Temple disciples came out from inside.
This caused some powerful figures to discuss among themselves: Could it be that, apart from Mo Tu Shan, all the disciples of the Black and White Temple in the passage had been wiped out by Lu Qing?
Lu Qing was also pondering this in secret.
At the time, most of his attention was focused on Demon Slaughter Mountain, and he did not notice the exact number of people from Black and White Temple who entered the secret realm this time.
Looking back now, however, he should have killed about the same number of Black and White Sect disciples.
"Very well, let's wait a few more days. If no new disciples of the Black and White Temple emerge, we'll return to the Immortal Palace to consult with the old Azure Dragon and the others to see if any have slipped through the net."
The old Azure Dragon was a Dao Integration Realm expert who was well-versed in the Dao of Space, and he knew the situation of the Guixu Secret Realm like the back of his hand.
If you want to know whether there are any remaining disciples of the Black and White Temple in the secret realm, asking them is the most appropriate thing to do.
Just as Lu Qing got up, preparing to return to the Immortal Palace.
Suddenly, there was a spatial fluctuation ahead, and another person appeared.
At the same time, an overwhelming and domineering aura emanated from the square, sweeping across the entire plaza.
Sensing this aura, all the powerful figures in the square felt a chill run down their spines.
They all looked warily at the middle-aged figure in the purple dragon robe and became vigilant.
On the contrary, at the edge, a group of people showed joy on their faces: "Clan Chief!"
The middle-aged man in the purple dragon robe did not look well at this moment.
He entered the magical passage, originally thinking that with his cultivation at the ninth level of the primordial spirit, he could easily break through the barriers and finally enter the immortal palace to obtain opportunities.
As a result, apart from the first few levels which went relatively smoothly, the later levels became increasingly difficult, making progress extremely challenging.
Ultimately, they were stopped at the seventh level and couldn't even enter the eighth level before being teleported out.
Thinking about how he had gone to great lengths to obtain the precious pill first, and only after breaking through did he choose the magic power channel.
The fact that he could only get to the seventh level recently made the middle-aged man in the purple dragon robe feel frustrated.
This trial in the celestial palace is simply illogical!
If even the Nine Tribulations of the Primordial Spirit Realm cannot be overcome to obtain opportunities, then why set a restriction that only those at the Primordial Spirit Realm can enter the Ruins of Return Secret Realm?
Isn't this completely unnecessary?
Could it be that only those at the peak of the Nine Tribulations Realm are qualified to enter this Immortal Palace?
The middle-aged man in the purple dragon robe, feeling agitated, considered whether he should try entering other passages.
He habitually glanced to both sides, then suddenly his gaze sharpened as he looked at the corpses lying on the ground not far from him.
The black and white Taoist robes worn by the corpses, in particular, made his pupils shrink.
Aren't those disciples of the Black and White Sect? So many of them are dead.
How dare someone attack the people of the Black and White Temple? What happened outside while he was trying to pass through the gate?
"Chieftain!"
Just as the middle-aged man in the purple dragon robe was filled with doubt and surprise, an elder of the Great Yuan Immortal Clan came before him.
He quickly recounted everything that had happened during this period using telepathic communication.
The middle-aged man in the purple dragon robe gradually became serious as he looked toward Lu Qing's location.
"Nine Tribulations Primordial Spirit, Great Yuan Immortal Clan?"
At this moment, Lu Qing's vision had already caught sight of the note from the middle-aged man in the purple dragon robe in front of him.
A hint of surprise appeared on his face.
Unexpectedly, the other party was actually a Ninth Tribulation Primordial Spirit. I don't know if he originally had such a realm or if he broke through after entering by chance.
Furthermore, the Great Yuan Immortal Clan, who were once the rulers of the Great Yuan Immortal Domain, have also come to explore the secret realm this time.
The people of the Great Yuan Immortal Clan had been lying in wait in one of the secluded small halls not long after they entered the secret realm.
Therefore, Lu Qing had no contact with him and did not expect that the patriarch of this force was actually a Ninth Tribulation Primordial Spirit.
As for the other powerful figures, they finally sensed the cultivation level of the middle-aged man in the purple dragon robe, who made no attempt to conceal his aura, and they all showed expressions of shock.
Nine Tribulations of the Primordial Spirit!
The patriarch of the Great Yuan Immortal Clan actually broke through in the secret realm and stepped into the realm of the Ninth Tribulation of the Primordial Spirit!
Many powerful people are extremely jealous.
This is the ninth tribulation of the primordial spirit!
I have no idea what kind of incredible luck or opportunity this old guy had.
They were actually able to overcome that crucial hurdle and achieve the Nine Tribulations.
In comparison, although they also gained something in the secret realm, it was far inferior.
Sensing the shocked expressions in the eyes of the powerful figures around him, the middle-aged man in the purple dragon robe finally revealed a hint of satisfaction.
He knew that from this day forward, the prestige of their Great Yuan Immortal Clan would be spread once again.
No longer can they be without power, and no one dares to despise them.
When he reaches the Dao Integration Realm, that will be the time when their Great Yuan Immortal Clan truly rises to power!
Compared to the shock of the group of powerful figures, Lu Qing remained calm.
With his current strength, there is no one in the Nascent Soul Realm who can pose a significant threat to him.
Even a Nine Tribulation Primordial Spirit is no exception.
So when faced with the gaze from the middle-aged man in the purple dragon robe, he simply nodded slightly and was about to turn and leave.
Seeing that Lu Qing was ignoring him, the middle-aged man in the purple dragon robe narrowed his eyes.
He was already in a bad mood, and suddenly became even more annoyed.
"Boy, stop right there!" the middle-aged man in the purple dragon robe said coldly. "I have something to ask you!"
Lu Qing stopped, turned around, and calmly asked, "What is it?"
"Did you kill all these Black and White Temple disciples?"
“That’s right. What, do you want to stand up for them?” Lu Qing said calmly.
"Kid, you're pretty arrogant." The middle-aged man in the purple dragon robe raised an eyebrow. "Your feud with the Black and White Temple is none of my business, but I heard you possess a rare treasure that allows you to unleash extreme speed in the secret realm."
"Hand over that rare treasure, and I'll pretend I never saw anything, okay?"
"So you've got your eye on the extraordinary treasure I possess," Lu Qing said with a half-smile. "What if I say no?"
He realized that this Ninth Tribulation Primordial Spirit was just using this as an excuse to seize the treasures on his body.
The other powerful figures, seeing this scene, all became excited and showed expressions of anticipation for a good show.
Although Lu Qing is mysterious and his cultivation is unfathomable, his sword energy is even more fierce and unparalleled. Even a seventh-level Nascent Soul cultivator cannot withstand a single move from him.
However, the patriarch of the Great Yuan Immortal Clan is also a Nine Tribulation Primordial Spirit!
Once one enters the Ninth Tribulation of the Primordial Spirit Realm, the laws one comprehends will reach an incomparably profound level.
Taking the next step forward leads to the Divine Sense Great Dao, where one uses their own divine sense to perceive the location of the Great Dao and merges their mind and spirit into it.
He used his divine sense to manipulate a trace of the power of the Great Dao for his own use.
Reaching that stage is the legendary realm of Dao Integration.
In today's world, why are forces like the Breaking Heaven Sword Sect and the Black and White Temple revered as holy lands, and no one dares to offend them?
Even so, because these top sects all have Dao Integration Realm experts in charge.
In this era where Dao Transformation Immortals have disappeared, the Dao Integration Realm is the strongest under the starry sky!
Only sects with Dao Integration Realm experts in charge can be called holy lands.
However, for various reasons, a true body in the Dao Integration Realm will not easily leave their sect, nor can they freely enter various worlds, and they will not easily emerge from the world.
On the contrary, the Nine Tribulations of the Primordial Spirit do not have such restrictions and can freely travel in the starry sky.
However, most of the Nine Tribulation Primordial Spirits are trying to take the final step and break through to the Dao Integration Realm, so they are usually in seclusion and rarely show themselves in public.
This also makes them, like those in the Dao Integration Realm, extremely rare and elusive, seldom seen by the world.
Now that the powerful figures saw that the patriarch of the Great Yuan Immortal Clan had not only stepped into the Ninth Tribulation of the Primordial Spirit, but also wanted to fight Lu Qing, how could they not be excited?
On one side is a supreme primordial spirit who has reached the pinnacle of the primordial spirit realm, and on the other side is a powerful sword cultivator who is mysterious and unpredictable, and no one has been able to see through him to this day.
A clash between two strong forces—who knows how exciting it will be!
"If you don't hand it over, then I will capture you. I think the Black and White Temple will be very interested in you and willing to spend a lot of treasures to exchange for you."
After the middle-aged man in the purple dragon robe finished speaking, his purple robe suddenly billowed up, moving even without wind.
Immediately afterwards, a dragon roar rang out, and a purple lightning dragon, which he had already activated, rushed towards Lu Qing at great speed.
"They've really started fighting!"
Seeing this, all the powerful figures widened their eyes, not daring to miss a single detail.
The purple dragon crackled with electricity and moved at an extreme speed.
Even under the suppression of the secret realm, it still arrived in front of Lu Qing in the blink of an eye.
However, just as the purple dragon's claws slashed across Lu Qing's body...
The next moment, Lu Qing's figure vanished from the spot, turning into a wisp of green smoke.
"Phantom? When?!"
Everyone was astonished, because no one could see how Lu Qing had escaped.
The middle-aged man in the purple dragon robe narrowed his eyes as well, unleashing a massive surge of primordial spirit power that enveloped the entire plaza, determined to find Lu Qing.
The pressure of a Nine Tribulation Primordial Spirit was terrifying; the surrounding experts immediately felt as if a huge mountain was pressing down on them, making them feel extremely heavy.
They were all immediately horrified, realizing the terrifying power of the Nine Tribulations of the Primordial Spirit.
"No?"
However, after sensing the situation, the middle-aged man in the purple dragon robe's expression changed slightly.
Because he did not find any trace of Lu Qing.
Are you looking for me?
Just then, a faint voice descended from above everyone's heads.
"He's in heaven!"
When did he go up there?
"Why can he fly!"
All the powerful figures looked up and saw Lu Qing hovering high in the sky, looking down at them.
This scene immediately widened everyone's eyes, and disbelief appeared on their faces.
It should be noted that the space within the Guixu Secret Realm is extremely stagnant, and there is also a strange power of rules that suppresses everything.
Even an eighth-level primordial spirit can only move on the ground and cannot use the art of flight at all.
But now, Lu Qing was standing in mid-air right in front of them, how could they not be shocked?
"Is it the power of a magic weapon again?"
The middle-aged man in the purple dragon robe also looked rather unwell.
Even as a Ninth Tribulation Primordial Spirit, he couldn't fly in the secret realm, but the other party actually could.
In this way, wouldn't the other side be able to fight or leave at will, and be in an invincible position by nature?
What kind of treasure does this kid possess that even the rules of the secret realm cannot restrict him?
For a moment, the middle-aged man in the purple dragon robe was filled with intense jealousy, wishing he could capture Lu Qing immediately and seize the treasure.
"Kid, what kind of skill is hiding? If you're so capable, come down and face me head-on!"
The middle-aged man in the purple dragon robe shouted loudly at this moment.
However, as soon as he said this, the other powerful figures all looked at him strangely.
I never expected that a dignified Nine Tribulation Primordial Spirit would utter such shameless words.
However, to everyone's surprise, Lu Qing nodded after hearing this.
"That makes sense. Then I'll play with you."
"Perfect timing. With your level of skill, you're qualified to witness this move of mine."
With that, a small world appeared in Lu Qing's hand. (End of Chapter)
