Chapter 299

Chapter 299: Siege! Lu Qing is so powerful that it makes people despair!

Lu Qing suddenly appeared before Xuanming.

This time, he held nothing back.

Qi and blood surged through his body, his innate zhenqi churning at breakneck speed.

Unfortunately, the several talismans he had stored in the acupoints between his eyebrows had

been destroyed by the tribulation thunder during his previous tribulation, refining his innate body and transforming himself

, leaving him no time to re-condense them.

Otherwise, the power of his strike would have been even more terrifying!

Even without the talismans’ blessing, Lu Qing’s current strength had reached a level unimaginable.

Though only at the beginning of the Xiantian realm, even an ordinary Xiantian realm master would struggle to withstand a single blow from him.

The combined power of his physical body and zhenqi pushed Lu Qing’s strength to its limit.

Like a bolt of lightning, the sword in his hand struck Xuanming’s head.

“What a swift movement, what a swift sword!”

Lu Qing’s lightning-fast movements, even if motionless, stunned the assembled warriors.

Even for those at the Xiantian realm, Lu Qing was already before Xuanming.

Even the onlookers were stunned, let alone Xuanming.

As a Qigong practitioner, he wasn’t particularly adept at close combat, and now, with his mind and spirit wounded,

he had no time to react to Lu Qing’s terrifying agility. He could only watch helplessly as Lu Qing’s longsword slashed towards his head.

It looked as if Xuanming was about to be cleaved in two by Lu Qing’s blow.

Suddenly, the red, gilded cassock he wore glowed with a protective glow.

But under Lu Qing’s overwhelming force, the glow barely lasted half a breath before being shattered.

But that split second gave Xuanming time to react. At the last moment, he turned his head, avoiding a severed skull.

Lu Qing’s sword barely grazed his head, slicing down his shoulder.

Boom!

Lu Qing’s blade struck Xuanming’s shoulder, but it failed to cleave him in two.

Instead, it was blocked by the red cassock, preventing it from penetrating his body.

While the red cassock blocked the blade’s edge, it couldn’t completely neutralize the force of Lu Qing’s blow.

Under Lu Qing’s immense force, Xuanming’s shoulder instantly collapsed, breaking countless bones.

The ground beneath his seat cracked, creating a pit that half-buried him.

“Ah! Senior Brother Xuanming!”

“You little beast, accept your fate!”

“Death to the evil demon!”

Seeing Xuanming slammed into the earth by Lu Qing’s blade, his life or death uncertain,

the other Xuankong Mountain elders were horrified.

Having already sensed something ominous, they had been on guard after seeing Lu Qing break free from the control of the demon-subduing vajra’s golden light.

But they hadn’t anticipated Lu Qing’s terrifying speed.

Despite their extreme vigilance, they still had no time to react before they were bullied into position before Senior Brother Xuanming.

Infuriated, several Xuankong Mountain elders immediately attacked, using fists, kicks, staffs, and swords, each unleashing their unique skills to attack Lu Qing.

Xuanming wasn’t adept at close combat, but his fellow disciples were martial arts masters with the strength of the Innate Realm.

Their combined power shattered the air for several feet, crushing Lu Qing.

Their terrifying aura made the spectators’ eyes tremble.

“Haha, just in time!”

Faced with the siege of five Innate Realm masters, supreme warriors who had emerged from a secret abode,

Lu Qing showed no fear, even bursting into laughter. He then made an unexpected move.

He loosened his grip, letting his sword drop to the ground.

He clenched his fists, and the next moment, a thunderous, earth-shattering roar emanated from Lu Qing’s mouth.

The roar was like waves, like a dragon or a tiger, terrifying and awe-inspiring.

More importantly, the powerful sonic vibrations of the roar instantly shattered the violent air currents created by the five Xuankong Mountain elders, rendering them powerless to threaten Lu Qing.

Having shattered the energy with a long roar, Lu Qing didn’t pause.

Using the residual force of the roar, he twisted his foot, deforming the ground beneath his feet. As his body erupted into a layer of white mist, he lunged towards one of the Xuankong Mountain elders.

While it sounds complex, the entire process, from the Xuankong Mountain elders’ attack to Lu Qing’s roar shattering the energy, happened in the blink of an eye.

By the time Lu Qing lunged at the Xuankong Mountain elder, none of their attacks had yet reached him.

His first target was an unarmed monk.

This person has a broad body, and his arms are particularly thick and fat. His whole body exudes a powerful energy.

At first glance, he is a top-notch warrior who has cultivated a very strong body and is extremely skilled in boxing and kicking.

In the martial arts, after entering the Xiantian realm, one can cultivate Xiantian true qi, have the ability to release true qi, and condense sword energy and other long-range attack methods.

But not all Xiantian realm warriors will choose this path of practice.

Some warriors will choose to use their own true qi to nourish the body and make the body stronger.

Such warriors have much stronger bodies than ordinary Xiantian realm warriors, and their pure strength is also stronger.

This is the path that Xiantian warriors who are good at boxing and kicking will usually choose.

The big monk that Lu Qing pounced on was a powerful warrior who focused on physical training and was good at boxing and kicking.

Seeing Lu Qing abandon his sword and lunge at him barehanded, a sinister grin spread across his face.

“Boy, you’re courting death!”

A pair of broad, fleshy hands, each as large as a palm leaf fan, turned crimson, like two blood-red millstones, swirling air as they fiercely slammed into Lu Qing’s body.

Roar!

Facing the monk’s ferocious blow, Lu Qing remained expressionless, not even attempting to dodge.

The roars of tigers and dragons resonated within him. He clenched his fists, his white jade-like fists radiating like twin dragons emerging from the sea, striking the monk’s crimson palms.

Boom!

The fists collided, a powerful surge of energy sweeping across the entire area.

The monk’s palms were several times larger than Lu Qing’s, seemingly holding a superior force.

However, when Lu Qing’s fists pressed against his, his expression changed instantly.

He felt a deep, oceanic power emanating from Lu Qing’s fists.

It was as if he were striking not fists but two immovable mountains.

Crushed by the overwhelming force, the monk’s palm instantly twisted and exploded.

Even his arm was shattered, flesh turning into a bloody mist, and his bones shattered and scattered.

“Ah!”

The monk screamed in agony as Lu Qing shattered both of his arms.

But before he could even utter a single cry, Lu Qing, following the momentum of his fist, charged forward, shielding him with his shoulder and slamming into his chest.

With Lu Qing’s current strength, the force of this impact was so immense that the monk felt like he had been struck by a battering ram.

His sternum shattered, and his internal organs were crushed into a pulp.

His massive body flew backward, only coming to a stop after crashing through two walls.

He was already breathing out, not in.

Boom!

But Lu Qing paid no attention. The moment he slid into the monk’s arms,

he knew the monk was doomed.

So, the moment he knocked the elder monk flying, he used the recoil to leap forward, landing in front of another monk wielding a staff. With roars like tigers and dragons, he unleashed another punch.

The staff-wielding monk, though witnessing his fellow monk’s plight

, had no time for grief. His eyes widened, his breath surging, and he ignored Lu Qing’s blows, hurling his staff straight at Lu Qing’s chest.

He intended a mutually destructive fight, a life-or-death struggle with Lu Qing!

But how could Lu Qing have such an outcome?

Having comprehended the profound Dao rhymes of the world’s originary Qi and endured the baptism of a heavenly tribulation,

his realm of [intention] had reached a new level, reaching an unfathomable realm.

His boxing skills had also improved significantly.

Facing the staff-wielding monk’s desperate attack, he simply twisted his foot slightly, his body suddenly becoming lithe.

With a strange twist, he twisted around the staff like a dragon, his fist remaining unchanged as he struck the opponent’s chest.

Reshaped by the baptism of the heavenly tribulation, Lu Qing’s innate strength had become incredibly powerful.

The force of this blow rivaled the blow he had just used to send the large monk flying.

With a crackling sound, the staff-wielding monk’s chest collapsed, and blood gushed from his mouth as he flew backward.

“You little beast, die!”

After Lu Qing dispatched two of them, the other three Xuankong Mountain elders finally reached Lu Qing and attacked him in unison.

First, a red-robed monk, wielding a sword, emanated a cascade of blades, enveloping Lu Qing.

The blades were sinister and filled with murderous intent, as if the Asura of Hell had reappeared, seeking to slay Lu Qing.

As the sword-wielding monk shone, the other two monks, one wielding a short staff and the other a fist, also attacked Lu Qing.

“Using a sword in front of me?”

Facing the combined attack of the three, Lu Qing snorted coldly. He

didn’t dodge, but rather charged forward toward the onslaught of swords.

He gently extended his hand, and the next moment, the sword flashes vanished. The sword in the monk’s hand was unexpectedly grasped by his bare hands, unable to move.

“How is that possible?”

The monk’s eyes flashed with disbelief, as if he couldn’t believe his swordsmanship could be so easily broken by bare hands.

However, just as he lost consciousness, his arm went numb, and the sword in his hand had somehow been snatched away by Lu Qing.

With the sword in hand, Lu Qing casually struck twice, forcing back the other two Xuankong Mountain elders.

Then, with a single sweep, he struck the monk.

The sword flashed, and the monk felt dizzy and unconscious.

“Junior Brother Xuanyi!”

“Die, you little beast!”

The remaining two Xuankong Mountain elders watched as Lu Qing decapitated the monk.

A look of utter frenzy suddenly appeared on their faces. With reckless abandon, they summoned all their might and charged towards Lu Qing.

Unfortunately, facing Lu Qing, whose power was enough to inflict despair, their attacks were doomed to fail.

Within moments, they were easily slain by Lu Qing’s razor blade.

“Puff!”

As Lu Qing decapitated the final Xuankong Mountain elder,

a hush fell over the area.

All the onlookers stared at him in astonishment.

Many even showed a hint of fear in their eyes.

There was no way around it; the battle had just been too dramatic.

Remember, the ones besieging Lu Qing were Xuankong Mountain elders.

These elders were all in the Great Perfection stage of the Innate Realm, and due to their origins in a secret abyss, their strength was far greater than that of the average Innate Realm master.

Yet, their sheer strength was a mockery before Lu Qing.

Five of them attacked, yet they couldn’t even scratch Lu Qing’s clothes.

Instead, they were easily defeated and slain one by one by Lu Qing.

Throughout this, Lu Qing’s uncanny movements, his unparalleled strength, and his terrifying, unpredictable swordsmanship

all captivated everyone’s hearts and minds.

Even after the battle ended, everyone stared at Lu Qing in terror, no one daring to speak,

fearing they might even anger this evil spirit.

Even powerful figures like Taoist Yangming remained silent. As for

the young monks who had been cut in half by Lu Qing but hadn’t died, they were

now utterly terrified. They trembled violently, daring not to make a sound, fearing Lu Qing would notice them.

And in a distant, unnoticed, dark corner, a shadowy figure also trembled slightly.

Its eyes were filled with disbelief: “How could he be so powerful? What kind of monster is this kid?”

“Huh?”

In the silence, Lu Qing suddenly exclaimed softly, turning to look at Monk Xuanming.

“Old baldy, I didn’t expect you to be so lucky. You’re still alive.”

Everyone paused for a moment, looking towards Xuanming.

Monk Xuanming looked incredibly miserable.

Half his body was buried in the ground, leaving only his upper body exposed. One shoulder had collapsed, and even one of his ears had been cut off. His

hair was disheveled, his face was covered in dirt, and his body was covered in blood. He looked nothing like the enlightened monk he once was.

However, at this moment, Monk Xuanming’s aura was completely gone, and he looked completely dead, completely unlike what Lu Qing had said, showing any signs of life.

“Facing death, huh?”

Lu Qing chuckled softly, and with a kick, a stone whistled and flew swiftly towards Xuanming’s head.

Just as it was about to crush Monk Xuanming’s head, a red light suddenly appeared, rippling out in a wave, deflecting the stone.

“Amitabha, Benefactor Lu, are you really going to kill us all?”

Xuanming’s eyes opened, and he looked at Lu Qing with grief and anger.

Seeing Xuanming’s eyes open, the powerful warriors were shocked, realizing that he had been faking his death.

While marveling at the profoundness of Xuankong Mountain’s aura-controlling method, they also felt even greater awe for Lu Qing.

So many of them had failed to detect Xuanming’s feigned death,

but this young man saw through it instantly. It was hard to imagine the depth of his power.

“Kill them all?” Lu Qing said calmly, “That’s right, none of you bald donkeys from Xuankong Mountain will be able to leave here alive.”

After saying that, he raised his wrist slightly, and a knife energy flew towards Xuanming.

This knife energy was released by Lu Qing with his concentration. Even if Xuanming had a red light protecting his body, it would be difficult to resist.

Sure enough, the knife energy flew closer, and the red light on Xuanming’s body reappeared, but it only lasted for half a breath before

it was cut off by the knife energy. Just when Xuanming’s eyes showed fear, and his head was about to be cut off by the knife energy.

A sword energy flew out from nowhere, and arrived first, gently intercepted the knife energy and eliminated it.
