"Isnât this still uncertain? What if heâs a loose cultivator? In that case, being able to join my Daoxu Temple is an opportunity even countless prodigies yearn for."
"Alright, these are just minor matters. You mentioned wanting to collaborate with our Biluo Palace to enter the tower and seize the opportunity. Is this true?"
"Indeed, we have both been inside the Ancient Tower. You should understand that the trial there is tremendously difficult. By ourselves, it may be hard to pass through. Only by collaborating can we have a slight chance."
The cold voice remained silent for a moment, finally agreeing, "Fine, but before entering, we must swear a Divine Soul Oath and set three rules."
"Thatâs only natural."
...
"Ah Yu, your intuition wasnât wrong that day; this person is indeed extremely dangerous."
The woman at the location of the Gongshu Family members had a shocked expression on her face and couldnât help saying.
The other members of the Gongshu Family were equally astonished.
None of them had expected that the young man they had encountered not long ago, who was merely at the Initial Realm of the Golden Core, could explode with such terrifying power.
They had all personally experienced the strength of the Black Wolf Beast.
This seemingly inconspicuous young man could actually kill it with a single punch; they simply couldnât believe it had they not witnessed it themselves.
Some members of the Gongshu Family inwardly felt fortunate that they hadnât acted against Lu Qing and Little Li earlier.
Otherwise, caught off guard, sustaining such a punch, none of them but Gongshu Yu might have been able to withstand it.
"Yes, unexpected indeed."
Gongshu Yuâs expression was somewhat grave.
Though he had sensed earlier that Lu Qing and Little Li were not as simple as they appeared.
But he hadnât anticipated their power to be this formidable.
And thinking about such a character walked closely with people from the Qiankun Sect, Gongshu Yu felt a bit uneasy.
Moreover, recalling seeing Ye Qingzhu and others earlier, his intuition told him that their recovery might likely be connected to Lu Qing and Little Li.
Thinking of this, Gongshu Yuâs eyes turned as he began to ponder.
As for the commotion and reactions from numerous forces in the dense forest over his slaying of the Black Wolf Beast, Lu Qing paid no attention.
He had returned to the valley where people from the Qiankun Sect had stayed earlier.
Soon, all the disciples of the Qiankun Sect and the five-treasure Daoist returned.
"Mr. Chen..."
Qin Zheng was about to speak when Lu Qing waved his hand to interrupt, "Mr. Qin, I wish to adjust my breath for a while, may I use the houses here?"
"Mr. Chen, are you injured?" Qin Zheng swallowed what he was about to say and quickly replied, "Thereâs no problem at all, feel free to use them."
"Not exactly injured, itâs just a bit exhausting. Iâll bother you all for a moment then."
Qin Zheng recalled Lu Qing had expended considerable mana healing Ye Qingzhu and the others.
And having just killed a Black Wolf Beast himself, he immediately said, "Then Mr. Chen should quickly adjust your breath."
After Lu Qing cupped his hands slightly, he took Little Li into the house and casually set up an array to conceal his aura, then brought out the Leaving Fire Tripod, beginning to refine the bloodline of the Black Wolf Beast.
His willingness to expose part of his power in front of so many powerful figures to kill this Black Wolf Beast was naturally for the Witchâs Primordial Blood it contained.
Such treasures that can permanently enhance oneâs physical strength and potential are rare, and having encountered it, naturally, it cannot be missed.
While Lu Qing was refining the Black Wolf Beastâs Primordial Blood inside the house, outside, the disciples of the Qiankun Sect, under Qin Zhengâs command, re-established the Defensive Array, guarding the entire valley.
After all was done, the disciples of the Qiankun Sect gathered at a corner of the valley.
Qin Zheng looked towards Ye Qingzhu and the others.
"Junior Sister Qing Zhu, didnât you mention earlier that Mr. Chen excels in Sword Dao and his swordsmanship is divine? How come..."
Stopping here, Qin Zheng didnât continue, but his meaning was clear.
Other disciples of the Qiankun Sect also looked towards Ye Qingzhu and the others.
Even now, recalling Lu Qingâs scene of killing the Black Wolf Beast, their hearts were still in turmoil.
Amid the roar of tiger and dragon, a fist shattering the head of a Black Wolf Beast is truly too shocking.
It made them almost question if they were witnessing an Illusion Realm.
But amid shock, they shared Qin Zhengâs bewilderment.
Wasnât Mr. Chen known for his swordsmanship? Able to slay Li Motian, whose strength rivaled late-stage Golden Core Realm after falling into Demon Path, solely using a Sword Point technique?
Yet just now, he resisted the Black Wolf Beastâs attack with the pure physical body and crushed it.
The strength displayed, while equally formidable, couldnât relate to Sword Cultivators, could it?
"I donât know either." Ye Qingzhu also looked puzzled, "Previously when Mr. Chen killed Li Motian, he indeed used swordsmanship.
Even my master praised his swordsmanship after seeing the sword wounds on Li Motianâs corpse.
I also didnât expect he excelled in boxing and had such a strong physical body."
Ye Qingzhuâs shock wasnât lighter than her fellow disciples.
She always believed Lu Qing was an exceptionally powerful Sword Cultivator, also highly skilled in Medical Skill.
For this reason, she had consulted her master if there was a Primordial Spirit Great Power with mastery in both medicine and swordsmanship, possibly Lu Qingâs mentor.
However, the scene just now showed her that she only knew one side of Lu Qing.
Lu Qingâs mystery and power far surpass her imagination.
As for Purple Clouds and Chu Xiaoqing, they too looked bewildered.
Unable to understand why Lu Qing, initially a powerful Sword Cultivator, was also similarly strong in boxing.
"Even you are unsure?"
Qin Zheng looked at the expressions of Ye Qingzhu and the three, knowing they truly didnât understand this.
But since even Elder Mo Xuan praised his swordsmanship, Lu Qingâs Sword Dao proficiency must be extremely astounding.
Immediately, he turned his gaze to the five-treasure Daoist.
Seeing the plump Daoist gesture with his hand, "Donât look at me, I know as much as you all. I met him by chance on the way to Tianshu City.
Only because we got along well, we decided to travel together.
Yet regarding Mr. Chen, I donât know more than you.
The shocking boxing skill exhibited by Mr. Chen just now is also my first time seeing it; my Heart and Spirit are still stirred."
"Indeed, Second Senior Brother." Chu Xiaoqing added, "When Brother Chen saved us, he was alone, and later in Tianshu City we met, the five-treasure Daoist was with him."
Qin Zheng was surprised upon hearing this.
He hadnât expected this fellow traveler in the secret realm with Lu Qing, the plump Daoist, was just like them, not knowing much about Lu Qing.
Looking at the house where Lu Qing was located, his eyes showed a mysterious expression, "It seems Mr. Chenâs background is truly unfathomable."
The five-treasure Daoist similarly looked toward the house.
But beyond marveling at Lu Qingâs mystery, he pondered another matter.
"Mr. Chen inside might not be adjusting his breath but refining the Black Wolf Beastâs bloodline."
Regarding Lu Qingâs Manaâs depth, the five-treasure Daoist understood deeply.
While traveling, he had adjusted his breath many times, yet Lu Qing hadnât done so even once.
Thus, he couldnât believe the one explosive kill of the Black Wolf Beast would exhaust Lu Qing significantly.
Recalling those strange bloodlines inside the black mice from earlier in the Forest Sea.
The five-treasure Daoist vaguely guessed the true reason Lu Qing slew the Black Wolf Beast.
Seems it was precisely for its bloodline.
Of course, the five-treasure Daoist wouldnât share these guesses.
Since Lu Qing didnât speak actively, he naturally would keep the secret.
While everyone was immersed in different thoughts, suddenly a voice came from outside the valley.
