Chapter 279After Lu Qing crushed the young monk in his hand to death, the entire scene fell into a deathly silence. Everyone widened their eyes as they looked at the young man in front of them, unable to believe that he dared to kill a disciple of Xuankong Mountain in such a brazen manner. One must know, this was Xuankong Mountain. One of the Four Great Secret Lands, with countless strong individuals, shrouded in mystery. No one knew just how deep the foundation of this superpower ran. Even the great sects of Zhongzhou, when facing such a colossal entity, had to maintain enough reverence. In the past, even a servant who emerged from the Secret Land would be treated with utmost respect by the great sects of Zhongzhou, not daring to show any slight. Therefore, when they saw Lu Qing so decisively kill a disciple of Xuankong Mountain on the spot, the onlookers were not only shocked but also felt a sense of absurdity. How dare this young man?! Especially Lin Zhirui, whose heart trembled violently: "It's over!" Even the few monks from Xuankong Mountain were momentarily stunned when they felt the young monk's life force gradually disappear in Lu Qing's grasp. Immediately, a sorrowful, furious roar erupted. "Ah! Hui Xin! You wretched brat!" It was Hui Xin's master, who, seeing his personal disciple's neck twisted by Lu Qing right in front of him, immediately roared in rage, his eyes red with fury. His body, clad in a red kasaya, shot towards Lu Qing like a red cloud. "Good timing." Lu Qing tossed the lifeless body aside and, with a slight flick of his wrist, drew the long blade at his side. In the next moment, a violent killing intent once again pervaded the surroundings, shaking everyone's spirits as a blindingly bright blade light slashed towards the great monk. "Wretched brat, die!" The great monk, facing Lu Qing's killing intent-filled strike, was full of murderous aura. A golden light emanated from his hand as he reached directly for the blade, intending to seize it with his bare flesh. "Mm?"

Given the cunning nature of these bald monks, they didn't seem like the type to act so recklessly. Could there be a trap? As this thought crossed his mind, the move in his hand immediately changed. The blade, originally slashing towards the monk's hand, drew a mysterious arc, bypassing his palm and heading straight for his face. This change in the blade's trajectory was seamless and exquisite, truly showcasing the profound depth of Lu Qing's blade techniques. The great monk did not expect that Lu Qing could execute such a subtle change in the blink of an eye. Caught off guard, he barely managed to tilt his head to avoid the strike to his face, but there was no way to dodge the blow to his shoulder, which was struck squarely by Lu Qing's blade. Ding! However, to Lu Qing's surprise, his blade did not severely injure the great monk. The blade struck his shoulder and made a sound like striking metal, as if hitting a bronze statue. "Is this the 'Vajra Body' mentioned in the note?" Lu Qing's thoughts raced, recalling the information he had previously discovered through his special ability. But... Did he really think he could block my blade entirely with just a protective qi technique? Lu Qing's eyes grew cold, and the war blade that had struck the monk's shoulder trembled countless times in an instant. With a sharp flick and a forceful drag. Slash! Blood sprayed from the monk's shoulder as a deep, bone-revealing wound extended from his shoulder to his chest and abdomen, nearly splitting him in half! "Ah!" Though it seems complicated, all this happened in just an instant. The great monk never expected Lu Qing's blade technique to be so fierce that even his prized Vajra Body couldn't withstand it. Severely injured by the strike, he screamed in agony and staggered backward in panic. "Trying to escape?" Having struck a successful blow, Lu Qing immediately pressed his advantage. With a step forward, his figure shot forward like a bolt of lightning, the blade light flashing as he slashed at the monk again. Seeing this, the great monk no longer dared to be careless. With a quick flick of his hand, a brass short staff slipped from his sleeve, and he used it to block the incoming blade. Boom! Caught off guard and unable to exert his full strength, the great monk's large body, already retreating, was sent flying backward by Lu Qing's powerful strike. It wasn't until another monk rushed forward to catch him that he managed to steady himself. Seeing that the great monk had retreated to his formation, Lu Qing did not pursue. He stood proudly in place. "Xuankong Mountain is nothing special." Once again, the entire scene plunged into dead silence. Everyone stared wide-eyed at what had just unfolded before them. "Did I see that correctly? Did Master Xuan Nu actually get injured by that young man's blade?" "Master Xuan Nu's Vajra Body has long been cultivated to the pinnacle, and with his protective qi technique, even divine weapons should have difficulty harming him. Yet he was cut down by a single strike. Who exactly is this young man?" "That's not all. Did you notice that this young man has only used the power of his physical blood and qi so far, without even resorting to Precelestial True Qi!" "Without Precelestial True Qi... Could he still be a Postnatal Realm martial artist?" Everyone was dumbfounded by the scene of Lu Qing severely injuring Master Xuan Nu with a single strike. Those who knew of Master Xuan Nu's background, especially the other members of the three great secret lands, were even more shocked. One must know, Master Xuan Nu was a formidable martial artist who had achieved the Great Completion stage of the Precelestial Realm. Moreover, he had cultivated an exceptionally powerful secret technique, the Vajra Body. It was rumored to be an extremely formidable protective qi technique. Once mastered, the qi would make one impervious to blades and fire. Even martial artists of the same level found it difficult to break through. It was a renowned protective technique of Xuankong Mountain. Unexpectedly, after years of being hidden from the world, the technique reappeared only to be broken by a single strike from a young man. What was even more shocking was that the young man was rumored to be merely a Postnatal Realm martial artist. A Postnatal Realm martial artist injuring a Precelestial Realm Great Completion master from one of the Four Great Secret Lands with a single strike? For a moment, everyone looked at Lu Qing with eyes filled with shock and disbelief. They could hardly imagine how he had achieved this. "Has Lu Qing's strength really reached such a level?" Lin Zhirui also looked on in a daze. He had speculated that Lu Qing's strength had undoubtedly increased compared to two years ago. But he never imagined that it had increased to such an extent. Whether it was breaking the formation with his fists earlier or injuring a Precelestial Realm Great Completion master from Xuankong Mountain with a single strike now, his terrifying strength had far exceeded Lin Zhirui's expectations. Hearing the exclamations around him, Lu Qing's expression remained calm. The reason he was able to break the great monk's Vajra Body was actually quite simple. First, his war blade, forged from Heaven's Meteorite Iron, was incredibly sharp, far surpassing ordinary divine weapons. Second, it was due to the technique he employed with the blade. The "Shock and Drag Blade Force"! In an instant, the blade vibrated at an extremely high frequency, piercing through the protective qi at a single point. This was a technique he had created, specifically designed to counter protective qi techniques. It required extremely strong physical control and a high level of mastery in blade techniques to execute. This was the first time he had used it in actual combat, and to his surprise, it worked wonders, nearly killing a Precelestial Realm Great Completion master. "You bald old monks of Xuankong Mountain, who else wants to come up and die?" Lu Qing said lightly, pointing his long blade forward. Table of content-
