I Can See Through All Things' Information-Chapter 555 - 356: Break Formation, Cocoon of Dark Qi, Giant Hand_2
"What’s happened, why has the black light screen disappeared?"
While the others in the Innate Realm were still puzzled, only Wei Xinghe instantly reacted, grasping the situation.
He exclaimed with great joy, "It’s that powerful stranger, he’s successfully broken the formation! Let’s go, we need to get out of the city quickly!"
Before his voice even faded away, he was already deploying his movement technique, heading out of the city.
The rest of the Innates, after exchanging glances, also employed their movement techniques and followed behind Wei Xinghe, hurrying towards the city gates.
"Boy, you’ve messed up my plans time and time again, this time, I will make you pay the price!"
Outside the city gates, the disheveled figure with the floating black Bone Sword in front was emanating an astonishing aura.
Having absorbed an entire Array Formation Light Screen, it seemed on the verge of undergoing some kind of terrifying transformation.
Seeing this, Lu Qing immediately shot an arrow.
He had not interfered with the disheveled figure earlier because he sensed that the opponent was actively withdrawing the magic.
This was good for the townspeople inside, potentially reducing many casualties, so he chose to wait and see.
Now that the Demon Formation had been withdrawn, and the black Bone Sword was clearly amiss, Lu Qing would naturally not hold back any longer.
The Magic Arrow turned into a streak of light, swiftly flying towards the black Bone Sword; in the blink of an eye, it seemed about to strike the Bone Sword.
The next instant, a hand grasped the black Bone Sword, gave a gentle wave, and with a loud explosion, the Magic Arrow shot by Lu Qing was deflected away.
"Boy, you forced my hand; I want to extract your Divine Soul, refine it with Demon Fire, make you wish you were dead, unable to live or die, forever living in torment!"
The disheveled figure, gripping the black Bone Sword, had a ferocious expression on his face.
Just as Lu Qing braced himself, thinking the opponent was about to cast a significant spell, carefully on guard...
He was shocked to find the disheveled figure suddenly open his mouth wide and swallow the black Bone Sword whole!
Immediately afterward, a powerful aura burst forth from the disheveled figure, black mist emerged and enveloped him, making him look like a Demon God.
The black mist swirled rapidly and finally condensed into a cocoon about ten meters high, floating above the city gates.
"What kind of aura is that!"
Wei Xinghe and the others, who were hurrying towards the city gates, suddenly sensed this aura and felt their hearts violently thumping, looking ahead with alarm and uncertainty.
They all felt a terrifying and evil aura brewing at the city gates.
The mere sensing of it left them feeling frightened and their Heart and Spirit trembling.
"Young Master, be careful; he seems to be forcibly trying to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm!"
"Yan’s" voice resonated in Lu Qing’s mind.
It had been closely watching the battle.
Seeing the changes in the Demon Cultivator, it immediately warned.
"I know," Lu Qing nodded.
He had already seen what the opponent was trying to do.
Devour the Heavenly Demon Bone Sword to forge a Demon Body.
This was precisely the purpose of the disheveled figure who had set up the formation to besiege State Mansion City.
He just didn’t expect that despite his interference, the opponent still managed to deploy this Secret Technique.
"However, if you want to condense a Demon Body, you have to ask my permission first!"
Lu Qing took out a Magic Arrow from his Qiankun Qi Bag and placed it upon the treasure bow.
After drawing upon Spiritual Energy, he shot an arrow towards the black mist cocoon.
The Magic Arrow streaked like a long rainbow piercing the sun, reaching the black mist cocoon in a breath’s time.
It seemed to sense the incoming attack, as the surface of the black mist cocoon suddenly sprouted numerous black mist tentacles, intertwining to hinder the Magic Arrow.
Despite the power of the Magic Arrow shot by Lu Qing, those black tentacles were exceptionally tough.
And due to their large numbers, they managed to block Lu Qing’s Magic Arrow in the end.
"Hmm?"
Seeing that the Magic Arrow was ineffective, Lu Qing’s expression finally became solemn.
The arrow just now had been the strongest one he could currently muster.
It wasn’t that his strength was insufficient, but rather the Magic Arrow could only carry a limited amount of Spiritual Energy, only able to accumulate so much force.
After all, the Magic Arrows in his Qiankun Qi Bag were only made with Thousand Refinement Treasure Steel, and their power was limited.
"I should have known, I should have crafted a few Magic Arrows out of Outer Heaven Fallen Iron to see if you could block those."
Lu Qing placed the treasure bow into the Qiankun Qi Bag and a War Saber appeared in his hand.
This saber, wholly white, had an invisible edge that seemed to slice through the air.
It was the same one he had reforged with the Leaving Fire Tripod, made entirely of Outer Heaven Fallen Iron.
"Eight Directions, since you were reforged, I haven’t had the chance to use you.
Today, I shall wield you to exorcise demons and slay monsters!"
Lu Qing caressed the War Saber, which he had named [Eight Directions].
After a long howl, a yellow light flickered around Lu Qing, and in the next moment, with a stomp, he cracked the ground in a radius of several tens of meters.
After a burst of white fog, he abruptly leaped high into the air, as if teleporting, appearing atop the city gate, before the cocoon of dark energy.
Facing the black tendrils that wrapped around him like a net stretching from heaven to earth, he raised the War Saber high, striking down like thunder.
With that slice, a terrifying Sword Qi, dozens of meters long, materialized out of thin air, slashing towards the cocoon of dark energy.
Before the boundless black tendrils, this terrifying Sword Qi was utterly unstoppable.
They shattered to pieces before even drawing near, dissolving into wisps of dark fog.
With no more obstruction from the black tendrils, the Sword Qi, unadorned and straightforward, struck the cocoon of dark energy in the sight of Wei Xinghe and the others who had just arrived at the city gate.
Boom!
The Sword Qi collided with the cocoon of darkness, and under the tremendous force of the impact, the majestic State Mansion City gate, standing dozens of meters tall, could no longer hold and exploded thunderously.
Countless bricks and stones scattered, kicking up dust and dirt into the sky.
Fortunately, at this time, there were no longer any people lingering near the city gate.
Otherwise, that single collision alone would have caused untold death and injury.
Midair, Lu Qing was wrapped in a wisp of breeze, calmly hovering in place, watching the dust billow below.
He could feel that his strike had failed to cut down the person inside the cocoon of black energy.
Within the dust, a very powerful aura was still brewing.
Sure enough, before the dust had settled, a sudden whirlwind arose.
A gigantic shadow burst forth from the dust, lunging at Lu Qing.
Lu Qing sensed the warning in his heart, and when he saw the figure of the shadow, his pupils suddenly constricted.
Without hesitation, propelled by his thoughts, the breeze wrapping around him violently shook, allowing him to adroitly evade the attack.
Whoosh!
An unexpected gust swept by, just grazing Lu Qing’s body.
And not far away, Wei Xinghe and the others witnessed a scene they would never forget.
For they saw a gigantic black hand emerge from the dust, reaching for Lu Qing in midair.
The huge black hand, missing its first strike, made a swift turn and swiped at Lu Qing again.
The force of the palm whipped up a gust like a furious roar, causing Lu Qing in midair to almost lose his balance.
The massive hand nearly hit him, leaving Wei Xinghe and the others trembling with fear.
But thanks to Lu Qing’s excellent talismanic magic, he managed to steady himself at the last moment, dodging the black hand’s strike.
Then, invoking the breeze around him, he rapidly descended to the ground.
After all, his realm was still merely at the Qi Refinement level, and his ability to stay in the air relied on the power of talismans, preventing him from exerting his true strength.
Strength arises from the ground, and only on solid ground could he fight better.
However, just as Lu Qing dodged the giant black hand and was about to land,
Another massive black hand, not yet cleared by the scattering dust, reached out, and alongside the other hand, from above and below, they moved to clap Lu Qing caught between them in midair.
This sudden strike, aided by the violent winds, made it difficult for Lu Qing to stir the breeze around him.
Ultimately, Lu Qing was unable to evade in time and was caught and fiercely struck by the pair of giant black hands!
"Young Master Lu!"
Wei Xinghe, not far away, was shocked by the scene and cried out in alarm.
And it was the whirlwind caused by this strike that gradually dispersed the dust covering the city gate, revealing the true form of that huge shadow.
When they saw what it was, everyone’s eyes widened, and their bodies trembled.
