"Young master, the opponent is a seasoned Golden Core cultivator. We may only have one chance."
The sound of "Yan" echoed in Lu Qing's mind.
"I know," Lu Qing replied telepathically.
Then, he paused, no longer fleeing. He shattered a huge boulder with one foot, and his body burst forth with layers of white mist. Like an arrow released from a bow, he shot into the air and turned to attack the white-robed youth high in the sky behind him.
At the same time, the mind is also communicating with two mysterious places within the body.
"Trying to get desperate?" The white-robed youth's eyes flashed with disdain. "But do you think I'd let you get close so easily?"
Before he could finish speaking, a palm of magical power had already materialized in front of him and struck towards Lu Qing.
Before the palm of magic could even touch Lu Qing, the powerful suppressive force had already caused his speed to drop sharply.
Then, with a swift movement, he grasped it in his palm.
"Finally caught you, you ant."
A smile appeared on the young man's face.
But the next moment, his expression changed.
Suddenly, a giant cauldron appeared behind Lu Qing, which not only pushed his Myriad Laws Palm open, but also completely sealed off the space within a radius of several miles with its powerful force!
"A magical artifact?!"
The white-robed youth blurted out, his expression changing drastically.
He never expected that Lu Qing possessed a magical artifact and had been holding back until now before finally using it.
Feeling the suppressive force on his body, the white-robed youth lost his previous composure.
He could sense that the spiritual weapon the other party possessed was of a high grade, enough to pose a threat to him!
In desperation, the white-robed youth immediately focused his mind, trying to activate the magical artifact within his body to break free from the sealing power.
But just as his mind was stirred, an invisible wave fell upon him, interrupting his concentration and causing illusions to appear before his eyes.
"Illusion? Break it!"
The white-robed youth was once again shocked and enraged. How could a body cultivator actually cast illusions and even create illusions for him?
A powerful surge of spiritual energy coursed through him. The white-robed youth, being a Golden Core Realm expert with an extremely strong will, instantly shattered the illusion.
But just as his mind cleared, a figure appeared before him.
Lu Qing, sword in hand, approached the white-robed youth with a cold gaze.
More importantly, the aura emanating from him was extremely terrifying, making the white-robed youth feel a deadly threat.
"No!"
The young man in white robes had no time to react and could only desperately activate the protective magic treasure within his body.
"die!"
The moment the white light appeared within the white-robed youth, Lu Qing's battle blade struck him like lightning.
boom!
The powerful collision created a violent shockwave high in the sky.
The clouds within a ten-mile radius were swept away and dissipated in an instant.
The white-robed youth's body was blasted down from the sky and crashed into the dense forest below, knocking down countless trees and carving a trail dozens of feet long.
"He's not dead. Is it a protective magic item?"
As soon as Lu Qing unleashed his slash, he immediately sensed something was wrong.
The white-robed youth was not cut in two by his sword, but instead struck something extremely tough.
He immediately realized that his opponent must have some kind of protective magic weapon that blocked his attack at the crucial moment.
"However, even with the protection of a magical artifact, this strike from me is not easy to bear."
Lu Qing sensed that the white-robed youth below was significantly weaker, his eyes filled with icy coldness. Without the slightest hesitation, he flew down to pursue him.
In the dense forest, the young man in white robes lay supine on the ground, his chest stained with bright red blood, and his imposing aura had diminished considerably.
He was protected by a white scale armor, on which a crack was clearly visible and was wriggling and repairing itself.
"Why has the strength of these ants suddenly increased so much?"
The young man in the white robe looked both surprised and fearful, filled with lingering dread.
If it weren't for the protective armor nurtured in his dantian automatically protecting him at the last moment, he would probably have been cut in two by a single strike and died on the spot.
What he found even more incomprehensible was that Lu Qing's sudden burst of strength had increased by more than ten times, to the point that even he was terrified.
Is this the strength a Foundation Establishment Perfection Body Cultivator should have?
Could it be that this kid used some secret method to conceal his true cultivation level?
But what kind of secret technique could possibly escape his perception, which was only at the Golden Core stage?
The young man in the white robe had a whirlwind of thoughts.
He then popped a pill into his mouth, and the magical energy within his body rapidly activated, quickly neutralizing the medicinal effects and healing his injuries.
Although his armor blocked Lu Qing's attack, the power contained within it still seriously injured him.
After all, although he was at the Golden Core stage, he followed the path of a Dharma cultivator.
While his physical strength is decent, it is still far inferior to that of a body cultivator.
The young man in white robes had just begun to absorb the effects of the medicine when, in the next instant, his pupils suddenly contracted.
With a sudden thought, he instantly unleashed several spells, forming a series of ice walls and water curtains in front of him to protect himself.
But less than a breath later, all the ice walls and water curtains shattered with a deafening roar.
Lu Qing's figure appeared amidst countless shattered ice droplets, his body radiating a deep red, flame-like light, and even the battle blade in his hand was covered with a layer of deep red light.
He appeared before the white-robed youth like a fiery king and slashed down with his sword.
"Ah! Block them!"
The white-robed youth desperately activated his condensation spell, and several layers of defensive spells quickly condensed in front of him in an attempt to block the attack.
His face was contorted, and his eyes were bloodshot; he no longer resembled a Golden Core Realm expert at all.
But just as the spell was about to take shape, an invisible shock surged into his mind, shaking his spirit and causing illusions to appear before his eyes.
"That illusion spell again! Break it!"
Driven by his survival instinct, the young man in the white robe was more determined than ever before.
The illusion appeared only for a moment before being shattered by his golden core will.
But it was precisely at this moment that his defensive spell ultimately failed to be fully completed.
Like a piece of paper, it was easily torn apart by Lu Qing's battle blade, and the blade struck him.
Lu Qing's knife was aimed straight at the head!
However, it must be said that the white-robed youth's armor was indeed extraordinary.
Just as Lu Qing's sword was about to cleave his head, the scales on his armor automatically extended, protecting his skull.
boom!
Lu Qing's blade struck the scales squarely.
As before, he still couldn't completely break the scales.
As expected of a treasure armor that could be chosen and refined by a Golden Core cultivator, it is truly indestructible.
However, the fact that the armor was not broken does not mean that the person inside is safe and sound.
"shock!"
Lu Qing immediately changed his move, and the blade trembled thousands of times in an instant, transmitting the power of the blade layer by layer.
The power carried by Lu Qing's strike was terrifying.
In addition, his superb swordsmanship, using the "Zhen" technique to transmit power.
Therefore, no matter how miraculous the scale armor was, it could not be completely neutralized.
Even if only a portion of the power was transmitted inside, it still made the white-robed youth's head feel as if it had been crushed by a mountain.
Even with magical protection, it would be completely useless.
It lasted for less than a breath before it exploded!
