In the end, even using the forbidden move of burning the Primordial Spirit, which is akin to mutual destruction, did not manage to kill Lu Qing, only severely injuring him.
For a moment, the Primordial Spirit realm individuals looked at Lu Qing as if they were looking at some monster.
A sense of disbelief mingled with deep wariness.
Some of the Primordial Spirit realm individuals even felt a surge of relief in their hearts.
Luckily, they hadn’t attacked Lu Qing earlier; otherwise, the dead body might have been theirs.
Lu Qing beheaded two Primordial Spirits; if the slaying of Lanhai Sect’s Supreme Elder was a surprise attack, catching the opponent off guard.
The battle with Mystic Sword was a head-on confrontation.
Almost with overwhelming force, he killed the opponent.
In other words, although his realm was still at the Golden Core level, his actual combat strength had completely stepped into the Primordial Spirit realm.
Some even began to doubt whether Lu Qing was genuinely at the Golden Core realm.
"Mystic Sword underestimated the situation."
At the location of the Overlord Clan, Ba Chunqiu spoke slowly after a moment of silence.
"As a sword cultivator, he excels in speed and offense.
But because he feared the opponent’s physical power, worried he’d end up like elder Qiu, being ambushed and having his physical body exploded, he chose to evolve a Sword Light Formation to guard himself.
Yet in doing so, he limited himself and couldn’t leverage the true advantage of a sword cultivator.
As a result, when the cauldron-type Spiritual Artifact struck, he couldn’t dodge in time.
He ultimately was found at a loss, step after step.
Choosing short over long in fear, opting for defense, his defeat in this battle was deserved."
The surrounding Primordial Spirit realm individuals heard this and remained silent.
They knew Ba Chunqiu was right.
Mystic Sword’s recent battle was indeed too conservative, not truly showcasing the combat style of a sword cultivator.
But deep down, if they had been in his place, they probably would have made the same choice as Mystic Sword.
The young man’s physical body was too terrifying, even stronger than their Primordial Spirit bodies.
If he ever got close, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Anyone would have to be wary.
"Mr. Chen..."
Qin Zheng and Ye Qingzhu, among others, watched this scene with a mix of shock and worry.
Shocked at yet another Primordial Spirit Great Power being slain by him, and worried because Lu Qing was now seriously injured; what would happen next, with so many Primordial Spirit Great Powers eyeing like tigers?
As for others at the Golden Core realm, there’s even less to say.
Looking at Lu Qing now, their eyes were filled with reverence.
No one expected that this person, already formidable in the secret realm, would become even more fierce upon coming out.
Even Primordial Spirit Great Powers have fallen at his hands.
People like Gongshu Yu from the Gongsu Family, who once had ill intentions towards Lu Qing, were extremely fortunate for not acting against him in the secret realm.
If they had, they would have likely been corpses in the secret realm.
As for those who did take action against Lu Qing, like the Lanhai Sect and Xuanyuan Sect’s Golden Core disciples, they’d long turned pale.
Looking at Lu Qing’s figure, they trembled as if seeing a demon.
Their hearts were filled with endless regret.
What kind of monster did they provoke back then!
"Primordial Spirit realm, indeed not easy to kill."
In mid-air, Lu Qing was feeling a bit fearful.
Mystic Sword Elder’s final move truly surprised him.
At the cost of burning the Primordial Spirit, driving the Flying Sword to unleash an earth-shattering strike.
If it were anyone else, even a Primordial Spirit Great Power of the same level, at this distance they’d likely suffer, ending in mutual destruction.
It’s just that his Life Energy was powerful, even with a shattered head, he couldn’t die, enabling him to withstand this move.
With a thought, surging Life Energy flooded within him, and Lu Qing’s shattered half head quickly regrew.
In less than ten breaths, it was completely restored, with no signs of injury visible.
This sight left all the observers astounded once more.
He collected Mystic Sword Elder’s corpse, along with that small white sword.
Standing proudly in the air, looking at the other Primordial Spirit realm individuals, he said calmly, "Is there anyone else who wants to give pointers?"
Seeing Lu Qing’s injuries fully recovered, his aura not diminished at all.
