203: Battle with the Innate, Sever the Limbs!
“This is impossible!”
Old Woman Zheng, clutching her severed arm, looked at Lu Qing with disbelief.
At this moment, where was there a trace of the previous fatigue and weakness in Lu Qing?
The strong aura emanating from his entire body, the surging power of Qi and Blood, was so oppressive that even she, an Innate Realm expert, felt a sense of suffocation.
“You little beast, who on earth are you?”
Old Woman Zheng couldn’t help but ask sternly.
The shock in her heart had surpassed the pain of her severed arm.
How could she not know that Lu Qing’s previous weakness was feigned?
But she also found it hard to understand why Lu Qing was so powerful.
Clearly not an Innate Realm expert, yet he was able to unleash such a terrifying force.
That strike just now came too fast, and she had almost no time to react.
If it weren’t for the Divine Soul instinct of an Innate Realm Martial Artist, which allowed her to turn her body at the last moment, she would probably be more than just an arm short by now; she would be cleaved in two.

Moreover, she had seen very clearly that Lu Qing was unarmed just now and did not carry a weapon; so where did the long saber, now revealing a terrifying sharp edge in his hand, come from?
Could it be that he had premeditated this, hiding the weapon behind Da Shi, and had calculated that she would pursue him at this moment?
If that was the case, the craftiness of this little beast was simply too terrifying!
A series of thoughts and guesses flooded Old Woman Zheng’s mind in an instant, chilling her heart even more.
“This question, you’ll have time to find out when you’re down underground!”
Lu Qing, however, had no interest in answering this question.
Having landed a successful strike, he well understood the principle of striking at one’s weak moment to take their life.
The old witch might have lost an arm to his blade, but her Cultivation remained, and she was still a formidable enemy not to be underestimated.
His elaborate plans had lured this old witch out of the city, not for a friendly chat.
Thus, without the slightest hesitation, Lu Qing took advantage of the old woman’s moment of mental instability and fiercely struck again, a bright sword light slashing toward her once more.
“You little beast, don’t be smug, even if you caught me off guard and I lost an arm, the ancestor of the Zheng Family can still kill you!”
Having experienced Lu Qing’s cunning and ruthless tactics, Old Woman Zheng understood that this was a life-and-death moment. If she held anything back, she feared she might truly meet her end here today.
Without hesitation, the Innate True Qi within her body circulated in a strange trajectory, fiercely stimulating the acupoints all over her body.
The aura on her body suddenly doubled.
Meanwhile, her intact right hand gripped the dragon-headed cane tightly and violently struck at Lu Qing.
Clang!
The dragon-headed cane blocked Lu Qing’s long saber, forcing him to retreat several steps.
“Innate Level Burst Secret Method?”
Feeling the sudden increase in the old witch’s aura, Lu Qing understood in his heart.
He was not completely ignorant of the Innate Level Burst Secret Method.
After all, in his mind, he possessed a top-tier Innate Realm legacy.
Of course, it also included the inheritance of secret techniques.
To be strict, the Innate Level Burst Secret Method wasn’t fundamentally different from the Postnatal Realm’s Qi-Blood Burst Secret Method.
Both relied on the body’s internal energy to stimulate various vital acupoints, unlocking potential to obtain greater power in a short period of time.
Just that Innate Realm Experts, when stepping into the Innate Realm, are baptized by the Heaven and Earth Laws, their physical bodies having undergone a transformation and enhancement once.
Ordinary Qi-Blood Power is already insufficient to stimulate the physical body; only by circulating Innate True Qi and stimulating crucial acupoints can one continue to unleash the body’s potential.
Moreover, Innate Level Burst Secret Methods vary in strength.
Normal secret techniques can at most double one’s own strength, and those that achieve a twofold effect are already considered outstanding secret techniques.
As for those exceeding twofold effects, they are extremely precious.
Even within those top Sect Forces, they are few and highly valued.
After all, a good Innate Level explosive secret technique can allow an Innate Realm Expert to instantly burst forth with several times their power. At critical moments, it can be life-saving and thus truly a life-saving secret method.
In Lu Qing’s previous estimation of the Zheng Family’s Ancestor’s strength, the only uncertainty was the extent of power her explosive secret technique held.
Now feeling that her aura had only increased by about double,
He knew that this old woman possessed only the most ordinary explosive secret technique.
In that case… things just got a lot simpler.
A trace of coldness appeared in Lu Qing’s eyes.
