Chapter 861: Chapter 557: Frenzied Battle, Recognizing True Strength (Part 2)
The armored Great Han thought for a moment and felt it made sense.
A Primordial Spirit Great Power, as long as the strength difference isn’t too vast, defeating them might be easy, but killing them is exceedingly difficult.
Moreover, recalling earlier when Lu Qing fought the Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast, he didn’t look like he was at any disadvantage.
Thinking of this, the armored Great Han felt more at ease.
He turned to ask, "Mr. Qiao, you’ve traveled together this far, do you know what background this senior has?"
"How would this old man know?" Mr. Qiao showed a bitter smile, "This senior is clearly keeping his identity hidden.
Since traveling with him, he rarely talks.
Not only his background, even his name, this old man still doesn’t know."
The middle-aged Great Han beside him nodded in deep agreement.
Among the five Golden Core Realm individuals in the same carriage, he and Lu Qing spoke the least.
He was not only taciturn, but also never introduced himself.
Thus, everyone’s understanding of him was minimal.
Only the skinny youth would occasionally mock Lu Qing.
Thinking of this, the middle-aged Great Han suddenly felt that Lu Qing had a remarkably good temper.
If it were him, being a Primordial Spirit Great Power, he would make sure the Golden Core Realm person pays a price for such offense.
At the same time, he felt even more fortunate that he hadn’t offended Lu Qing.
Otherwise, he really wouldn’t know how to face that senior.
"So it is, seems that this senior is one who likes to hide his identity and travel around, a high-level expert.
Just unknown whether he hails from a Top Sect or a noble family."
The armored Great Han couldn’t help but sigh.
As for whether Lu Qing was of the Evil Path, he hadn’t even considered.
If Lu Qing were of the Evil Path, how could he risk such danger, fighting the Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast alone to rescue them?
At the moment when Mr. Qiao and others were speculating about Lu Qing’s identity.
In Gale Plain, Lu Qing’s battle with the Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast continued relentlessly.
Boom!
Lu Qing once again sliced off the Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast’s arm with a powerful Little Sky Breaking Sword Qi.
But his brows furrowed.
In the battle so far, he had realized.
This Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast has very low spiritual wisdom.
It constantly repeats the same few moves, completely relying on instinct to fight.
Its moves are not only very clumsy but even its innate ability to control wind and sand is used immaturely.
Not to mention the Primordial Spirit Realm, any late-stage Golden Core Realm expert would undoubtedly be far more skillful in moves and Taoist skills.
Simply put, this Wind Beast, despite possessing Primordial Spirit Realm-level powers.
Its use of power is coarse and rudimentary, unable to fully harness its potential.
Yet even so, Lu Qing still couldn’t kill this Wind Beast.
The wind-sand body that this Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast condenses is truly formidable.
Even if he fully activates Little Sky Breaking Sword Qi, he can at most break apart part of its body.
Attempting to completely explode it in an instant is extremely challenging.
As for destroying the Wind Pearl, that’s even more impossible.
He even once used the Enchanting Soul Divine Skill, trying to attack its Divine Soul and destroy its spiritual nature.
But discovered, this Wind Beast, though low in spiritual wisdom and simple-minded.
Yet all its Heart and Spirit Will is hidden inside that Wind Pearl.
Protected by the Law of Wind, his Enchanting Soul Divine Skill can at most make its Heart and Spirit briefly muddled.
To control its Divine Soul is incredibly difficult.
"Unexpectedly, such a newly born Primordial Spirit Realm Demon Beast with extremely low spiritual wisdom is so troublesome."
He slashed off another claw of the Wind Beast again.
Seeing it quickly recover, Lu Qing felt helpless in his heart.
He understood, this battle was no longer necessary to continue.
Not even Enchanting Soul Divine Skill worked, other methods are even less likely to be effective.
With the Wind Beast’s Wind Pearl indestructible and immortal characteristic.
No matter how many times he slices off its claws, they can quickly recover.
While he is truly consuming his own Mana in the fight.
Though he possesses a Perfect Golden Core, his Mana is far thicker than cultivators of the same realm.
But continuing to fight carried no benefit for him.
After all, the purpose of this battle had already been achieved.
Fighting further would be in vain.
Thinking of this, Lu Qing unleashed two skyward Sword Qi strikes, intending to sever the claws that the Wind Beast was closing in on him to entrap.
His form shifted, drawing a mysterious arc in mid-air, and in an instant, he was completely out of the Wind Beast’s reach.
"You wretched creature, tough hide and flesh make you quite resilient."
Lu Qing hovered a few miles away from the Wind Beast, speaking casually.
"Today, I cannot defeat you, but once my cultivation is complete, I will surely return to Gale Plain to confront you again."
With that, his figure shimmered as he was already heading into the distance.
"Roar!"
The Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast, upon seeing that the ant who had killed many of its underlings and destroyed its body multiple times was attempting to flee, roared furiously.
With a roar, it waved its claws, and the wind and sand within a radius of tens of miles became violently turbulent.
Dozens of Wind Dragon Tornados appeared around Lu Qing, intending to crush him into oblivion.
"With just your crude method of manipulating wind and sand, you think you can block my path?"
Lu Qing, observing the apocalypse-like scene, was not the least bit alarmed. Instead, he chuckled lightly.
He then moved like light smoke, as agile as a Spirit Butterfly, slipping effortlessly through the gaps among the Wind Dragon Tornados.
The surrounding violent wind and sand had no impact whatsoever on his movement technique.
"Roar!"
Seeing Lu Qing break free from the encirclement of the Wind Dragon Tornados and vanish in the blink of an eye,
The Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast let out a thunderous roar.
Nearby wind and sand grew even more violent.
Its own body dissolved, merging into the endless wind and sand, chasing in the direction Lu Qing had left.
However, all this was in vain.
It chased until it reached the edge of the Gale Plain but saw no sign of Lu Qing.
Gazing beyond the Gale Plain at the lush, continuous mountain range,
The Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast knew that the ant had completely escaped.
Thus, furious roars echoed once more throughout the Gale Plain.
"It seems not even a Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast can escape the speed of the Gale Plain."
In the mountains, hearing the roars, Lu Qing mused silently.
He was now within a concealed cave.
Beside him, a great serpent trembled, staring at him without daring to move.
Lu Qing paid no attention to the creature, setting up an Array to conceal his aura at the cave’s entrance, releasing Little Li and the Five Elements from the Qiankun Qi Bag.
"Ah Qing!" Little Li, in gray attire, called out immediately upon emerging, "Did you defeat that big fellow?"
Previously in Gale Plain, Little Li had remained hidden within Lu Qing’s embrace.
Only after the Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast appeared did Lu Qing place it into the Qiankun Qi Bag.
Thus, Little Li hadn’t witnessed the final battle.
"No." Lu Qing shook his head, "The Primordial Spirit Realm is indeed formidable. Though the Wind Beast is dull-witted, neither of us could get the better of the other."
"Even you couldn’t defeat that giant Wind Beast?"
Little Li exclaimed upon hearing this.
In its heart, Lu Qing had always been incredibly formidable, with scarcely any enemy he couldn’t defeat.
It hadn’t expected the clumsy-looking beast would be such an adversary even for Ah Qing.
"Indeed, the Primordial Spirit Realm is still the Primordial Spirit Realm. With my current strength, defeating a Primordial Spirit Great Power is still somewhat out of reach."
Lu Qing sighed.
In Gale Plain, he had chosen to intervene.
Not only because he didn’t want to see that caravan perish here.
More importantly, he sought to test his own strength against the Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast.
Yet now, despite having stepped into the Golden Core Fifth Turn realm,
competing against a being of the Primordial Spirit Realm level remains beyond his capabilities.
That Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast, low in spiritual wisdom, clumsy in moves, not even fully mastering its innate abilities.
Among Primordial Spirit Realm beings, it would belong to the lowest tier.
But even so, he couldn’t do anything to it, unable to truly harm it.
Thus, one can imagine, if matched against Cultivators who’ve trained for ages, mastering all their Divine Skills completely within the Primordial Spirit Realm.
At present, he likely stands no chance of victory.
