Chapter 583: Chapter 375: Reactions from All Sides, The World Trembles
Lu Qing controlled the golden small boat, swiftly flying through the air.
At the sa ti, he remained vigilant of what was behind him.
However, even after he had flown far from the Lingshan Mountain Range, he noticed no one was pursuing him.
He imdiately understood that the opponent was apprehensive and dared not follow.
He found a secluded forested area, descended, and hid himself.
Then, he set up a simple array to conceal his aura.
After completing all these tasks, Lu Qing finally relaxed his heart and spirit.
This ti his sudden attack on Suspended Mountain was indeed a bit of a gamble.
Although the Leaving Fire Tripod was unparalleled in power and mostly controlled by “Yan”,
even so, the preparation of that strike had consud a significant amount of spiritual power.
Had Suspended Mountain been prepared, it would not have been so easy for him to escape.
Lu Qing did not believe that with his current level of cultivation, by activating the Leaving Fire Tripod, he could truly obliterate Suspended Mountain.
Just look at that red-faced Old Monk, a high-level cultivator in the Foundation Establishnt Stage with strong survival capabilities, not so easily killed.
Fortunately, it seed that Suspended Mountain had not anticipated that soone would be so audacious as to directly attack their headquarters.
“This ti, Suspended Mountain should be preoccupied for a while.”
Lu Qing muttered to himself softly.
He didn’t regret failing to kill the red-faced Old Monk.
With the opponent severely injured like that, it would take several years to recover, if at all feasible.
And even if recovery was possible, considering his age, such a severe blow to his primordial qi and foundational damage would make the chances of advancing to the Golden Core Realm incredibly slim.
After all, the power of a Spiritual Artifact was no laughing matter.
An attack containing a trace of the Power of Laws in the spiritual fire was enough to severely damage his foundation.
Thus, whether the red-faced Old Monk was dead or not didn’t concern Lu Qing too much.
With this attack, he had eliminated so many elite disciples of Suspended Mountain, enough to hurt them for a while.
For the foreseeable future, Suspended Mountain would likely focus on self-preservation, lacking the energy to do anything else.
This also indirectly alleviated the crisis for Jiuli Village and the Wei Family.
“Ah Qing, you’re amazing!”
Little Li popped out from Lu Qing’s embrace, eyes gleaming with admiration as he looked up at Lu Qing.
The little fella had truly been shocked earlier.
He hadn’t expected that the big cauldron Lu Qing usually used for concoctions could be so powerful.
Just one strike had blasted a huge hole into a mountain peak, and even it felt a tremor in its heart and spirit.
“It’s just the magical treasure that’s powerful,” Lu Qing rubbed the little fella’s head, “you be my protector for a bit, I need to go into seclusion to recover.”
This ti, although it was mostly “Yan” leading the effort, activating the Leaving Fire Tripod had still significantly drained Lu Qing.
It was only because he practiced the Five Elents Body Refining Technique that his spiritual power was several tis more abundant than cultivators of the sa level, and due to the Five Elents Gourd, the purity of his spiritual power was comparable to that of soone in the Foundation Establishnt Stage.
If it had been another cultivator in the Qi Refinent Realm, they might have been drained dry just activating the Leaving Fire Tripod, not even capable of triggering it.
“Okay~” Little Li obediently responded.
As Lu Qing went into seclusion for cultivation, word about the attack on Suspended Mountain also began to spread.
The incident at Lingshan Mountain Range was too loud to conceal from those paying attention.
During this period, every major power had been sending people to West State to gather news.
Who knows how many were watching over the situation at Lingshan Mountain Range.
Moreover, before Lu Qing attacked, he hadn’t even bothered to conceal his tracks.
The scene of golden light streaking across the sky was witnessed by many spies.
Even the scene of Lu Qing wielding the Leaving Fire Tripod and bombarding Lingshan was seen by quite a few spies who had been lurking on the periphery of the mountain.
Not long after Lu Qing left, the news that Lingshan Mountain Range had been attacked and Suspended Mountain had suffered heavy losses was passed around and quickly spread throughout West State within a few days.
Suddenly, the entire West State was buzzing with excitent.
“Is it true, did that mysterious powerhouse really dare to attack Suspended Mountain all by himself?”
“That can’t be fake; so many people saw it happen, and the great fire over at Lingshan Mountain Range hasn’t even been extinguished yet!”
“Rumor has it that Suspended Mountain suffered heavy losses this ti, losing many elite disciples and elders; is it true?”
“It’s absolutely true; you should have seen that terrifying strike by the mysterious powerhouse, it was truly fearso. The rumors are that what the mysterious powerhouse used was a legendary Immortal Treasure, in one strike the ground shook and the mountains trembled, and the disciples of Suspended Mountain couldn’t even escape before they were buried in the sea of fire.”
“Immortal Treasures! Was that mysterious powerhouse a legendary cultivator?!”
“It seems so; no wonder he dared to challenge Suspended Mountain. Turns out he was one of the legendary immortals. Who knows why Suspended Mountain offended such a terrifying existence.”
“That’s better, Suspended Mountain has been hidden for ten thousand years, now with the revival of spiritual energy, they just erged and want to dominate all of West State, forcing us to submit to them.
Now with this mysterious powerhouse present, let’s see how they continue to be so arrogant!”
“Exactly, that group of greedy monks, not only do they force us to submit, they even want to seize more than half of our sect’s wealth, making us offer tributes every month. That mysterious powerhouse is truly delivering justice from heaven!”
“Well said, Suspended Mountain’s heavy losses this ti show that even the Four Great Secret Places are not invincible. This might be an opportunity for us!”
…
The attack on Suspended Mountain and their heavy losses stirred much commotion and attention across West State.
But the vast majority, besides being shocked, felt a malicious pleasure and satisfaction.
