Body and Soul Destroyed, Impossible to Divine

"Young master, don't be careless, be careful of his counterattack! Even if Golden Core Realm's head is destroyed, he won't die immediately!"

As Lu Qing slashed the White Robe Youth's head, the warning sound of "Flame" also rang in his mind.

Before he could finish speaking, a powerful surge of spiritual energy erupted from the White Robe Youth's body.

A torrent of divine souls surged toward Lu Qing.

At the same time, a phantom appeared and lunged at Lu Qing's brow; it was the soul of the White Robe Youth.

"Careful!"

Amidst the exclamation of "Yan," the White Robe Youth's soul was about to rush towards Lu Qing's brow.

A Golden Light emerged from Lu Qing's body, forming a phantom image of a magic robe that blocked the White Robe Youth's soul.

"Merit-based secret technique? Break it!"

The White Robe Youth's phantom face twisted, emitting screams of divine souls as it tried to break through the defenses of the Merit Dharma Garment.

But the next moment, with a hum, the phantom of an ancient cauldron appeared, completely protecting Lu Qing.

The overwhelming suppressive force landed on the White Robe Youth's illusory figure, and with a single tremor, it distorted and dissipated.

"No!!"

The White Robe Youth's illusory figure showed extreme panic in his eyes, desperately trying to maintain his illusory form.

But in the end, it could not withstand the shockwave of the Li Fire Cauldron and completely dissipated.

"You want to possess me?"

Seeing the White Robe Youth's soul completely dissipate, Lu Qing remained calm and shook his head.

Not to mention that he has the Merit Dharma Garment and the Li Fire Cauldron protecting him, so attacks on his soul have almost no effect on him.

Even if his brow acupoint were truly invaded, with the Earth Spirit Pearl and the Divine Soul Rune, he was confident that almost no cultivator below the Nascent Soul Realm could possess him.

"It actually worked!"

The figure of "Yan" appeared beside Lu Qing, looking at the lifeless corpse of the White Robe Youth, and murmured.

It couldn't believe that Lu Qing had actually succeeded in killing a Golden Core Realm.

Although it helped in the process, this White Robe Man was clearly not an ordinary Golden Core Realm.

To reverse the Golden Core stage at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm is something that has never happened before, even in the Ancient Cultivation Era.

When Lu Qing told it about the plan earlier, it thought it was too crazy.

Now, I am filled with awe.

In particular, the scene where Lu Qing completely overwhelmed the White Robe Youth was constantly impacting its mind.

"Is this the power of Divine Ability abilities? It is truly incredible and unfathomable."

Yan thought to himself.

"Let's go."

Lu Qing activated his Supernatural Ability, glanced at the White Robe Youth's corpse a few times, and after confirming that the other party was truly dead, he reached out and grabbed the corpse, throwing it into the Li Fire Cauldron.

Then it soared into the sky, Golden Shuttle appeared beneath its feet, and flew towards Nine Li Village.

Just as Lu Qing was returning to the village.

Central Province, atop a famous mountain and river.

The Gray Robe Man, who was in seclusion cultivating in seclusion, suddenly changed his expression drastically.

He took out two broken jade tablets from the Storage Magic Item.

"Junior Brother's Soul Tablet is broken?!"

The Gray Robe Man stared intently at the broken jade pendant in his hand, his eyes filled with disbelief.

No matter how he tried to sense it, he could no longer detect even a trace of his Junior Brother's soul aura from the jade tablet.

There is only one possibility in this situation.

That means my Junior Brother has been completely annihilated, body and soul gone! "What on earth happened?"

The Gray Robe Youth summoned an octagonal magical Artifact, exhaled a breath of vital energy, and landed it on the Artifact to begin his calculations.

However, a moment later, his expression turned grim again.

Because no matter how he calculated it, it was all a blur.

Not only could they not figure out who killed their Junior Brother, they couldn't even figure out the exact location where their Junior Brother died.

"Is it because the Exotic Treasure shielded me from cause and effect, or is this Heavenly Dao interfering with me? Or perhaps, the murderer who killed my Junior Brother is far more powerful than me?"

In an instant, the Gray Robe Man's mind raced, and he made a number of guesses.

But he immediately dismissed the last hypothesis.

They have been in this Small World for some time now, and they know that this Small World has only recently been revived.

In such a short period of time, it is simply impossible for someone of a higher level to emerge.

If such a terrifying being truly existed, it would be impossible to tolerate the domineering behavior of the two Senior Brother in Central Province during this period.

Unless there is a terrifying being far superior to him.

So, the remaining reasons are the two mentioned earlier.

"Is it Exotic Treasure, or the will of this Will of the Heavens, or perhaps both? Junior Brother, I've told you before, don't commit murder so easily."

Your demise may very well be a consequence of the many atrocities you committed in the past.

The Gray Robe Man pondered silently.

After a while, he calmed his mind, entered a meditative state, and began his cultivation.

"No matter what the reason is, don't worry, Junior Brother, I will avenge you."

"If the murderer is not found, I will make every living being in this world pay with their life!"

A streak of light Po Tian and finally landed in Nine Li Village.

"Master." Lu Qing landed in the Half-Mountain Courtyard.

"A Qing!"

"Young Master Lu!"

Seeing Lu Qing return safely, the Old Doctor and Lin Zhi Rui were all overjoyed.

"Young Master Lu, where is the White Robe Man?" Wei Shanhai asked hurriedly.

"I have already killed him," Lu Qing replied directly.

"Killed them?!"

Upon hearing this, everyone gasped.

They had all witnessed firsthand how terrifying the White Robe Man was.

The sheer power they exuded was enough to make them tremble.

Even Lu Qing, who was always considered invincible in their eyes, was chased and forced to flee in disarray.

But now Lu Qing turns around and tells them that he has already killed him? For a moment, Lin Zhi Rui and the others wondered if they had misheard.

"Um."

Lu Qing nodded, without explaining how he killed the White Robe Youth.

Instead, he turned to the Old Doctor and asked, "Master, how is everyone in the village?"

The Old Doctor's expression darkened. "Most of the villagers are fine, but a few elderly people have passed away because of the great shock they suffered."

Lu Qing's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately asked, "Grandpa Zhang...?"

"Old Zhang is fine. You often help him take care of his health, A Qing. He has plenty of energy and spirit. He just suffered a little shock and will recover after some treatment."

Upon hearing this, Lu Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Of all the villagers in Nine Li Village, he had the deepest affection for Grandpa Zhang.

Hearing that he was alright, I felt a little relieved.

However, after relaxing, a murderous intent resurfaced in his heart.

The villagers of Nine Li Village have always been kind to him and Xiao Yan, so he has always protected them.

This time, however, several elderly people who could have enjoyed their later years died because of that White Robe Man, which made him want to kill.
