Chapter 1014: Chapter 643: Trial Land, Conflict, and a Small Fortune (Part 2)
"What intention is this?" One of the three said coldly, "Kid, don’t play dumb. If you’re smart, hand over the Trial Jade Talisman, and maybe we three brothers might spare your life!"
"You want my Trial Jade Talisman, are you from the Netherworld Palace?" Lu Qing asked.
He had already sensed that there were still many people hidden in the mountain forest below.
But they were all scattered and seemed to be cautious about something.
And watching the conflict in the sky, they did not intend to stop it, remaining hidden.
Feeling these anomalies, Lu Qing immediately had a bit of understanding in his heart.
He remembered what the old man said when he obtained the Trial Jade Talisman.
The trial of the Netherworld Palace recognizes the jade talisman, not the person.
The three people across were stunned hearing Lu Qing’s words, exchanged glances, and then the man who spoke earlier nodded directly.
"That’s right, we are indeed the officials hosting this trial for the Netherworld Palace. Now hand over your Trial Jade Talisman, and you can enter."
"Really? How come it doesn’t seem right? Are there such weak people in the Netherworld Palace?" Lu Qing still said in a calm tone.
"Kid courting death!"
Hearing this, the three immediately realized they were being played by the Ghost Face kid in front of them, and they were furious.
Then the three made their move simultaneously, unleashing their best Taoist Skills, attacking Lu Qing.
Their aura exploded, revealing two Golden Core Seventh Turn and one Golden Core Fifth Turn experts.
In each move, there was a hidden sense of Array, and the connection of the flow strengthened the power significantly.
Although Lu Qing managed to dodge their ambush of Sword Qi earlier, making the three realize this Ghost Face kid in front of them is not simple.
But the three brothers were confident, even against the pinnacle Golden Core of Eight or Nine Turns, they still had the strength to fight.
Even if this kid had hidden strength, he surely wouldn’t be their opponent.
They had come early to this place and were ambushing for a long time. Rarely did they encounter this Ghost Face kid with weak aura, they must secure a Trial Jade Talisman for their third brother.
That way, when they enter the Trial Land, working together, their probability of passing the trial would be much higher.
The three attacked with anger, murderous intent born in their hearts, their Taoist Skills unleashed terrifying power, even the strong in the late Golden Core Realm would be burst open.
If Lu Qing was indeed the realm he displayed, he would surely be blasted into smithereens.
However, facing the encirclement of the three, Lu Qing didn’t even intend to dodge.
The next moment, countless Sword Qi generated out of thin air in front of him, forming a river of Sword Qi, sweeping forward.
Where the Sword Qi reached, it cut through everything, whether the Sword Light, Gang Qi, or Magical Treasure of the three, in front of Lu Qing’s Sword Qi, it was like tofu, instantly shattered.
After the river of Sword Qi shattered all attacks, its power did not weaken, continuing to sweep towards the three.
"Ah! No good!"
"Quickly form an array to block!"
"How can it be so strong!"
"Big brother, can’t hold it!"
"Spare us, spare us!"
"Ah!"
...
Amidst a series of miserable screams, the three Golden Core Realm were directly slashed into a mist of blood by countless Sword Qi, leaving only a few Magical Treasures and Storage Magical Artifacts behind in place.
Lu Qing moved his mind slightly and had already collected everything.
It was not until then that the other hidden strongmen in the mountain forest below were shaken in heart and spirit, unable to believe what they saw.
Simultaneously, an idea rose in their minds at the same time.
"This person’s swordsmanship and divine skills are terrifying beyond measure!"
Those daring to come to the Netherworld Palace trial were almost all very proud powerhouses.
The true identities of some were even prodigious disciples in powerful factions.
But at this moment, everyone was shocked by Lu Qing’s scene of instantly slaying three Golden Core Realm experts single-handedly.
In the first moment, a decision was made in their hearts: When truly entering the Trial Land, if encountering this person, absolutely do not get into conflict.
No choice, two Golden Core Seventh Turns, plus a Golden Core Fifth Turn expert, and even under a formed Array, still could not withstand Lu Qing’s move.
Everyone predicted that this mysterious Ghost Face masked individual was probably at least an expert in the Golden Core Eighth Turn Perfection.
Some even began wildly guessing in their hearts which Sword Dao Sect’s core true disciple Lu Qing was.
As for Lu Qing, after collecting the relics of the three, he moved forward, found a place devoid of people, and landed.
But this time, no one dared to obstruct him anymore.
"Originally, I wanted not to be so high-profile, to first figure out the situation of this trial before deciding. Unexpectedly, I encountered such an event."
Lu Qing shook his head slightly.
According to the Five Magical Treasure Daoist’s original statement, the Netherworld Palace’s trial each time was different.
Therefore, before truly entering the Trial Land, no one knows what they will face.
Lu Qing originally intended to act low-key, to first observe the situation before speaking, but did not expect, just to arrive, encountered such an awkward event.
"Whatever, in this way, hopefully no one dares to provoke me anymore, which also avoids some unnecessary troubles."
Lu Qing casually scattered a few Jade Talismans, landing on the ground, forming a simple Array, hiding his figure and aura.
He had just checked it out, the valley below was enveloped by an invisible spatial fluctuation, unable to enter at will.
Combining with the strong hidden in this mountain forest, and the time mentioned in the Trial Jade Talisman.
Lu Qing estimated that before the time recorded in the jade talisman arrives, this valley is probably not going to open.
Thus he decided to hide in the mountain forest like others, waiting quietly.
Things were just as Lu Qing guessed.
During the waiting period, some strongmen arrived one after another.
Among them, some even broke out in combat.
Through their conversations, Lu Qing came to know, that the Trial Jade Talisman issued in each Netherworld Palace’s stronghold for each trial is limited.
Meaning, even if the strength is achieved, not everyone can necessarily get the Trial Jade Talisman.
This led some people to start thinking about taking action before the trial truly begins, to seize the Trial Jade Talisman.
After all, the Netherworld Palace recognizes only the talisman, not the person. The holder of the talisman can participate in the trial.
The three who wanted to rob Lu Qing earlier were precisely like this.
Originally, the three brothers had gone to great lengths to finally find a Netherworld Palace stronghold. However, they were told there were only two Trial Jade Talismans left.
In order to gather enough talismans, the three attempted to rob Lu Qing but ended up kicking a big iron plate, falling into a state of death and annihilation.
Regarding the subsequent battles, Lu Qing merely watched quietly, without any action.
Those strong enough to come for the Netherworld Palace trial were not easy to deal with.
Death was their own doing, so there was no psychological fluctuation for him.
Lu Qing waited quietly, seeing that it was about the time recorded in the jade talisman, suddenly, two figures appeared not far from where he had set up his array.
The two looked around but did not see the person they wanted to meet.
One of them became anxious and shouted, "Is the Ghost Face senior nearby? We have urgent matters to request your presence!"
Looking for him?
Lu Qing’s heart stirred, he thought for a moment and removed the array: "What do you want with me?"
Lu Qing’s sudden appearance startled the two.
They hadn’t expected Lu Qing to be right next to them, yet they were completely unaware.
This ability to conceal his aura, combined with the terrifying power displayed earlier.
Immediately, the two showed a look of awe and made a bow to Lu Qing.
One of them spoke, "Ghost Face senior, earlier you killed those three Golden Core Realms, may I know if there’s an extra Trial Jade Talisman? If so, could it be given to us?"
"You want a Trial Jade Talisman? Sure, exchange it for Spirit Stones."
Lu Qing said directly without hesitation after hearing this.
The two were delighted, not expecting Lu Qing to be so agreeable.
"I wonder how many Spirit Stones senior wants to give out this Trial Jade Talisman?" one asked respectfully.
"It’s about how many Spirit Stones you’re willing to pay to buy the talisman. Name a price, let me see your sincerity."
The two exchanged glances, one spoke cautiously, "We don’t carry many Spirit Stones, would ten thousand Spirit Stones per talisman satisfy you?"
"Middle Grade Spirit Stones?"
The person smiled bitterly, "Senior must be joking, naturally it’s Lower Grade Spirit Stones."
"Alright."
Lu Qing directly took out two Trial Jade Talismans and tossed them over.
The two were overjoyed, taking the talismans and carefully handing over the Spirit Stones to Lu Qing.
