Her Origin Source was the True Spirit formed from the transformation of plants and trees.
Having perused numerous scrolls, she had never heard of anyone whose Origin Source could generate spiritual awareness.
This secret was known only to her and her master, and it had never been disclosed to outsiders.
Hu Qing slowly rose, looked up at the girl on the willow tree, revealed a faint smile, and spoke, “We should leave!”
“Alright!” Jiang Shang nodded in agreement, also feeling joyful.
In this ruins, she was truly bored.
Jiang Shang jumped down from the willow tree, but when she touched the ground, there was a ripple in her Origin Source.
It was a tremor of the Origin Source!
Jiang Shang’s expression instantly turned cold, and her state of mind shattered.
“It’s okay, I’m here!” Hu Qing placed a hand on Jiang Shang’s shoulder, helping her stabilize her state of mind, her eyes filled with wisdom.
He stopped practicing not because they needed to leave, but because someone had arrived.
Moreover, it seemed to be someone familiar.
In the depths of the ruins, within the black mist, a figure slowly approached, towering and imposing, with a terrifying aura emanating from the green battle armor on their body.
The mist on the ruins rose, accompanied by a destructive roar. However, the green-armored figure, without any haste, casually tore apart a beast in the ruins comparable to a tier 5 Emperor. He then walked towards Hu Qing and Jiang Shang.
The oppressive feeling made Jiang Shang’s gaze contract, and the Spirit of Grass and Wood within her body was also horrified.
Hu Qing looked up, not showing any surprise, but rather remained calm.
Staring at the figure in green armor, he said indifferently, “Why bother, after following for so long!”
Crack!
The green-armored figure stopped, crushing the brown skeletal remains on the ground, making a crunching sound.
“I had no intention, but the Origin Source has a will. Hu Qing, I have high hopes for you. I hope you can understand!”
The figure in the green armor spoke, and the black mist receded, revealing his appearance.
The newcomer was none other than the Lord of the Azure Dragon Temple, the most powerful supreme-peak expert in the Qishen Temple aside from the Zhen Ling. His strength was terrifying, far beyond the simplicity of a Half-Step Tribulation realm. He was a super powerhouse capable of matching those in the Tribulation realm, slightly weaker than the former Emperor Jueyun.
If he were to challenge the Beiwang Tower, he could easily pass at least 80 floors, surpassing even those Divine Generals.
Such a character had been secretly following Hu Qing.
What was even more terrifying was that Hu Qing was aware of it.
As he approached, Jiang Shang dared not meet the gaze of the Master of the Azure Dragon Temple. Her eyes constantly darting around, she retreating behind Hu Qing.
She had seen Long Yi before, in the capital of Great Xia, but at that time, Long Yi’s target was not them, so there wasn’t much pressure. Now, facing him directly, she felt the true terror he possessed.
Hu Qing remained calm, saying, “Since the Lord has no intention, why bother making things difficult for my disciple!”
“Do you really want to protect her?” Long Yi furrowed his brows slightly.
Since Hu Qing could detect him, he understood that he had not come for her but for Jiang Shang.
The Spirit of Grass and Wood within Jiang Shang’s body was the biggest hidden danger in the Forest of Eternal Secrets and had to be eliminated.
Zhen Ling had no hesitation about this. As long as the opponent’s strength exceeded his bottom line, he would immediately take action.
Compared to other threats, the Spirit of Grass and Wood was more terrifying.
As the saying goes, two tigers cannot share one mountain. Qishen Temple had only one True Spirit, and that was Zhen Ling. There couldn’t be a second one.
The Origin Source True Spirit could devour and take over each other, and this was the reason why Zhen Ling wanted to kill Jiang Shang.
So, he directly dispatched Long Yi to secretly keep an eye on her.
Unfortunately, Hu Qing had always kept Jiang Shang by his side and never gave Long Yi a chance to make a move.
Now, Jiang Shang’s strength had reached the level of a tier 6 Emperor, and the Origin Source True Spirit had advanced to the supreme-peak level.
Zhen Ling couldn’t tolerate it any longer, and with the pressure from Gu Jun, there was no room for mercy.
Even if he felt resentful towards Hu Qing, Jiang Shang had to be eliminated.
Long Yi remained silent this time, sighing inwardly. He understood the specific reasons, having observed for so many years. However, as one of the Four Great Temple Masters, his existence was originally for the purpose of cultivating Inheritors. Now, he found it somewhat difficult to lay hands on one.
After all, Hu Qing had not betrayed the Qishen Temple like Jian Wushuang. Instead, he had diligently cultivated and felt gratitude towards the temple. His personality, mindset, and potential were all strong, making him a candidate for the three Divine Masters in the future.
Among the current Inheritors, many had received the inheritance of the three Divine Masters, but very few could ultimately inherit it. However, Hu Qing possessed both the potential and the strength.
Such a super Inheritor, a future powerhouse, was now heading towards confrontation.
It was truly a pity.
Buzz!
Long Yi’s aura surged, emitting an unmatched presence. He still hoped to make Hu Qing back down, but stopping him was simply impossible!
Knowing Hu Qing’s character, he still had to do it, showing how highly he valued Hu Qing.
Not only the Azure Dragon Temple, but even the White Tiger Temple and Vermilion Bird Temple held high regard for Hu Qing. They provided full support in terms of resources, and Zhen Ling went all out to open the Three Kings’ legacy for Hu Qing, enabling him to successfully integrate with the Dao.
“Let’s begin!” A radiant light shone at the center of Hu Qing’s eyebrows, determination evident in his eyes. He couldn’t abandon his disciple.
He also had a heart, a heart to protect, something he had learned from his master.
In the midst of the Great Desoalte Wilderness battle, facing an army of billions of skeletons, the Nine Revolutions Grand Yan Immortal, and those who guarded him did not retreat, bravely sacrificing themselves. 𝖋𝖗𝖊𝖊𝔴𝖊𝖇𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖊𝖑.𝖈𝖔𝖒
Now, it was his turn, and how could he retreat? How could he even imagine retreating?
If he were to retreat, it would be a violation of his own Dao Heart, and he would never be able to reach the pinnacle in his lifetime.
To protect everything he held dear, he was willing to fight!
“Mentor, I won’t disgrace you!”
With robes fluttering, in the mire, a white-robed monk’s aura shook the heavens, dispersing enemies for miles around.
Long Yi’s hands raised in defense, shock in his heart!
Just a breath, and it could force him to retreat.
“How is this possible?”
To be able to force him back, how strong was Hu Qing’s power? Yet he clearly felt that Hu Qing was only peak-level tier 6 Emperor.
How could he become so powerful?
“You actually hid your strength!” Long Yi’s pupils contracted, staring at Hu Qing in disbelief.
Hu Qing clasped his hands together, his expression stern, lacking the kindness and gentleness of the past.
“Virtuous!”
This dignified demeanor was the true state of being at ease.
Long Yi soared into the air, his aura skyrocketing once again, a joyful expression on his face, saying, “It seems there’s going to be a big battle.”
Originally expecting to crush the opponent, he didn’t expect that Hu Qing had also hidden his strength. He had to take this seriously.
At this moment, he was also excited. He hadn’t expected Hu Qing’s potential to become so strong. In just a few years, he had reached the supreme-peak level.
“Please!” Hu Qing raised his hand, making a gesture of invitation.
But this time, neither of them was polite. They directly engaged in close combat.
Two immense auras clashed violently, causing Jiang Shang to retreat to a distant spot, her complexion turning pale.
Although neither of them explicitly mentioned it, she had some suspicions. It was likely that Long Yi’s arrival was somehow connected to her.
She had heard of Long Yi’s formidable strength and was deeply concerned for her master. Hu Qing, being her only living relative, was someone she would not allow to depart from her side, especially after the loss of her brother.
