This Sword Cultivator is Somewhat Dependable-Chapter 718 - 34: Is his name Li Feiyu?

At the heart of Falling Goose Pass, the majestic palace enveloped by the Great Formation was once the place used for holding discussions.

Whoosh!

A flash of Escaping Light, and Lu Qingshan appeared outside the grand palace, then promptly strode inside.

After entering the palace, he passed through a long corridor and eventually entered a grand hall.

There were several high seats set up in the hall, and at this time, two people were seated.

One was Deputy General Tang Ze of Falling Goose Pass, and the other was an Eighth Realm Cultivator sent from Yumen Pass to guard Falling Goose Pass, King Yueyue.

Both had an immensely dignified look, especially King Yueyue who sat in the main seat, from whom a strong aura was faintly emanating and hitting Lu Qingshan directly, involuntarily making him catch his breath.

Lu Qingshan understood that this aura emitted by King Yueyue was intended to intimidate him.

After all, he had seen other Eighth Realm Cultivators before.

Xia Daoyun was also an Eighth Realm Cultivator, but when had Xia Daoyun met him without making him feel refreshed? When had he ever emitted such an oppressing aura?

Lu Qingshan certainly did not think that King Yueyue was stronger than Xia Daoyun.

"You say you are an Underworld Cultivator? With body in the Netherworld but heart in Xia?" King Yueyue saw that Lu Qingshan seemed confident and unafraid, so he took the initiative to ask.

His tone was even somewhat playful.

"Certainly not, how could I be one of those despicable fellows of the Netherworld?" Lu Qingshan gave a slight bow to the two, and then answered without any servility nor haughtiness, "These words were actually meant for the Demon Race to hear, just to see if I could sow a seed of distrust towards the Underworld Cultivators amongst them, venerable seniors shouldn’t take them seriously."

"A crisis of trust…" King Yueyue repeated Lu Qingshan’s words, finding the idea somewhat novel.

Seeing how Lu Qingshan denied these accusations, he responded with a smile that was not quite a smile, "Then how did you appear on the Demon Race warship? If you are not an Underworld Cultivator, then why are you shrouded in Demonic Qi?"

"Are you referring to this, senior?" Lu Qingshan responded frankly, extending his hand.

Dark Demonic Qi immediately rolled out from his hand, but before the two could react, it transformed into an incredibly pure Spiritual Power, then changed back into Demonic Qi.

This continued in a ceaseless cycle, much like a magic trick.

King Yueyue saw this and his eyes lit up, examining Lu Qingshan carefully, "What’s going on here?"

Given that Lu Qingshan dared to show off in such a manner, the appearance of the Demonic Qi must have a rational explanation, so King Yueyue did not react brashly. He showed great composure, quietly waiting for Lu Qingshan’s explanation.

Lu Qingshan did not hesitate and soon began detailing how he encountered the cultivators of Falling Goose Pass, his encounter with the Demon Race army, and finally how he ended up on the Demon Race warship—a thorough narrative.

In so doing, he inevitably revealed the matter of the Yin Hui Core.

However, Lu Qingshan had no intention of hiding this, nor was there a need to.

After all, the Yin Hui Core was not a unique and precious treasure.

As for whether King Yueyue would covet his Yin Hui Core, it was highly unlikely.

Because the Yin Hui Core was extremely insignificant for the Human Race.

—You can use the Yin Hui Core to transform your Spiritual Power into Demonic Qi, but it won’t change the fact that you belong to the Human Race.

Are you planning to infiltrate the Abyss with your Human identity?

Aside from some very special circumstances, allowing him to impersonate an Underworld Cultivator like now, what significant use does the Yin Hui Core have at other times?

On hearing this, both King Yueyue and Tang Ze were slightly taken aback, then they exhibited a look of sudden realization.

"Some time ago, I did hear that the Tower of Vigilance discovered this item; I didn’t expect you to have one…" King Yueyue was surprisingly well-informed, uttering with a slight marvel, "How did an item from the Tower of Vigilance end up with you, could it be that you belong to the Tower of Vigilance?"

"That’s right." Lu Qingshan nodded, taking out a token that Dantai Qingrun had given to him from his Storage Ring and passing it over, to verify his identity.

After King Yueyue scanned the token with his Divine Sense, he slowly nodded, "This indeed is a token from the Tower of Vigilance, your statement is credible."

"But then, how did you break through that Blood Sea? That clearly is Divine Skill only an Eighth Realm Cultivator could stir," Tang Ze couldn’t help but ask at this point: "If I’m not mistaken, you are only in the Void Refining Realm, correct?"

The chasm between the Fifth Realm and the Eighth Realm was vast, like a natural moat. freewёbnoνel.com

Tang Ze had never heard of anyone who could cross this moat.

Thus, even after some time has passed, he was still preoccupied with Lu Qingshan’s Slash that had broken through the Blood Sea.

"That was just some special tactic of mine, very limited, the cost of deploying it is quite significant, and it lacks reproducibility." Unfortunately, Lu Qingshan did not provide an echo—he didn’t plan to divulge more about the Spell Breaking.

It wasn’t that he didn’t trust Tang Ze or King Yueyue, but once some things are spoken aloud, there’s a possibility of them being spread around, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

To keep a secret, one must keep quiet.

Spell Breaking was a very important ace up his sleeve.

Although he had been compelled to use it in public once, if he did not speak of it, others could never fully understand the true power of Spell Breaking.

Just like when he had used it in the Seven Domains Debate against Zhou Yuan, he performed Spell Breaking for all to see.
