I Can See Through All Things' Information Chapter 1279 - 779: Seizing the Life Core, Unraveling Minor Causality (2)

Right then, he caught sight of it, just as his Heaven-shocking Stab was on the verge of striking the Wind Beast’s Life Core in a flash.

With a resounding boom, the Wind Beast’s entire form abruptly broke apart, blending into the boundless wind and sand, Life Core included.

All the mana he’d poured into forming the Heaven-shocking Stab went astray, launching upward into the heavens.

“Go!”

Even more astonishing to the young man in white was the sharp yell that rang out nearby, as multiple silhouettes burst from the light shield, racing away in retreat.

These were his junior brothers and sisters, convinced he’d destroyed the Wind Beast. Following his orders, they wasted no time and bolted desperately.

A chill of dread surged through the young man in white’s chest. He whipped around and bellowed: “No!”

Yet it was already too late. The Wind Beast that had scattered moments ago reformed in merely a single breath.

And swinging its enormous, mountain-like hand, it slammed down toward those fleeing figures who hadn’t gotten far.

“This is bad, how could the Wind Beast regroup so fast?”

“It intentionally dispersed its body and dodged Senior Brother’s strike!”

“That flaw it showed before was a trap—does the Wind Beast really have that kind of cunning?”

“We’re doomed, without the Mystic Light Shield, there’s no way to withstand this attack!”

“It’s finished!”

The escaping group sensed the overwhelming force of the Wind Beast’s assault, their shock immeasurable.

They had never dreamed that this Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast’s intellect could be so advanced.

All that earlier disarray was a ruse to draw Senior Brother into launching his strike.

Now, bereft of the Heaven-shocking Stab and outside the Mystic Light Shield’s protection,

Against this sly Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast, master of vast winds and sands, they resembled helpless sheep awaiting the butcher, escape impossible.

As the massive, sand-laden hand drew nearer, utter hopelessness flooded everyone’s hearts.

Right at the point where they believed crushing death was inevitable,

a steady voice rang out unexpectedly.

“Stop.”

At that single command, the whole world fell silent.

Be it the colossal Wind Beast, the raging wind and sand, or the darting figures,

all motion halted entirely, locked in stasis.

“What’s going on?”

The young man in white jerked his head around, staring in disbelief at the sight unfolding.

In his vision now, everything in the world had frozen.

The towering Wind Beast hung motionless in the air, its extended sand hand paused right over his junior brothers and sisters’ heads.

His juniors stood equally immobilized, their faces etched with terror.

He too found himself pinned in place, every limb refusing to budge.

As bewilderment gripped the young man in white, his eyes abruptly narrowed once more.

For there, several forms materialized abruptly in front of the immense Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast.

More precisely, a blue-robed youth and a breathtakingly lovely girl, accompanied by a few diminutive Mutant Beasts.

Next, he watched as the youth grinned toward the Wind Beast.

“Old friend, long time no see, have you missed me?”

Lu Qing offered a smile while addressing the visibly frightened Wind Beast ahead.

At the same time, a touch of astonishment stirred within him.

To his surprise, after so many years, the formerly awkward Wind Beast had advanced tremendously.

Not just breaking into the Primordial Spirit Realm, but its smarts had sharpened too, even learning to plot.

That earlier feigned vulnerability had tricked the young man in white’s fatal blow into missing—impressive, even to him.

The restrained Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast, spotting Lu Qing, quivered violently, rage blazing in its gaze.

How could it fail to identify this as the human who’d once played it for a fool?

Though his looks had shifted a little, that Divine Soul presence was etched indelibly.

This very youth had deceived it and slain numerous underlings.

This spurred the Wind Beast into intense self-examination, pushing it to train rigorously until it grasped Primordial Spirit Realm might.

It had also spied on human travelers across the Gale Plain, picking up sly tactics from them.

All to one day cross paths with this youth again, evade his deceptions, and pulverize him utterly!

Facing its foe so directly now, fury consumed the Wind Beast.

Sand across its frame began to quake, straining against the bonds to pulverize the human youth.

“You’re still as hopeless as always.”

Witnessing the Wind Beast’s furious state, Lu Qing shook his head.

Just earlier, he’d figured this Wind Beast had grown clever, adept at scheming against foes.

But it appeared no real change had taken root.

Blind to the true circumstances, still woefully short on wits at its core.

“Looks like you’re not up for reminiscing. Alright, I’ll send you on your way then.”

With a subtle shift in thought, Lu Qing released the binding pressure on the Wind Beast.

The Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast sensed the unseen force holding it fade away, elation surging instantly.

In the following instant, it let out a roar and lunged as if to overwhelm Lu Qing.

Just when Lu Qing anticipated a frenzied assault from the Wind Beast, its huge body dissolved abruptly, bursting into a storm of airborne sand.

And its Life Core rapidly fused with the infinite wind and sand, vanishing completely.

Seizing the chance to flee outright.

Lu Qing paused in mild surprise, then chuckled: “You’ve learned a thing or two, pulling off a feint like that, but do you really believe it’ll let you slip my hold?”

Extending his hand softly, Lu Qing reached into the empty space beneath.

Then, an incredulous yelp echoed through the air.

Amid the ceaseless wind and sand, subtle strands of pale yellow glow swiftly converged in Lu Qing’s grasp.

Quickly, they coalesced into a yellow light speck, dropping into his hand.

At the heart of that yellow light speck, muffled roars emanated invisibly—none other than the Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast’s cries.

“He pulled back a Wind Beast Life Core that had already blended into the wind and sand by force?”

At this display, the young man in white and the rest nearly bulged their eyes in astonishment.

For an instant, they overlooked the lifting of the suppressive hold on themselves.

In truth, Lu Qing’s method was utterly staggering.

Aware that the Gale Plain was an extraordinary domain, tied to the enigmatic Wind Cavern that endlessly spawned formidable Wind Beasts.

Wind Beasts thrived in this wind-law domain, their capacity to assemble and scatter granting them exceptional toughness.

Even a typical Wind Beast, after merging its Life Core with wind and sand, proved hard to vanquish, even for Primordial Spirit Realm experts.

Yet what they witnessed: a Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast, Life Core fused into the sands,

Still yanked out forcibly by a human cultivator from the swirling chaos!

Gazing at the yellow light speck in Lu Qing’s palm, the young man in white and companions grappled to grasp the feat.

Not even their esteemed master, a mighty Four Tribulations Primordial Spirit, wielded such miraculous prowess.

What manner of being was this enigmatic youth among them!

“I warned you, escape from me is impossible.”

Eyeing the Wind Beast Life Core in his grip, radiating desperate pleas of will, Lu Qing offered no pity.

With a light clench of his hand, beneath the crush of infinite might, the yellow light speck yielded without fight, shattering and fading instantly.

With this tie severed, Lu Qing declared: “Little Yan, let’s head out.”

“Senior, hold on a second...”

As Lu Qing prepared to depart, the now-freed young man in white called out urgently.

But before his words ended, Lu Qing and his group’s forms blinked away, gone without a whisper.

“That’s Space Shifting!”

The young man in white trembled once more.

To execute Space Shifting required, at minimum, the stature of a Primordial Spirit Five Tribulations Great Power.

This senior outstripped his master’s level by leaps and bounds!

Strangely, though, that senior’s face seemed oddly recognizable.

The young man in white pondered fiercely, a sudden spark of insight hitting him, eyes flaring wide.
