I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 446
Chapter 446: Cultivation Progress, Tianji Tower Master Visits
Early in the morning at the Lu residence,
Lu Qing awoke from his training.
The spirit stone he held in his hand had dimmed, its spiritual energy drained.
However, he sensed the mana elixir within him and sighed.
After refining an entire low-grade spirit stone, his mana elixir’s power had only increased by a barely perceptible amount.
“I’m running out of spirit stones. At this rate, completing the first stage of the elixir will be a distant dream,”
Lu Qing pondered.
A year had passed since Mr. Zhao’s death.
During this time, Lu Qing had already deduced and perfected the first three stages of the [Perfect Golden Elixir Method].
Yet, his progress was slow. He
was still at the initial stage of the Golden Elixir Realm.
He had only completed a small portion of the first stage, and still had a long way to go before
he could fully complete it. And this was only after using spirit stones to cultivate.
Without spirit stones, relying solely on absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, his progress would have been excruciatingly slow.
The reason for this was that the current concentration of spiritual energy was no longer sufficient to sustain his cultivation.
Even the formations in the Jade Transformation Cavern could not gather spiritual energy at a rate comparable to his breathing and refining.
Consequently, for the last six months, Lu Qing had to cultivate using spirit stones to experience any noticeable improvement in his cultivation.
However, his supply of spirit stones was limited. After six months of cultivation, he had already used up most of his low-grade stones.
Lu Qing estimated that even if he used all of his remaining spirit stones for cultivation, it would only sustain him through the first stage of his cultivation and barely reach the second stage.
“If the first stage is so difficult, wouldn’t the spirit stone consumption for the second stage be doubled?”
Lu Qing’s scalp tingled at the mere thought.
While the Perfect Golden Elixir was powerful, the resources required to cultivate it were countless times greater than those of other Golden Elixir elixirs.
Lu Qing couldn’t even imagine the sheer amount of resources he would need once he reached the late Golden Elixir stage.
This perfect golden elixir is truly a gold-devouring beast!
“Furthermore, since the fifth chorus of the Heavenly Dao Sound, the increase in spiritual energy between heaven and earth has gradually stabilized.
The next Dao Sound will likely not sound for a long time.”
Lu Qing quietly sensed the surrounding laws of heaven and earth, sensing that they had become remarkably stable.
The next transformation would likely take a long time to develop.
He had anticipated this.
Yan had also told him that even in the last era of immortal cultivation, the spiritual energy revival took hundreds of years to develop before its concentration reached its peak. With
the current world’s revival only just beginning, it would likely take a long time before the next transformation.
“Guess I have to think of a way. I wonder if those places Yan mentioned actually have spiritual stone veins,”
Lu Qing pondered silently.
As a surviving antique from the previous era of immortal cultivation, Yan knew many secrets,
including the locations of some of the more famous spiritual stone veins of the previous era.
He just didn’t know if any spiritual stones had been produced in those places in such a short time since the world’s revival.
Just as Lu Qing was thinking about his future path of cultivation, his heart suddenly moved.
He took out a jade talisman from his arms and read it with his mind.
This jade talisman was a communication jade talisman he had refined, which could transmit information
with his mind. A message came out of the jade talisman.
“A Qing, come over after you come out of retreat.”
It was the message from the master.
“Master, do you have something to talk to me about?”
Lu Qing’s heart moved slightly.
Without thinking too much, he left the meditation room and soon came to the small courtyard halfway up the mountain.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw the master drinking tea with two people under the plum tree.
One of them was Lin Zhirui, but the other one was a little unexpected to him.
“Senior Tianji Tower Master?”
Lu Qing was very surprised to see the old man with an immortal look.
“Young Master Lu, long time no see.” Tianji Tower Master said with a smile.
“Senior, you’ve found the time to come to this remote place of ours. I never thought I’d see.”
“Young Master Lu, you’re too modest. This place is overflowing with spiritual energy, comparable to that of Zhongzhou. It’s obvious that it’s a land of exceptional talent.
No wonder it can produce such a prodigy as you,”
the Master of the Heavenly Secret Tower exclaimed in admiration.
“Senior, you’re too kind,” Lu Qing smiled, then asked, “But how did you find the time to come to Cangzhou?”
Lu Qing knew that someone like the Master of the Heavenly Secret Tower was so busy that he wouldn’t leave Zhongzhou unless necessary.
Furthermore, since his master had specifically summoned him, he must have something important to discuss.
As Lu Qing pondered, the Master of the Heavenly Secret Tower observed him.
He realized that, just as in Zhongzhou, despite his recent breakthroughs in cultivation, he was still completely unable to discern Lu Qing’s true intentions.
Aside from sensing that he was becoming even more unfathomable, he could see nothing else.
His Heavenly Secret divination technique was completely ineffective against Lu Qing.
Thinking of the message Zhirui had sent him earlier, the Tianji Tower Master understood.
Lu Qing’s cultivation had truly reached an extremely high level, a realm beyond their comprehension.
“To be honest, young master, I came here for something.”
Seeing Lu Qing asking, the master of Tianji Tower did not keep the secret and said directly.
“I was entrusted by someone to ask you a question.”
“Oh? I don’t know what it is. If I knew, I would tell you everything.” Lu Qing said.
Seeing Lu Qing say this, the master of Tianji Tower suddenly became serious and looked at Lu Qing seriously.
He said: “This matter is related to Xuankong Mountain, one of the four secret places.
A year ago, Xuankong Mountain was killed by a mysterious strong man wearing a ghost face mask, who killed many disciples and elders.
Xuankong Mountain was forced to hide in the secret place and stay indoors.
For more than a year, there has been no news of them in the world.
Originally, everyone thought that Xuankong Mountain was afraid of the strong man with a ghost face mask.
In addition, the two aliens were very powerful at that time, so they hid in the secret place and never came out.
But later, the two aliens were killed by you, young master, and disappeared for a long time.
Xizhou Yi There had been no signs of the Xuankong Mountain appearing.
Not long ago, other secret places couldn’t help but send people to Xizhou to inquire about the news.
However, they were very surprised to find that the Xuankong Mountain Secret Place could no longer be contacted.
Their request to visit was not responded to at all.
Finally, after multiple investigations, the other secret places came to the conclusion that
the Xuankong Mountain Secret Place had disappeared.
It was not the so-called closed-door seclusion, but that even the people and the entire secret space had completely disappeared.
“Young Master Lu, do you know what’s going on?”
Being stared at closely by the Lord of Tianji Tower, Lu Qing smiled calmly:
“From what you said, senior, do you think this matter is related to me?”
The Lord of Tianji Tower did not speak.
Some things do not need to be explained so clearly.
But how could an ancient secret place, passed down for tens of thousands of years, vanish without a trace?
Such a terrifying thing, no force in the entire world could possibly accomplish.
If he truly had to speculate, he couldn’t think of anyone else with such incredible powers besides Lu Qing.
After all, this person was the one who could easily slay those two incredibly powerful Jindan-level aliens.
More importantly, Lu Qing also had an irreconcilable grudge against Xuankong Mountain.
Despite all the speculation, although he couldn’t believe it,
the Tianji Tower Master believed that if the disappearance of the Xuankong Mountain secret place was man-made,
then no one else besides Lu Qing could have pulled off such an incredible feat.
Seeing the look in Tianji Tower Master’s eyes, Lu Qing smiled. “Since Senior Master already has the answer, why ask me again?”
Tianji Tower Master was shocked. “If that’s the case, it really is…”
“I don’t know anything else, I can only tell you, Senior.
That’s right, the secret area of Xuankong Mountain has completely vanished.
From now on, there are only three secret areas in the world.
Xuankong Mountain has become history.”
Tianji Tower Master and Lin Zhirui were stunned. Although
they had speculated before arriving, they were only speculations.
Xuankong Mountain wasn’t necessarily gone.
Perhaps some secret method had been used to seal off the secret area.
After all, as an ancient power inherited from the previous era of immortal cultivation, it wasn’t difficult to imagine that they possessed some powerful formations and methods.
So now, with Lu Qing’s confirmation that Xuankong Mountain had completely vanished and become history,
the master and disciple were still in shock.
The old doctor, on the other hand, remained calm.
Lu Qing had already told him of Xuankong Mountain’s demise a year ago.
“Young Master Lu, this, this is really…”
After a long moment, the Tianji Tower Master came back to his senses, but for a moment he didn’t know what to say.
“It’s just the destruction of a secret place, why should you mind it, Senior
? And, Senior, guess, what else did I see in the Xuankong Mountain secret place besides the Xuankong Mountain monks?”
The Tianji Tower Master was stunned, but his sharp mind suddenly thought of something.
“Could it be…”
“Yes, the remnants of the Wujian Tower, once besieged by all the forces in the world, are alive and well in the Xuankong Mountain secret place.
But don’t worry, Senior, they also disappeared into silence along with the secret place.”
“Is that so…”
The Tianji Tower Master muttered.
In fact, he had already guessed it when the remnants of the Wujian Tower reappeared.
It was only now that Lu Qing confirmed it.
“I understand the reason why you came this time. You can tell the person who asked you for a favor.
I have always been clear about gratitude and resentment, and I will not kill easily.
As long as I am not provoked, I do not like to make enemies.”
Lu Qing understood that the disappearance of Xuankong Mountain must have caused panic in the other three secret places.
After all, an ancient power that has been passed down for tens of thousands of years and has the secret realm as a backing disappeared just like that. If
this matter is not clarified, I am afraid that the people in the other three secret places will not be able to sleep peacefully.
So he also expressed his attitude to the Lord of Tianji Tower.
As long as you don’t provoke him, everything will be fine.
But if someone doesn’t know what’s good for you, he doesn’t mind letting the incident of Xuankong Mountain Secret Land happen again.
The Lord of Tianji Tower naturally understood the meaning of Lu Qing’s words.
He immediately said, “Don’t worry, Young Master Lu. I will definitely pass on your words to the other three secret places.”
“Okay, now that we’ve finished our business, let’s all sit down and have some tea.”
At this time, the old doctor spoke at the right time, dispelling the solemn atmosphere around them.
Coincidentally, the spring water boiling in front of him also began to boil.
The owner of Tianji Tower sat down.
The old doctor began to brew plum tea.
As the boiling spring water brewed, a strange fragrance soon wafted from the pot and quickly filled the entire courtyard.
When the owner of Tianji Tower smelled this fragrance, he immediately felt refreshed, and the spiritual energy in his body was even subtly stimulated.
He stared in amazement at the plum tea the old doctor poured out, unable to resist praising it, “Excellent tea!”
Lin Zhirui smiled and said, “Master, you must try it carefully. Senior Chen’s plum tea is unique in the world. It’s no exaggeration to say it’s the best tea in the world!”
“Zhirui, you’re too kind. It’s just that this flower tea from the plum tree is a bit unique. How can it deserve the title of the best tea in the world?” The old doctor shook his head. He handed
the first cup of tea to the Tianji Tower Master, “Master, please.” The Tianji Tower Master didn’t refuse. He took the cup of tea, which was clear and fragrant. He couldn’t help but take a sip. The tea made his mouth water. After taking a sip of plum tea, his spiritual energy involuntarily began to circulate, becoming much more active. The Tianji Tower Master couldn’t help but widen his eyes: “This plum tea…” ”Haha, Master, you feel the magic of this plum tea, right?” Lin Zhirui said happily, “This plum tea is no longer just an ordinary tea. It contains spiritual charm, can invigorate spiritual power, and increase cultivation.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a spiritual medicine, it is a real spiritual tea.
That is why the disciples say it is the best tea in the world. “
“The best tea in the world? This plum tea is indeed worthy of this name.”
The master of Tianji Tower felt the changes in his body and could not help
but admire. At the same time, he could not help but marvel in his heart.
This time, he was really shocked.
Although he had heard disciples mention the wonders of Jiuli Village before, he was still very surprised when he saw the village with his own eyes.
The spiritual energy gathered in this remote mountain village is not worse than that of Zhongzhou.
Even he could not see the clues of the formation guarding the village.
Now he has tasted the spiritual tea that can increase his cultivation.
No wonder Zhirui never wanted to go back to Zhongzhou since he came here.
This place is really an excellent place for cultivation.
Listening to the praise of the master of Tianji Tower Lu Qing did not speak, but also picked up the tea and took a sip.
Ever since he set up the formation and gathered the earth energy and spiritual energy from all directions to the village, the plum tree in the courtyard halfway up the mountain has become more and more magical.
Now it has a strong spirituality and can be called a real spiritual tree.
The plum blossoms that grow are also of great benefit to low-level cultivators such as the owner of Tianji Tower and Lin Zhirui.
Of course, for him, it is just a simple tea that tastes better.
With his current cultivation level, in addition to spiritual stones, only real spiritual medicines, and the grade cannot be too low, will be useful.
Thinking of his own cultivation progress, Lu Qing couldn’t help but feel a headache again.
