I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 453

Chapter 453: Treasures Full of the Warehouse, Fire Spirit Pearl, and the Inheritance of the Yuanshen Realm

“Your Majesty, this is the treasury of our Hanshui Palace. You may choose whatever you like and see if anything catches your eye.”

After the banquet, Han Lingshuang wasted no time and led Lu Qing directly to the Hanshui Palace treasury.

It was then that Lu Qing learned that the Hanshui Palace’s treasury was located within their secret realm.

This was understandable, after all, the secret realm was heavily guarded, protected by formations. Even a Jindan-level cultivator would find it difficult to force their way in.

The treasury was the safest place within the secret realm.

Lu Qing was naturally unfazed by Han Lingshuang’s invitation.

Perhaps it was a sign of Hanshui Palace’s sincerity.

After all, he might have the potential to completely annihilate Xuankong Mountain.

By inviting him into the secret realm, Hanshui Palace was exposing its greatest weakness to Lu Qing.

It was a tremendous risk.

“As expected of an ancient power with a history of tens of thousands of years, this collection is truly rich.”

Standing within the vast treasury, sensing the subtle spiritual aura, Lu Qing sighed.

This treasury contained at least hundreds of treasures imbued with spiritual auras.

Of course, most of these treasures lacked a strong aura, and with Lu Qing’s current vision, he naturally looked down upon them.

For example, if he had sufficient materials, he could refine magical instruments and treasures himself, and they would be far superior to most of the items here.

So, while the Hanshui Palace’s treasury was rich

, truly high-level treasures were few and far between.

This wasn’t surprising, however.

After all, Lu Qing had learned from Yan that at the end of the ancient era of immortal cultivation,

the powerful cultivators plundered the entire world in their quest for survival.

It’s likely that they had plundered the vast majority of high-level treasures and spiritual objects,

leaving few remaining in this world.

This was also the reason why the monks in Xuankong Mountain didn’t possess any particularly powerful magical weapons when Lu Qing destroyed them.

It was also the reason why Hanshui Palace was forced to this point by Li Changbo, who had recently reached the Jindan realm and whose foundation was weak.

The so-called Four Secret Sites are actually a small legacy left behind by some of the most powerful immortal sects from the ancient era of immortal cultivation.

Before departing, these elite sects took away nearly all of their most valuable treasures.

Furthermore, the tens of thousands of years preceding this era were a period of depleted spiritual energy.

For Hanshui Palace to have amassed so many treasures imbued with spiritual energy is truly remarkable.

Faced with the overflowing treasure trove, Lu Qing didn’t examine each one closely. Instead, he focused his mind, sensing the aura of the items throughout the vault.

“Hmm?”

Suddenly, his expression shifted, a hint of surprise crossing his face. He

then glanced in one direction of the vault.

Just then, he sensed a fluctuation in the Earth Spirit Pearl within his brow acupoint.

The source of the fluctuation lay in that direction.

“Your Excellency?”

Han Lingshuang, standing nearby, noticed this and asked.

“I’ve found something interesting. Palace Master, do you mind if I go take a look?” Lu Qing said with a smile.

“Of course, if anyone finds something that the Supreme One would appreciate, we would be honored.”

Lu Qing immediately headed in that direction, ignoring the many treasures along the way until he reached a treasure shelf further in.

He looked at the treasure placed in one of the shelves.

It was a fist-sized, dark red orb.

Upon seeing it, Lu Qing’s heart suddenly lit up.

“So that’s it.”

He activated his supernatural power and gazed at the orb.

Soon, a faint purple supernatural light emerged from the orb, and several messages floated out.

[Fire Spirit Orb: A magical orb born from the essence of the fire element, possessing many miraculous and extraordinary abilities.] [

Rumor has it that the Fire Spirit Orb can only be born in the deepest parts of the earth, where the power of Mars is most abundant.]

[It contains the power of the laws of the fire element, making it the finest natural spiritual weapon embryo.]

[The orb is covered in dust, still in its inward state. ” As expected

,

“

Lu Qing thought to himself after reading the message floating from the orb.

This orb was one of the Five Elements Spirit Orbs, the Fire Spirit Orb.

No wonder it triggered a reaction from the Earth Spirit Orb in his brow acupoint. Perhaps they were both Five Elements treasures, and they had some kind of strange connection.

“Palace Master, I want this orb.”

Confirming it was indeed the Fire Spirit Orb, Lu Qing spoke without hesitation.

“Your Majesty, are you sure?”

Han Lingshuang was surprised, having not expected Lu Qing to choose such a humble orb.

“Palace Master, do you know what this is?”

Lu Qing asked, observing her reaction.

Han Lingshuang’s heart stirred, and she said, “Please enlighten me, Your Majesty.”

She had originally thought it was just an ordinary treasure, but now it seemed there was something more to it.

“This is called the Fire Spirit Orb, a supreme treasure of the Fire Element. If it is in peak condition and combined with other treasures, there is hope that it can be refined into a Fire Elemental Spiritual Artifact.”

Lu Qing calmly explained the Fire Spirit Orb’s origins.

At the same time, he was also observing Han Lingshuang’s reaction to see if she would regret it.

“Is this the legendary Fire Spirit Pearl?”

Han Lingshuang was surprised, looking at the dark red pearl in disbelief.

It was hard to tell from this inconspicuous pearl that it was the Fire Spirit Pearl recorded in the ancient books handed down in the sect.

“It seems that the Palace Master really does not know the true origin of this treasure. If the Palace Master is reluctant, I can exchange it for other treasures.”

Han Lingshuang came back to his senses and smiled when he heard the words: “Your Majesty has underestimated Lingshuang. Since I said that the treasures in the treasury are for Your Majesty to choose, this naturally includes this Fire Spirit Pearl.

Moreover, this Fire Spirit Pearl was brought back by an ancestor of my Hanshui Palace thousands of years ago when he was training outside. It

has been kept in the treasury ever since, and no one knows its true origin.

If it were not for Your Majesty’s instructions , At this point, we didn’t know it was the legendary Fire Spirit Pearl.

I’m afraid it will have been piled up in the treasury for a long time, and the treasure will be covered in dust.

So it is its fate that the Supreme Lord has taken a fancy to it.

And if the Supreme Lord has other treasures that he likes, just take them away.

Even if the Supreme Lord wants to take all the treasures in this treasury, Lingshuang will never break his promise.

Your great kindness to my Hanshui Palace cannot be repaid with just treasures.”

Han Lingshuang’s tone was very sincere, and there was no sign of reluctance.

Lu Qing couldn’t help but praise him in his heart.

As expected of a person who can be in charge of a secret place, his mind is really magnanimous.

In comparison, the monks of Xuankong Mountain are much inferior.

“Palace Master, you are too polite. I only want this Fire Spirit Pearl.” Lu Qing said with a smile.

Han Lingshuang frowned: “Your Majesty thinks that Lingshuang is pretending to be generous by retreating in order to advance. Your Majesty, there is no need to be like this. What Lingshuang said is all from the heart.

If Your Majesty really has other treasures you like, please take them away as well.”

“Of course I know the Palace Master’s sincerity, but except for this Fire Spirit Pearl, the other treasures here are not of much use to me, so your sect doesn’t have to give them up.”

Han Lingshuang paused when he heard this.

Thinking of Lu Qing’s unfathomable strength, she knew he was telling the truth.

While the treasury contained numerous treasures, how much use could they have against a being as powerful as Lu Qing, who could easily slay even a Jindan Realm True Person?

Even she herself couldn’t believe it. Realizing

this, she relaxed her brows and said with some regret, “Perhaps my Hanshui Palace’s foundation is too shallow. The treasures we have collected are not worthy of the Supreme Lord’s attention.”

Seeing that she seemed genuinely regretful, Lu Qing thought for a moment and said,

“Palace Master, you are too polite. However, besides this Fire Spirit Pearl, I have another favor to ask.”

Han Lingshuang perked up, “Your Excellency, why should you ask? I don’t know what it is. As long as our Hanshui Palace can do its best, we will do our utmost.”

“I would like to borrow your sect’s inherited martial arts technique to see for myself. Is that possible?”

“Your Excellency wants our Hanshui Palace’s inherited martial arts technique?” Han Lingshuang was stunned.

“Indeed, I believe the Palace Master can see that my sister has a unique physique and is quite close to the Way of Ice.

I would like to borrow your sect’s inherited skills to see if I can gain inspiration and create a technique suitable for my sister.

Of course, I will not take your sect’s skills for free; I will pay a certain price in exchange.”

Han Lingshuang looked at Xiaoyan beside her.

Indeed, she could sense a unique aura from Xiaoyan.

It was quite similar to the aura cultivated by their Hanshui Palace.

This was one of the reasons why they felt a sense of kinship when they met.

She originally thought that it was because Xiaoyan practiced a similar technique to their Hanshui Palace.

Now it seems that Xiaoyan actually possesses some kind of unique physique.

She thought for a moment and said, “It is an honor for the High Lord to have favored our Hanshui Palace’s techniques.

However, the original Hanshui Palace techniques are not here, but in the Technique Hall.

After we leave, I will go and fetch them for the High Lord.

As for the exchange, there is no need to mention it. You have saved the Hanshui Palace, so how could we accept your things?”

Lu Qing smiled and stopped arguing with Han Lingshuang.

He had realized that she was being overly enthusiastic. No matter what reward he offered, she probably wouldn’t accept it.

He stepped forward and took the Fire Spirit Orb from the treasure shelf.

Unlike the Earth Spirit Orb, the Fire Spirit Orb felt light and not heavy.

Holding it in his hand, a warm feeling emanated from within.

Lu Qing used his spiritual power to probe into it and examined it.

He found that the fire energy contained within was almost nonexistent.

No wonder the Hanshui Palace treated it as an ordinary orb.

Moreover, the secret realm of the Hanshui Palace was dominated by the icy power, a branch of water power.

Even if spiritual energy revived, it couldn’t draw upon the power of the Fire Element.

Had Lu Qing not discovered it, it would likely have remained dormant deep within the Hanshui Palace’s treasure house, unable to revive.

Even now, after refining it, Lu Qing would need to find a place rich in Fire Elemental energy and nurture it for a period of time before it could regain its power. After

examining it for a few moments, Lu Qing put the Fire Spirit Orb away.

However, a strange feeling suddenly arose within him.

He had already collected two of the Five Elements Spirit Orbs, and he wondered if he would ever have the chance to collect all of them.

However, the thought only flashed through his mind.

The conditions for the creation of the Five Elements Spirit Orbs were inherently demanding.

Furthermore, the world was so vast, how could one possibly find one?

Even if one had truly existed, it might have long since fallen into the hands of others.

It was even possible that it had been taken away by some powerful being in the last era of immortal cultivation.

So, Lu Qing thought about it briefly and let the thought go.

After leaving the treasury, Han Lingshuang asked Lu Qing to wait while she went to retrieve the sect’s inheritance.

Not long after, Han Lingshuang returned, holding a jade scroll.

“Your Excellency, this [Hanbing Zhenlu] is the most profound inheritance of our Hanshui Palace.

The vast majority of our Hanshui Palace techniques are derived from this scroll.”

Han Lingshuang handed the scroll to Lu Qing.

Lu Qing raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.

Han Lingshuang’s generosity once again surprised him.

She had actually taken out the sect’s most core inheritance.

He took the scroll and opened it.

While seemingly flipping through it, he was secretly unlocking his supernatural powers.

[Inheritance Jade Book: The Jade Book that records the most core inheritance of Hanshui Palace.]

[This jade scroll is crafted from precious jade.]

[Inheritance discovered, do you want to simulate downloading?]

…

Seeing the prompt in the message, Lu Qing immediately chose to download.

[Downloading in progress, current progress: 1%, 2%, 3%… 98%, 99%, 100%]

[Download complete, do you want to simulate?]

Lu Qing once again selected “yes.

” Not long after, the ability prompted him again, indicating that the simulation was complete and asking if he wanted to begin learning immediately.

As Lu Qing selected “yes,” a flood of insights emerged from his mind.

He closed his eyes, quietly taking in the information.

This scene, in the eyes of Han Lingshuang who was standing aside, was a completely different picture.

She only saw Lu Qing slowly finish reading the jade book, then close it, close his eyes, and seem to be comprehending something.

She didn’t dare to disturb him, so she could only stand quietly by and wait.

As for Xiaoyan, it was even worse.

She had long been accustomed to her brother’s behavior, and was also waiting obediently for her brother to wake up.

After about a quarter of an hour, Lu Qing absorbed the information in his mind and woke up from his comprehension.

With a sigh in his eyes: “It is worthy of being a heritage passed down by the ancient immortal sect. This volume [Hanbing Zhenlu] has a very profound explanation of the way of Hanbing, which has benefited me a lot.”

After sighing, he handed the jade book in his hand to Han Lingshuang: “Thank you, Palace Master.”

Han Lingshuang took the jade book in a daze: “Your Excellency, you don’t need this jade book of inheritance anymore?”

“No need. I’ve already basically comprehended the inheritance within this jade scroll, and I’ve even begun to make some progress in developing Xiaoyan’s cultivation technique.”

Lu Qing was extremely satisfied.

This scroll from the Hanshui Palace was a profound inheritance that could reach the Soul Formation Realm.

After comprehending it, he gained a great deal, even gaining some direction for the subsequent stages of his own [Perfect Golden Core Method].

You see, while the Lihuo Sect’s inheritance also contained Soul Formation cultivation techniques, they were all oriented towards the Fire Element.

This [Hanbing Zhenlu], a branch of the Water Element,

offered a valuable insight, providing him with a wealth of inspiration for the subsequent development of his [Perfect Golden Core Method].

Lu Qing couldn’t help but sigh, “Bringing Xiaoyan along on this trip was a truly wise decision.

Not only had he gained a great deal of knowledge, but he had also now obtained the Fire Spirit Pearl and a Soul Formation inheritance. It

was truly a tremendous gain.”

Han Lingshuang was stunned upon hearing Lu Qing’s words.
