I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 465
Chapter 465: Two Great Inheritances, the Location of the Spiritual Pearl, and the Final Reach of the Holy Mountain
Sword energy and claw marks fell to the ground, one severing a giant in half.
The other left a massive claw mark across the vast land.
Lu Qing could naturally tell that it was the origin of the Qinglong City claw mark and the Yixiantian sword mark.
After the sword energy and claw marks fell, he saw the exotic beast Suanni across from him staring at his front paw.
A shallow sword mark appeared on it, and a stream of golden blood oozed from it.
It fell downwards, eventually landing in a vast, flowing river.
“Excellent! As expected of a Six Tribulations Power, your reputation for Sky-Splitting Sword Energy is well-deserved. Fellow Daoist ‘Sky-Splitting’, this move has cost me.”
The exotic beast Suanni stared at the scar on its paw and waved it. With a thought, it forced out a stream of sword energy, and the wound healed completely.
“Your Highness Suanni’s physique is remarkable. My sword energy can only scratch your skin at best. It’s truly
nothing to be proud of.” The Taoist “Potian” shook his head, seemingly unimpressed.
“Being able to injure me is already remarkable,” the strange beast Suanni said calmly. “I have a Daoist weapon bestowed upon me by my father to protect me. Even when unactivated, it still possesses considerable defensive power.
Yet you were able to pierce its defenses and injure my flesh.
Among those at the sixth level of the Yuanshen, you are truly at the top.”
“Your Highness Suanni, you are so kind,”
the Taoist “Potian” said modestly.
Splash!
As the man and the beast conversed, a sudden movement echoed from the vast river below them.
A gigantic whale leaped from the river and plunged back down, sending a shower of water everywhere.
Immediately afterwards, several ferocious-looking fish followed closely behind, pouncing on the whale.
Then, numerous powerful underwater creatures burst forth to join the fray.
They all seemed to be fighting over something.
The Taoist priest “Potian” was momentarily stunned, then suddenly grasped something.
“Your Highness Suanni, it seems these indigenous creatures are not foolish and barbaric. They all know the preciousness of your blood.”
The blood of the Five Tribulations Beast Suanni, son of the Ancestral Dragon, was truly noble.
Even a trace of it would be enough to drive the indigenous creatures of this small world into a frenzy.
“They’re just fools, but this is their opportunity,”
the beast
said, unconcerned. That trace of blood was nothing to it, and it disdained to trouble such imbeciles who hadn’t even awakened their intelligence.
Upon hearing this, the Taoist priest “Potian” nodded silently.
Rumor has it that most of the nine sons of the Ancestral Dragon possess brutal temperaments, but Your Highness Suanni, a rare example of gentleness, possessed a rare and gentle disposition.
Meeting him today, he saw it as indeed it was.
“Fellow Daoist ‘Potian’, this small world is too fragile. The slightest effort will cause its space to shatter. It’s not a suitable place for a fight.
Why don’t we change locations and have a proper sparring match?”
At this moment, the strange beast Suanni suddenly suggested.
“Alright, I’m itching to fight too. Let’s change places and have a serious sparring match.”
The Taoist “Potian” nodded immediately.
The next moment, the figures of man and beast vanished from the spot.
Lu Qing’s mind and consciousness also vanished with a bang.
When he came to his senses, he found himself back in his physical body.
At the same time, a profound technique emerged in his mind.
However, Lu Qing had no time to process this.
His mind was still immersed in the shock of the moment.
He hadn’t expected this simulated inheritance to be so special.
Instead of receiving various insights as usual, he was able to directly possess the Taoist “Potian” and experience the detailed process of his sword strike.
In other words, possessing the “Heaven-Breaking” Taoist just now was almost like personally delivering that awe-inspiring sword strike, experiencing the unparalleled power of a Sixth Tribulation Soul Master.
The awe-inspiring feeling was truly unparalleled.
After a long moment, Lu Qing’s emotions calmed down a bit, and he focused on the inheritance he had just obtained.
Then, after reading it, he was stunned again.
It was a peerless inheritance called “Heaven-Breaking Sword Qi.”
Even the initial stage of cultivation required the initial stage of the Soul Realm,
meaning that he was completely unqualified to cultivate this peerless inheritance.
“As expected of an inheritance from a Sixth Tribulation Soul Master, the threshold for cultivation alone is so high.”
After a moment, Lu Qing regained his composure, sighed, and turned his attention to the Suanni Claw Seal inheritance.
He chose to study it, and the next moment, his mind drifted away again.
Upon regaining consciousness, he saw an ordinary-looking Taoist, sword in hand, standing out of thin air across from him.
As expected, he possessed the strange beast Suanni.
However, unlike possessing the “Potian” Taoist
, his first feeling after possessing the strange beast Suanni was
power!
Boundless and tyrannical power!
The strange beast Suanni’s body was so powerful that it was indescribable.
It felt like even the slightest movement would completely shatter this small world, causing spatial vibrations and shattering, leading to boundless disaster.
No wonder it had previously stated in the Potian Sword Scar inheritance that this small world could not be opened.
For them, sparring in this world was no different from fighting within a delicate porcelain vase.
A bit more serious could have shattered space, shattered the small world, and unleashed a catastrophe thousands of miles in radius.
There’s not much to say about what happened next.
Lu Qing relived the previous events,
but this time from the perspective of the exotic beast Suanni, experiencing the process of it initiating that claw seal.
After the exotic beast Suanni and the Taoist “Potian” departed, Lu Qing’s mind and will returned to his body.
Simultaneously, a new technique, the Nine Seals of the Divine Dragon, appeared in his mind.
Clearly, it was the seal technique used by the exotic beast Suanni.
However, as Lu Qing had expected, this technique also required the Soul Realm to initiate cultivation.
Furthermore, the Nine Seals of the Divine Dragon was incomplete, containing only the techniques for the first five seals.
This was presumably related to the exotic beast Suanni’s current state.
After all, when it performed that seal, it was already at the Five Tribulations of the Soul Realm.
Most importantly, this inheritance of the [Nine Seals of the Divine Dragon] has a very demanding cultivation requirement.
It requires a being with the bloodline of the “Ancestral Dragon” to practice.
Otherwise, if one forcibly cultivates without meeting this requirement,
they will either be denied access and unable to achieve any success, or be unable to withstand the backlash of the [Nine Seals of the Divine Dragon], annihilating both body and soul.
“The cultivation requirements of the [Nine Seals of the Divine Dragon] are truly demanding,”
Lu Qing exclaimed after learning about the technique.
As expected of a technique cultivated by exotic beasts, it has many restrictions. Not
only does it require the Soul Realm to begin with, but it also requires the bloodline of the “Ancestral Dragon.”
He had originally thought that even if he couldn’t practice it himself, he could pass it on to Xiaoyan and Wuxing later.
Now, it seems that this plan is doomed to fail.
Even if he couldn’t cultivate, the meaning revealed in the inherited illusion when the strange beast Suanni swung its claws was still of great value.
Lu Qing estimated that even if he only comprehended the meaning of that claw, he could probably create a very good technique.
You have to know that this was the implication of a Five Tribulations beast.
If he hadn’t witnessed it directly through his supernatural powers, even he wouldn’t have been able to withstand the terrifying mental shock.
“Never mind. After all, it’s a free inheritance, so I can’t be too greedy. The [Heaven-Breaking Sword Qi] alone is a supreme inheritance that countless Yuan Shen realm masters dream of.”
Lu Qing felt a pity for a moment, but then quickly let it go.
After all, from the message revealed by his supernatural powers, he knew that the “Ancestral Dragon” was a Nine Tribulations beast.
The bloodline of such a being was extremely precious; how could he possibly obtain it?
“No…”
Suddenly, Lu Qing was startled, and a scene flashed back to him.
In the previous inheritance illusion, the beast Suanni was injured by the sword energy of the Taoist “Potian”. A stream of golden blood then oozed out and fell into the river, where it was fought over by many strange fish and beasts.
And when he first caught the dragon beard fish in the stream outside the village, it also showed that it contained a trace of dragon blood.
The combination of these two things suddenly gave Lu Qing a lot of thoughts.
He even recalled Suanni’s comment, when he saw the many exotic beasts in the river fighting for its blood, that it was a chance for those fools.
“That exotic beast, Suanni, is one of the nine sons of the Ancestral Dragon. Its bloodline, apart from that of the Ancestral Dragon itself, is probably purer.
I wonder who won Suanni’s bloodline back then.
Now, a hundred thousand years have passed, has that bloodline been passed down?”
Lu Qing pondered for a moment, then shook his head.
After all, that happened a hundred thousand years ago, and there’s no way to verify it.
And after so long, who knows if the bloodline has been diluted beyond recognition?
Still, Lu Qing kept the thought in mind.
After pondering for a while, feeling that he hadn’t missed anything, he opened his eyes.
Then he saw Lin Zhirui standing in the distance, looking at him with a look of surprise and doubt.
“Zhirui, what are you doing…”
Lu Qing was puzzled.
“Young Master, during your contemplation just now, a terrifying aura of spiritual power emanated from you. This young man couldn’t withstand it and had to retreat.”
The voice of “Yan” echoed in Lu Qing’s mind.
Upon hearing this, Lu Qing’s face immediately apologetically stated, “Sorry, Zhirui, I was so engrossed in my contemplation just now that I couldn’t control my aura.”
“It’s alright, Young Master Lu, are you done contemplating?”
Lin Zhirui smiled, unfazed.
He knew Lu Qing hadn’t done it on purpose.
Ultimately, the gap in their cultivation level was too great, so even the slightest aura was too much for him to withstand.
“Well, our contemplation is over for now. We can continue our journey.”
Lu Qing summoned the golden boat.
Soon, carrying Lin Zhirui, they soared into the air again, heading towards the Holy Mountain.
After crossing the Qinglong Mountains and officially entering Zhongzhou, Lu Qing felt a surge of energy.
The spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth was incredibly rich, far more powerful than that of the other states.
Even Jiuli Village, where he had re-established the formation, pales in comparison.
Only the spiritual vein beneath the Changhen Mountains boasted a higher concentration of spiritual energy.
“As expected of this world’s center, the spiritual energy in this state has reached such a high level,” Lu Qing couldn’t help but exclaim in praise.
Lin Zhirui was equally astonished.
He hadn’t been back to Zhongzhou in a long time. He
hadn’t expected the spiritual energy here to have revived to such a degree.
After sighing in admiration, Lu Qing’s heart stirred again.
Upon entering Zhongzhou, he felt the Earth Spirit Pearl and the Fire Spirit Pearl in his brow acupoint vibrate simultaneously.
The three spiritual pearl acupoints, which had been vaguely present until then, suddenly intensified.
“It’s the spiritual pearl in Zhongzhou. I can sense its location… in the direction of the Holy Mountain!”
Lu Qing felt a brief sense of surprise, then a smile spread across his face. What a coincidence!
It was right on his way, saving him the trouble of taking a detour.
Immediately, Lu Qing mobilized his magical power, accelerating the golden boat even further, soaring at breakneck speed towards the Holy Mountain.
Then, as the vast mountain ranges and vast territories below were traversed, Lu Qing’s expression grew increasingly baffling.
When the outline of the Holy Mountain came into view, he finally understood.
The spiritual pearl’s induction was coming from the Holy Mountain’s direction; it was definitely within it!
He wondered if it was hidden somewhere within the mountain, or if it was controlled by a Holy Lord.
Lu Qing’s thoughts raced, and after several breaths, the golden boat transformed into a stream of light, arriving above the Holy Mountain. It stopped, hovering high in the sky.
Atop the Holy Mountain, the three Holy Lords cultivating suddenly sensed the presence of an incredibly powerful aura.
Startled, they all awoke from their meditations, looking upward in horror.
Only when they saw Lu Qing and Lin Zhirui on the golden boat did they breathe a sigh of relief.
They knew it was guests, not enemies.
However, the shock in their hearts still had not completely dissipated.
Although they had long anticipated Lu Qing’s strength,
when they actually faced Lu Qing, they still couldn’t help but be shocked.
The aura that Lu Qing had just exuded was truly too terrifying.
It was far more terrifying than when they had faced the two alien strangers.
“What a delight to have such distinguished guests from afar! Fellow Daoist Lu’s presence truly brightens the Holy Mountain,”
the First Saint Lord said loudly, calming himself down. Simultaneously, he,
along with the Second and Third Saint Lords, used their acrobatic skills to reach the summit of the Holy Mountain.
Lu Qing, piloting a golden boat, slowly descended from the sky.
He and Lin Zhirui disembarked from the boat and collected it.
The three Saint Lords’ expressions shifted slightly upon seeing this.
They knew something about this golden boat.
Flying instruments were rare, and golden ones were even rarer.
As far as they knew, only one of the Grand Elders of Xuankong Mountain possessed one.
Now it was in Lu Qing’s hands, so its origins were obvious.
However, the three Saint Lords remained silent, smiling at Lu Qing and the others.
“Greetings, three Saint Lords,”
Lin Zhirui said upon descending, bowing respectfully to the three Saint Lords.
“No need for formalities,”
the First Saint Lord nodded.
Lu Qing then bowed, saying, “Young Daoist Fellow Lu, I’ve long heard of your renown. Today, I’m fortunate to meet you in person. You are truly a heroic young man, a peerless genius—utterly admirable.”
“Saint Lord, you are so kind.”
Lu Qing returned the greeting.
Although he had clashed with the Third Saint Lord, it didn’t stop him from admiring what all three Saint Lords had done.
After all, the ban on the Xiantian Realm alone had benefited countless ordinary people.
