I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 516

Chapter 516: The Vast World, the Starry Sky City

“Master.”

As Lu Qing’s mind entered the Lihuo Cauldron, Yan immediately came forward to greet him.

Ever since Lu Qing entered the Jindan realm, Yan’s attitude toward Lu Qing had gradually changed.

Later, he even addressed Lu Qing directly as “Master.”

Lu Qing was a little uncomfortable at first, but seeing Yan’s persistence, he relented.

“What about the demon cultivator?” Lu Qing asked.

“He’s in deep sleep. For years, that demon cub, deprived of demonic energy, has spent most of his time dormant to minimize consumption,”

Yan replied.

“Yes,” Lu Qing nodded slightly.

He had deliberately prevented the demon cultivator from receiving demonic energy replenishment.

He had always been wary of that creature,

even after imprinting the mark of enslavement on it.

Therefore, over the years, he had only occasionally given it a small amount of demonic energy, just enough to maintain its essence and prevent it from dissipating. He

absolutely prevented it from drawing too much power.

With a thought, a ball of light appeared in Lu Qing’s hand, enveloping a black hand.

At the same time, he also moved the demon cultivator, who was curled up and sleeping in the corner of the spiritual weapon space, over to him.

“Who!”

The demon cultivator was naturally awakened by the commotion.

However, when it saw Lu Qing, it was surprised: “Master!”

“I remember you said you were from the Tianyuan World and were one of the 108 demon generals under the command of the Black Sky Demon Lord?”

Lu Qing asked directly without any pretense.

The demon cultivator was stunned at first, then quickly said, “Yes, Master. In my memory, I was indeed one of the demon generals under the Demon Lord in my previous life.”

“If that’s the case, then you should be very familiar with the Tianyuan World?” Lu Qing continued.

“Reporting to you, Master.”

The demon cultivator was a little puzzled by Lu Qing’s sudden interest in the affairs of the Tianyuan World.

But this was a rare opportunity for it to show off, so it immediately said, “My little slave has experienced reincarnation and the mystery of the womb. Although my memory is somewhat distorted, I still remember most of the events of the Tianyuan Great World.”

“Well, then, tell me everything you know about the Tianyuan Great World, especially the distribution of the major factions and how outsiders can enter it.”

“How to enter the Tianyuan Great World? Could it be the master?”

Hearing Lu Qing’s words, the demon cultivator was shocked.

It thought of a possibility, but it couldn’t believe it.

After all, the Tianyuan Great World was incredibly far away from Lu Qing’s remote small world.

It hadn’t been asleep for long, so how could Lu Qing suddenly arrive in the Tianyuan Great World?

However, despite its shock, the demon cultivator didn’t dare delay.

After a moment’s thought, he said, “The Tianyuan Great World is one of the most powerful worlds in the Great Yuan Immortal Realm…”

After the demon cultivator’s explanation, Lu Qing gradually gained a clearer understanding of this great world.

According to the demon cultivator, the Great Yuan Immortal Realm was originally the territory of the Great Yuan Immortal Dynasty.

The Tianyuan Great World is one of the most powerful Great Worlds in the Great Yuan Immortal Realm, ruled by the Great Yuan Immortal Dynasty.

However, over a hundred thousand years ago, a catastrophic event struck the Great Yuan Immortal Realm, leading to the collapse of the Great Yuan Immortal Dynasty.

Several of the most powerful Great Worlds became independent, each acting independently, free from the control of the dynasty.

The Tianyuan Great World was one of these.

However, even with its independence, peace within the Tianyuan Great World was not at peace.

Multiple factions engaged in a fierce battle for world domination,

with the righteous and demonic factions engaging in the fiercest struggle.

The ultimate outcome was a battle of equal strength, with neither side able to defeat the other.

“Back then, I was hunted by the righteous cultivators and was forced to use the Heavenly Demon Reincarnation method to escape.

In the Tianyuan World, the strength of both the righteous and the evil were not far apart.

The Demon Lords and the many top Yuanshen realm cultivators of the righteous path checked and balanced each other, and rarely took action.

But the middle and low-level cultivators below were in constant friction and fought from time to time.

Back then, I was ambushed and hunted by many righteous cultivators during an exploration of a secret realm.

In the end, I was forced to abandon my physical body and use the Heavenly Demon Reincarnation method to reincarnate.”

“Middle and low-level cultivators…” Lu Qing pondered for a moment, then said, “Didn’t you say that you were a demon cultivator in the Yuanshen realm, and that powerful Yuanshen are also considered middle and low-level?”

“Yes, in the Great Yuan Immortal Realm, only powerful Yuanshen realm cultivators above the seventh calamity are qualified to be called top Yuanshen.

I was just a Yuanshen first calamity cultivator back then, and among the 108 demon generals under the Demon Lord, I was only a demon general ranked relatively low.”

Hearing this, Lu Qing’s heart was suddenly shocked.

A powerful being at the First Transformation of the Soul Realm is merely a mid-level cultivator within the Tianyuan World.

Yet, the Demon Lord to whom the demon cultivator served in his previous life already commanded 108 demon generals alone.

One hundred and eight Soul Realm cultivators, with their subordinates, likely numbered countless more at the Golden Core and Foundation Establishment stages.

And that’s just the power of one Demon Lord. It’s hard to imagine how many powerful Soul Realms exist within the entire Tianyuan World.

“Is this the foundation of a top-tier world? Compared to this, my home world is truly puny as dust.”

Lu Qing was deeply shocked, truly realizing the true depth of a great world.

He even pondered the immense power of the Great Yuan Dynasty, once able to command and control so many of the world’s greatest powers.

“Luckily I made it out this time. Otherwise, if I had stayed in my home world forever, I would have become a frog in a well.”

After Lu Qing calmed down,

he continued, “What should I do if I want to enter the Tianyuan World?”

Upon seeing the boundless might of the Tianyuan World,

Lu Qing knew that it would be impossible to infiltrate the Tianyuan World using the Void Flying Boat as he had done in his home world.

With his current level of cultivation, the Void Flying Boat wouldn’t even be able to pass through the fetal membrane of that world. He had to find another way. As expected

, the next moment, he heard the demon cultivator’s truthful report.

“Each of these great worlds is seamlessly integrated, and the powerful fetal membrane blocks most spatial magical powers and artifacts.

Therefore, even the most powerful Yuanshen (spiritual essence)

masters find it difficult to force their way in. Outsiders seeking to enter the Tianyuan Great World can only travel through the five smaller worlds outside, using the teleportation array.

Back when I was in the Tianyuan Great World, the five smaller worlds

were occupied by two each by the righteous and demonic paths, with the remaining small world held by the demon alliance.

I slept for years, undergoing multiple reincarnations, before finally unraveling the mystery of my womb.

It’s been quite some time since I left the Tianyuan Great World, and I wonder if the situation has changed.”

Lu Qing recalled the five smaller worlds he had seen slowly rotating around the Tianyuan Great World.

The auras they exuded were indeed distinct.

Two of the smaller worlds exuded a majestic and powerful aura of righteousness.

In contrast, the other two had a cold and overbearing aura, which displeased him.

The last remaining small world held a sinister aura, yet also a touch of unruly and unruly.

It was likely the small world occupied by the demonic race.

Clearly, the situation in the Tianyuan Great World hadn’t changed significantly during the demon cultivator’s absence.

“So, as long as we enter the small world and then use the teleportation array, we can enter the Tianyuan Great World, right?” Lu Qing nodded.

However, to his surprise, the demon cultivator shook his head.

“Of course it’s not that simple.”

“The Tianyuan World is vast and powerful, its might unimaginably strong.

Within it are countless opportunities and mysteries.

Even the omnipresent spiritual energy possesses myriad uses, far more potent than that of lesser worlds.

Such a magnificent world is a sacred place for cultivation, coveted by countless cultivators.

As such, entry is naturally not easy.

There are generally two ways for outsiders to enter the Tianyuan World.

One is to pay a considerable sum of spirit stones, gaining residency.

The other is to join a faction within the Tianyuan World.

Whether recruited as a disciple or becoming a guest elder within a sect, both qualify to enter the world.

However, becoming a guest elder is no easy feat.

Even within smaller sects, one must have a Jindan level or higher…”

“I see.”

As the demon cultivator spoke, Lu Qing finally realized how naive his previous thoughts had been.

Indeed, the Tianyuan World was so mysterious; if it were so easy to enter…

The cultivators from other small and middle worlds would likely have already rushed in, desperately seeking opportunities.

How could the local powers of the Tianyuan Great World tolerate such a situation?

“It seems I’ll have to choose a small world to temporarily reside in, and then see if I can enter the Tianyuan Great World.”

Lu Qing’s spirit stones were already limited, and they had been used up on this journey.

Now, the remaining spirit stones could be counted on the fingers of his ten fingers.

It was likely that they wouldn’t be enough to cover the cost of entering the Tianyuan Great World.

But regardless, he had to make contact before he could find a solution.

Next, Lu Qing questioned the demon cultivator about the details of entering the small world, ensuring he had a thorough understanding before he extended the black hand.

“You performed well this time. This Demon Body Palm is your reward.”

“Thank you, Master!”

The demon cultivator took the hand, delighted.

Over the years, Lu Qing had rarely entered the Lihuo Cauldron, making it rare for it to request demonic energy.

Furthermore, the “flame” itself disliked it, making it even less likely to deliver its message.

These years had been a difficult time for the demon cultivators, who could only rely on deep sleep to reduce the consumption of their original demonic energy.

Now, with this hand from his own body, he could finally replenish his demonic energy.

After giving the demon cultivator the hand, Lu Qing ignored the demon cultivator’s joy, withdrew his mind from the Lihuo Cauldron, and returned to his physical body.

Opening his eyes, he saw Xiao Li and Wu Xing, staring at him intently.

“Ah Qing, you’re awake! Can we set off now?”

Xiao Li asked immediately upon seeing Lu Qing awake.

“Almost. After making some more preparations, we can set off.”

Lu Qing then spent another two days making thorough preparations before finally piloting the Void Flying Boat towards the vast world ahead.

While the Tianyuan Great World seemed close at hand, it was still quite far from where Lu Qing and his companions were.

Lu Qing then drove the Void Flying Boat at a speed a hundred times the maximum speed of his home world for over ten days before finally arriving at one of the smaller worlds.

As they approached the Tianyuan Great World, Lu Qing and his companions felt the greater and greater sense of its vast and boundless power.

As they neared one of the smaller worlds, Lu Qing finally saw

a floating landmass, roughly the size of a state in his home world, floating on the outskirts of that small world.

A shrouded formation of light enveloped it, revealing magnificent buildings within.

It was a massive, imposing city floating in the starry sky.

“The five smaller worlds surrounding the Tianyuan Great World are effectively five gateways. Only

by passing through the teleportation arrays within these five portals can one officially enter the Tianyuan Great World.

However, even within those five smaller worlds, entry isn’t easy.

One must undergo screening and verification by the Starry Sky City above the smaller worlds, and only after their identities are verified can they enter.”

Lu Qing, reflecting on the demonic cultivator’s words, slowly slowed his Void Flying Boat and slowly approached the Starry Sky City ahead.

His chosen destination was naturally one of the two smaller worlds controlled by the Righteous Alliance within the Tianyuan Great World.

After all, the techniques he cultivated were truly righteous and upright.

If they were to enter a small world controlled by demonic cultivators, who knows what would happen.

As the Void Flying Boat approached the imposing gate of Starry Sky City,

a massive white light from a formation suddenly emerged from the gate and shot towards the Void Flying Boat.

Lu Qing remained unfazed, allowing it to envelop the Flying Boat.

He knew this was a necessary procedure for entering Starry Sky City.

The light from the formation wasn’t hostile; it was merely a test to see if his flying boat was a magical artifact.

Sure enough, after a brief, sweeping, shrouded light, it slowly receded.

Simultaneously, a gap appeared in the formation’s shield before the city gate, allowing the Void Boat to pass through.

Lu Qing steered the Void Boat through the gap, finally landing gently in front of the city gate.

He disembarked the Void Boat with Xiao Li and Wu Xing, then stowed it away.

Lu Qing then led the two children toward the city gate.

“My fellow Daoists, thank you for your long journey. May I know where you are from and what your name is?”

A slightly plump old man sat at a table and chair by the city gate, inquiring affably.

Yet, Lu Qing could sense the aura of the old man before him, like the deep ocean.

Without using his supernatural powers, he couldn’t discern its depth.

He immediately understood that this person must be a powerful Yuan Shen realm master, above the Golden Core stage.

He didn’t dare neglect the matter and immediately bowed respectfully, saying, “Junior Lu Qing, from a remote, small world. These two are my spirit pets. Greetings, Senior.”

“Greetings, Senior!”

Xiao Li and Wu Xing also saluted the old man nervously.

They could also vaguely sense the terrifying presence of the old man before them.
