I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 581
Chapter 581: Fusion Core, Flying Boat Transformation, Secret Realm Movement
Lu Qing’s reason for studying the Void Core within the Lihuo Ding’s spiritual artifact space was naturally to maintain secrecy.
After all, the Void Core was the power source of the Void Flying Boat, and there was no telling what would happen if they came into contact.
While his cave abode contained formations to mask aura fluctuations, it was only a Jindan-level cave abode and not particularly secure.
The Lihuo Ding was a mid-grade spiritual artifact, more specifically a suppressive one. The spiritual artifact space within it was incredibly stable, and it also had the ability to block auras and shield causal relationships.
Even if any changes did occur, these two layers of shielding would be difficult for the outside world to detect.
With the appearance of the Void Flying Boat, “Yan” quieted down.
As an artifact spirit, it naturally understood the boat’s strengths and weaknesses. Seeing Lu Qing suddenly produce it, it knew something important must be going on.
“Hmm?”
As soon as he released the Void Flying Boat, Lu Qing sensed a mysterious connection between the Void Core in his hand and the boat. He
subtly tried to fly out of his hands and towards the boat.
At the same time, he sensed a suction force emanating from the Void Flying Boat, attempting to draw the Void Core in.
He didn’t stop it, releasing the silver sphere and allowing it to fly toward the boat.
The moment the sphere made contact with the boat, the Void Flying Boat’s entire structure shifted like flowing water, completely absorbing it.
The next moment, a burst of light erupted, a dazzling silver light emanating from the Void Flying Boat.
An immensely powerful force emerged from nowhere, sweeping across the four directions.
Sensing this might, “Yan”‘s expression suddenly changed.
As a weapon spirit, it felt awe at this power.
It was an instinctive reverence for a magical weapon far beyond its own essence.
Lu Qing, sensing the overwhelming power emanating from the Void Flying Boat, felt a sense of relief.
Fortunately, he had chosen to fuse the core within the spiritual weapon’s space. Otherwise, the aura of such a powerful magical weapon would be impossible to conceal from the cave formations outside.
By then, the entire Tianshu City would be alarmed by this aura.
Meanwhile, anticipation filled his eyes.
It was unknown what new changes would occur to the Void Flying Boat after this fusion.
After dozens of breaths, the fusion was still not complete. Instead, the aura emanating from the Void Flying Boat grew increasingly powerful.
Even the spiritual space within the Lihuo Cauldron began to vibrate and ripple faintly.
Lu Qing was forced to work with Yan to activate the formation within the cauldron, only then was the spiritual space stabilized.
A full quarter of an hour passed before the Void Flying Boat and the core merged, the power gradually subsiding and the silver light gradually dimming.
When the silver light completely faded, revealing the Void Flying Boat’s true form,
Lu Qing discovered that while the gaps in the previously damaged hull remained, they had become significantly smaller.
The aura of the boat had also become more restrained, yet a faint, profound and vast power emanated from it.
The entire boat, simply resting there, could be felt vibrating and pulsating through the surrounding spiritual space.
“Master, this boat…”
Yan cried out in shock.
It could sense that the Void Flying Boat was now far more powerful than before.
This filled the spirit of a mid-grade spiritual artifact with a deep sense of fear.
“Let me take a look,”
Lu Qing’s tone was also tinged with excitement.
He had already refined the Void Flying Boat, and now, through the soul imprint he left within the boat, he could sense that the Void Flying Boat’s power had undergone a qualitative transformation.
But he still had to slowly explore and discover the exact changes.
Lu Qing first activated his supernatural power and gazed at the Void Flying Boat.
After a long moment, a purple supernatural light, almost condensed into a substance, emerged from the boat, and several notes floated out.
[Void Flying Boat: Rare Treasure, Dao Artifact Remnant.]
[This boat is one of the main components of a powerful Dao Artifact. Made of a unique material, it was once severely damaged. After integrating the Void Power Core, the damage has been greatly improved, its power has been restored, and it has now leapt to the level of a top-grade spiritual artifact.]
[A Dao Artifact is a magical weapon that contains the laws of an entire Dao, capable of becoming a Dao Artifact.]
This flying boat possesses the ability to traverse the void and escape at breakneck speed.
After integrating its power core, the Void Flying Boat has become a complete entity, drawing energy from the vast void to restore itself. … “
It
has indeed been restored to the level of a top-grade spiritual weapon!”
Lu Qing’s eyes lit up with immense surprise as he read the messages.
Although he had a premonition of the Void Flying Boat’s power the moment he
felt it, seeing the message confirming its restoration to the status of a top-grade spiritual weapon still filled him with excitement.
This is a top-grade spiritual weapon!
The frenzy at the auction just half an hour ago over the Immortal Golden Bell was still fresh in his memory.
Even the most powerful forces were willing to spend hundreds of millions of spirit stones to secure it.
One can only imagine the preciousness of a top-grade spiritual weapon.
Unexpectedly, after integrating the core, the Void Flying Boat also became a top-grade spiritual weapon.
Furthermore, according to the message, the core integration had completed the Void Flying Boat.
Now it can absorb the energy of the myriad voids and continue to recover.
When it completely repairs the boat, it will probably undergo another transformation!
“And those major forces, because they wanted to save their strength to fight for the Immortal Golden Bell, I successfully took the photo of the Void Core.”
Lu Qing was surprised and relieved.
The gains from this auction were truly immense.
Even if nothing came of his next venture into the secret realm, this trip to Tianshu City would have been completely worth it.
After finally calming himself down a bit, Lu Qing began to carefully sense the changes within the Void Flying Boat with his mind.
He discovered that the Void Flying Boat had not only experienced a qualitative increase in power, but
more importantly, at the innermost center of the boat, a silver sphere, enshrined in an incredibly complex and abstruse rune formation, slowly rotated. With
each rotation, a vast amount of energy was drawn from the depths of the void, stored, and slowly repaired the boat,
completely ignoring the spiritual artifact barrier of the Lihuo Cauldron .
The process was incredibly slow, and Lu Qing estimated that at this rate, it would take hundreds of years to fully repair the boat.
But he was already very satisfied.
This time, after the Void Flying Boat had integrated its core, it had not only been restored to the level of a top-grade spiritual artifact.
Furthermore, with a core constantly drawing energy from the void, he would no longer need to constantly expend spirit stones to activate the Flying Boat.
“Unfortunately, there are too many powerful beings in the Tianyuan World, so I can’t test the power of the Flying Boat after its transformation.”
Once the power of a top-grade spiritual weapon is unleashed, it will surely be astonishing and shocking.
It’s possible that it will be sensed by some old monster cultivating somewhere unknown.
With his current strength, if the outside world discovered that he possessed a top-grade spiritual weapon,
those top forces and the old monsters of the Yuanshen would likely swarm over him and tear him apart.
Therefore, Lu Qing decided not to use the Flying Boat unless it was a matter of life and death.
After sensing it for a moment, Lu Qing finally stored the Flying Boat in his Qiankun Yiqi Bag.
“Master, has the quality of this Flying Boat improved?”
At this moment, “Yan” couldn’t help but ask.
“Indeed, the Void Flying Boat has now transformed into a top-grade spiritual weapon,” Lu Qing nodded.
“So it’s really that!”
Yan couldn’t help but be shocked.
Although, as an artifact spirit, it had already suspected something when it had just felt the Void Flying Boat’s power far exceeding its own,
it was still shocked when it heard Lu Qing’s confirmation.
“Master, what was that silver sphere just now?”
Since arriving in the Tianyuan Great World, Yan had remained obediently within the Lihuo Cauldron.
It no longer manifested itself from time to time as it had in its home world.
It even rarely dared to use its spiritual sense to observe the outside world.
For it knew that the Tianyuan Great World was not its home world.
There were many Yuanshen realms here, and the spiritual perceptions of those powerful beings were extremely keen.
If this artifact spirit were discovered, it would probably bring Lu Qing great trouble.
Therefore, Yan only knew that Lu Qing had attended the auction, but had no idea what happened there.
“This sphere is one of the core components of the Void Flying Boat,” Lu Qing replied. “I found it at an auction and happened to buy it back.
I never expected it would elevate the boat’s quality to a new level.”
“Master, your luck is truly extraordinary.”
Yan couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.
Just by going to an auction, he’d come across the core that could transform the Void Flying Boat.
Lu Qing’s sheer luck was truly astonishing.
“It was just luck,” Lu Qing smiled. “By the way, Senior Yan, I have a favor to ask of you.”
“Master
, please speak.” Yan’s spirits perked up at this.
“I’d like to refine a set of flying swords, but I need to retreat for a while and can’t spare the time.
Senior Yan, please help me refine the sword blanks first. The main material will be this meteorite.”
Lu Qing waved his hand, and a large piece of meteorite appeared before him.
“Want to use this meteorite iron to refine a sword blank? Leave it to me!”
Upon hearing that Lu Qing was going to use meteorite iron for a sword blank, Yan immediately understood that the flying sword he was going to forge would be something extraordinary.
After all, meteorite iron was no ordinary material; it was a peerless, divine ingredient used to refine spiritual instruments.
“Master, what design would you like?”
“A sword blank would look something like this.”
Lu Qing lightly traced the outline of the desired flying sword in the air.
Yan took a look and immediately memorized it: “Master, rest assured, I’ll refine it as quickly as possible.”
“Of course, I trust you to do it.”
Lu Qing had great confidence in Yan’s refining abilities.
This being was, after all, an ancient being who had lived for tens of thousands of years.
In the ancient era of immortal cultivation, the Lihuo Sect would always utilize the Lihuo Cauldron to refine important magical weapons and elixirs.
Influenced by this, and personally participating in the process, Yan’s skill in refining instruments and elixirs reached a similarly high level, at least reaching the master level.
Moreover, the Lihuo Cauldron had long since returned to its prime, making it easy to refine a few sword blanks.
After exhorting “Yan” a few more times, Lu Qing left the spiritual weapon space.
“Ah Qing, how’s it going?”
Xiao Li, who had been squatting beside the Lihuo Cauldron, immediately jumped onto his shoulder upon seeing him emerge and asked.
“A big harvest,” Lu Qing rubbed his head. “After the core was integrated into the flying boat, the Void Flying Boat’s rank has been restored to that of a top-grade spiritual weapon.”
“Top-grade spiritual weapon?!”
Xiao Li’s eyes widened, his mouth slightly open in disbelief.
He recalled the previous auction, where top powers had fiercely competed for bids for a top-grade spiritual weapon.
Back then, like Lu Qing, he had been stunned by the value of a top-grade spiritual weapon.
He had never imagined that, in the blink of an eye, he would also possess a top-grade spiritual weapon.
“Ah Qing, so, doesn’t that mean we have 150 million spirit stones?” Xiao Li asked, somewhat stunned.
“You can’t convert it like that.” Lu Qing couldn’t help but laugh as he looked at it. “Top-grade spiritual artifacts are incredibly valuable, and no one would easily auction them off. The
fact that it appeared at this auction was due to unique circumstances.
After this, I’m afraid it won’t happen again for thousands of years.
Besides, our Void Flying Boat is far more precious than ordinary top-grade spiritual artifacts, far more valuable than spirit stones can ever measure.”
Furthermore, even the Immortal Golden Bell had its drawbacks.
It wouldn’t be easy for the powerful force that won the bid to completely control it.
Lu Qing thought to himself, recalling the note he had discovered at the auction with his supernatural powers.
He knew the story of the Immortal Golden Bell was far from over.
This top-grade spiritual artifact was likely to stir up a huge stir in the future.
However, Lu Qing kept these things to himself, Xiao Li.
After playing around with Xiao Li for a while, Lu Qing composed himself and prepared to begin his retreat.
During this retreat, he once again activated his supernatural powers to continue comprehending the Seven Star Sword Formation.
He had already comprehended six of the seven basic sword intents required for the Seven Star Sword Intent.
Only the final and most important one, the Tianshu Sword Intent, remained to be comprehended.
An aura of enlightenment surged through Lu Qing.
Before long, he successfully comprehended the Tianshu Sword Intent.
At this point, he had fully grasped all seven basic sword intents.
Next, he would fuse these seven sword intents and condense them into the Seven Star Sword Intent.
Only after successfully condensing the Seven Star Sword Intent could he formally cultivate the Seven Star Sword Formation.
This step was no easy task. Normally, refining the Seven Star Sword Intent required at least the Soul Formation Realm.
Lu Qing, possessing supernatural powers and a unique rarity in the world of cultivation, was able to achieve this near-impossible feat.
Time slipped quietly as Lu Qing meditated.
Tianshu City, however, became abuzz with activity.
News of the auction spread rapidly.
The appearance of a top-grade spiritual artifact and the sale of 150 million spirit stones sparked heated discussion.
Upon learning of the details, many cultivators who had not attended the auction instantly regretted their decision.
It was truly a great regret that I didn’t get to witness such a grand spectacle.
And amidst all this excitement, another piece of explosive news suddenly broke out.
“What did you say? There’s something unusual happening in the secret realm that’s being nurtured atop the sacred mountain?”
