I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 599
Chapter 599: The Seventh Turn of the Golden Elixir Method
The Twelve Golden Core Transformations is a realm clearly described in the Dao chapter that Lu Qing attained.
It’s a realm only a Perfect Golden Core can reach.
According to the Dao chapter, the limit for a flawless, innate, and superior Golden Core is the Ninth Golden Core Transformation, while the limit for a Perfect Golden Core is the Twelve Golden Core
Transformation. That’s a full three more levels!
As you know, in cultivation, the difference in strength can be enormous, even for a small level.
The cultivation limit for a Perfect Golden Core is a full three more Transformations than a flawless, innate, and superior Golden Core.
One can imagine the enormous disparity in foundational potential between the two.
It’s for this reason that Lu Qing, at the Fifth Golden Core level, ventured into the Divine Mountain Secret Realm.
He had the confidence to defend himself even against powerful Jindan Daoists.
Lu Qing had originally believed that, with his current profound foundation and potential, there would be no more elixirs or treasures in the world that could further enhance his potential at the Golden Core level.
But the appearance of the witch’s primordial blood overturned his assumptions.
It actually allowed his body, already stronger than that of a physical cultivator, to be further strengthened, undergoing a fundamental transformation.
“As expected, the path of cultivation is boundless and contains countless secrets. I’ve seen so little, yet I dare to talk about my limits. I’m so arrogant, like a frog in a well.”
Feeling his body’s growth, Lu Qing reflected silently.
Finally, after the strand of Jindan-level witch’s primordial blood was fully refined, Lu Qing estimated that his body had strengthened by approximately one percent.
While one percent may not seem like much, considering Lu Qing’s current formidable body, a one percent increase is a truly remarkable effect.
If translated into actual data, it would be a truly astonishing figure.
Remember, previously, when he had refined ten strands of foundation-building-level primordial blood, his body had only strengthened by one thousandth.
This was just the essence blood extracted from a black wolf beast at the initial stage of the Golden Core stage. If the essence blood contained within the beast were even more potent, it would surely be even more potent!
“In that case, there’s no need to rush into the ancient tower.
Let’s seize the opportunity before us first.” Lu Qing wasn’t worried that other powerful individuals would preempt the opportunity within the ancient tower.
This secret realm was left behind by the ancient witch clan.
The inheritance within must also be related to the witch clan.
The witch clan’s inheritance must be related to physical cultivation, and even the trials within the tower were likely related to this as well.
Therefore, Lu Qing didn’t believe that those powerful forces could easily pass the trials
of the ancient tower and obtain the inheritance. Even he himself had no confidence that he could pass the trials of the ancient tower.
A bird in the hand is worth a hundred in the bush, so he decided to seize the opportunity of the witch’s essence blood first.
He also had a hunch that if he continued to refine the essence blood, his body would undergo an unimaginable transformation.
By then, even if no other opportunities arose, this journey to the secret realm would have been completely worthwhile.
“Ah Qing, how are you feeling?”
Xiao Li asked hurriedly upon seeing Lu Qing open his eyes.
“Very good! This primordial blood has significantly strengthened my physical body. And while the evil spirit within has intensified, you should be able to withstand it.”
“I can refine it, too? Then, Ah Qing…” Xiao Li’s eyes lit up at this.
Lu Qing nodded, “Well, tomorrow we’ll go hunt a few more Jindan-level beasts and refine their bloodlines.”
There were eighteen beasts surrounding the ancient pagoda. Aside from the three most powerful late-stage Jindan beasts in the innermost area, which he wasn’t sure about, he was confident he could hunt the others.
Xiao Li’s face beamed.
Lu Qing sensed the outside world and found that refining the primordial blood had taken much less time than he had expected.
Therefore, it was still early outside, not even dark yet.
He had previously sent a message to Taoist Wubao, saying he would be in seclusion for a while, but it was not a good time to go out now.
After a moment’s thought, he pulled out several jade slips from his Qiankun Qi bag and arranged them in front of him.
Looking at the three rows of jade slips before him, Lu Qing fell into deep thought.
These slips all contained Jindan-level cultivation techniques.
Some he had purchased earlier in Tianshu City.
Many more were taken from the looting bands of wandering cultivators he had encountered on his journey with the Five Treasures Taoist priests not long ago.
In total, he now had nearly thirty jade slips.
With these, perhaps he could achieve a breakthrough in his deduction of the [Perfect Jindan Method], which had hit a bottleneck.
With this thought in mind, Lu Qing picked up a jade slip, activated his supernatural power, and examined it.
Soon, several messages floated from the slip.
…
“Ayu, these Qiankun Sect people are so ungrateful. It’s a blessing for them that we’re willing to join forces with them, and yet they dared to refuse us?”
the woman from the Gongshu family said angrily in the dense forest.
Behind her, the other members of the Gongshu family also had gloomy expressions.
Gongshu Yu remained silent, his eyes downcast, as if lost in thought.
“Ayu, I’m talking to you. What are you thinking about?”
the woman asked again, receiving no response.
She waved her hand in front of his eyes a few times.
“What did you say?” Gongshu Yu came back to his senses.
“I’m talking about how you plan to deal with the Qiankun Sect. They dared to insult our Gongshu family. If we don’t teach them a lesson, others will think we’re easy to bully!”
“Let’s put the Qiankun Sect aside for now. Our top priority is finding a way to enter the ancient pagoda. That’s the most important thing.”
Although Gongshu Yu was also annoyed by Qin Zheng and the others’ attitude, he still knew what was most important.
“But the Qiankun Sect is unwilling to join forces. I’m afraid we can’t enter the ancient pagoda on our own?”
“So, we have to find other helpers.”
“Find someone else? Who?” the woman was stunned.
“Of course, we’re looking for those forces that are quite powerful, but like us, we can’t break into the ancient pagoda on our own.” Gongshu Yu closed his jade fan. “I already have a few targets in mind. Let’s go.”
Night fell quietly, and the entire dense forest fell into silence.
From time to time, there would be a slight movement, which was the sound of strange beasts hunting.
However, those who could lurk in this dense forest were no ordinary strongmen.
As long as the dozen or so guardian strange beasts guarding the ancient pagoda did not come out, the strange beasts in the forest posed no threat to them.
So that night, the dense forest passed in relative peace.
When the morning light broke, at the dawn of the next day, Lu Qing opened his eyes in the wooden house.
A light flowed in his eyes, like the vast starry sky, and in the depths, an endless light of wisdom flickered.
Over the past night, he had used his supernatural powers to comprehend the nearly thirty Jindan-level jade slips.
He finally had a clue about the seventh level of the [Perfect Jindan Method].
