I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 696

Chapter 696 Leaving the Secret Realm, the Void Wonderland

“Little one, didn’t you say before that you’d be in seclusion here for a while? Why are you suddenly leaving?”

the mysterious being asked, somewhat puzzled.

Upon returning to the secret realm, Lu Qing had specifically inquired about how long he could stay, clearly intending a long-term retreat.

Why had he suddenly changed his mind?

“I did originally intend to remain in seclusion here for a while, but things didn’t go my way, and I had reasons to leave,”

Lu Qing explained.

“So, you sensed your loved ones might be in danger, so you want to return home quickly?”

The mysterious being suddenly understood.

As for Lu Qing’s claim that he wasn’t a native of the Tianyuan World, he didn’t mind.

Their Wu Clan once ruled the vast starry sky and the endless worlds.

Why would they care about Lu Qing’s origins?

“Although I can’t be certain, if I don’t clarify this, I’m afraid I’ll be constantly troubled, and the effectiveness of my retreat will be greatly reduced,” Lu Qing said seriously.

“That’s true. If you’re restless, seclusion will only yield half the results with twice the effort. I’ll bring them back right away.”

The mysterious being nodded slightly.

The next moment, with a slight movement of his mind, Xiao Li and the others, who were still fighting in the light curtain, suddenly disappeared.

When they reappeared, they were already next to Lu Qing.

Xiao Li and the others were a little confused at first, but when they saw Lu Qing, they were all surprised.

“Ah Qing, you’re out of seclusion?”

Xiao Li whooshed and jumped onto Lu Qing’s shoulder.

“Yeah.”

Lu Qing nodded, holding Xiao Li in his arms and gently rubbing his head.

“Ah Qing?”

Xiao Li was a little confused. He seemed to sense that Lu Qing’s mood seemed a little off.

“Nothing, I just haven’t seen you in a while and wanted to hug you,” Lu Qing said with a smile.

“Oh.”

Xiao Li didn’t think much of it and rubbed his head against Lu Qing’s palm.

Lu Qing rubbed Xiao Li’s head a few times, calming him down before saying, “Xiao Li, get ready. We’re going home.”

“Going home?” Xiao Li’s eyes lit up, but soon he was puzzled. “But Ah Qing, didn’t you say you’d be in seclusion here for quite a while?”

“I did, but this time, my seclusion went better than expected, so I can go back early.

Besides, when we came out, I told Xiao Yan we’d be back in fifty years at the latest.

Fifty years have already passed, and I don’t know how worried Xiao Yan will be. It’s better to go back soon.”

Lu Qing didn’t mention his impulsive decision to avoid worrying Xiao Li.

“Great, we can finally go back!”

Xiao Li was instantly delighted.

Although safe in the secret realm, he still missed the people and things of his home world.

“Senior, how can we leave the secret realm? Will you escort us out?” Lu Qing inquired.

“This space has now sunk deep into the void, and even I can’t send you out.

Therefore, if you want to escape, you’ll have to rely on the teleportation tablet.

Only the rare treasure refined by that master can transcend this endless void and transport you.

But be careful, even the teleportation tablet can only return you to the point from which you entered.

So, be cautious when leaving and avoid being ambushed,”

the mysterious being warned.

“The teleportation tablet can only return me to my original location?”

Lu Qing was slightly surprised; this was something he hadn’t expected.

But then he thought about it. He’d activated the teleportation tablet deep within the Myriad Demons Mountains.

It wasn’t a significant location, and so much time had passed. It was unlikely that those powerful spirits would still be maintaining the formation.

After all, a formation capable of suppressing an area of space within a thousand miles was no small feat. The artifacts used to construct it required high-level spiritual artifacts.

Lu Qing didn’t think those powerful spirits would waste their energy in such an insignificant mountain.

“It seems you’ve made some preparations?”

The mysterious being asked with a smile, noticing Lu Qing’s expression.

“Those powerful Yuanshen beings back then probably didn’t expect me to appear again. As long as I’m careful, I shouldn’t be in any trouble.”

Lu Qing said, “But I have something I’d like to ask you, Senior.”

“Oh, what is it?”

“The reason I was found by those powerful Yuanshen beings back then was because one of their elders, Xiaobai’s same clan, used some secret bloodline technique to sense my location.

That technique was quite powerful, and it seemed even spiritual artifacts couldn’t completely block it.

If I were to leave like that, I’d probably be detected by those Yuanshen realm beings.

I wonder if you have any way to help Xiaobai conceal his whereabouts and prevent that Yuanshen Jiao King from sensing my location?”

“Just a small matter?” The mysterious being chuckled after hearing this. “Don’t worry about that. It’s just a simple bloodline sensing technique. Xiaobai has already mastered the first transformation of the True Dragon Nine Transformations, having already begun practicing.

Although [Nine Transformations of the True Dragon] wasn’t a particularly powerful technique, it could still transform the body and block bloodline induction.

As long as Xiaobai performed the transformation technique, not only would it be difficult for its elders, but even its own blood relatives would find it difficult to sense its location.

So you don’t have to worry about it being discovered again after you get out.”

“I see. Thank you for your guidance

, Senior.” Lu Qing was relieved upon hearing this.

He hadn’t expected [Nine Transformations of the True Dragon] to have such an effect.

As for Bai Jiao, upon hearing this, his face lit up with joy.

Honestly, after learning that those powerful Yuanshen had discovered their tracks because of him,

Bai Jiao still felt a deep sense of guilt and fear.

If Lu Qing hadn’t been so powerful, everyone would have been implicated by him and perished.

Now, hearing that he could block the Dragon King’s bloodline perception after practicing [Nine Transformations of the True Dragon], Bai Jiao finally felt relieved.

“In that case, I’ll take my leave now. I’ll come back to visit you when I’m free,”

Lu Qing said respectfully after bowing.

“That’s not necessary. You’ve used the teleportation stone tablet once, and you still have two uses left. Don’t waste them on such an insignificant matter. “

The mysterious existence said hurriedly.

“Junior knows the limits, senior, see you next time.”

After that, Lu Qing put Xiao Li and the others into the Lihuo Ding, then took out the teleportation stone tablet and activated it.

Suddenly, a mysterious wave enveloped him.

Then, the stone tablet tore through space, carrying Lu Qing into an endless, turbulent void.

After Lu Qing’s figure completely vanished, the space returned to calm.

After a long moment, a sigh echoed: “I wonder what realm these little guys will find themselves in next time they enter.”

The voice was faint, yet it carried a hint of loneliness.

…

“This endless void isn’t completely empty, but rather filled with wonders. What are they?!”

Enveloped in the wave of energy emanating from the teleportation stone tablet, Lu Qing observed the scenery outside.

Previously, when he entered the secret realm, he was on the run, constantly monitoring the situation within the Lihuo Cauldron.

His intense focus had left him no time for anything else.

Now, however, he could truly appreciate the scenery.

Upon observing, Lu Qing was surprised to discover that the endless void wasn’t the empty, dark space or endless, turbulent void he had initially imagined.

Instead, at the extreme speed of the teleportation stone tablet, he vaguely glimpsed some astonishing sights.

For example, he saw a golden temple floating within a bubble-like space.

Or, he saw a small island drifting amidst the turbulent currents of the void.

He even saw a thirty-sixth-grade blue lotus, bobbing in the turbulent void.

And within that turbulent flow, like the long river of time, even creatures so immense that their entirety was difficult to discern loomed.

Unfortunately, the teleportation tablets were so swift, these marvels passed by in a flash.

It was impossible to even see them clearly, let alone examine them closely.

Lu Qing had no chance to use his supernatural powers to investigate.

However, he could sense that each of these marvels exuded an incomparably terrifying aura.

If it weren’t for the teleportation tablets protecting them, even with his current strength, he would have been overwhelmed.

“It seems the endless void holds many secrets, but my strength is too low right now. I haven’t even begun to comprehend and master the laws of space, making it impossible for me to penetrate and explore them.”

Lu Qing knew that those marvels were beyond his current capabilities.

He was able to witness these marvels thanks to the teleportation stone tablet.

Without its protection, the terrifying spatial turbulence outside would have strangled him to death, even with his current strength, had his true form been exposed.

“I wonder if, after I reach the Fifth Tribulation of the Soul Realm and comprehend the power of space, I can then control the Void Flying Boat and explore the void?”

As Lu Qing watched the marvels occasionally fly by, a thought suddenly occurred to him.

The Void Flying Boat was essentially a component of a powerful Taoist artifact, and its power had now returned to that of a top-grade spiritual artifact.

However, precisely because of its high rank, even after Lu Qing reached the Soul Realm, he would find it difficult to unleash the true power of this rare treasure.

Perhaps he would have to wait until he reached the Fifth Tribulation Realm and comprehended the power of space before he could control this rare treasure to the point of wielding it with ease and at will.

As Lu Qing pondered this, the teleportation stone tablet carried him across countless layers of the void.

Finally reaching the surface of the void, a spatial rift suddenly opened, and he emerged.

Feeling the light pouring in, and the familiar aura of another world, Lu Qing knew he had arrived in the Tianyuan World.

He instantly became alert, his mana surging within him, and the Lihuo Cauldron stirring, ready to erupt at any moment.

Soon, Lu Qing reappeared in the Tianyuan World. The teleportation tablet’s light faded, returning to its ordinary appearance before landing in his hands.

Lu Qing’s spirit power instantly enveloped an area of a hundred miles, surveying the surroundings.

After a moment’s sensing, he found the surroundings completely peaceful.

Except for the traces of his earlier battle with the White Ape King, which remained,

the power of the vast formation that had sealed off space had vanished without a trace.

Aside from a few weak spirit beasts and demonic beasts, no powerful beings existed within the hundred-mile radius.

Lu Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

He had long anticipated that after so long, those powerful spirits wouldn’t still be waiting for him.

But that had been merely a prediction. Now that he was safe, he truly relaxed.

However, to be on the safe side, Lu Qing immediately took out a teleportation jade talisman and activated it.

With a spatial fluctuation, his figure suddenly vanished into thin air.

“Ah Qing, how do we leave the Tianyuan Great World?”

Xiao Li asked Lu Qing in a secluded forest.

“That’s a problem,” Lu Qing said, lost in thought.

The Tianyuan Great World wasn’t just any ordinary world; it was one of the most powerful in the entire Great Yuan Immortal Realm.

Its gale-force winds were so formidable that even ordinary Yuan Shen masters would struggle to survive for long.

Its boundary membrane was even more powerful and resilient, isolating everything and impenetrable even to spiritual artifacts.

He had originally entered the Tianyuan Great World thanks to Nangong Yuanwu, who had used the Nangong family’s teleportation array to sneak through.

But things were different now. He was facing numerous challenges and could no longer easily show up.

Nangong Yuanwu’s path was clearly a dead end.

If he were to come into contact with him, it was hard to say what would happen.

It wasn’t that Lu Qing didn’t trust Nangong Yuanwu, but people’s hearts were unpredictable, and he didn’t want to cause any complications.

Even if it was a universal teleportation array, he didn’t want to take it.

Lu Qing hadn’t forgotten that the Tianyuan World’s teleportation array was specially designed.

Using spiritual tools to conceal a Holy Spirit and secretly board aboard was prohibited. This

meant Xiao Li and Wu Xing would have to show up.

But even if they used the [Nine Transformations of a True Dragon] to transform, there was no guarantee anyone wouldn’t associate him with them.

After all, he had already deeply offended the Holy Alliance, and countless sects and families within the Tianyuan World’s human forces wanted him dead.

Given the nature of these powerful forces, Lu Qing knew without a doubt that they would rather kill ten thousand innocent people than miss a single opportunity to find him.

His possession of the three great spiritual beasts was no secret, and it was likely undetectable to those with ulterior motives.

“The teleportation array isn’t working. I guess I have to try that method.”

After much deliberation, Lu Qing finally looked up to the sky and made a decision.

He immediately summoned the Void Flying Boat and took Xiao Li and the others aboard.

Then, urging the boat to soar into the sky, he soared high into the sky.

Indeed, Lu Qing had come up with a plan: to control the Void Flying Boat and force his way through the Heavenly Origin World’s strangled wind layer and boundary membrane, leaving this world.

While the boundary membrane of the Heavenly Origin World was immensely powerful, the Void Flying Boat was essentially a Daoist weapon component.

Therefore, he felt there was a good chance of forcing his way out.

The Void Flying Boat, having made rapid progress, reached the strangled wind layer in just a breath and plunged headfirst into it. (End of Chapter)
