I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 777

Chapter 776 Passing on the Sword Dao, Exchanging Techniques

“What exactly is that mysterious jade piece?”

Returning to his primordial spirit, Lu Qing gazed at the vast world origin before him, lost in thought.

He had initially thought the unusual movement of his primordial spirit imprint was due to some obstacle encountered during the process.

Unexpectedly, he saw a fragmented, mysterious jade piece at the very center of the world origin.

Moreover, it seemed the entire world origin revolved around that mysterious jade piece.

This was something he had never anticipated.

Unfortunately, even using his special abilities, he couldn’t discern the details of the mysterious jade piece.

Even merely observing it had already significantly depleted his mental energy.

It should be noted that since Lu Qing’s consecutive breakthroughs, his special abilities had also increased considerably.

With his current level, even a Dao artifact should be able to reveal information given enough time.

Could it be that the level and rank of this mysterious jade piece were even higher than a Dao artifact?

But Dao artifacts were supreme treasures that only Dao Transformation Immortals could forge.

What kind of treasure could be above the Dao Artifact level? What kind of being could forge such a treasure?

His inheritance from the Immortal Palace contained no information on this.

However, he had a hunch that this mysterious jade block must contain an extremely astonishing secret.

If he could decipher it, it might be an incredible opportunity.

“Well, judging from the appearance of this mysterious jade block, it must have been in the world’s origin for countless years. Given enough time, there will always be a chance to unlock its mysteries.”

Lu Qing pondered for a long time but couldn’t find an answer, so he had to give up for the time being. In

any case, in his home world, no one else besides him could enter this origin space.

He still had enough time to slowly unravel the secrets of the mysterious jade block.

However, that would probably have to wait until his primordial spirit imprint continued to grow to a certain extent, or until his realm made a greater breakthrough and his abilities underwent further transformation.

Because his mental energy was greatly depleted, Lu Qing didn’t linger in the origin space. Instead, he traveled through the world, his primordial spirit returning to his body to recuperate.

Nothing happened that night. The next morning, Lu Qing arrived at the small courtyard halfway up the mountain.

Seeing his master drinking tea with Wei Shanhai under the plum tree,   Wei Shanhai exclaimed with delight,

“Young Master Lu, you’ve emerged from seclusion!”   ”It’s been many years! Senior’s cultivation has improved considerably; congratulations!” Lu Qing smiled.   For the past twenty years, only his master and a few others, including Xiao Yan, knew he had left his hometown.   The villagers and the Wei family were unaware, assuming he had been in seclusion.   After all, in their eyes, with Lu Qing’s level, decades of seclusion wouldn’t be unusual.   ”My cultivation is insignificant compared to Young Master Lu. If I can achieve the Golden Core stage in this lifetime, I’ll be content,” Wei Shanhai chuckled.   Although Lu Qing was now a Nascent Soul Realm expert, Wei Shanhai still habitually addressed him as Young Master Lu.   ”Senior has accumulated much knowledge and experience; overcoming the Golden Core tribulation shouldn’t be difficult,” Wei Shanhai said.   Wei Shanhai’s aptitude wasn’t particularly outstanding to begin with.   Lu Qing had given him a wisp of primordial energy as one of the bargaining chips in exchange for the Fire Cauldron.   Refining this primordial energy had transformed Wei Shanhai, significantly enhancing his potential.   With his master’s occasional guidance over the years, he had finally reached the peak of the Foundation Establishment realm.   With further refinement, achieving the Golden Core stage should be a certainty.   This progress, of course, couldn’t compare to Lu Qing and his ilk, and was even far behind geniuses like Hu Zezhi, who were blessed with great fortune.   However, compared to many ordinary cultivators, it wasn’t slow.   After all, the spiritual energy revival in their home world had only occurred a little over a hundred years ago.   The number of Golden Core cultivators in the entire world was still quite small. Those   who could reach this realm were already considered to be at the level of a supreme elder of a major sect.   After chatting for a while, Wei Shanhai realized that Lu Qing had come to see the old doctor, so he tactfully took his leave.   ”Master, I obtained some sword dao inheritance in the Guixu Secret Realm this time and gained some insights. Perhaps you will be interested,”   Lu Qing said after Wei Shanhai left.   ”With your current level, what you have comprehended must be extremely powerful,” the old doctor said, immediately intrigued.   He couldn’t discern Lu Qing’s true cultivation level, but he knew that his disciple’s ability to return safely from the perilous Guixu Secret Realm meant that   his cultivation had made significant progress over the years.   ”Master, please look,”   Lu Qing said, extending his palm. A small world of sword energy condensed in his palm and slowly rotated.   ”This is…”   The old doctor stared at the small world of sword energy, his mind immediately captivated.   He felt that this small world of sword energy condensed by Lu Qing was full of mysteries, and it unconsciously drew upon a domain essence rising within him.   He instantly fell into a state of enlightenment.   Seeing this, Lu Qing smiled slightly.   Because of the rules of the Immortal Palace, he could not directly pass on the sword dao inheritance left by the Guixu Daoist to his master.   However, demonstrating his understanding of the true essence of swordsmanship to his master was acceptable.   After all, his master had already truly forged his own path in the way of the sword; even without a specific cultivation method, the true essence of swordsmanship wouldn’t prevent him from comprehending it.   And his master’s cultivation aptitude was indeed as formidable as ever.   Just one glance was enough for him to enter a state of enlightenment.   Lu Qing didn’t disturb his master’s meditation, simply maintaining the operation of the small sword energy world.   With his cultivation level, this expenditure was negligible; even if he maintained it continuously, it wouldn’t be a burden.   And so, the master and disciple remained in this state.   About an hour later, the old doctor slowly awoke from his state of enlightenment.   ”Ah Qing, that’s enough. Disperse this small sword energy world,” the old doctor said.   ”Master, have you finished your comprehension?”

Lu Qing’s thoughts stirred slightly, and the small world of sword energy quietly dissipated.

“Hmm, I’ve reached the limit of my comprehension. Anything beyond that is beyond my current level.”

The old doctor rubbed his temples; clearly, the comprehension he had just undergone had consumed a considerable amount of his mental energy.

However, the old doctor was in a joyful mood.

Through sensing the profound mysteries of the sword intent displayed by Lu Qing, he had also captured inspiration, further refining his own sword dao domain.

With this comprehension alone, although he was still only at the seventh level of the Golden Core stage, he had no doubts about the path before the Nascent Soul stage.

He even had a sliver of his own understanding of the Nascent Soul stage.

“Master’s comprehension is indeed astonishing,” Lu Qing praised.

“Stop teasing your master,” the old doctor said with a laugh.

After the master and disciple joked around for a while, Lu Qing’s expression became slightly more serious.

“Master, I should be going to the starry sky again in a few days. Would you like to come with me?”

“Going to the starry sky?”

Upon hearing this, the old doctor fell into deep thought.

He wasn’t surprised that Lu Qing wanted to leave his home world again; Lu Qing had mentioned it during dinner yesterday.

He knew that the cultivation environment in his home world was simply insufficient for his disciple’s needs.

Even he himself, after reaching the seventh stage of the Golden Core realm, felt the spiritual energy in the world becoming increasingly scarce, slowing his cultivation considerably.

This was even more true for a Nascent Soul cultivator like Lu Qing.

Therefore, if Lu Qing wanted to continue improving his cultivation, he had to leave his home world and venture into the starry sky.

Only those vast and magnificent worlds in the starry sky could prevent his cultivation from stagnating.

However, when Lu Qing asked if he wanted to go to the starry sky as well, the old doctor hesitated.

He pondered for a moment, then finally shook his head: “It’s not necessary. My cultivation is still quite good. I just comprehended the true meaning of the sword you displayed and gained some insights. It’s time for me to go into seclusion; I’m afraid it’s not appropriate for me to go out with you.”

“Master, don’t you want to go out and see the wonders of other worlds in the starry sky?”

“Of course I do,” the old doctor smiled.

As a cultivator, how could he not be interested in the magnificent and diverse world?

“But not now. Let’s think about traveling through the stars after my cultivation advances further and I can reach the Nascent Soul Realm. Ah Qing, didn’t you say that the starry sky is vast, and only those at the Nascent Soul Realm have the ability to traverse it?” “

It seems Master has already made up his mind.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Qing immediately understood his master’s intention.

So, his master wanted to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm before traveling through the stars.

Immediately, he stopped trying to persuade him.

“But since you’re going out, take Xiao Yan with you this time. Although that girl has good talent, her Dao heart is still not sufficiently tempered. It’s a good opportunity to take her on a journey to broaden her horizons,” the old doctor said.

“That’s exactly what I was thinking,” Lu Qing nodded.

“Since you’ve already made your plans, then I don’t need to worry about it. When do you plan to leave?”

“In a few more days. I don’t know how long this trip will take, so I’ll rest at home for a while.”

“That’s good. It’s rare for you to come back, so take this opportunity to see the elders in the village. Otherwise, when you come back next time, I don’t know if you’ll still be able to see them.”

Lu Qing was silent for a moment.

He naturally understood his master’s meaning.

In fact, when he returned this time, he had already sensed that the aura of the older generation in the village had diminished.

The spiritual energy of his hometown world had been recovering for over a hundred years.

Most of the villagers he knew back then didn’t have the aptitude for cultivation.

Even with the nourishment of the village’s spiritual energy and vitality, which could prolong

their lives, the lifespan of mortals is ultimately limited. Unless they break through to the Innate Realm, it’s difficult to pass the 150-year mark.

So now, there aren’t many still alive.

Lu Qing doesn’t know how long this trip will take before he returns.

With his current level, perhaps a period of seclusion could last for decades.

When he returns next time, it’s very likely that none of the villagers he knew will still be alive.

After a moment of silence, Lu Qing nodded slightly, “Disciple understands.”

In the days that followed, Lu Qing returned to his leisurely lifestyle.

The spiritual energy of his home world couldn’t improve his cultivation.

So, he spent his days guiding Xiao Yan and the others in their cultivation, and helping the village elders with their health.

At night, he would project his primordial spirit into his original space to comprehend the profound mysteries of the Great Dao within the world’s origin.

Of course, he also took this opportunity to visit some old acquaintances.

He paid visits to several Holy Lords of the Holy Mountain, Lin Zhirui and the Master of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, and others.

Everyone was naturally overjoyed by Lu Qing’s visit.

The Master and his disciple, especially, felt deeply honored.

After all, Lu Qing now held a revered position, truly the number one person in the world.

For such a great figure to still remember their past and come to visit them was an overwhelming honor for the Master and his disciple.

“Senior Master, I have a request to make of you,”

Lu Qing said politely to the Master of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion.

“No, no, Your Excellency, you flatter me.” The Master of Tianji Pavilion hurriedly said, “What can I do for you?”

He dared not address Lu Qing as “young friend” as he had in the past.

“This junior wishes to see your sect’s divination techniques. Is that convenient? Of course, I will exchange them with appropriate treasures.” Lu Qing stated his purpose.

“I know what it is. It is an honor for Your Excellency to have my Tianji Pavilion’s rudimentary techniques seen. I fear they are not worthy of Your Excellency’s attention.”

The Master of Tianji Pavilion immediately instructed Lin Zhirui to bring all the techniques and inheritances collected by Tianji Pavilion.

“Your Excellency, all the techniques collected by Tianji Pavilion are here. Which ones would you like to see?”

The Master of Tianji Pavilion asked respectfully, holding a pile of jade slips and books.

“I’ll take a look at them all.”

“Then please make yourself at home, Your Excellency. We will wait outside. Please give us any instructions.”

The Master of Tianji Pavilion left with Lin Zhirui, leaving Lu Qing alone in the quiet room.

Lu Qing didn’t mind, picked up the jade slip in front of him, and began to peruse it.

The cultivation techniques collected by the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion were mostly acquired and innate techniques, with very few even reaching the Foundation Establishment stage.

With Lu Qing’s current level, he could fully understand their mysteries at a glance.

He quickly flipped through them, and soon a smile appeared on his face.

Sure enough, the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion contained what he needed.

After reading all the jade slips and books, he got up and left the meditation room.

The Heavenly Mystery Pavilion Master, who was waiting outside, hurriedly bowed: “Your Excellency.”

“I have found what I wanted. Thank you, Senior. Here are a few cultivation techniques as a token of my gratitude. I have other matters to attend to, so I will take my leave now.”

Lu Qing handed the jade slips to the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion Master and then drifted away.

Only the master and disciple remained, looking at each other in bewilderment.

“Master, what cultivation techniques from our Heavenly Mystery Pavilion could possibly be so valued by Lord Lu Qing?”

After a while, Lin Zhirui, who had already entered the Golden Core stage, couldn’t help but ask.

“Even I don’t know,” the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion Master said, equally bewildered.

The most profound cultivation technique in their Heavenly Mystery Pavilion could only be cultivated to the Golden Core stage.

And that technique was obtained from the Holy Mountain, supposedly passed down by Lu Qing.

The most profound of the other techniques was only at the Foundation Establishment level, and even that was incomplete.

Logically, it shouldn’t have attracted the attention of a Nascent Soul level expert like Lu Qing.

Could it be that there were some mysteries in the techniques collected in the pavilion that they hadn’t been able to decipher?

The Heavenly Mystery Pavilion Master pondered for a while, unable to find a solution, and then focused his attention on the jade slips Lu Qing had just given him.

After examining the contents of the jade slips with his mind, he couldn’t help but tremble.

“Master, what’s wrong?” “

These cultivation techniques left behind by Lord Lu Qing are all Nascent Soul level techniques,”

the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion Master murmured, gazing in the direction Lu Qing had left.
