I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 791
Chapter 790 Successive Breakthroughs, the Holy Alliance’s Move
On this day, Lu Qing’s internal magical power finally reached its limit, sensing an opportunity for breakthrough.
Without hesitation, he directly activated the aura of tribulation from the darkness.
Instantly, a massive amount of tribulation energy and death energy surged forth, engulfing him.
Fortunately, the underground cave Lu Qing had chosen for seclusion was deep enough, and he had set up an array beforehand.
Otherwise, the sheer size of this tribulation energy alone would have attracted the attention of countless powerful figures.
Amidst the endless tribulation energy and death energy, Lu Qing remained unmoved.
Having already undergone the sixth tribulation of the Primordial Spirit, he was extremely familiar with the tribulations of the Primordial Spirit.
Although this seventh tribulation of the Primordial Spirit was much more powerful than the previous ones, Lu Qing was still able to maintain his composure and remain unmoved.
Even the tribulation manifested by the laws could not shake his Dao heart.
This tribulation of the Primordial Spirit lasted for seven days, which Lu Qing successfully overcame without incident, breaking through to the seventh tribulation of the Primordial Spirit and truly entering the late stage of the Primordial Spirit realm.
“Finally reached the Seventh Tribulation Realm.”
Lu Qing clenched his fist, feeling the surging power within his body, enough to overturn mountains and seas, a satisfied expression on his face.
The Nascent Soul Realm has nine tribulations, with each three tribulations representing a threshold, and breakthroughs bring a significant transformation in strength.
This time, he successfully stepped into the Seventh Tribulation of the Nascent Soul Realm, and his strength has seen another explosive increase.
However, although he broke through, Lu Qing did not immediately emerge from seclusion.
Instead, after relaxing his mind, he began a new round of closed-door cultivation.
Although breaking through to the Seventh Tribulation had improved the quality of his magical power, the help from high-grade spirit stones was still significant.
Therefore, Lu Qing did not want to miss such an opportunity for rapid improvement.
The stronger he was now, the more confident he would be in what he needed to do next.
Time flew by, and days passed one after another.
Lu Qing secluded himself in the underground cave to cultivate with all his might, ignoring worldly affairs.
But the Holy Alliance above ground was becoming restless.
Five years had passed, and the demon had only appeared once in Zhou Tian City, and had not shown up again.
No matter how many informants they deployed, they couldn’t find a trace.
Even posting a bounty in the Netherworld Palace yielded no information.
It was as if the demon, after breaching Zhou Tian City, had vanished from the Tianyuan Great World without a trace.
But the Holy Alliance knew this was impossible. Given the demon’s cunning, he couldn’t have stopped after merely conquering Zhou Tian City.
Behind it all, a far more powerful conspiracy must be brewing.
“Lei Tian, how is it? Have you found any trace of that demon?”
A figure covered in fur and sporting a lion’s head asked from within a light screen.
“No.” The dignified middle-aged man, Lei Tian, clad in a lightning-patterned robe, shook his head. “That demon is exceptionally cunning. Having acquired the treasures accumulated over hundreds of thousands of years by the Gongshu family, it’s probably already hiding somewhere, digesting its treasures. What about your demon race? Have you found anything there either?” “
No.” The lion-headed figure also shook his head. “We sent the White Flood Dragon King all over the world, but he couldn’t sense any bloodline fluctuations from its descendant. Perhaps the demon kept that beast by its side this time, or perhaps it used a secret technique to isolate the bloodline connection between them.”
“You haven’t found anything there either…”
Lei Tian’s heart sank upon hearing this.
Although this result was within his expectations, he was still somewhat disappointed when he actually heard it.
For some reason, the more he couldn’t find any trace of the demon, the stronger his bad premonition became.
It was as if a shadow was looming over his mind, growing heavier and heavier.
The lion-headed figure had the same premonition.
It remained silent for a moment, then suddenly said, “Lei Tian, I think we can’t continue to be so passive. That demon is in the shadows, while we are in the open. If we hold out too long, we’ll lose. We must take the initiative and pursue him.”
“We can’t even find any trace of that demon, so how can we take the initiative?” Lei Tian asked, puzzled.
“Didn’t your Holy Alliance capture some cultivators related to him? According to you, that demon seems to be protective of his own. In that case, why not use those cultivators to force him out?” the lion-headed figure suggested.
Lei Tian’s fingers trembled. This suggestion had actually been discussed by their Holy Alliance before.
However, due to the opposition of some elders, they ultimately failed to pass this plan.
Now, seeing the lion-headed figure bring it up again, Lei Tian pondered.
After a while, he said, “Our Holy Alliance needs to discuss this matter.”
“I really don’t know what you’re hesitating about. They’re just some Golden Core cultivators. If they die, they die. What’s there to regret? Lei Tian, you need to think this through. That demon is an anomaly. If he finishes digesting all the treasures of the Gongshu family, then I’m afraid no one will be able to control him.”
The lion-headed figure snorted coldly, then disappeared, having already deactivated the communication array.
Only Lei Tian remained, lost in thought.
Rumble, rumble…
In the underground cave, endless deathly aura and tribulation energy permeated Lu Qing’s surroundings, interspersed with streaks of tribulation lightning, looking extremely terrifying.
“Brother has broken through again.”
Xiao Yan murmured as she watched this scene.
She had a feeling that after reaching the Nascent Soul Realm, her brother’s cultivation speed had actually increased. He
had only been in seclusion in this underground cave for a short time, and he had already undergone his second tribulation.
“It’s normal. A Qing is like this every time he goes into seclusion.”
Xiao Li, on the other hand, seemed quite used to it.
There was no way around it; it had followed Lu Qing the longest and had witnessed such scenes far too many times.
“I wonder how much stronger brother will become after this Nascent Soul Tribulation,”
Xiao Yan thought, recalling the day Lu Qing cleaved Zhou Tian City in two with a single sword strike.
Her brother was already so powerful then; now, having survived two more Nascent Soul Tribulations, his strength would likely leap forward again.
Thinking of herself, although her progress during her years of seclusion hadn’t been as dramatic as her brother’s,
she had still achieved a small breakthrough under the incredibly rich spiritual energy, now reaching the eighth level of the Golden Core realm.
Even the ninth level wasn’t too far off.
Xiao Yan finally understood why Xiao Li and Wu Xing, despite being spirit beasts, cultivated faster than her, a human.
It was simply because the cultivation environment of the Tianyuan Great World was too excellent, the spiritual energy too abundant.
She even felt that even without daily cultivation, her cultivation level would steadily increase simply through the self-circulation of her cultivation technique.
Boom!
With another muffled sound, a new change occurred on Lu Qing’s side.
Everything surrounding him—whether deathly aura, tribulation energy, or the lightning of laws—transformed into a vortex, completely absorbed by him. Once
everything returned to calm, the divine might of the Great Dao enveloping Lu Qing suddenly changed, with massive amounts of energy surging from the endless void, engulfing him.
Lu Qing, in turn, accepted it all without resistance, circulating his cultivation technique to absorb it all, transforming it into his own foundation and accumulation.
“Ah Qing has successfully transcended the tribulation!”
Xiao Li exclaimed upon seeing this familiar scene.
As the last trace of strange energy was absorbed and refined, Lu Qing slowly opened his eyes.
Instantly, Xiao Yan and the others trembled.
They felt as if Lu Qing’s eyes contained the endless mysteries of the universe, making their minds feel as if they were being drawn into them.
Fortunately, this strange phenomenon was fleeting and was quickly suppressed by Lu Qing, allowing everyone’s minds to return to normal.
Lu Qing did not notice Xiao Yan and the others’ abnormality. Having successfully transcended the tribulation, he focused his attention on the changes within his body.
To be precise, it was on his natal magic treasure, the Yin-Yang Five Elements Gourd.
After entering the Eighth Tribulation Realm, his strength had naturally increased again.
However, what surprised Lu Qing the most was the change in the Yin-Yang Five Elements Gourd.
During these two tribulations of the primordial spirit, the Yin-Yang Five Elements Gourd had refined a large amount of tribulation energy again.
Now, inside it, a primordial source emanating the aura of tribulation was brewing, as if something was about to be born from it.
Lu Qing could sense that once the essence within this primordial energy truly took shape, it would be the time for the Yin-Yang
Five Elements Gourd to advance to a high-grade spiritual artifact. “Judging from this situation, by the time I undergo my ninth tribulation, the Yin-Yang Five Elements Gourd will be almost ready for its transformation.”
Lu Qing sensed the aura within the Yin-Yang Five Elements Gourd and understood somewhat.
He immediately felt a surge of anticipation.
Even among magical treasures, there was a significant difference between a natal magical treasure and one refined and controlled through ordinary means.
Because it was intertwined with the cultivator’s life, the power unleashed by a natal magical treasure was often far superior to that of an ordinary magical treasure.
A high-grade spiritual artifact-level natal magical treasure, in the hands of a powerful figure like Lu Qing, could even rival the power of a top-grade spiritual artifact.
Of course, besides its power, what Lu Qing valued even more was the potential of the Yin-Yang Five Elements Gourd.
From the weapon-refining inheritance left by the Immortal Palace, Lu Qing knew that it was extremely difficult for a spiritual artifact to advance to a Dao artifact.
It was far more difficult than a cultivator achieving the Dao Integration Realm.
However, he saw a glimmer of such a possibility in the Yin-Yang Five Elements Gourd.
If this natal magic weapon could continue to evolve like this, perhaps when he reached the Dao Integration Realm, he might actually possess a Dao Artifact-level natal magic weapon.
Lu Qing still yearned for Dao Artifacts.
Just look at the Void Flying Boat; it was merely one of the 108 Dao Artifact Flying Boats, not yet fully restored to its power, yet its ability to traverse the void was unmatched even by Dao Integration Realm experts.
If it were a complete Dao Artifact, how terrifying would that be?
Not to mention a natal Dao Artifact.
Lu Qing had a feeling that as long as the Yin-Yang Five Elements Gourd continued to grow, it would definitely become one of his most powerful trump cards.
Besides the Yin-Yang Five Elements Gourd, the Divine Soul Talisman held in the other hand of the primordial spirit figure had also undergone significant changes.
This cultivation method, inherited from the Divine Talisman Sect of his home world, had already been innovated and developed by Lu Qing to an extremely high level.
The runes and intricate patterns on the Soul Talisman were so complex that even a Nascent Soul Realm array master would feel dizzy at a glance.
Now, the Soul Talisman not only guarded the space between the eyebrows but also possessed powerful killing abilities, capable of annihilating an enemy’s soul invisibly.
However, Lu Qing hadn’t used it to kill an enemy yet, so he didn’t know the exact level of its power.
After carefully sensing the changes in his own strength, Lu Qing finally focused his attention on what was before him.
Seeing Xiao Yan and Xiao Li staring at him expectantly, he couldn’t help but smile.
“What’s wrong? Why are you all looking at me like that?”
“Ah Qing, your aura just now was so frightening, like a real immortal!” Xiao Li spoke first.
Xiao Yan and Wu Xing nodded repeatedly.
The moment Lu Qing opened his eyes, they all felt their minds were about to be lost.
“It’s not that exaggerated. I just finished my tribulation, and I still carry a trace of the Great Dao’s aura, which is why your minds were somewhat affected.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Qing immediately understood what was going on.
“Brother, you’re already at the Eighth Tribulation Realm. Are you going to continue your seclusion and try to break through to the Ninth Tribulation of the Primordial Spirit in one go?” Xiao Yan asked.
Lu Qing was about to answer when suddenly his mind stirred, and his brows furrowed slightly.
“Ah Qing, what’s wrong?”
Xiao Li noticed the change in his expression and immediately asked.
“I have a sudden feeling, let me try to deduce it.”
Since changing his divination technique at the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion and integrating it to create the [Myriad Realms Deduction Technique],
Lu Qing has achieved a profound level of expertise in divination. He
even occasionally senses things related to himself in the future.
Just now, he suddenly had a sudden feeling, as if something related to him was about to happen.
However, the feeling wasn’t very strong, which puzzled him.
Immediately, Lu Qing conjured an illusionary space, within which countless stars began to circulate.
Following the sudden impulse within his heart, Lu Qing continuously deduced the events.
Finally, a notice posted on the city wall appeared within the illusionary space.
Upon reading the notice’s contents, Lu Qing immediately understood what was happening.
“So that’s it. They want to force me to show myself by using the lives of Wu Bao Daoist and Ye Qingzhu. They really think highly of me, believing me to be a person of great loyalty and righteousness?”
Lu Qing’s eyes turned cold as he looked at the notice displayed in the illusionary space.
The notice stated that Wu Bao Daoist and Ye Qingzhu had colluded with demons, were despised by humanity, and would be executed in a year, their souls annihilated, as a warning to others.
“These old bastards from the Holy Alliance are truly despicable and shameless, capable of doing such a thing!”
Xiao Li couldn’t help but curse as she looked at the notice.
“Brother, what do you plan to do?”
Xiaoyan looked at Lu Qing with some worry.
She could also see that the so-called Holy Alliance was using her brother’s friend’s life to force him to appear.
Since they were going to use such methods, they must have laid a trap.
If her brother really went, wouldn’t he be walking into a trap?
But Xiaoyan also understood that, given her brother’s personality, it was unlikely he would refuse.
Sure enough, upon hearing Xiaoyan’s words, Lu Qing chuckled.
“Then naturally I’ll go and meet them. These people have gone to great lengths to see me; if I don’t go, wouldn’t I be disappointing them?” (End of Chapter)
