I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 801

Chapter 800 The Way of Cause and Effect, Exchange Successful

In a palace on Tian Sheng Peak, Lu Qing sat cross-legged,

holding the jade slip given to him by the Five Treasures Taoist.

A large array was set up around him for early warning and defense.

Looking at the jade slip, Lu Qing activated his supernatural ability.

Soon, several pieces of information floated out from the jade slip.

Lu Qing looked at the information and chose to download and simulate it.

After a while, when his supernatural ability prompted him, he chose to learn it.

The next moment, a large amount of information and insights surged from his mind, and Lu Qing entered a state of cultivation.

He didn’t know how much time had passed, but when Lu Qing awoke from his cultivation state, his eyes were filled with surprise.

“Indeed, I wasn’t wrong. The divination technique cultivated by the Five Treasures

Taoist is indeed extraordinary.” Back in the Witch Clan’s trial realm, Lu Qing had sensed the strangeness of the Five Treasures Taoist’s divination methods.

Hearing him say earlier that he could predict his near-death experience only confirmed his suspicions.

Over the years, in his home world, Lu Qing had been diligently studying and comprehending the Dao of divination.

Although he had gained some insights, he was still a far cry from the Dao of Cause and Effect that the old Azure Dragon had spoken of; he hadn’t even scratched the surface.

After hearing the Five Treasures Taoist’s words, he had a feeling that the divination technique the other party cultivated might be of considerable use to him, which was why he proposed an exchange.

Now, after some contemplation, Lu Qing was certain that he hadn’t guessed wrong.

The [Purple Star Destiny Scripture]—this was the divination technique cultivated by the Five Treasures Taoist.

Or rather, it wasn’t just a divination technique; it was a profound technique that elucidated destiny, fate, and the cause and effect of fortune.

When cultivated to its highest level, it could directly lead to the Dao Integration Realm.

Furthermore, the technique didn’t only contain the Dao of divination; it also contained various curses, assassinations, and methods for intercepting and seizing the fortune of others—methods for fighting enemies.

However, these methods required a powerful divine soul to unleash.

Only after entering the Nascent Soul Realm could one cultivate them.

The Five Treasures Taoist was currently only at the late Golden Core stage. Aside from divination skills, he couldn’t comprehend or apply many of the profound methods within the *Ziwei Destiny Scripture*, hence his claim of only having a superficial understanding.

However, things were different now that it was in Lu Qing’s hands.

Because within the *Ziwei Destiny Scripture*, he finally glimpsed a trace of understanding the Dao of Cause and Effect.

“Destiny, fate, fortune, curses, etc., are all closely related to cause and effect. While this *Ziwei Destiny Scripture* cannot be said to directly point to the Great Dao of Cause and Effect, it allows one to glimpse a trace of cause and effect.”

At Lu Qing’s level, he had long understood that there were distinctions of superiority and inferiority among different Daos.

Different paths were divided into Great Daos and Lesser Daos.

Paths like the Great Dao of Metal and the Great Dao of Water could be called Great Daos.

Paths derived from Great Daos, such as the Dao of Sharpness and the Dao of Ice, could only be called Lesser Daos.

And the mysterious Great Dao of Space, and the even more mysterious Great Dao of Time, were kings among all the Great Daos.

Whether in terms of its profound mystery or its power, it far surpasses ordinary Great Daos.

Even the unpredictable and mysterious Great Dao of Cause and Effect is no less powerful than the Great Daos of Space and Time.

Compared to these Great Daos, the Great Daos of Metal and Wood, while equally vast in power, are still inferior.

However, if one cultivates all five elements simultaneously, like Lu Qing, and ultimately comprehends all five Great Daos, then it will be a completely different story.

With all five elements gathered, even against the Great Daos of Space and Time, one will not be inferior in the slightest.

“Similarly, the Dao of Destiny, the Dao of Fortune, and the Dao of Curses, although merely minor paths derived from the Great Dao of Cause and Effect, if cultivated to a sufficiently profound level, it is possible to glimpse a trace of the essence of the Great Dao of Cause and Effect!”

Lu Qing grew increasingly excited as he thought about it.

The power of the Great Dao of Cause and Effect needs no further explanation.

According to the old Azure Dragon, in ancient times, the Cursed Elder only comprehended one branch of the Great Dao of Cause and Effect—the Dao of Curses.

This alone was enough to make many Dao Transformation Immortals somewhat wary.

If one were to comprehend an even more powerful Dao of Cause and Effect, how powerful would that be?

More importantly, once Lu Qing gained some understanding of the Dao of Cause and Effect, he would have a way to deal with the method of resurrection from a divided spirit.

In the future, when slaying enemies, he wouldn’t have to worry about them being resurrected and causing him trouble soon after he killed them.

Therefore, Lu Qing had to find a way to master this Dao of Cause and Effect, no matter what.

Suppressing his excitement, Lu Qing once again began his seclusion to comprehend it.

Time always passes quickly during cultivation, and three days passed in the blink of an eye.

That morning, Lu Qing suddenly opened his eyes, stretched out his palm, and condensed a black light.

This black light was extremely profound, filled with an evil aura, and at the same time, it writhed like a living thing, making people feel cold at the sight of it.

But Lu Qing was unmoved, and even showed a smile on his face.

“The Dao of Curses, I have finally gained some understanding.”

After three days of comprehension, Lu Qing had comprehended the [Purple Star Destiny Scripture] to a very profound level.

He had an extremely deep understanding of destiny, fortune, and curses.

His divination skills have now completely surpassed those of the Five Treasures Daoist.

Even his curse techniques have reached an extremely terrifying level.

It can be said that even without using other abilities, Lu Qing could easily curse and kill an elder-level expert simply by casting curses.

However, it is precisely through comprehending the Dao of Curses that Lu Qing understands that casting curses actually has many limitations.

He needs to know enough information about the enemy, such as their name and birth date.

Or he needs to obtain items containing the opponent’s aura, such as personal belongings, hair, or blood.

The more prepared he is, the smoother the curse killing will be.

But even so, casting curse killing still comes at a price.

The stronger the target’s cultivation, the higher the price he needs to pay.

If the enemy is too strong, he might even be unable to withstand the backlash of the Great Dao and die.

“No wonder the Dao of Curse Killing can only be a minor path; it’s purely a path that harms others without benefiting oneself,” Lu Qing shook his head.

However, his greatest purpose in studying the Way of Curse Killing was to comprehend the essence of the Way of Cause and Effect.

Therefore, he didn’t care about the limitations of the curse-killing technique.

After all, he had many ways to kill enemies.

Just as Lu Qing was pondering, suddenly, an aura appeared, enveloping the entire Tian Sheng Peak.

“Hmm? You’re back, quite punctual.”

A smile appeared on Lu Qing’s face, and he lightly shook his palm, dispelling the black light.

Indeed, this aura was Luo Yuantian’s.

With a flash, Lu Qing disappeared from the main hall.

When he reappeared, he was already in the sky above the top of Tian Sheng Peak.

“Fellow Daoist.”

Luo Yuantian’s face was originally somewhat anxious, but after seeing Lu Qing, his expression clearly relaxed.

He was really worried that Lu Qing would leave Tian Sheng Peak while he was collecting spirit stones.

In that case, the lives of the elders would truly be beyond saving.

“It seems that you have collected the spirit stones.”

Lu Qing stood in mid-air with his hands behind his back, speaking leisurely.

Luo Yuantian’s face stiffened, and then he said, “Fellow Daoist, I have been running around for the past three days and have finally managed to gather a batch of spirit stones. Do you still stand by what you said earlier?”

“As long as you can provide enough spirit stones, I will naturally stand by what I said.”

“Alright!”

Upon hearing this, Luo Yuantian didn’t hesitate and immediately tossed out a storage bag.

“Here are two hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones and one hundred top-grade spirit stones. As you previously stated, I’ll exchange them for thirty portions of resurrection resources.”

Lu Qing took the storage bag and mentally examined it.

Finding the amount exactly as Luo Yuantian had described, he was immediately satisfied.

Without hesitation, he took out a storage bracelet and tossed it over.

A few days ago, Lu Qing had already opened the Holy Alliance’s treasury and taken out the resurrection resources, dividing them into several portions.

However, due to his comprehension of the [Purple Star Destiny Scripture], he hadn’t had time to inventory the remaining treasures.

Seeing the storage bracelet Lu Qing tossed out, Luo Yuantian’s eye twitched, but he felt no joy.

Lu Qing’s action meant he had successfully opened the Holy Alliance’s treasury.

The thought of the Holy Alliance’s accumulated treasures over so many years falling into Lu Qing’s hands made even Luo Yuantian, a Dao Integration Realm cultivator, feel a pang of heartache.

Even though it pained him, Luo Yuantian knew he couldn’t do anything to Lu Qing.

So he could only keep a straight face and check his storage bracelet.

“Sir, are thirty portions of resources enough to revive all the elders? Why didn’t you buy more?”

At this moment, Lu Qing, still somewhat unsatisfied, asked again.

Three days ago, more than twenty elders had died at his hands.

However, the higher the cultivation level of a cultivator, the more resources were needed to revive them. For

a powerful cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, reaching the seventh tribulation or above, one resurrection resource was probably not enough to revive them.

For someone like the Nascent Soul ninth tribulation perfect deputy alliance leader who had been killed by his punch, the resources required to revive him would be even greater.

According to Lu Qing’s estimate, thirty portions of resurrection resources were probably not enough to revive all the elders.

“That’s no need for you to worry, fellow Daoist. Although I’m not wealthy, I still have some resources in my collection.”

Hearing Lu Qing’s words, Luo Yuantian’s face twitched, and then he said expressionlessly.

He thought of the hard work of collecting spirit stones these past few days, and his mood became even more aggrieved.

“I see.” Lu Qing’s face showed a regretful expression. “However, if you need anything, you can come to me anytime, and I can give you a better price.”

Ten thousand high-grade spirit stones or ten top-grade spirit stones for a resurrection resource—this deal was simply too good to pass up.

More importantly, the resources were obtained by himself.

For Lu Qing, this was a completely risk-free deal.

“Thank you for your kindness, fellow Daoist. Please leave, fellow Daoist. I need to prepare to resurrect the elders, so I won’t see you off.”

Luo Yuantian’s expression became even more unpleasant, and he directly gave him the order to leave with a cold face.

“Then I won’t disturb you any longer. However, before I leave, there is something I would like to advise you on.” Lu Qing said.

“What is it?” Luo Yuantian asked with a blank face.

“Elder Lei Tian of your alliance is quite ambitious. This whole affair is largely due to him.

I advise you to carefully consider whether or not to resurrect him.

Otherwise, if I see him again, he will be dead.”

Lu Qing’s words were calm, but they caused Luo Yuantian’s expression to change slightly.

He understood the threat in Lu Qing’s words.

Yet, he couldn’t ignore it.

“Your Excellency, then I’ll take my leave.”

Lu Qing looked at Luo Yuantian’s face, chuckled, then cupped his hands in a gesture of respect. Spatial fluctuations rippled, and his figure vanished from the spot.

Only Luo Yuantian remained, his face ashen.

He felt the spatial fluctuations caused by Lu Qing’s departure slowly subside.

Luo Yuantian remained silent, recalling what an elder had told him telepathically earlier.

He knew that what Lu Qing said upon leaving wasn’t fabricated.

The calamity that the Holy Alliance had suffered this time was indeed largely due to Lei Tian.

Thinking of the losses suffered by the Holy Alliance, and how he, a dignified Dao Integration Realm cultivator, had to feign compliance and humbly submit to a mere Nascent Soul Eighth Tribulation cultivator

, even the usually indifferent Luo Yuantian felt a surge of resentment.

He slightly moved his hand, and a Soul Lamp appeared in his palm.

“Alliance Leader, did you exchange resurrection supplies with that demon?”

A slightly urgent soul fluctuation emanated from the soul lamp; it was Lei Tian’s voice.

“I exchanged them,” Luo Yuantian said calmly.

“Excellent! Alliance Leader, after we are resurrected, we must find a way to completely eliminate that demon. He dared to insult you, Alliance Leader; his crime is unforgivable!”

Lei Tian exclaimed joyfully.

However, he failed to notice the increasingly cold gaze in Luo Yuantian’s eyes.

“Alliance Leader…”

*Bang!

* Lei Tian wanted to say something more, but the next moment, the soul lamp inhabiting his wisp of soul exploded.

Caught off guard, Lei Tian’s wisp of soul was immediately exposed.

“Ah! Alliance Leader, what are you doing?!”

Lei Tian was terrified. As a rootless, fragmented spirit, without the protection of the Soul Lamp, it would easily be obliterated by the rules of heaven and earth, utterly annihilated.

Lei Tian shouted, but he found that the Alliance Leader was completely unmoved, merely watching him coldly.

Instantly, he realized that the Alliance Leader had deliberately destroyed the Soul Lamp.

“Alliance Leader, why? Why!” Lei Tian roared in disbelief.

But Luo Yuantian seemed to have no intention of explaining. He flicked his finger, and a wisp of energy emanated, enveloping Lei Tian.

Instantly, Lei Tian’s voice stopped abruptly, and this fragmented spirit completely vanished into the world.

After doing all this, Luo Yuantian descended towards Tian Sheng Peak.

Just as he was about to begin reviving the elders, he suddenly noticed something amiss and looked towards one of the main halls.

Then he saw that the hall’s doors were wide open.

He felt a sense of unease and his figure entered the hall.

A few breaths later, a voice filled with gritted teeth echoed from the main hall.

“Damn it!”

…

Lu Qing was naturally unaware of what had happened after he left.

However, what he said before leaving was true.

Now it remains to be seen how Luo Yuantian will weigh things.

Even if Lei Tian is resurrected, he’ll still kill him the next time they meet.

“Ah Qing, where are we going now?”

In the sky, Xiao Li asked, perched on Lu Qing’s shoulder.

“To collect debts. Besides the Holy Alliance, there’s another score we haven’t settled after this attack,” Lu Qing said calmly.
