I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 859
Chapter 857 Apology and Three Divine Powers
For Lu Qing, the commotion that Xiao Yan and the others’ tribulations would cause in the Tianyuan Great World was of little concern.
With his current strength, he no longer needed to worry about such things.
However, the next moment, Lu Qing sensed something and looked up at the sky.
Just then, a somewhat apprehensive voice rang out: “Fellow Daoist, please wait! We have not offended you, but have come to apologize!”
As soon as the words fell, three figures appeared not far in front of Lu Qing and the others, their hands hanging down, looking extremely respectful.
“Alliance Leader!”
Qin Zheng and the others were greatly surprised when they saw the three figures clearly.
They recognized the three who had suddenly appeared. One of them was the strongest human in their Tianyuan Great World, the leader of the Holy Alliance.
The other two were the Demon Lord and the Monster Lord.
Of course, the reason Qin Zheng and the others knew these three was actually thanks to Lu Qing.
When Lu Qing took them into the Li Huo Cauldron, they had the good fortune to witness Lu Qing’s battle with the three major races within the cauldron, which was why they recognized these three figures.
Besides being surprised by Luo Yuantian and his group’s appearance, what shocked Qin Zheng and the others even more was that these three would actually appear together.
It would be understandable if the Demon Lord and the Holy Alliance Lord appeared, but the Demon Race and the Human Race were irreconcilable enemies.
If these two met, it would be a miracle if they didn’t fight to the death; how could they appear here together?
“What brings you three here?”
Seeing Luo Yuantian and his companions, Lu Qing had abandoned his usual politeness, speaking in a cold tone.
Earlier, when Xiao Yan and the others were undergoing their tribulations, these three dared to spy on them with their divine senses; he was already being lenient by not killing them. Now, he had no time for politeness.
Seeing Lu Qing’s indifferent expression, Luo Yuantian and his companions felt a chill run down their spines.
After exchanging glances, Luo Yuantian finally stepped forward.
“Fellow Daoist, we three were unaware that your people were undergoing their tribulations earlier and unintentionally offended you. Here are some small gifts we’ve gathered to apologize to you. We hope you can forgive our mistake and calm your anger.”
Luo Yuantian lowered his posture considerably and presented a storage bag with both hands.
Hearing this, Lu Qing hadn’t yet reacted, but Qin Zheng and the others gaped open again.
They hadn’t expected that Luo Yuantian and his group had come to apologize to Lu Qing.
“Apologize?”
Lu Qing was somewhat surprised; he hadn’t anticipated that these three had come with such intentions.
His gaze fell on the storage bag in Luo Yuantian’s hand. After a moment’s thought,
he subtly pulled the storage bag into his hand. He
probed inside with his divine sense, paused for a moment, then looked up.
A half-smile appeared on his face: “The three of you are quite generous, so many top-grade spirit stones. It seems I was too stingy with my compensation last time.”
However, the storage bag Luo Yuantian presented didn’t contain anything else, but rather top-grade spirit stones, considered treasures.
And the quantity wasn’t small, exceeding a hundred.
The three opposite him froze upon hearing this.
Immediately, Luo Yuantian gave a wry smile: “Fellow Daoist, we really have nothing left this time. To be honest, these top-grade spirit stones are our private stash, almost all of our wealth.”
“All of our wealth?”
Lu Qing remained noncommittal. These three guys had controlled the Tianyuan Great World for so many years; he naturally didn’t believe that this was all the top-grade spirit stones they possessed.
However, he also knew that these three guys had probably really spent a fortune to produce these top-grade spirit stones.
So he didn’t refuse, put away the storage bag, and then waved his hand.
“Alright, I’ve accepted the things. Consider this matter settled. You may leave.”
“Thank you for your magnanimity, Fellow Daoist! We take our leave!”
Luo Yuantian and the other two were overjoyed upon hearing this, and at the same time, they breathed a huge sigh of relief.
After hurriedly bowing, their three divine sense clones transformed into streams of light and headed towards the heavens.
Qin Zheng and the others, seeing this scene, were naturally shocked once again.
“Alright, let’s go back too.”
After putting away the storage bag, Lu Qing waved his sleeve, and his spatial power enveloped everyone, taking them away back to their underground cave.
“Fellow Daoist Lu, we wish to go into seclusion for cultivation first, is that alright?”
After returning to their cave, Qin Zheng and the others, having composed themselves, immediately asked Lu Qing.
It turned out that after watching Xiao Yan and the others undergo their tribulations, they had all gained some insights and wanted to quickly go into seclusion to digest and absorb these insights while they were still intact, turning them into their own foundation.
“Hmm, go ahead.”
Lu Qing naturally had no objection to this and nodded slightly.
However, just as Qin Zheng and the others were about to leave, Lu Qing suddenly said, “Daoist Master, after your seclusion ends this time, I should have time to accompany you.”
The Five Treasures Daoist was taken aback at first, then his eyes lit up with surprise: “Fellow Daoist Lu, you mean…”
Seeing Lu Qing nod, the Five Treasures Daoist became even more excited.
“Fellow Daoist Lu, I will try my best to comprehend and digest this insight!”
“There’s no need to rush. Cultivation requires a calm mind; one cannot be too hasty,” Lu Qing said with a smile.
Despite these words, Daoist Wubao still went to his seclusion with excitement.
“Brother, what did you promise Daoist Master that made him so happy?”
Xiao Yan asked curiously, watching Daoist Wubao’s departing figure.
“Nothing much, I just promised Daoist Master Wubao something, and since I have some free time recently, I can settle it.”
“Oh,” Xiao Yan replied, seemingly understanding.
“Let’s not talk about that.” Lu Qing then remembered something else. “Xiao Yan, when you were undergoing your tribulation, did you receive a divine ability bestowed by the Great Dao?”
Successfully undergoing tribulation, triggering the Great Dao’s blessing, and awakening a divine ability is the most supreme opportunity in the world.
Only those with extraordinary talent and boundless fortune can receive such a blessing when breaking through to a higher realm.
Lu Qing had already sensed a trace of the Great Dao’s imprint on the three of them, but he hadn’t inquired about it further.
Hearing Lu Qing’s question, Xiao Yan’s eyes lit up, and she nodded quickly, her little face full of joy: “Brother, I have indeed awakened a divine power! It’s a divine power with the attribute of ice. I just tried to circulate it, and it feels particularly compatible with my ice physique and the cultivation method I practice!”
As she spoke, Xiaoyan gently raised her small hand, and a wisp of crystal-clear icy power instantly swirled around her fingertips.
This icy power was different from ordinary icy spiritual energy; it contained the coldness of the Dao’s origin.
Wherever it passed, even the air was frozen, forming delicate ice flowers, each shimmering with a faint Daoist charm, utterly mysterious.
“Oh? Tell me in detail, what is the name of this divine ability, and what are its powers?” Lu Qing asked, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
“I sensed that this divine ability is called Ice Soul Divine Light, a talent divine ability that can continuously grow!”
Xiaoyan said happily, “As my cultivation level increases, the power of the divine ability will also become stronger.
Right now, I can only freeze everything within a hundred feet radius, but if my cultivation is perfected in the future, I can even freeze the heavens and earth, freeze time!
Moreover, it perfectly matches my physique, operating without any stagnation, and consuming very little spiritual energy!”
Ice Soul Divine Light, a growing icy divine ability.
Lu Qing understood immediately. Such a divine ability was extremely rare even among those in the Nascent Soul Realm.
Xiao Yan’s tribulation was remarkably successful, thanks to this blessing from the Great Dao.
With this ability, her combat power would increase exponentially, making her virtually invincible among those of the same realm.
“Very good. This divine ability complements you perfectly. With diligent cultivation, you will surely achieve great things,” Lu Qing praised, nodding.
Seeing Lu Qing praising Xiao Yan, Xiao Li and Xiao Bai quickly joined in, chattering excitedly, eager to share their own opportunities.
“Qing, Qing, I’ve also obtained another divine ability!” Xiao Li boasted, “And it’s a physical divine ability called the Immortal Vajra, which can also grow!”
As soon as she finished speaking, a golden light flashed around Xiao Li, and a dazzling golden halo instantly appeared on her small body.
Within the halo, faint Vajra runes flowed, radiating an indestructible and powerful aura. Even if a spiritual weapon were to strike it, it would likely be unable to harm it in the slightest.
“Another divine ability, the Immortal Vajra?”
Lu Qing was genuinely astonished as he sensed the golden light emanating from Xiao Li’s body.
Xiao Li already possessed several divine abilities, and now, with the addition of a physical divine ability, the number of divine abilities Xiao Li possessed far surpassed his own.
Not to be outdone, Xiao Bai wagged its tail and said, “Your Excellency, I also have a physical divine ability called the Profound Iron Overlord Body. Although it cannot grow, its defensive power is exceptionally strong; ordinary attacks cannot harm me at all!”
A thick, earthy-yellow halo also emanated from Xiao Bai’s body.
Its physical aura was steady and profound, like an ancient divine mountain, indestructible.
However, this divine ability lacked the flow of Daoist principles, clearly indicating that it was merely an ordinary minor divine ability, incomparable to the divine abilities acquired by Xiao Yan and Xiao Li.
Lu Qing naturally noticed this as well, but showed no disdain. Instead, he gently patted Xiao Bai’s head: “Although the Xuan Tie Overlord Body is a minor divine ability, its strength lies in its stability and solidity. It resonates with your bloodline, making up for your lack of combat power. It’s also an excellent opportunity.”
Receiving Lu Qing’s praise, Xiao Bai smiled happily, his little face full of satisfaction.
The three of them chatted excitedly, sharing their feelings about awakening their divine abilities, filling the cave with a joyful atmosphere.
After the three calmed down a bit, Lu Qing waved his hand, and three streams of light instantly flew out, landing in the hands of Xiao Yan, Xiao Li, and Xiao Bai respectively.
The streams of light dissipated, revealing their contents. Each of them held a storage bag containing high-grade spirit stones and a bottle of pills emitting a rich medicinal fragrance.
“Brother, what is this…” Xiao Yan held the storage bag and pills, looking at Lu Qing with a puzzled expression.
“These high-grade spirit stones, body-tempering pills, and soul-condensing pills are things I don’t need. You’ve just successfully transcended your tribulations, and your realms aren’t fully stable yet. Take these resources and use them to consolidate your cultivation, hone your foundation, and thoroughly integrate your understanding of the Great Dao into yourselves,”
Lu Qing said slowly, his tone full of doting affection. “The high-grade spirit stones are enough for you to absorb spiritual energy, the body-tempering pills can strengthen Xiao Li and Xiao Bai’s physical bodies, and the soul-condensing pills can stabilize your soul, allowing you to better control your supernatural abilities.”
Xiao Yan looked down at the storage bag in her hand, and with a sweep of her divine sense, she discovered that there were thousands of high-grade spirit stones inside.
The pills were also of extremely high quality, each one containing pure medicinal power. Such resources, if placed in the outside world, would be enough for countless cultivators in the Tianyuan Great World to fight tooth and nail for, but Lu Qing gave them away casually.
“Thank you, brother!”
“Thank you, A Qing!”
Xiao Yan, Xiao Li, and Xiao Bai all thanked him happily, their hearts filled with warmth.
In their hearts, Lu Qing was not only their support but also their closest person, and everything he gave them was the best.
“No need for formalities. Your strength is what matters most.”
Lu Qing waved his hand and continued, “The outside world is bound to be in turmoil because of your tribulation. Although Luo Yuantian and the other two have come to apologize, the other forces in the Tianyuan Great World may not be so peaceful. Focus on your cultivation in your cave and improve your strength. I’ll take care of everything outside.”
With Lu Qing’s words, the last trace of unease in the three women’s hearts vanished.
They knew that as long as Lu Qing was there, no danger could approach them.
“Brother, let’s go into seclusion now!” Xiao Yan gripped her storage bag tightly and said with a determined look in her eyes.
“Alright, go ahead. Choose a suitable cultivation room and cultivate in peace. Don’t worry about time or disturb each other.” Lu Qing nodded.
Xiao Yan, Xiao Li, and Xiao Bai bowed to Lu Qing again, then turned and walked towards their respective cultivation rooms in the cave.
Xiao Yan chose a cultivation room containing a cold ice spiritual vein, which was most suitable for her to cultivate the Ice Soul Divine Light.
Xiao Li chose a body-refining room surrounded by magma, using the high temperature to temper her immortal Vajra.
Xiao Bai chose a solid earth-elemental cultivation chamber to solidify his Xuan Iron Body.
The underground cave dwelling, originally built by Lu Qing, contained all five elements, with cultivation chambers of various attributes for everyone to choose from.
Soon, three figures entered the cultivation chambers, the array activated, and the cave dwelling returned to tranquility.
Lu Qing stood in the center of the cave dwelling, his gaze slowly sweeping over the closed cultivation chambers, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.
While Xiao Yan and the others’ growth was within his expectations, the divine abilities bestowed by the Great Dao were beyond his expectations.
With divine abilities protecting them, coupled with ample resources, their future achievements should be even greater.
Even reaching the Dao Integration Realm in the future wouldn’t be impossible.
Although with his current strength, even if Xiao Yan and Xiao Li achieved the Dao Integration Realm, it wouldn’t mean much to him.
However, watching these little ones who had always accompanied him break through and grow was itself a very happy thing.
This meant that Xiaoyan and the others could stay with him for a long time to come.
After waiting in the cave for a while and seeing that everything was normal, Lu Qing returned to his meditation room and sat down cross-legged.
The next moment, his mind returned to his main body.
Since everyone had started their secluded cultivation again, he, having nothing else to do, naturally couldn’t be idle any longer.
He had only deduced the beginning of the [Perfect Dao Integration Technique], and there was still much to be done.
Immediately, Lu Qing in his spatial cave also entered a state of cultivation. (End of Chapter)
