I Can See Through Everything-Chapter 486

"Forget it, the boat will naturally straighten when it reaches the bridge."

After sighing for a while, Lu Qing calmed his mind.

All these situations were within his expectations.

After all, his starting point was simply too high. The power of a Perfect Golden Core was overwhelmingly strong.

Yet, the speed of this world's Spiritual Revival could not keep up with the speed of his cultivation.

Difficulties in cultivation were something he had already foreseen.

Fortunately, he possessed supernatural abilities and numerous rare treasures that could aid his cultivation.

Otherwise, his cultivation time would have been extended at least tenfold.

After settling his thoughts, Lu Qing took out his Communication Talisman.

This closed-door breakthrough had lasted quite a long time. He wondered if anyone had tried to contact him.

Scanning it with his Divine Sense, Lu Qing found that there were indeed quite a few messages.

The first transmission was from his Master, sent six months ago.

His master mentioned that he had been traveling across the land and discovered a rare flower. It could be used to concoct an extremely potent Detoxification Powder that was gentle enough for even ordinary people to consume.

His master suggested that once he returned to the village, they could research it together.

Next, there were messages from Wei Shanhai, Lin Zhirui, and others.

Most were just updates on their recent situations, with nothing particularly important.

Apart from these, the one who had sent the most messages was Xiao Yan.

The little girl had also been traveling lately, bringing along Xiao Li and Wuxing.

Whenever she arrived at a new place or encountered something interesting, Xiao Yan would send Lu Qing a message to share her experiences.

Thus, most of the messages in the Communication Talisman were stories from her.

For example, she would talk about some delicious food she had tried, or about a beautiful spiritual flower she had found in a forest.

Though Xiao Yan mostly spoke of trivial matters, Lu Qing read each message with great interest, occasionally smiling.

Over the past years, he had spent most of his time in Sacred Mountain, cultivating in seclusion.

As a result, he had far fewer opportunities to accompany Xiao Yan.

Now, seeing that she was having fun outside, he felt a sense of relief.

However, as he read further, his brows furrowed slightly.

In the later messages, Xiao Yan had begun mentioning a few companions she was traveling with more frequently.

Her words suggested that she had grown quite close to them.

"Was it really just a chance meeting, or were they deliberately approaching her?" Lu Qing wondered.

Immediately, he focused his Divine Soul and summoned a connection.

"Wuxing!"

Far away, the Five Elements Winged Serpent, which was nestled in Xiao Yan’s hood, suddenly woke up.

Its eyes gleamed with joy. "Master, is that you?"

"It's me. Where are you, Xiao Yan, and Xiao Li now?" Lu Qing asked in his mind.

Wuxing was a Spirit Beast enslaved by his Soul Imprint. With Lu Qing's current cultivation, as long as he remained within this world, he could communicate with it at any time.

This was also why he felt at ease letting Xiao Yan travel.

Not only did she have Wuxing and Xiao Li, two powerful Spirit Beasts, protecting her, but if anything went wrong, Wuxing could summon him through the Soul Imprint.

"Master, we are currently in a small state in the northern border called Linzhou," Wuxing replied.

Over the past decade, the Five Elements Winged Serpent had finally learned how to speak the human tongue, allowing for smooth communication with Lu Qing.

"I just came out of seclusion today and saw Xiao Yan's messages. She mentioned that she has been traveling with a few companions lately. Who are they? Are they trustworthy?"

"Yes, Master," Wuxing responded after thinking for a moment. "The young mistress has indeed been traveling with a group of young cultivators.

They seem to come from different sects, and their cultivation is quite decent, all at least at the Mid Precelestial Realm.

As for their character, neither I nor Xiao Li have noticed anything suspicious about them yet."

Hearing this, Lu Qing relaxed a little.

Wuxing might be mistaken, but he trusted Xiao Li absolutely.

Xiao Li had a mystical ability to sense danger.

If those people had any malicious intent toward Xiao Yan, it would be difficult to escape its perception.

Nonetheless, human hearts were unpredictable, so Lu Qing still instructed Wuxing.

"No matter what, stay alert and protect Xiao Yan well."

"Understood, Master. Xiao Li and I always stay close to the young mistress, and we have never revealed our full strength.

Even the young mistress has only ever displayed the power of the Precelestial Realm.

Those people have no idea of our true abilities," Wuxing assured him.

"Good. Keep it that way. I'll come find you all once I finish my current tasks.

Also, do not tell Xiao Yan that I contacted you."

Upon learning that Xiao Yan had not revealed her true strength either, Lu Qing felt completely reassured.

He knew that his concerns were somewhat excessive.

Over the past ten years, the little girl had advanced swiftly in her cultivation.

She was now a powerful cultivator at the Peak Foundation Establishment Realm.

Even in the entire cultivation world, she was considered a true expert.

Moreover, she carried many treasures he had given her, and she had Xiao Li and Wuxing by her side.

Even a Golden Core Realm cultivator would struggle to harm them in a short time. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

After severing the Divine Sense Transmission with Wuxing, Lu Qing continued browsing through the Communication Talisman.

Suddenly, he froze for a moment, then smiled in delight.

"The Ancient Dragon Tortoise... has finally changed its mind?"

Over the years, Lu Qing had communicated with the Ancient Dragon Tortoise a few times.

During their interactions, he had expressed his desire to exchange for some of its bloodline essence.

At first, the Ancient Dragon Tortoise had flatly refused.

But later, after hearing Lu Qing's offered terms, it hesitated.

Now, it seemed that it had finally made up its mind.

"Perfect timing. The Spiritual Essence within the Sacred Mountain Cave Abode is no longer very effective for me.

I can head to the Eastern Sea to see if there are any treasures that could aid my cultivation."

Lu Qing made up his mind and was about to leave for the Eastern Sea when a voice came from outside.

"Daoist Lu, have you come out of seclusion?"

Lu Qing recognized the voice—it was the First Holy Lord. He immediately stepped out of his cave abode.

"Holy Lord, it has been a long time."

"As expected. We sensed your aura earlier and guessed that you had emerged from seclusion."

Outside the cave abode, all Three Holy Lords were present. The First Holy Lord smiled.

"I did not restrain my aura well, I must have disturbed the three of you," Lu Qing apologized.

"Daoist Lu, no need for such words," the First Holy Lord waved his hand. "But if even you failed to completely restrain your aura, then your breakthrough this time must have been significant."

"Just a minor breakthrough, nothing worth mentioning," Lu Qing replied with a smile.

"Daoist Lu is too modest," the three Holy Lords thought to themselves.

As always, Lu Qing's cultivation realm remained an enigma to them.

Yet, he continued to break through at a pace that was simply unimaginable.

"By the way, we came to deliver this record. It contains the spiritual items collected by Sacred Mountain’s disciples over the past year.

Since you have emerged from seclusion, we thought you might want to take a look," the Second Holy Lord said, handing over a book.

Lu Qing flipped through it.

Suddenly, his eyes gleamed with excitement as he reached the last page.
