I Can See Through All Things' Information Chapter 1293 - 790:

"I'm curious just how much stronger my brother's strength will become once he overcomes this Primordial Spirit Tribulation."

Little Yan thought back to the moment when Lu Qing cleaved Zhou Tian City apart with one strike of his sword.

At that time, her brother had already displayed such overwhelming might, and with two Primordial Spirit Tribulations now behind him, his abilities were bound to surge forward dramatically.

Reflecting on her own journey, over these years in closed-door cultivation, while her advancements hadn't matched her brother's astonishing pace,

bathed in the incredibly dense spiritual essence, she had still achieved a small advancement, advancing to the Golden Core Eighth Turn stage.

The path to Golden Core Ninth Turn no longer seemed so distant.

Little Yan at last comprehended the reason Little Li and the Five Elements, despite being spiritual beasts, progressed in cultivation quicker than she did as a member of the Human Race.

Truly, the Heavenly Origin Great World offered an unparalleled cultivation setting, with spiritual energy overflowing in abundance.

She sensed that her cultivation base rose steadily each day, even without deliberate practice, simply through the natural flow of her cultivation method.

Bang!

With yet another dull rumble, fresh transformations unfolded around Lu Qing.

All the elements encircling him—be it deathly Qi, Tribulation Qi, or the thunderous glow of the Laws—formed a swirling maelstrom that he fully drew into himself.

Once tranquility settled in, the immense heavenly pressure looming over Lu Qing shifted abruptly, unleashing a vast torrent of energy from the boundless emptiness that engulfed him entirely.

In the same vein, Lu Qing embraced it all, channeling his cultivation technique to take it in completely, converting it into the bedrock of his strength and reserves.

"Ah Qing has triumphed over the tribulation successfully."

Witnessing this well-known sight, Little Li announced right away.

With the final wisp of unusual energy absorbed and purified, Lu Qing gradually lifted his eyelids.

At once, Little Yan and the rest trembled involuntarily.

It seemed Lu Qing's gaze held the infinite secrets of the cosmos, drawing irresistibly on their minds and souls.

Luckily, this effect lasted only an instant before Lu Qing suppressed it swiftly, allowing everyone to snap back to full awareness.

Unaware of the odd reaction from Little Yan and the others, Lu Qing, fresh from his tribulation victory, directed his mind and soul toward the shifts happening inside him.

In particular, toward the Yin Yang Five Element Gourd, his Lifebound Magical Treasure.

Entering the Eight Tribulations realm naturally boosted his strength to a remarkable degree.

Yet, the alteration in the Yin Yang Five Element Gourd caught Lu Qing off guard the most.

Throughout these pair of Primordial Spirit Tribulations, the gourd had absorbed and refined yet another huge quantity of Tribulation Qi.

At present, deep inside it, a core emitting the essence of tribulation was forming, hinting that something was on the verge of breaking forth.

Lu Qing perceived that should this essence's creation fully mature, the Yin Yang Five Element Gourd would qualify to evolve into a high-grade Spirit Artifact.

"From the looks of it, by the time I face the Ninth Tribulation, the Yin Yang Five Element Gourd should be nearly set for its upgrade."

Sensing the presence inside the gourd, Lu Qing formed a clear notion.

He began to look forward eagerly.

Though both qualify as magical treasures, a Lifebound Magical Treasure stands worlds apart from one nurtured and wielded by conventional methods.

Linked directly to the cultivator's vital force, a Lifebound Magical Treasure unleashes might that vastly outstrips a standard magical treasure.

In the grasp of a mighty figure like Lu Qing, an upper-level Spiritual Artifact as a Lifebound Treasure could match even the finest top-grade Spiritual Artifacts.

More than raw strength, Lu Qing prized the gourd's future prospects even higher.

Drawing from the Immortal Palace's ancient artifact-forging lore, Lu Qing recognized elevating a Spiritual Artifact to Dao Artifact status as an immense challenge.

Far tougher than attaining Unity Realm.

Still, in the Yin Yang Five Element Gourd, he glimpsed a spark of that potential.

Should this Lifebound Treasure keep evolving, it might well grant him a Dao Artifact-tier Lifebound Treasure upon reaching Unity Realm.

Lu Qing burned with keen interest in Dao Artifacts.

Consider the Void Flying Boat: as merely one among the one hundred eight auxiliary vessels of the Immortal Flying Boat Dao Artifact, and still incomplete in restoration, its void-crossing prowess remains beyond the reach of Unity Realm powerhouses.

One can only fathom the might of a fully realized Dao Artifact.

To say nothing of a Lifebound Dao Artifact.

Lu Qing believed that nurturing the gourd's ongoing development would transform it into one of his deadliest hidden aces.

Apart from the gourd, the Divine Soul Little Man clutched the Divine Soul Talisman in its other hand, which had also seen major evolutions.

This practice, passed down from the Divine Talisman Sect of his origin world, had been greatly refined by Lu Qing long ago, reaching an advanced stage.

The intricate runes etched on the Divine Soul Talisman proved so elaborate that Primordial Spirit Realm Array Masters grew disoriented from a single look.

Now, the Divine Soul Talisman not only shielded the Forehead Acupoint Space but also wielded the formidable capacity to strike foes, silently destroying their Divine Souls.

That said, Lu Qing had yet to deploy it against any adversary, leaving its precise potency unknown to him.

Having thoroughly examined his enhancements in power, Lu Qing turned his focus back to the here and now with satisfaction.

Noticing Little Yan and Little Li gazing at him with keen anticipation, he couldn't resist a grin.

"What's up, why are you staring at me that way?"

"Ah Qing, that aura of yours earlier was terrifying, just like a real immortal!" Little Li blurted out first.

Little Yan and the Five Elements bobbed their heads in fervent agreement.

Moments ago, when Lu Qing unveiled his eyes, they had nearly surrendered their minds and souls.

"It's nothing so dramatic; right after the tribulation, I'm still infused with a remnant of heavenly aura, which unintentionally affected your minds and souls."

Hearing Lu Qing's words, everyone quickly comprehended the cause.

"Brother, having reached the Eight Tribulations realm, do you intend to keep secluding yourself to tackle the Nine Tribulations of Primordial Spirit all at once?" Little Yan inquired.

Lu Qing opened his mouth to reply, but a stir arose in his mind, prompting a slight furrow of his brow.

"Ah Qing, what's the matter?"

Spotting the shift in his demeanor, Little Li queried without delay.

"I've got a sudden intuition; allow me to run a divination."

Since acquiring the Path of Calculation from Tianji Building and merging it into the Ten Thousand Realms Inference Technique,

Lu Qing had attained deep expertise in the art of divination.

Frequently, insights into personal future occurrences would strike him.

In that instant, an abrupt foreboding welled up, indicating an event tied to him loomed near.

Yet the feeling lacked intensity, leaving him perplexed.

Without pause, Lu Qing formed an Illusion Realm Space, inside which myriad stars whirled into motion.

Guided by the intuition in his core, Lu Qing persisted in his deductions.

In time, an announcement affixed to a city barrier materialized within the Illusion Realm Space.

Once the announcement's details came into sharp focus, Lu Qing grasped the full picture.

"So that's their game, leveraging the lives of Five Treasure Taoist and Ye Qingzhu to force me out—they really see me as the type to cherish ties that much?"

Lu Qing's eyes grew icy as he stared at the announcement in the Illusion Realm Space.

The announcement declared that Five Treasure Taoist and Ye Qingzhu, accused of conspiring with Evil Demons and abandoned by the Human Race, would suffer dire punishment in a year's time, their Divine Souls completely eradicated to serve as a warning.

"These scum from the Holy Alliance are utterly vile and without honor, stooping to tactics like this!"

Little Li spat out the words, unable to contain her rage while eyeing the announcement.

"Brother, what's your intention here?"

Little Yan gazed at Lu Qing with concern.

She had also discerned how the so-called Holy Alliance aimed to bait her brother using his companions, compelling his presence.

Employing such tactics meant the foes had undoubtedly laid an ambush.

Should her brother actually show up, wouldn't that be walking straight into their snare?

Still, Little Yan knew her brother's temperament well; he probably wouldn't back down.

As expected, in response to Little Yan's query, Lu Qing let out a soft laugh.

"Of course I'll head there to face them; since they're so eager for an encounter, it'd be rude not to oblige."
