I Can See Through All Things' Information Chapter 1475 - 879: Return to Gui Xu, the Old Azure Dragon’s Shock
Previously on I Can See Through All Things' Information...
An immense, boundless starry expanse unfolded before Lu Qing’s Divine Thought Avatar, which hovered serenely in the void.
A colossal band of light, a luminous galaxy composed of innumerable stars, rotated slowly, casting a faint, ethereal glow.
Within this celestial river, the star paths were remarkably intricate, as though an unseen force guided each celestial body along a predetermined orbit, subtly forming a formation of unimaginable scale.
This was none other than the Star River Formation, meticulously established by Gui Xu Taoist in ages past.
It served as a Supreme Array, a formidable guardian for the Returning Ruins Secret Realm.
This formation represented Gui Xu Taoist’s life’s work, utilizing three hundred and sixty-five main stars as its core, augmented by 129,600 auxiliary stars, a count that mirrored the celestial bodies within the Zhou Tian circulation.
Upon activation, the array could harness the Star Power from the Zhou Tian celestial bodies, manifesting an impenetrable defensive barrier.
Protected by this array, even an immortal undergoing Transformation would find breaching the Returning Ruins Secret Realm an arduous, if not impossible, task.
Gazing upon this magnificent formation, Lu Qing felt a surge of emotion.
It had not been an excessively long period since he had departed from the Returning Ruins Secret Realm—less than a century, in fact.
For cultivators, such a duration was but a fleeting blink, insufficient even for a single prolonged period of secluded cultivation.
Ancient beings, who had endured tens of thousands of years, might consider such a time frame merely a brief slumber.
Yet, standing here now, he sensed the profound weight of time and experience.
In under a hundred years, he had journeyed through an astonishing spectrum of events.
From the vastness of the Heavenly Origin Great World to the perilous Chaotic Star Sea, from the trials of the Six Tribulations of Primordial Spirit to the attainment of the Unity Realm Stage, from being relentlessly pursued by the Black and White Temple to mounting a fierce counterattack that vanquished six formidable Unity Realm Elders, and from delving into the desolate Dark Abyss to witnessing the preserved form of a powerhouse at the Mysterious Transformation level…
These few decades had been far more exhilarating and significant than the several hundred years that preceded them.
"I wonder what expressions Elder Azure Dragon and the others will wear when they behold me now," Lu Qing mused.
A hint of playful mischief flickered across Lu Qing’s lips as he smiled.
When he had originally left the Returning Ruins Secret Realm, his cultivation was merely at the Six Tribulations of Primordial Spirit stage.
Despite the high expectations held by Elder Azure Dragon and the other venerable figures, they likely never envisioned his cultivation progressing at such a breakneck pace.
To have entered the Unity Realm Stage within mere decades was truly extraordinary.
Truth be told, even Lu Qing himself hadn’t foreseen such rapid advancement.
He could only imagine the sheer astonishment that Elder Azure Dragon and his peers must be experiencing.
Lu Qing refocused his attention, his gaze returning to the imposing Star River Formation before him.
During his initial encounter with this array, his cultivation was rudimentary. While he possessed a nascent understanding of formations, this grand structure remained an enigma, its profound depths eluding his comprehension.
At that time, he felt akin to a mortal standing at the base of a colossal mountain, awestruck by its majesty but unable to grasp its true essence.
Now, having reached the Unity Realm, his perspective and comprehension had transformed immeasurably.
As he observed the formation once more, he began to perceive the subtle workings of its mysteries.
The celestial patterns were not arbitrary; they meticulously mirrored the fundamental laws governing the Heavenly Dao.
Each star’s position and the subtle pulsing of its light resonated with specific principles of the universe.
The three hundred and sixty-five primary stars aligned perfectly with the degrees of the Zhou Tian circulation, while the 129,600 subsidiary stars corresponded to the very essence of heaven and earth.
These elements intertwined seamlessly, creating a unified and complex system through their mutual resonance.
The rhythmic flickering of light was far more than a mere fluctuation in brightness.
Each pulse represented a single breath, an exhalation and inhalation of the formation itself.
It was in the process of drawing Spiritual Energy from the starry expanse and the boundless void, sustaining its perpetual operation.
The most intensely luminous points signified crucial nodes within the array, focal points where immense power converged.
The application of spatial folding techniques was exceptionally ingenious.
Gui Xu Taoist had expertly folded and compressed countless layers of space, meticulously embedding them within the formation. This created the illusion of a thin, superficial layer, while concealing an infinite expanse within.
Trespassers who dared to intrude would likely find themselves ensnared in these compressed spatial dimensions, forever lost.
Moreover, the formation harbored perilous spatial storms, which would erupt without warning.
A single encounter with such a tempest could easily result in the annihilation of even a powerful cultivator at the Unity Realm Stage.Protected by this Star River Formation, no one has dared to forcefully breach the Returning Ruins Secret Realm for ages untold. Lu Qing's observation only deepened his awe. The proficiency of Gui Xu Taoist in the Dao of Arrays was truly on an unfathomable plane. This Star River Formation was undoubtedly the pinnacle of his life's devotion, a true magnum opus of his mastery over the Dao of Arrays. Upon receiving the inheritance within the Returning Ruins Secret Realm, Lu Qing had once utilized his Superpower to download the entirety of Gui Xu Taoist’s array knowledge. This vast and profound legacy encompassed foundational array principles, formation techniques, critical methods for dismantling formations, and the very evolution of arrays, among other things. Although his current cultivation level limited him to understanding only the Primordial Spirit tier of array inheritance, leaving the Unity Realm Stage tier yet to be comprehended. The systematic knowledge of arrays, combined with the evolution of his own cultivation realm, still granted him insight into segments of the Star River Formation. "Perhaps, this time, I might manage to enter without needing the Identity Jade?" Such a notion sparked within Lu Qing’s consciousness. He refrained from immediate action, instead choosing to stand silently outside the formation, absorbing its intricacies. Despite currently being a mere Divine Thought Avatar, incapable of wielding Superpower, his cultivated realm and level of comprehension mirrored that of his main body precisely. The array inheritances he had previously grasped resurfaced within his mind, aligning with the magnificent formation before him. Time flowed by, undisturbed.
