I Can See Through All Things' Information Chapter 1484 - 882: Gui Xu Divine Thought, Part 2

"If you are curious about his current location, bring him to this place."

It paused for a moment, looking towards Lu Qing with an apologetic expression in its gaze.

"Ah Qing, while your innate talent is truly exceptional, you had not yet reached the Harmonization realm when you departed previously. Therefore, you were not brought here. I hope you can understand."

Lu Qing responded with a shake of his head, "Senior, you are too kind. Since the Gui Xu Taoist made these arrangements, he undoubtedly had his reasons. At that time, I was indeed not worthy."

The Old Cyan Dragon offered a nod in agreement, saying nothing further.

Turning its body, it faced the imposing statue and slowly raised one of its forelimbs.

A mystical spell was released from its claw, transforming into a streak of light that swiftly merged into the statue.

Instantly, a glow emanated from the statue.

The light, initially faint, intensified rapidly, expanding outwards and bathing the entire grand hall in illumination within moments.

Intricate runes surfaced across the statue's form, revolving slowly around it and coalescing into a complex, profound pattern.

With bated breath and eyes filled with earnest expectation, the Old Cyan Dragon, the Black Bull, and Ming Feng all fixed their gazes upon the statue.

They were unsure of what their esteemed master had secreted away within the stone effigy.

For over three hundred millennia, they had never dared to activate the statue, as no suitable candidate had ever presented themselves.

Only now, on this momentous day, had such a person appeared, fueling their intense curiosity about the secrets their master had left behind.

The luminescence grew progressively more brilliant and dazzling.

Then, a partially translucent figure began to materialize slowly from the statue's core.

The figure bore an exact resemblance to the statue itself – the same middle-aged scholar, with his slender features and piercingly deep gaze.

However, he was no longer a corporeal being but an ethereal shadow, hovering serenely before the statue.

This was the Gui Xu Taoist.

To be more precise, it was a residual wisp of Divine Thought deliberately left behind by the Gui Xu Taoist in ages past.

Upon witnessing the spectral figure, the Old Cyan Dragon trembled uncontrollably, tears welling up in its eyes.

"Master!"

The Black Bull and Ming Feng cried out in unison, their voices filled with elation.

Ming Feng, overcome with emotion, exhaled sharply, causing layers of frost to form in the surrounding air.

The Gui Xu Taoist's Divine Thought opened its eyes, its gaze slowly traversing the grand hall.

Upon acknowledging the Old Cyan Dragon and the others, a gentle smile graced its lips.

That smile was precisely as it had been in days of yore.

"Old Cyan Dragon, Black Bull, Little Feng," it called out softly, its voice seeming ethereal and distant, as if originating from a different era. "It has been a long time."

The Old Cyan Dragon, tears flowing freely, spoke, "Master, you... you have finally reappeared. You have been absent for over three hundred thousand years. We... we have missed you terribly."

The Gui Xu Taoist paused briefly.

"Has it truly been over three hundred thousand years..."

It lowered its gaze to its own hands, then surveyed the hall, a fleeting look of confusion crossing its features.

After a moment, a sigh escaped its lips.

"Three hundred thousand years... I never imagined so much time would pass."

It then turned its gaze back to the Old Cyan Dragon and the others, its eyes conveying a profound sense of apology.

"All these years, you must have endured immense hardship and injustice within this secret realm."

These words brought tears to the eyes of the Old Cyan Dragon and its companions.

The Old Cyan Dragon valiantly suppressed its tears, shaking its head, "Master, your words are too harsh. It is our sacred duty to guard this secret realm and your legacy.

It is simply... it is simply that we have been consumed by worry for you all this time, never knowing your whereabouts or if you were well..."

The Gui Xu Taoist remained silent for a short period before beginning to speak.

"Old Cyan Dragon, I understand you have countless questions.

However, this wisp of Divine Thought is but a fragment, sealed within the statue, and incapable of perceiving external events.

I possess no knowledge of what my main consciousness has experienced through the ages, nor do I know its current location."

It continued after a brief pause, "Moreover, this fragment of Divine Thought holds no inherent power; it is merely a lingering trace of thought. I am unable to contact the main consciousness or ascertain its present condition."

Upon hearing this, a flicker of disappointment crossed the Old Cyan Dragon's eyes.

Yet, clinging to a sliver of hope, it inquired, "Then... then does Master know if the main consciousness is still alive?"

The Gui Xu Taoist offered a gentle smile, radiating warmth and kindness.

"Rest assured, as long as this wisp of Divine Thought remains intact, it signifies that the main consciousness is, at the very least, still alive.

I originate from the same source as him; should he have perished, this fragment of thought would naturally dissipate.

My continued existence serves as proof that he endures."

Hearing this affirmation, the Old Cyan Dragon and the others finally exhaled a collective sigh of relief, their hearts finding a measure of peace.

Being alive was sufficient.

As long as life persisted, hope remained.

After a period of quiet contemplation, as their emotions began to stabilize, the Gui Xu Taoist inquired, "Old Cyan Dragon, for what purpose have you awakened me?"

The Old Cyan Dragon moved forward with haste, offering its deepest respect, "Master, before you departed, you once imparted a prophecy.

This implies that should an exceptional successor manage to clear your trial in the future, becoming your disciple, and advance their cultivation to the Unity Realm Stage.

And if they ever inquire about your whereabouts, they would be directed here.

Now, such an individual has finally emerged."

It then turned, its finger indicating Lu Qing.

"It is him, Lu Qing."

Gui Xu Taoist’s gaze settled upon Lu Qing.

To be honest, he had already detected Lu Qing some time ago.

From the moment the young man appeared, he felt his presence standing behind Old Cyan Dragon.

He had been engaged in conversation with Old Cyan Dragon and the others, an action that effectively hindered any closer examination.

At this very moment, as his attention shifted to Lu Qing, he was initially taken aback, but then a rare spark illuminated his eyes.

Possessing the insight of a Transformation Immortal, even a mere residual Divine Thought could reveal a multitude of truths.

With a single glance, he ascertained that this young man was not the primary body but rather a Divine Thought Avatar.

A Divine Thought Avatar is not inherently extraordinary; it can be cultivated after achieving Harmonization.

What truly astonished him was the subtle aura emanating from Lu Qing’s avatar.

It was the aura of the Great Dao.

And not merely one Dao.

He could discern that within this Divine Thought Avatar resided the echoes of multiple Daos.

These echoes intertwined, forming an incredibly mystical aura that immediately distinguished it as exceptional.

The Path of the Five Elements, the Sword Dao, the Dao of Power... even the Grand Dao of Space!

Each echo was of unparalleled purity and profound depth.

They wove together, enhancing one another without any sign of conflict, instead creating a difficult-to-articulate sense of harmony.

Gui Xu Taoist’s eyes widened subtly.

He turned to Old Cyan Dragon, his voice laced with disbelief.

"Old Cyan Dragon, this youth... how long has it been since he achieved Harmonization? How can he possess so many Dao ramifications?"

What was even more significant was the presence of the Grand Dao of Space's aura about Lu Qing!

Old Cyan Dragon had anticipated the master’s question; taking a deep breath to regain his composure, he then stated solemnly.

"Master, Lu Qing... he did not master multiple Daos after achieving Harmonization; he integrated nine Daos simultaneously with his Divine Thought during the breakthrough to Harmonization."

Upon hearing this revelation, Gui Xu Taoist could no longer maintain his calm demeanor.

His ethereal eyes suddenly widened.

"What?!"

He fixed an intense gaze upon Lu Qing, as if attempting to penetrate his very being.

Integrating nine Daos simultaneously with Divine Thought during Harmonization?

How could such a feat be possible?

He had lived for countless years, witnessed innumerable astonishing talents, and heard countless incredible legends.

Yet, he had never encountered, nor even heard of, anyone capable of accomplishing such a thing.

The true challenge of Harmonization lies in the fusion of Divine Thought and the Dao.

TheMight of a single Dao is sufficient to place immense strain on a cultivator's Primordial Spirit.

Attempting to integrate two Daos simultaneously amplifies that pressure exponentially, making it nearly unbearable.

Even he, in his prime, had failed to achieve a breakthrough by integrating two Daos concurrently with his Divine Thought.

As for attempting more than two, that was simply an impossibility.

Any cultivator who dared to try integrating more than two Daos at once would inevitably meet their demise, their body exploding, and their very being obliterated.

This was an inviolable law of the Cultivation World, unbroken across countless eras.

Yet, here was Old Cyan Dragon telling him that this young man had shattered that very rule.

Achieving Harmonization by integrating nine Daos simultaneously!

How could Gui Xu Taoist not be utterly flabbergasted, his heart and spirit profoundly shaken?

Had he not personally sensed the potent authenticity of multiple Dao ramifications within Lu Qing, he might have suspected Old Cyan Dragon of fabricating tales.
