I Can See Through All Things' Information Chapter 1163 - 720: Yan’s Ambition, The Storm Is Brewing

"Strange fluctuations?"
Lu Qing was momentarily stunned by his master's revelation. However, as the realization dawned on him, he found the situation difficult to believe.
Could it be that Master...
Instead of replying immediately, he asked, "Master, what exactly was the nature of the fluctuations you felt?"
"It is hard to put into words," the elder doctor replied after a moment of reflection.
"When you returned previously, didn't you provide me with several secret Cultivation techniques?
Throughout this past year, I have been organizing and pondering those methods, weaving them into my own path of Cultivation.
Just a few days ago, I gained some new insights, causing my domain to undergo a transformation.
It was then that I realized that while in the state of Unity of Heaven and Man, I could faintly perceive a mysterious resonance within the world.
Initially, I dismissed it as a mere trick of the mind.
But lately, I can feel that fluctuation incessantly, and it is growing more distinct.
I feared that something had gone wrong with my Cultivation, which is why I sought your counsel."
Lu Qing was genuinely shocked. His Master had actually detected the ripples coming from the Returning Ruins Secret Realm.
Under normal circumstances, such disturbances should only be perceptible to those who have reached the Primordial Spirit Realm.
It appeared that this year of Cultivation had allowed Master to achieve yet another breakthrough, making his connection to the Unity of Heaven and Man even more profound.
Seeing the anxiety etched on the elder's face, Lu Qing took a moment to compose himself before speaking. "I did not expect you to sense those fluctuations as well, Master."
The elder doctor’s eyes brightened instantly. "So, Ah Qing, you..."
"Indeed, those fluctuations are real. There is nothing wrong with your Cultivation," Lu Qing confirmed with a nod.
"However, by all rights, this resonance should only be felt by cultivators at or above the Primordial Spirit Realm, which is why I didn't mention it before."
"I am surprised you sensed it, Master. It seems your Cultivation has reached a truly remarkable level over this past year."
Lu Qing's expression was filled with genuine respect.
Despite having access to far fewer Cultivation resources than Lu Qing, his Master’s progress had been anything but slow.
He was essentially cultivating at the absolute limit allowed by the recovery of their world.
It was safe to say that in this entire world, excluding Lu Qing himself, Master was likely the strongest person alive, possessing an extraordinary spiritual sense.
He could even vaguely detect grand fluctuations that were supposed to be the exclusive domain of the Primordial Spirit Realm.
One must remember that Master was currently only at the peak of the Golden Core Sixth Turn, not yet having transitioned to the Seventh.
"Don't overpraise me; my meager skills are nothing compared to yours. I only caught a glimpse of it while immersed in the Unity of Heaven and Man," the elder doctor said, offering a playful scolding before his curiosity took over. "Ah Qing, what exactly is that fluctuation? It feels as though it originates from beyond the heavens."
"I have looked into it. That fluctuation comes from a secret realm beyond the stars that is preparing to manifest. Its reach is incredibly vast, spanning across the neighboring celestial domains," Lu Qing explained openly, detailing the nature of the Returning Ruins Secret Realm to his master.
"A disturbance from a secret realm's emergence can actually cross multiple celestial domains?"
The elder doctor was visibly stunned by the news.
He had heard Lu Qing describe the scale of celestial domains before and knew that each one contained an unfathomably large expanse of the starry sky.
Yet, the mere arrival of a secret realm was sending tremors through several such domains.
He could hardly fathom the power required for a secret realm to produce such an effect.
Beside them, Little Yan and Han Lingshuang listened in silence, equally overwhelmed by the conversation.
"There is no need to dwell on it. While the coming secret realm is undoubtedly magnificent, it has no connection to us, so we shouldn't let it trouble us," Lu Qing said with a light smile.
"That is true. The appearance of such a place will surely draw the gaze of the entire world, and it really has nothing to do with us," the elder doctor agreed, nodding.
He knew instinctively that a fluctuation of this magnitude would have already alerted countless powerful factions.
By now, many formidable cultivators were likely watching that secret realm with greed.
For those without sufficient strength, any involvement would surely lead to ruin.
Since they had no intention of exploring it, it was best to treat it as irrelevant.
"I am relieved to know it wasn't a delusion. I was worried my path was flawed or that I was developing a heart demon," the elder doctor said, finally relaxing.
"Master, you are favored by the heavens and blessed with Merit Light; how could a heart demon ever take root?" Lu Qing joked. "Even if I were to suffer from one, you never would."
Lu Qing looked at his master.
That wondrous Merit Light was a priceless treasure, capable of repelling all manner of evil and possessing a miraculous ability to suppress heart demons and negative thoughts.
When Master had faced his Golden Core Tribulation, he had used up all his stored Merit Light.
However, in the decades since, he had never stopped performing good deeds and saving lives through medicine. Even during the chaos of the demon cultivators a few years ago, he had remained a guardian of Jiuli Village.
Consequently, the Merit Light surrounding him had replenished, becoming even more potent than it was before his tribulation.
"Don't make light of such things; no one ever admits to having a heart demon," the elder doctor replied with a stern look.
"Yes, your disciple understands," Lu Qing quickly promised.
The two spoke for a while longer before Lu Qing led Little Yan, Han Lingshuang, and Little Li back to their home.
"Brother, now that you've mastered that secret technique, what is next? Will you enter closed-door cultivation for another one?" Little Yan asked.
After a moment's thought, Lu Qing replied, "Let's take a break first. I will cook for you today. After a few days of rest, I will resume my Cultivation of the other techniques."
