I Can See Through All Things' Information Chapter 1167 - 722: Pills for Advancement

"I have some matters to discuss with you, so I dropped by to see if you were in," Lu Qing said with a smile.

"You came specifically to see me?" Hu Zezhi felt a surge of joy in her heart. "In that case, please, come into my room."

"Very well," Lu Qing agreed with a nod. "By the way, Mrs. Wei and Senior Wei, you should join us as well. I happen to have something for you too."

"We should come along too?"

Wei Shanhai and the others were caught off guard by the request.

However, since Lu Qing had made the invitation, they naturally could not decline.

Soon, the entire group was gathered within Hu Zezhi’s small courtyard.

"Brother Lu, Senior Wei, everyone, please enjoy some tea."

Hu Zezhi served tea to the guests. Once everyone had finished their drinks, Lu Qing produced two jade bottles.

"Miss Hu, as I promised you previously, I have spent the last few days refining the medicine to purify the Golden Core.

The jade bottle on the left contains the elixir capable of cleansing the Golden Core.

The one on the right holds several elixirs designed to bolster your cultivation; you should make use of them."

Lu Qing passed both jade bottles over to Hu Zezhi.

Hu Zezhi stood there, dazed, as she stared at the two bottles.

When Lu Qing had mentioned giving her elixirs to cleanse her Golden Core before, she assumed it would be a long time before they were ready.

She never expected that he would refine them so quickly and deliver them in person.

Upon hearing this, Wei Zian and the others couldn't help but look on with envious expressions.

Only now did they realize that Lu Qing’s visit was specifically to bring Hu Zezhi these elixirs.

"Brother Lu, this is far too valuable. I can't possibly accept this; you ought to save them for Little Yan and the others."

Coming back to her senses, Hu Zezhi waved her hands in a frantic refusal.

She was well aware of how beneficial Lu Qing’s spiritual pills would be for her, yet her first instinct was to decline.

"Little Yan has already formed an Innate top-grade Golden Core, so this cleansing elixir wouldn't be of much use to her.

Furthermore, I have already prepared the necessary elixirs for her own cultivation. These were crafted specifically for you, so please, take them."

Lu Qing had heard from his master that during the years he and Little Yan were away, it was primarily Hu Zezhi and his Puppet Avatar who protected the village.

Because the Puppet Avatar required secrecy, the task of silently guarding the village had mostly fallen to Hu Zezhi.

Lu Qing was not the type to overlook such dedication.

This was the reason he had gone out of his way to bring her these specific elixirs.

"Then... Brother Lu, I shall shamelessly accept your gift."

After hearing Lu Qing’s explanation, Hu Zezhi hesitated a moment longer before finally taking the two jade bottles.

She understood that with Lu Qing’s immense skill, it was impossible for Little Yan to ever lack for elixirs.

Her previous refusal now felt somewhat silly in hindsight.

Seeing her accept the gift, Lu Qing gave a faint smile. "By the way, the elixir in the bottle meant for cleansing the Golden Core is called the Elixir of Pristine Purity. There is no need to rush to use it immediately.

Wait until your Golden Core reaches the perfection of the Third Transition. Taking it then will not only purify your Golden Core but also assist you in breaking through your current bottleneck.

As for the cultivation-enhancing elixirs, those can be consumed at any time.

Just be careful with the frequency; do not become overly dependent on the power of the medicine."

The cultivation pills Lu Qing gave to Hu Zezhi were not the Five Elements Harmonizing Pill. Instead, they were pills he had retrieved from a late-stage Golden Core Realm cultivator he had killed in the past.

The Five Elements Harmonizing Pill was a top-tier spiritual pill, but it was most effective for those practicing all Five Elements simultaneously, making it unsuitable for Hu Zezhi and the others.

"I understand. Thank you, Brother Lu."

Hu Zezhi happily tucked the two bottles of spiritual pills into her robes.

Lu Qing’s expression shifted slightly as he watched, but he said nothing. Instead, he pulled out another jade bottle and turned his gaze toward Mrs. Wei.

"Madam, I believe you are currently at the Internal Organ Realm?"

Mrs. Wei blinked in surprise before nodding with a look of slight embarrassment. "I am. However, my cultivation is mostly the result of consuming numerous supplements. It is merely superficial, as I have little true understanding of the path. Now that I am older and my Qi-Blood is fading, I can barely maintain the Initial stage of the Internal Organ Realm."

Mrs. Wei felt quite helpless regarding her situation.

It wasn't that she hadn't tried to cultivate diligently; after all, her husband, her son, and even her ancestors were successful practitioners of the Immortal Dao.

Living for several hundred years was a natural desire for her as well.

But cultivation required more than just effort; innate talent was crucial.

It was clear that Mrs. Wei simply did not possess that talent.

After struggling for a long time, she realized the path of the Immortal Dao was closed to her and had eventually given up in disappointment.

"Madam, I possess a spiritual medicine that can assist you in breaking through to the Innate Realm. However, once you use this medicine, your future potential will be entirely exhausted.

From that point on, you will only be able to reach the Innate Perfection Realm and will never be able to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm.

I must ask, are you willing to take such a medicine?"

Lu Qing’s tone was solemn as he spoke.

"Ah Qing, are you truly saying there is an elixir that can help me reach the Innate Realm?"

Mrs. Wei was stunned by the revelation.

The eyes of everyone else in the room widened in shock.

Wei Zian’s hands even began to shake. "Brother Lu, are you certain there is an elixir that can help my mother become an Innate?"

"There is. However, this elixir requires someone with a deep cultivation base to help refine the medicinal power within the body. Otherwise, taking it directly would be fatal, as the body would be unable to withstand the violent energy."

Lu Qing explained seriously.

"That sounds incredibly dangerous. Then, Brother Lu..."

Wei Zian was startled and began to speak, but Lu Qing nodded to reassure him.

"Do not worry. I will assist Madam in refining the medicine. But I must know, what is Madam’s choice?"

"I am more than willing!"

Regaining her composure, Mrs. Wei nodded repeatedly, her heart racing with excitement.

She knew that an Innate Realm expert could live for three hundred years.

She was currently approaching a hundred years of age and did not have many years left.

If she could reach the Innate Realm, she would gain another two hundred years of life—a temptation that was impossible to resist.

As for Lu Qing’s warning about never reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm, it didn't bother her at all.

She had no talent for cultivation to begin with. On her own, she couldn't even dream of the Innate Realm, let alone the far-off Foundation Establishment Realm.

"Since you are willing, Madam, shall we begin refining the elixir now?"

Lu Qing wasn't surprised by her decision.

He had only asked the question out of respect for her autonomy.

"Start right now?"

Mrs. Wei’s body gave a small tremor, a hint of nervousness creeping in.

"Yes, Madam. Rest assured that as long as I am here, nothing will go wrong."

There was a calming quality to Lu Qing’s voice that caused Mrs. Wei to relax visibly.

She smiled and asked, "In that case, I will rely on you, Ah Qing. What do I need to do?"

"You only need to swallow the elixir, Madam. Leave everything else to me."

Lu Qing nodded and gave the jade bottle a gentle shake. A golden elixir shot out from within.

Guided by Lu Qing’s control, the pill drifted through the air until it hovered directly in front of Mrs. Wei.

Without a moment's hesitation, Mrs. Wei took the pill and swallowed it whole.

As soon as she consumed it, Lu Qing’s mana surged out to envelop her.

At the same time, dozens of golden needles—magical treasures—appeared and floated behind him.

The medicinal power of the elixir soon began to take effect. Sweat broke out on Mrs. Wei’s forehead, and her brow furrowed in pain.

A burning heat began to radiate from her body.

At that exact moment, Lu Qing’s golden needles flew forward, precisely pricking various acupoints across her body.

Lu Qing used his own mana to guide and smooth out the rampaging medicinal energy.

With the combination of the acupuncture and Lu Qing’s external assistance, the pressure on Mrs. Wei vanished instantly.

Her body began to rapidly absorb the elixir's power.

The many blocked apertures within her were forced open by the medicinal surge, and her aura began to grow steadily stronger.

Wei Zian and the others watched the miraculous sight, hardly daring to breathe.

As she continued to absorb the energy, an hour passed. Mrs. Wei’s aura reached its peak, hitting the limit of the Inner Organs Perfection of the Grandmaster Realm.

Finally, she shattered those limits and crossed the threshold.

In the following instant, with a resonant sound of impact, the Rules of Heaven and Earth manifested.
