I Can See Through All Things' Information Chapter 1265 - 773: Top-grade Spiritual Artifact
"Ah Qing!"
From his secluded retreat, Little Li dashed out and eagerly hurled himself into Lu Qing's arms.
"Impressive, your cultivation has made huge strides."
With a touch of approval, Lu Qing ruffled the young one's head.
Having spent years in isolation, Little Li's cultivation had leaped forward impressively, now hitting the Golden Core Eighth Turn. No one could deny his rapid progress in cultivation.
A subtle ripple of spatial power lingered around him too, indicating solid advancement in its mastery thanks to Elder Azure Dragon's tutelage.
"Yeah, Grandpa Azure Dragon showed me tons of stuff and handed over plenty of elixirs for me to swallow, letting me hit the eighth turn so fast."
While bragging, Little Li contentedly rubbed against Lu Qing's palm.
"My thanks, Elder, for training Little Li." Lu Qing offered a respectful bow to the Old Cyan Dragon.
"Politeness isn't necessary; Little Li is my disciple, after all—any true master would pour effort into guiding their student." Old Cyan Dragon let out a hearty laugh. "Plus, the kid's got remarkable talent and sharp comprehension, fueling his speedy growth."
The Old Cyan Dragon felt deep contentment toward Little Li.
This stemmed not only from the boy's charming words and endearing nature but also from his truly exceptional aptitude.
Through practicing the "Nine True Dragon Transformations," Little Li now boasted a True Dragon Bloodline richer than that of many Azure Dragon Clan geniuses from ancient times.
On top of that, he wielded innate space divine abilities, making him a natural darling of the Space Dao.
His grasp of Space Dao outshone even the Azure Dragon Clan's, bolstered by these built-in gifts.
One could say Little Li had fully absorbed the Azure Dragon Clan's hidden arts by this point.
All he needed was real-world experience; with time, he'd undoubtedly perfect them and spread their fame far and wide.
"Ah Qing, did Grandpa Azure Dragon mention we're heading out from here?" Little Li inquired.
"That's right, we've lingered in this place long enough. If we delay our return, Master and Little Yan could get anxious once more." Lu Qing gave an affirming nod.
Little Yan deserved special mention, since the sudden pull of the Void Flying Boat had dragged him into the Returning Ruins Secret Realm without any way to send word.
Should he vanish for too long, heaven knows what wild thoughts she might spin up.
With the secret realm's issues resolved, Lu Qing was eager to head back without delay.
"I miss Little Yan as well." Little Li murmured softly.
"Ah Qing, prior to our departure, there's a spot we'd like to show you." The Old Cyan Dragon then announced.
"Where exactly is the Elder intending to lead us?" Lu Qing felt a brief surprise.
With a sweep of his paw, the Old Cyan Dragon unleashed a thick wave of spatial power that wrapped around Lu Qing, Little Li, the Black Bull, and Ming Feng.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Qing found himself in an unfamiliar realm.
Before he could survey the area, a fierce shudder gripped the Void Flying Boat stored in his Qiankun One Qi Bag.
At the same moment, a summoning pull tugged at him from the front.
"What could this be..."
Lu Qing turned his gaze toward the source of the call.
There, he beheld a truly astonishing sight.
At the heart of this expansive space floated a majestic golden flying boat, stretched out horizontally.
It loomed enormous, resembling an entire mountain chain.
Compared to it, Lu Qing and his companions appeared minuscule, like mere specks of dust.
However, the golden flying boat looked badly damaged.
Its frame was riddled with scars, the back section mostly wrecked and fallen apart.
It seemed to have endured a savage clash, reducing it to this broken remnant.
Despite its near-total ruin, the golden flying boat radiated an aura beyond words.
Just by existing there, it dominated all eight directions, its essence the only force between Heaven and Earth, with even the laws of Heaven and Earth swirling in its orbit.
"This stands as one of the master's greatest Magical Treasures, the Immortal Flying Boat."
The Old Cyan Dragon's voice rang out as he stared at the golden flying boat, apparently drifting into fond memories.
The Black Bull and Ming Feng also fixed their eyes ahead, utterly mesmerized.
"Immortal Flying Boat, which implies..."
Lu Qing remembered the details shared by the Void Flying Boat and grasped why it had grown so excited upon arrival.
"Exactly, the Immortal Flying Boat serves as the parent vessel to the Void Flying Boat in your possession; it was once a supreme Dao Artifact of unmatched might.
Sadly, in a ferocious war hundreds of thousands of years back, this mighty Dao Artifact took grievous wounds, teetering on the brink of destruction.
Its Artifact Spirit almost faded entirely, clinging to just a faint wisp of lingering spirit.
Today, its strength amounts to barely a sliver of its past glory, rendering it all but unusable."
The Old Cyan Dragon let out a sorrowful sigh.
Lu Qing eyed the wrecked body of the Immortal Flying Boat, struggling to fathom what monumental conflict could have ravaged such a formidable Dao Artifact to this degree.
"Ah Qing, bring forth the Void Flying Boat under your command."
After voicing his reminiscences, the Old Cyan Dragon instructed.
Lu Qing complied, drawing out the Void Flying Boat that had been buzzing with unrest for a while.
The instant it emerged, the Void Flying Boat shot ahead, blending seamlessly into the Immortal Flying Boat.
Right then, a soft golden glow bloomed from the Immortal Flying Boat.
"Elder Azure Dragon, what's happening here..."
Though confused, Lu Qing could tell he still held command over the Void Flying Boat.
"Relax, there's nothing to fear." The Old Cyan Dragon grinned reassuringly. "This change benefits you.
Even in its shattered form, with power dwindled to a shadow of before, the Immortal Flying Boat preserves a hint of its original prowess."
