I Can See Through All Things' Information Chapter 1272 - 776: Imparting Sword Dao to Master, Cultivation Technique Exchange_2

The master's aptitude for cultivation remains impressively powerful as always.

A mere look sufficed to plunge him into a profound epiphany.

Lu Qing refrained from interrupting his master's deep thought, simply keeping the Sword Qi Small World running silently.

With his level of strength, this drain was utterly insignificant; sustaining it nonstop wouldn't strain him in the least.

In this manner, the mentor and apprentice stayed immersed.

Roughly an hour passed before the elder doctor gradually emerged from his enlightening trance.

"Ah Qing, that's enough—dissolve the Sword Qi Small World," the elder doctor instructed.

"Master, are you done with your reflection?"

Lu Qing shifted his thoughts lightly, causing the Sword Qi Small World to fade away without a sound.

"Indeed, I've grasped the utmost of what I can at this stage; pushing beyond would surpass my current realm's boundaries."

The elder doctor massaged his forehead; clearly, the session had depleted a fair amount of his mental energy.

Still, the elder doctor's spirits soared with delight.

By sensing the enigmatic Sword Intent that Lu Qing had unleashed, he seized valuable insights, markedly advancing his Sword Dao Domain.

From this brief burst of enlightenment alone, though he lingered at Golden Core Seventh Transition, his route to the Primordial Spirit Realm now seemed assured.

He even glimpsed a personal grasp of the Primordial Spirit Realm itself.

"Master truly possesses remarkable perception," Lu Qing commended.

"Don't mock your elder," the elder doctor chuckled in mock rebuke.

The pair bantered lightly for a bit until Lu Qing's face grew a touch more solemn.

"Master, I'll be setting off toward the stars once more in just a few days; would you care to join me on this trip?"

"Toward the stars?"

The elder doctor mulled it over upon hearing those words.

Lu Qing's plan to depart the homeworld again didn't catch him off guard; his disciple had brought it up during last night's meal.

He realized full well that the homeworld's cultivation conditions no longer met his disciple's advancing demands.

Not just Lu Qing—even for himself, after reaching Golden Core Seventh Transition, the spiritual energy felt insufficient, hampering his progress.

For a Primordial Spirit Realm expert like Lu Qing, it was even more inadequate.

Therefore, to propel his cultivation onward, Lu Qing had no choice but to venture beyond the homeworld into the cosmos.

Only the immense and magnificent Great Worlds among the stars could prevent his growth from halting.

Yet, when Lu Qing extended the invitation to join him in the stars, the elder doctor wavered.

After some thought, he ultimately declined with a shake of his head, "I think not. My cultivation still holds potential for advancement; fresh from understanding the core of your Sword Dao, I need time to absorb these revelations, so retreating in seclusion suits me better than journeying alongside you."

"Master, aren't you curious about the marvels of distant worlds in the stars?"

"Naturally I am," the elder doctor replied, grinning.

As a dedicated cultivator, who wouldn't yearn for the countless wondrous realms out there?

"But the time isn't right yet; once my cultivation advances more and I ascend to the Primordial Spirit Realm, I'll think about venturing into the stars. Didn't you mention, Ah Qing, that only Primordial Spirit Realm experts can truly navigate the cosmos?"

"It looks like Master has decided firmly."

Lu Qing caught his master's meaning right away from that.

His master aimed to achieve a breakthrough to the Primordial Spirit Realm prior to embarking on stellar explorations.

At that point, he chose to drop any further coaxing.

"Besides, as you're leaving, bring Little Yan along. She's got solid talent, but her Dao Heart requires more tempering; a journey like this will help her gain experience and expand her horizons," the elder doctor suggested.

"Your disciple planned the same," Lu Qing agreed with a nod.

"With your arrangements in place, I feel at ease. When exactly do you plan to depart?"

"In a few days; this voyage might stretch on for quite a while, so I'll linger at home and recharge first."

"Wise choice; since you're home so seldom, make sure to check on the village elders too—otherwise, on your next return, they might be gone."

Lu Qing went quiet.

He grasped the implication behind his master's words.

Truth be told, since coming back this time, he'd already noticed how many from the older generation in the village had passed on.

The homeworld's spiritual energy resurgence had persisted for more than a hundred years now.

Most of the villagers he once knew simply didn't possess the knack for cultivation.

Though the village's enriched spiritual energy and life force had granted them extended years.

Yet mortals' lives have their bounds; absent a breakthrough to the Innate Realm, exceeding one hundred fifty years proves challenging.

Thus, only a handful endure to this day.

Lu Qing couldn't predict when his next homecoming might occur.

At his present stage, a single seclusion might span decades.

By the following visit, probably none of the familiar villagers would still be around.

After a brief pause, Lu Qing gave a subtle nod, "I get it, Master."

In the ensuing days, Lu Qing's routine turned even more relaxed.

The homeworld's spiritual energy offered no boost to his cultivation anymore.

So, by day, he guided Little Yan and the rest in their practice and aided the village elders with their well-being.

By night, his Primordial Spirit detached from his form, diving into the Origin Space to ponder the profound workings of the Daoic essence tied to the World Origin.

Naturally, he made time to meet certain longtime contacts.

Figures such as the various Saint Masters from the Holy Mountain, Zhi Rui from Tianji Building, and the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master—all enjoyed his personal outreach.

Everyone welcomed Lu Qing's appearances with great joy.

The mentor-apprentice duo at Tianji Building, in particular, felt profoundly privileged.

After all, Lu Qing's standing had soared to unparalleled heights, making him the supreme figure across the world.

For such an eminent being to cherish old ties and seek them out was nothing short of astonishing to Tianji Building's pair.

"Tower Master Senior, I've come to ask a favor,"

Within the Tianji Building, Lu Qing addressed the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master with courtesy.

"You honor me too much; it's no trouble at all, esteemed one—what service can we provide?" the Tower Master responded swiftly, "What exactly do you require from us?"

He no longer presumed to call Lu Qing a young friend like in former times.

"I'd like to examine your sect's divination cultivation methods, if it's no imposition. Naturally, I'll provide fitting treasures as compensation," Lu Qing explained his aim.

"Is that all? It's our privilege for Tianji Building's modest arts to be reviewed by someone of your stature; we only fear they might not interest you."

At once, the Tower Master directed Zhi Rui to fetch every cultivation technique housed in the Tianji Building.

"Esteemed one, every method we've gathered is presented here; which would you prefer to inspect?"

The Tower Master, holding a stack of Jade Scrolls and volumes, asked with deference.

"All of them, if possible."

"Feel free to browse at your leisure; we'll stand by outside—summon us anytime you need."

With that, the Tower Master and Zhi Rui withdrew, granting Lu Qing solitude in the serene chamber.

Unfazed, Lu Qing reached for the Jade Scrolls in front of him and started perusing them.

The bulk of Tianji Building's gathered techniques consisted of Postnatal and Innate approaches; even Foundation Establishment ones were scarce.

From Lu Qing's lofty realm, a quick scan allowed him to master their secrets entirely.

He browsed at speed, and before long, a faint grin appeared on his face.

As expected, Tianji Building possessed precisely what he sought.

Having gone through every Jade Scroll and tome, he rose and stepped out of the chamber.

The waiting Tower Master hurried forward with a bow, "Esteemed one."

"I've located what I was after; my thanks, Senior. As a gesture of appreciation, here are several techniques. This junior has other duties, so I'll bid farewell now."

Lu Qing passed a handful of Jade Scrolls to the Tower Master, then glided away.

All that remained was the stunned mentor-apprentice duo exchanging bewildered glances.

"Master, any idea what from our Tianji Building's collection could draw Mr. Lu Qing's interest?"

Moments later, Zhi Rui—who had attained the Golden Core Realm—voiced her curiosity.

"No clue on my end either," the Tower Master admitted, just as baffled.

In Tianji Building, the highest-tier techniques topped out at Golden Core Realm cultivation.

That particular one came from the Holy Mountain, reportedly inherited from Lu Qing himself.

The rest peaked at Foundation Establishment at best, and many were fragmentary.

By all reason, such methods shouldn't pique a Primordial Spirit Realm powerhouse like Lu Qing.

Perhaps hidden depths in their amassed techniques eluded even them?

The Tower Master ruminated briefly but drew no conclusions, turning instead to the newly received Jade Scrolls from Lu Qing.

As he delved into their contents with his mind and spirit, astonishment struck him unbidden.

"Master, what's wrong?"

"What Mr. Lu Qing gifted us are all Primordial Spirit level techniques,"

The Tower Master stared toward where Lu Qing had vanished, whispering to himself.
