I Can See Through All Things' Information Chapter 1286 - 786: Extinguishing the Soul Lamp, Claiming the Treasure Vault

Pfft!
High above in the skies, once Lu Qing had seized the elder with white hair and a child's face, he extended no clemency.
Straightaway, he demolished the elder's mortal frame and sealed his Primordial Spirit, flinging it into the Illusion Realm Space for a deep soul-search probe.
During this whole ordeal, the guardian dharma treasures adorning the elder's form offered zero protection.
A subtle gleam from one such treasure flickered momentarily before getting obliterated alongside the body.
Facing Lu Qing's existing strength, typical spiritual artifacts crumbled like mere parchment before him.
Mid-grade spiritual devices could scarcely endure the brunt of his utmost blow.
Solely high-grade spirit artifacts possessed the resilience to weather his might.
Precisely as Lu Qing initiated the soul-search on the elder's Primordial Spirit.
An utter stillness descended upon Zhou Tian City underneath.
Only moments earlier, hordes of spectators had beheld the enigmatic figure donning the ghost face mask.
Felling the venerated Gongshu family ancestors sequentially, akin to butchering mere poultry.
Not one ancestor managed any substantial fightback from outset to conclusion.
In the finale, the supreme old patriarch of the Gongshu family got quelled by a lone palm, his body pulverized, and Primordial Spirit captured.
This breathtaking display promptly embedded profound dread into the depths of every observer's core.
Their stares fixed on Lu Qing resembled beholding a infernal deity.
Simultaneously, the crowd grasped that the Gongshu family's end had arrived.
Numerous Primordial Spirit ancestors plus the aged clan head all met their demise, leaving the Gongshu family's Primordial Spirit battle forces largely eradicated.
As a formidable lineage overseeing broad domains, the consequences were plain to all without further pondering.
Instantly, the craftier folks diverted their eyes, likely scheming in their heads.
Yet, owing to the fearsome ghost face masked presence lingering overhead, even harboring sly notions, nobody risked bold moves just then.
Lu Qing disregarded the turmoil stirring below.
As he performed the soul-search interrogation upon the elder's Primordial Spirit, he descended to seize the storage magical treasures off the fallen Gongshu family ancestors.
He lacked the chance to examine them before a sudden awareness hit.
"Hmm? Another Gongshu family ancestor at Primordial Spirit Eighth Tribulation roams the starry skies?"
The soul-search within the Illusion Realm Space had unveiled the elder's truths plainly.
Lu Qing affirmed via the recollections that the Gongshu family orchestrated the seizure of Five Treasure Taoist and Ye Qingzhu.
This ancient schemer served as the primary architect of the plot.
Furthermore, Lu Qing extracted assorted other memories.
Shockingly, the white-haired, child-faced elder ranked not as the Gongshu family's supreme powerhouse.
The Gongshu family harbored yet another ancestor at Eight Tribulations Perfection, who ventured into the starry skies centuries back pursuing a chance for ascension.
Whether that ancestor succeeded in breaking through during those years to attain a superior realm stayed unclear.
Nevertheless, his survival was assured.
The soul lamp venerated in the Gongshu family's ancestral hall continued to flicker steadily, unextinguished across all these years.
Naturally, though this revelation startled Lu Qing, it failed to unsettle him deeply.
A lone Eight Tribulations Primordial Spirit, even should that veteran ascend to Nine Tribulations, held no terror for Lu Qing amid his present capabilities.
The detail that truly captivated Lu Qing concerned the Gongshu family's treasure vault.
Should he uncover treasures inside the Gongshu family's vault,
he might rapidly achieve yet another major stride in his cultivation.
At that juncture, his actions within the Heavenly Origin Great World could grow utterly boundless.
Upon securing the storage magical treasures from the Gongshu family Primordial Spirits, Lu Qing's silhouette blurred, manifesting inside the Inner City.
Zhou Tian City lay divided by his sword strike, with the Circulation Star Array wholly ruined, its potency dwindled to under a tenth.
The spatial restraint had evaporated, enabling unrestricted deployment of the Space Shifting Technique.
As his Primordial Spirit Sense extended outward, the Inner City's full scenario swiftly reflected within Lu Qing's mind and soul.
His form flickered once more, positioning him before a stately grand hall.
"Halt! Stop right there—the ancestral hall is a forbidden zone; no outsiders may draw near!"
Lu Qing's sudden emergence caused over a dozen Golden Core Realm guards to quiver as if facing a dire adversary, brandishing their magical treasures in opposition.
However, none summoned the bravery to assault Lu Qing.
The prior spectacle of this malevolent force annihilating the ancestors remained etched sharply in their memories.
They comprehended profoundly that this godlike ghost face masked entity lay far beyond their capacity to challenge.
A mere glance revealed every detail of the Golden Core Realm guards to Lu Qing's eyes.
His gaze turning icy, multiple threads of sword qi gathered before him.
The following instant saw the heads of several Golden Core Realm guards detach abruptly, blood soaking the soil.
Lu Qing pressed onward, each footfall heightening the ambient pressure.
Upon arriving at the grand hall's doorway, the Golden Core Realm guards found themselves crushed to the earth, paralyzed.
Lu Qing overlooked them entirely, sweeping his hand lightly to dispatch sword qi that rent the enormous hall doors and its embedded array.
Having completed these actions, Lu Qing at last crossed into the grand hall.
Therein, his vision met a splendor of gold and jade.
Straight ahead sprawled a broad expanse of spirit tablets, while dozens of soul lamps stood enshrined on either side,
each flame casting a pale, eerie luminescence.
