I Can See Through All Things' Information Chapter 1292 - 790

On that particular day, the mana inside Lu Qing's body had pushed to its utmost boundary, detecting a chance for advancement.

He wasted no time and promptly summoned the mysterious tribulation aura.

Right away, an enormous wave of tribulation qi along with a deadly aura exploded outward, completely surrounding him.

Luckily, the cavern below ground where Lu Qing picked for his seclusion was sufficiently deep, and he'd prepared an array beforehand.

If not, the immense scale of this tribulation aura could have drawn the notice of numerous mighty experts.

Within the boundless tribulation and deadly aura, Lu Qing stayed completely calm.

After enduring the six tribulations of the Primordial Spirit before, he knew the Primordial Spirit's tribulation inside out.

Even if this seventh tribulation of the Primordial Spirit proved far more intense than the earlier ones, Lu Qing kept his mind and soul steady, refusing to waver.

Not even the tribulations that embodied laws could disturb his Dao heart.

This Primordial Spirit tribulation dragged on for seven full days, yet Lu Qing overcame it without any peril, advancing to the Seventh Tribulation of the Primordial Spirit and solidly entering the Late-stage Primordial Spirit Realm.

"Finally reached the Seven Tribulation Realm."

Lu Qing gripped his fist tightly, sensing the tremendous might surging through him that could flip mountains and stir oceans, his face showing clear satisfaction.

The Primordial Spirit realm consists of nine tribulations altogether, where every three mark a major hurdle, and crossing it brings a huge leap in one's strength.

By succeeding in entering the Seventh Tribulation of the Primordial Spirit this time, his power had soared dramatically yet again.

That said, despite the breakthrough, Lu Qing chose not to wrap up his seclusion right away.

Rather, once he eased his mind and soul, he dove into another session of secluded cultivation.

While advancing to the Seventh Tribulation had boosted his mana's purity, high-grade spirit stones continued to offer him real gains.

As such, Lu Qing had no intention of passing up this swift path to growth.

The greater his strength grew at this point, the surer he'd feel about the tasks ahead.

Days raced past in a blur, one blending into the next.

Lu Qing kept up his rigorous cultivation deep in the underground cavern, tuning out all outside concerns.

Meanwhile, the Holy Alliance above ground grew increasingly restless.

Five years had gone by, and after that wicked demon made its appearance in Zhou Tian City, it hadn't shown itself since.

Despite mobilizing their network of informants for a thorough hunt, they turned up nothing.

Even offering rewards through Netherworld Palace brought zero leads.

It looked like the demon had fled the Heavenly Origin Great World after infiltrating Zhou Tian City, vanishing completely.

But the Holy Alliance dismissed that idea. Considering how sly that demon was, it wouldn't just halt after one breach of Zhou Tian City.

Something bigger and more sinister had to be plotting behind the scenes.

"Lei Tian, how about it? Have you found any trace of that evil demon?"

On a glowing screen, a furry figure with a lion's head inquired.

"No." The imposing middle-aged Lei Tian, dressed in his Thunder Magic Robe, shook his head and replied, "That evil demon is incredibly sly, and with the Gongsu Family's hoard of treasures spanning tens of thousands of years now in his grasp, he's probably lurking somewhere, devouring those riches. What about your Demon Clan—have you uncovered anything?"

"No." The lion-headed figure shook its head too, "We sent the White Flood Dragon King roaming across the lands, but it detected no bloodline pulses from its young. Maybe that evil demon keeps the creature close, or perhaps he's employed some Secret Technique or Exotic Treasure to sever the bloodline link between them."

"Nothing on your end either..."

Hearing that, Lei Tian's heart grew heavy.

Though he'd expected such an outcome, the confirmation still left him somewhat downcast.

For whatever reason, the harder it became to locate the demon's whereabouts, the stronger the uneasy dread gnawing at his heart.

It felt like a dark cloud loomed over his mind and soul, weighing more with each passing moment.

The lion-headed figure shared the same foreboding sense.

It paused in silence for a bit, then abruptly declared: "Lei Tian, I think we can't keep playing defense like this. The evil demon lurks in shadows while we're exposed in the open. Staying on guard forever will end in defeat; we need to launch a counterattack."

"We can't even pinpoint the evil demon's location—how do we strike first?" Lei Tian questioned, confused.

"Hasn't the Holy Alliance already seized some cultivators connected to him? As you mentioned, that evil demon acts protective, so why not bait him out using those captives?" the lion-headed figure proposed.

Lei Tian's fingers shook slightly at the idea. Truth be told, the Holy Alliance had floated this plan earlier.

Back then, though, resistance from certain elders had blocked it.

With the lion-headed figure raising it once more, Lei Tian mulled it over carefully.

After some time, he responded, "We'll need to bring this up in the Holy Alliance."

"I don't get why you're dragging your feet—they're merely Golden Core Realm cultivators. If they perish, so be it; what's to mourn? Lei Tian, remember that evil demon is a wild card. Should he absorb every bit of the Gongsu Family's treasures, he might grow beyond anyone's reach."

The lion-headed figure let out a cold huff, then disappeared, shutting down the Communication Array on its own.

Lei Tian stood there alone, lost in his thoughts about who knows what.

Rumble, rumble...

Deep in the underground cavern, waves of death qi and tribulation qi swirled around Lu Qing, intertwined with frightening bolts of Law Tribulation Thunder.

"Brother has broken through again."

Little Yan murmured to herself, observing the spectacle.

She sensed that ever since entering the Primordial Spirit Realm, her brother's progress in cultivation had picked up pace.

He'd only secluded himself in the cavern briefly, but already he'd faced and passed a second tribulation.

"It's normal. Ah Qing always pushes like this during seclusion."

Little Li, however, appeared totally composed.

It couldn't be helped; after sticking with Lu Qing for so many years, Little Li had seen such breakthroughs happen over and over.
