Chapter 595: Chapter 386: Small Success in Divine Skills, Power Surge

“I see.”

The elder doctor, upon hearing Lu Qing’s words, suddenly understood.

Although he didn’t know how long it would take to stabilize the realm after breaking through to the Golden Core Realm,

judging by Lu Qing’s demeanor, it was obvious he had a plan.

“So Master, there’s no need to worry. Even if someone at the Suspended Mountain truly breaks through to the Golden Core Realm, we may not necessarily be afraid of them.”

Lu Qing said with a slight smile.

The tone held a confidence that inspired others.

“Ah Qing, as long as you have confidence in your heart, that’s good.”

The elder doctor did not doubt Lu Qing’s words because he knew his disciple never did anything without confidence.

Although the Golden Core Realm was indeed powerful, since Lu Qing claimed to not fear it, he must have a reason.

After the master left, Lu Qing continued to comprehend the process of evolution of the Heaven and Earth rules around him.

Previously, his realm was low, and his understanding of the Heaven and Earth rules was extremely superficial.

Now that he entered the Foundation Establishment Stage, though his understanding remained shallow, he could gradually grasp a hint of its essence.

“Young Master, are you really not worried that the old guys within the Suspended Mountain will come looking for trouble after they break through to the Innate Realm?”

Yan’s figure appeared by Lu Qing’s side.

“What, even Senior ‘Yan’ is worried? As the distinguished Artifact Spirit, you must have witnessed many Primordial Spirit Realms, yet would you still care about a mere Golden Core Realm?”

Lu Qing teased.

Yet unexpectedly, ‘Yan’ turned serious.

“I know that you, Young Master, are exceptionally talented, almost invincible within the same realm.

But the Golden Core Realm is different. Those who transform from Mana, their power is beyond what the Foundation Establishment Stage can imagine.

The power of the same spell, when driven by Spiritual Power versus Mana, is a fundamental difference.

So, Young Master, you must not underestimate any Golden Core Realm.”

Seeing ‘Yan’ speak so seriously, Lu Qing also turned earnest.

“I will remember Senior’s advice.

Don’t worry, Senior ‘Yan,’ the power of the Golden Core Realm is naturally something I respect.

I won’t provoke them unless absolutely necessary.”

‘Yan’ observed Lu Qing for a moment and nodded upon seeing he was not joking:

“As long as you are aware, Young Master. Although the Leaving Fire Tripod and the Heaven and Earth Pouch are strong, your realm is still a bit low, and the power you can exert is limited.

Even with two Spiritual Artifacts in hand, confronting a true Golden Core Realm could still be challenging.”

“Understood.”

‘Yan’ said no more.

Though he had been by Lu Qing’s side for so long, there was still a mysterious aura about Lu Qing that ‘Yan’ could not fully understand.

If he was so confident, perhaps he did have an ace up his sleeve that ‘Yan’ was unaware of.

The following days remained calm as Lu Qing continued to comprehend the evolution of the Heaven and Earth rules, gradually gaining insights.

On this day, in the process of contemplation, he suddenly had a flash of enlightenment, and a deep understanding arose naturally.

An enigmatic aura emerged on his body.

“Finally, I’ve cultivated this Small Divine Power of Great Strength to a Small Success stage.

With my current power, I might not be much different from those Body Cultivators of the Golden Core Realm.”

Feeling the surging and formidable power within his body, Lu Qing revealed a satisfied expression.

He could feel that, with his current strength, even a small tremor might completely destroy this bamboo forest in the back mountain.

Such power had already exceeded the category of the Foundation Establishment Realm and might rival that of the Golden Core Realm.

“Young Master, what is this!”

From within the Leaving Fire Tripod, ‘Yan’ manifested a phantom next to Lu Qing, his ghostly face full of shock.

The aura emanating from Lu Qing made even ‘Yan’, who hadn’t fully recovered to his peak, feel a sense of trepidation.

This was not the level of power a Foundation Establishment Realm could possess.

“Senior ‘Yan’, don’t be alarmed. It’s just a Secret Technique I’ve been cultivating that has yielded some results,” Lu Qing said.

“Secret Technique?”

The shock on ‘Yan’s face did not diminish.

It was hard to believe what kind of Secret Technique could elevate Lu Qing’s strength to such an extent.

At least, there was definitely no such terrifying Secret Technique in the Li Huo Sect back then.

At that thought, worry surfaced in ‘Yan’s heart, and a trace of concern appeared on his face.

“Young Master, some Secret Techniques may indeed boost your strength dramatically in a short time, but if it depletes your potential, it would be a grave loss.”

Lu Qing was stunned and then immediately understood what ‘Yan’ was referring to.

“What, does Senior ‘Yan’ think I’ve been practicing some Demon Dao Secret Technique?” Lu Qing chuckled.

‘Yan’ said nothing, but his implication was clear.

Especially when he thought that within the Leaving Fire Tripod, there was a mysterious Demon Cultivator’s Divine Soul.

That Demon Cultivator was enslaved by Lu Qing, and they could communicate through the Enslavement Mark.

Could it be that the Demon Cultivator had truly bewitched Lu Qing?

“Young Master, Demon Cultivators are always treacherous and deceitful. Their words are full of lies and traps. You must be cautious and do not easily believe them.”

“It seems there is a real misunderstanding from Senior.”

When Lu Qing heard this, he instantly realized what ‘Yan’ meant.

He thought Lu Qing was bewitched by the Demon Cultivator into practicing some harmful Demon Technique and Evil Technique.

However, ‘Yan’s concern still warmed his heart somewhat.

At least this ancient Artifact Spirit was genuinely looking out for him.

“What, you didn’t practice the Secret Technique given by the Demon Cultivator, Young Master?”

“Of course not. I’ve been practicing the Five Elements Body Refining Technique, which Senior knows, so how could I cultivate those Demon Dao Techniques that harm the foundation?” Lu Qing shook his head.

“Then your strength…”

‘Yan’ did not doubt Lu Qing, but his strength had increased so inexplicably.

Aside from those Evil Techniques and Demon Techniques that damage potential and foundation in exchange for power, ‘Yan’ couldn’t think of any other Secret Technique that could elevate Lu Qing’s strength so much in such a short time.

Watching this, Lu Qing suddenly smiled.

“Has Senior ‘Yan’ ever heard of Divine Skills?”

“Divine Skills?”

‘Yan’ was initially stunned, then his eyes widened, “Young Master, are you talking about Divine Skills?!”

His voice even turned a bit sharp.

“That’s right.”

Lu Qing dismissed the Divine Power within his body, and his aura gradually gathered back.

“When I crossed the tribulation back then, I was fortunately granted the Divine Secret Skill from the heavens. Just now, I managed to comprehend and cultivate that Divine Skill successfully.”

“It was actually a Divine Skill…”

‘Yan’ murmured, his gaze filled with shock.

As an Artifact Spirit that had existed for tens of thousands of years, ‘Yan’ certainly knew what Divine Skills were.

But Divine Skills were extremely rare, even in the Ancient Immortal Cultivation Era, only a handful of fortunate cultivators possessed them under very fortunate circumstances.

And those cultivators, as long as they grew smoothly, almost all became giants in the Cultivation World, among the top tier of strong cultivators.

And now, Lu Qing actually possessed Divine Skills?
