"The enlightenment of the soul is indeed different from the state of comprehending supernatural abilities."Lu Qing didn’t know how long had passed before he awakened from his state of enlightenment, eyes full of amazement. At this moment, he felt incredibly good. Everything around him was within his grasp. Not only had his sensory power greatly increased, but his control over his physical body had also reached a new level. With a thought, his mind once again immersed into the qi acupoint at his brow. He saw that the qi acupoint at his brow had undergone a dramatic transformation. Not only had the space of the qi acupoint expanded several times, allowing it to contain more soul power, but the white mist representing the soul power had also become much denser. With these two combined, his soul power had increased more than tenfold compared to before. In the center of the qi acupoint at his brow, a misty soul rune stood, exuding an ancient, heavy, and majestic aura, hovering in the air and swallowing the surrounding white mist of soul power. Every time it inhaled and exhaled, Lu Qing could feel that the white mist of soul power seemed to be refined, subtly enhancing. "According to previous estimates, before condensing the soul rune, my soul power was already comparable to a martial grandmaster at the initial precelestial realm, not much weaker than the ancestor of the Wei family." "Now that the soul rune has formed, and the soul power has skyrocketed, in terms of soul power alone, I can already crush most ordinary initial precelestial martial artists." The soul of a person has always been extraordinarily mysterious and elusive. Even precelestial martial artists have a limited understanding of it, making it difficult to comprehend, let alone grasp its essence. Without special techniques, it is very difficult for precelestial martial artists to specifically enhance their soul power through cultivation. Typically, soul power only increases during breakthroughs in cultivation realms, when the laws of heaven and earth wash over them and their bodies transform. However, soul techniques are extremely precious, and only the most ancient and powerful top-tier forces have access to them. Ordinary precelestial martial artists can hardly get in touch with them. Therefore, unless they have special opportunities, the soul power of ordinary initial precelestial martial artists does not differ much. With the formation of his soul rune, the transformation of his brow's qi acupoint, and the great increase in soul power, Lu Qing had far surpassed ordinary initial precelestial martial artists. He might even be on par with those who have achieved small success in the precelestial realm. Most importantly, with the refinement and enhancement from his soul rune, his soul power was continuously increasing. Although each inhale and exhale only slightly enhanced his soul power, over time, this accumulation was quite significant. "Plus, with the Furnace Visualization Method, my soul power still has great potential for growth in the coming days." Lu Qing was very pleased. With several top-tier inheritances and the teachings of his master, he understood the path of cultivation. After stepping into the precelestial realm, soul power becomes extremely important. Stronger soul power leads to higher comprehension, making it easier to understand the precelestial dao and progress faster. The more solid the foundation, the greater the benefits during future breakthroughs. Now, before even stepping into the precelestial realm, he already possessed soul power far surpassing ordinary initial precelestial martial artists. When he truly steps into the precelestial realm and undergoes the baptism of the laws of heaven and earth, to what extent would his soul power transform? Lu Qing was very much looking forward to it. "And moreover..." Lu Qing extended his right hand, and with a thought, a small rune gradually formed at his fingertip, emitting a mysterious aura. "With the formation of the soul rune, I can finally use some techniques of the rune path." This explains why the rune path is difficult to cultivate. Even with Lu Qing’s abilities and many fortuitous encounters, it still took him more than two years to condense the soul rune. Ordinary rune path practitioners have no idea how long it would take to reach this step. Before the soul rune is fully formed, rune path practitioners do not have many means of self-protection. Unless they practice other systems simultaneously, pure rune path practitioners might not even be able to defeat a martial artist at the qi and blood realm before condensing the soul rune. However, a person’s energy is limited. Cultivating the rune path is already difficult enough; if one were to practice other methods simultaneously, progress would be even slower. Those with lesser aptitude might not even be able to get started. "I wonder if the disappearance of the Divine Rune Sect has anything to do with this." A thought suddenly flashed through Lu Qing’s mind. seaʀᴄh thё NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "But in any case, I have finally condensed the soul rune." "I was recently hesitant about whether to break through to the precelestial realm, but now there’s no rush. I’ll first practice some techniques of the rune path." Lu Qing had reached the peak of the internal organs realm and the grandmaster realm a year ago. With his soul power long tempered and very strong, if he wanted, he could have already used his soul power to pry open the qi acupoint, build the bridge to heaven and earth, draw in qi, and achieve the precelestial realm. However, with a vague premonition, Lu Qing had not done so. With the great change in heaven and earth imminent and the spiritual revival about to fully unfold, he felt that rushing to achieve the precelestial realm might cause him to miss a great opportunity. At that time, his soul rune had already been more than half condensed, its framework taking shape. He trusted his intuition and suppressed his cultivation, refraining from breaking through. Now, with the soul rune fully formed and his soul power greatly increased, this feeling had become even stronger, making him less eager to break through. "My master plans to visit Zhongzhou soon to use the opportunity to enter the Sacred Mountain’s holy pool." "Zhongzhou is the most prosperous and affluent place in the nine states, truly a land of heroes and spiritual richness. Perhaps I can gather some useful information there." Having made his decision, Lu Qing collected his aura and got out of bed. Leaving the secret chamber, he saw Xiao Li sleeping soundly in its small nest. Beside it was a half-open storybook and several scattered dried fish. Even as Lu Qing came out, Xiao Li showed no sign of waking up. "You little thing, you’re so carefree." Seeing this, Lu Qing couldn’t help but smile. But he knew that Xiao Li was so relaxed because it was very familiar with his aura and trusted him completely. If it were a stranger, Xiao Li would wake up the moment they entered its sensing range. Lu Qing went up and tugged Xiao Li’s ear. "Xiao Li, wake up." Xiao Li woke up groggily and, seeing Lu Qing, its eyes widened. "Meow?" "Yes, my retreat is over. How many days was I inside?" Xiao Li extended three small claws. "Three days?" Lu Qing was a bit surprised. It seemed that the transformation of the qi acupoint at his brow had taken longer than he had imagined. He had thought it had only been a day at most. "Meow?" Xiao Li called again. "Alright, pack up and we can head back." Upon hearing this, Xiao Li immediately jumped out of its nest, quickly packed up the storybook and its nest, shoved them into Lu Qing’s arms, and jumped onto his shoulder, signaling that it was ready to go. "You little thing, it’s only been a few days since you last played chess with Xiao Yan, no need to be so eager." Seeing Xiao Li's anxious demeanor, Lu Qing shook his head helplessly, and casually put everything into his Spatial Qi Bag. Then, carrying Xiao Li, he walked out of the cave. Table of content
