Chapter 411: Complete Refinement, Facing Tribulation
Chapter 411: Complete Refinement, Facing Tribulation
"Master, although I've slain the white-robed man, he still has an even more powerful companion who might return at any moment. We must remain vigilant."
Lu Qing's heart was filled with killing intent, but he forcefully suppressed it.
"Indeed, this white-robed man is likely one of the two mysterious powerhouses who appeared in the Central Land not long ago. Besides him, there's also a man in a strange gray robe."
Lin Zhirui spoke up, clarifying the situation.
The others immediately understood.
In the cultivation world, strength is revered above all.
Since the gray-robed man is the white-robed man's senior brother and is respected by him, it's evident that his cultivation must be even more terrifying than the white-robed man's.
The white-robed man's aura was already formidable, but how powerful could the gray-robed man be?
For a moment, everyone's hearts grew heavy, and they couldn't help but look at Lu Qing.
Lu Qing pondered for a moment, "Master, regardless of the situation, all we can do now is to face the challenges head-on. In the recent battle, I gained some insights, and I may need to enter seclusion for a while. As for the village's array formation, I'll have to trouble you to maintain it."
The Great Doctor didn't hesitate and immediately replied, "Alright, Lu Qing, just follow your instincts."
"Indeed, Lu Qing, your cultivation progress is the most important!"
The others felt a surge of energy upon hearing this.
If Lu Qing could achieve another breakthrough, defending against the gray-robed man wouldn't be impossible.
Lu Qing nodded and was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something. He took out a scale armor from the Flame Cauldron.
"Oh yes, there's also this treasure armor. Master, you should refine it first, which will make controlling the array formation much easier."
Indeed, this treasure armor was the very armor the white-robed youth had worn earlier.
The treasure armor was incredibly mysterious and was a high-grade defensive artifact.
Even when Lu Qing used his divine abilities, it still managed to block his attacks, indicating its formidable defensive capabilities.
Moreover, its material was quite peculiar, possessing self-healing abilities.
The cracks that Lu Qing's warblade had created on it had completely disappeared after just a short while.
Considering that his master didn't have any defensive artifacts, Lu Qing decided to give it to him.
Lu Qing had several spirit artifacts and a high-grade artifact, so this treasure armor wasn't as crucial to him.
On the contrary, if his master refined this treasure armor, his strength would undoubtedly increase significantly, elevating him to a higher level.
"This treasure armor..."
The Great Doctor took the scale armor and felt the power within, causing his body to tremble.
However, before he could say anything, Lu Qing had already risen into the air and headed home, quickly entering the house and disappearing from sight.
Lu Qing sat cross-legged on his bed, reflecting on the gains and losses of the recent battle.
The fight with the white-robed youth seemed perilous, but in reality, it hadn't caused him any substantial harm.
After all, he had numerous hidden tricks up his sleeve, and his calculations were precise.
Although the white-robed youth's cultivation realm was several levels higher than his, Lu Qing managed to catch him off guard and strike him down.
As a Golden Core Realm cultivator, the white-robed youth had many techniques he hadn't used, but due to a momentary lapse in concentration, he was slain on the spot.
In the world of cultivators, battles between life and death are often decided by a single mistake.
Sometimes, a minor error can lead to one's downfall, resulting in the loss of a thousand years of cultivation progress.
In the future, I must use this as a lesson and not underestimate my opponents due to my advanced cultivation, lest I suffer an unexpected defeat and perish on my path.
Lu Qing reflected on this for a while, purging his mind of distractions and calming his emotions, entering a state of cultivation.
Although the arrival of the white-robed youth had interrupted his cultivation, the battle had honed his body and soul, accelerating their refinement.
Indeed, sometimes practical combat and pressure are the best ways to sharpen oneself.
Thus, Lu Qing continued his secluded cultivation, unsure when the mysterious grey-robed man would appear.
To make the most of every moment, he immersed himself in cultivation, not even having time to examine the white-robed youth's remains.
Two days later, when Lu Qing opened his eyes again, a divine light flashed in them.
An incredibly perfect and profound aura emanated from his body.
"Finally, my body and soul, all my essence, energy, and spirit, have been perfected."
Lu Qing felt his own state, his body and soul merging into one, harmonious beyond measure, without the slightest conflict.
The spiritual energy in his Dantian Qi Sea was incredibly abundant, refined to its limit; even the Five Elements Gourd couldn't further refine it.
All his essence, energy, and spirit had been honed to their peak state.
Inside and out, there wasn't a single flaw left.
Suddenly, Lu Qing had a moment of enlightenment.
At this stage, he had cultivated the Foundation Establishment Realm to its utmost perfection, with no room for further advancement.
To become stronger, there was only one path.
That was to break through the limits and advance to a brand new realm!
Then, it was time to break through.
Without hesitation, Lu Qing dispelled the array formation in the room and soared into the sky, flying towards the depths of the Ten Thousand Mile Mountains behind the house.
"Master, I'm about to face the tribulation and break through. The village will temporarily rely on you for protection."
The old doctor, also seated in meditation in the Half-Mountain Courtyard, heard this mental transmission and was initially startled, but then his face lit up with joy.
Face the tribulation and break through!
Is Ah Qing about to enter the Golden Core Realm? By now, the old doctor had gained a profound understanding of the path of cultivation.
He knew that at their level, he and Lu Qing could only advance by facing a tribulation, and that realm was the only one they needed to reach.
The Golden Core Realm!
A legendary realm where one could transform and manifest mystic power, fly through the skies, and move across the earth without relying on artifacts, solely through one's cultivation!
However, after the initial joy, worry resurfaced in the old doctor's eyes.
While the Golden Core Realm was incredibly powerful, the tribulation was not easy to overcome.
According to the records in the books Lu Qing gave him, the more profound one's Foundation Establishment Realm was, the more terrifying the Golden Core Tribulation would be upon breakthrough.
Given Lu Qing's cultivation, his Golden Core Tribulation might be extremely terrifying, far beyond a typical heavenly tribulation!
But at this point, the old doctor also knew he couldn't help Lu Qing.
The only thing he could do was pray for him, believing that Lu Qing would successfully overcome the tribulation and break through.
The old doctor suppressed his emotions and continued his cultivation.
The invasion of the white-robed man had also given him a significant shock.
Facing a powerful enemy, Lu Qing had to fight alone, and he couldn't lend any assistance.
As a master, he felt he had failed somewhat.
He didn't want to experience this again.
Lu Qing flew swiftly, entering the depths of the Ten Thousand Mile Mountains and began searching for a place to face the tribulation.
After some searching, he finally settled on a massive mountain peak.
"This will be the place."
