"It just so happens that I was planning to go to the Dao Field anyway; I can just explain this matter to Master."

Lu Qing made his decision. Without further hesitation, he realized there was no need to continue his closed-door cultivation after the breakthrough. His body, Divine Soul, and True Spirit were adapting perfectly to the changes in cultivation that came with entering the Void Illumination Realm Realm.

This was only natural. After the Golden Core Realm, one cultivates their own Dao and evolves their own Inner World. Since these were the products of Lu Qing's own cultivation, he was not unfamiliar with them and did not need time to polish them carefully.

In the past, when his strength was low, polishing his magic power was necessary. After all, at that time, his cultivation magic power was drawn from the outside, transforming Heaven and Earth Spiritual Essence for his own use.

"Now that I have transcended spiritual essence and entered the Dao, the Dao is my foundation, and Heaven And Earth are my barrier. I no longer need to seek cultivation from the outside."

After Lu Qing sensed these changes with his mind, he moved his feet slightly, and his figure left Sun Moon Peak.

The Heavenly Tribulation dissipated, and the thunderclouds were no more.

Some of the curious disciples hesitated, while others wanted to use this opportunity to interact with Lu Qing.

However, these were all external matters for the time being.

Lu Qing headed directly to the Dao Field, making little effort to conceal his presence.

He knew that today's Heavenly Tribulation had been quite spectacular. Even he had not anticipated that the commotion of his tribulation would cause such a stir.

After today, some social obligations would likely come knocking.

But after a moment's thought, Lu Qing felt that, apart from those in the Sword Lineage, he had not met many others. Without many acquaintances, it was unlikely they would visit. However, it was certain that he was no longer an unknown figure.

"The Void Illumination Realm Realm is considered the middle tier of the Sect, and among the disciples, it is considered the pinnacle."

Innumerable thoughts appeared in Lu Qing's mind.

However, upon closer analysis, he realized that the troubles that might have been caused in the past were no longer a concern now that he had stepped into the Void Illumination Realm Realm.

What was most important now were these few hexagram reading signs that had suddenly appeared.

"Whether they are true or false, I will soon know who is behind this."

Sword Meridian Dao Field.

Lu Qing soon arrived here.

It was the same scene as before.

However, the aura of cultivation on some of the disciples he saw was significantly stronger than what he had sensed when he was in closed-door cultivation here.

Apparently, this was because many disciples had returned from outside after the struggle for great Qi Fortune had concluded.

This was the reason for the stark contrast Lu Qing saw.

He merely glanced over them hurriedly before heading toward the Central Hall.

Upon arriving here, Lu Qing naturally did not do anything else.

As he entered the Dao Field and drew closer to the Central Hall, his senses felt different.

Here, he could feel every wisp of Sword Qi; within it, traces of Dao intent were constantly emerging, as if in a cycle of Reincarnation—growing to an extreme, then instantly shattering into nothingness.

Life and death, Reincarnation without end, cycling in a loop, flowing ceaselessly—this gave the sword momentum here a fluid, water-like quality.

"Life, death, Reincarnation—the sword momentum here truly hides deep mysteries."

Lu Qing had not noticed this before because his own Dao, like his Inner World, had been in a state between illusion and reality. Since it was not yet real, it was like a flower in a mirror, difficult to touch.

Now that he had entered the Void Illumination Realm, his Dao had manifested. It was different from the past; as his cultivation had risen, he could naturally see the traces left by his predecessors.

This was the path of seeking, pursuing, and cultivating the Dao.

The Dao is in the heart, the Dao emerges from the void, the Dao manifests externally. After the Dao manifests, one can discern the reality of the Dao. Lu Qing could see a deeper layer because he was not influenced by the sword Dao here.

The sword Dao and sword momentum here appeared upright and magnificent, like the Heaven And Earth, the sun and moon, rotating throughout the ages. Lu Qing's swordsmanship originated here, but his sword Dao had embarked on his own path due to a later shift in his mindset.

Therefore, after stepping inside, he could clearly perceive where every wisp of Sword Qi was—each was a path of sword Dao, a myriad of possibilities all contained here.

"Junior Brother Lu."

Someone called his name.

Lu Qing looked in the direction of the voice.

A thousand meters away, a figure slowly appeared in the void. It was a young man with a handsome face, wearing purple robes and a high cap. He was dashing and carefree, completely different from the silent, soundless Puppet body from before, and carried a sharp edge.

It was a face he had only seen once.

Yet Lu Qing did not feel like a stranger.

The purple-robed youth smiled slightly and said, "Junior Brother Lu, long time no see."

He was none other than Qing Xuan, the predecessor who had written the Great Concealment Art.

"Senior Brother Qing Xuan."

Lu Qing had no time to be more curious, for in the next second, the purple-robed youth brought him directly into the Central Hall.

The other party's movement technique was profound and natural, just like walking normally, without any aura of Divine Ability or Law.

"This Senior Brother's movement technique must have reached the Realm of Heaven-Man Unity."

"Thank you, Senior Brother Qing Xuan."

Lu Qing expressed his thanks.

The other party had brought him over, and he understood this gesture of goodwill.

Qing Xuan smiled and said, "Junior Brother Lu, no need to be so polite. I have heard about your Heavenly Tribulation today. You are truly worthy of being a member of my Sword Lineage. It has only been a few years, yet you have truly astonished me."

Qing Xuan was also one of the astonished Cultivators. Back then, this Junior Brother had only been a Golden Core Cultivator. In the blink of an eye, it was as if he had accumulated strength over time and burst forth, catching up to them, the older disciples. This showed the terrifying nature of his Comprehension and mental state.

Cultivators who had traveled this path could better understand the hardships and difficulties involved.

"Senior Brother is too polite."

Qing Xuan shook his head: "Junior Brother Lu, you are too humble. But coming here today, it is because Master is waiting for you. Any further conversation will have to wait for another time."

"Definitely!"

Lu Qing nodded slightly.

In the Main Hall.

After Qing Xuan brought him in, he nodded at him as well, then his figure flickered and he sat down on a Cloud Platform on the left side.

Lu Qing entered the hall. The Central Hall was divided into inner and outer areas. When Lu Qing had listened to the Dao before, he had been in the outer area reserved for entry-level disciples.

Other personal disciples were also present in the hall.

Lu Qing glanced over them without focusing on anyone in particular, but he knew that almost all nine personal disciples were gathered here. The last personal disciple to join was not present.

A figure on the Cloud Platform appeared both real and illusory. Wisps of Sword Qi rippled through the space. Without a sound, they condensed into a vast, boundless momentum of sword Dao.

Without needing any words, Lu Qing instantly withdrew his focus. This was Master's Dao; it had always been here, but in the past, it was impossible to perceive.

"disciple Lu Qing greets Master."

"Lu Qing, do you have any doubts upon arriving here?" Li Luoyang spoke.

When this Master sat in the hall, his aura was vastly different from the first and second times he had seen him. Lu Qing vaguely guessed that he might also be capable of manifesting millions of Divine Senses; after all, having stayed in the Dao Sect for a long time now, he had heard some cultivation rumors.

Even some Elders in the Dao Academy, when in critical closed-door cultivation, usually required Dharma Bodies, Avatars, or Divine Sense Incarnations to handle affairs.

"Master, this disciple indeed has a matter to report to the Sect..."

Lu Qing did not hesitate and immediately began to explain the corner of the future he had seen during the Heavenly Tribulation.

Since Lu Qing had entered, gazes of observation had appeared along with him.
