Chapter 771 - 512: Finally Leaving
Chapter 771: Chapter 512: Finally Leaving
Uncle Zhang’s funeral was not held very grand according to his own wishes.
It was simply arranged, and finally, as per the old man’s wishes, buried beside the graves of Little Yan’s grandfather and parents.
During the funeral arrangements, Lu Qing and Little Yan both stayed up the night guarding the spirit for the old man.
To have two Golden Core Realm cultivators guard the spirit, and one of them being the strongest in the world.
Uncle Zhang might be the only mortal with such an honor across many worlds.
In the days following the funeral, Lu Qing became noticeably more reticent.
He frequently gazed up at the sky, lost in thought, not knowing what he was pondering.
One day, he went to the Half Mountain Small Courtyard to play chess with his master.
Suddenly, the elder doctor spoke, "Ah Qing, have you been troubled by something lately?"
Lu Qing was taken aback, and upon returning to consciousness, he realized that his recent state had been observed by his master.
After thinking for a moment, he decided to speak truthfully: "Master, your disciple has been contemplating a matter recently."
"What matter is troubling you?"
"Your disciple wishes to leave this world and explore the outside world."
"Explore the outside world?"
The elder doctor’s hand paused, slowly returning the chess piece to the chess box, looking at Lu Qing.
"You say you want to leave this world?"
Lu Qing had once mentioned other worlds to the elder doctor, so he was somewhat familiar with it.
"Yes." Lu Qing nodded.
"Master, the Magic Power Golden Core I’ve condensed is somewhat special, with relatively strong power, and now the spiritual energy of this world can no longer enhance my cultivation.
Not to hide from the master, my cultivation has not progressed even a little for more than ten years.
Unless the Heaven and Earth Dao Sound echoes again, further transforming the spiritual energy.
Only then might my cultivation make a breakthrough.
But I estimate that even if the Heaven and Earth Dao Sound echoes once more,
it won’t take long before my cultivation might again stagnate due to spiritual energy reasons."
"Is it really like this..."
Upon hearing Lu Qing’s words, the elder doctor was internally shocked.
Since Lu Qing entered the Golden Core Realm, he could no longer see through his disciple’s true cultivation.
Unaware that he hadn’t progressed in his cultivation for over a decade.
Looking at Lu Qing’s calm face, the elder doctor finally understood why he wanted to leave this realm and explore outside.
This disciple of his was astonishingly talented in cultivation.
From the day he officially began cultivating, his cultivation speed was astonishingly fast, shocking the world.
More impressive than any genius.
Since the recovery of spiritual energy, he progressed rapidly, crossing the Golden Core Tribulation in a short time, becoming the number one in the world.
Such a peerless genius, yet his cultivation hadn’t advanced even a bit in over a decade.
To be honest, the elder doctor already felt that his disciple’s Dao heart was strong for enduring until now.
Thinking about this, the elder doctor asked, "However, it isn’t easy to leave this world, right? The journey to other worlds should also be challenging."
"From the relics left by the two alien Golden Core Realm cultivators your disciple once slew.
There are star map coordinates of various worlds in the outside world, which can guide cultivators to traverse the stars.
There’s also a Flying Boat Treasure to span the stars, so master need not worry."
"Seems, Ah Qing, you’ve already made plans." The elder doctor said.
"Yes, previously I hadn’t set out because of Little Yan, now that the girl has also entered the Golden Core Realm. This world scarcely has anyone who can threaten her, so I’m also able to travel far in peace." Lu Qing nodded.
"You mean to not take Little Yan with you?" The elder doctor was somewhat surprised.
"Little Yan has just crossed the tribulation, the coming decades are her time to consolidate her realm and improve her cultivation, not suitable for venturing out.
Moreover, the world I wish to go to is filled with hidden dragons and crouching tigers, many formidable beings.
The road ahead is unpredictable, even as your disciple, I’m not confident I can definitely protect Little Yan completely.
So your disciple intends to first explore alone.
If in the future I can establish myself in the outside world, then I will consider bringing Little Yan over."
Lu Qing revealed his plan.
Traversing the stars isn’t a simple task.
There are still many unknown dangers involved.
Even confident as Lu Qing is, he doesn’t want Little Yan to undertake the risk.
After all, the girl is different from him; although she has condensed a powerful Top-grade Golden Core.
She hasn’t nearly reached the limits of this world, even if she stays to cultivate in this world, she can still improve her cultivation.
"That’s fine, but speaking to Little Yan might not be easy, right?"
The elder doctor showed a slight smile.
He knew how much the girl was attached to Lu Qing.
If she learns that she can’t see Lu Qing for several decades, she’s bound to throw a tantrum.
"Your disciple will persuade Little Yan; the girl is a Golden Core Realm cultivator now, she’ll understand."
Despite saying this, when really facing Little Yan and seeing her expectant eyes.
Lu Qing, who has a solid Dao heart and remains expressionless even in the face of Heavenly Tribulation,
felt somewhat nervous inside.
"Brother, you said you have something important to discuss, what is it?"
Little Yan looked at Lu Qing expectantly.
"Uh, here’s the thing, Little Yan..."
Lu Qing calmed his mind and slowly laid out his plans.
"That’s mainly it, I want to leave this world for a while and seek a somewhat stronger world for cultivation."
After speaking, Lu Qing felt a bit uneasy inside.
"So, that’s it? I thought brother was going to talk about something really important."
However, contrary to his expectations, Little Yan was surprisingly calm after hearing.’
