Moreover, the sudden peeping just now also made him vigilant.
Whether someone is truly spying from outside without him noticing, or if there is still a Heart Demon within his Primordial Spirit, it all indicates that he has not yet reached the true pinnacle.
"According to the records left by the Patriarch, once I truly stabilize my realm, the Immortal Palace should officially open. I shall break through the checkpoints that the Patriarchs could not pass back then!"
The middle-aged man in the Purple Dragon Robe let his thoughts settle, then slowly calmed down and entered a state of cultivation again.
"The aura of that palace just now seemed even more formidable than that of the burly Great Han in the Black and White Taoist Robe before."
Lu Qing, who had been hiding his aura, entered another deserted palace after leaving that remote one.
Only after confirming complete safety did he let out a sigh of relief.
Recalling the aura he sensed in that remote palace earlier, he couldn’t help but feel startled.
The feeling of that aura seemed even more terrifying than the one from the burly Great Han in the Black and White Taoist Robe who wanted to suppress him as soon as he entered the secret realm.
If he hadn’t hidden his aura with the power of restriction in the secret realm, he probably would have been discovered.
"Sure enough, those who came to explore the secret realm this time aren’t to be underestimated. I just don’t know which faction is lurking in that palace just now."
Lu Qing secretly remained on guard in his heart.
It’s obvious that among the forces exploring the secret realm, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers.
Many forces are concealing more terrifying existences behind their seemingly simple surface.
Unfortunately, under the current circumstances, he cannot use his superpower to probe the information of these forces and can only deal with them cautiously.
After contemplating for a while, Lu Qing put this matter aside and prepared to meditate on the restrictions of the palace he was in.
In the time that followed, Lu Qing continued to secretly wander between the many palaces, constantly downloading the inheritances of restrictions.
However, due to the aura he sensed before, he became even more cautious.
And so, another three months passed.
In a medium-sized palace, the seated Lu Qing opened his eyes.
With a thought, the restriction light curtain surrounding the palace also trembled slightly, seeming to ripple with his thoughts.
Lu Qing extended his hand, and a flame-like restriction instantly appeared in his palm, flickering continuously.
If observed carefully, one would find that every flicker of the flame restriction contained dozens of restrictions changing and interchanging within it.
"Indeed, after comprehending and mastering two thousand medium-sized restrictions, my control over the power of restrictions in the secret realm has become stronger, and I can even mobilize some of the power of medium-sized restrictions covering these palaces."
Lu Qing looked at the flame restriction dancing in his hand with a satisfied expression.
After months of tireless introspection, he finally mastered control over two thousand medium-sized restrictions.
Thus, his understanding of the true essence of the [Xuan Yuan Restriction] deepened further.
The flame restriction in his hands was the culmination of his comprehension.
It contained the common meaning of those two thousand medium-sized restrictions and could change into any restriction he mastered at any time.
More importantly, as his understanding deepened, the power of the Gui Xu secret realm’s restrictions that he could mobilize became stronger.
The suppression of the entire secret realm on him also significantly weakened again.
"With the weakening of the suppressive power, in the secret realm now, my speed alone is unmatched by few."
Lu Qing pondered silently, feeling the lightness on his body.
When he first entered the secret realm, the stagnant space here made even his formidable physical body feel uncomfortable.
But now, with much of the suppressive power gone, he could easily unleash his true strength.
If he were to face that burly Great Han in the Black and White Taoist Robe again, he might still be no match, but he would no longer be at the mercy of the opponent.
With the advantage of the terrain, it could be said that he now finally possessed the true ability to protect himself.
"I’ve explored most of the palaces on the outskirts of the Immortal Palace, it’s time to delve further in."
Lu Qing stood at the palace entrance, looking ahead.
Although the medium-sized restrictions contained within the [Xuan Yuan Restriction] number three thousand,
over these days, he also discovered that the palaces on the outskirts of the Immortal Palace are not three thousand in number but only over two thousand.
Some of the more important palaces are at the foot of the vast Immortal Palace.
However, those places are blocked by a terrifyingly powerful wall, making it impossible to approach.
In other words, among the palaces on the outskirts of the Immortal Palace, only those dozens of the most majestic ones remain unexplored by him.
Lu Qing had been cautiously avoiding that side in the past, but now, with his increased survival ability, he finally had the confidence to explore those areas.
With a flicker, Lu Qing disappeared from the palace.
Reappearing before the restriction light curtain,
If witnessed by experts from other forces, such speed would surely astonish them.
To unleash such speed under the suppression of the secret realm is truly extraordinary.
Standing before the restriction light curtain, with just a thought, without needing to cast a spell, the curtain silently opened a passage.
