I Can See Through Everything

The old doctor looked at Lu Qing as if he were a rare treasure.

He was both excited and shocked.

"Master?"

Lu Qing was confused by his master's intense gaze and called out.

The old doctor regained his composure. As a master cultivator, he quickly concealed his astonishment, though the excitement in his heart was hard to hide.

"I didn't expect, Lu Qing, that you have such a talent in martial arts. I truly misjudged you," the old doctor sighed.

"The state you entered during yesterday's boxing practice, if I'm not mistaken, is what all martial artists dream of—a sudden enlightenment."

Only sudden enlightenment could explain why Lu Qing had mastered Health Nourishing Boxing to such a level overnight.

"Sudden enlightenment?"

Lu Qing thought about it and realized that his cultivation with his special ability was indeed akin to sudden enlightenment. The difference was that his state of "enlightenment" could be actively entered multiple times.

"Exactly, sudden enlightenment," the old doctor said. "It is said that sudden enlightenment is a mystical state of understanding."

"Entering this state is like receiving divine inspiration. The mind becomes extremely sharp and agile, capable of mastering anything quickly."

"But for ordinary people, achieving sudden enlightenment is extremely difficult."

"In martial arts cultivation, only those with exceptional talent or those who have deep foundations and accumulation can occasionally glimpse this mysterious state."

"That you were able to master the first nine forms of Health Nourishing Boxing overnight clearly shows that you inadvertently entered the state of sudden enlightenment yesterday."

"Master, do you mean that I have considerable talent in martial arts?" Lu Qing asked.

"You have exceptional talent!" the old doctor said solemnly. "To enter sudden enlightenment on your first cultivation attempt, your martial arts talent is something I've never encountered in all my years."

It seemed his demonstration had been quite effective. Feeling his master's excitement, Lu Qing nodded secretly. He had intentionally showcased his "martial arts talent" before his master. With his special ability, his progress in martial arts would undoubtedly be rapid. It was best to establish his reputation as a rare martial arts genius now, making it easier to advance his martial skills in the future.

"Since you've mastered the first nine forms of Health Nourishing Boxing, we must not delay the preparation of the Blood Replenishing and Qi-boosting Pill," the old doctor said, his excitement evident.

Knowing his disciple was a rare martial arts genius, the old doctor decided to go into seclusion immediately to refine the century-old ginseng into a pill. Lu Qing, who had wanted to consult him on the Acupuncture Points Theory, didn't have the chance.

Watching his master hurriedly enter the medicine room and hearing him say it would take at least a day and a night to complete the refinement, Lu Qing found himself with nothing to do.

With nothing else to occupy him, Lu Qing took Xiao Yan home, fetched his fishing rod, and headed to the riverbank.

The black spirit lynx had given him such a generous gift; he felt he needed to show some appreciation.

Taking Xiao Yan to the river, Lu Qing set down his fishing gear. Over time, he had gathered a full set of fishing equipment—rods, nets, and a fish basket. Of course, his fish basket wasn't the kind used in his previous life. It was a large, long fish basket made by an elderly villager skilled in weaving. It could hold fish and fishing gear, making it quite convenient.

This time, Lu Qing chose to fish at the rare fish spot. He was pleased to see the dense white ripples on the water's surface. 

This was his first time returning to this spot since catching the Red Moon Carp. The fish activity here seemed good, with the ripples still dense. Unlike the small fish spot, which had been overfished by the villagers and had lost its luster, it was unclear when it would recover.

Due to this, the villagers' enthusiasm for fishing had waned. Without Lu Qing's ability to easily find fishing spots, they often had poor catches. So, aside from true fishing enthusiasts, most villagers no longer came to the river to fish.

With everything ready, Lu Qing plucked some fruits from the Blood Apricot Tree, baited a hook with one, and waited quietly. 

Yes, this time he came to see if he could catch another rare fish after such a long time.

As Lu Qing fished quietly, Xiao Yan played with a bamboo dragonfly under a tree behind him. She had grown used to accompanying her brother to fish daily and could entertain herself alone.

Biting a grass stalk, Lu Qing watched the float silently. Despite the float remaining motionless for a long time, he remained patient. 

As a fisherman, if he lacked patience, he might as well not fish at all.

After a long while, a ripple appeared near the float. 

Seeing the float tremble slightly, Lu Qing smiled. 

Finally, there was some activity.

He gently placed his hand on the fishing rod, ready at any moment. 

From his fishing experience, Lu Qing knew that big fish in this world often liked to launch sneak attacks.

Sure enough, just as his hand touched the rod, the float suddenly sank into the water. 

Lu Qing jerked the rod.

A strong force pulled on the rod.

Got it!

Feeling the power transmitted through the rod, Lu Qing was delighted. 

With such a strong pull, the catch was either a big fish or a rare fish.

What followed was a battle of wits and strength between Lu Qing and the fish.

Relying on his rich fishing experience, Lu Qing kept releasing tension. 

After a while, he judged that the fish wasn't a Blue-armored Fish or a Red Moon Carp because the fish's movements were entirely different from those two types.

This fish kept diving towards a specific spot at the bottom, determined not to give up. 

But since it was already hooked, Lu Qing wouldn't let it escape easily.

He had recently upgraded his fishing rod. The hook and rod were new and more durable, while the line was still made of Snow Silkworm silk.

Moreover, his physical condition was much better now.

Even when he was physically weak, he could catch Red Moon Carp and Blue-armored Fish. 

Now, after practicing Health Nourishing Boxing, he was even stronger.

As expected, after a battle, the fish in the water tired out.

As soon as it surfaced, Lu Qing scooped it up with a net.

He was stunned when he saw the fish's true form.

It was a fish about two or three fingers thick, roughly two feet long, entirely golden, and resembled a loach.
