Chapter 727
Time flowed like water—silent, endless, and imperceptible.
Lu Qing’s seclusion did not stir much attention.
In the village, everyone was long accustomed to him and Xiao Yan vanishing for months—or even years—whenever they went into closed-door cultivation.
After all, everyone knew that Lu Qing and his companions were now immortals.
And for immortals, time was counted not in days or months, but in years.
Some of the younger villagers had also embarked upon the path of cultivation. They, too, understood that for someone as powerful as Lu Qing, a single seclusion could easily span years.
And just like that, five years passed in a blink.
Inside the tranquil chamber of the Yuhua Cave, Lu Qing slowly opened his eyes.
Within them swirled a reflection of the stars—wisdom vast and profound flickering like a galaxy.

A hint of emotion flickered in his gaze.
