Free Web NovelChapter 375: Chapter 333: Night Talk
Upon reaching Mid-Stage Qi Cultivation, the Divine Soul is slightly stronger, but the Divine Sense is still unstable, and Spiritual Power is limited, allowing control of at most one Magical Artifact.
Upon reaching Late-Stage Qi Cultivation, the Divine Soul finally strengthens to a certain level, allowing the Divine Sense to be skillfully used, and with increased Spiritual Power, two Magical Artifacts can be controlled.
And when reaching Qi Cultivation Perfection and entering Foundation Establishment, the strength of Divine Sense is sufficient to bind multiple Magical Artifacts and Spiritual Artifacts.
This means that in the process of continuous cultivation and circulation, besides the improvement in the level of Spiritual Power, the Divine Soul is also gradually strengthening, leading to the enhancement of Divine Sense strength.
Therefore, a cultivator’s cultivation improvement or breakthrough refers to both Spiritual Power and Divine Sense reaching a new realm.
Consciousness Collection, literally meaning the treasure of Divine Sense, refers to the inherently superior Divine Soul, more resilient and potent than ordinary cultivators, thereby exceeding the standard realm of ordinary cultivators, producing more and stronger Divine Sense.
From this perspective, since Lu Qian possesses Consciousness Collection, with extraordinary Divine Soul attributes, it naturally should become stronger with cultivation advancement, increasing Divine Sense.
However, Lu Qian sensed that as cultivation increased, the extent of his Divine Soul enhancement and Divine Sense improvement was diminishing, fearing that after one or two more advancements, each increase would return to normal, no different from ordinary cultivators.
It’s truly strange and bizarre.
Although at that time, due to early accumulation, his overall amount still far exceeds ordinary cultivators, as everyone’s cultivation further increases and realms continually breakthrough, this lead will gradually narrow.
This is inconsistent with the normal situation of Consciousness Collection.
What exactly is wrong with his Divine Soul, his Consciousness Collection?
From Jichuan Profound Monarch’s collection of books, Lu Qian couldn’t find the answer, only discovering a few precious cultivation techniques specialized in training Divine Sense.
"Bright Mirror Dustless Technique," this is the cultivation technique for Divine Sense Lu Qian is currently practicing, authored by the Nascent Soul Sect, it’s very profound.
Unfortunately, cultivation techniques for training Divine Sense can only make it more resilient and flexible, or strengthen the "quality" of Divine Sense, but cannot directly increase its "quantity."
The enhancement of this "quantity" still relies on the strengthening of the Divine Soul itself.
But currently, there’s no cultivation technique to directly enhance the Divine Soul, in the collection of books, Lu Qian only found a Demonic Secret Manual "Soul-Seizing and Soul-Transforming Technique," which extracts the Divine Soul of other cultivators, shattering and stitching them onto his own Divine Soul.
Then one would become a complete mental disintegration case.
Lu Qian doesn’t want to become a mental case, so he can only shelve it high up and think of another method.
No matter what, the enhancement of the "quality" of Divine Sense also allows Lu Qian to perform array transformations and various secret techniques more effectively, with thinking speed and memory capacity increased by thirty percent.
At this moment, Lu Qian’s Divine Sense was fully released, like a wisp of light smoke, gracefully passing through the Yunshan Sect’s Lingsha City dwelling, avoiding the patrolling disciples.
Seeing he was already outside Jiang Qingfeng’s small building, he exclaimed softly.
A stealthy figure managed a Magical Artifact, rising into the air and knocked on Jiang Qingfeng’s window.
"Why are you here?" Jiang Qingfeng was startled, "Come in quickly, don’t let others see you."
The visitor hurriedly slipped inside the window, under the bright indoor light revealing a delicate and tender little face, it was Jiang Baitao.
"Sister!" She called out merrily and dove into Jiang Qingfeng’s arms.
Jiang Qingfeng touched her head with a face full of confusion, then asked solemnly, "Have you gotten into trouble again?"
Jiang Baitao pouted, "I haven’t caused trouble for a while, I’ve grown up, why do you always look at me with old eyes."
"Alright, alright, Taotao is a grown-up." Qingfeng nodded helplessly, "So why are you here? I am now—"
"I know." Baitao drawled, "You’re in seclusion and meditation, waiting to marry Sect Leader Senior Brother tomorrow."
Jiang Qingfeng’s face flushed, even her white jade-like earlobes turned red all over, she swung her hand to hit, but was so soft it had no strength, and Baitao easily dodged.
"What nonsense are you talking about? What marriage... it’s Dao Companion, Dao Companion, okay?"
Baitao pouted, "Oh, it’s all the same, if you ask me, this ceremony can be skipped. Anyway, you’re eager to marry Sect Leader Senior Brother sooner, why don’t you just become husband and wife sooner, and give me a nephew to play with—"
"Jiang Baitao!" Qingfeng’s head started to steam, she lunged over and pinned Baitao to the ground, trying hard to cover her mouth.
The sisters giggled and wrestled for a while before finally quieting down, Baitao nestled in Qingfeng’s arms, Qingfeng’s face still flushed, she tapped her little head, "What did you really come for?"
Baitao snuggled further into her arms, "Just haven’t seen you for a few days, wanted to come and see you."
Qingfeng’s heart warmed, she embraced her, only then realizing, unconsciously, Taotao had grown up.
"Sister, Sister Nishang left." Jiang Baitao suddenly said out of the blue, "I heard from the disciples returning from the marketplace, Sister Nishang had a fight with Sect Leader Senior Brother and then left."
Jiang Qingfeng’s body stiffened, feigned calmness, "I know, don’t spread it around, Elder Gu is preparing for the Golden Core Celestial Tribulation, that’s why she’s temporarily left."
Baitao shook her head, "No, that’s not it, she definitely left because she was jealous seeing you and Sect Leader Senior Brother forming a connection. Sect Leader Senior Brother wanted to keep her, but unfortunately couldn’t beat her, oh, useless man."
Jiang Qingfeng was both amused and exasperated, "Stop reading those chaotic tales, what are you imagining all the time?"
Though she said this, she couldn’t help but believe it a bit, then heard Baitao ask, "Sister, if Sect Leader Senior Brother seems to like Sister Nishang too, if he wants to form a connection with Sister Nishang in the future, would you agree?"
Jiang Qingfeng bit her lips, didn’t speak. Outside listening through the walls, Lu Qian realized things were taking a turn, hurriedly knocked on the window.
"Senior Sister, let me in."
A moment later, Lu Qian, and the two sisters stared wide-eyed, Lu Qian coughed lightly, "Taotao, it’s late night, what are you doing here, quickly go to sleep."
Baitao stuck out her tongue, made a face, "I came to see my sister, but Sect Leader Senior Brother is shameless, sneaking over to eavesdrop at night."
Lu Qian’s face got a little hot, he argued, "What eavesdropping, you’re talking so loudly I heard while passing by downstairs. Go to sleep, I have matters to discuss with your sister, and next time I will buy you candied hawthorn."
Jiang Baitao jumped up, "Ha! I’ve grown up, you can’t fool me anymore, if you want to sweet talk my sister, just say so."
Lu Qian got embarrassed and angry, "Go quickly, or I’ll spank you."
Baitao pouted, "So impressive, huh."
Saying so, fearing getting spanked, Jiang Baitao still covered her head, climbed out from the window.
After confirming she ran far away, Lu Qian exhaled, "This little girl has really grown up, now in her rebellious phase."
He turned around, facing Jiang Qingfeng with an expression half smiling, half serious.
Lu Qian’s heart skipped a beat, hearing Senior Sister softly say, "Speak, sweet talk, I’m listening."
