Free Web NovelChapter 462: Chapter 206: Dual Evolution of Power, Mind Master (Part 2)
Unfortunately, in his past life, just like this one, he could never get the hang of studying no matter how hard he tried. After graduating from middle school, he went to work with his cousin and, by a strange twist of fate, transmigrated to the Great Yuan Dynasty.
If his family and friends from his past life knew that he could now memorize the entire contents of a cultivation technique over five thousand characters long in a single sitting, what would they think?
’If you wish to know the causes of your past, look at what you are experiencing today. If you wish to know the results of your future, look at what you are doing today.’
Chu Lingguang was filled with a myriad of emotions. The thought flickered past, and he instinctively checked his panel information.
Favors: None
Mixed Element Skill (0-10000)
Consciousness Sea Power Basic Cultivation Method (15000-15000)
Celestial Master Technique (4010-6000)
(Remaining Lifespan: 175 years.)
Chu Lingguang noticed that the Endless Dantian was not listed on the panel.
’It seems the contents of the Endless Dantian book are just as Mr. Li and the others said. It’s a collection of the best techniques from various schools, recording all sorts of relatively reliable methods for getting a response from one’s dantian. It’s more like an encyclopedia for awakening dantian power, not some divine scripture that can forge an endless dantian. Otherwise, with my current comprehension, this cultivation technique would have definitely been added to the panel.’
As realization dawned on him, Chu Lingguang sighed.
’Is it really possible to awaken multiple powers within the dantian?’
Filled with doubt, Chu Lingguang went out to find Li Dayao and Liu Wan.
"Chu Lingguang, how are you feeling?"
Liu Wan asked hurriedly when he saw him come out.
Since the two of them had been so intent on guiding and helping him awaken the power in his dantian, Chu Lingguang didn’t hide anything from them. He immediately summoned the power of the Little Red Horse.
The phantom of a tall, powerful steed, over three meters high and wielding the Wind and Wave Power as if it had formed a pair of wings, flashed across the surface of Chu Lingguang’s body.
"This..."
Li Dayao and Liu Wan were taken aback.
The phantom of the Little Red Horse only flickered for a moment. Chu Lingguang couldn’t yet keep the phantom materialized, seemingly because his power was insufficient.
However, he could already control the Wind and Wave Power, manipulating it as he pleased through his Consciousness Power. He could even generate a certain degree of destructive force, making it erupt like a Spear Technique to knock over a nearby water vat.
"What?"
This scene left Li Dayao and Liu Wan utterly dumbfounded—even more shocked than when they had seen the phantom of the Little Red Horse.
"Is something wrong, sirs?"
Chu Lingguang asked in surprise.
"Release your Spiritual Power at full strength. Let us see."
Li Dayao said, taking a deep breath.
"Oh."
Chu Lingguang obediently complied.
A Spiritual Sense Fluctuation composed of countless diamond-shaped fragments radiated from Chu Lingguang’s Sea of Consciousness. Like a school of fish, it enveloped the entire world.
Li Dayao and Liu Wan felt an uncomfortable wave of Spiritual Power wash over them. They both released their own Spiritual Sense Fluctuation to counter it, but theirs shattered on contact, and they couldn’t stop themselves from taking two steps back.
"Sirs!"
Chu Lingguang was alarmed and quickly retracted his Spiritual Power. Just now, when his Spiritual Power had collided with Li Dayao’s and Liu Wan’s Spiritual Sense Fluctuation, he had vaguely seen two Seas of Consciousness appear before him.
Chu Lingguang felt as if he could have easily located Li Dayao’s and Liu Wan’s Seas of Consciousness just now.
One had to understand that the prerequisite for forming an attack with one’s Spiritual Sense was to damage the opponent’s Sea of Consciousness. Simply shattering their Spiritual Sense Fluctuation caused no real harm.
And finding a person’s Sea of Consciousness was no easy task.
You had to follow the opponent’s Spiritual Sense Fluctuation into their body. If they stopped releasing it, you’d be left in the dark, unable to find your target.
But in that instant when their Spiritual Powers had touched, Chu Lingguang had vaguely seen the Seas of Consciousness of both Li Dayao and Liu Wan appear before his eyes. Chu Lingguang was certain it was not a hallucination.
He hadn’t expected his Sea of Consciousness Power to have become so strong.
Instinctively, he performed an Introspection, checking on the state of his Sea of Consciousness.
At a single glance, Chu Lingguang himself turned pale with shock.
Originally, his Sea of Consciousness had been covered by only two halos of light, but now there were three. Furthermore, the large Qi Vortex within his Sea of Consciousness had transformed into a small ocean. Though tiny, it gave Chu Lingguang the feeling that his Consciousness Power was endless.
’Could it be that my ability to control the Wind and Wave Power as I please with a mere thought, and even form effective destructive force, is because my Sea of Consciousness Power has been strengthened again?’
’Could the Endless Dantian also strengthen my Sea of Consciousness?’
’Was this a fortunate coincidence, or the final feedback for reaching Perfection in the Consciousness Sea Power Basic Cultivation Method?’
Chu Lingguang was dumbfounded.
He had been paying close attention to his dantian this whole time, never expecting his Sea of Consciousness Power to have evolved without him even realizing it.
"A Mind Master!"
Li Dayao and Liu Wan exclaimed in unison.
"What?"
Chu Lingguang thought he was hearing things.
"Your Sea of Consciousness Power is even stronger than Yan Zhen’s."
Li Dayao marveled.
"Even in the entire Great Yuan, there are very few people your age who possess such immense Sea of Consciousness Power."
Liu Wan said excitedly.
"Do you two sirs think I can become a Mind Master?"
Chu Lingguang asked, deeply encouraged.
He had long since heard from Guo Wei just how powerful and terrifying Mind Masters were.
"Well... we spoke too hastily just now, but it is indeed a possibility for you."
Li Dayao realized he had lost his composure.
"Becoming a Mind Master not only requires a powerful Sea of Consciousness, but also a deep resonance with one’s own consciousness. In short, it is extremely difficult. However, even if you don’t become a Mind Master, your current power will give you a significant advantage in combat."
Liu Wan added.
"A powerful Consciousness Power not only grants you a photographic memory but also allows you to quickly find your opponent’s openings during a fight."
Li Dayao said with an envious look on his face.
"Sirs, so my control over Potential Power and Wind and Wave Power is because my Consciousness Power is strong enough?"
Chu Lingguang stirred the Wind and Wave Power once more.
"That’s right."
The two nodded in unison.
"Your ability to awaken power in your dantian is also related to your Consciousness Power. It was that powerful consciousness that allowed you to easily find a response within your dantian."
Li Dayao added.
Hearing this, Chu Lingguang released his Elixir Field Power again. The phantom of Little Red flashed past, and he asked, "Then how do I master this power in my dantian?"
"That’s something you’ll have to figure out for yourself. We can’t help you with that."
Liu Wan said with a smile.
"This... all right, then."
Chu Lingguang hadn’t expected that, but he knew Li Dayao and Liu Wan wouldn’t lie to him about something like this.
"A powerful Consciousness Power can bring you unexpected rewards in many situations. You can use it to find all sorts of responses within your body, allowing your cultivation to advance by leaps and bounds." freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
"Don’t be in a hurry to control that power within your dantian. Try to communicate with it first. When you can control all the power in your dantian the same way you control the Wind and Wave Power, your world will change dramatically."
Li Dayao instructed.
"Yes. Thank you, sirs."
Chu Lingguang bowed to them.
"There’s nothing more we can do to help you by having you stay here. You can leave now."
Liu Wan had the feeling of a job well done, ready to retire from the scene.
"But I... all right, then. Sirs, farewell!"
Chu Lingguang actually had many more questions for them, but from Li Dayao’s and Liu Wan’s expressions, it seemed inconvenient for them to say more, so he had to let it go.
「Time flew by.」
Only seven days remained until the provincial Martial Arts Examination.
The Governor’s Mansions in every region began to bustle with activity during this period.
Standing on a small boat, Chu Lingguang had a thought, and the Wind and Wave Power pushed the vessel forward as if it were gliding on ice. It quickly delivered him to the entrance of the small tavern where Guo Wei had confronted Eunuch Liu.
After going ashore, Chu Lingguang saw Li Dayao and Liu Wan standing by the lake, watching him from a distance. He bowed to them once more.
With his powerful consciousness, not only had the range and depth of Chu Lingguang’s Spiritual Sense expanded, but his eyes could also see much farther.
"Chu Lingguang’s Sea of Consciousness Power is exceptional. We have to report this to the academy."
Liu Wan said.
"If the Court learns that he possesses such immense Sea of Consciousness Power, they might place him directly in the top ten, or even have him face off against Yan Zhen."
Li Dayao remarked with a sigh.
"He’s always wanted to face Yan Zhen. Perhaps this is his chance."
Liu Wan said with a smile.
"Let’s not make it public just yet. We’ll see if he can make it to Yan Zhen on his own. If he can’t, then we’ll give him a push."
Li Dayao suddenly thought.
"Then... what about reporting it to the academy?"
Liu Wan hesitated.
"Let’s wait until the Martial Arts Examination begins!"
Li Dayao said, his mind made up.
"Very well. Guo Wei is a smart man. If he finds out about the change in Chu Lingguang’s Sea of Consciousness Power, he probably won’t leak it either."
Liu Wan nodded, and the two came to an agreement.
Chu Lingguang had no idea that while the change in his Sea of Consciousness Power might allow him to face Yan Zhen, an unseen and terrible danger was also closing in on him.
