72: Chapter 72 New Track

He saw Long Daoyi and Tian Yingying digging small holes in an open space, placing herb seedlings into them, filling them with soil, and watering them.

Immediately after, the two stood on either side of these seedlings, simultaneously opening their hands and beginning to unleash their Supernatural Ability.

Green energy appeared on both of their palms, winding towards each seedling, and was quickly absorbed by them.

Once the seedlings absorbed this green energy, they all seemed to come alive, twisting their bodies, stretching their branches and leaves, and rapidly growing taller and larger. In an instant, they grew from small seedlings to knee-height, radiating infinite vitality.

Ling Yichen watched this scene, his eyes wide with astonishment.

It was his first time seeing the use of a growth-inducing Supernatural Ability; he didn't expect it to be so miraculous.

Suddenly, his gaze shifted, and a question came to mind. He immediately asked Long Daoyi.

Senior Brother, I have a question. Is this [growth-inducing] Supernatural Ability only applicable to plants? Can it be applied to other species, for example... animals?

Long Daoyi laughed upon hearing this and replied, "You want to accelerate the growth of animals, helping them quickly pass through their juvenile stage and enter adulthood, right?"

Ling Yichen nodded immediately; that was indeed what he was thinking.

If animals could quickly pass through their juvenile stage and enter adulthood, it would be a huge boost for a Beast Tamer.

One must know that the strength difference between a juvenile pet and an adult animal is vast.

Moreover, the higher the grade of the animal, the longer its growth cycle. If this growth cycle could be shortened, it would be a great blessing for a Beast Tamer.

However, Long Daoyi said with a look of regret, "Regarding this point, Master thought of it long ago, but unfortunately, it cannot be done yet. Perhaps it's because our strength is too low!"

Ling Yichen wasn't too disappointed upon hearing this.

He had just mentioned it casually. It would be best if it worked, but if it didn't, it wouldn't affect him much.

The strength of his "pet" didn't depend on whether it was in its juvenile or adult stage.

However, he immediately thought of something else and excitedly said to Long Daoyi, "Senior Brother, I suddenly thought that this Supernatural Ability of yours could actually be used in combat, and it even has considerable combat capability."

For example, if you carry a lot of seeds or seedlings with you, as long as you can attach the seeds to the enemy and then activate your Supernatural Ability, the seeds could instantly grow, entangle the enemy, or even kill them directly.

Plants have the ability to entangle; this is a very powerful auxiliary skill. Even if you team up with others, you can play a significant role.

Long Daoyi's eyes lit up after hearing this.

Oh, that seems like it really could work!

He was instantly energized, as if he had discovered a new world.

Furthermore, some plants have bloodthirsty characteristics. If you can collect their seeds and attach them to an enemy, they can enter the opponent's body and directly suck their blood dry until they die!

Hiss... just thinking about it is so powerful!

Long Daoyi suddenly became excited and agitated, giving Ling Yichen a hard pat.

Junior Brother, you are truly a genius. You are so smart.

He praised him happily.

Haha, not at all, it's just that you haven't made the connection deeply enough. Actually, plants and animals have many commonalities.

For example, both plants and parasites can parasitize others.

Some plants, like parasites, can also suck blood and so on.

You should study it carefully later. Maybe you can open up a new path. That way, even if your...

Ling Yichen almost blurted out: even if your energy center is shattered, you can still possess powerful combat strength.

But he stopped immediately, staring blankly at Long Daoyi.

Long Daoyi looked at him blankly and asked, "Even if what?"

Ling Yichen smiled, shook his head, and said, "Nothing, anyway, you should study it carefully later. It is definitely a skill that can be developed in depth."

Subsequently, Ling Yichen glanced at Tian Yingying not far away and said, "You too, help my Senior Brother study it well. This will also be of great benefit to you!"

Tian Yingying nodded obediently immediately, "Mm-hmm, I will!"

At this point, a crisp meow sounded.

Ling Yichen immediately knew that Doudou, the cat from Ye Qingzhu's house, had brought his seven-leaf lotus heart.

So he stopped chatting with Long Daoyi and the others, greeted them, and went straight into the small building.

Sure enough, he saw Doudou standing on a table inside the small building with its eyes squinted.

Ling Yichen glanced at it and tapped the table lightly.

Doudou immediately opened its mouth and, in a strange way, spat out a jade box, then another jade box...

A total of five jade boxes were spat out from its mouth and placed neatly on the table.

Ling Yichen opened one of the boxes and immediately saw lotus seeds emitting an exotic fragrance.

Well done! Ling Yichen affectionately stroked Doudou's head.

Doudou immediately let out a soft meow, rubbed against Ling Yichen's hand, and then turned and slipped out through the window, disappearing.

Ling Yichen immediately stored all the jade boxes into his Storage Ring and walked towards the elevator leading to the underground cultivation room.

With the seven-leaf lotus heart in hand, although the quantity was only 50, adding the box given by the teacher made it barely 60, which was not enough for him to fully recover his Mental Energy, but it was barely enough.

Soon, Ling Yichen appeared at the underground base.

He chose one of the cultivation rooms, entered it, activated the formation, and took out a seven-leaf lotus heart to begin refining and recovering his Mental Energy.

Two hours later.

Ling Yichen had finished refining all nearly 60 seven-leaf lotus hearts in his hand.

His Mental Energy had also recovered to nearly 90%.

At this moment, in Ling Yichen's spiritual sea of consciousness, a huge spiritual ocean was rippling, much wider than before.

Ling Yichen also truly felt that his Mental Energy was very profound.

At this time, he looked up at the purple mist floating throughout the spiritual sea of consciousness. With a thought, the purple mist immediately surged towards the spiritual ocean below.

The spiritual ocean immediately rolled with waves, as if the entire ocean was boiling.

Half an hour later, all the purple mist had entered the spiritual ocean.

The entire spiritual sea of consciousness became empty and desolate again, but in the next second, he saw golden light spots emerging from the spiritual ocean below.

Those golden light spots looked like fireflies, quickly gathering together, and in an instant, they turned into a golden cloud.

This golden cloud was more than three times larger than the previous one, and most importantly, this cloud was fundamentally different from the last one.

Ling Yichen didn't know what those were or what their utility was last time.

But now, Ling Yichen understood.

This was divine sense, or more accurately, fragments of divine sense.

Once the cloud formed by these divine sense fragments turned into raindrops, Ling Yichen would truly possess his own divine sense.

However, Ling Yichen did not rush to refine these divine sense fragments but began to practice the Star Origin Guiding Technique.

He had originally cultivated 27 stars, but because he overloaded them while "aiding" the moon last night, they exploded.

Fortunately, his spiritual sea of consciousness was large enough to withstand the power of the exploding stars; otherwise, he would have died last night.

Even so, he did not regret aiding the moon.

Because this was something he was extremely eager to do in his heart.

Although it did not have any real effective effect, at least his heart was no longer conflicted.

This was beneficial to his cultivation. If he had done nothing last night, he would have developed a heart demon, would have kept thinking about this matter, and over time, he would have been ruined.

And now, he wanted to start condensing stars again and form the Star Source Conduction Formation.

With a thought, his spiritual sea of consciousness shook, and a suction force soared into the sky. Wisps of star power were absorbed by him and quickly condensed into a Star Vortex.

The Star Vortex continued to absorb star power, gradually strengthening until it was full and complete.

Then Ling Yichen began to compress and refine it.

The whole process was extremely familiar to Ling Yichen.

In about half an hour, a star emitting brilliant light was refined.

At this time, Ling Yichen was also very happy.

The significant increase in Mental Energy has led to a significant increase in the speed at which I compress and refine stars. It used to take forty minutes to refine one, but now it only takes half an hour.

Shortening the time by 10 minutes for one star was a huge improvement, and he could quickly refine more stars.

So, he began to refine the second one...

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, four hours had passed!

It was already time to finish school, and there were 9 stars in Ling Yichen's spiritual sea of consciousness.

With a thought, the 9 stars were immediately arranged in a circle in a clockwise manner.

The moment the circle appeared, the star halo trembled, and a huge suction force appeared, but it was immediately suppressed by Ling Yichen, and he immediately stopped his cultivation.

After what happened last night, he suddenly discovered that the Star Source Conduction Formation was not limited to 9 stars; it could be 18, or 27.

And as the number of stars increased, the power erupted by the Star Source Conduction Formation also increased geometrically.

Take the super-large conduction formation composed of 27 stars, for example; it is far more powerful than the Star Source Conduction Formation composed of three sets of 9 stars.

So this time, when re-practicing the Star Origin Guiding Technique, he would improve his cultivation method and combine the Star Source Conduction Formation into a number of 27 stars or more. He wanted to try and see what the limit of the Star Source Conduction Formation was!
