79: Mermaid's Tears

After waiting for a while, Lin Ye was not bored; he leisurely rode the shark around.

When he saw Kawi again, he was with a Mohe Clan female.

There isn't much difference between Mohe Clan females and males; it's difficult for normal people to distinguish them, as they don't have obvious mammalian-like reproductive organs.

Outsiders can only differentiate them by their attire.

“This is Miss Lili Nai, the owner of this ranch. She will take you to absorb the Mermaid's Tear,” Kawi introduced.

“Hello, Miss Lili Nai,” Lin Ye performed a Mohe Clan greeting.

“Mr. Lin Ye, please follow me.”

Miss Lili Nai led him to the depths of the fishery, where the fish population significantly decreased, and there were almost no crustaceans on the seabed.

In the distance, a faint blue light emerged.

What is this? A lake???

A lake on the seabed???

Forgive Lin Ye's lack of knowledge; the last time he saw a lake on the seabed was in an anime from his previous life.

Alright, he confirmed, this was indeed a lake.

“Mr. Lin Ye, there’s no need to be surprised; this is just a special geological feature,” Miss Lili Nai said, accustomed to it.

She continued, “The Mermaid’s Tear is in this lake.”

She let out a strange screech that even the optical computer couldn’t translate.

From the depths of the lake, an unknown fish, entirely glowing blue, swam over.

After Miss Lili Nai gave some instructions, she gestured for him to ride this fish.

Entering the lake water, he felt the upward buoyancy disappear, replaced by a downward pulling force.

The fish took him deeper, arriving at a light barrier, signaling him to enter.

After Lin Ye entered, he found that this was actually a space with air.

He unzipped his diving suit.

He had already seen the Mermaid’s Tear.

It was a clear spring, no bigger than the palm of a hand.

Following Miss Lili Nai’s guidance, he touched the spring water.

The spring water instantly came alive, coiling around his body and beginning to permeate into his internal organs.

It also continuously expelled excess water from his body.

This process lasted for about ten minutes.

It was completely painless, even bringing a feeling of blissful euphoria.

After it ended, Lin Ye even felt a little lost.

However, he quickly recovered and put on his protective suit again.

The Mermaid’s Tear had a continuous effect, so his strength hadn't changed much yet.

He returned the way he came.

Kawi took him back, gave him a few instructions, and then left.

The Mermaid’s Tear itself was not a wonder, but the place where it was produced was a wonder, and a very high-level one at that.

The effect of the Mermaid’s Tear was very unique.

After it permeated into his body, it would continuously strengthen his body's origin, greatly increasing his potential, and also enhance cell activity and accelerate the absorption rate of Star Power.

However, this required a period of transformation.

Coincidentally, Mr. Xu’s ink separation accessory was also ready, and he was called to pick it up.

It was a necklace, and the pendant was naturally the ink separation.

The necklace also had some runes to better enhance the effect of the ink separation.

Although a wonder itself cannot have runes inscribed on it, a layer of runes can be added to its exterior to act as an amplifier.

The armor would still take half a month.

It was truly difficult for Mr. Xu; it was said that many contestants had commissioned him.

Normally, it was hard to even meet Mr. Xu, but now it was good. He should build a good relationship to get a set of divine equipment.

However, Mr. Xu usually wouldn't even look at the typical price, only accepting orders worth tens of small targets.

The ink separation combined with the Mermaid’s Tear, plus the Star Child's Gas Source Flow and the perfected Energy Diagram, was simply an unbeatable cultivation setup.

Lin Ye felt like he was flying.

The amount of Star Power he gained in one day now was equivalent to a normal genius's cultivation in a month.

He even had to hold back a bit, so he wouldn't accidentally break through.

However, he had a large capacity, so he figured it would take several months to reach his limit.

He had no more worries about Star Power.

And the benefits in terms of skills also arrived.

The Bible of Cadiz.

Cadiz was a famous priest of the Merfolk race.

He had broken through to the Star Level.

His Bible was left for the Mohe Clan, for the geniuses among them to use.

The effect was significant; brain activity increased by more than double, and cultivation efficiency more than doubled.

He spent half a month mastering all the newly learned skills, except for Escape Void, which also reached minor mastery.

Next, he set his sights on the Mind Stream—Sixth Sense, which he had never dared to cultivate before.

Under normal circumstances, with the reminders from his grandmaster and others, he wouldn't have pushed so hard, but now, with the cheat-like boost, he felt he could do it.

What is the Sixth Sense?

Lin Ye had read a lot of information about it before.

The Sixth Sense, also known as extrasensory perception.

Various people have researched and analyzed it, calling it premonition, intuition, omen, or heart sense.

Humans are born with a Sixth Sense.

For example, having a premonition that one's wife is cheating, or that one's husband has a mistress outside.

Through various research and analysis, the Sixth Sense is considered to be the brain receiving external stimuli through the five senses—hearing, sight, taste, smell, and touch—then organizing and analyzing them, and finally determining; while the subconscious receives more things missed by the conscious level, these messages are stored in the brain over years, and when they surface to the conscious level and become a recognizable feeling, that is what is called “intuition” or “Sixth Sense.”

In Lin Ye's view, the Sixth Sense was like a built-in optical computer, reminding him where he had missed something.

Or, based on the information collected by the existing five senses, it makes judgments about how things operate.

Strengthening the Sixth Sense means strengthening this innate ability, turning oneself into a terrifying intuitive freak.

Without needing to think, the brain has already instinctively made the optimal solution.

Following the cultivation method, he called for the sparring partners sent by the Mohe Clan and began practicing.

The cultivation of the Sixth Sense was very strange, very metaphysical.

Things like believing in oneself, meditating, observing carefully in daily life, setting up scenarios to strengthen intuition.

Very metaphysical, incomprehensible, profound and recondite.

This thing also had no relation to Energy at all.

The first five senses could still be amplified by Energy.

This sense, no one could amplify.

Fortunately, his first five senses had all reached great mastery.

Stronger five senses could greatly increase the cultivation speed of the Sixth Sense.

So, he wasn't without a foundation.

Especially after Lin Ye fell asleep, he discovered a big surprise.

Cultivating the Sixth Sense in dreams was incredibly satisfying, several times faster than in reality, and finally, after a night's sleep, he achieved initial mastery of the Sixth Sense.

With the Sixth Sense initially mastered, he called for a sparring partner.

He stood with his back to the sparring partner, letting the sparring partner shoot arrows, and he would dodge.

The sparring partner looked puzzled but still chose to use arrows without arrowheads, drew the bow, and shot.

Before the sparring partner even shot, Lin Ye already felt his hair stand on end.

The targeted area felt as uncomfortable as a needle prick.

This feeling reached its peak the moment the arrow was about to hit, and he almost instinctively dodged it.

The sparring partner looked surprised; he was a Seventh Order, how fast were his arrows? Yet he could dodge them.

Not believing it, Lin Ye didn't tell him to stop, so he kept firing.

The Seventh Order's hand speed directly formed a wave of arrows.

But Lin Ye dodged them one by one, as if strolling leisurely.

Not just the archer sparring partner, but the other sparring partners were also shocked. Was this a Fifth Order?
