51: Chapter 0051 Enhancement of Divine Sense

"Wonderful, thank you, Master."

Gu Huan did not understand Qin Yao's thoughts, nor did he care to.

In his view, the Supreme Heavenly Demon Art was more important than any desire; whether it was physical or mental, nothing was as attractive as the Heavenly Longevity Technique.

Longevity is always the primary pursuit of a Cultivator.

Therefore.

Gu Huan's goal had long been established: when the time came, he would ask Qin Yao about the whereabouts of the Supreme Heavenly Demon Art.

"Then I shall go and Cultivate, awaiting Master's good news."

"Wait a moment! Take this."

"Thank you, Master."

Gu Huan caught the Medicinal Pill that Qin Yao tossed over. Although he no longer had any use for it, he could not explicitly refuse, lest it cause unnecessary trouble.

Besides!

He could save it for Liu Zhu to take for her Cultivation.

Inside the secret chamber.

Gu Huan sat cross-legged and took the wooden box out of his Storage Pouch, which contained the Cultivation Technique he had bought from Wang Sanshun.

"Huh! A scent?"

Gu Huan sniffed the wooden box, then examined it carefully with his Divine Sense. He discovered a layer of similarly colored pollen on the surface of the box emitting a strange fragrance, and he suddenly realized what was happening.

It wasn't that Wang Sanshun and the Scarred Man were prescient and had calculated his path in advance; rather, he had been targeted from the very beginning.

By means of the pollen's scent.

They could lock onto his location in advance.

"A clever trick!"

"Unfortunately, you chose the wrong opponent!"

Gu Huan opened the wooden box and took out the Cultivation Technique. On the surface, it appeared to be a "Heart Calming Formula," but in reality, it was a Yao Race Cultivation Technique for training the Divine Sense called the "Heavenly Demon Soul Refining Art."

The method of Cultivation was relatively unique.

It used the soul of a Yao Beast to infinitely temper the Divine Sense, thereby giving birth to a Divine Sense Spirit.

The Divine Sense Spirit was born within the Cultivator's Sea of Consciousness, which was the Origin where the Divine Sense was nurtured. It was both extremely important and extremely fragile; once damaged, the consequences ranged from amnesia and dementia to sudden death.

Some high-level Cultivators could take lives just by training their Divine Sense.

Therefore, one had to attach great importance to it and arm it.

The Divine Sense Spirit.

It would help enhance the power of Gu Huan's Divine Sense.

However, the malevolent nature of the Yao Beast could take the opportunity to perform Possession on the host body, so it carried a certain degree of danger.

However.

After the reversal by the System.

The side effects of the "Heavenly Demon Soul Refining Art" completely lost their influence.

When Cultivating, one could ignore the pain of the Yao Beast soul tempering the Divine Sense. The host's will would override the Divine Sense Spirit; with a mere thought, like a raging thunder, one could effectively control the Divine Sense Spirit.

"But!"

"How does one comprehend the Profound Truth within it?"

The "Heavenly Demon Soul Refining Art" was hidden within the "Heart Calming Formula." How could one see the trick to it?

Gu Huan felt a headache coming on, holding the Cultivation Technique and racking his brain to study it.

On the third day.

On the fifth day.

On the seventh day.

He suddenly shuddered.

He finally saw the trick in the "Heart Calming Formula"; the answer was hidden in the first character of each Mind-Cultivation Technique passage.

"Use... fire... to... burn... it, and... you... can... obtain... the... Spirit Refining."

"Burn it with fire, and you can obtain the Spirit Refining."

"So that's how it is?"

He hesitated for a moment.

Gu Huan furrowed his brows, ignited purple Demonic flames in his palm, and carefully brought them toward the "Heart Calming Formula."

The next moment, the "Heart Calming Formula" was completely covered by the flames. A miraculous scene occurred: the powerful Demonic flames did not burn through the Cultivation Technique, but instead caused the "Heavenly Demon Soul Refining Art" to reveal its true form.

The entire Secret Manual was eventually reduced to a single sheet of gold foil.

"Heavenly Demon Soul Refining Art, Incomplete Manual."

"It's in my hands."

Gu Huan held the gold foil in his hands, his eyes shining brightly.

What was even more strange was that, although the "Heavenly Demon Soul Refining Art" was a Yao Race Cultivation Technique, it was inscribed with common Human Race characters, allowing anyone to Cultivate it.

"No time to delay, let's begin!"

The reversal system exempted all side effects, so Gu Huan did not need to be overly cautious or hesitant when Cultivating.

He took out the skull of the Cold Ice Snake and, following the Mind-Cultivation Technique of the "Heavenly Demon Soul Refining Art," stripped the Yao Beast soul hidden within the skull and guided it into his Sea of Consciousness to temper his Divine Sense.

The Cold Ice Snake.

A Late Stage Qi Refining Yao Beast, it was unwilling to submit and resisted violently.

An ordinary Cultivator encountering such intense resistance would naturally feel their Divine Soul tearing apart in agony; they often could not succeed in one go and would need to stop to recover before slowly Cultivating again.

But Gu Huan did not need to.

No matter how the Cold Ice Snake struggled, he turned a blind eye to it all and continued to use it to temper his Divine Sense and achieve Fusion.

Ten days later.

The Divine Sense Spirit was successfully Cultivated.

Gu Huan's Divine Sense was greatly enhanced, and the range he could clearly perceive increased by a full fold, roughly from one mile to two miles, reaching the Divine Sense strength of an ordinary Middle Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

Not only that.

The Divine Sense Spirit refined from the Cold Ice Snake.

Could also imbue Gu Huan's Divine Sense with a chill, allowing it to be used for offense and defense.

"Let's try it out!"

Gu Huan smiled slightly and moved his thoughts.

His Divine Sense struck out like the Cold Ice Snake opening its eyes; wherever his gaze fell, the ground turned cold. From large earthworms to small ants, everything seemed to freeze, and all their actions and postures were clearly visible.

Immediately after.

A cold-blooded giant snake covered in icy scales, with deep red eyes and a ferocious head, left his body at an incredible speed. It passed through the walls as if they were nothing, crawling around the Immortal Cave to spy.

At this time.

Qin Yao was in the main hall sipping tea, sitting gracefully.

Suddenly, her expression changed drastically, and her delicate body trembled violently. An inexplicable chill surged from her toes to the top of her head, and she stood up abruptly as if facing a formidable enemy.

"Who is it?"

"Get out here!"

She shouted in terror, feeling a chill run down her spine.

It was an unprecedented terror, as if she had been watched for a long time without her even noticing.

"Master, what's wrong? Why is your face so pale?"

Hearing the commotion.

The culprit arrived at the main hall immediately, pretending to be completely confused.

Qin Yao swallowed, quickly darted in front of Gu Huan to protect him, and looked around vigilantly.

"Someone is spying on us inside the Immortal Cave."

"That feeling is just like being stared at by a venomous snake."

Gu Huan scratched his head; he hadn't gauged the scale properly when releasing the Divine Sense Spirit for the first time, and he had actually scared her.

Otherwise.

With his Foundation Establishment cultivation, if he really wanted to pry into Qin Yao's privacy, he wouldn't have been exposed immediately.

"No way, it's just the two of us in the Immortal Cave!"

"No, you must come and check it with me."

Gu Huan did not refuse and silently followed behind Qin Yao, earnestly searching the Immortal Cave, but in the end, they found nothing.

Seeing this result, she touched her chin with a strange expression and muttered to herself: "There's no reason! Could it be that I really sensed it wrong?"

Gu Huan was thoughtful.

He decided to divert her attention.

"Master, could it be that you haven't Plucked for too long, and your body has become sensitive?"

Gu Huan was telling the truth. Qin Yao was indeed a rare, top-tier beauty. Having not Cultivated with the ultimate origin yang for a long time, her body had become incredibly sensitive; she would blush uncontrollably even if touched.

"That's possible!"

"It has indeed been quite a while since I Plucked and Cultivated. Then, it will be hard work for you to carry your Master to the bed."

Qin Yao giggled, and Gu Huan nodded.

He picked up the beauty and headed straight for the battlefield.

Robes were scattered everywhere, and the curtains swayed.

...

Three days later.

Qin Yao was no longer suspicious.

Having indulged in the joy of Hehuan for three consecutive days, she had long forgotten the terror of that day.

"Master, stay home and consolidate your Cultivation. I will go to Senior Sister Liu Zhu's place to find Brother Genshuo, and we will go to Yangding Peak together to Cultivate, adding bricks and mortar to your great cause of immortality."

"Hehe! Go, go!"

"Master will Cultivate diligently and will never let your efforts go to waste."

Qin Yao lay quietly on the jade bed, propping up her head. She only covered her delicate body with a thin silk blanket, leaving her rounded, fragrant shoulders, beautiful collarbones, and snow-white, smooth long legs exposed to Gu Huan's eyes.

Her eyebrows were as beautiful as distant green mountains.

Her eyes were as hazy as cold mist over autumn waters.

Her lips were as beautiful as red lotus petals.

Gulp!

Gu Huan swallowed, looking hesitant.

"Master, may I kiss you before I leave?"

"Hmm?" Qin Yao was clearly stunned. She smiled charmingly and parted her red lips slightly. "Then come here!"

Gu Huan walked to the side of the bed, looking at the woman who was only covered by silk. The latter beckoned to him, signaling him to come closer, and the former obeyed.

Immediately.

The flawless, snow-white body emerged from the silk, threw her arms around his neck, and offered a sweet and passionate kiss.

...
