184: Players with different levels of understanding
“Damn it, as expected, there’s no insight. This so-called True Intent is just a scam, pure nonsense.”
The player “Xiao Qingcai” cursed.
He stared at the spear light for a long time, saw nothing, heard no prompts, no quests, no rewards, absolutely nothing.
He immediately felt that he must have been tricked by those streamers; there was no such thing as True Intent Comprehension, it was purely a hoax for show.
Xiao Qingcai grumbled, finally averted his gaze from the dissipating spear light, and then casually spoke to the side: “Little Cabbage, let’s go. There’s no need to wait for any Comprehension…”
Mid-sentence, Xiao Qingcai suddenly froze.
Beside him, Little Cabbage, dressed in Xuanhuan robes, had, at some unknown point, sat down cross-legged, eyes closed, with Qi Liu Zhuan around him, clearly having entered a cultivation state.
Xiao Qingcai called out, received no reply, and suddenly realized that Little Cabbage had probably entered a state of meditative absorption.
This self-forgetting meditative absorption greatly increases cultivation efficiency but also blocks out surrounding perceptions. It usually only occurs when in secluded cultivation and is a rare Opportunity.
In a dangerous place like Mingshui Heaven, the two of them were still standing on a mountainside; forget about an Immortal Cave, there wasn’t even any cover.
Little Cabbage actually entered meditative absorption?
No, how dare he?
Xiao Qingcai was completely stunned, then another possibility occurred to him.
Little Cabbage didn’t spontaneously decide to enter meditative absorption; it was the spear light just now, that Nascent Soul True Intent, that led him into a state of meditative absorption!
He really did comprehend something!
Thinking of this, Xiao Qingcai’s expression became very complex.
A complex feeling, both fearing his brother wouldn’t do well and fearing his brother would drive a Land Rover, surged in his heart.
At this moment, many other players also gathered around, all excitedly looking at Little Cabbage.
“Brother, what’s wrong with you?”
“Are you comprehending something?”
“We’re all players. If you comprehend anything, you have to share it with everyone, right?”
The players surrounded them, their numbers growing, and the mountainside where Xiao Qingcai and his companion stood was quickly packed.
Seeing their fiery eyes, as if they wanted to devour someone, Xiao Qingcai immediately became nervous.
He had heard before that many players, after finally finding a Legacy left by their predecessors and immersing themselves in learning it, were suddenly ambushed by players hidden somewhere unknown, forcing them to restart in disgrace.
Killing for treasures is an indispensable and important part of the Xuanhuan World.
“Don’t mess around.”
Xiao Qingcai looked around fearfully: “Even if he really comprehended something, we won’t know until he finishes his meditative absorption. Don’t make a move now.”
The players all nodded; they were willing to wait.
Then, unexpectedly, Little Cabbage didn’t make them wait too long. In barely a minute, he opened his eyes and shot up.
The surrounding players were all stunned.
“That fast?”
“No, what exactly did he comprehend?”
“Learning a Ninth Grade Cultivation Method doesn’t take this little time, right?”
“No loading bar needed?”
Hearing the voices of those around him, Little Cabbage awkwardly scratched his head.
Then he slowly said: “I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint everyone. Although I did see some things, my Comprehension Ability is limited, and I ultimately couldn’t comprehend them.”
It turned out that the moment Little Cabbage witnessed the spear light and felt the sharp Spear Intent, a Cultivator wielding a long spear appeared before his eyes.
He watched the Cultivator swing each move, each move containing profound mystery, as if some divine Cultivation Technique was hidden within.
Little Cabbage watched in a daze, but after watching, he was confused.
He felt that he had watched, but also hadn't watched, because he hadn't comprehended anything.
In short, it was like watching nothing.
The problem was... the other players didn’t think so.
“Bullshit, you’re sitting here in meditative absorption, and you dare say you didn’t comprehend anything?”
“Stop pretending, you definitely got a divine Cultivation Technique, right?”
“The Nascent Soul Inheritance is in your hands, isn’t it?”
“Hand it over, and we’ll spare your life!”
A group of players surrounded Little Cabbage, immediately making him break out in a cold sweat.
He really didn’t comprehend anything.
He did enter meditative absorption just now, and indeed, scenes of spear Cultivators flashed before his eyes.
However, he truly didn’t comprehend anything from it and couldn't “hand it over” at all.
In fact, Little Cabbage’s situation was common. He had some Comprehension Ability, but he wasn't a top-tier Prodigy, so he could resonate with the Spear Intent but couldn't achieve an Epiphany.
If given some time, allowing him to experience the True Intent he resonated with today day after day, he really could comprehend something from it, and it wouldn't be impossible for him to establish his own sect in the future.
But the surrounding players wouldn't give him time.
“If he doesn’t hand it over, let’s kill him!”
“Since none of us have it, we can’t let him leave!”
“Kill him!”
The players surged forward, and various spells roared out, instantly flashing with streaks of light.
In what seemed like the blink of an eye, Xiao Qingcai and Little Cabbage were torn to shreds, utterly defenseless.
This situation was constantly happening in various parts of Mingshui Heaven.
Too many players had flooded into Mingshui Heaven; even one in ten thousand would still yield a considerable number. The number of players like Little Cabbage, who had resonance but couldn't achieve an Epiphany, was actually not small.
During normal Immortal Cave explorations, the number of Cultivators entering would never be too high, at least not as crowded as it was now, as if it had become a tourist attraction.
So, Cultivators could secretly comprehend and then leave after entering meditative absorption, quietly making a fortune.
But there were too many players, with countless eyes watching. As soon as someone was found to be in meditative absorption comprehending, and couldn't produce anything, they would immediately make a move.
This was due to the precedents set by Midnight Gao Sou, Wang Long, and others. No one could guarantee that after obtaining some Opportunity, they wouldn't quietly achieve a Breakthrough in their Immortal Foundation, or even become the next Great Love Sect Sect Master, dominating one side.
At the same time, besides these players who had insights but couldn't achieve an Epiphany, there were also genuinely enlightened players.
“I’ve comprehended! I’ve comprehended!”
A black-clad player shouted excitedly, his eyes red, tightly gripping a long spear.
The surrounding players gathered around him, also looking at him with excitement:
“Hand it over! Hand over the Nascent Soul Inheritance!”
“If you don’t hand it over, you’ll die here today!”
“Let our Brothers all improve together!”
The players clamored, continuously pressing forward.
But the black-clad player scoffed: “You don’t even know what I’ve comprehended. From today onwards, you and I are as different as clouds and mud. I am a Prodigy soaring to great heights, and you are merely frogs at the bottom of a well!”
The next moment, before the enraged players could react, the black-clad player flicked his long spear, and instantly, the spear moved like a Dragon, a brilliant blue spear light blooming, like a swimming Dragon returning to the sea.
Dozens of surrounding players instantly fell like wheat, and players further away were also struck by the sharp spear light, crying out in pain.
The black-clad player laughed heartily, wielding his long spear as he ran towards the distance of Mingshui Heaven, free and uninhibited.
