Chapter 493: Chapter 221: Divine Sense

Upon returning to the Sect, Qin Fang went straight to the peak where his master meditated in seclusion.

He would wait here for his master’s return.

Heavy snow began to fall from the sky, but as the flakes drifted down, they melted naturally in the vicinity, not a single one landing on the tea table.

Qin Fang stared at the snow-filled sky, slightly dazed.

’I was searching for traces of Master and the others, but I never expected to find something this significant.’

’When did that dry well become like that?’

’Was it already like that five years ago, when Master and the others went there?’

’And what in the world are the Three Religions up to?’

’They’re slaughtering people village by village, county by county, commandery by commandery...’

’Is it really just to follow their so-called doctrines?’

’Or...’

’Is there some deeper reason?’

His thoughts drifted, jumping from one topic to another.

Finally, his mind returned to the dry well from today...

"I’m still too weak... In just one short year, my master’s War Gang Avatar has already saved me twice..."

This time was especially perilous.

Even the War Gang Avatar almost failed to protect him.

’If the War Gang Avatar hadn’t decisively chosen to stay behind and cover the retreat...’

’Faced with that bizarre tentacle shooting out from the hand, I would have had no ability to resist at all!’

His brow gradually furrowed.

’My Divine Sense is still too weak... and the Path of Non-Birth is centered around Divine Sense.’

’Qinghe... died indirectly at the hands of Huoxin. If I want to avenge Qinghe, I will eventually have to face Huoxin directly.’

’Even... Master and the others... it’s possible they also died at Huoxin’s hands.’

’If I don’t cultivate my Divine Sense, I’m afraid I won’t even have the right to face him!’

Qin Fang’s gaze gradually solidified, and finally, a look of grim determination appeared in his eyes.

"Divine Sense, I must cultivate it!"

"Even if there are dangers, I have no other choice."

"Otherwise, my weakness is too obvious!"

This time, the moment that scream rang out, his mind went completely blank.

If it weren’t for his master’s War Gang Avatar, he would have been killed in an instant!

This showed just how terrifying a Divine Soul attack was.

...Even the War Gang Avatar clearly struggled to withstand the Divine Soul attack.

’As for the dangers...’

’As long as I’m not greedy and don’t advance rashly, the problem shouldn’t be too great.’

Qin Fang had a certain degree of confidence in his own willpower.

’As for Breaking Through...’

’...as long as the panel can record a Spiritual Sense Leaf Skill, I can rely entirely on proficiency to advance. For me, Breaking Through actually isn’t that dangerous.’

’...As long as I’m careful in my daily cultivation and don’t get greedy or advance rashly and injure my Divine Soul, it shouldn’t be a major issue.’

After letting out a long breath, Qin Fang looked up into the distance... His master and the others hadn’t returned yet. He didn’t know if they were fighting the thing in the dry well or if they were still observing.

...However, the Sect’s elders were not foolish or reckless people, and their Cultivation was much higher than Qin Fang’s. He figured nothing would go wrong.

Qin Fang simply stood up, cut through the air, and headed straight for the Scripture Pavilion.

...Once he made a decision, he acted on it.

When it came to execution, Qin Fang was top-notch!

"Senior Brother Qin."

"Greetings, Senior Brother."

When Qin Fang appeared outside the Scripture Pavilion, the eyes of the nearby disciples lit up, and they bowed respectfully.

...Qin Fang’s prestige in the Sect was now growing ever greater.

Especially after that one battle.

Many disciples had seen another side of him.

Mixed with their respect was now a greater amount of fear!

Qin Fang gave a slight nod and walked into the Scripture Pavilion.

Uncle-Master Zhou Xuanmo was, as always, in the Scripture Pavilion. He was reading a book, and when he looked up and saw Qin Fang, he paused for a moment before smiling and saying, "Linyuan."

Seeing Zhou Xuanmo, Qin Fang bowed respectfully. "Greetings, Uncle-Master."

"Good, good. What brings you to the Scripture Pavilion again today? If I remember correctly, you already have five Leaf Skills, don’t you? Are you choosing another?"

For one person to cultivate five Leaf Skills was, in fact, quite an exaggeration.

After all, most people cultivated three at most.

Body Technique, attack, and defense.

And they would only choose one of each type.

...Leaf Skills were too difficult to cultivate. Every single one required an immense amount of mental energy and resources to reach a certain level.

Add to that a Root Skill.

There was simply no spare energy to cultivate more.

But Qin Fang, besides his other four skills, had also added the two Leaf Skills of Investigation and Concealing Breath—already more than what most disciples, or even Elders, cultivated.

...Of course, his Talent for Leaf Skills was truly astonishing...

That was why Zhou Xuanmo had this question.

Hearing this, Qin Fang said, "Yes. I’m just taking a look. I haven’t decided on anything yet."

...He didn’t tell Zhou Xuanmo that he was planning to choose a Spiritual Sense Cultivation Method.

Otherwise, he would undoubtedly get another earful.

’Although... once I make my final choice, it’ll be known anyway.’

’But at least I can avoid the nagging for now.’

...Of course, he knew that even if Zhou Xuanmo nagged, it was for his own good.

But even so, Qin Fang really didn’t want to waste time on this matter.

"That’s fine too. Your Talent for Leaf Skills is astounding. If you didn’t cultivate a few more, it would indeed be a waste of your Talent."

Hearing Qin Fang’s words, Zhou Xuanmo sighed with emotion. "If I had your Talent for Leaf Skills... I’d be running over here every day to learn them."

"Every Leaf Skill has its own merits. The corresponding Pill and Powder Treasure Medicine can also provide a significant boost to one’s Physique. The more you cultivate, the stronger your Physique becomes, and it’s also possible to enhance the effects of the Leaf Skills... It’s just a pity that most people have mediocre Talent. They can’t even master one, let alone multiple."

Zhou Xuanmo shook his head and sighed. "Since you have this Talent, don’t waste it. Hmm, I recommend you choose another Body Protection Technique... Although Body Protection Techniques are a bit simpler than Body Technique Leaf Skills, it’s still very difficult to cultivate them to Minor Achievement or Great Success. If you cultivate one, perhaps you’ll be able to give another In-Depth Discussion."
