First Sensing

Both Both Ruan Ci hurriedly withdrew her magic power and stood at the bow of the boat to look. Sure enough, the magic boat had already headed from Sansu Marsh to the Nine Kingdoms in the south. The wind and clouds in the sky seemed to be affected by the fluctuation of magic power in the boat, and a heavy rain was about to fall. She hurriedly waved her sleeves to disperse the rain clouds and sighed, "It was just for fun. This world is really fragile. If even Jin Dan cultivators are like this, what about Grotto-Heaven fighting?"

Qin Fengyu laughed, "That's exactly it. If it were in other Zhou Heavens, Grotto-Heaven fighting would all be in the void outside the sky, otherwise which great heaven could withstand such a beating? If a real fire is started, it would be good if the continent sinks. There are also those who dig up the earth veins, shake the foundation, and destroy the entire great heaven. Even Nascent Soul True Persons, when they have disputes with each other, mostly send avatars to compete, or play chess in that field of momentum. If they really want to make a move, in densely populated places, they will never make a sudden move. You must know that Jin Dan is enough to affect a place, and Nascent Soul can affect a country. Mortal kingdoms are mostly protected by sects. Unless they want to go to war with the sect and pull up the foundation, they will not dare to risk the world's condemnation and provide an excuse for other sects to conquer."

After Foundation Establishment, Both Both Ruan Ci had not actually been to many densely populated places, at most staying in cultivator markets. The houses there all had restrictions, and Foundation Establishment cultivator fighting, spiritual energy at most affected a few miles, so she naturally didn't know to be cautious. At this time, seeing her own spiritual energy overflowing and triggering celestial phenomena, she finally had a real sense of her breakthrough in the great realm. Although she felt a little constrained, she had no choice. She hurriedly restrained her aura and said uneasily, "Are there people living in Zhuangshan? You go and see if the crops have been destroyed. If so, compensate with some spirit jade, don't let them work in vain for a year."

Moon-Catching Cliff was short of manpower. This time, Tianlu and Qin Fengyu brought some subordinates from the Grand Void Heaven, so they naturally obeyed Both Both Ruan Ci. When they were about to go, they were called back by Both Both Ruan Ci, who instructed, "You handle things carefully. If there is any damage, ask the owner of the land and compensate them one by one. Don't be greedy for convenience and hand it all over to the village chief."

The two mermaids agreed, riding the clouds and mist to the south bank. There was a mountain range there, majestic and long. Looking at its terrain, it was the source of a dragon vein. Vaguely, one could sense a mortal village at the foot of the mountain near the marsh. Qin Fengyu said, "This is the dragon vein of Zhuang Kingdom. Among the Nine Kingdoms, there are nine mountains and nine waters, and nine dragon veins all come from Sansu Marsh, supporting Zijing Mountain. Zijing Mountain is the gathering place of the southeast dragon veins. We have to pass through two dragon veins from Zhuangshan before we reach Anguo. If we walk forward for a few more days, we can pass by the Shangqing market on the way."

All sects have mortal kingdoms attached to them to some extent, and most disciples come from these kingdoms. But this Central Continent is a place of great danger. Mortals are like straw dogs in front of cultivators, left to be manipulated. Therefore, most mortal kingdoms are protected and hidden by large arrays set up by sects, separated from cultivators, and they do not occupy much land. Like the Shangqing Nine Kingdoms, a mortal kingdom that occupies land comparable to Baoyun Sea and has nine dragon veins, I think it is rare in the Central Continent.

It is no wonder that although the Nine Kingdoms are mortal kingdoms, they have dealings with various sects around them, and there are many extraordinary powers and residents such as cultivator families, mining and planting medicine, and merchant fleets. This is the luxury of the three pillars of the sky. Just the noble families in the Nine Kingdoms can exchange precious medicines for Foundation Establishment cultivators. In terms of vision, how can other continents, or even other kingdoms in the Central Continent, compare? The two mermaids went for several hours and returned to the boat, saying, "Miss, catching the cat did indeed cause wind and rain, blowing down a piece of spirit rice. I fear there will be no harvest for these ten years. However, the residents in the village are very clever. They didn't dare to accept the spirit jade we brought, but only asked the little one to bring the few children in the village with the most endowment. If the Miss likes any of them, she can accept them as disciples to be boys, which is their good fortune. If they can't catch the noble's eyes, they are also willing and dare not have any resentment."

Both Both Ruan Ci didn't know that spirit rice was not harvested once a year, and was very curious for a moment, laughing, "Do they only grow spirit rice? What do they eat themselves? Don't these be affected by the spiritual energy we fluctuated?"

Qin Fengyu said, "If the Little Martial Uncle is interested, it would be good to go and see. After Jin Dan, one should travel more, increase knowledge, and read the joys and sorrows of the world. Let's look at those children first."

As she said this, she ordered the mermaids to bring people in. There were three boys and one girl, led by the elders in the village. They were all smart and full of energy. Although they were seven or eight years old, two of them had already opened their meridians on their own, just like Ruan Qian at the time. If it were about the thickness of their endowment, they really didn't lose to the people of Song Kingdom who drank jade. She couldn't help but nod and laugh, "No wonder when we were in South Zhuzhou, Senior Brother Jun and the others looked down on us South Barbarians."

She also said, "With such good talent, why haven't they been spotted by any sect?"

The villager who brought the children already had a mid-stage Qi Condensation cultivation. Hearing this, he hurriedly said, "In the Nine Kingdoms, such children with such endowment are not rare. Our village is relatively remote, and even if there are some smart children, it is very difficult to send them to the capital to wait for selection. Besides, in these hundred years, I heard that there are fewer and fewer sects coming to accept disciples. Our village hasn't had any immortal fate for a hundred years, until today we met the immortal masters."

Both Both Ruan Ci asked, "If so, how did your cultivation come about?"

The villager said, "It was passed down in the village."

Both Both Ruan Ci was slightly surprised. Qin Fengyu said, "They live by the water, and there are many old monsters in Sansu Marsh. Although they have been warned, they dare not hurt people easily. But if they don't have cultivation, they can't even resist the wind and rain, let alone manage the spirit rice. Therefore, the sect also passed down some rough cultivation methods, and some body cultivation techniques. They plant spirit rice all year round and are nourished by spiritual energy. Those who can sense Dao rhyme cultivate cultivation methods, and those who cannot sense Dao rhyme cultivate body techniques. Most of them can live to be over a hundred years old. Over thousands of years, almost every village has some unique mental methods, which is also quite interesting."

She added, "That spirit rice is their main business, and it is planted in places with rich spiritual energy in the mountains. They don't have so much spirit jade to set up magic arrays. They grow their own food in the backyard of the village, which is guarded by restrictions and will not be damaged."

Both Both Ruan Ci found what she said more and more interesting. Seeing that the children were all smart and interesting, she said, "Since this is the case, wouldn't it be good to live in the village? In the immortal mansion, it is not everyone who can open their meridians. If you are unlucky and meet the master in seclusion when you go back, you might not be able to meet him until you die. According to the rules of the sect, if the master doesn't speak, the sect members have no opportunity. Even so, are you willing to go back with us? The rules of the immortal sect are strict, and it is not as carefree as at home."

Those children were young and naturally missed home. Hearing this, the boys couldn't help but look hesitant. The girl bit her lower lip, hesitated again and again, but still knelt down and said, "Even so, my heart is willing."

When asked why, the girl looked at the sky and said with a trace of longing, "I have grown up by Sansu Marsh since I was a child. I heard that thousands and tens of thousands of miles outside Sansu Marsh, there is a huge immortal mountain called Zijing Mountain, which is the residence of all the gods in the world. I... I want to go and see."

Her tone was innocent. Both Both Ruan Ci and Qin Fengyu looked at each other and smiled, "Well, I don't want to accept disciples, but the sect is indeed short of people to serve. If you want to see Zijing Mountain, then follow me and be a maid to hold the cup, which is also fine."

She also asked the mermaid how much the damaged spirit rice was worth, and said, "Then give them half, so they don't have to live a tight life."

Because the girl came from Zhuang Kingdom, she gave her a name at will, calling her Zhuang Ji. Zhuang Ji was quite sensible. After bowing, she stood behind Both Both Ruan Ci. Both Both Ruan Ci thought she was cute, let her go to the back of the boat to play, and said, "Come and serve me after you are fifteen."

It is said that opening meridians also depends on opportunity, but she has nothing to do with raising a mortal. In the end, she still has to bestow cultivation methods, but she still needs to learn the rules. Both Both Ruan Ci finished arranging these, quite satisfied, and showed off to Qin Fengyu, "Yu Niang, look, do I look like a big girl?"

Qin Fengyu laughed, "Little Martial Uncle is already over four hundred years old, isn't she a big girl?"

The villager was still okay, but the children were very surprised to hear that Both Both Ruan Ci was over four hundred years old, staring at Both Both Ruan Ci. Both Both Ruan Ci laughed, "That depends on who you compare with. Compared with you, I am naturally old, but compared with you, I am still raw."

She sighed again, "It turns out that being an immortal master and seeing mortals is such a feeling. Thinking back when I was a mortal, the first cultivator I saw was also a Jin Dan cultivation. He said a sentence, and I was very surprised at the time. He said he had been to Song Kingdom two thousand years ago..."

Her voice stopped suddenly, as if she had accidentally poked through a thin film. Her heart shook slightly, and she was secretly shocked, thinking, "He had been to Song Kingdom two thousand years ago, and he was in the mid-stage of Jin Dan three hundred years later. Liu Jizi, a disciple of a flourishing sect, how can he reincarnate and cultivate again? I... how did I only realize something was wrong until now? Is this also his divine power? And three hundred years is mid-stage Jin Dan, faster than me. He... who exactly is he? And what is his relationship with Sister Xie?"

Because she thought of Liu Jizi, a line of causality suddenly appeared before her eyes. Causality touched, and vaguely, as if she could probe some information about the other party, but it was also very blurry. She only felt that he was still in the Jin Dan stage, and he was not far from her, at least within one continent. This was the special ability that Both Both Ruan Ci possessed when she reached the twelfth layer of Foundation Establishment and could touch causality. At this time, she had not yet cultivated the "Supreme Sensing Chapter," but she could sense a little by chance. If the cultivation method was successful, and she knew the other party's true name, I fear she could be several times clearer.

It is no wonder that cultivators of various sects talk about the sensing technique. If two people are enemies, and you know nothing about the enemy, but the enemy can sense your position, how can such a cultivator fight him? Both Both Ruan Ci was even more curious about the "Supreme Sensing Chapter." If drawing the sword was not also urgent, and she wanted to find He Tong, she really wanted to return to the mountain to close the door, cultivate the sensing chapter to a small success, and then deal with others. I think it would be very interesting. Suddenly she thought, "Liu Jizi, a Jin Dan cultivator, how did he come to the Central Continent? Could it be that he came with Shuangcheng? This person will definitely meet me again in the future."

She didn't hate Liu Jizi as much as Ruan Rong did. The three Ruan children had different responsibilities for the hatred of the Blood Night extermination. Ruan Rong hated Liu Jizi, and Ruan Qian hated the three sects. Both Both Ruan Ci's vision at the time was higher than her brother and sister, and she only felt that this matter might not end with the three sects. There must be a mastermind behind the scenes. If she only cared about the three sects, it would be inevitable to bully the soft and fear the hard.

And Liu Jizi, in that world at the time, was just serving his own master. Now thinking that he still had involvement with her, Both Both Ruan Ci was also calm. I don't know how, but a line of causality appeared faintly before her eyes, connecting to another place. A sense arose in her heart, knowing that the other end was her sister Ruan Rong. And Ruan Rong's aura was a bit weak at this time. I think she had just recovered from the tribulation force, but there were signs of a breakthrough. The three of them had causality connected to each other. The line connecting Ruan Rong and Liu Jizi was thicker than the connection between Both Both Ruan Ci and Liu Jizi, and even stronger than the connection between Ruan Rong and Both Both Ruan Ci.

Both Both Ruan Ci was puzzled, almost thinking she had misread it, and thought to herself, "Sister and I are the relationship between a substitute and the main body. Liu Jizi... Liu Jizi saving my sister is true, but is the causality so thick? Is it because my cultivation is not enough, and I misread it?"

She still wanted to look at the color of causality, but a burst of annoyance and weakness suddenly hit her heart. She hurriedly looked up, but saw that the divine sense sea in the inner landscape was a bit dry. Only then did she know that sensing causality consumed so much divine sense. It seems that she must have the assistance of the "Supreme Sensing Chapter" to save divine sense and sense more carefully.

Originally, she wanted to see Ruan Qian again, but at this time she dismissed the idea, thinking, "I don't know when I can handle the Great Dao and drawing the sword, and return to the mountain to continue seclusion. Alas, I used to think seclusion was boring, but now I think it is endless fun. It is really not entering the realm, not knowing the wonder. It is better to find He Tong quickly."

Although she didn't want to check causality again, the sensing realm that was touched by chance had not completely faded. At this time, she thought of drawing the sword twice, and her heart moved. Vaguely, she had a feeling that He Tong was indeed related to drawing the sword, and could also help her comprehend her own Great Dao. Looking at the people in the boat, except for the three boys and the villagers, the others could vaguely see a common line of causality, all leading to some unknown end, the same as He Tong. Not far away, there was a blurry light spot, the aura was a bit familiar, as if it was Dong Shuangcheng's energy. There was also such a line extending. Both Both Ruan Ci thought to herself, "Is this... the causality of drawing the sword?"

That causality was named by her, and a familiar aura flashed, as if it was truly related to the Donghua Sword. But at this time, Both Both Ruan Ci's magic power surged, and she fell completely from that mysterious realm. She was dazed for a long time, before laughing at Qin Fengyu, who was full of curiosity, "It turns out that the whim and causality sensing are so mysterious..."

Originally, she wanted to go to the village in Zhuangshan to see, but with such inspiration, how could she have any thoughts? She ordered the mermaids to send the villagers back, and didn't let them temporarily take Zhuang Ji back to raise her. She took everyone to the Shangqing market to find Dong Shuangcheng, who was involved in the causality.

Ah ah, I think I like the feeling of different divine powers in each realm. It is the sensing in the Legend of Shushan Swordsmen, good or bad, every time I see it, I feel it is very mysterious!

ps Mom and Dad went back to their hometown for the Winter Solstice. I've been eating alone all week, and I don't know what to eat at all... Burger King or KFC...
