Chapter 603: Chapter 348: Discovery
A young man sat in a carriage, which was part of a caravan. He was controlling the horses that pulled the carriage.
The youth’s expression was serene, his eyes possessing a steadiness that belied his age.
His na was Weng Yi, a new na he had assud, or rather, a na he had arranged for this body.
He was the identity assud by Patriarch Weng Zhao after body seizing. He did not wish to stay within the territory of the Righteous Path.
Whenever he thought of the person pursuing him, and that exceedingly strange thod of tracking, he felt a chilling terror.
In recent days, he was constantly worried, fearing that suddenly a refined corpse would attack him, or that a white lotus would appear beside him, taking his life away.
This prevented him from focusing on his cultivation, which was unimaginable for his forr self as a Nascent Soul Ancestor.
He understood that his past deeds had led to the formation of an inner demon, which had very little influence on him at his current state.
But to enhance his strength, he needed to find ways to weaken the influence of this inner demon and consider how to eliminate it after his strength had increased.
Based on so intelligence left by the Skywalk Trading Company, he thought of a thod to leave the Righteous Path’s domain.
He used so Spirit Stones, and guided by the intelligence, he found an interdiary related to the Ju Chang Shop in Jieshan City within the Ten Thousand Great Mountains.
This ti, Weng Yi was transporting a batch of goods to Jieshan City as a clerk of the Ju Chang Shop, a way to leave the Righteous Path’s control.
And in the Cultivation World, a comrcial hub like Jieshan City was, in fact, the safest place.
Once his strength recovered sowhat, he could sneak into the Ten Thousand Great Mountains, which held abundant resources that could be taken freely with sufficient power.
The carriage passed through the Jieshan Mountain Pass without any trouble at all.
After passing the Jieshan Mountain Pass and not far from Jieshan City, Weng Yi felt his inner demon weakening.
It seed he had chosen correctly. Leaving the domain of the Righteous Path, even the powerful cultivators from the Qianye Temple could not venture deep into the Ten Thousand Great Mountains to find him.
Who would care about a re clerk of a shop, let alone suspect that this humble clerk was a reborn Nascent Soul Ancestor.
Li Yuan Ba looked at Yue Xing in front of him, who was reporting the events of the past few days.
His eyes twinkled with amusent, giving Yue Xing the continual illusion of being seen through.
In fact, Yue Xing was indeed seen through, but Li Yuan Ba was too lazy to delve into such minor matters with Yue Xing.
After the original Li Shiming learned “Telepathy”, the alter ego Li Yuan Ba shared this divine skill, and even a copy of the underlying pattern was made in the soul.
Unfortunately, the “Nanming Leaving Fire” divine skill wasn’t sharable, as Li Yuan Ba didn’t possess a fire attribute Golden Core. The “Nanming Leaving Fire” had no place of existence, not to ntion the fire kind of this attack skill couldn’t be obtained through sharing like the divine skill patterns could.
Li Yuan Ba was exactly using “Telepathy” to perceive Yue Xing’s thoughts.
Of course, from the experints of the original Li Shiming and the alter ego Li Yuan Ba, “Telepathy” wasn’t omnipotent.
To use “Telepathy” to probe others’ thoughts, aside from requiring the subject’s spirit to be weaker than that of the practitioner, “Telepathy” could only grasp what the person was currently thinking about. It wasn’t possible to probe thoughts not being actively considered.
Like now. Due to Yue Xing reporting on his work, he inevitably thought of his own manipulations in the work, and through “Telepathy”, Li Yuan Ba beca aware of these affairs.
Yue Xing was rather decent. He didn’t take too much advantage, and considering his competent abilities, if Yue Xing were absent, would Li Yuan Ba need to manage things himself?
“There’s been a lot going on recently, keep a close eye on the affairs of the town!” Li Yuan Ba instructed briefly before waving his hand, signaling Yue Xing to leave.
After Yue Xing left, he sat quietly, then changed into ordinary clothes and left the Guardian Mansion.
Since the assassination attempt by the Qianye Temple, he never took off the “Mind Hoop”; it was always on his head.
This doubled his spiritual power, allowing him to scan the entire area of Jieshan Town with his Divine Thought by just walking around the town.
This was also one of his ways to beco accustod to “Telepathy,” as his original self, Li Shiming, didn’t have as much ti to move around in crowded places, leaving it to his alter ego to do so.
Without his lifebound artifact IBMz15, when he activated “Telepathy” while walking in the town, countless thoughts entered his mind, making him very uncomfortable.
He was literally processing a large volu of thoughts with one brain, but fortunately, although there were many people in the town, it hadn’t reached an unbearable level for him.
Moreover, it was a good opportunity to hone his own abilities. If applied well, “Telepathy” was an extrely practical ability.
Since Jieshan City was a comrcial city, the thoughts he heard were mostly of deceit and trickery. The term “scher” fit well after he gained the ability to hear thoughts, confirming his perception even more.
He felt like a high and mighty deity, listening to the actions of mortals, because he was the most powerful cultivator there. He found his attitude had changed; in his eyes, whether they were commoners or cultivators, they were all insignificant as ants.
He shook his head. “Telepathy” had caused him to feel as if he were a deity himself.
If others knew he mastered “Telepathy”, he probably wouldn’t have any friends left. Who would dare associate with a cultivator who mastered “Telepathy”? That would be like laying bare all of their secrets.
Every cultivator has secrets. No cultivator would willingly share their secrets with others.
