[You witnessed the battle between the Zhang Family and the Lei Family cultivators at Weiyang Mountain, two Foundation Establishnt cultivators clashing, and gained 0.1 points of Power of Ti.]
Another increase?
And it's 0.1 points!
Two Foundation Establishnt cultivators battling, and you can get 0.1 points of Power of Ti?
Then if more cultivators were to battle...
Zheng Yi excitedly looked at the flying sword and storage bag that belonged to Niu Liang before him, eyes full of excitent.
He could only express helplessness towards Niu Liang's death.
Getting involved in a conflict between two major families, and getting targeted by a late-stage Qi Cultivation cultivator, it was truly difficult to escape with his strength.
Luckily, he was quick to snatch up his storage bag.
Otherwise, the loss would have been significant.
With Niu Liang's death, the restriction on the storage bag also vanished.
Magical power surged, quickly opening the storage bag.
With a sweep of spiritual power, he marveled, "Wow, so much Spirit Sand!"
The storage bag contained quite a few things, but what surprised Zheng Yi the most was the large pile of Spirit Sand stacked together!
A sweep of spiritual power showed there were over eight hundred pieces!
This was the first ti Zheng Yi saw so much Spirit Sand in all these years.
Over eight hundred pieces of Spirit Sand, exchanged into low-grade Spirit Stones, would be eight pieces.
Counting the five pieces Niu Liang just exchanged for grenades and two extra Spirit Stones, Zheng Yi now had about fifteen low-grade Spirit Stones in hand!
If these Spirit Stones were made known, who knows how many Great Yu cultivators would go crazy over them.
"Tsk tsk tsk, this Niu Liang really was a Dharma Treasure!"
Zheng Yi said, "Pause the mirror world operation for now, as the mirror was taken by Madam Zhang, and it's clear the Zhang and Lei families are about to start full-scale war, possibly affecting the two major sects behind them."
"If I go now, I might take advantage of the chaos... but it's not the ti yet!"
"Let's improve my strength first..."
Having decided, Zheng Yi once again entered a closed-door training state.
He arranged a large amount of Spirit Sand on the Spirit Gathering Array he had already set up in the quiet room and began cultivation.
The Great Five Elents Life and Death Scripture!
Thread by thread of Spiritual Qi, it entered deep into his body along the acupoints, beginning to circulate according to the Great Five Elents Life and Death Scripture, gradually transforming into magical power, and then condensing at the Dantian.
Perhaps because of the Spirit Sand, the speed at which magical power condensed during this cultivation was more than twice as fast as before!
Suppressing the surprise in his heart, Zheng Yi continued to cultivate calmly.
A little over an hour later, the Spiritual Qi from the ten pieces of Spirit Sand arranged at the four corners of the Spirit Gathering Array had been completely consud.
Zheng Yi thought for a mont, then switched to five low-grade Spirit Stones, continuing his cultivation.
One day, two days, three days... until seven days later.
A wave of gray Spiritual Qi emanated from his body, and he suddenly opened his eyes.
The fifth magical power vortex was forming slowly at the Dantian.
The Fifth-layer Qi Cultivation, achieved!
Another month passed.
In the quiet room, stone debris surrounded the Spirit Gathering Array; these were fragnts of stones depleted of Spiritual Qi, of no use now.
Over eight hundred pieces of Spirit Sand and seven low-grade Spirit Stones had all been consud in this month's cultivation.
His cultivation also reached the peak of Fifth-layer Qi Cultivation, just a step away from entering the Sixth-layer Qi Cultivation!
But...
Half a month ago, Zheng Yi stopped cultivating the Great Five Elents Life and Death Scripture.
He switched to cultivating the White Lotus Scripture!
In the sea of consciousness, magical power gathered and surged continuously.
A virtual, transparent lotus-shaped thread was slowly forming; this was the sign of successfully cultivating the White Lotus Scripture.
Once a white lotus ford in the sea of consciousness, he could condense his spiritual power into divine sense, allowing him to perform most of the Spiritual Secret Techniques recorded in the White Lotus Scripture.
The simplest being Divine Strike!
But just as it was about to form, the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror, which had been floating in the center of the sea of consciousness, suddenly emitted a fluctuation, instantly shattering it without leaving a trace.
"This..."
After a few breaths, Zheng Yi suddenly opened his eyes, exclaiming in surprise, "What is the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror doing, how..."
He instinctively focused on the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror, but saw that it had no reaction, just quietly floating in the air.
The mirror surface, too, was shrouded in chaotic mist, with no words appearing.
"How..."
Zheng Yi suddenly realized sothing, exclaiming with joy, "Wait, this feeling... divine sense!"
At this mont, he could clearly feel every speck of dust in the quiet room, incredibly clear.
Even, his spiritual power seed to have transford into a pair of large hands, clearly touching everything in the quiet room.
His whole being seed like a 360-degree radar with no blind spots.
"Divine Sense! This is definitely divine sense!"
"The lotus was shattered by the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror, and I actually achieved it?"
"What on earth is going on?"
Zheng Yi cald down to think and quickly guessed sothing.
His spiritual power had long beco incredibly resilient and then strong due to the presence of the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror.
The existence of the White Lotus Scripture was rely the final push.
It allowed his powerful spiritual power to transform into divine sense.
From now on, he could use spiritual power to scan the surrounding environnt, accomplishing things only Foundation Establishnt stage cultivators could do.
With a thought, his divine sense imdiately surged out, centering on his body.
Quiet room, underground palace, Baiyu City, the square, Jiaotai Hall, the Imperial Garden, the harem...
Every structure and every figure appeared in his scan.
He saw the Shadow Guards stationed around Baiyu City at the center.
He saw the loyal Imperial Guards patrolling around Baiyu City.
He also saw a few palace maids and eunuchs slacking off and napping.
As his Divine Thought continued to spread, nurous figures of the harem appeared before his 'eyes' as well.
The Empress Lu Lin'er playing with Prince Ji'er.
Yao'er holding the sleeping Yuyao, her face full of worry.
A few breaths later, his expression suddenly beca strange.
Lanling Palace.
His Divine Thought continued to sweep over, almost covering the entire Imperial Palace.
Within the palace, Cui Xiabing, Yue Chan, Zhuang Yuheng, Jie'er, Yu'er, and Yang Liuqing, the cultivators, showed no reaction, either resting or cultivating.
His Divine Thought continued scanning, and in a quiet chamber within Jiaofang Hall, Xuan Jizi, who was in the midst of holding her breath and concentrating on cultivation, suddenly opened her eyes.
It was as if a gaze had just been fixed on her!
Suspicion filled her eyes as she carefully sensed her surroundings, even opening the door to look outside.
But outside, the night sky was deep and starry, with no sign of anyone.
"Strange... why do I feel like I'm being watched?"
"This is the Imperial Palace, how could anyone..."
She shook her head, feeling she might be a bit paranoid.
"Maybe I'm just tired from refining artifacts these days, but the refined gold..."
She excitedly looked at the flying sword in her hand, now infused with a thread of refined gold, which had directly increased the quality of her flying sword by a small grade.
A masterpiece among top-grade magical artifacts!
And more than half of the refined gold remained.
If she could integrate all this refined gold, her flying sword might upgrade to a top-grade magical artifact!
At this mont, Zheng Yi had already retracted his Divine Thought, nodding with satisfaction.
Condensing Divine Thought, henceforth, mortals would have no secrets before him!
And perhaps due to the presence of the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror, the range of his initially condensed Divine Thought could cover the entire Imperial Palace.
This range and area could rival that of an early-stage Foundation Establishnt cultivator.
He let out a long breath, opened the door, and walked out.
"Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty!"
The Shadow Guards stationed outside quickly woke up and respectfully knelt down to salute.
"No need for formalities."
Zheng Yi waved his hand and said, "Go inside and clean up a bit, don't move anything."
"Understood!"
After assigning the task, Zheng Yi thought for a mont, then ordered his carriage to take him directly to Lanling Palace.
Consort Lan was fun, so of course, he had to console her.
Lanling Palace.
"Sigh, just an ordinary prince, I just hope to have so support in the future..."
"Creak~" The door suddenly opened as the two won were speaking.
Consort Lan was shocked, grabbing the blanket to cover herself, and coldly said, "Which servant is it? Didn't I say that no one..."
"Your, Your Majesty!!!"
Consort Lan was shocked to see Zheng Yi walking in from outside, scrambling to get out of bed to salute.
And Noble Lady Dong, hiding under the covers, was even more frightened upon hearing it was His Majesty, and in her panic, she rolled off the bed.
But even so, they hurriedly knelt on the ground.
"Y-Your Majesty, greetings, Your Majesty, Your, Your Concubine... please forgive us..."
The two won were filled with fear.
Zheng Yi, however, stepped forward and pulled the two won up.
"Forgive you? For what?"
"Your Majesty...?"
"Hahaha, this pleases greatly!"
Afterward, he returned to Baiyu City, indulging in the wine pool and at forest, and summoning several consorts, feeling even more comfortable.
At this ti, Cui Xiabing and Zhuang Yuheng jointly ca to him.
"Your Majesty."
Zhuang Yuheng was the first to speak, "With the help of Sister Cui and senior Xuan Jizi, I have drawn one hundred Spirit Testing Talismans, and Sister Cui's Princess Lingxiao is now five years old. Can we test her Spirit Root?"
Zheng Yi asked curiously, "Xiabing, haven't you tested Lingxiao's Spirit Root?"
Cui Xiabing shook her head with concern, "No, no, Your Concubine dared not..."
Zheng Yi nodded, understanding that all parents were like this, always worrying about their children.
Worried they might lack a Spirit Root, living only a short few decades.
But also scared that they might have a Spirit Root, and henceforth have to work hard for cultivation.
After thinking for a mont, Zheng Yi said, "I rember when Elder Celestial Master Zhao Xizheng asured the Spirit Root, he didn't use a Spirit Testing Talisman. Do the Two Beloved Consorts know this thod?"
"Of course."
Zhuang Yuheng nodded, "Last ti, Senior Brother Zhao Suling brought this thod to , but it can only detect if a child has a Spirit Root, not what type. Only the Spirit Testing Talisman can determine that."
Zheng Yi asked, "Do all the other beloved consorts know how?"
"Yes, it's simple."
"Very well."
Zheng Yi decided, "I plan to hold a Spirit Testing Ceremony. All children in the Capital City aged five to sixteen can co to the Imperial Palace for testing."
"If anyone possesses a Spirit Root, I will spare no effort to nurture them!"
