However, turning it into a true secret room isn’t aningless—it not only can deceive the eyes and ears but also serve to create confusion at tis. At the very least, it has the function of isolating from prying eyes.
As a secret disciple of the Ancestral Hall Elders, isn’t it normal to have a practice chamber at ho? If it’s already known that he’s in the chamber ditating, forcibly breaking in would not be secretive—it would be blatant action.
He Kao specially modified this secret room. Originally, it only had one concealed door; later, he opened another door by piercing through the wall. In other words, he could enter from this room and exit from that room. It seems like a trivial trick with little significance.
But due to the special material, the situation inside cannot be detected from the outside with divine sense. To know if he is inside and what he’s doing, one must physically find and open the concealed door.
He Kao also set up so small surveillance. If soone secretly opened the concealed door of the secret room, he would discover it.
Even knowing no one is secretly surveilling, He Kao still entered the secret room, as if to sit for cultivation. After closing the concealed door, he instantly appeared at the entrance of Gao Xue’e’s house.
There was no surveillance here, and he wasn’t discovered by anyone, entering the house normally without a hint.
He Kao never told Gao Xue’e he was Hidden Moth, nor had she seen him display Moth Divine Techniques, but she’s long been accustod to his ghostly comings and goings... After all, a high-ranking person has their skills!
He Kao resisted the urge to practice swordplay at Floating Colors Grotto Heaven, yet ca to Bishu Renjia District instead; ultimately, his willpower was lacking.
This apartnt was bought by Gao Xue’e. A year ago she ntioned wanting to rent it out and move to Sesa Apartnt herself. The reason was simple—she was once kidnapped by criminals at ho, leaving a lingering fear.
He Kao didn’t object at the ti because he understood the impact of mindset on cultivation. But later Gao Xue’e didn’t ntion it again, which was a better result as it ant she had resolved her own ntal knot.
When the two t, of course, there was sothing between them, sothing not to be shared with outsiders. Like the sun shining on a snowy plain, the intervals of lting snow shared so private words that no one else heard.
But Gao Xue’e had other matters to discuss with He Kao today, and not about inquiring into i Guyu’s background. He Kao had already reminded her, even in private settings, she hadn’t ntioned that person.
Today felt particularly special, though each ti felt more special than the last. Yet today, He Kao felt Gao Xue’e seed sowhat different, indescribably so.
"Xiao Kao, have you noticed anything different about today?"
"Your ice skin jade bone, more and more..." He Kao suddenly halted here, straightening his body with surprise, "President E, your technique cultivation has entered the entry level, achieving Tier One cultivation!"
"President E" was originally just a nickna. Gao Xue’e didn’t like others calling her that. But in the company, it was a customary call from top to bottom, and she didn’t bother to argue about it.
Strangely enough, Gao Xue’e especially liked He Kao calling her that. In their private setting, even without any intimate actions, as long as He Kao gently called her President E a few tis, it would slightly lt her.
Gao Xue’e softly replied "Hmm," with alluring eyes, clearly emotional again, or still in emotions.
Today indeed is a special day. He Kao received the Sword Control Skill inheritance, soone broke through the fourth level of the Hidden Moth Skill, and Gao Xue began cultivating Hidden E Technique’s entry-level. It seems fate is not exclusive to one person.
Since Gao Xue’e has beco a Tier One Stalker of Hidden Moth Sect, many things must be particularly noted.
He Kao sternly instructed Gao Xue’e, at this stage, it’s crucial that secret technique cultivation must not have a day’s laxity, or prior efforts would be wasted... At least within a month, she should try to go into seclusion, avoiding all external stimuli.
Typically, a Tier One cultivator’s senses beco increasingly sharp, causing bodily discomfort. External stimuli also intensify, possibly affecting the mind and emotions.
To other sorcerers, being mindful of various precautions and slowly grinding will ultimately adapt the body and mind to these changes. The Magic Sect has long matured coping experiences, and seniors will give instructions.
Restraint is necessary, but excessive suppression should be avoided, otherwise problems may arise. Yet indulging in certain desires, like lust, is absolutely not allowed.
After He Kao’s caution, he went for a thorough session, leaving Gao Xue’e completely pliant. She felt every inch of her was relaxed, even her arms felt heavy to lift, then He Kao reminded her again.
He Kao advised her to finish up work in the next few days before the year-end, take extra days off during the Spring Festival, any form of leave like sick leave or personal leave, and try to go into closed-door cultivation, getting through this special adaptation period.
In the past, Gao Xue’e’s image in the company was a typical workaholic, rarely sick and hardly ever took long leaves.
But she knows how to weigh priorities, following He Kao’s advice. He Kao comforted her, treating it like certain special periods from years ago when confined at ho.
The exceptional aspect of Hidden E Technique is that after breaking through Tier One, one must break through Tier Two in the shortest possible ti.
The longer the ti drags, the less likely further gate-breaking becos, then the best choice is not to continue cultivating, thus the Foundation Establishnt before entry is extrely important, and Gao Xue’e has quite a solid foundation.
He Kao hasn’t told Gao Xue’e the secret technique she cultivates is Hidden E Technique, only said it’s so sort of "secret technique," even if she accidentally talked about it, no secrets would be leaked.
He Kao also hasn’t told Gao Xue’e she must break through to Tier Two cultivation within a month. As long as she doesn’t slack in cultivation, it would be better to go with the flow, without increasing unnecessary ntal pressure.
He Kao imparted to her the Fundantal Heart thod for Hidden Moth Technique from Tier One to Tier Two. Regarding applied techniques, aside from the sect’s Stealth Skill, he also taught her the Heart Plate Sect’s Breath Concealnt Technique, to practice in leisure ti, weakening presence and avoiding exposing cultivation.
Additionally, He Kao taught her the Observing Body Skill technique and a basic applied technique of the Observing Body Sect.
Observing Body Skill can be skipped from cultivation, applied techniques can be practiced later when there’s spare ti, so even if faced with an urgent situation, she can claim she’s cultivating Observing Body Skill.
Given Gao Xue’e leads a departnt, particularly so employees’ connections with Lin Qingshuang, receiving Observing Body Skill inheritance is entirely explainable... Truly thoughtful, He Kao indeed has many ideas!
He Kao left in the early morning hours. Gao Xue’e didn’t rest all night. There was too much to digest and prepare, so she rarely took half a day off before going to work in the afternoon.
