Chapter 1110 - 369: Choice 2

"Interesting little fellow, it seems you have quite a few secrets."

Jing Xinyue said with a smile.

She didn’t have any other thoughts; she just found it purely interesting.

Anyone who can cultivate beyond the Golden Core level without a strong background force usually has secrets.

However.

At Jing Xinyue’s level, ordinary secrets no longer suffice to attract her attention.

Moreover, being in the Vermilion Bird Sect, one of the four top sects, as a Divinity Transformation expert, the sect’s numerous magical treasures, secret realms, heavenly and earthly treasures, have unimaginably abundant resources.

Jing Xinyue had no need to covet the secrets of such juniors.

Compared to the secrets possibly hidden by Lin Zheyu.

What Jing Xinyue values more is Lin Zheyu’s awakened, powerful perception divine technique.

The array she just deployed was called the Three Lives of Destiny Heartbreak Array.

This array is a powerful illusion array used within the Vermilion Bird Sect for disciples to refine the heart amidst worldly matters.

Even cultivators who have just entered the Divinity Transformation would have a hard time not being disturbed by the array and would not pass through it unaffected.

Only those with perception strong enough to see the ever-changing rules and textures in the array can find the safe path within it.

Only then can one pass through it as effortlessly and gracefully as Lin Zheyu.

"With my powerful divine sense, I can’t even dispel the mist he’s cloaked in to see the scope of his full strength."

"His strength is formidable, likely not weaker than cultivators at the late stage of the Golden Elixir."

"As long as he doesn’t die young, this child’s future accomplishments will not fall short of Qin Hu, and he might indeed pave a new path where the Martial Dao road ends."

Jing Xinyue thought to herself.

She pondered, analyzing the aura on Lin Zheyu that seemed like an enshrouding mist:

"That aura should be the aura of the Heaven-Deceiving Array."

"Has he cultivated a similar body-refining cultivation technique that incorporates the remnants of the Heaven-Deceiving Array into his body?"

Jing Xinyue murmured softly.

She actually couldn’t fully see through the strength within Lin Zheyu, but could vaguely perceive the dense aura of the Tao within Lin Zheyu’s body.

No matter the cultivation system.

As long as one’s strength breaks through to the Golden Core or a similar Shackled Realm, the body will contain a special destiny aura.

This aura, unlike strength, is difficult to conceal with cultivation techniques and secret techniques.

It is by judging the richness of this aura in Lin Zheyu’s body that Jing Xinyue roughly evaluates Lin Zheyu’s strength realm.

...

Leaving the hall, Lin Zheyu returned to his courtyard.

Facing Jing Xinyue just now, the psychological pressure was considerable; after all, she is a Divinity Transformation expert.

"In the future, if possible, avoid appearing in front of these Divinity Transformation experts."

Lin Zheyu said to himself.

Though Jing Xinyue had no ill intentions towards him, there is no certainty that others won’t.

He glanced at the data in his consciousness.

It’s time to optimize and upgrade the Heavenly Deceit Skill.

He has been in the demon cavern for so long, that his achievements in array restrictions have advanced rapidly, gaining substantial insights from the array restrictions external to the temporal node.

Originally.

He also planned to wait until his accumulation in the divine pattern was sufficient to optimize the structure before enhancing the Heavenly Deceit Skill.

But now it seems necessary to enhance the Heavenly Deceit Skill first.

"An unknown crisis is about to arrive...

Integrating the insights gained from array restrictions into the Heavenly Deceit Skill to enhance its effects would also increase survival capability amidst the crisis."

Lin Zheyu said to himself.

He activated the courtyard protection array, took out the array disc, and set up another layer of the array in the courtyard.

Lin Zheyu slightly moved his thoughts and entered the void within the Primordial Pool.

Looking at the increasingly dirty and horrific energy mass in the void, Lin Zheyu felt it’s time to replenish the Demon Lake Energy.

The previously absorbed Demon Lake Energy contained useful energy that was about to be completely absorbed by the Source Power, leaving only useless, corrupt, and evil energy.

This energy is terrifying, berserk, filthy, and evil.

Even Lin Zheyu felt a bit uncomfortable entering it.

"First, optimize the cultivation technique, and then use Source Power for cultivation."

Lin Zheyu thought to himself.

With a slight movement of thoughts, he vanished from the void containing Demon Lake energy, appearing in a realm specifically for cultivation.

Sitting cross-legged floating in the void, a plethora of insights into array restrictions flashed through his mind.

A multitude of thoughts and ideas collided in his mind, bursting into countless inspirations about the Heavenly Deceit Skill.

As time passed.

These inspirations condensed into one step after another of a completely new Heavenly Deceit Skill cultivation technique.

Lin Zheyu moved his thoughts slightly, verifying the feasibility of the technique using the data in his consciousness.

Before long, more than ten days have passed.

During this period, Lin Zheyu stopped three times to cultivate to the limit of his body and gain Source Power.

The rest of the time, he was immersed in the iteration and optimization of the Heavenly Deceit Skill.

Whoosh~~~~

Lin Zheyu took a long breath and slowly opened his eyes, the fatigue in his gaze flickered away.

Even though able to instantly judge the feasibility of a cultivation technique using the data in his consciousness.

Still, iterative optimization of cultivation techniques exhausts the spirit immensely.

"For now, I will cultivate according to this version."

Lin Zheyu murmured softly.

The optimized Heavenly Deceit Skill only has one layer, leaving space for improvement in future iterations.
