Heart-Soul Sharing

"Fellow Daoist, please take this."

Inside the Song Mountain Restricted Grounds ancestral hall, Chen Yang was studying talisman techniques when an unfamiliar voice suddenly echoed in his mind, startling him.

Clack!

The next instant, he summoned his pitch-black armor for protection, gathering his focus and alertly checking his surroundings.

This gave little Yang Liu, who was currently meditating in the hall to draw in Qi, quite a fright.

She thought she had made a mistake in circulating her arts and angered the Immortal Venerable. She hurriedly knelt on the floor to apologize, "Yang Liu is dull-witted. Please calm your anger, Immortal Venerable. Please calm your anger..."

Yang Lingqing sensed the disturbance and rushed into the ancestral hall a few breaths later.

"Immortal Venerable, has a thief broken into our home?"

Chen Yang released his consciousness to search the area, but found nothing. Whether up or down the mountain, everything was as peaceful and safe as usual.

At this time, a message was transmitted into Chen Yang's mind along the connection between the Soul Flame and the cultivator's main body, and only then did he realize what had happened.

"This is... a cultivation insight Lingrui obtained!"

Realizing it was not an invasion, Chen Yang transmitted a thought to Yang Lingqing and also retracted the armor on his body.

"Li Yuande... this person seems to be that ancestor of the Li family. Mm... let me see what is inside this insight."

When this insight reached Chen Yang, it took the form of a small cluster of consciousness. The moment Chen Yang touched it, he could understand its contents.

Chen Yang peeled back the layers of this consciousness one by one.

"Twelve-Level Qi Gathering Ascension Essentials..."

"Treatise on Cultivation Insights into Myriad Arts..."

"Heart-Soul Stabilizing and Nurturing Method..."

"Five Core-Formation Secrets of Condensed Origin..."

Four massive texts rushed into his mind in a short span of time, but they did not make Chen Yang feel any complicated or lengthy exhaustion.

After Li Yuande knew he would certainly die, he began using his own Divine Sense to sort through this insight.

By the time it reached Chen Yang today, the contents of this insight were already extremely complete. The logic was also quite clear, allowing him to understand it at a glance.

If it were an ordinary human cultivator, fully comprehending this insight would not be easy. It would basically take many years.

But Chen Yang was not human. Strictly speaking, he should be considered a spiritual entity born of heaven and earth.

Therefore, the threshold this insight placed on human cultivators was almost non-existent to him, and he was able to decipher it very quickly.

A quarter of an hour later, Chen Yang withdrew his mind from this consciousness and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"Alas... such a heaven-sent genius was actually trapped in the Qi Gathering realm his entire life. It truly makes one sigh in pity!"

This insight of Li Yuande's was the essence obtained from his lifelong pursuit of the Dao.

For cultivators in the Qi Gathering realm, it was an unparalleled supreme treasure!

"Patriarch, is the Immortal Venerable truly not angry with me?"

Inside the ancestral hall, Yang Liu hid behind Yang Lingqing, looking fearfully at Chen Yang, who was currently glowing.

Yang Lingqing stroked her hair to comfort her. "Of course not. Just now, the Immortal Venerable merely had a sudden feeling during his cultivation. It has nothing to do with you."

At this time, the light on Chen Yang's body also dissipated.

He then looked at Yang Lingqing and, holding the mentality of giving it a try, transmitted the Twelve-Level Qi Gathering Ascension Essentials to her with a thought.

"Mmh!"

Yang Lingqing let out a muffled groan. She suddenly felt her head grow heavy and dizzy.

She immediately circulated the spirit pearl within her Sea of Consciousness, which allowed her awareness to gradually return to clarity.

"This is! The Immortal Venerable transmitting a method!"

The information of the Twelve-Level Qi Gathering Ascension Essentials gradually unfolded in her Sea of Consciousness. Yang Lingqing only glanced at it a few times before a flash of inspiration struck her mind. Gaining comprehension, she immediately sat cross-legged on a futon and entered a meditative trance.

Seeing this, Yang Liu also quickly sat down. After calming her emotions, she began to circulate the Qi-drawing method from the Nether-Spirit Dao-Seeking Scripture.

It had been nearly two years since Yang Lingqing broke through to the fourth level of Qi Gathering. Because she had to divide her attention to manage the household, her cultivation time was much less compared to Yang Lingrui and Yang Lingshu.

According to her own estimations, even with the help of consuming Spirit Liquid and the Immortal Venerable gathering Qi, it would take her at least another year to reach the peak of the fourth level at the fastest.

But now, suddenly obtaining these Ascension Essentials, she felt a sensation of supreme enlightenment.

When she circulated her cultivation method once again, it felt like she had divine aid. The Spiritual Qi entered her body and transformed into milky-white raindrops that fell into her Qi Mansion.

Two hours later, Yang Lingqing's realm directly reached the peak of the fourth level of Qi Gathering!

Opening her eyes, the first thing she did was bow toward Chen Yang.

"Yang Lingqing thanks the Immortal Venerable for bestowing the method!"

Seeing her cultivation soar, Chen Yang also sent out his consciousness to inspect her. After confirming there were no side effects, he knew that Yang Lingqing had gained a Fated Chance for an Epiphany after receiving the Twelve-Level Qi Gathering Ascension Essentials.

"It actually works!"

Chen Yang felt a surge of joy. He hadn't expected that this insight could truly be shared through the heart-soul connection between himself and the Yang family cultivators.

In this way, the future generations of the Yang family would be blessed.

With these Ascension Essentials as a guide, they would be able to avoid countless wrong paths in their Qi Gathering realm cultivation!

However, combining this with Yang Lingqing's initial reaction after receiving the transmitted thought, Chen Yang also understood that this kind of transmission with an immense amount of information placed certain requirements on the strength of a cultivator's Divine Sense.

If Yang Lingqing had not refined the spirit pearl in her Sea of Consciousness, she would have fainted entirely just now upon receiving the transmission.

Such massive information could very well cause damage to a cultivator's Sea of Consciousness. In the future, it would be safer to transmit the thoughts in separate volumes.

He looked again at Yang Liu, who was meditating to the side.

This little girl's aptitude and talent were quite average, but her advantage lay in her steady temperament. Since she started meditating to draw in Qi, she had proceeded step by step without rushing. She was a good seedling worth cultivating.

Now it was the third day since she successfully drew in Qi, and she had already unblocked her first Qi Node. If all went smoothly, she would be able to condense her Qi Mansion in less than two months.

This speed could be considered very astonishing.

Yang Liu's talent was only one level higher than Zhao Qi's. Back then, when Zhao Qi practiced the Zhou Tian method to gather Qi, it took him a full year and more to reach Qi Gathering.

And Yang Liu, under the enhancements of a Condensed Origin cultivation method and Qi gathering, shortened this process by several times.

Chen Yang emitted a tiny beam of green light that shone onto Yang Liu.

Just now, his sudden casting of a technique had frightened this little girl. She hurriedly knelt on the stone slabs, scraping the skin off her hands and knees.

Seeing this, Yang Lingqing shot a grateful look at Chen Yang. Then, she took advantage of the tail end of her Epiphany just now to consolidate her realm, preparing for a future breakthrough.

"Since Lingqing can do it, that old man should be fine too."

Chen Yang looked toward the direction of Sanglu Valley. In his mind, he separated the mid-to-late stage contents of the Twelve-Level Qi Gathering Ascension Essentials and projected them over using the Soul Flame as a link.

Elder Yu had just finished guiding Dai Wei's cultivation of the Hundred-Bones Body-Tempering Record. The moment he returned to his cave dwelling and sat down, he felt his mind clear, and a thought entered his mind.

"The Immortal Venerable transmits a thought!"

Elder Yu hurriedly stood up, thinking something had happened to the main family.

Once he calmed his mind, he realized that the Immortal Venerable had bestowed a method.

"Twelve-Level Qi Gathering Ascension Essentials?"

Elder Yu muttered silently in his heart, and then began to carefully read the contents.

At first, his expression was very stable, but after reading a few paragraphs, he couldn't stay calm anymore.

The deeper he read, the more excited the look on his face became.

By the time he finished reading the end, his hands were trembling, his excitement evident in his words and expressions.

He had originally suffered an injury that caused his realm to drop, and his path to the late stages was completely blocked off.

Before this, he had always thought that his Dao path was severed and his cultivation was hopeless.

But now, these Ascension Essentials stated that he still had the possibility of breaking through his realm again. How could he possibly remain calm?

As a cultivator fighting for his life against the heavens, having his Dao path severed was an extremely despairing matter. Only those who had experienced it could understand.

Elder Yu had resigned himself to his fate for over twenty years, yet now, because of the Immortal Venerable bestowing a method, he had a chance to turn things around!
