Chapter Ninety-Two Secret News
"For a cultivator, how to awaken the perception of power, we still don't understand very well. However, the role of perceptual power, I think, everyone present here has some experience." Fang Chang said, "Generally speaking, for martial artists who cultivate at the warrior level, what they awaken is perceptual power, while for cultivators who have reached the realm of true man, what they awaken is spiritual awareness."
" Ling Jue?" Fang Tian Nan was taken aback.
"That's right, it's spiritual awareness." Fang Zhang nodded and explained, "In fact, spiritual awareness is just a name, it's an upgraded version of sensory power, its effect is roughly the same as sensory power. You can think of it this way, the level of cultivators, from martial artists to true men, to masters, step by step promotion. And our awakening ability is also like this, from sensory power, to spiritual awareness, to divine consciousness..."
"The symbol of the realm of the Venerable, possessing divine consciousness, actually rose from the perception force advancement?" Fang Tian Nan suddenly discovered that there seemed to be a huge blueprint slowly unfolding before his eyes.
"So, you should be clear that the awakening of perceptual awareness is how important it is for a cultivator?" Master Mu Qing Shan said with a smile, "I can tell you here that the awakening of perceptual awareness has already made you different from other cultivators in the sect."
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Fang Tian Nan's mind, and he couldn't help but exclaim: "Could it be that only those who have awakened their sensory powers can cultivate to the realm of the Sect Master?"
"Heh, if you think so, it's not wrong either." Mu Qing Shan looked at Fang Tian Nan and said, "For the top figures of our three major sects, this is actually not a secret. Any cultivator, only when they reach the Tianyuan boundary before awakening their perception or spiritual awareness, will have a greater chance of breaking through to the Zongshi boundary."
In an instant, Fang Tiannan's mind flashed with the figures of Xiao Ruo, Di Jianming, and Han Guangyue.
"Of course, although this statement is somewhat absolute, you should be very clear that the number of masters in the mainland who have reached the realm of the grandmaster is extremely rare, right? Why is that?" Mu Qing Shan continued to say, "The conditions for entering the realm of the grandmaster are indeed too harsh."
Here is the translation:
"Speaking of which, Mu Qing Shan seemed to have recalled his own cultivation career, and a thoughtful expression spread across his eyes. He pondered for a long time before suddenly noticing that Fang Tian Nan was still standing in front of him. He couldn't help but reveal a hint of a smile, saying, "I'm not trying to make excuses for myself being unable to advance in rank. I'm just telling you a fact: compared to the rarity of Grandmasters, the number of True Humans at the Heavenly Yuan stage on the continent is still relatively high. Don't look at how our three major sects are flourishing in this area; compared to other large sects on the continent, Qing Yun Sect is just a small sect..."
Perhaps seeing the look on Fang Tiannan's face, as Mu Qingshan spoke, it was as if he had seen something unbelievable, sometimes curious, sometimes puzzled. Fang Zhang took advantage of the opportunity to interject and shouted: "Fang Tiannan."
"Oh, Elder Fang... " Fang Tian Nan couldn't help but come back to his senses. In his heart, a wave of emotion arose, his own composure was still not cultivated to perfection.
"What the Patriarch said, you will know in the not-too-distant future." Elder Fang explained, saying, "This time we came to find you, it's to tell you some things about your perception ability, and also to make arrangements for your next cultivation."
"Yes." Yun Chang also chimed in, "Generally speaking, awakening your perception has allowed you to surpass many of your fellow sect members. However, just because you've awakened your perception doesn't mean that your future cultivation will necessarily reach the level of a Grandmaster... Just like us few, our Sect Master is slightly better off, at least reaching the late stage of the Tianyuan realm, and can still strive for more. As for me and Fang Chang, we're basically hopeless in this lifetime..."
"How could that be?" Fang Tian Nan hastily spoke up, saying, "Elder Yun and Elder Fang, the two of you are absolutely at the pinnacle of power within our sect."
What Fang Tian Nan said was not nonsense.
Regarding the strength of various elders in the sect, among the disciples within Qingyun Sect, it's not like they are completely unaware. Take Yun Long Lao for example, because he himself was more inclined to study some obscure aspects when he was young, even if his combat power is unknown to others. However, with his current position in the sect and his strength reaching the late stage of Di Yuan realm, there are still many rumors among the disciples.
"Haha, that's the favor you young ones have shown me...” Yun Lao heard this and only had a faint smile on his face as he said, “Speaking of which, at my age, I really shouldn't be taking action anymore. This time, both the Sect Master and Fang Zhengzhi took action, while I remained in the sect."
"This is arranged by the sect leader for you to stay and guard the main camp." Fang Zhanglao couldn't help but interject, adding a sentence.
Fang Tian Nan couldn't help but smile slightly.
It really didn't show, Fang Zhanglao, Yun Zhanglao and others, who are usually almost all supported by the disciples of the sect, among them, they would also make fun of each other like most ordinary disciples.
。。。。。。
Under the leadership of Mu Qing Shan Zong, Fang Zhanglao and Yun Zhanglao, these three people, told Fang Tiannan about many things, about the cultivation of perceptual power. This is something that is rarely mentioned in the books of the sect. To put it bluntly, a sect like Qingyun Sect has almost no reliable classics in terms of cultivating perceptual power.
The entire Qingyun Sect, plus Fang Tian Nan, has only five people awakened their perception.
It's like Mu Qing Shan Zong, when he was young, he relied on the elders of the previous generation to orally pass down their experiences and continuously cultivate his perceptual powers. Now with Fang Tian Nan, it is still the same.
"In fact, the three of us can help you, not many." Finally, Fang Chang Lao spoke up, "The three of us are all directly awakened spiritual awareness when we were in the True Person realm. On the contrary, that inner door disciple in the sect, like you, awakened to the perception of power from the stage of transforming energy."
"What's different about this one?" Fang Tian Nan asked.
"Of course, it's different." Elder Fang explained, "We didn't experience the emergence of spiritual awareness during the stage of transforming energy. What I reminded you of earlier were all about your cultivation insights into spiritual awareness after reaching the Human Yuan stage."
"In other words, I won't be needing these means for the time being?" Fang Tian Nan caught on.
"It's not up to us three to decide whether it's useful or not." Mu Qing Shan added, "It mainly depends on your own judgment. If you think it's useful, you can try it carefully. Also, we will arrange for you to meet with that inner door disciple and discuss how to handle it together."
"Oh." Fang Tian Nan couldn't help but nod his head. At least, there was another disciple who could discuss things with him. This way, the feeling of loneliness in Fang Tian Nan's heart, due to being the only one to awaken his sensory power, could be alleviated a bit. If not, the entire sect would have only him as a disciple who had awakened his sensory power. At first thought, it was indeed a great achievement. However, immediately following that, a feeling of having no direction would arise.
Although it is said that cultivating a path is originally lonely.
However, having a companion on the journey and being understood and recognized by many people is what Fang Tian Nan wants.
Subconsciously, Fang Tian Nan began to look forward to that awakened inner disciple with a keen sense of perception.
