Starting to Gain Experience from Push-Ups-Chapter 503 - 297: Master Level Meditation and Mona Consciousness
The result was that the enemy not only picked it, but also turned the Poison Fruit into Jadescent Nectar right in front of him, drinking it with great enjoyment.
Even let out a satisfied burp.
"This is outrageous—"
Xiao Linye roared crazily in his heart.
But on the surface, he still maintained the dignity of the Family Head, his face as calm as an ancient well.
Only the slightly trembling fingertips betrayed the intense emotions surging inside him.
The members of the Xiao Family standing below keenly sensed the sudden change in the Family Head’s aura.
One by one, they were silent as cicadas in winter, even breathing more lightly, fearing they might provoke this moody Family Head.
They didn’t know what had happened, only feeling the atmosphere in the ancestral hall suddenly turn as heavy as a mountain.
.................
Half an hour later, in the buffet restaurant of Yuehu Hotel.
Fang Cheng was sitting with his mother, uncle, and grandfather, enjoying a sumptuous breakfast.
He was devouring the food rapidly, sweeping everything on the plate as though a storm had passed. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
The astounding amount of food and the speed at which he ate caused the guests at the neighboring table to click their tongues in surprise.
"Achoo!"
Fang Cheng suddenly turned his head, sneezing loudly away from the table.
He then rubbed his nose, muttering inwardly:
"Strange, why are so many people thinking of me?"
"Chengcheng, did you catch a cold?"
Li Biyun immediately put down her chopsticks, looking at him with concern:
"The weather’s been changing a lot these days, with big temperature differences between morning and evening. You should wear more clothes when exercising, don’t take it lightly just because you’re young. A cold doesn’t feel good."
Fang Cheng, shoving beef fried rice into his mouth, replied indistinctly:
"Got it, Mom, next time I’ll wear an extra layer when jogging..."
Li Dingjian, at his side, looked at his nephew’s body, sturdier even than a tiger’s, and secretly pouted, thinking to himself:
"Given Ah Cheng’s monstrous physique, if even he can catch a cold, then probably nobody else in the world deserves to live..."
Breakfast ended.
Fang Cheng used the excuse of feeling a bit tired after morning exercise to rest for a while and returned to the hotel room alone.
First, he took a hearty hot shower, washing away the sweat and unusual smoke smells.
Then he changed into clean, loose leisure wear, feeling much more refreshed.
In the room, sunlight streamed through the large floor-to-ceiling window, falling softly on the carpet.
Tiny dust particles floated in the air, gently dancing in the slanting light beams.
At this moment, without the tension and peril of practicing in the back mountain of Lingquan Temple, a rare sense of tranquility replaced it.
Fang Cheng sat cross-legged on the soft, comfortable bed, with a peaceful mindset and an unprecedentedly full spirit state.
Recalling that moment of inspiration when meditation ended earlier, mixed faintly with a tinge of malice.
It seemed that either someone or something, in some way, was trying to find and locate him.
On his way back to the hotel, he had been especially cautious of being followed but found no suspicious followers.
Fang Cheng speculated that this sudden anomaly might be related to the Golden Benba Bottle.
After all, he had just completely refined and fused its remaining Spiritual.
During this process, it’s possible he triggered some unknown restriction.
Or perhaps, caused a special resonance with other entities equally sensitive to the Golden Benba Bottle.
"Seems like it’s better not to visit places like temples too often in the future..."
Fang Cheng silently thought to himself.
Since the special training over these past three days had basically achieved its intended goal.
That patch of woods no longer held much value for him.
Frequent visits might instead expose his whereabouts, attracting unnecessary trouble.
Thinking this, Fang Cheng steadied himself, deciding not to dwell on it further.
The most important thing now was to also upgrade the Meditation Skill.
Just 3 experience points left to level up, perfect timing to seize the opportunity.
Fang Cheng adjusted his breathing, gradually closing his eyes, letting his consciousness settle down.
Soon, he once again entered that piece of Consciousness Space belonging to him.
This time, when he "looked" at the Spiritual Fire, he found it had significantly changed compared to before.
The flame no longer swayed ceaselessly like before, but instead became exceptionally stable, quietly suspended in the endless darkness.
It burned brighter, more solid, the light it emitted more intense, and with greater penetration.
Thus illuminating more of the Consciousness Space, forming a larger Light Domain.
Those golden light spots that once wandered and burst frequently within the flame.
Now had already completely merged into the flame body, indistinguishable from it.
Representing the Spiritual of the Golden Benba Bottle, they combined perfectly with the bluish symbolizing Fang Cheng’s self-will, and the Red True Qi transformed from physical vitality.
As a result, the entire cluster of flames presented a magnificent and sacred red-golden color.
This red-golden flame held no trace of clutter or frenzy, filled with exuberant vitality, extremely yang and firm aura.
Like the rising sun at dawn breaking over the eastern horizon, its rays dispel all haze and darkness.
Fang Cheng’s mind immersed in the immensely peaceful meditation state.
As the spiritual of the Black Sect Holy Object was thoroughly digested and absorbed, all those phenomena that once troubled him vanished like smoke.
No grand and eerie chanting sounds echoed thunderously in his mind.
Nor were there any demonic visions attempting to corrode his psyche.
Most importantly, the Spiritual Fire became more pure and efficient, avoiding the previous abnormal state consumption that required a large amount of Spiritual Energy.
Fang Cheng’s breath was steady and tranquil, faintly discernible.
Nor did his body, as in the past, seem uncontrollable in releasing blazing Red True Qi when meditating.
Everything happened so smoothly.
The clock on the wall, its hour and minute hands moved slowly and steadily on the dial.
The sunlight’s path within the room also silently changed, from the corner of the carpet, slowly creeping to the edge of the bed.
Just as the hands were about to point towards noon at 12 o’clock.
In Fang Cheng’s consciousness world, the red-gold Spiritual Fire suddenly surged, bursting out with light more dazzling than the noon sun.
This light did not expand outward but instead condensed inward.
Making the core of the flame brighter, as if birthing a true Star within.
An indescribable sense of clarity and understanding instantly filled Fang Cheng’s entire mind.
Immediately after, the interface before him lit up abruptly, blossoming with brilliant radiance.
[Congratulations, through relentless effort, your Skill has leveled up, successfully reaching Master Level]
[Meditation Level 2 (0/500)]
[Acquired Enhancement Reward, Skill Effect "Spiritual Resonance"]
Fang Cheng opened his eyes, with two substantial red-golden rays flashing in his eyes and then retracting.
His face beamed with uncontainable delight.
"Master Level Meditation, finally achieved!"
Fang Cheng’s heart was filled with excitement.
From the initial ignorance in meditation, to lighting the Spiritual Fire in deep waters, to now advancing to the Master Level.
This path was full of hardships and dangers, yet brought him unimaginable growth and transformation.
Subsequently, Fang Cheng took a deep breath, calming his emotions.
Turning his gaze to the skill panel shining with light, he carefully examined the new effects brought by Master Level Meditation Skill.
[Spiritual Resonance]
[This ability is rooted in the universal empathy and emotional connection of humanity, representing a higher level of the Seventh Sense ’Mona Consciousness,’ and serves as the cornerstone of building a stable community and deep trust]
[When activating this ability, you may attempt to synchronize highly with the frequency of one or more selected targets’ consciousness. When successfully triggering spiritual resonance, an invisible link channel can be established between both parties]
[No matter how distant both parties are, this way allows sharing of sensory information, thoughts, emotions, and memory fragments, or engage in spiritual communication, offer mental soothing, or guide the self-awareness of the other party on a subconscious level]
[As the initiator of the ability, you act as a guiding lighthouse, possessing higher authority and control once the link is established. You may choose to enable bidirectional information sharing, or a one-way channel, projecting your consciousness into the target’s Spiritual Domain, unilaterally obtaining the target’s current surface thoughts or sensory information]
[The prerequisite for establishing a link is that the target holds a certain degree of trust, curiosity, or both parties share a strong emotional resonance point at some moment]
[Note, establishing the channel consumes a certain amount of Spiritual Energy, with the duration and stability depending on the total Spiritual Energy of both parties, and the depth of the Spiritual Link]
