"I have a question I'd like to ask. I have a friend with a talent that shields all her perceptions and gives her new ones, but she loses the ability to discern colors because of it. How can she restore this part of her perception..."
Lin Qianxuan was speaking about Gongsun Yue's situation regarding the Purpose of Death.
In fact, he had previously searched for related information on the Otherworld Bureau's forum but hadn't found an answer.
He originally wanted to ask Jiang Mengli, but he'd troubled her so much already that it was hard to broach the subject again for the time being.
Of course, the main reason was that Chen Long'Er is Jiang Mengli's student. If he went to ask about another girlfriend of his, and Jiang Mengli found out and became upset, that would be troublesome.
His emotional intelligence wasn't that low.
So at that moment, he decided to ask Human Dao to see if this senior could provide a solution.
Upon hearing Lin Qianxuan's question, Human Dao quickly gave an answer.
"Based on your description, she hasn't lost her perception of colors. Instead, her perception of colors should be stronger than before," Human Dao answered. "It's just that she has some mental blocks, which is why she doesn't want to see the world as it is. The way to solve this problem is for her to completely let go of the past, or you can try to use a magic technique to block some of her memories."
"A psychological reason?"
Hearing this, Lin Qianxuan thought that Human Dao's words made sense.
When he used the Purpose of Death, he could see colors, yet Gongsun Yue couldn't.
This could only mean that she had added some obstacles for herself.
However, now that the world is at peace, he thought that if he cared for her a bit more and they lived together for a period of time, the shadows in her heart would gradually dissipate, and she would naturally get better.
.....
Leaving the Human Dao space, Lin Qianxuan was teleported back inside the Otherworld Bureau.
At this moment, there was still a little time before Chen Long'Er got off work, so Lin Qianxuan wasn't in a hurry and took out the dragon scale for research.
This dragon scale wasn't large, slightly smaller than his palm, and was golden jade in color throughout.
Holding it, Lin Qianxuan felt a strong urge to eat it.
A hunger even stronger than when he saw Thunder Lingzhi.
However, he restrained himself and tried to simulate it using the Illusionary Artifact technique.
[Three Thousand True Essences.]
"It can actually be done?"
The Illusionary Artifact needs three thousand True Essences plus some Divine Energy to simulate this dragon scale.
However, speaking of which.
Although Lin Qianxuan usually spent billions of True Essences, three thousand True Essences were no small number.
You must know, one True Essence equals ten billion Spiritual Essences, and purely in terms of effect, it's even stronger.
This is much more exaggerated than duplicating the Emperor Sword back then.
What mystery does this dragon scale hold that requires so many True Essences to simulate?
Lin Qianxuan immediately had the Illusionary Artifact simulate it.
The True Essences vanished, and a massive amount of Divine Energy was consumed. Before long, the Illusionary Artifact transformed into a piece of golden dragon scale.
Current Illusionary Artifact: Dragon Scale.
Function: [Enlightenment: Activating the dragon scale's True Intent can enhance the user's comprehension and brain computational power.]
"Enhances comprehension?"
Lin Qianxuan injected some Divine Energy into the dragon scale simulated by the Illusionary Artifact in his hand, and instantly, the dragon scale emitted a faint golden glow.
This light enveloped Lin Qianxuan, and he murmured, "Why do I feel like there's no change?"
He thought for a moment and then tried to operate the "Unrestrained Divine Skill."
Once the cultivation technique was operated, he suddenly realized something was odd.
"This operational route seems like it can be further optimized, these few places overlap, greatly reducing efficiency, and there are even omissions... My acupoints and physique are different from those of the Qingling World, these operational methods don't suit me at all, they're too rough, operating Qi and Blood with Divine Energy is absolutely feasible, why separate them? It wastes energy, Spiritual Power can also be included to speed up nurturing efficiency..."
With a cultivation technique he'd used countless times before, he now saw an abundance of disharmony.
One spark of inspiration after another burst forth, and Lin Qianxuan made repeated fine-tunings to the cultivation technique.
He made adjustments to best fit his current circumstances.
Qi and Blood, Divine Energy, and Spiritual Power were fully mobilized by Lin Qianxuan.
The Qi and Blood washed over to break down originally discordant structures, swiftly refined Divine Energy to mend them, and Spiritual Power further reinforced them.
In this way, Lin Qianxuan's body refinement efficiency increased by about three times compared to before.
With various boosts, his cultivation speed was already quite fast, and now with this modification, it was even significantly improved.
Even Lin Qianxuan himself was astonished.
This was no longer simply the so-called "Immortal Divine Body Skill" or mere "Qilin Body Tempering Skill."
Lin Qianxuan immediately named it the "Three Elements Body Refining Technique."
The dragon scale's golden glow continued to shine.
This thing truly consumed a lot of Divine Energy, or more accurately, it had a high efficiency of energy consumption, and could be driven by Spiritual Power or Qi and Blood energy as well.
However, Lin Qianxuan had plenty of Divine Energy, so he was able to sustain it.
"Let's toss in a billion True Essences to try strengthening it."
With a thought, Lin Qianxuan's number of True Essences decreased by a billion.
The light on the dragon scale became more concentrated, further increasing its consumption of Divine Energy.
The inspiration in Lin Qianxuan's mind flashed even more frequently.
He tried recalling the "Little World Technique" from back then and suddenly felt a little enlightened.
"Should I toss in two billion True Essences and see?"
Another two billion True Essences went in, and the enlightenment effect of the dragon scale rose significantly again.
In an instant, Lin Qianxuan actually felt like he somewhat understood the "Little World Technique."
He could even follow its structure upwards, trying to solve some problems.
"Might as well throw in a hundred billion True Essences and see!!"
In a split second, Lin Qianxuan was left with only 547 billion True Essences.
At the same time, the golden light on the dragon scale grew much denser and expanded significantly.
Lin Qianxuan revisited the "Little World Technique," and suddenly, he understood a lot more.
"So that's how it is. The seemingly conflicting structure was designed to generate a new reaction, and the extended part of the structure is for buffering, it's so simple, why couldn't I understand it before..."
The difference between a clever mind and a not-so-clever one turned out to be this vast.
Lin Qianxuan tossed another ten billion True Essences for the [Enlightenment] function.
"The efficiency of strengthening has dropped significantly, has it reached its peak?"
Lin Qianxuan seemed to have an epiphany.
The current enhancement is similar to using [Rebirth] to strengthen the inherent functions of the myriad phenomena, with very low efficiency.
No matter how much True Essence is used, it makes no significant impact; this is the limit of the Divine Soul possessed by the myriad phenomena itself.
After pondering, Lin Qianxuan attempted to have the myriad phenomena replicate a piece of Dragon Scale material.
Theoretically, if the myriad phenomena could simulate Dragon Scale, it should be able to replicate Dragon Scale material.
Just like simulating the Emperor Sword, it could directly replicate the Divine Iron used to make the Emperor Sword.
Simply manufacturing a Dragon Scale does not consume Spiritual Essence or True Essence.
It only consumes Divine Energy.
A large reserve of Divine Energy was directly consumed by the myriad phenomena, and a new Dragon Scale appeared in front of Lin Qianxuan.
Holding it in his hand, he did not feel the impulse to eat it.
Infusing Divine Energy, the Dragon Scale did not emit light.
"Is it missing that trace of True Intent? So the reason the myriad phenomena require so much True Essence to simulate is because it's trying to mimic the True Intent?"
Lin Qianxuan thought deeply.
From this perspective, the Dragon Scale itself is not important; what matters is the True Intent or Rule Power stored within it.
And what the myriad phenomena simulate is simply this True Intent.
It operates merely according to the Dragon Scale's pattern.
He tapped on this Dragon Scale.
Lin Qianxuan felt that its strength was no different from Divine Iron.
After all, it was also a material capable of carrying True Intent.
Lin Qianxuan glanced back at the original piece of scale and put it away directly.
He decided to try refining it later.
Then, Lin Qianxuan used the Dragon Scale simulated by the myriad phenomena to make a series of fine adjustments to his own cultivation technique.
There were flaws in the Visualization Technique; the Divine Martial he usually employed also had areas for improvement, and those Spirit Arts did not completely suit him either. Given his current state, he could afford to increase the output power even more, and even the Spirit Absorption Technique itself could be adjusted to better suit him.
People are different from one another.
No cultivation technique can perfectly fit everyone.
Even what suits you at one moment might not suit you the next.
Lin Qianxuan now somewhat understood the reason for the Dragon Head's strength.
He has a super perceptive brain that can constantly summarize and fine-tune itself.
This means he virtually never takes a wrong path.
He always walks on the path best suited for himself.
Anything he learns, he masters instantly, then it becomes a magic technique uniquely his own.
The Dragon Bloodline itself enhances learning ability, and with such an innate divine power, if he doesn't take off, who can?
"Speaking of which, what exactly is my innate divine power?"
Lin Qianxuan recalled that hint of scarlet True Flame, feeling some curiosity in his heart.
Unfortunately, he didn't dare to trigger it recklessly now, for fear of falling into a slumber once again given his current spiritual strength.
In the evening, Chen Long'Er finished work.
Lin Qianxuan found her, and they had a meal together in the cafeteria, during which he shared about his trip to Pinghai.
Chen Long'Er quietly listened without speaking.
Lin Qianxuan could tell she was actually a bit anxious inside.
She was not satisfied with the pace of her own power growth, considering Lin Qianxuan already possessed Celestial Power and could fight in the war zone, while she was only at the initial stage of Core Formation.
What could Lin Qianxuan do?
Advise her not to work so hard?
Of course not.
Lin Qianxuan's job was to support her unconditionally.
Having a goal is a good thing.
It's better than being confused and not knowing what to do.
After finishing the meal and saying goodbye to Chen Long'Er, Lin Qianxuan took five minutes to return to Cai County.
Now, the distance from Kyoto to Longjiang City was truly as close to him as a stroll outside.
Back home, Lin Qianxuan set up voicemail on his phone and immediately commenced his traversal.
-----------------
Qingling World.
It had been more than three months since Lin Qianxuan last left.
The reconstruction work in Kyoto was almost complete.
However, the focus here was now more on livelihood recovery and population growth.
Undertake some basic construction.
After all, an entire world of only eighteen thousand people can't really accomplish much.
When Lin Qianxuan found Gongsun Ying, she was cultivating at the Imperial Palace's Martial Arts Arena.
Nearly a year had passed since defeating the Foul God.
For her, possessing the Endless Divine Sea, her strength was enough to bring about a qualitative change.
Just as Gongsun Ying was throwing a punch, Lin Qianxuan directly used his Body Technique, suddenly appearing in front of her, then exchanged punches with her.
Boom~!
Divine Energy clashed, and the aftermath spread out.
The nearby female officer was stunned, exclaiming, "An assassin!"
Gongsun Ying felt a bit surprised, but upon recognizing it was Lin Qianxuan, she immediately stopped the female officer from using Divine Machine Communication.
Then, she suppressed the joy of reunion in her heart, looking at Lin Qianxuan, she said, "Would the lord like to spar with me?"
Lin Qianxuan smiled and extended his right hand, saying, "I'll let you use one hand."
Being looked down upon like this by Lin Qianxuan, Gongsun Ying naturally showed a displeased face, immediately saying, "Be careful, my lord."
As her voice fell, she simultaneously employed her Body Technique and attacked.
