Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

After Gu Yun summoned the Scent Seeker, he naturally gained some of his talents, including this special sense of smell.

The sense of smell in the Scent Seeker's Journey is not simply about smelling odors, after all, the world is not just about fragrance.

What he smelled was actually 'beauty' and 'essence'.

More accurately, it means developing a certain human perception to its extreme, thereby 'finding' a level that others cannot reach.

Mind, ability, desire, emotion, will, and even the soul.

Those who seek out fragrances can easily distinguish these things.

This ability is of a very high level; it can be said that no matter how well the opponent hides it, they will become extremely vulnerable in front of Xunxiangxing.

It cannot be hidden or concealed.

"What a terrifying power."

Xunxiangxing wasn't good at fighting, but Gu Yun found this absolute lock-on quite troublesome.

【A Journey to Find Fragrance】

Race: Divine Child, Awakened One Incarnation

Spiritual Rank: 60

Talents: Imperial Fragrant Mountain, Glazed Bodhi, Dream Binding and Soul Guiding, Dance of the Flying Apsaras

There are two races in the Fragrance Seekers: one is the Divine Child, and the other is called the Awakened One Incarnation.

Through the information provided by the scroll, Gu Yun learned that Xunxiangxing had not inherited the power of ecology, nature, and the world's will, so his spiritual level was only around 60.

In terms of rank and combat strength alone, Xunxiangxing is not much stronger than Hongye and Banruo, and may even be inferior to them.

However, Xunxiangxing himself is not the type of person who is good at fighting.

His abilities are more supportive, similar to those of Enmusubi or Shirei, who protect and bless deities in a certain field.

"Yuxiang Mountain is my unique barrier, similar to a small world."

The Fragrant Mountain of Xunxiangxing comes from his 'hometown' in his memory. It contains various materials and instruments that he uses to make incense and perfume, as well as a wealth of knowledge about the Fragrant Clan.

The materials used are renewable, formed from the divine power emanating from Xunxiangxing, and possess the characteristic of being inexhaustible.

"A heart of crystal and a body of enlightenment."

This is the true power represented by the Path of Fragrance Seeking, namely, the 'Awakened One'.

In this world, the enlightened one is generally considered to be Shakyamuni, an extremely powerful living god.

Legend has it that Brahma, one of the twelve heavens, descended to earth the most times, and the Buddha of this world was one of them.

“I am not good at fighting,” Xunxiangxing said, “I can only provide you with daily assistance, Lord Guyun.”

The glass heart strengthens Gu Yun's will and deepens his perseverance.

The Bodhi Body represents the integration and mastery of cultivation techniques.

The two, combined with the mind and body, can greatly improve Gu Yun's usual cultivation speed, as well as his efficiency in learning and researching spells.

Moreover, everyone within the Fragrant Mountain domain of the Fragrance Seeking Journey will receive this 'Awareness Buff' without any side effects.

"The effects of others are far inferior to those of Lord Gu Yun."

“If you leave my side again and only use the incense I make,” Xunxiangxing said, “then the effect will be even worse.”

The power of the Fragrant Mountain of Xunxiangxing can be attached to the incense and perfume he makes, so that people can receive the nourishment and help of fragrance even when they are far away from him.

"Very bad..."

Gu Yun asked, "How bad is it?"

According to Xunxiangxing, if Gu Yun's efficiency is 100%, then the efficiency of others in Yuxiang Mountain is only 30%.

"Simply using incense doesn't even achieve 10% efficiency."

In the eyes of Xunxiangxing, this can basically be considered a failure.

However, this is from the perspective of a fragrance seeker who pursues the perfection of incense. But for ordinary people, even a 10% improvement is incredible.

It's important to understand that 10% doesn't mean that people's learning and research speed will increase by one-tenth.

In fact, even if the effects of incense are only this much, it can still enhance the thinking and perception of ordinary people by 3 to 5 times.

Based on this calculation, the Yuxiangshan domain would be 10 to 15 times larger, while Guyun would be at least 30 times larger.

"It shouldn't be calculated like that."

Gu Yun felt that his talent was already quite good, so to improve it by 30 times would be a bit exaggerated: "But improving it by five or six times on my original basis is definitely not a problem."

Chapter 151 Dance of the Flying Apsaras

"Binding dreams and guiding souls?"

"My fragrances come in many varieties, some of which can be used in battle," Xunxiangxing said, "and some special incense that can manipulate people's hearts and make their souls fall into depravity."

Considering that Xunxiangxing is not good at combat, this talent probably can't be used in combat either.

Manipulating people's hearts and enslaving their souls—Gu Yun couldn't think of any situation in which he would need such NTR skills.

Gu Yun could deal with ordinary people with a single word of magic.

The powerful demons could not be restrained by the fragrance of the Scent Seekers.

'This ability seems rather useless.'

Gu Yun commented: 'However, the "Searching for Fragrance" only describes a part of it.'

Xunxiangxing offers more than just these two types of incense.

Given time, he could create incense that could satisfy almost any need of Gu Yun.

"Is the Dance of Flying Apsaras a kind of dance?"

"Not."

Xunxiangxing explained, "The Dance of Flying Apsaras is not a dance; it is more like a ritual to guide people to heaven."

Based on the laws established by the Path of Fragrance Seekers, they manipulate fragrance to depict a scene of gods and Buddhas welcoming them from all directions, thereby enabling those trapped in bottlenecks to achieve enlightenment.

“In words that you, Lord Gu Yun, can understand,” Xun Xiangxing said, “I can use the Dance of Flying Apsaras to elevate the spiritual status of others.”

"Upgrade your spiritual level?"

Gu Yun asked seriously, "Is there any price to pay?"

He was not surprised by Xunxiangxing's extraordinary ability. Instead, he seriously asked Xunxiangxing what price was required for this flying dance ritual.

"There is no cost, only a limited number of uses within a short period of time."

Xun Xiangxing sensed Gu Yun's concern. He suppressed his joy and smiled, "Moreover, this ability is not something that can be improved without limit."

"As for the upper limit, the spirit level can only be increased to 60 at most."

Next, Xunxiangxing carefully explained the effects of the Flying Dance and the suitable groups of people to Guyun.

"In other words, the main function of the Flying Dance is to break through limitations, rather than to enhance abilities."

"Yes, Lord Gu Yun."

Xunxiangxing said, "If Lingge is listed using data, it can be divided into a level of 10 points."

The improvement in spirit level during the journey of seeking fragrance is not just 1 or 2 points, but an increase of the entire level.

Take an ordinary person like Shizuka Hiratsuka as an example.

The girl lacks the spiritual sense to see ghosts, and unless she relies on certain tools, she will never generate spiritual power within her body.

In terms of data, Hiratsuka Shizuka's spirit level is 0, not even 1.

The same goes for Nao Hayasaka.

Both of them are ordinary mortals.

For ordinary people to gain spiritual abilities, the simplest way is to come into contact with a curse, and then pay the price of a drastic change in personality, being reborn as a demon.

While this method can certainly elevate one's spiritual standing, it involves a personality shift, leaving the self incomplete, as if one has become a completely different person.

Anyone with a sound mind would never choose this path.

Even if it does happen, 99% of the time it's due to coercion or deception.

For this reason alone, Xunxiangxing's method of enhancing spiritual power without side effects can be described as nothing short of a miracle.

"Could it be that I... I can see ghosts too?"

Upon hearing the effects of the Flying Dance, Hiratsuka Shizuka instantly became excited.

The girl had always admired the spiritual senses of psychics like Gu Yun.

They can see ghosts and observe the true nature of this world.

Although breathing techniques are not bad in terms of combat power, they are far inferior to magic in terms of functionality.

"It's just seeing ghosts, not including spiritual power or magic."

The quest for fragrance can elevate the spiritual level of others to a higher level.

Hiratsuka Shizuka was originally 0, so the next level up is 1.

Those like Tamaki Iijima, who already possessed a spirit level of 1 or higher but less than 5, saw their spirit level jump to 10 in one go, directly leaping over an entire level.

Its limit is for someone at level 50 in spirituality to reach the sixth stage.

"Seeing ghosts is enough!"

Hiratsuka Shizuka looked at Xunxiang with great anticipation, her eyes filled with the excitement of 'Let me go first'.

Jing Ke'ai: I've seen a ghost, what more could I ask for!

"The Dance of Flying Apsaras can only summon one person at a time, and it cannot be used again for at least seven days after each use."

Therefore, the efforts of Xunxiangxing alone are insufficient to change the entire world.

You're talking about a spiritual revival?

Even if Xunxiangxing devoted all its time and energy to the Flying Dance, it would only be possible to turn tens of thousands of ordinary people into spiritual beings (1 Spirit Rank) in 1000 years.
