Chapter 92 Jiangzhou Doesn't Require Divine Sense

His sea of ​​consciousness couldn't expand at all, because all the space around him was occupied by a much more powerful sea of ​​consciousness.

Without a doubt, it was the sea of ​​consciousness of the woman opposite him.

That was the real sea! Vast as the ocean, my cultivation was like a drop in the ocean, surrounded and lifted by the sea, I had no control over my own destiny.

Any wave that comes into the other person's mind can make them roll around with the wave, making them go left or right as they please.

The Emei disciple knelt down with a thud: "I don't know where I have offended you, senior. It must be my fault. Please, senior, have mercy and spare my life."

The young woman was slightly taken aback. Oh no, with this kind of start, there was no hope of getting to know each other anymore. The blind date was over before it even began.

The man kneeling before her was no different from the ministers kneeling before her in the imperial court. To think she could talk about true love with someone like that? She wouldn't even dare to dream of such a thing.

So, where did the error occur?

Divine consciousness!

It must be divine consciousness!

He released his divine sense, but he collapsed the moment he touched my sea of ​​consciousness. Alas.

So, does that mean even if I give up the throne, I still won't find true love?

Should I talk to a mortal? Mortals lack divine sense and cannot perceive my strength.

No, no, he has to be at least a cultivator.

The level of cultivation is not important, since no one in the world has a higher cultivation level than me anyway. But at least he should live a longer life, unlike ordinary people who can only live to be a hundred years old at most.

A disciple who enters the mortal world can only love one person in their lifetime, and that person cannot live too short a life.

He must spend at least a few hundred years of blissful time with me first, and then we can spend thousands or tens of thousands of years together after I help him ascend to the immortal realm.

The young woman took a deep breath. Since the negotiation couldn't go on, so be it. Her previously proactive and enthusiastic attitude instantly turned cold again: "Get up. You didn't offend me. I just have a question for you."

The Emei disciple dared not rise, remaining kneeling on the ground: "This junior will answer all questions, and will certainly satisfy the senior."

The woman said coldly, "Is there any place where cultivators don't like to use their divine sense to scan people indiscriminately? A place where people can hide their strength and lie in wait?"

Without hesitation, the Emei disciple replied, "Jiangzhou! Jiangzhou is located in the far southwest border region, nestled among towering mountains and distant immortals. There are many cultivators there, a mixed bag of all sorts. The martial arts world has established a rule: never release your divine sense, never pry into others' privacy, and only use your eyes, ears, nose, and mouth to perceive everything around you. Otherwise, all the cultivators in Jiangzhou will unite to attack you—"

As he was talking, he felt something was wrong. He looked up suddenly and realized that the young woman had vanished without a trace.

"call!"

The Emei disciple breathed a sigh of relief: "I've escaped with my life! Let's get out of here quickly. That terrifying woman seems to be heading to Jiangzhou. From now on, I'll stay far away from Jiangzhou."

In the evening, in the backyard of Jiangzhou government office, in the courtyard of Honglin's guest room.

Li Gu, Zhang Yi, Zheng Xiaodong, and Meng Ting all practiced their skills here.

Li Gu was testing Meng Ting's cultivation: "Junior Sister, how is your progress with the new [Love in the Mortal World Technique]?"

"It'll be quick!" Meng Ting smiled, her face flushed. "I think I'm more suited to this technique. It's much faster than the previous [Hidden Flower Heart Sutra]."

"That's the Common Path Demonic Scripture, not some Hidden Flower Heart Sutra," Li Gu corrected with a smile, then asked, "Show me a palm strike."

Meng Ting assumed a fighting stance and casually threw a punch. Unexpectedly, the punch was quite powerful, swift and forceful. It seems that her body refinement stage is progressing very quickly.

"Huh? That's way too fast." Li Gu: "You used to be at least ten times slower in Flower Valley. What happened?"

Meng Ting grinned and pulled a small porcelain bottle from her pocket: "This is medicine that Senior Sister Hong gave me. She said it's called something like 'Body Tempering Pill,' which can transform into warm blood and qi to cleanse the skin and flesh, strengthen muscle resilience, and greatly reduce the time spent on daily meditation and weight-bearing body training. It won't damage your foundation if you take it long-term. She wants me to take one pill every day."

Li Gu covered his face: Holy crap! Joining the system is awesome! There's an endless supply of medicine since the Body Refining stage!

So, Senior Brother Zheng also has one?

He turned to look at Zheng Xiaodong, and sure enough, Zheng Xiaodong was also talking about this with Zhang Yi, whose expression was the same as his own.

People really can't be compared!

While Li Gu and Zhang Yi were struggling desperately for their lives, Zheng Xiaodong and Meng Ting were enjoying endless comforts in the government office. Oh, I really want to find them a job, the 996 kind, and let them take on a 30-year mortgage to see what happens—but no way, how could people in the system work 996? Mortgages are out of the question; direct housing allocation by the work unit is the norm.

Meng Ting: "Senior Brother Li? What's wrong? Your expression is so strange."

Li Gu stretched out his hands and grabbed Meng Ting's upper arms at the same time, saying with a serious expression, "Once the threat from the Demonic Sect is eliminated, you should ask Lord Hong to allocate an apartment for you. It should be in the best location in Jiangzhou, preferably next to Wangjiang Tower, so that we can avoid decades of hard work."

Meng Ting's face instantly turned red: "What?! You're saying I have to live in the same house as you?! I... we're not married... unmarried men and women shouldn't live together, otherwise... it would violate that rule..."

Just then, Honglin's voice rang out beside her: "Junior Sister, it's best not to get married. The most important thing in our sect's cultivation method is to focus on love, but marriage is the grave of love. Once married, love fades amidst the mundane realities of daily life, and your cultivation will stagnate. As your senior sister, I suggest you maintain a distant relationship with men, tease them occasionally, and also tease your own heart, to keep your love evergreen."

"Oh my!" Meng Ting was so startled by those words that she almost jumped up. "Senior sister, when did you get here?"

Honglin said calmly, "It's been there from the very beginning."

Meng Ting: "————,"

There's no point in arguing with a senior sister who has no connections.

Hong Lin's expression remained calm, but she uttered terrifying words: "I have some news to inform you, because this matter is closely related to your safety, which is why I'm telling you this specifically. I wouldn't tell outsiders. The Immortal Emperor has disappeared!"

"Huh?" Li Gu and Zhang Yi were both taken aback.

Zheng Xiaodong and Meng Ting were still dumbfounded and had no idea what Li Gu and Zhang Yi were so nervous about.

Li Gu asked in surprise, "Why? Was the Immortal Emperor assassinated or what?"

Honglin: "Who in this world could possibly plot against a Celestial Emperor? Everyone who wants her dead can only hope she ascends to the Celestial Realm soon; no one dares to lay a hand on her. She did it for some personal reasons—well, actually, there's nothing wrong with saying it—she wanted to find a man to be with. It wasn't convenient for the Celestial Emperor to do that, so she gave up the throne."

"Pfft!" Li Gu and Zhang Yi spat out their morning tea.
